Prattleboro Athletics should win ball
game Saturday afternoon and so smiled
accordingly and four large runs came
pattering over the plate in the 18th
inning and gave the Brattleboro nine

knights of Columbus at League park
in Springfield. Incidentally this was
the second extra inning game these two
teams have put up the Athletics on the
winning side each tine.
Up until the fatal 18th, the game
was a hurting duel between Mccarthy

moments. Both pitchers went the en-

NEW REVOLUTION WILL BE CRUSHED
 DECLARES CAN|IU N.
Says Force of 15,oOO Will Be Sent to
 Reinforce FederaIs in Chihuahua
(El Paso Times)

Members of the Mexican Congress do not take Angeles any more serious ly than they do Villa, and they are ity in the state of Chihuahua will be stopped within a month
 This was. the opinion voiced last night by Col. Jose T. Cantu, deputy in the Mexican Congress, who was at the Paso del Norte while on hiS way from Mexico to MeXicalli. He is a brother of Governor Esteban Cantu of Lower California.
 '"The government is now spending all of it's energy in meeting the pres ent situation in the state of Chihua- hua, and between 12,000 and 15,000 troops will be dispatched within. a short time to reinforce the govern ment troops now in the field,'' he said. Nf Castro Will Stay
 General Castro will not be relieved of the command, but will continue as commander in the state of Chihuahua and will be aided by General Diguez.
 "The Mexican Congress knows that the United States is friend of the Mexican government, but it knows also that Villa is being aided in his campaign by many Americans Tn my own state there are no reb. els and no Villista activity Every. thing is prosperous and farmers are in good shape. ! am on my way there now on business and my alternate is occupying my seat in the House oi Representatives" | Colonel Cantu came through from Mexico City in three days. While CT route he received a telegram from lGeneral J. Barragan, chief of staff ol the Mexican army at Mexico City, that everything along the railroad lines was in good shape.
 | ., Proposed Sale Dream l When asked about the sentiment oi the Mexican Congress in regard to the sale of Lower California to the United States, Colonel Cantu laughed hearti ly, saying:4 lua. a, ss -.,s,
 The proposed sale of Lower Cali fornia is a dream. It is just like ask ing the United States. to sell the Philippine Islands or some other part of the country
 Colonel Cantu is a young man, and has a decided military bearing. He resembles his famous brother, the gov ernor.
 He was met at the Paso del Norte last evening by A. Ruiz Sandoval, vice consul at the Fl Paso Mexican con sulate. He will leave this morning for Mexicali.
 Both Colonel Cantu and MT. Sando val declared that Chihuahua City was quiet and that the city was in the hands of the federals as usual.

MILLION DOLLAR MINING
 SUIT FINALLY SETTLED
Supreme Court Hands Down Decision in Famous GIeeson-CostelIo Contro- versy in Cochie County.

Final settlement of what has been known in Arizona as the 'Million-Dol- lar Mining Suit in which John Glee- son sought to establish a partnership in mining claims of the Courtland dis trict, in Cochise county, in which Mrs. Mary M. Costello, widow of Martin Costello, was defendant, was secured last Friday when the Supreme Court of Arizona denied the motion of the plaintiff for rehearing. The case has been before the state courts for the past six or seven years and has attracted wide attention through out the state.
 The action of the Supreme Court makes the decision final in favor of Mrs. Costello. Word of the decision was received in Tombstone yesterday from Phoenix Gleeson brought the suit against Mrs. Costello, after the death of her husband, claiming that he was partner with Costello in the ownership of the Casey group of claims near Courtland. In the first trial in the Superior Court of this county Gleeson won the suit. It was appealed to the Supreme court of the state, where the decision of the lower court was reversed in it's entirety. It went to the Supreme court the second time on the motion for rehearing, which was denied Friday-Prospector

WORK COMMENCES ON
 BIC DIVERSION DAM

PHOENIX, June 3.-Work started yesterday on the construction of a diversion, dam on the Gila river, 24 miles north of Gila Bend and eight miles south of Arlington, the purpose of which is to obtain water for irri- igation of 72,0O0 acres of land in that section, according to a statement made by Sheriff John Montgomery, who has just returned from Gila Bend.
 The work is being done by a con- struction company of Los Angeles, the same builders, who, 30 years ago, built dam at that point for former Governor Wolfley and Peoria, H., cap. italists. The old dam washed out and was replaced with a seecond, which met a like fate. Later the project reached a subject of lengthy litiga. tion. which finally was decided against Wolfley and in favor of the Peoria capitalists.
 The contract for the new dam in. wolves consideration of $700,0O0, said Sheriff Montgomery, who reported having seen 15O mules unloaded at Gila Bend for the work, which com menced yesterday.
 It is understood the county has agreed to lay bridge over the dam thus making crossing of the Gila.
 The completion of the project, it was stated. will add $1O,OOO,OOO to the valuation of Maricopa county.

