Among the indictments said to have been returned by the Maricopa county grand jury was one against Harry S. Ross, former state treas urer, charging him with conspiracy with Phil K. Lewis with relation to the depositing of large sum of the state funds in the Central Bank of Wickenburg, the alleged conspiracy consisting of purpose to conceal the amount of the deposit from the pub lie by means of the exchange of checks between that bank and the late Central Bank of this city of which Lewis at that time the head, and with which the Wickenburg bank was affiliated.
 Throughout the sessions of the grand jury it was rumored that in dictments had been found against both Lewis and Ross, and as early as last Monday 1t was positively known that a bill had been found against Ross
 The latter went from here to Los Angeles where it is supposed that he now is. Lewis when last heard of was in one of the northern states, Idaho Or Wyoming.

Some Car OlDrer Has Been GiUen A
 NelU Motor Meter

The motor meter on John w. Martins Oakland car broke down as he and Dee Brown were driving to Phoenix from Florence on Thursday. Mir. Martin was the general contractor of the Heard building. MT. Brown, who Is en- gagged in construction work on the Florence dam. also had a contract on that building.
 'I'D fix your motor meter for you" declared Brown as they reached Phoenix,
 Gan you do it?" Mir. Martin in- auired.
 Sure I can" was Mir. Browns answer.
 Later that day Brown encountered Martin and told him he had fixed the motor meter as he said he would do.
 How did you find my carp Mr. Martin asked.
 ''Oh, found it all right" Brown retorted to the admiration of his friend Martin.
 But his admiration for Browns ability in that direction was dimmed when. on going to his car a short time afterward. he found that there had been nothing done to the motor meter. The same old broken down one was there.
 What do you mean by telling me you fixed my car?" demanded of Brown when he later encount- cred him.
 What do I raean?" Brown re- peated. You're crazy; I did fix it." was his answer. But 1t was easy to show him that there had been nothing done to the old motor meter in Martins Oakland.
 But I did put a new motor meter into an Oakland car. and it was just that kind of a motor meter. too" Brown declared. He had found the car in the alley by the Heard building. an Oakland car which he supposed was Mar tins. They couldn find the car, however.
 Now MT. Martin Is searching for an Oakland car which has had a new motor meter placed In 1t by some unknown angel.
 Will the owner kindly speak up?
