Resolutions Adopted by Directors of
 Commercial Club.

There has been a general revival of the reports that the Fl Paso & Southwestern Railway company is again seeking an outlet to the coast and it is said that engineering corps are in the field viewing the most desirable routes for crossing south ern Arizona. The Republican some time ago called attention to this fact and suggested that the business men of Phoenix place themselves in touch with the railroad management in an effort to encourage construction via the Salt and Gila river valleys.
 It is therefore quite pleasing to note that yesterday the directors of the Commercial club. in giving this mat ter consideration, formulated and adopted a quite lengthy set of resolu- tions urging the railroad management to make a careful investigation of possible routes that would include this valley before making final determina- tion The resolutions were quite lengthy and set forth some of the ad- vantages that would naturally follow to the railway company through the building of such a line. The advanta ges that would be derived by this val ley are too well known to need ex- tended comment. It is understood the club has in mind the inviting of Dr. Douglas, who is at the head of the Phelps Dodge interests in the south west, to visit Phoenix and discuss the matter with the business men of the city. shN

coal 33A per cent and all countervail- 1 ing duties were removed from oil, nap i tha, gasoline and it's refined products i Lumber was reduced from g to $1.25 ! It is said it might have been more But there were many business inter- ests' in the south, in Maine, along the ! border and especially in the far north west which insisted that it would give great advantage to Canadian lumber if the reduction were made more than 75 cents. MT. Pinchot, chief forester,
 thought it would tend to make better
 lumber in this country if the duty were
 retained on it.
 With respect to the wool sched- ule, l agree it is too high and ought to have been reduced, and probably represents considerably more than the difference between the cost of production abroad and the cost T production here. The difficulty about the wool schedule is that there were
 two contending factors in the his tory of republican tariffs, wool growers and the. woolen manufactur- CTS, and that finally many years ago they settled on a basis by which 
 eleven cents a pound, and by which an allowance should be made in the shrinkage in the differential upon wool manufacturers. The percentage duty was very heavy, quite beyond the difference in cost of production, and it was not then desired tp secure reductions of tariff which would en- able them to get cheaper material They are protected by large duty I cannot ascribe their intense inter est to other than to deep sympa- thy with their ultimate consumers. But I am quite willing to admit that allowing the woolen schedule to re- main where it is is probably not a compliance with the terms of the platform.
 ''On the whole, however, I am bound to say that I think the Payne tariff bill the best tariff the republican party ever passed. It is a substantial achievement in the direction of lower tariffs, a downward revision and ought to be accepted as such. The high cost Of living, of which 50 per cent is consumed in food, 25 per cent in clothing and 25 per cent in rent and fuel has not been produced by the tariff, because the effect has remained the same and the slight increases have gone. It is due to a change in condi- tions the world over. Living has in creased everywhere in cost. Now. the revision downward I have favored will not destroy the industries of the coun- try. It certainly is not intended to-.

spirit of exclusion began to show it. self. Many of those present argued that the dinner should be for demo- crats alone and that republicans, pro- hibitionists, socialists and those of any other political party should be rigidly excluded. District District Attorney Bullard asked that the news paper men be admitted. which was somewhat reluctantly agreed upon
 Dr. H. A. Hughes was elected chair man of the meeting and Frank P Trott secretary. It was determined at once that the form of entertain ment should be a dollar dinner at which the democracy not only of Maricopa county but of the whole territory should participate. It was announced that Globe had already signified the intention of sending delegation of twenty-five to the din- ner. Brady O'Nein held out for public dinner, but National Commit teeman Nicholson said that his invi- tation to Colonel Bryan was so word ed that the colonel would expect to be entertained by the democracy.
 A motion was then made by C. B. Wood that the dinner be held in O'Neill hall at 10 p. m. September 23, and that Eugene Bray O'Neill be per mitted to sit fairly near the peerless one. The delicate blandishment of this proposition struck Mir. O'Neill at once and he did not commit himself in regard to donating the hall, al- though it's use for the purpose was agreed to.
 A committee of five was appointed with power to appoint sub-committees to make arrangements The commit tee is George Purdy Bullard. chair man: Selim Nicholson, Sheriff Carl Hayden. Eugene Brady O'Neill and w. D. Bell.
 As the meeting was about to break up the question of who's who in democracy" came up again, and the lines were drawn still closer. With the same care that Mrs. Astor is sup posed to use in making out her list of New York's 400" the followers of the standard segregated the sheep from the goats by passing another resolution amendatory to the first, by which Bryanites only, of whatever political affiliations, are to be ad- mitted at the door.