ADJUTANT GENERAL
 OF ARIZONA WINS INN5
 su!I F0R DAMAGES
By Supreme Court Decision Republi- can Must Pay Him Sum
 of $eooo

PHOENIX, June 4.-Colonel c. w. Harris, state adjutant general, today won his libel suit against the Arizona Republican of this city, when the ,Su- preme court upheld the decision of the lower court awarding Colonel Harris $6O00.
 The adjutant general, who originally had sued for $50O0 exemplary dam ages and $5000 actual damages, based his action on an article in the news paper, which he held cast aspersions on some of his reports.
 Decision Interests Hunt
 Former Governor George w. P. Hunt will not get the increased salary for which he sued, according to the decision of the Supreme court handed down today.
 The court held that, according to the constitutional provision forbidding the increase of an officials salary while he is in office, the advanced sti- pend cannot be paid Hunt
 When Hunt was elected the gover- nor's salary was S4000, and during his administration it was raised by an act of the legislature to $6500. The governor accepted payments at the old rate while he was in office. and then brought mandamus proceedings to compel the state auditor topay him the difference.
 Soldiers Home Thursday
 Five hundred returned Arizona sol diers, aboard special train en route to Fort Bliss, Texas, for demobiliza- ton, will reach there Thursday after noon, according to telegram receiv- ed here today from Captain W. Get singer of Phoenix, one of the officers aboard.
 The telegram said:
 Arizona train with 800 men passed through Kansas City at II o'clock Tuesday night. Received great wei come in middle west and from Red Cross throughout trip. Men all are we'll and in best of spirits. Will reach Fort Bliss Thursday afternoon about three."
 Advices received from Governor Campbell Monday said that the train ! had left Camp Upton Sunday and would arrive at Fort Bliss Friday.
 Wiley Hands Down Opinions
 In answer to an inquiry from John D. Parks, Attorney General Wiley Jones has issued an opinion to the effect that lessees of state lands may protect themselves through the courts in the possession of their lands against the owners of wandering flocks.
 The question is understood to have arisen largely from the incursions of herds of goats on land leased from the state for cattle and sheep grazing.
 Senate Bill 90, which bars state of ficials or departments from exceeding their appropriations, does not seem to affect any statutory, annual appro- priations, nor does it affect any other appropriations that expire June 90, 1919." according to an opinion given today by the attorney general The opinion was written at the request of State Auditor Boyce.
 The largest department affected was the tax commissoin, but that body recently issued a statement based upon the opinion of Attorney Will Ryan to the effect that the commission did not believe it's work would be 'curtailed by Senate Bill 90. This opin- ion is supported by that offered by the attorney general.

MARRIED MY AGAIN LOSE
TO SINGLES; SCORE IL TO IL

The second game Of the season be-
tween the married and the single men
took place last Sunday afternoon and
the single men again had the big
end of a 13 to IL core. However. that
does not indicate that their win was
a walk-over. Things looked very
doubtful for the single men at one
time and good luck with them was
a big factor in bringing about their
victory. The generosity of the mar
ried men in allowing Arant. also a
henpeck, to pitch for the singles was
what cinched the result. Spectators
say that there is one thing demon
strated by these games and that is
that all the ball players in town are
not on the regular Winnemuuca nine
and that aggregation could be greatly
strengthened by the acquisition of
one or two players from the scrub
teams.

VIRGINIA CITY MINERS WILL
STRIKE FOR HIGHER WAGES

Miners OF Virginia City yesterday
by a vote OF 129 to 81, decided to go
on strike If their demand for an IN
crease OF 81 a day is not granted by
the operators of the Comstock mines.
The strike. however. will not be called
until official permission Is granted by
the International Union of Mine and
Smelter Workers. the headquarters
Of which are in Denver.
A further effort will be made to-
day To effect a settlement in a
conference between the miners and
operators.
II was declared recently by the
managers of the Comstock mines at a
conference held Mt the office of Gov
ernor Boyle at Carson City that the
demand OF the men would not be met,
declaring that the mines were engaged
mostly in doing development work,
and that the funds for operation had
to be raised by stockholders going
into their pockets for the necessary
money. II was said the operators
would lose the mines IL the full de-
mand was enforced.
The offer 10 advance the wages OF
employees having families to support
was refused by the men--IReno

DIVIDE STRIKE OFF
PENDING HEARINGS

There will be no miners strike in
either the Divide or Tonopah districts
pending the result of conferences on
a higher wage scale between repre-
sentatives of the miners and the mine
owners' association, according to the
Reno Journal. This decision was
reached last night at an orderly
meeting of Tonopah and Divide miners.
Admission to hall was by hospital
card only, thus assuring a representa-
tive attendance of working miners and
eliminating the so-called radical ele-
ment many of whom are said to have
arrived there from Arizona strike
c%enters and to be without employment.
A demand for a seven dollar, eight
hour day was made and a committee
appointed to confer with mine
owners.
The first conference will probably
be held today. Action taken last
night followed two meetings held
Sunday by ~so-called radicals at which
demand was made for an eight dollar.

Divide resumed full work this
morning. In fact most of the mines
