North Second avenue. MOORE ON THE CHINESE Trouble for Man Who Attempts to Col-lect License From Celestials. John Moore, the day policeman, his been following Chinese peddlers around the city for the past week in uhe hope of collect. ng the $8 due from each Celestial for the quarterly peddler's license but he 'has found the descendants of the Flowery Kingdom -o shrewd and slippery that he has collected but eight licenses, whereas there are known to be between 25 and 30 Chinamen engaged in the peddling business. 'Those Chinamen are clever'' said Mor.it- yesterday.

"They rescrt to all sorts of schemes to get out of paying the license and it is next, to impossible to catch them. 1 have been chasing them around all morning for several days and those eight licences are all I have to show for it. I "Or.e Chinaman will start in busi ness and just before the end or the quaiter he will t-t-11 out to another one of the heathens and this second Chinaman will do the same as the first am: fc on and to keep track of them is an imjxssibilit y. Then they will tear oft' their numbers, and exchange numb.rs with each other, and it to me they change their nam evoi time thre is a new moon." Th license is col.ecttd every three months, and from it the city, if a full collection is made, receives approximately $240 every thre." months, or nearly SIOOO a year, which is quite an in the conduct of municipal affairs.

niimirwiimmim'" JOBOOOAM I Arizona seems to have fewer friend. at court than it was supposed. Mr. F. I P.

Trott yesterday received a very discouraging ttlegram from Congressman O. I nderwood of the Ninth Alabama district, relating to joint slate-hood. It was called out by a telegram of inquiry sent by Mr. Trott in reference to the private dispatch from Delegate Rodey of New Mexico, and .1 one by the Associated that President Roosevelt a joint statehood bill for New Mexico and would use his influence to have one passed by the present congress. Mr.

Trott's telegram was worded as follows: "Is the president openly favoring joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexico? Are any democratic senators and congressmen advocating it? Wire answer." Mr. Underwood's reply was far from reassuring. While he said he had not been informed of the views of the president, some of the democrats on the house committee on territories were in favor of a joint statehood bill. Speaking of the situation. Mr.

Troti said he believed that it was most serious and that the territory was confronted by the greatest danger in its history. He said it was possible that there were some things that could be done to not hasten it. The most Im- jportant thing was for the political parties to cease bickering and each accusing the other of being wanting in loyalty to the territory. It is now, says, t'tne for both parties to get together and try to inform congress of the repugnance of the people of the territory to the proposed merger; of the danjage it would be to the material interests of Arizona. Mr.

Rodey had said that ffteen per cent of the people of this ten itory were in favor of joint statehood but were afraid to say so. Some of the papers had taken up this statement and pretending that then might be something in it, have asked who composed this fifteen per cent an 1 intimated that the traitors were members of the opposite party. Faid Mr. Trott: "I am a democrat. I have always taken an active part in politics and have always been loyal to my pr-rty.

I believe I know as many of the people of the territory, democrats and republicans, as almost any other man. and fully believe that there are. not fifteen per cent of the people in favor of joint statehood. I do not I know of any who are in favor of it. 1 do not think it would be favored by republicans more than by democrats.

I hope to see this question of statehood eliminated from the politics of the territory. There can be no Issue between the parties on this subject for all au practically unamnimously and earnestly opposed t6 the joining of the twj territories. This accusation by one pnrty that the other is favoring it will I "my iiujni; our case worse. i nose no make such accusations mitrht be taken at their word. The willing ears of congressmen would entertain tVvr statements that some of the people of Arizona desire the linking of the territories The thing to do is to let congress know that there is not one.

democrat or republican, who does not abhor joint statehood." Mr. Underwood will be remembered as a member of the Hearst party which visited Phoenix list year. He strong advocate of the omnibus bill a year ago and has taken a great interest in the territory. He is now a member of tie house committee on irrigation and has been a member of the committee through several terms of congress. He was one of the strong supporters of the Hansbrough-New-lands law Tor th-? reclamation of arid lands.

The fact became public in political circles yesterday that a complaint agaJnst Uity Engineer O. ('. Thompson id been tiled with the surveyor and by him forwarded to Washington, the complaint being on the ground that Thompson is holding a federal as well as mum ipal office, that V'ne duties of the latter office interfere with those of the former, and that holding the dual position is contrary to civil service rules. It was impossible yesterday to the rv.me of the party making the complaint, though it is known the complaining party is an attorney. Mr.

Thompson refuses to the matter, saying he desires to make r.o fiatenn-nt until the "jshinglon authorities have rendered their opinion, which is xp.cted to lv fur; hi uning bout ten days. Kor some time past Thompson ra; bf-en in the federal employ, holding a under the surveyor geneial. He has also been filling the nffic? of it tngineer. 'Ihe most impuiiant cf tin" charges that have been brought Thompson aiv. that his duties as city engiretr interfere vith the proper perfoi inn nee of his ledcral duties It was slated yesterday that had ifceivei a letter from genet at inquiring a.s duties as city and 125 yards of Finest Striped Oxfords, black and white combinations, in plain basket weave effects, good weight, sold up to KKr 90c.

Today, yd. Thorn p- th? sur- 10 h's-if so, to what extent they interfered with th duties- of the federal olfice In reply to this, Thompson forwarded a letter it the Mtrveyor general denying that the holding of both offices compelled hint to neglect the affairs of either, and Thompson's letter of denial, together with the complaint against him have been passed up to the Washington authorities for consideration. Tn political parlance, the question now to be settled is, what prompted the lilinsr of the complaint against the city engineer. The friends of the engineer claim that it is the outcome of the little cement contract, anent th? laying of a gutter on Center street south of Washington, which racked the brains of the city council several weeks ago. It will be remembered that in this matter Kngineer Thompson took a decided stand, and his friends now claim' that some of the disappointed ones are seeking revenge.

The history of the cement contract, which is said to be causing all the trouble, can be told in a few-winds. The council called for bids for the laving ot i.00 feet of gutter on Center street. The two cement contracting firms ofjae citv put in bills, but Kagi -ncer Thompscn advised the council that the bids were exorbitant, and upon his recommendation the were rejected, and an advertisemnt in-siited for new offers. Thompson then prevailed upon a third ccnti actor to bid upon the work, and when the proposals were opened, the third contractor offered to do the for $1.35 pr lineal foot, while the two otheis stood out for the flat rata of The contract was awarded to the lowest bidder. Fngineer Thompson then undertODk to assist the successful bidder in getting cement with which to do the work, but the two dealers ini cement in th city refused to sell to the contractor.

The engineer then prevailed upon a third firm to enter into the cement business and this fiim ordered a carload of cement which is due to airive In a few days. Thompson's friends now ass rt that the unsuccessful cement contractors are seeking revenge, but their apiears to be no foundation for their assc-r-tions, except mere suspicion. 0 0 0 iO 0 About 350 yards of Japanese Corded Kai-Kai Wash Silks, 1 in a splendid variety of combinations, including black, always sold Today, at 50 c. yard color plain 5o 10 pieces of Silk Ginghams, in blue or pink stripes, beautifully soft finished washable colors, worth up to 35c per yard.