The Noted Mining Expert Will Come to Phoenix With Taft-Whatever Taft Wants to Know About Arizona Mines Hammond Will Tell Him.

Dr. Fred s. Pope, who has been for long time one of John Hays Ham monds chief geolOgists and who has been travelling with the Hammond party, stopped off a day in Phoenix yesterday on his way to LOrdsburg. While MT. Pope was not inclined to discuss the purpose of the visit of the Hammond party to Prescott he announced that Mir Hammond would soon be in Phoenix.
 John Hays Hammond, the highest priced expert in the mining world, will join President Taft at Salt Lake City and accompany him on the rest of his tour, probably as far as Fl Paso. He will be with tn epresident when he visits Phoenix. He was ask ed to accompany the presidential party not only because he is a life long friend of Taft's, but also be- cause of his knowledge of mining. ir- rigation, water power sites and kin dred subjects. He will leave the president as soon as the journey great mining and water power coun- try.
 Mir. Hammond left Prescott yester- day for Los Angeles. At Prescott he visited the properties of the Verde River Copper company. In the party with Hammond were A. l.. Garford.

Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon the doctors were optimistic concerning his condition, but shortly after that time Mrs. Johnsons was hastily summoned.

WILLIS J. CHAPMAN
 KILLED IN NEW YORK
Victim of Murderer's Bullet Lived in
 Phoenix Previous to July g.

Willis j. Chapman, who was for two years or more a resident of this val ley. was shot and instantly killed last Saturday night in New York City by B. H. Wilson, an old schoolmate. Willis Chapman was employed last winter as houseman at the Castle Hot Springs hotel, and also worked for some time on a ranch near Mesa City for Leonard Nets. He was quite we'll known in the valley and had numerous friends here.
 According to advices, the homicide was the result of an enmity that had existed for some years between the two men, having its origin in a trans action concerning property sometime before Chapman came west. The cir cumstances of the killing were quite unusual for such events.
 , Chapman left here July 9 of this year for his former home and shortly after his arrival he was married to young society woman named Miss Bessie Williams. The newly married couple were attending a social gather ing at the home of a friend, and it would appear that Wilson was also guest Anyhow. he met Chapman in the hall of his hosts home and, draw ing a revolver, fired at once with fatal effect Mrs. Chapman was close at hand and witnessed the shooting. her husband falling in her arms as he expired Wilson was arrested at once. making no resistance. Moreover, he would offer no defense or make any explanation at the time. telling the officers that he would explain every thing when he was placed on trial
 The above information came to Phoenix in a letter from sister, to Chapmans brother, Walter J. Chap man, who is now unfortunately in serious trouble of his own, being an inmate of the county jail, pending an investigation of the grand jury of charge made against him for forgery, and to which. by the way, he pleaded guilty at his preliminary examination. being held to answer under a bond of $500 He was arrested in August for writing check on the Valley bank in favor of $. J. Smith, to which he signed the name of Lish Pool. a con tractor He then cashed the check at the store of N. Friedman, endorsing the name of S. J. Smith. At the pre- liminary hearing before Justice Parker he waived any defense, saying he was guilty. He is a nice-appearing young man and it is hard to conceive what prompted him to do such a thing, which he doubtless now sincerely re- grets.

