FUEL SHORTAGE AT
 FIT. APACHE REPORTED
CBv Review Leased Wire)

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. S-SiX feet of snow in the White mountains and a serious shortage of fuel at Ft. Apache were reported to the United States weather bureau here today in a com munication from George J. Henry, ob- server.
 Speaking of the recent heavy snow fall in the mountains, Henry said that a government wagon train had return ed from Snowflake and reported hard going on the trip. Near Cooleys ranch they found the snow six feet deep. Mails were delayed by the heavy fall and wagon trains were forced to dou- ble up their teams to make any pro gress along the blocked roads.
 All the mountain streams are re- ported to be still frozen over, except at Rapids.
 According to Henry's report, the railroad from HolbroOk to CoOley's should be completed by the 20th inst, although the working gangs are SC verely handicapped by the drifts and the scarcity of labor.

U. s. HAS MODERN
 GERMAN HOSPITAL

WITH THE AMERItjtAN ERMY OF OCCUPATION, Jan. 20.-(COrrespOnd- ence of the Associated Press. )-One of the most modern hospitals in Flu rope today is in Coblenz operated by the medical corps of the army of oc- cupation. The hospital is a combina- tion of American and German advance ment in this line. During the war, this hospital, now used for surgical cases and known as American hospital No. 6, was a part of the garrison of Cob lenz. When the Germans withdrew they left all the modern electrical ap- pliances, and the Americans brought with them the latest improvements in hospital equipment which was used in furnishing No. 6.
 | Four other hospitals, under Amer | ican supervision, are being operated in Coblenz, one of them with 150C beds. Within the occupied area, there are nine American hospitals, includ ! ing the five in Coblenz. Two of these are in Trier, one in Prum and another in Maven.
 While these are known as evacua tion hospitals each of them is equipped and is functioning as a base hos pital, being located in buildings eith CT used by the Germans for the samt purpose or in old German army bar racks. The hospital staffs. consist O about 40 officers each. Approximatel. 100 nurses have been assigned to eacl of the nine hospitals, in addition to large number of enlisted men.
 The medical corps of the Thir, army is headed by Col. J. w. Grissir ger of Philadelphia, as chief surgeon with Col. H. c. Maddux of Orange Virginia, in charge of the hospitals.

citation can be shown by two examples brought to light by the influenza-pneu- monia epidemic.
 Ed Harrington paid in only $165, as he worked but three shifts for the company after he had been insured, and before he was taken i'll. The com pany paid an ambulance fee of $5 to have him taken to the hospital. He died within few days and his policy, made out to his mother, was paid. She received $500.
 George H. Waln was in similar cir cumstances except that he worked sev- en shifts after joining and before be- ing taken sick. He had only paid in $109. In his case also an ambulance fee of $5 was paid by the company and following his death his mother, resident of Apache camp, received $500. He left two small children.

ENPIOYES BENEFIT
 ANNUAL REPORT
 SHOWS DEFICIT

For the first time in it's history the Employees Benefit association of the Phelps Dodge corporation, Copper Queen branch. showed a deficit in its annual statement for 1918, issued dur ing the week This amounts to al- most S3O.O00 Under the working agreement it will be made up by the company. This financial condition is ascribable to the epidemic of pneu- mCria following influenza, which car Ted off a number of the members dur il inc latter part of the year and I.-l5-tated payment of several hun- C.eI benefits for sickness.
 The report includes both the Bisbee and Douglas branches of the benefit association. It shows that during 1918 Bisbee members contributed $44,11S.45 and those at Douglas S9,672.07, while the company contribution was $12,500 With the interest on average balances, and the surplus remaining from 1917 of more than S5000, the total credits for the year amounted to S71, ,494.34.
 27 Deaths
 Expenditures included 27 deaths in Bisbee and eight in Douglas, amount ing to $49, ,660. There were S33 acci- dent claims in Bisbee and 63 in Doug las, which resulted in paying out $12,- 752.O1 Nine hundred and fifty-five claims for sickness in Bisbee and 137 in Douglas cost the association S34,- 291.06. Expenses of operation were $4,247.75, making the total expenditure for the year S100,950.S2.
 At the end of 1918 the membership iii Bisbee was 77 per cent of the total number of men employed by the com pany and in Douglas 57.6 per cent. The rate of contribution from wages for the association was 175 per cent, which would show it to be the cheap est sort of reliable insurance to be found. Of the deaths recorded in Bisbee 16 were occasioned by influ- enza pneumonia, while six of those in Douglas were from the same cause. The average death benefit paid was $1599.
 Few Serious Accidents
 As far as accidents were concerned, the year was a particularly good one. While there were a number of minor accidents. there being TAP in the mines, few proved serious. There were Jo dNNlAN42lo eiAAAOAA5 A1CAAADCAo OA lAAN association while off duty, resulting in the payment of S37S3.73. The aver age amount of claims for accidents on duty was $9.68, while for those off duty it was S40.6S. In Douglas there were 51 accidents on duty resulting in payment of $513.5O, or an average amount per claim of S1O.O7. The ac cidents off duty in Douglas were but F in number, resulting in payment Oi $1273.04, or an average of $106.09 pei claim.

