PHOENlX. Dec 16.-Col. Waiter s. Isgalls, state adjutant general. accom- panied by Col II. A. Hanigan, of the Arizona national guard. left here late today for point on the Salome road, S miles west of Phoenix. where he will start search at daylight to- morrow for the two men seen wander. ing on the desert by motorists yes terday.
 The men were described as wearing leather coats and Colonel Ingalls, ex- pressed the belief that they might have been Col Francis C. Marshall and Lieut. C. L. Webber, missing aviators. who disappeared last week on their way from San Diego to Fort Huachuca
 The report was made to the adiu- tant general by Mrs. Charles II. Linn. bach. of Chicago. who crossed the desert yesterday with her mother, Mrs. Walter warder. also of Chicago, and her chauffeur.
 Mrs. Limbach said the two men were about 800 yards from the road and were walking around with their heads down as though they were looking for something. She said she thought nothing of the incident until it was recalled to her mind by the latest accounts of the missing aviat- ors in today's papers.
 Military authorities believed that the two aviators. as a result of re- cent rains, might have found enough water on the desert to keep them alive and might have been walking in a dazed condition when seen.
 Colonel Ingalls, communicated the information to Col. F.. E. Winans at Tucson this afternoon, and was ad. vised to make the search.
 Mrs. Limbach said she could not say whether the men wore helmets or tight fitting caps, as she saw them only at distance.
 The Phoenix-Salome road runs through a desert region north of the airplane route from California and has been given little attention in the earl fer search for the missing aviators

from the state for a period of 25 years and suspension Of the imposition of sentence for that period on condition that he leave the state within 24 hours was the punishment meted out today to Frank ". Jirou. a confessed participant in the holdup of the Gold CT State Limited on the Southern Pa cific railroad on the morning of May 16 at a point about eight miles west of Tucson. As Jirou is now 61 years old. the sentence is considered equi- valent to banishment for life.
 In explaining the reasons for the sentence, Judge Kirke T. Moore told Jirou that he suspended the imposi- tion of sentence because of the prom ises of leniency which had been made to him by officers investigating the crime on condition that he tell the names of the other members Of the party and turn states evidence.
 Under the law, Judge Moore said. the lightest sentence he eoald give him would be c years in the state penitentiary, and he did not feel that this would be carrying out the prom ises of leniency which had been made tc him. For this reason, the judge said, he would suspend the imposi- ton of sentence for 9 years.

 The planes will take to the air again tomorrow to aid in the work which has grown more disheartening daily as uii clues are found to be groundless and new ones fail to show any information of value.
 Although reports of planes seen on Thursday when the plane disappeared continue to drift into the searchers' headquarters. the information con ta;ned in them grows more ethereal every day, and no information of real value has been gained since the re- ports of the plane sighted over the Whetstones. As the search of these mountains and those nearby ap- breaches completion, however, Colonel Winans is inclined 10 attach less i'm portance to these reports, which ap- peared so valuable at the time when they were first received. It is for this reason that the search is being directed more closely 70 the western end of the route although this terri tory has already been fairly well searched by the planes which have traversed it in coming here from the coast.

LONDON STRUGGLES TO MAIN TAIN ITS WORLD SILVER
 MA RkET lEADER R SHI ?

NEW YORK. Dec. 13.-More pro nounced demand from China has created much stronger silver markets during the week with prices at New York up about one cent an ounce. At London prices have ranged from 32 1-6d 10 g l-Isd Exchange rates on Far Eastern countries shows the most improvement in those of Hong Kong and Yokohama doubtless due to the larger silk shipments
 On Thursday December ?, London prices were off 10 31 7-Sd, but actual New York sales were above 65 cents, although the New York-London equi- valent was 64 3-s cents. Shipments direct to China from this country have been larger during the week and prices are more independent of those made in London.
 Exchange on India holds a; the high record of the year. 30I-e cents. The strong jute markets at New York and Calcutta are probably one of the strongest influences.
 Silver stocks at Shanghai are much smaller. At the beginning of the month they amounted to a little less than 40,00O.0G0 ounces in sycee. S3.. i00,00o dollars and HOO bars, against i2.000,000 ounces in sycee. 5000, 900 dollars and 1530 bars on November 15.
 The strength in Chinas position this week may be attributed to the Chinese New Year demand which comes in February. rather than the two weeks earlier period of last year.
 Political conditions in China con. tinue greatly disturbed but they very rarely influence the general overseas trade and especially the silver markets

INDIAN ooLo-sILvER MOVEMENT:


 The exceptional large imports of gold and silver into India in the F months. October, 1921, to September, 1922, are shown in the official report which gives gold imports at 276,600,. 900 rupees and in silver at 147, ,100, 900 rupees. In October, combined gold and silver imports were 3s,4O0. 900 rupees. Exports were smaller at 3,200,000 rupees.
 Merchandise imports into India for October amounted to 229, 9,000,000 ru- pees against 235, 100000 in October of last year, and about the largest for this year. Exports were also higher at 216,250,0 900, compared with 1s2,200,- 900 rupees last year. The result. however, is in the first adverse trade balance for India since last January.
 U. s. SILVER PURCHASES
 The Director of the Mint has been a large buyer of domestic silver so far this month. the total amounting to 3,712,o0 ounces. against 2,110.S3S ounces in November and 7,631.s25 in October.

 Total for the year to date is S.. 7so,524 against 5s,ss3,3o4 for the en- tire F months of last year.
 Most of the purchases this week were for delivery at the Philadelphia mint, and at ss 5-s cents net, rather than the ss 1-4 cent price at the Den yer mint.

VILLA, FILIPINO,

TTTLEFROM BUFF
Battles Champion to Floor
In Eleventh by Ter
rife Assault.

NEW YORK, Sept 14.-Pancho
villa, demon fighter from the
Philippines. won the fiyweight
championship OF America tonight
by knocking out the title holder.
Johnny Buff, in the eleventh round
of a scheduled fifteen round bout
at Ebbets Field. Brooklyn.
Buff never had a chance before
the pummelling, faying onslaught
of the invading Filipino. His chief
reliance was gameness. but this dld
not faze villa, who used every blow
known to-boxing and threw In
few of his own particular brand to
celebrate the occasion.
Villa took every round. He
whaled haymakers with left ana
right. At long range fighting he
broke down Bluffs guard with sheer
strength, and at infighting he had
the champion groggy. Buff was
pitiful spectacle as he came up for
the tenth round. He was bleeding
from his eyes. ears, nose and
mouth and his body was smeared
with red. He was Topped three
times in that round. but in each
case crawled to his feet without
taking time out The bell saved
him from a knockout.
At the beginning of the eleventh
round villa sprang from his corner
and landed a disastrous right TO
the jaw. sending Buff into the
ropes. Johnny hung on. but villa
battered him to the canvas, and
Bluffs seconds tossed in towel at
the end of twenty-seven seconds
of fighting.
Buff weighed 111k pounds and
Villa 11o.
A match with Jimmy Wilde. Of
Great Britain. for the fiyweight
championship of the world was
hung up As a prize for the winner.
Before meeting Wilde, however.
villa is expected to dispose OF
Frankie Genaro, another prominent
contender for the midget throne.
This was the second title Buff
lost during the present year. He
lost the bantamweight crown to
Joe Lynch not long ago and was
therefore fighting with his back to
the wall in his meeting with Villa.
