 CITY WATER TROUBLES

MORALES, Dec. 10.-Jack OKeefe
 ias returned from Mexico City. where he has been playing with the Sonora baseball team, which has been mak. ing tour of Mexico.
 He reports the water situation in the City of Mexico very serious.
 The city was supposed to have em- ployed three shifts on the pumps of the water plant. Investigation dis closed the fact that the pumping sta- ton was run by just one individual. in the person of an old man who came on at a. m.. and remained until II ?. m, when the pumprs were shut down until the following morning.
 The old man fell asleep at his post and the pumps which are of very old type. and practically on their last legs broke down and the city has been al- most without water, except that sup piled by the public buildings which are wholly inadequate to the demand for the last twenty days.
 Water is being hoarded and sold at unheard of prices. if indeed it can be procured at all," O'KeeSe said.

 BUSINESS
 REVIEW

General conditions in the state continued to improve during No vember. practically all lines re- porting increases over October. which was considered one of the best months of the year.
 There were no developments in agriculture worth mentioning. Hay prices made further advances. and both short and lons staple cotton held their own as compared with the previous month.
 Sheep men have had a success ful season, with prospects good for another. Rains and snows have been encouraging to cattlemen. and ranges generally are in good shape. Conditions in the Los An geles cattle market as a result of the opening of the Union Stock Cards are causing concern in the cattle industry. and buyers are needed in many sections.
 A serious shortage of railroad cars in northern Arizona handi- capped stockmen. lumber mills and other industries.
 The price of copper stiffened in November. and few offers are reported II cents pound Sales were in fair volume. and several increases in production were made.
 There is a small surplus of un- skilled labor in some localities. employment is at minimum.
