Barrott became involved in a quarrel, Martin claiming that he held some or ders from employees working at the mines and demanded his money. He was informed that all the men had been paid and the company had their receipts; that none other than time checks would be honored, and if he had any dealings with the men indi- vidually he must look to them only. Martin became incensed and matters were worse than ever. The party of four soon after started for Tombstone and when at Hudscn's ranch were suddenly confronted by Martin, who imme ediately opened fire with pistol, endangering the lives of all the occu- pants Bullets flew thick and fast Several left their marks on the buggy and both horses were wounded. Bar rott was armed and returned the fire without effect. The horses started during the excitement and ran about a mile, when Martin was again seen coming horseback to head them eff. All the occupants then jumped out and took to the brush. Martin and Barrott were soon again exchanging compliments until the ammunition gave out The party then reunited, MT. Gaynor remaining at the mine, the others coming in last night. They reported their experience and a war rant was issued for the arrest of Martin. Fortunately no one outside of the horses was injured although MT. Barrott has momento of the occasion by bullet hole through his hat and sligh scratch on his wrist from a grazing ball.
 Martin had some dealings with the company some time since that caused unfriendliness and much feeling, set clement being made in a transfer of bullion, and MT. Fitts informs the Prospector that the company does not now owe Martin cent, the claims be- ing orders from some of the employees which he would not recognize, and so informed him.
 Word was received this afternoon that Martin was arrested at Wilcox and will be brought here at once.- Prospector.