WILL STUDY IRRIGATION Japanese Chief Of System
 in form0sa VISITS SALL RIVER VALLEY
T. Takumi Arrived in Phoenix Yesterday to Learn His Little Lesson From Roosevelt Dam and
 Other U. S. R. s. Projects

For the purpose of making a thor ough inspection of the Roosevelt dam irrigation pproject that he may carry back to his country the ideas obtained here T. T. Takumi, chief of irrigation service of the island of Formosa, vis- ited Phoenix yesterday. The visit to this country of MT. Takumi is illustra- i've of the attitude of Japan in all modern industrial improvements. Takumi was sent by his government to learn the very latest and best meth ods of conserving water for irrigation. The Salt River valley was selected as part of his itinerary because the conditions here are in some res poets similar to those on the island of Formosa.
 Takumi arrived yesterday and at once inquired for Supervising Engineer Louis C. Hill of the Reclamation ser vice. He was told that MT. Hill was in Michigan and that he would not be back till the first of the month Con- sequently MT. Takumi will go on to Texas where he is interested in the artesian well system about Houston
 
 When the Japanese irrigationist was seen at the Hotel Adams last night he said:
 Last October I left Japan for Europe. I then went to the Irrigation congress at Spokane and then came out here because had heard so much of the Salt River valley. You smile? We have heard of the Salt River val ley in Japan. Two years ago my as- sistant engineer. at my request, was so kind as to come to this country and get acquainted with Mir Hill. His name is Sogawa. He was shown great courtesy by MT Hill and told me all about the Roosevelt dam. l determin- ed that when I came to this country I would see MT. Hill and thank him for his courtesy to my assistant Per haps he well show me the dam too.
 Tn Formosa we have six feet of rain a year but it is not spread over the months as it should be but concen- trated in three months. It is therefore my business to correct the oversight of the rain god. Two years ago the government appropriated s15,000,000 for the reclamation of 100000 acres of land. I build the reservoirs and the clouds fill them.
 "Formosa is much like Arizona but we do not raise oranges. We raise rice and cane sugar and that needs much water. Without rice Asia would perish. Fifteen years ago I was sent there by the government and found the canals primitive and full of holes. They are much better now. We have earthquakes there and that is one req son l studied California to learn the effects of earthquakes on earthen dams.
 This is my first visit to America. I appreciate the progressiveness of this country and that we have much to learn from you"
 Takomi like all Japanese sent to this country by the government, can speak English remarkably well. Some of his expressions are naive but the are all ways good English. When he was asked about the reports of recent date that Russia is mobilizing an army in Siberia he said; ''I can hardly believe it. Japan does not want another war with any nation"

NAVY OF NEW ZEALAND
It Is to Be an Important Factor in Oriental Affairs. Interesting Statements by Premier Joseph Ward in Honolulu

Honolulu, Sept. 17.-Joseph Ward. premier of New Zealand, arrived here today on the steamer Makura en route to Suva, capital of the Fiji islands. where he will be met by the British cruiser Challenge and proceed to Auckland. In an interview, Premier Ward said that in addition to the building of dreadnaught of the in domitable type for the empire at a cost of s1O,OOO, 900, New Zealand would be given three s4,OOO,OOO cruisers, six torpedo boats and six submarines.
 These, with the Australian fleet and ships attached to the China station. will give Great Britain double the strength in the Pacific ocean over all other powers, with the exception of the United States The combined Oriental powers and European powers in the Pacific, he said, wouldnOt. hay ever, equal the combined naval force of that of Great Britain and America which must maintain peace in the western ocean. Premier Ward declared lhdI tile imperial naval conference which he attended in London was the most significant war council of modern history, for it virtually provided for the peace of the world so far as pos sible concerning the Occident and the Orient
 New Zealand's fleet, he said, was to be manned by New Zealanders, with an opportunity for New Zealanders to advance in any branch of the navy service. Canada and the African colonies, he added. undoubtedly would add to the naval strength of the British empire. Premier Ward con eluded his interview with the observa- ton that the conference in London was rendered more significant be- cause of the recent German aigtation.
