INDIAN FIGHTER STILL KEEPS
PAY VOUCHER FOR BATTLES

PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. Is U.P0-
Anton Mazzanovich, aged westerner
who trailed and fought Apaches
throughout New Mexico and Ari-
zona, has charged the government
with failure to compensate those
who repelled the Redmen in the
last Indian uprising.
Mazzanovich, now well known
author of pioneer days, has vou-
cher for $36.50-all he ever recelv-
ed for fighting Apaches and he still
has it because the government new
er provided for honoring it.
The voucher was issued by the
governor of the territory of New
Mexico and Mazzanovich feels the
government should pay off all such
youc: ers as the Apa'lle war was
fought on federal soil before Ari-
zona and New Mexico became states.

I'VE now are employing one man
for every 141 persons in the state,
as compared with an average in the
United States of one man for every
335 persons. The highway depart
ment is employing 1,16O men and
1912 men are being employed by
contractors.
The situation is acute. Many
men with families are in need. Pro-
v.ded we get the government appro-
priation, however, we will be able
to cope with the situation.
Mr.. Addams stressed the employ
ment of Arizona labor, and said it
was not his wish or the wish of the
department for persons from other
states to come into Arizona and
live off the state this winter. He
also said he believed he dole sys-

A. O'Connor of the Santa Cruz
county superior court, on change OF
venue here from Tucson where the
aged. frail little woman, is charged
with Staying her husband while he
slept in bed April 27 at their lu-
xurious home on Rincon road, near
the University of Arizona.
The Nogales international learn
ed yesterday that Chief Criminal
Deputy r. @. Leatherman of the
sheriff's office is to go to the state
prison at Florence today or tomor-
row to bring to Nogales, James Re-
velle. Negro masseur, who is to be
called as witness for the defense.
Thomas K. Marshal, 61-year-old
husband and former student OF Mrs.
Marshall when she taught at the
University of Arizona about 80
wears ago, was allegedly being treat
ed for a malignant disease by the
negro masseur shortly before his
death. Revelle, who is serving a
sentence in the state prison on a
charge of causing the death OF a
Tucson woman by an illegal opera
ton. conducted a quack medical
establishment in Tucson. Revelle,
it is understood, VIII be the star
witness for the defense.
Darnell's disclosure of what the
defense will be was made as he told
the jury what he thinks the evidence
in the case will show.
After reciting the early happily
married life of Mr.. and Mrs. Mar
shall, Darnel1 revealed that Mar
shall. some six or seven years ago,
became enamored with their house
keeper named Mrs. Seymour and
that Marshall, bit by bit and little
by little, wandered away from home
and associated with other women
and eventually contracted maIg-
nant disease, he said.
He then told of how Mrs. Mar
shall was led to believe that she
was being poisoned with arsenic,
how Mrs. Marshall took Tom to
task for his alleged relations with
Mrs. Seymour, and how finally she
discharged Mrs. Seymour last win
ter.
Darnell also sad the evidence
will show that Mrs. Marshall, lying
there in deathly fear, shot Thomas
K. MARSHALL and that Marshall,
when he was rushed from Tucson
to Los Angeles for medical treat
ment lad pneumonia and died
thirty six hours alter reaching the
coast citv y

