FINANCE AND
MARKETS
XEW YORK, March 14. The rise
in stocks was resumed. The most
important issues made fair gains, but
the reaction in the final dealings cut
into the advances. The late reaction
was influenced by the decision of the
federal courts ordering a dissolution
of t lie bituminous coal combine.
Chesapeake Ai Ohio, which was strong
in the early trading lust its advance
and gradually other coalers, including
the anthracite group, gave way. In
dustrials were little affected. The
decision of the I'nited States Express
Company to retire from business
caused a sharp advance in the stock,
on the theory that liquidating value
of the shares would be in excess of
the market quotation. It was the
opinion of traders that the outstand
ing short interests were unusually
large and it was assumed that cov
ering was the principal factor in
forcing quotations yesterday and to
day. The liank statement made a
better showing than for any recent
week.
There was (fullness in the securities
market and the lessened volume of
new financing was reflected in the
contraction of loans. The cash gains
of nearly $7,00 0,000 was twice the
amount predicted. Trading the bonds
was quiet witfh smaller variations
among the speculative issues which
have been weak recently. Total sales
represented a par value of $1,400,000

that had
puzzlei
the authorities at Ulendale
for five day's and promised to be un
explained for all time. In the city
jail last night was Joseph Micklcr, a
15-year-old boy, confessed perpetrator
of a job that would have done credit
to a five-times older head, while at
Glendale was a young woman rejoic
ing over the return of jewels she had
never expected to see again.
Some time ago Mrs. C. A. Preston
of Boham. Texas, arrived at Glendale,
accompanied by her invalid father.
She placed her parent in a sanita
rium about one mile out of Glcmlale
and secured quarters for herself at
the home of W. C. Welch in Glendale
One of the members of the Welch
family was the Mickler hoy, who had
been given into its keeping by the
Maricopa County Juvenile Court some
immths previously.
As was her custom, Mrs. Preston
spent the greater part (if Sunday
with her father at the sanitarium.
Incidentally the Welch family was
absent from home several hours on
Sunday, leaving only the Mickler boy
at the house.
'in Monday morning .Mrs. Preston
in -examining one of her trunks dis
covered that it had been tampered
with. None (if the kn?ks were broken,
but there was evidence that it had
been opened. A jewel case in the
trunk which had containd upward of
$1,000 worth of jewelry and about $25
in gold coin, was seemingly intact,
but when it was unlocked it was
found that the money was gone -and
were also three rings. One of these
rings was a solitaire diamond valued
at $175. An opal and pearl ring,
valued at $35. was gone, and a five
pearl ring, valued at $50, was also
missing.
For five days the Glendale authori
ties endeavored to locate the missing
gems, but without avail. On Friday
afternoon Detective Murphy went to
Glendale. and although the "scent
was cold" soon had the Mickler bay
under surveillance. Hurriedly sum
moning an operator from the Phoenix
office of his agency. Murphy soon
had a net established from which no
one who might have knowledge of the
affair could easily escape.
Finally came the arrest, the eOB

and. last but not least, the unearth

New Orleans
r associated pans dispatcbt
XEW ORLEANS, March 14. The I
tenth annual National Child Labor
Conference will begin here tomorrow
afternoon with an open air mass
meeting in Lafayette Square opposite
the city hall. This departure in the
manner of holding the first meeting
f the conference was made in an
endeavor to attract to the sessions
the people whom the child unlift
rk is destined to benefit, City of
ficials have arranged for a Beefing
capacity of several thousand.
For several weeks leaders in child
labor endeavors here have tried to
impress upon persons whose child
ren are employed in industrial 1 ,1a lit. s
to attend the first meeting. Some of
the most prominent speakers of the
conference will address the open air
meeting. These include Jane
Addams of Hull House, Chicago; Dr.
Felix Adler, chairman of the na
tional child labor committee under
the auspices of which the conference
is held; Luther E. Hall, governor of
Louisiana, Martin Behrman, mayor
of Xew Orleans, Senator Robert L.
Owen of Oklahoma, and Judge Joseph
E. KcCuMough of Greenville, S. C.
Among other speakers at the con
ference which will extend over four
days, are some of the foremost child
labor betterment advocates in the
country.
The program this year is devoted
largely to the need for enforcement
of the state child labor laws, rather 1
than a plea for more drastic meas
ures in this respect A call for a
change of laws in some states will not
be overlooked, it is said, but an
earnest plea will be made for en-
forcement
of what are considered
good laws.
"A great many of
good child labor laws
Jean M. Gordon, f
the states have
now," said Miss
irmer Louisiana
factory inspector
and who took a
prominent part in arranging for this
((inference. "For instance Louisiana
had a good law as far back as 1SS8,
but it was not enforced until recent
years. A few years ago we saw the
need for a more stringent act and we
got it. Enforcement of measures now
on the statute books will do wonders
toward solving the problem of the
working child, particularly in the cot
ton mills of the south."
Miss Gordon said she believed con
ferences of former years had not
reached their full importance because
people who work in the factories and
mills have not been attracted to the
meetings. It is for this reason the
mass meeting was planned and some
interest aroused among workers in
New Orleans.
On March 20th a meeting of the
southern conference of women and
child labor will be held. Many of
the delegates to the national or
ganization are members of the south
ern conference and their work is
along much the same lines. The
southern conference is a new organi
zation having been formed in 1000 in
Memphis.

