S ISSUED
 FOR THE ARREST 0f EXPRESS AGENT
C. l. heIeon, Former Local Agent of American Railway Express co., Has Been Followed by Detectives as Far as Chicago; Is Wanted in Clifton for Embezxfement.

Before United States Commissioner Dave Ling, on Thursday a warrant was sworn to by D. R. Payne, route agent for this district for the Ameri- can Railway Express Company, charg- ing c. J. Nelson, formerly local agent for the company in Clifton, with the crime of embezzlement
 MT. Payne arrived here on Wednes- day evening and swore to the com- plafnt, which. in the event of Nelson's arrest, will be heard before Commis- sioner Ling in Clifton.
 About three weeks ago c J. Nelson, who had been here about a year, left Clifton on Saturday night by auto for Lordsburg, where he caught an early morning train for El Paso. Before leaving, he announced he would be- back in Clifton on the following Tues day. Up to the present writing this engagement in Clifton has slipped his memory.
 Before leaving Clifton he made ar- rangements to have the local office kept open and it was four or five days following his departure before the division superintendent learned of his absence. An investigation was inn imediately made and it was at once discovered that a package of Liberty Bonds, containing bonds in the amount of s500O, had disappeared. The missing agent gave receipt for them on May 21 to c. Goldstein, a former resident of Clifton, who expressed them to his own address in Los An geles. The package of bonds never reached their destination and the rec ords of the local office showed that the bonds were never billed out. On i the same date a diamond ring, re- fceipted for by Nelson, failed to reach it's destination.
 Prior to the departure of Nelson his wife, who had been acting as his as- sistant, left here three days previous. According to Route Agent Payne, Mrs.
 Nelson has been located in New Or leans and is under surveillance in that city, where she is visiting with her mother.
 Nelson was last seen in Fl Paso on
 the Sunday following his departure
 from Clifton From there he went to
 Las Cruces and has been trailed as
 far as Chicago by detectives.
 In the complaint lodged with U. s.
 Commissioner Ling. Nelson is speci-
 fically charged with the embezzlement
 of Liberty Bonds in the amount of
 5000, although the statement was
 made that an audit of the office show
 ed an additional shortage of approxi-
 mately $1500 in cash.

BUTTON LOSES AUTO TRUCK IN BLAZE
 FROM GAS LEAK
Big Motor Freighter Purchased in Cisco by Former Greenlee County Man Is Complete Loss When 1t Burns Up on the Road.
(Cisco,, Texas, Roundup

A singular and disastrous fire oc- cured last Monday night between Cisco and Breckenridge, in which a valuable truck loaded with groceries was completely destroyed.
 w. w. Dutton of this city, who runs a truck freighter, was conveying sev- eral thousand pounds of merchandise from here to Breckenridge. His ma chine begged down in the road and Iafter trying to eXtr1cate themselves, he and his assistant concluded they could pull out by getting shovel and spading away the mud. His helper went under the truck to see if this was possible and struck match to look over the situation. Here is where the singularity of the disaster comes in. The truck had begged down over la Ieaky gas main. When the match was lighted the escaping gas became ignited. The blaze at first was insig. nificant and by the application of quantities of mud this was almost ex Itinguished. s
 MT. Dutton stated just as he was i:, the act of applying a quantity of wet earth to the last jet of the burning gas. business picked up. There was an additional leak: likewise, a great combustion. In a second the truck was covered with flames.
 The young man accompanying: hin had his hair and eyebrows singed and it was with some difficulty that MT Dutton succeeded in extricatins him from his perilous position. 1 The disaster occurred about Il o'clock Monday night. The loss is said to be about $3727; s3200 on the
 truck, which was only recently pur chased, and $527 on the burned mer chandise. Wednesday evening the
 wreck was still burning.

CAMPBELL WILL NOT GALL EXTRA SESSION
 F0R SUFFRAGE

PHOENIX, June F. - Governor Campbell will not call an extra session of the state legislature for the purpose of ratifying the national woman suff- rage amendment, which was recently passed by Congress. This statement was given out this week by the chief executive when interviewed by a Ga- zette representative. The governor is taking the same position that other governors have taken with respect to this same question.
 "An extra session of the state Iegis- lature would mean extra expenses. There ds really no need for action now as the women in this state are already enjoying that privilege at the polls" declared the governor. Personally, I am in favor of it and I have always been." |
 When asked what action he will take now that Judge Lyman of the superior court has denied the perma- nent injunction sought by Harris to prevent him from busting Harris from the office, Governor Campbell said that no action will be taken for the present until after few days. He is determined. however, that Harris must be busted.
 The office was rendered some time ago by the governor to Capt. A. C. Taylor, formerly of the 15Sth. Captain Taylor accepted the appointment, but later declined after Harris entered court with a demand for relief from an injunction against the governor Since then, Captain Taylor had about decided to accept the appointment ii the place did not involve any further legal entanglements.
 The governor is now figuring on 8 man who will be rendered the appoint ment and who will accept the position internationally. He declined to give out the name of the new selection.

