$500 ADDED TO RE-
 WARD FOR MURDERERS
(From Thursdays Daily0


 Amusement and horror at the cold blooded murder of John Drain has gradually changed into calm though determined desire by the residents of Seligman to leave no stone unturncd in running down the criminals. For two days after the awful crime was discovered, Selig- man was a seething haven of ex- citement and mob rule would not have been unlikely had the crim- inals been caught. But Seligman has cooled down and from all hooks and corners of the town are coming in offers to lend every aid in capturing the perpetrators of the awful deed.
 Yesterday an additional $500 was added to the reward of $1000 all ready offered for the capture of the criminals. Of this amount. $100 each was subscribed by Frank Dick erson, Postmaster Pitts, and James Drain, all of Seligman. Pitts broth CT was recently killed in a Selig- man shooting and Drain is a neph- CIV of the murdered watchman. The remainder of the additional $500 re- ward is offered by relatives and friends of the murdered man. Of the $l00O reward previously offer ed. S250 was advanced by Michael Mcbride, former Seligman post master who killed a man while he was trying to break down the door of his establishment.
 An investigation disclosed the fact that the postofice was not tempered with in in any way. In- spector Dutton was ready to offer a substantial addition to the re ward in behalf of the government if the office had been robbed.
 The sheriff's office is following upI a number of new clues, and Sheriff Charles C. Keeler left yesterday for Flagstaff on the trail of two sus- poets.

Major Piclrell accompanied him as far as this city. Mir. Douglas also impartcd the in formation to friends at the depot that on Wednesday morning the crosscut from the 1200-foot level had penetrated another body of ore, fourteen feet in width, which add cd additional interest to the poSsi- bilitics of the proposition. The zones being penetrated, he said, are yet in secondary condition, and con siderable development is necessary to conclusively prove the existence Of a permanent copper mine. At any rate, he said the Little Daisy at last has the earmarks of big prop erty, and the showing is more than was to be anticipated. Exploration will be energetically continued Mir Douglas came from the south to make a special examination of un- derground conditions, this being his hrst trip in several weeks.

 Another strike has been made m the Little Daisy at Jerome, and from sources of a private nature it was learned last night that the new ore body being cut into far eX- ceeds that of few weeks ago.
 News of the latest development, however, has not reached general circulation, but is well founded and is by far the most important item given out since the present man. agement assumed charge.
 Significance is attached to the sit uatiaon underground at the present for the reason that James s. Doug las, passed through Prescott Mon day night from Douglas, accom- panied by his consulting engineer, George Kingdom, of Bisbee, and both were joined here by Major A. I. Pickrell, the objec being to make a joint examination of the zone where the latest development excltes admiration. The new ore body IS some distance from where the origi- nal discovery was made, and IS pro nounced richer in copper and ot far greater extent than where the first strike was made. Whether it was encountered in drift from the main working shaft. or by crosscutting, was not learned Reports continue to be received from the camp that the Daisy is practically a proved property, and the latest develop ments only add to the intense in terest manifested in mining circles.

 Voluminous documents accompa- nied the filing of suit in the Stu pcrior Court yesterday by the Santa Fe railroad against the County of Eavapai as the result Of the alleged over-assessed valuation of the cor poration's grant lands in this coun- ty. The complaint alleges that tax es amounting to S50S1.SO were paid in excess of the amount due for 1914.
 The action is the climax of a long-standing dispute between the railroad and county over the valua- ton Of the grant lands. When the railroad was built through Yavapai, it was granted every odd section of land along the line. Since then the value is declared to have been increased substantially. .a
 Following the assessment of the lands by Assessor Tom Campbell, the railroad filed a complaint but the Tax Commission ruled with Mir. Campbell and the assessment, which required the payment of the alleg- ed superfluous sum of over S5000. was allowed to stand. The action in the Superior Court is the direct The assessment on 328- 55909 acres is involved in all. Nor ris and Mitchell represent the plain tiff.