Woman Was Tried
For Murder Here
Is Years Ago

That Mrs. Louise Foucar Marshall
is not the first woman to be tried
by jury in the Santa Cruz County
courtroom was an interesting de-
claration made yesterday by court
officials during discussion of mur-
der trials in general and the trial
now in progress in particular.
Perusal of court records revealed
the fact that at the October 1906
term of the District Court of the
Second Judicial District in and for
the County of Santa Cruz, Territory
Of Arizona, Mrs. K. D. Savage was
tried by jury on a charge of mur-
dering her husband.
Similarly to the trial of Mrs.
Marshall the trial was brought here
from Cochise county on a change of
venue. In it's criminal complaint the
Territory of Arizona charged that
Mrs. Savage on or about the day
August, 1905, at Bisbee, Cochise
County, Ibid then and there unlaw-
fully, willfully, feloniously and Of
her deliberately premeditated ma
lice aforethought make an assault
with murderous intent upon one G.
H. Savage with a lethal weapon,
to-wit: shotgun.
Hearing of the case required but
three days with Mrs. Savage be-
ing acquitted on the even ng of the
third day after the jury had deliber-
ated on her case less than two
hours.
The language of the Tcrr.tory'e
Grim nal complaint charging Mrs
Savage with murder differs but
slightly from the States info-ma-
ton against Mrs. Marshall, which
reads, in part: did then and there.
Will Q11y, I1l1dW4 U41y, 1C4O111OuS4y, OO-
liberately, premeditatedly and with
malice aforethought, kill and murder
one Thomas K. Marshall, a human
be ng".
Officers of the Court at the Sau-
wage trial, as in the present mur-
der trial, numbered some of the
most prominent Arizona lawyers
and included: Judge Fletcher M.
Doan, presiding; Thos. E. Flanagan,
district attorney of Cochise coun-
ty, S. F.. Noon, district attorney of
Santa Cruz county and E. F. Flan-
nigan, prosecuted the case while
Starr K. Williams, Thos. D. Ben
nett, of Bisbee, Allen R. English of
Tombstone and Judge William N.
Sawtelle of Tucson were counsel
for the defense. E. K. Cumming, No
gales businessman was a juror in
the case.

FOOTBALL SQUAD
IN GOOD SHAPE

The Nogales High School football
squad appears to be considerably
better this fall than it has been in
the last two years, Coach Bill Kerr
said at the close of the first weeks
practice.
The boys handle themselves and
the ball much better than they ev-
er did before this early in the sea-
son, and furthermore, they are hea-
vier and have more pep. There are
lots of brilliant prospects for both
the line and backfield and if the
boys can carry through the season
with the same spirit that they have
started out with, the Apaches will
be among the top notchers at the
close of the season.
The next two weeks will mean
lot of work for both the coaches and
the team as they have only that
narrow margin of time between
themselves and their first game.
The Apaches VIII tangle with the
Alumni on September 26, and they
are working hard to get into con-
dition for that game so that they
can start the season off with a
win.
The practice last week was spent
mainly on handling the ball and
getting into shape. Coach Kerr
drilled the backs on passing, running
back punts, and sidestepp-ng. As
sistant Coach Bellman put the line
men through light blocking practice
and exercises to tougher up the boys
muscles.
There is little indication as vet
as to who will hold down any of the
various positions. No one has a
c-nch on anything as yet, and IN
all probabilities there will be quite
a few changes in positions from
last year. Some of the last years
seconds will provide the veterans
with plenty of competition in many
cases.
This week will bring about a lot
+ of developments and by next Fri
day night both Coach Kerr and As
sistant Coach Bellman will have a
pretty fair idea of this years squad.

PHOENIX, Sept. 15.-The Arizona
highway department will be able to-
give half-time employment to 5000
men now jobless in the state If it
receives the $10O0O,000 in 100 per
cent federal aid now being sought
by the department, c.. E. Addams,
chairman of the state highway
commission, told the Phoenix chap
ter, American Association of En-
gineers, at it's luncheon meeting in
the American Kitchen yesterday.
1t was the engineers first meet
ing of the fall season. Nearly 60
attended.
Surveys and estimates already
have been prepared for building
$2,850 900 worth of roads and high
way improvements providing these
funds are made available" Mr.. Ad-
dams said II have written our rep
resentatives in Washington asking
their help in getting the appropria-
ton. Sen. Carl Hayden is hopeful
we will be able to get federal aid
funds that will not require match
ing by Arizona.
eff we get the appropriation we
will be able to spend 100000 a
month on highways to relieve un-
employment. We now have more
than 10000 applications for en-
ployment in the department files,
although all of these applications
are not active.

wife, Louise f. Marshall, veal

This became known yesterday
afternoon when Attorney GeOr-
ge r. Darnell of Tucson, chief
of the defense counsel, brought
cut in his opening statement to