Officials of Company Visit Valley to
Map Routes for Excursion
Phoenix will be included in the
next routing of the Raymond Whit
comb tours. This decision was reach
ed and announcement of the tact
made yesterday afternoon, just prior
to the departure of L. X. Culver, vice
president of the R. W. Tours Com
pany and Livingston Ward, general
advertising manager of the same
company. They made the trip which
will be included in the route, and
were more enthusiastic over it than
over any other they have yet made.
Coming from the east the trip will
be routed to Globe with transfer at
Bowie. From Globe the trip will be
by automobile, going to Roosevelt,
where a short stop will be made, and
coming then to Phoenix. From the
Salt River Valley the trip will con
tinue to the coast via rail.
"There is more beautiful scenery
in the country we visited yesterday."
said both the gentlemen yesterday,
"than in any of the prospective ter
ritory this trip has taken us through.
We feel sure that Phoenix, Roosevelt
and Globe, and the auto trip through
the aptly named Superstitions will
be Included in the next tours mute
book."
Cooper and Ward left yesterday for
the east on their return trip to Bos
ton, their headquarters. There they
will compile the literature and adver
tising material incident to including
the Phoenix-Globe trip, and prepare
to advertise this part of Arizona by
means of their tours bureau.

One Woman is Kilied and Thirty-Five

ASSOCIATED TRESS DISPATCH
ST. PAUL, March 14. Passenger
train No. 4 of the St. Paul, Minneapolis
and Omaha railroad, was wrecked near
Mandots, Minn., shortly alter eight
o'clock tonight, according to reports re
ceived here. The train was enroute
from Omaha to St. Paul, when for
some reason, two coaches jumped the
track and rolled down the embank
ment. One woman was killed, and 35
injured, several fatally, it is said. A
relief train was made up here and hur
ried to the scene.
It was impossible to identify the wn
man killed. The first part of the train
remained on the tracks and proceeded
to St. Paul with the dead and injured.
The fact that both coaches were of
steel, probably saved a score of lives,
the railroad men say. A relief corps
was formed and the injured passengers
lifted through the windows and doors
of the coaches. Many were severely cut
by broken glass. The general opinion
Is the rails crumpled after the engine
and the first few coaches had passed
over.

IDE WORLD TOUR
OF
Arrival of Italian Traveler Aftc:
Journey Across Continent
Marcus J. Barone, a world-traveler,
arrived in the city yesterday, out of
New York, June 4. 1912, for a tour
of the world on foot. Mr. Bat one is
not traveling on a wager, as so many
tourists arc, but to see the world
and find out as much as he can
about its people. Mr. Barone was
born at Rome, but the greater part
of his life has been spent in this
country. He is well educated, but.
largely, self-educated. He speak -Italian,
Spanish, Russian and English,
the latter without an accent, and
speaks it far more correctly than
most persons born to that language
do. lie is accompanied by an intel
ligent collie-shpherd dog bough' of
the Cherokee Indians of North Caro
lina, after the death of a large collie
that he had especially trained for the
trip. This dog saved his life in Cuba.
One night when he was sleeping in
a cane feld on a bed of cane leaves
and did not know that, according to
( ustom. the field was to be burneu
over, tne flames began licking at his
bed when the dog aroused him by
pulling at his clothing.
Mr. Barone has a photographic out
fit and has taken hundreds of photo
graphs of objects of inteyrest along
his route. From many of these he
hdj made slide with which he illus
1 rates lecture.-!, by mean of which he
is defraying l.is expenses. He deliv
ered a lecture before the school chil
dren of Mesa and will probably ap
pear here.
His trip has been a pleasant one
for the most patt. He has hud some
unpleasant adventures, but he has
been held up only in Georgia, where
he was robbed three times. The last
lime he was held up his assailant, as
in all the other eases, was a negro.
The outlaw held the muzzle of a re
volver at his breast. Mr. Barone had
a bottle of ammonia in his hip pocket
and, uncorking it under the pretense
of taking money from his hip pocket,
he threw the stuff into the negro's
face. The gun was discharged and
the negro, blinded by the liquid, ran
shrieking away.
Mr. Barone had a pleasant time
among the moonshiners of Virginia
and North Carolina after he had
proved to them that he was not a
government spy; but. nowhere has be
encountered warmer hospitality than
among the people of Arizona.

BY HARRY WELCH
(Secretary of Phoenix Board of Trade)
In Arizona, right here in the Salt
River Valley in the south-central part
of the new state is the chance to get a
start. It is for you. A chance which
you cannot afford to overlook. You
have been promising yourself a long
time to get a place of your own.
You are tired of farming under tin
certain conditions. You are tired o
seeing all your efforts wasted on
account of unfavorable weather
your troubles can be avoided.
All

you can get a start right and go
right ahead. Think it over. Look I
squarely at the matter, and make up

press you; come to the Salt River
Valley, where welcome waits.
The United States Department of
Agriculture in one of its later reports

The '
mild winter weather, a sort of east
ern spring, means that no barns are
required for shelter, and the feed is
green the year round. Rams for
storage are unnecessary, and so it
goes on. The cow is a milker the
full twelve months; prices for but
teifat are high, and the calves are
an extra revenue to swell bank de
posits. A good cow nets a profit of
$70 to $75, and we have a record of
126 cows averaging $77,40 for milk
alone vearly.
Woman on the Farm
The woman on the farm, here has
bright sunny days most of the year.
A few cloudy days, but every day
some sunshine. Great weather for
children; out of doors all the time,
bare-legged and smiling back at the
sunlight. The farin-erafts for women
are all profitable: chickens, turkeys,
and small fruits. Rural free delivery,
the parcel post, smooth, almost level
roads, and low-cost automobiles have
helped to make the lot of the woman
on the farm., a pleasant one. Every
thing tending to further improve so
ciety is encouraged. Clubs, meeting
houses, sessions of reading, and lit- j
erary circles are well established.
