FINDS COMPANIES
 OF THE SAME NAME.

When Loren Vaughn, member of the state corporation commission. sought information relative to the Harris Copper company in response to query from California bank, he discovered that there are not only two Harris Copper companys, but also Harris Consolidated Copper company and Harris company, ac- cording to the records. The com panies are all incorporated under the laws of Arizona and the fact that the bank making the inquiry gave the date of the incorporation gave the commissioner the clue to the right corporation.
 The search of the commissions rec ords convinced MT. Vaughn of the wisdom of it's later laws which do not permit two companies to be incor- porated under the same name of names so similar as to cause confu- sion.

ANOTHER ATTEMPT F MADE TO SAVE LIFE
 0F N|CHA|V MARTIN

Stephen Abbey. counsel for Nichan Martin, sentenced to hang September Tor the murder of Arthur DeSteun- oer. Canadian soldier, is confident that he will save the man, twice con- demned to death. This belief was expressed by Mir. Abbey when in Phoenix yesterday from his home in Florence He made application to the supreme court of the United States on writ of error, based, he eaio, on several federal questions i. raised.
 The petition for a writ Of habeas corpus filed in the superior court of Final county raised federal ques- uon by alleging a violation of the constitution of the United States in that Martin was not granted speedy trial, according to Mir. Abbey. He believes that the application will be sranted or denied early in August. In either event, he believes that Mar tin will not hang in September.
 If the petition is granted, the mat ter will come up before the court during the autumn term, and if it Is denied Abbey claims he has other things up his sleeve to prevent the hanging of an innocent man.
 The Martin case is important in the history of criminal cases in the state in that it settled the problem once and for all time that after the trial mandate has been handed down by the supreme court the lower court can take no action in the matter
 This is what Abbey attempted to do in the Martin case. by bringing habeas corpus proceeding in the su- perior court of Pinal county on June g. the day before Martin was to be hanged. The action was brought on the ground that the defendant had not been brought to trial 50 days after the filing of the informat tion charg- ing him with murder. The court de- nied the application and Abbey ap- pealed. The matter ended in the writ of certiorari brought by the state which was decided without ar guments being submitted by the at torney generals office.
 The case had an added interest in that Martin, an Armenian by birth, was in the American army during the war although he did not go overseas. Certain members of the American Legion appeared before the board of pardons and paroles in his behalf asking that the death sentence be commuted to life imprisonment. It was after the board refused to act in the case that the eleventh hour proceedings were instituted by Alb bey

HOUSE DESTROYED.
 AND TWO DAMAGED IN EARLY MORNING FIRE

Need for the immediate completion of water main extensions to new ad- ditions recently annexed to the city of Phoenix was demonstrated in an early morning fire at Sixteenth ave- nue and Mckinley street yesterday morning, city officials declared. Prop erty loss totalling s3,500 resulted, fire department records show.
 The scene of the fire was more than a quarter of a mile from the nearest water plug, city firemen de- clared yesterday Unusually high pressure was necessary to force the water through the 1850 feet of hose and small nozzles. reducing the size of the stream, had to be used to ob- tain sufficient nozzle pressure to fight the blaze. A total of 2,700 feet of hose was laid, comprising two lines from the nearest water plugs.
 The time consumed in laying the hose and getting up pressure gave the fire big headway with result that one structure was completely destroyed and another partially razed. The scene of the fire, officials said. was in a district recently annexed to the city and at present without fire protection. It is included in the dis trict in which water mains are soon to be laid, however.
 The fire started in home occupied by three sisters, it's cause being un- determined. 1t was a wooden struc- ture and by the time fire apparatus from Central and No. stations reached the scene. the blaze was be- yond control. It spread to the ad joining structure on the east. which was also partially destroyed before firemen got into action.
 Damage on the first house amount ed to s2,000 covered by $500 insur- ance, fire reports show. The second house was damaged to the extent oi about $1,50o with insurance amount ing to $1,000.

The condition of the body indicated that the Canadian soldier had been shot in the back with a 3S caliber pistol and the body dragged and par tially burned. Circumstancial evil dence pointed to Martin, with whom DeStunder had travelled across coun- try. They were touring from Chicago to the coast when they stopped over in Northern Arizona. They were last seen together near the place of the homicide. and where they are alleged to have had differences over money matters.
 Martin was arrested in California and upon being returned to this state for trial, escaped from the officers. He was recaptured. but not until after he had been shot by the off cers.

TAX EXEMPTION ON
INCOME OF MARRIED
MEN PLACED S2,5OO

The Republicans of the Ways and
Means Committee of the House yes
terday voted to grant heads of fami-
lies. having $4,000 or less net income
an exemption of $500 from income
taxes. instead of the present exemp-
ton of $4,000. This is in addition to
the increase from 5000 to $40O in the
exemption allowed for each child. No
change is made in the exemption for
single persons.
1t is estimated that 32.000,000 will
be dropped in taxes by the increase
in the exemption, which will be eff
fective for the current calendar year
The committee also voted to put fiat
tax of Is per cent on income derived
from property transfers. A fiat and
definite tax will relieve the uncer-
tainty as to the amount that will be
taken in taxes in cases where prop
erty has been held for several years
and negotiations fer its sale are under
way.
The fur tax was reduced from 10
per cent. to 5. the manufacturers tax
on candy was cut from per cent. to
8. and the tax on art objects was cut
from 10 per cent to 5. This latter tax
does not apply to pieces of art bought
