MAP OUT ROUTE FOR NEW RAILROAD
SHORT LINE TO PHOENIX IS ASSURED, IS DEC LARATION OF E. H. WILL SON, THE MANAGING DI- RECTOR OF COMPANY.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

The Prescott and Phoenix Short Line railroad, is an assured fact, and the arrival yesterday in this city of E. H. Wilson, of Seattle, vice-presi- dent and managing director, proved that action IS under way.
 Engineers have entered the field to make a preliminary survey and arc now working south out of Turkey station, on the Prescott & Eastern Railway, which is to be the terminal point of the line. Glendale on the s. F. P. & P. is to be the entering point, and the distance between the two stations IS approximately 70 miles. Mir. Wilson went into the plans of the building of this new rail road, on quite an interesting as well as elaborate scale, mentioning the matter specifically of mines and min ing as the attractive induccment He is identified with the National Amal- gamated Copper Company which has large holdings in Black Canyon dis trict, and the line will pass through the group. The Kay Copper Co.,, also is to be tapped, and the entire eastern slope of the Bradshaws, in cluding the Tiptop fields, will like wise find an outlet. The survey as decided upon will cross the Agua Fria river where it cmptics into Black canyon, and then wcnd its course through the lower elevations of the Bradshaw range on the east end, cm- erging into open country near the old camp of Gillette and thence on to New River station. The grade win not exceed 23l per cent and in addi- ton to copper mines to be materially benefited, scores of silver-tungsten- gold properties will be afforded direct relief from isolated conditions which have proved a handicap toward en- listing development money or in giv- ing low grade output an opportunity to reach market
 The new line will cut down the dis tancc between Prescott and Phoenix by 40 miles, and will pass through what is practically virgin country.
 Mir. Wilson is to make Prescott his headquarters during construction, and all material to be used will be shipped south from this point.

(From Tuesdays Daily0

To be deserted by her husband two years ago, and to hear that he had gone to California, assumed a new name, married again and been killed in an accident, was the unique experl- encc of Mrs Lottic Lambertinc kelso of this city. A telegram from the chief of police at Fresno, Gal, re- ceived yesterday, gave Mrs. kelso the first warning of the wanderings and the fate of her husband.
 Mrs. Kelso prepared at once to leave for California, to investigate the affair. and to put in her claim for rec ognition as the lawful wife of the de- ceased. It is understood that beside his usual insurance, Kclso had a matter of S2.500 coming to him under the workman's compensation law of the State of California.
 o. L. Kelso and Lottie Lambertinc were married in Prescott by Justice of the Peace C. H. McLane several years ago. Kclso at that time was all emplove of the s. F. r. &, P. Railway Company. IL was about two years ago that the husband left Prescott and apparently dropped out of Mrs Kelso's life forever. According to the telegram received from the Fresno chief, Kelso married widow in that city .on May 20, 1916, and gave her the name of Mrs. Kelly. As Kelly he was working as a cement maker when an accident snuffed out his life It was apparently through something found in his effects that the authori- ties of Fresno learned of his first wife here in Prescott.
 Mrs. Kelly is the mother of four children by her former husband and of one by Kelso.
 Mrs. Kelso, Of Prescott, stated yes terday that she was prepared vigor- ously to contest the claims Of the second wife, to any share of the cs- tate. She secured here yesterday, . certified copy of her marriage certih- cate, letter from Chief of Police Robert Robbins, attcsting her identity and prepared to leave for Fresno i'm mediately.
 She has three small children, tho eldest being nine years old.

Eighty men of this district are to be selected, according to the order, though the number will undoubtedly be increased later. There arc two divisions in which recruits can join; the quartcrmastcrs' corps and the ma chinists' corps. Graduates from the latter arc eligible to training as pilots, from the former, as observers.
 The following is quoted from the order:
 These men will be enlisted with the greatest care, and if there is any difficulty in getting particularly good men at some of the stations the re- cruiting inspector will at once redis- tribute the numbers allowed in order to i'll the total quota assigned to his division.
 After three months service ii their work is satisfactory and they can pass an examination these men rlay '''' r2.cd quartcrmastcr, second class taviationb, or machinist's mates, sec ond class (aviation).

