c lied for trial In the Federal District
Court OF Judge A. 3. Anderson.
A continuation will be asked by the

cal Assistant District Attorney Slack
t. bring about the removal to the juris-
d ction OF the Indiana court of u number
o the defendants living In Illinois and

Judge Anderson recently notified the
Attorney-General that an investigation
" Ill be held in open court regarding his

reason that he had received instructions
from the Attorney General regarding
elimination OF certain evidence. These

HOPE AUTO STEALING
 WILL NOT INCREASE

There were 31,649 automobiles stolen in 19 of the largest cities of the United States last year, as compared to 25613 the preceding year, accord ing to figures compiled by the National Automobile Dealers association, which reached the Phoenix chamber of com merce yesterday. Hope is held that the number this year will be less, ow- ing to federal law now operative in interstate thefts. Numerous conv1c- tions under this law are reported as having been made through the United States this year.
 The increase last year over 1918 was 23.5 per cent. Of the 31,649 cars stolen in 1919 23,332 were recovered, or TAI per cent. Of the 25,613 stolen in 1918, 20,203 were recovered, or 7S.i per cent. Cars stolen which were not recovered were valued at approxi- mately $5.410.000 in 1918. and $s,65S.- 360 in 1919.
 St. Louis was the only large city where figures were less than in 1918. This is accounted for by a vigorous law enforcement campaign against automobile thieves by the circuit at torney's office. Sentences up to 20 years were pronounced in St. Louis for the theft of automobiles.

MRS. ALICE MONETI BACK FROM BUSINESS MOMENTS CONVENTION.

Mrs. Alice Monett. of the office of the governor. is at her post after sew eral weeks spent in the middle west Mrs. Monett was a delegate from this state to the second annual national convention of the Business and Pro- was convened at St Paul on July 26 and was in session until July 31.
 There were 300 delegates present except two. In the election of officers the west was well recognized. Lota E. Kelly was chosen national vice presi- dent, and Mrs. Monett. vice president for Arizona. The report showed a healthy growth of the association since it's first annual convention at St. Louis last year.
 At the time of the convention wom- an suffrage seemed so assured that that subject was not an acute one. But it is interesting to note that in discussions of the new status of wom- en there was a sentiment that there should be no special legislation for women but that they should take their chances with men. But equal pay for equal service was advocated.
 By the statement that no special leg islation was asked for it was not meant that women believed that they should remain under certain disad : vantages under which women now suf- fer, as to property rights and other privileges. It was asked. generally. though. that they should be given an equal position to that of men.
 After the convention Mrs. Monett visited relatives in the Twin Cities.

T. w. Simmons of Cochise county, a pioneer of 'S4, was yesterday admit ted to the Pioneers home. His admis- sion would have occurred a good deal sooner if he could have been found earlier. His application was put in two years ago and was held pending the creation of a vacancy in the institu- tion When it was acted upon favor ably, Simmons had disappeared and could not be located for a year It was supposed that he had come to Phoenix but a search for him was con ducted in vain Finally the services of the police were enlisted and he was found conducting a small chicken ranch on East Jefferson street.
 Simmons is veteran of the Civil war and came to Arizona not long after that struggle Some years ago he suf- fered the loss of a leg in a mining ac- cident

DEER HUNTERS LOOK FORWARD TO SEASONS OPENING OCT. |

ment awaits the hunter who breaks the law, if caught and convicted.
 According to the local hunters there is large number of deer in Maricopa county this year. One instance is re- ported of a rancher near Buckeye who found several deer drinking from a water trough for his cattle because the only water hole in the vicinity had dried up. Rangers, according to the report. have frequently found deer herding with cattle on the range. From all indications, there are more deer in the county than ever before. The cul- tivation and irrigation canals are given as the reason Of the influx of the ani- mals.
 Deer, according to the hunters. can be found at White Tanks, near Buck eye, in Mormon Flat Canyon, at Fish Creek, Four Peaks. in the Black Can yon along the New river. and in the hills south of Phoenix. Local hunters trouble in securing a pair of antlers or ahead to adorn the walls of their dens. According to those who issue licenses, very few non residents of the state ever come to Phoenic for deer hunting. Fasteners, they say, seldom ever come this far south. but stop at Flagstaff and hunt in the White Noun tains.
 According to Bill Hart of the Palace Hardware and Arms company. the req son for the increased interest in big game hunting in the county is that a large number of young men became fla miliar with the handling of high pow cred rifles while in the army. They also secured a love for out door life, he says, and have taken a great. in- terest in deer hunting. Albert c. Pin ney. of Pinney and Robinson. says that more inquiries about the deer season and the best hunting grounds have

Out door gamsters, according to the local sporting goods stores. are show ing more interest in the coming deer season which opens on October l and closes October 3l than they have ever done in any previous years. More in- quiries are made. they say, for infor- nation about guns this year than have ever been made before. Deer Is also reported to be more plentiful than ever.
 As has been it's custom for a number of years the Pinney and Robinson com pany is offering a rifle for the first deer to be brought into Phoenix after the season opens. This year the gun will be a 250- 5000 Savage rifle and will have the date. the winners name, and the nature of the pr1ze engraved on the breech. There is keen rivalry for the capture of this prize among the big game hunters of the county this year.
 The prize last year was won by C.. r.. Cable of Phoenix. The year before the prize went to hunter in Glendale, and the year before that to Mesa. Phoenix hunters VOW this year the prize will be given to another Phoenix man. Mir. Cable shot his deer early in the morning of the first day of the season near New River station in Black Canyon. It was a black tail buck, ? years old. weighing 125 pounds. He brought it to the Pinney and Robinson store al 12:f5 o'clock in the afternoon of the opening day.
 The season opens on October 1 and closes October 31 and the law permits only one deer to each hunter. Does and spotted lawns have no open season and cannot be killed The turkey sea : son opens also at the same time and runs a month. But two turkeys are permitted to each hunter. Strict watch will be kept or the surrounding hunting grounds and heavy punish

SOON TO START PAv|NC' IF VAN BUREN STREET.


 Continuous pavement from the cen ter of Phoenix into the business dis trict of Mesa will be a realization within the near future according to City Engineer Hitchcock, who said that the paving of Van Buren street. the connecting link, would begin next week.
 From Central avenue to Sixteenth street, the city limits. the city will build a pavement of concrete base and bithulithic surface. A strip of three miles, extending from the city limits to the beginning of the new state high way at the grand canal, will be re- paved by the state wherever necessary and put into such condition as to com pare favorably with the new paving. This will insure the longest and best paved highway out of Phoenix.
 Work on other paving in the city is making satisfactory progress, accord ing to Engineer Hitchcock, who said that within 30 days surfacing will have been completed on all streets within the boundaries of Seventh street and Seventh avenue and Monroe and Jeff ferson streets.

EXCLUSIVE ORGANIZATION

Though legendarily reputed to be more than 1000 years old, the Order of the Thistle was founded by James II in 1887. After the revolution it fell into dessuetude, but was revived by Queen Ann in 1703. The chapel of the order in St. Giles's cathedral. where the king attended service on Sunday, was not commenced until 1909.
