THIS ARIZONAN IS
 GOING BACK OVERSEAS
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


 The lid is getting on too tight in his country and I'm going overseas lgain," writes E. Marchand from camp Merritt, New Jersey. He was eturned to the United States about hree weeks ago, and learning that -olunteers were wanted for service III France, re-enlisted for three years, nd with him are two more Arizo- lans, P. c. McCrellin, of Ray, and Clint Norris, of Miami.
 Marchand is from Yavapai, and 1t believed enlisted from Jerome with he 27th Engineers. He expected to all with 1,8OO volunteers on April IS rom New York. His letter closes IS follows:
 "The mines are all down in the country, work is hard to get, and l will do some more mucking for Un- cle Sam. Over there it is freedom o finish, while in this country the formation is hard to buck against any more. Anyway there are many here who want to go back to take chance in seeing more new country and later to return when things get shaped up again. If we get over nto Russia will try to do some pros )ecting as I heard when in France .here are big mountain ranges which must have mineral, and they have lever been exploited. So 1t is a case 2f businesss as well as pleasure which tends me back into the old drift.

complaint was insufficient in that he did not set forth that he, was not a member or a seditious organization and did not counsel tine l. w. w.
 The suit for libel grew out of a resolution published in the Journal Miner by the Northern Arizona Bar association saying that members would not associate socially or profes- sionally wnh Whitney, attorney for John Stanfield. who was deportei from Jerome during the l. W. w. of 1917.
 During the hearing on motions last week counsel for the defendants said that the complaint was indefinite and insufficient, indicating that should the plaintiff state his relations, if any, with the I. W. w. there would be no ground for libel.
 The plaintiff stated in court that it was matter of whether his reputa- ton had been damaged by the pub lished declaration of the Northern Arizona Bar association, and that the complaint was sufficient up on whic: to proceed in the matter.
 An effort was made in court by the defendants to have the case trans -erred to Yavapai county on plea that he articles objected to were publish ed there and all the defendants lived there. The plaintiff opposed this ac- ton bitterly, saying the suit could be brought here legally by reason that the alleged libel was circulated lere. Judge Stanford denied this notion of the defendants and the ,ase will come up for trial during the present session of the court unless delayed by other legal proceedings.

RULING CUTS
 THOUSANDS OFF SUIT
(From Sundays Daily)

Because the Copper Queen Gold Mining Co.,, notified the Stoddard Milling Co.,, on August s, 1917 that there would be a temporary discon- tinuance of delivery Of ore to the mill, until further notice and because there appeared to be no further no' tice, Judge Sweeney yesterday ruled that no evidence shall be admitted to prove damages because the alleged breach of contract, accruing aftcr that date.
 According to the figures in the com, plaint. this will stop the plaintiff from suing for matter of $63,0OO.
 The complaint asks among other damages, $5,OOO on a settlement, $30,- GOO unavailable profits between Feb ruary 1916 and August 8, that year, S20,000 toward the expenses of car rying out the Queens portion of the contract and $63,0OO profit on ore that should have been milled and wasn't after August s. It is the latter item that is said to be Topped off by the courts ruling.
 Superintendent Ferguson of the Copper Queen was on the stand all day yesterday, and during that DOT ton of the time when arguments were not being indulged in, was sub jected to close cross-examination by attorneys for the defendant Bing hampton company.
 There is a feeling that with so many more technical experts to ex- anime, the case will last well into the coming week.
