MARKET WAS GENERALLY HEAVY
In Spit* of the Heavy Undertone the
Net Losses for the Day Were Report-
ed Very Light
Associated Press Dispatch. ’
“New York. April 21.—The tension of the
last few day* In Wall street was relieved
today with the passing of the so-called
Miss/ -V Pacific affair In the place of
pred Jhant interests which it has oc-
cur / much of the week.
1 i street seems to have arrived at
ti -conclusion that the Gould interests
/ e made definite and favorable flnan-
j d arrangements and that the Rocke-
tller Influence In the Gould properties
,, a whole has been materially strength-
ened.
Humors of railway and banking wars
of reprisals in the form of severe compe-
tition by the Harriman lines and of hos-
tile moves by banking interests which
heretofore worked In harmony with the
Gould interests, were circulated, but were
scouted in well informed quarters.
The stock market today was heavy.
Reports as to the outlok for the steel
and Iron trade were especially depressing.
News from the southern Iron fields stated
that a large number of blast furnaces
had been closed and that work had been
stopped on the construction of a huge
wire mill which was being erected in
Alabama. Liquidation 111 tlie fertilizer
stocks continued with especial weakness
In American Cotton Oil. concerning which
it Is now said that a dividend suspension,
or reduction may be decided upon. United
States Steel was under pressure and
closed at about the low point of the day.
In spite of the heavy undertone net losses
on the day Were slight, largely because
short covering prevented any extensive
recessions.
The first of the March railroad reports,
that of Lehigh Valley, was given out to-
day. While the operating expenses for
last month increased 364,500, the in-
crease is far below that of former
months, being more than $176,000.
The bond market was steady. Total
sales, par value, $1,504,000.
United States bonds were unchanged

BOStON WOOL REVIEW.
Associated Press Dispatch.
21.—The Commercial Bul-
letin will say of the wool market tomor-
row:
The wool situation has quieted down
somewhat from the recent heavy pur-
chases by a large Rhode Island manu-
facturer, aided and abetted by other con-
sumers of no mean Importance, and tran-
sactions for the wek have only been
moderate, the.mills generally coming Into
the market to cover actual requirements.
Prices have been maintained on the
same low level that prevailed last wek,
there appearing to be no present neces-
sity for lowering quotations, although
some dealers think that a further decline
Is imminent. Sales of fleece wools have
been light, while territories have moved
only moderately well.
Some South American Lincolns have
been shipped abroad but It is understood
that, although the market in England is
very firm and considerably higher than
the domestic market, small profits, if
any. are likely to be realized in this way.
Foreign primary market advices are
very firm. Several well known Nevada
clips are being shown in the local mar-
ket.

Demands of ProgressiveSenators
Denied by Regulars
MNT FOURTH OF COMMITTEES
Proposition Rejected When Acted Upon
and Will Result in Widening the
Existing Breech
Associated Press Dispatch.
Washington, April 21.—Formal de-
mands made today by insurgent Re-
publican senators that they be rec-
ognized as an organization distinct
from the Republican majority of the
senate and that they be given one-
fourth of all the majority member-
ship committees and control of these
assignments were rejected by a vote
of 7 to 4 at a meeting of the senate
committee on committees. Repre-
sentatives of the regular Republican
organization in the senate determined
to check the insurgent demands af-
ter it was learned that President Taft
resented the Insurgent attitude in op-
posing policies recommended by him,
and their action in putting barriers in
the way of his renomination in 1913.
That this was the real reason for tlje
widening of the breach between reg-
ulars and insuigents was freely stated
by some of the majority members.
Thai the insurgent members of the
committee did not bolt Is said to be
due to the fact that the rejection of
the proposition submitted did not
carry with it a decision to give this
faction a less number of places than
they were entitled to In accordance
with their number, which is about
one insurgent to four regulars.
The actiort of the majority, it was
said, was intended merely as a decla-
ration that the dominant faction
would not recognize a minority of the
party as having rights under a sepa-
rate organization, while the members
thereof claimed rlgnts as members of
the Republican party.
After the committee meeting both
the regular and Insurgent forces went
into sessions which ' continued until
late In the day. Plans were made for
renewed hostilities tomorrow, when
assignments will be offered to insur-
gents as Individual Republican sena-
tors.
The contest was in connection with
a resolution introduced by Senator
LaFollette. The preamble stated the
purpose of thi Insurgents as follows:
"Whereas, ’ there Is a division
among the Republicans of the senate,
a minority of whom are known as
progressive Republicans, to-wlt: Sen-
ators Clapp, LaFollette, Bourne, Bo-
rah, Brown, Dixon, Cummins, Bris-
tow, Crawford, Cronna, Poindexter
and Works-—each division being well
recognized In the senate and through-
out the country as based upon clearly
defined differences on Important leg-
islative measures and questions of
great public interest; and,
"Whereas, the Republican senators
known as progressive Republicans
are In the minority In the ratio of
about 4 to 1; now, therefore, be It
"Resolved, by the committee on
committees that the progressive Re-
publicans be accorded by the com-
mittee on committees such propor-
tional representation upon the rom-
ryiHtcps of the TTnlteil Staten -iienztn ilS