THE FALI OF SCHEIDEMANN.

Coming events cast their shadows before and the fall of the Scheide mann government makes it reason able to suppose that the signature of Germany to the peace treaty will be Forthcoming within the. time limit set by the Allies.
 The affair has not yet been thor oughly explained through the press but the supposition is that a split in the cabinet caused by a difference of is at the bottom of the fall. Scheide mann himself is opposed to the treaty as it now exists and Gustave Noske, minister of defense, is reputed to be gathering about himself a new cab inet. Undoubtedly this will be a peace cabinet, whether Noske or an- other individual is the premier elect.
 ! It is reasonable to suppose that hhe first duties of the new govern ament will be to sign the document at once. The mere fact that a premier in favor of rejection was Sorced to quit his office is sufficient Indication that rejection was not in popular favor and that acceptance will be the next step. It may be possible that the Germans are en- deavoring, through this means, to gain a further postponement of the signature by leaving the country with out tangible governm ment. The people must realize, however, that the tim has come to sign or answer further that the patience of the Allies has been tried to the breaking point and that there is nothing to be gained by further delay. It took long enough to convince her of this but she should now be assured that we are prepared to wait no longer.
 The return of Count von Brock dorff- -Rantzau, head of the German peace delegation, who is not in favor of signing, it is said, undoubtedly had a great deal to do with the over throw He had stated that he would quit rather than sign and it is pos sible that his resignation as foreign minister caused the break in the cab inet His action has little to do with the affair at issue, the Germans must sign and they will.

LETTERS OF AN ALTRUIST To His Physician
By Edmund Vance Cooke.

Dear Doctor; I am feeling better But pained to get your recent letter, Informing nc the consultation DeCTeed against your operation. Old friend, you know I love you dearly And sympathize with you sincerely. I know you must be disappointed To have your fondest plans unjointed By inexperienced coa adjutcrs Who thus presume to be your tutors, These lesser men of narrow vision Who interdicted your incision. Truly. these practitioners grieve
 me!
 Not or my own account. believe me, For I am qrIte without ambition. Except as it might be my mission To offer my collaboration AS subject of your operation. Well. well. let these vain fools con-
 tent them;
 I have a plan to CirCumvent them. Let us accept their crass decision, Not even limiting our derison; Then, when Tm well again, and
 hearty,
 We'll plan a little surgeons $ party. I'll offer. for your vindication, My two weeks sun1m ertime vacation, Whose spending money I'll invest in A newly vulcaniz d intestine, And if your conferees should venture Again 10 ca1,il or 10 cersure, Or. if some slip and it's resultant Shoul7 make them, fol the nCnce, ex-

Sir Edward Carson.

Whatever grounds there may be- and they are mum merous-for finding fault with Sir Edward Carson most of those who hate that picturesque politician and astute lawyer seem to do so in a rather illogical way, or for the wrong reasons.
 Home rulers and moderate unlon- ists certainly have no ground for ad- miring him. But those who favor an "I1 sh republic" ought not to forget that if Sir Edward had not raised and armed the Ulster volunteers-ln deh- ance of king and parliament, the law and the police-there never would have been any Southern volunteers and Sim Fein party would have re- nlained theoretical instead of becom- ing uncomfortably practical for all those in authority.
 Then there are those who say: But what right has Dublin born man to make himself head of the Ulster or northern faction ." Yet these very critics forget that some of those who are most busy with plans for the set tlement of the everlasting Irish ques- tion are not Irish themselves but are

Congress COntradiCts Itself.

The attitude of Congress is as pe- culiar as it is contradictory. In one breath the Senate leaders denounce the proposed league of nations in un- measured terms-and then proceed to cut the military and naval appropria- tlons below figures that can be justi- fled only by acceptance of the League of Nations. If the League becomes a working fact reduced armaments must necessarily follow with mater tally lessened expenses for n1ilitarv purposes. Without it the heavy bur den of militarism must go on. Ap- parently if it be true that actions speak louder than words, Congress is prepared to accept the league of nations. Otherwise 1t is giving the lie to it's own violent cond demnat ton of failure to be prepared for such an emergency as confronted us on en- trance into a great war.