ID SURVEY WAR ROAD NORTH
 ID SOUTH
EVERGREEN HIGHWAY IS TO BE FOLLOWED BY PARTY OF WASHINGTON SKATERS THROUGH HERE SOMETIME IN JULY.

The existence of state of war has forced upon the people of the United States, as never before, the convic- ton that good highways are indis- pensablc as a means of defense, and, in the campaign of preparedness be- ing conducted in every nook and cor ner of the land, the need of construct ing highways so located as to be of special service in military operations is not being overlooked.
 A sense of necessity, the executive committee of the Interstate Evergreen Highway Association has proposed the extension of the Evergreen High way so as to run from Vancouver, British Columbia. to the Mexican border at Fl Paso, Texas, distance of 2,S00 miles. The route will be from Vancouver south over the Pacific highway to the Columbia river, thence east with the north bank of the Co., lumbia, and over the Snake River plateau, to Lewiston, Idaho; thence through the Snake River canyon, partly on the Oregon and partly on the Idaho side. to Weiser: thence by way of Boise. Twin Falls, Ogden, Salt Lake City, the Grand Canyon, Pres. colt, Phoenix. Tucson. Bisbec and Douglas, to Fl Paso. The advocates of this route arc impressed with it's paramount utility in military mobil- ization because of its two command ing advantages, in that, first, 1t con meets the Pacific coast and both na- tional boundaries with the food-pro- 6ucing interior, and second, it is the only route into the Pacific North west over which motor trucks could be operated every day in the year. The commercial clubs and automo- bile associations in the Pacific North west have endorsed the plans. and will assist in financing the activities of the Interstate Evergreen Highway Association. The association is pre- pairing to send a path-fnding auto mobile excursion over the whole route this Summer In the party will be representative of the Automobile Blue Book, who will make log of the route: press correspondent: one of the best known platform enter taincrs of the Pacific Northwest: B. F. Hill, of Walla Walla, Wash, presi- dent, and A. ]. Elrod. Of Pasco, Wash. secretary of the association.
 The highway commissioner Of each State intcrscctcd IS expected to con duct the party through his State. Public meetings will be held at every county seat and larger city; and con forcnces had, upon questions of prop CT location of Winter parallel detours, with county commissioners, engineers and good-roads enthusiasts in each county to be affected An effort is also being made to have a notion picture squad accompany the party and reproduce the most interesting views
 The cars will start at Victoria, B. C., in time to reach Tacoma for the great July 4th race meet; proceeding thence over the route mentioned to the southern terminus: requiring about 30 days to make the trip, in cluding stops. From Fl Paso the party will partially retrace their jour ney, and go. by way. of the National old Trails, for a visit with the good roads boosters of Los Angeles; there dispcrsing.
 The party will be in Prescott in July.

PRICE OF COPPER THIRD QUARTER
 HAS ADVANCED

Buying of copper for August and September deliveries has been so urgent since the beginning of the week that the available supply, es- pecially for the first named month, has been materially reduced. Several of the larger selling interests have advanced their prices about 1 cent per pound, and August deliveries are now quoted at 30A cents, compared with 291Z cents, or slightly better heretofore, while September ship ments are firmly held up these lead CTS at 30 cents per pound against a previous level of 2o cents.
 That the consumers are taking copper in larger volume is indicated by the reports heard from all selling agencies. It is stated that large blocks of the metal have been taken and more is wanted. In addition, some big export business has been closed and additional contracts are pending which will take even moro copper than has already been sold
 With increasing scarcity and con- tinucd uncertainty about government requirements, lead shows a strong upward tendency, although no appre- ciable gains in prices are recorded. Large producers arc out of the mar ket, and outside interests in some in- stances ask higher than quotation prices.
 There has been absolutely no change in spcltcr Futures show some interest and are now selling above the price of prompt.