BOND AND LEASE GIVEN 0N
 LESYNSKY COPPER MINES
$5O,ooo to Be Expended in Develop nent Work Between Now and January i.

Information was 1tceiyed in Clifton this week by Ike Stevens from R. Le- synsky in New York, son of J. Lesyn- sky, recently deceased stating that q bond and lease had been given on the Lesynsky group of copper mines in thi, district and that development work would be commenced at once.
 It is understood that under the terms of the bond the prospective pur- cnasers agree to perform development work to the extent of $5O,O00 between Low and January 1, 1920, at which time the first payment will become due.
 John Christy, who returned to the district this week, is said to have been one of the promoters of the transac- ttion. MT. Burger, mining engineer of New York, is expected in Clifton shortly to have charge of the work in a consulting capacity.
 The Lesynsky group has been under lease for the past two years to w. w. Christy and several thousand tons of good grade copper ore were shipped to the Shannon shelter up to the time the Shannon smelter was closed down. It is understood that the work done by MT. Christy has opened up big bodies of Tow-grade ore.
 The Lesynsky group was exported about three months ago by NIT. King don and MT. Hart, who spent several weeks here. MT. Kingdom is a brother of George Kingdom, general manager of the Verde Extension Messrs. Kingdom and Hart came here from Jerome and the statement is made that their report on the property was highly favorable. This fact has led to the belief in local circles that the big financial interests in Verde Extension are behind the bond on the Lesynsky group.

4. [. COMPANY BUYS SHANNON MINES
 |NTH|SO|STR|CT
Transfer of Property Completed This Week; All Surface Property and Mining Claims Embraced in the Sale; Old Shannon Shelter to Be Scrapped

The purchase of the entire holdings of the Shannon Copper Company in this district by the Arizona Copper Company, Ltd, was confirmed yester- day by Norman Carmichael, general manager of the Arizona Copper Com pany.
 The purchase was negotiated in New York several weeks ago and the for nal transfer took place this week.
 The sale by the shannon to the A. c. Co. includes all the mining claims approximately 1000 acres, owned by the Shannon in this district; the Shan non railroad from Clifton to Metcalf, and the smelter, copcentrator and real estate on Shannon Hill.
 In confirming the purchase of the shannon holdings in this district to Copper Era man on Friday of this week, General Manager Carmichael stated that the property of the shan non company had been purchased more from a speculative standpo' mt than an investment at the present time.
 A number of the Shannon mining claims are contiguous to the claims Of the Arizona Copper Company, ktd., and in some places the A. c. develop ment work on their property has al most reached the Shannon side lines. This fact had a bearing in the nego- tiations.
 With the rapid advancement that Is being made ir the art cf metallurgy, there is good ground for the belief that process will be proven pract1 cal, and commercially profitable, for the extraction of the values in low grade copper ores. At the present time extensive tests along this line are being carried out at the No. 6 con centrator in Clifton with gratifying re- suits. The Shannon mines are low grade, approximately 1 per cent cop per and the ore is described as re- fractory, but there is an immense ton mage of this class of ore.
 The old Shannon shelter will be scrapped in the future and it is an nounced that the Shannon Railway will not be operated
 It IS not lmprODdDle, HOWeNeT, Ihd' the Shannon smelter site in Clifton will be used by the A. c. Co. for the cree tion of it's teacher plant. It is not generally known, but it is a fact never theless, that several years ago the Arizona Copper Co.,, Ltd. sold to the Shannon Copper Co. 17 mining claims which this week were returned to the A. c. Go. under the sale consumated Charles NJ. Shannon was the owner o1 only two claims at the time he solo his original claims at the time he solo to the Shannon Company.
 During the life of the Shannon Com pany. in this district three and hal million tons of ore were mined, bu the preponderance of extremly low grade ore, in later years, the high cos of labor and freight rates. eventuall! decided the shannon Company tt cease operations.
 Beyond doubt the A. c. Co. cal operate the Shannon mines more eco nomically than was possible for thu Shannon, and it is good news for thu district that mining and developmen work on the Shannon property is t' take the place of idleness.
 General Manager Carmichael de clined to divulge the terms of the sale