Nogales international., 1931-09-16

shall trial got under way at 2:59 o.
clock yesterday afternoon when Mrs.
Matte Edwards, the first Witness
was called by the state.
Mrs. Edwards is Mrs. MarshalYS
housekeeper and was housekeeper
at the Marshall home on the night
of the shooting. She said that she
was awakened about / o'clock on
the night of April 9th by loud
banging. She heard someone hol-
lering and screaming oh a num-
Der of times and recognized Mr..
Marshalls voice.
"I shot Mr.. Marshall, she claims
Mrs. Marshall told her that night.
"Why?" she asked the woman. "I
don't know, don't know, couldn't
tell'', she says Mrs. Marshall re-
piled. She also testified that Mrs
Marshall claimed Tom Marshall had
been trying to poison her for three
years and had been living with an
other woman under her own roof.
Mrs. Edwards said she never saw
Mr.. and Mrs. Marshall quarrel, that
they seemed to be on good terms,
but that she never saw Marshall
put his arms around his wife or
kiss her.

ing, flashlight Of the courtroom

Phil A. Mclaughlin, neighbor of

ness and he told of hearing volley
of shots. For quite awhile he thought
that someone had shot at a PROV

the Marshal home did he learn that
Mr.. Marshall had been shot.
II heard voice say does no one
care'", said Mclaughlin and saw
Mrs. Marshall pacing up and down
the floor, and heard Marshall, as
he was being taken away by Lee
Yocum in an Arizona Mortuary am
bulance to hospital exclaim 'Ol1,,
will someone please take care of
Mrs. MARSHALL. Mrs. Marshall was
nervous, excited and not normal, he
said.

ing five reports of gun and heard
someone who was shot, crying
why did you do it?'"

MEXICO'S NEW
MONETARY LAW

In regard to the new monetary
law in Mexico, Eduardo l. Aguliar,
manager of the Banco de Mexico,
Nogales, Sonora, yesterday gave out
the following statement:
In regard to the Monetary Law
in force, my opinion is that under
the circumstances the measure TAX
en- has been very good and each
day the results will be noted and
these should be compared with con-
ditions existing during the last per-
iod before the mentioned law was
put into effect.
"As to the bank notes of the
Banco de Mexico, undoubtedly,
these will fill in a monetary neces-
sity, as our stock is very limited. A
great portion of the public has CIV
en- the wrong Interpretation to the
functions of the new currency and
its issue. The bills of the Banco
de Mexico, at the initiative of the
bank, shall not be placed on the
market nor will they serve to fill
in economic necessities under de-
termined circumstances and against
species as provided by law, one of
which VIII be rediScountS, which
amounts will form part of the col
lateral of the bills issued the other
part being the fifty cents in Mex
lean money for each peso in bills
of the bank, which the Banco de
Mexico should deliver to the Cen
trail Bankers Committee in such
manner that said bills Will be guar
anteed altogether, that is one part
will be guaranteed with rediScountS
and the other with the fifty cents
in cash in the vaults of the Banco
de Mexico, which will not be part
of the legal reserves required to
guarantee deposits. Therefore, a
bill of the Banco de Mexico will be
guaranteed practically with from
two to two and a half times Of its
nominal value.
There is no doubt that under
these conditions the bill of the
Banco de Mexico, which has hereto
fore been called plata bill, will not
only be received with satisfaction
but it will have its active effects,
or in other words that Of its real
circulation, as it is not the same
that a bill may be accepted and in-
mediately exchanged in the Bank,
or that it has passive effects or that
it will be used to make exchange
transactions as money which is ex-
changed from hand to hand; and
I understand it is up to the mer-
chants in general to not only ac-
cept the bill but contribute to its
circulation because increasing the
monetary stock with the bill, the
banking and commercial transac-
tions will be greatly facilitated and
will also increase in volume.
"It should be thoroughly under
stood that the bills of the Banco de
Mexico will be absolutely voluntary
calculation or acceptance, with the
exception of the Federal and local
Government offices, which are OBJ
liged to receive them"
