Mogollon wagon road route via Camp Verde Their three cars had hard trips to make in certain local itfes, but the journey proved a very agreeable one from the many inter- esting sections visited.
 Sunday afternoon the party made the final sightseeing trip over the state highway as far as the summit of the Hassayampa range, the work of building which was in charge of NIT. Lewis as a division engineer un- der the old territorial administra- ton. In speaking of this highway. for beautiful scenic effects, Messrs. Peterson and Macdonald state it is without a counterpart in the srate, and outclasses the famous driveway to the Roosevelt dam. The pano- rama of wild and fascinating seen cry eclipses that of any section of Arizona, and the closing of their long journey will be cherished for some time as one of the most agree able through what was revealed on this side trip of only twenty miles on this high line roadway.
 They are now enthusiasts to have the line built to the capital city and believe it Is serious matter to have public funds distributed 70

POSTPONE SANTA FE EXCURSION
 TO DELLS
COMMITTEE IS TO MEET AND DECIDE UPON A DATE FOR PICNIC WHICH THE RAIN SPOILED
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

The heavy downpour yesterday morning upset the elaborate arrange ments made by the Santa Fe em- ployes for their second annual La bor Day outing to Granite Dells. With every indication on the pre- ceding night pointing to record at tendance at the pleasure grounds, the committee in charge was in high glee. And then came the big shock.
 The first downpour was termed the ordinary Arizona shower" But when it continued and the clouds grew darker the members of the committee put their heads together and waited. When the first train was scheduled to start it was still pouring "like blazes" The commit tee decided to cancel that trip, the significant proportions of the ven turesome present at the depot hast ening the committee to this con- clusion. The continued downpour around 9 o'clock determined the committee upon one thing-to call off the excursion until later date. It was apparent that even though the rain should suddenly cease the pleasure grounds would be too damp.
 Hundreds of Prescottonians had anticipated spending the day at the dells and many were the queries about II o'clock as to whether the excursion had been postponed. Three special trains had been arranged for, but it is unlikely that this num- Der would have been sufficient 10 accommodate the crowd which in tended going.
 When asked regarding the com mittee's future plans in connection with the excursion, one of the mem No-s declared that the committee would hold a meeting tonight and would at that time fix the date for the big affair. It is unlikely that next Sunday will be selected, inasmuch the Moose excursion 10 Clarkdale is scheduled for that time. Either the following Sunday or September 21 will probably be chosen.

R. NJ. Martin, president of the Climax Mining Company, has con cluded his inspection of the prop erty on the Hassayamapa and re- turned to Los Angeles.

Additional particulars of the shoot ing afray at Kingman, in which Neal Broaded, lately of this city, was the man behind the gun," are contained in the last issue of the Kingman Miner. as follows:
 Last Saturday evening, about T o'clock, Neal Broaded shot and se- riously wounded Joe Marks and James Reyes and slightly wounded Orville White in the Depot saloon The shooting was done by pump shotgun, three shots being fired. The details Of the shooting as we have learned, were that during the evening Marks and Broaded en- gagged in a game of stud poker in a back room of the saloon. Broaded lost, and having been drink ing, concluded that Marks had cleaned him by dishonest means. Leaving the saloon he went to other places and filled up with more booze and then went to his cabin on the south side Of the railroad and se- cured the shotgun, returning to the Depot saloon. Marks was still in the back room talking to some men and as soon as Broaded appeared he commenced firing. The first shot apparently struck Reyes, who was sitting in a chair, the charge going through his right arm tear ing out the muscles and into his back above the kidneys. A few of the shots also struck Marks, who was trying to get away. As Marks went through the door Broaded fired again. the shot striking Marks in the shoulder, grazing his back aand tearing a large piece of flesh from his hip. The muscles of his right arm were also torn away. Marks fell to the floor. but got to his feet and ran toward the front door of the saloon, Broaded again firing at him, but the charge of shot struck the front door, a few of them striking Orville White in the leg and hip. Quite num- Der of men were in the place at the time, but fortunately none other were in the line of fire.
 "Broaded gave himself up to Dep uty Sheriff ]. C. Lane and the in jured men were immediately put un- der care of physicians. Reyes was hurried to the Santa Fe hospital in Los Angeles and Marks to the local hospital Sunday evening Marks was sent to Los Angeles, where it is understood he is get ting along all right and will prob ably recover if blood poison does not intervene.
 "Broaded is in jail and will have a hearing sometime next week, it being understood that witnesses will be able to appear at that time.
 Marks only recently came in from the Frisco camp where he had been working as a miner. He IS said to be a quiet fellow and not addicted to gambling Reyes just happened to drop into the place after the game was over and was talking with some of the boys when Broaded, crazed with drink, came in and turned loose on the crowd. y

PROBE TAXES
CITY AND COUNTY
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MAY
CARRY ON AN INVESTIGATION
FOR GOOD OF COUNTY.
Would Show Receipts and Expendi-
lures With View of Attracting
Attention to Latah County.

Probably one of the most important
subjects yet taken up by the chamber
of commerce this year will be discuss
cd at the luncheon tomorrow when
Chairman NJ. e. Lewis will outline a
plan under cosideration for making a
minute investigation of the source of
city, school, county and state taxes
effecting Moscow and Latah county
and investigate the expenditures.
The subject is one that has been
broached for some time past by
prominent Moscow citizens with a
view of getting such data in shape 30
that it may be used for publicity pur-
roses in Strengthening the confidence
of the public in the county.
Show Economic Side.
The investigation will be made. not
because of any suspicion being di-
rected against public officials in the
expenditure of public funds, but who'll
ly for the purpose of making the pub
lie acquainted with the financial con-
dition of the county as well as TO snow
the economical side of such city,
school, county and state expenditures.
The subject is one regarded as
step forward in community develop
ment The growth and development
of the city and county depends or the
problems of taxation, whether it Is
high or low, and whether the funds "-
rived from taxation have been secured
through methods as would indicate
good business judgment. Chamber OF
commerce officials believe that pres
ent public officials have used their
best endeavors in carrying out ihe
will of the people in such matters and
the turning of the spotlight cn the
financial condition of the city ana
county cannot but aid in attracting
favorable attention to Latah county
by possible homeseekers and inves-
tors.
