CITE ARIZONA EASTERN FOR CUTTING SERVICE
Gournal-Miner Capital Bureau

PHOENIX, Aug. F. - Summary action has been taken against the Arizona Eastern Railroad company by the Arizona corporation commits sion for its alleged refusal to comply with the orders of the commission respecting service on the Florence Hayden Winkleman line. The com pany has been ordered to reinstate daily service, and its officers have been cited to appear before the com mission and show cause why they should not be punished for contempt. In addition to this w. J. Ga1braith, the attorney general, has been in structed to take such legal action as may be necessary in order to enforce the orders of the commission.
 A few days ago it wa sannounced by the commission that the Arizona Eastern had filed an application to reduce its passenger, mail and ex- press service on the Winklcman line to three trains week each way. AL most immediately strong protests were filed by the business men of the three towns affected and the com mission notified the railroad that its would be denied pending ! formal hearing.
 Regardless of this notification, it is claimed, the railroad announced in the Phoenix press the change of schedules, effective August 10.
 When Amos A. Betts of the com mission ascertained from the railroad that it was their intention to curtail the service before a formal hearing was had in the matter he gave them one hour in which to re- 5cind their action, and then issued the i formal order.

PIONEER HOME BEST
 YET, SAY 4. (. (. MEN

An ideal home conducted in an ideal way"
 This is what Amos A. Belts and D. F. Johnson of the Arizona cor poration commission think of the State Pioneers Home and its man. agement. The commissioners paid a visit to the home on the occasion of recent hearing at Prescott and have been commenting on their fav- orable impressions ever since.
 Tt was certainly gratifying to learn that the old-time settlers of Arizona, the men and women who helped establish civilization here, are so comfortably housed and so well looked after" said Commissioner Betts, Nothing is wanting looking to their comfort and they all seem so perfectly contented and happy. The home atmosphere is really won derful"
 We were conducted about the home by Mrs. Shea, wife of the able superintendent, George A. Shea, and 1 want to say that everything was spick and span," testified Commis- sioner Johnson. "There wasn't the slightest trace Of dirt or untidiness discernible anywhere. The entire premises are kept in immaculate con- dition. Both Mir and Mrs. Shea are amiable and kind and possessed of rare ability when it comes to the of an institution Of this kind. Institution is the wrong word, 1 guess, for the guests never think of it but as a home, and that's what it is-a Well-governed home in every sense of the word"
 The commissioners talked with many of the guests and listened with interest when they recounted incl dents of the trail in the old Apache days when Arizona territory was a bowling wilderness. They were es- pccially interested in the story of John K. Lyons, aged v, of Cochise county, the man who carried General Stonewall Jackson from the battle field. Lyons was wealthy at one time. He had 12,000 head of fine, sleek cattle i'll old Mexico. The Car ranzistas seized them and Lyons was forced to flee for his life. He has a claim against the Mexican govern ment and expects favorable action.- Arizona Republican.

$2.72. Los Angeles gets a rate of $1.66H, and the railroads are now
 seeking to cut this to $1.35, in order, as they claim, to meet water com petition.
 One point of special interest brought out at the hearing at Boise the other day was the statement by railroad representatives that there is no water competition on sacked wool; that boat lines were only ac- cepting baled wool. Following this came showing that 98 per cent of the wool is shipped east in sacks, which means that the railroads them selves admit that there IS no water competition on 98 per cent of the wool.
 J. w. Mount, representing the transcontinenta1 railroads, testified at the Boise hearing that the proposed $1.35 rate was a reasonably compen- satory one, and when asked if that rate included the cost of service, taxes, uncollectable revenues and in terest on investment he answered yes. In view of this admission the Arizona representatives will seek to know the reason why an even smaller rate would not be reasonably com pensatory for points in Arizona, 800 to 1000 miles closer to the point of destination.

SUIT HOLDS UP
 ROAD BUILDING
Smith and Hooker Insist Upon Decision Before Gillelen Pro- ceeds With Proposed Saving of 2 1-2 Miles Ash Fork Road
From Thursdays Daily)

Work on the Del Rio-Drake sec ton of the Prcscott-Ash Fork road
 has been halted and incidentally all
 other projected road building has
 been stopped as a result of a dispute
 at Tuesdays meeting of the county 1 highway commission.
 Frank Gillelen of the firm of Olm-
 sted & Gillelen, the consulting engi- neers of the board, appeared before
 the meeting and showed how a sav- ing of 2A miles could be effected by establishing a new route. Mir. Gillelen had just completed a recon naiSance survey and said he found that an arc of the route which fol- lows the railroad line could be elim- mated by leaving the railroad and running on a straight line northerly. The arc is six miles long while the cutoff saves a distance of two miles. Near Drake, another reduction of half mile can be easily effected
 The engineers recommendation were so obviously beneficial and economical, according to the com mission, that the entire membership agreed that the new survey should be made Mir. Gillelen then asked that the commission place at his dis posal one of its surveying force and it was then that Commissioners Smith and Hooker protested, assert ing that they would not consent if MT. Gillelen was to have charge of the work. Smith and Hooker in sisted that all proposed road con- struction be stopped until after the injunction proceedings to stop the commission and county treasurer from proceeding un'~ the engineer contract shall have been disposed of by the courts.

PHOENIX, Aug. 11.-D. F. John son, chairman, and other representa- tives of the Arizona corporation com mission, are attending a hearing at Los Angeles today before Examiner Eddy of the interstate commerce commission relative to the rates on wool. Commissioner Loren Vaughn is also in attendance, as well as D. R. Johnson, rate expert with the commission who will take the stand. The Arizona Wool Growers associa- ton will be represented by its presi- dent, Hugh Campbell, and by F. A. Jones, former member of the cor po-a;ion commission, acting as coun- sel.
 This hearing is one of a series which is being held in inter-mountain territory to consider the protests against the application of the rail roads for a reduced rate on wool shipped east from the Pacific coast terminals In view of the fact that the sheep men consider that already they are grossly discriminated against, every effort will be put forth to combat the proposed rate, or to se- cure a proportionate reduction in the rates from Arizona and other inter points.