mins and Bristow, the four progress-
ive Republican members of the com-
mittee on committees, which said as-
signment and designation shall be
approved and ratified by the com-
mittee on committees."
The LaFollette resolution was de-
bated at length, all the Republican
regulars Insisting there was no prece-
dent for the recognition of a minority
within the party. Some of them pre-
dicted the adoption of such a resolu-
tion would disrupt thf party, as simi-
lar demands would have to be dealt
with later in party conventions. The
vote on the resolution follows: For—
LaFollette, Bourne, Cummins and
Bristow. Against—Gallinger, Lodge,
Penrose, Heyburn, Warren, Smoot
and Bradley. /
Immediately rumors spread that
the insurgents would boll the com-
mittee and refuse to abide by the
committee assignments made under
any other plan, and would seek an
alliance with the Democratic minor-
ity to-overthrow the control of the
regular Republicans, but apparently
there was no foundation for these
reports. One insurgent member of
tlie committee said the future course
of the insurgents would depend upon
whether they were treated fairly by
the regulars,
The Democratic committee on com-
mittees met today. The minority
lists may he ready tomorrow.
DUN S WEEKLY REVIEW.
Associated Press Dispatch.
New York, April 21.—Dun’s Review to-
morrow will say:
Business continues to move slowly. It*
volume, though large, being much below
producing capacity andd isplaylng a lack
of Interest.
Dullness In pig Iron has become mors
pronounced and production Is on a re-
duced scale, with the leading interests
having only about 79 per cent of the fur-
nace capacity active. "Greater quietness
Is also apparent In finished material mar-
kets and curtailment of mill operations
Is reported.
Only a moderate demand Is noted In
pfc Iron and In foundry grades, the re-
stricted buying has brought quotations
for future deliveries nearer to a parity to
those for early shipments. Uncertainty
aa to prices on Iron ora had a dis-
quieting effect and a reduction of 50

Tucson, Ariz., April 21,—James H.
Simpson, who for 28 years, has been
engaged in business as a butcher in
this city, died suddenly of apoplexy
at 3:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Early In the afternkmn Mr. Simp-
son was taken 111 at his place of busi-
ness, the Washington Market on
North Sixth avenue, and went to his
home, 711 North Seventh avenue.
Shortly before 3 o'clock he was strick-
en with a sort of paralysis, caused, It
was then believed, 'from the bursting
of a blood vessel ip the head. His
death followed at 3:15.
Mr. Simpson was 04 years 'of agm
He was born at Marysville, California
in 1857, and came to Tucson 28 years
ago. For some years he worked in
the meat markets of various butchers
und at times owned markets of his
own. Through his long residence in
the city he became very well known,
and during his years In business he
amassed considerable means. He is
survived by a wife, three daughters,
and a son. .7. L Simpson.
The funeral will be held at 9
o’clock Saturday morning from the
family residence. The services will
be conducted under the auspices of
the Knights of Pythias lodge.

Oscuro, N. M.. April 21,—Oscuro is
noted for being the home of the sulphur
well. At this polnh 128 miles north of
El Paso, the Southwestern Railroad com-
pany has one of the finest wells of wn-
rertn NewM ex I co~ nurr the fhicsl snt-
phur well In the southwest. It l» fitted
up with a high pressure pump and 1* kept
constantly ready for the many locomo-
tives of the railroad which pass here
dally. In addition to being good for
use to run railroad trains, It is also fine
for the human system. A splendid bath
tub with hot and cold connections has
been installed, and all the other neces-
sities of a well appointed bath house has
been provided, so. that any one may take
a hath In a modern, up-to-date man-
ner, in as fine water for the purpose
as you can procure in Baden-Baden of
the Hot Springs of Arkansas. The wa-
ter is good for rheumatism, eczema and
other and sundry ailments to which
human flesh is ehlr to. The wetls are
960 feet deep and have been In opera-
tion for a number of years.
Oscuro Is also noted for being tbe borne
of the Chicago colony of home-seekers
who located on government land In this
valley some three years ago. Some ofi
them have Improved their claims, cunt-
muted and returned to Chicago, but the
most of them are here yet and are lend-
ing their assistance in making the wil-
derness of the southwest blossom like tbe
rose. Their Improvements are lasting
and substantial, consisting of brick,
adobe and other substantial houses, with
windmills, reservoirs and orchards, gar-
dens, vineyards, etc., etc. Scattered over
the valley In every direction, with the
average amount of rainfall in the rainy
season here, this community would be
self-sustaining, Some of the settlers are
experimenting with a system of sub-
irrigation by means of the terra eottn
tiling which they procure at Audi, 69
miles above here. So far the Jjnprove-
inent has proven entirely satisfactory.
Water can be secured lorn at from 69
feet ori down, and Iri some sections near
here water bursts ou$ of the ground In
springs The Malaga springs are, only
one-half mile from the station house.
The, soil of the valley is rich in produc-
tive matter and responds promptly to the
efforts of the hjisbandman and farmer.
Oscuro Is sheltered from the fierce east-
ern winds by the White mountain range
and the Godfrey hills which hem It in
on the. east, and the Malaga hills which
protect the valley on the north and west.
It's altitude Is 5990 feet above sea, level,
which makes it the Ideal climate for
health seeker.
We have two general stores, two hotels,
al present, which cater to the wants of
the community anil the traveling public.
We have a nine months free school, pre-
