Recent appeals filed the amount actually invested in Tho property. The railroads on the contrary contend that the valuation that should be placed upon their property is the amount that would be necessary to reproduce it at present prices of labor materials and land. The difference Between these two plans of valuation when applied to All the railroads is enormous. The commissions plan it is estimated War declared on Geronimo braves party of thirteen heavily armed men take Trail against bandits Douglas ariz., Jan. 5�? own trekking into the wild ravines of the mexican mountains South of the Border Here Francisco fimbres today was leading a party of twelve men Bent upon finding the rendezvous of a band of Apache indians with whom they expect to find fimbres kidnapped son. The expedition which carried supplies for two weeks was authorized by gov. Fuasto Topete of Sonora to Hunt Down and wipe out the band. The son of fimbres who is a Sonora cattleman was carried away by the hostile Apache band in october 1926, when the family was set upon while Riding to the fimbres Home on bavi Spe River. Mrs. Fimbres was killed and her body carried away. The cattleman and a daughter survived the attack and escaped to their Home but mexican officials at Agua Prieta mexican Border town near Here last night declared that two other persons were captured in the attack. The officials believed these persons also were being held prisoner by the apaches who live in the Rocky ranges which form the Border Between the states of Chihuahua and Sonora. The Agua Prieta officials said governor Topete was moved to Hunt Down the apaches by the additional reason of recent Large property losses in the bavi Spe country. Evidences pointed to the wild Barid As responsible for raids in which Large droves of cattle had been stolen. The apaches Are the surviving descendants of the notorious Geronimo band which forty years ago terrorized Southern Arizona. The band was broken up after Many were captured by the United states soldiers. Apache survivors entrenched themselves deep in the mountains and continued their forays.

This Gratifying state of affairs it was taken for granted was notably helpful in bringing about the betterment announced today. Of about $25,000,000,000 for All the railroads. The Railroad plan according to responsible financial journals would practically double that value. Southern Pacific sues this estimate is corroborated by against the commissions valuations of individual roads. During the last week for example the Southern Pacific has filed a Brief claiming that the value fixed by the commission of $613,000,000 is unjust and unreasonable and should be increased to $1,375,000,000. In addition to the differences arising from the application of divergent theories of valuation the Railroad demands an allowance of $85,000,000 for a going concerns value. In the Case of the railroads alone there is therefore something like $25,000,000,000 at stake in the decision of this Case. But we hat the supreme court does in this Case will affect not Only the railroads but every other Public Utility. State commissions and state courts alike will have to Bow to the findings of this great tribunal in fixing Telephone tolls Street car fares and rates for electricity Gas and water. 25 billions at stake the Federal Trade commission has estimated the value of these Public utilities in 1s22 at $20,000,000,000. Since at least $5,000,000.-0 h have. Been invested in their expansion and improvement. No one has yet attempted to estimate How the value of these utilities would be affected by the application of the divergent methods now being fought out before the court. It appears certain however that the a reproduction value theory advocated by the railroads we Ould not Benefit the other Utili-1 ties in any thing like the same degree that it would the common carriers. O party w Ould disappear if the situation and forces which nominated governor Smith and controlled his Campaign continue to dominate the party. The letter was addressed to governor Roosevelt of new York who had congratulated Box on his re election and suggested that the daily should maintain a Strong National organization adopt a constructive program and continue an Active Campaign. After stating what he believed to a e the issues in the future. Box said a the situation Curmi ivring in the nomination of governor Smith and Secreta w Hoover and the election of the latter was a calamitous political miscarriage. If the situation and forces w hich nominated governor Smith and controlled the Campaign continue to dominate the party Texas and the entire South will cease to be democratic the East will not be cop trolled the West will be permanent estranged and the party will break up some of its voters going to the Republican party x x and others becoming o film actor Dies Glendale.

Becoming in reality a question Mark of the skies As it soared toward dirigible records after breaking All existing air plane endurance records the tri motored of Kucer still held Back the solution of whether Given unlimited fuel and supplies men or motors would crack first in continuous flight. Having firmly tested its wings in overcoming extremely troublesome weather motor and fuel problems the question Mark at 2 26 a. In. Today passed its ninety first hour in the air. It then had supported its conquering Crew of five aloft for More than a full Day longer than Man Ever flew before in an air plane. At Dawn tomorrow morning if the thus far smoothly functioning 225-horsepower motors continue their uninterrupted droning the question Mark will have eclipsed All existing higher than air endurance records and will then become supreme in the air. Only one record left the dirigible endurance record of 118 hours made several years ago by the French owned Bix Mude will be passed at 5 26 a. Rn., sunday morning. Several hours earlier the Crew will have claimed the record of 111 hours 46 minutes made by the Graf Zeppelin in its recent flight to America.

The operation was the fourth successful night refuelling Contact made since the ship left this Airport at 7 26 a. Rn., january i under orders to remain up As Long As the motors ran. The Transfer seemed to assure a flight lasting at least until Daylight As the ship apparently now has put behind its bumpy air Cloud and fog Banks of two Days ago which threatened life of the flight. During the past 24 hours major Carl Spatz in command has shown a growing tendency to hold the plane close to this port so that in the event it is forced Down the Crew would not be robbed of official credit for breaking All previous air plane world endurance records. International aeronautic regulations specify a ship must land where in took off to gain official recognition for a record breaking performance. The ship returned Here yester Day from the Imperial Valley to which drear territory it was driven thursday when fogs obscured vision along the coast and nearly caused a shortage of fuel.
