All merchandise on hand in our

repriced on the basis of today's re-
placement costs. BY following this
policy we expect to be able to keep
our volume of sales by items of
merchandise at a point conlmen-
surate with the early months of last
year and to maintain them on
profitable basis The first two
months of 1880 were periods in
which unusual gains were made.
"A study of 104 items, covering
white goods, women'S dresses in the

21:4 percent below that of last year
with reductions running up to 3o.3
percent in some items of wonen,s

percent in work clothes and 25.9

about six years ago. On Tuesday,
he said, he arrived here from San
Francisco after having been rob-
bed enroute of all of his money at
Phoenix.
Tuesday evening he crossed into
Mexico, spent the night at hotel
there, and started back to Nogales,
Arizona, at 9 o'clock Wednesday
morning Then he ran up against
a real barrier Having no passport
papers, and nothing to show that
he had ever been admitted into the
United States from Germany, he
was denied admission into this coun-
try. Then, to make matters worse,
Mexico wouldn't let him return to
that country, so Woertz straddled
the international line and there he
stood until 4:1O o'clocf. Wednesday
afternoon.
Observing the sad plight of the
old gentleman, 6, Nogales, Arizona,
business man took two sandwiches
to him at noon and hungry as a
bear he ate them while he stood
on the boundary. This same busi-
ness man also Altered further assis-
tance to the Old gent. He agreed to
feed him and give him lodging un-
till his case was disposed of but an
American immigration officer OBJ
jected, it is said Woertz continued
to stand on the boundary unshelt-
cred and becoming more chilled af-
ter each CT the numerous showers
had drenched him clear through to
the skin.
At 4 O'Clock in the afternoon
Woertz' outlook on life became
brighter. A representative OF, the
Nogales International went to Ro-
bert Cousar, American immigration
chief at this point, and after getting
little, if any, satisfaction from Cou-
sar, told him that it appeared to
him a case for the humane society.
The newspaperman then went
back to the garita and observing
Woertz still standing there in the
rain, remarked to one of the Amer
ican immigration officers at the
garita that the case was outrag-
eous and intimated the immigra-
ton service might get some unde-
sirable publicity
Five minutes later The 1nterna-
tional man again returned to the
garita and found that consent had
been obtained from Cousar for
Woertz to be brought in out of the
rain. Entering the garita The In
reporter saw Woertz
sitting there and the immigration
officer was asked the aged man his
name. He phoned to Cousar and
Ccusar refused to divulge it or to
let The international man say a
word to Woertz
One hour later Cousar phoned
The international and gave the
mans name.
Things then began to get better
for Woertz. He was given hearty
meal and lodging at a local hotel
and taken before the immipration
Thursday It is under
stood he will be deported to Germ
any.
Woertz claims he has sister i
n-law by the name Of Meyer re-
siding in Mazatlan, Sinaloa
The puzzling thing about Woertz'
case was why he was forced to
stand in the rain when just a few
reet away there was a brand new, !
,ozy garita, housing ablebodied
government officers. If red tape /
could be waived at 4:1O SO that .
Woertz could be given shelter, then
he same thing could have been
lone many hours earlier, it was
stated by a number of persons who
Jaw the feeble, shivering old man
standing there hour after hour by
1 pillar of the international fence
With no shelter above him.
