Dies at Prescott

The unfortunate death Of Lineman
F. r. Sperry of Prescott occurred
Monday of this week about SO miles
south of Ash Fork while he was Ell
route with Lineman Stauffer Oh q
motor car running toward Prescott.
Little is known of the accident except
that Sperry leaned over the motor
car too far and in some manner fell
off sustaining injuries of the brain
that resulted in his death the same
date. The 4th district of the Albu-
querque division seems to have more
than it's share of motor car accidents
as everyone will recall the sad ac-
cident last year about this time
when several Of the officials were
killed while on a motor car trip.

|F0RD'S ROAD GAINS,
1921 REPORT SHOWS
$217,471 Increase in 0perat-
ing Income for Last
November.

Net earnings Of Henry Ford's rail-
road, the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton.
show large increases for the last few
months of 1921. and for the first elev-
en- months of that year over the same
months of 1920. according to figures
made public today at the Interstate
Commerce Commission. Notwithstand-
ing the increases shown during the
last year over those of 1920, there
earnings of the road since last April,
when earnings totaled approximately
$27c,oOc.
For November. the net operating in
come was $5,335 against a deficit for
November. 1920. of $2l2,136. a net gain
of $217,i7l.
The increases in net earnings took
place while reductions were being
made in rates on practically all COM
modities and while the employees OF
the Ford-owned road were being
granted increases in wages.
Figures for 1921.
Operating revenue of the Detroit,
Toledo and Ironton for November.
1921. totaled $68l,452, an increase Of
100000 over November of 1920, and
operating expenses for November, last
year. were $560,366. d decrease of S7s,-
$50. This decrease is probably ac-
counted for by lessened cost of main
tenance and of materials.
The maintenance item included de-
crease for eleven months ended with
December of S7S7, 007 in expenses. Cost
OF maintenance Of way decreased
$S99.656 during the first eleven
months of 1921 over the same months
of 1920, and Sl62,40S was saved in
maintenance of equipment.
The Ford road showed a net operat-
ing income for the first eleven months
of 1921 of $S92,931, an increase of
S2.202.332 over the same period of
1920. when there was deficit of
s1,3O9.40l. Operating revenues totaled
S6.634,656 for the eleven months. an
eleven months of 1920. and expenses
for the first eleven months of 1921
totaled s4.S52.7S4, a decrease of $751;
OO7. The ratio of expenses to revenue
was 13.l.
Speeds Up Freight.
Since Henry Ford took over the De-
troit. Toledo and Ironton he has
brought to the road much higher
class of freight, which is the main
BUSINESS ol tne ROAD. tneTe DelnS llttle
passenger travel, than was the case
before. large part OF the freight
business of the road is made up of
high-claSS steel commodities, which
take higher freight rate than coal
and stone. This accounts in part,
railroad men say, for the increased
earnings of the road.
Another factor that has strengthened
the revenues of the road is the prac-
tice of the D., T. and r. to deliver
freight in carload lots to a junction
with other roads, and offer it to the
road which can effect the quickest
service. In this manner freight move
ment is speeded UP and the turnover
of freight cars is made quicker.

FILTRATION PLANT
MEETS BREAKDOWN
Continued from First Page.)

If this situation arises, the unfiltered
water will be treated with chlorine.
and, while it may be slightly turbid
and taste of the chlorine, it is con-
sidered safe for drinking purposes.
Bearing ON New Conduit.
Asked if today's breakdown bore
any relation to the urgent necessity
for the new conduit from Great Falls.
Maj. Tyler replied that it did have
direct bearing on the need for an
additional source Of supply. The fill
tration plant, he said, has been under
strain along with all other parts
of the water system since the rapid
growth of the city increased consump-
ton.
He explained that completion of the
new conduit, which has been author
lied by Congress, Will relieve great
ly this strain on the present filtra-
ton plant for the reason that the
water brought from Great Falls by
the new conduit will not have to be
handled by the existing filtration
plant, but will be filtered at a point
near the District line and sent from
city.
For a number of years citizens and
officials of the District have been
calling attention to the danger of
postponing construction of another
conduit with the city using close to
the safe capacity of the existing con-
duit, but fortunately, no serious
breaks in existing equipment have
occurred.
While the disabling of machinery at
the filtration plant last night may
not necessitate the use of unhltereo
water if it can be repaired tomorrow,
it shows, Maj. Tyler said. that breaks
may occur.

TRAMMEL RESUMES.
Florida Senator Continues Attack
on NeWberry's Claim.

Truman H. Newberry appeared in
the Senate today for the first time in
several months. prepared TO speak in
his own defense in the contest
brought by his democratic opponent.
Henry Ford. for the senatorial seat
from Michigan. which was at stake
in the .l9lS election won,by Mr.. New
berry.
Mr.. Newberry, with a copy of the
address which he was to make in
his hand, entered the Senate chamber
five minutes before the opening. He
slipped the manuscript of the speech
in his desk. smiled at his colleagues,
and Immediately went out.
The chamber. usually half deserted
at noon. showed a quorum in attend
ance. The galleries were packed.
Senator Newberrv, pushing back the
swinging doors to the republi can
cioakroom. bumped first into Senator
Norris. republican, Nebraska, who
had been listed unofiicially as one of
the republicans counted to vote
against him. In a few moments the
senator was surrounded by his col
leagues.
There was no fixed hour for Sena-
tor NeWberry to begin his speech,
and meanwhile the Senate worked on
small grist.
Senator Townsend of Michigan tried
to chop off the small business SO that
the way might be cleared for Senator
NeWberry. who remained meanwhile
in the cloakroom.
Senator Trnmmell Resumes.

report holding that Senator Newberry
was not entitled to hold his seat
Mr.. Trammell continued the speech
which he began Saturday. going ahead
with what he described as an analysis
of the testimony in the record of the
Newberry case. He devoted much
time to the evidence concerning the
selection of campaign manager in
an attempt to show that from the
outset 1t was planned as a barrel
campaign"
The testimony as to the formation
of the campaign committee, Mr.. Tram
NELL declared, contained convincing
evidence that the committee was de-
signed purely as means of evading
the laws" He added, that 1t Seemed
to be we'll thought out scheme" of
campaign direction, but he felt that
violated.
Representative Alice Robertson of
Oklahoma sat with the senator's.
Speaker Appeals for Order.
There was so much confusion that
Senator Trammell demanded that the
Vice President stop it. The human
circle around the chamber kept on
talking, barely hearing the faint tap
of the gavel.
Reports from the floor were that
Senator Trammell would speak for
more than an hour.
Senator Newberry remained in The
cloakroom during the Florida SEN
ator's attack on him.
Nobody on the republican side
seemed to pay much attention to
Senator Trammelrs review of the
evidence. House members swarmed
in and women in the galleries kept
on with their whispering and knit
ting. The jam outside the public gal
lery doors was much like that pre-
vailing at appearances of the Presi-
dent before the Senate.