Americans by birth, breeding and al- legiance, while many of them have never set foot on Irish soil.
 Others call Sir Edward a "plaed hunter" True, he has held high lei gal and civil offices in Ireland and Great Britain. But man who, as at1 torney general for England, could have had, according to tradition and custom, his pick of all the vacant jul dlcial offices, who could have beeN lord high chancellor, with a peerags vet remained a simple member of par lament, can hardly be called greedy He was a member of the house of commons for Dublin university from 1892 until the last election, when he gave up that perfectly safe seat to sl' for Belfast constituency.
 Sir Edward Carson may be a fafT' atlc. He certainly has upset the ap' pie cart and has shown his supposec enemies how to make trouble, whll they have bettered his instruction. Bu' no matter how wicked a public mar may be his foes ought to be accurate when they come to drawing an indict- rent against him.

short time there has been a reduction in the prices of food and clothing A per cent. in foodstuffs and 6.2 per cent. in textiles. These changes, however, are hardly apprecia be when the figures of 1914 are recalled. The average increase is still from SO to 65 per cent. above the pre-war level.
 Nevertheless, an average drop of approximately 3 per cent. is not alto gether discouraging. Possibly it in- dicates a definite check in favor of the consume CT, even though coal and some other necessities have not re- sponded to the general demand for Provision doWnvard.' A conclusion that on the whole the retail markets are som eWhat more satisfactory to small buyers may be drawn from the figures of the national industrial con- ference beard. This is by no means all that consum CTS would like to have vet it is som mething to be given req sonable assurance that prices are on the down grade at 1ast-even 3 per cent. is a welcome change.

ORLANDO RESIGNS.

Synonymous with the chronicling of a split in the cabinet of an enemy nation, causing it's downfall, comes the news of the resignation of the Orlando cabinet in Italy. The two similar events are much different in cause however. The Italian Premier was forced by parliamentary proce- dure in his country to offer his resig- nation, with that of his cabinet, after the Chamber of Deputies had brought ill a vote adverse to his request. His act has not been sanctioned by the king and he is still the Premier, cepted.
 The Premier desired to have the Cham Der consider, in secret session, it's possible vote of confidence in the government. The conduct, by the of fcials of foreign affairs was to be discussed at the tribunal of the people and then voted upon and the preliminary motion that the discus S1On De nelQ ln prlNate was lost, which was a defeat for Orlando and called for his resignation. The vote regarding foreign affairs was not taken.
 It is evident that the Italian pub lie desires to have it's governmental affairs fought out in the open, in or | der that all may know what is going l on. The action was to gain this | rather than anything else. The days 1 of star chamber sessions are rapidly disappearing before an enlightened
 world A few years ago it would | have been the rule to fight out for 1 eign policy in private, leaving the l citizens in the dark about what was
 intended and what had been done 1 Now if is imperative that open ac- 1 tion be taken. The lessons of the
 war are being rapidly learned If
 there are wars in the future the people will make them, not ring
 of officials such as were to blame for
 the last one. Italy probably will
 agree with it's officials but it wishes
 to know the why's and wherefores.

THE ICE MIXUP.

Following closely upon the heels of the announcement made before the Common Council the night before last. that the city was threatened with 8 complete ice famine, Alderman Curtis has come forward with the statement that there is no reason to fear a shortage in the city this sum- mer He states that he has conducted an investigation and found that the Berkshire Ice Go. willacontinue to sup ply the dealers, possibly at higher price. There is @ possibility, not a probability of a famine" he says.
 We are not in 8, position to state whether Mr. Curtis is right or wrong. It seems evident that the Common Council, through it's ice committee, took great deal for granted when it assumed that the dealers were to get no more ice. This has not been may readily believe that the Berkshire Ice Co., will cut off our supply should 1t take it into it's head to do so. Arbt- trary actions seem to have been the rule of that corporation. The situa- tion in other cities of the state makes it easy to believe that we may, at any time it suits the company, be deprived of the hot weather necessity.
 Mir. Curtis himself introduced the resolution calling for a further in vestigation and report on the subject of ice before a special meeting of the council to be held next "Wednesday y evening. Now he assures us that we will get our ice, probably at a higher price. We hope he is right, yet the meeting of the council may we'll be held and the matter of another pos sible supply, and the expense of il thoroughly gone into. Ii will pay q any rate to be sure of our ground.

HawkeT Er1's Again
(Waterburv Republican

Harry Hawker erases one letter on his name from the American list of heroes every time he makes sneering remark at the line of war ships that was stationed across the Atlantic on the naval flight to Europe. They were there to rescue and succor the aviatOrs in case of need. The result showed that they were need ed. Hawkers own experience shows that something of the sort was needed. He flew above the main lanes of trans atlantic steamship travel and when he needed a rescue ship he located one within two hours. The naval avaiators were sent across a less trav- eled portion of the ocean. They could not depend upon chance vessels.
 Furthermore, they were not flying in competition with Hawker at all. They were not hoping to receive any prize money. They were under or ders of the Navy Department to make the crossing, not as a stunt, or in the hope of money reward, but as ser ious contribution to the science of fly ing. The Navy Department had ships and facilities at it's command and it was the duty of the department to use these to safeguard the aviators as much as possible. If it had sent them out unsupported it would have been criticised much more severely than
