ERROR OF JUDGEMENT CAUSE OF WRECK
 HERE, SAYS BOARD

PHOENIX. July 15--J. M. Cash in the opinion of the board of inquiry of the Southern Pacific, was responsible for the runaway train which on July 5 crashed through the Bail-Heineman warehouse and office and did about Sl0O0 worth of damage and s955,000 damage to cargo.
 The report declares that the train was in charge of a crew of experienc ed men when 1t was switched in the middle yard at Tucson with four loads and four empties.
 Foreman c. Allison, it is related, l instructed Cash to let sufficient brakes off on the west end of the string, according to the report. so that he could let one load come against them and roll clear of No. 2. Cash. it is said did as instructed but failed to control the speed of the cars so that he could stop the cut when rolled down, coupled into two cars in { the west end of No. 3 track, the en- tire string of eleven cars rolling into l side of first, 92, which was pulling up | lead 10 ice house
 Tn the opinion of this board, the accident was due to the failure of Yardman Cash" concludes the report, to properly control the movement of this cut of nine cars before they obtained such momentum as would prevent them being stopped with hand brakes. Although they rolled twenty car lengths, only four brakes were se; on the nine cars and seeing cars on the west end of the tracks ran ahead to set the brakes on said cars in order 10 use them as a buf' fer. to prevent cornering train pulled up the lead. We believe that Yard. man Cash used every endeavor ,o stop this cars and his failure was due 10 an error of judgement Rules and instructions are explicit cover. | ing and handling of cars on grades.
 During the last six months 90 tests have been made to see tha; such rules are being complied with IL was being rumored at the time ,o' the accident that some mischievous person had unset the brakes and tha, the runaway was in part due to fail. ure Of light in the yard.

COChISE WILL NOT BE REPRESENTED.

Almost every county in the state of Arizona will be represented at Salt Lake City in September at the Convention of the National Tax As. sociation, but Cochise county, accord ing to information given out today The reason Cochise will not be re- presented. it is announced, is the fact that the Supervisors at their last meeting tabled without comment a request 10 send representative of the Assessors office 10 the tax con ference. Word from practically every county in the state is that the super visors have unanimously decided to send their assessor to the meet Am ong those who have notified Assessor E. A. Hughes here so far as Yuma, Greenlee, Yavapai, Maricopa, Pima, Santa Cruz, Coconino and Mohave
 It is pointed out that since Cochise county is the richest county in the state with an assessed valuation of s17l. l.0O0. 900 and surpassing every oth- CT county in the state by hundreds of thousands, that Cochlse should at least have one representative at the at the National Conference.
 T feel that the session at Sal, Lake is of the gravest importance 10 Ari zona," said Assessor E 4. Hughes, who returned today from trip 70 ;he north, where he has been in con ference with practically every asses. sor in the northern tier of counties What the assessors of Arizona will be able 10 tell the assessors from all over the United tates will he one of the best advertisements Arizona can secure toward showing the sys- tenn in vogue in this state and the manner in arriving at valuations. Be. sides the information :he Arizona as- sessor's will obtain will be O. inestim- able value 10 them, since recognized tax experts from all over the country will be there with data The confer ence of assessors of the western states has been purposely postponed until September 9 in order 70 allow the Arizona delegates 10 vote at The primaries before leaving
 MT. Hughes has been appointed as one of the special representatives Of Arizona at this conference by Cover. nor Campbell, but since no ac,iCn wss taken by the Cochise board he does not know whether he will he ah,e 10 attend or not
 The Assessors Association Of ari. zona and the Arizona Supervisors Association will have session in Douglas on July 26th. and t is pos. sible also the matter as affecting each county will be brought to the at ten,ion Of both associations fin an ef fort to have representative go to Salt Lake City from every county in the state

 Judge D. J. Half. of Kansas City, knows Mexico and is intimately ac. Quainted with leading Mexicans by reason of his work as legal counsel for the El Tirre mining company and various railroad mining, timber and oil companies Tor % years he has been .requeG: visitor to Mex. ico and has resided in the republic a good part of his dme, Recently he returned after stay os pine months in Mexico, and tha Kansas Ci.y Star prints the following interview with him which will ba r~al win interes. here as many of Tombstone's people will remember Judge Haff's visit here and his work in some important cas. es a few years ago which were held here.
 Gen. Obregon Is young man of more experience than ordinarily be. falls man of his age. He has had administrative experience, and also what you call diplomatic experience A successful general. to the point of being a popular idol, he is a man of great influence to his own country. r
 ITO understand what may unfold in Mexico, it is important to appreciate the General Obregon is progressive in his views and ambitions for the advancement of his country, the ad. vsncement of its prestige, reputation and prosi' ty. His is more eXten. sive aquaintance with the American people than that of any other public m'l n Mexico Of Us generation H, Is familiar with the renlrtrs 4 America ard does not hartor ,h2 suspicious of the average politician of Mexico, He is a man ot quick decision and remarkable courage-a remarkably courageous man both morally and physically.
 His great problem IS 70 suppress the military spirit of Mexlco--an in 10 years 1t has become thcrcugh Y Inaterialized spirit Out Of he re 'olution and disorders of 10 years las come a military caste ,ha: has gained its living, its adventures. it's fortune, out of the disorder in Mex. Go. Boys have grown to manhood knowing nothing except military ser vice. seeing no other advancement. It is Rome again in the time of Cae. sars'
 The cost of maintaining the present Mexican army Mir Half estimated ., n million pesos a day. or twice the revenue of the state. General obre. gon's problem it follows, is 10 de. mobilize and "moralile" the army 10 bring it under discipline and render it an instrument of order.
 
 'If he solves that problem. the future of Mexico is certain. was Mir Haffs confident deduction. ".t will restore credit. industry will rey,ve and the country will go forward.
 Mexico will grow everything use. ful to man. It can be developed 10 support a population of lo0, 1000, 900 persons. It is surely of importance whether there be to the south d stable government friendly to the United States. or whether there be Q the south fostering ground for the ma chinations of our enemies"

CORN AND OATS
CLIMB SKYMARD

Chicago. III, Feb 24.-Some depres-
sion in the corn market resulted to-
day from weakness Of sterling ex-
change and from lower quotations on
hogs. The fact. however, that re-
ceipts Of corn were not SO heavy as
many traders had looked for helped
the market to recover. Most Of the
selling came from spectators Open
ing prices. which ranged from &c de
cline to &c advance. with Nay s1.30
to s1.305k and July S1275s TO 1927 z ,
were followed by a moderate general
setback and then by a decided rally
Commission houses absorbed the
offerings later. and shorts trying 10
cover forced q sharp advance Bulls
called today's receipts the crest Of the
winter movement The close was
strong, 2 Is to I 7-Sc net higher With
May S1-34 to $685. and July
$3.50 IA to S1.30 3-S.
Further re-selling Of American oats
for which Canadian oats were sub
stituted had a temporary bearish ef-
feet on the oats market After open
ing IS 10 &c lower, including May at
77k to 775sc. the market rallied in
sympathy with corn
Provisions were sharply lower, in
fluenced by weakness Of hogs and

OF an aggressive sort
In the later dealings. the renewed
strength OF corn brought about a
general upturn in provisions.
