the gray horse Lauterborn had been
 riding. The desperadoes then left
 the horses and ran, using no short steps, either, in spite of their high heeled boots.
 Sheriff Montgomery and two depu- ties from Maricopa county and man with bloodhounds joined in the hunt. Men were sent to "cut" the trail. Un- fortunately, the latter didn't go far
 enough up one of the streams they were sent to explore, and stopped just
 short of where the fugitives had
 crossed. Otherwise the hunt would have wound up a lot sooner.
 The men kept up their tactics of keeping on high, rocky ground, avoid ing as much as possible any place where they might leave tracks, but once or twice they were seen by ranch CTS and reported. Thus the general direction they were taking was kept tab on, though whenever the officers received such information it was sev- eral hours too late to lead to a cap- ture.
 The country hunted over is rough beyond all description. The chase fi- nally merged down to north of Fort Mcdowell. Fourteen miles north of there, while Rudd---Marine had come back in the meantime to attend to his jail work-was taking in the Fort Mcdowell country in a car, Sheriff Campbell set out north toward the mountains along the Verde river on horseback. Soon Frank Colcord, Jack Payne and Vachael Anderson of Pay son had cut in behind the men, on to their trail and were following them down Alder creek toward the Verde. when Campbell headed the men off. He and Rudd brought them back, through Phoenix, in an automobile.
 At the jail Lauterborn said he was l9, IS cowboy and that he was born in Las Vegas, refusing to say what state. Sorensen said he is IS, a cow boy, born in Utah. They began kick Ing about the accommodations as soon as they were locked up.
 It IS reported that the two men sold their mounts to Lee Doyle the day before they "hired" the horses from MT. Roscow. They went back to Mrs. Doyle next day to hire the horses they had sold, but she, sus- pecting them, refused to let them have them. Lauterborn, who had been working on ranches around here, planted" a lot of potatoes for Attor- ney Frank Harrison on the latter's | kendrick Park ranch. The potatoes never came up.
 The stolen horses are still at Pine.

MEET OF COLORADO RIVER
 COMMISSION IS POSTPONED

Postponement of the meeting of the Colorado river commission scheduled for Aug. 2S, at, Santa Fe, N. M., was announced Tuesday by w. s. Norviei, water commissioner, and Arizona's member of the commission, following receipt of a telegram from Herbert c. Hoover, secretary of the depart ment of commerce and chairman of the commission, stating that he would be unable to leave Washington to at- tend the meeting.
 The message from Secretary Hoover stated that he would be unable to leave Washington to attend the meet ing as the industrial situation was such as to require his presence in Washington for the remainder of the month. MT. Hoover suggested in his telegram that the meeting of the commission be held without him with Judge Davis, New Mexico's member of the commission, as chairman. This arrangement MT. Norviel said, was not agreeable to the commission as the members felt that the meeting should not be held without Secretary Hoover present.
 MT. Norviel sent telegram to Sec retary Hoover advising him that he was not in favor of holding the meeting until the secretary could be present, and suggested that the date of the meeting be set for Sept. 20, or as soon after that date as was pos- sible. Secretary Hoover, in his mes sage to MT. Norviel, stated that if the commission did not favor holding the meeting without him, he would suggest postponing the meeting to Oc- tober 2.
 This date, Mir. Norviel said, he felt was rather late in the year as it is the desire of the commission to hold the meeting at the earliest possible date in order that the compact could be agreed upon and presented to the of the various states for their ratification at their next ses- sionS.

INDUSTRIAL CONGRESS FEARS
 CONFUSION IN AMENDMENTS

The following statement was issued today by the Arizona Industrial con gress:
 There appears to be a belief in some quarters that the constitutional amendment in regard to state bonded indebtedness proposed by the Arizona lndpstrial congress has some connec- ton with the amendment initiated through the efforts of Senator H. B. Wilkinson, providing for the building of paved road from Phoenix to the Colorado river by state bond issue of s2,500,00O.
 There is no connection between these two amendments. The amend ment proposed by the Industrial con- gress to allow the state to issue bonds up to four per cent of the total as- sessed valuation, each bond issue to be submitted to a vote of the, real property taxpayers of the state. was passed by the legislature and will be referred to the people at the special election to be held at the primaries IF, when it will appear on the ballot as No. 100. The Wilkinson amendment was initiated after the had adjourned, and will not be submitted to the people until the general election, November '.
 The passage or defeat of the bond- sd indebtedness amendment will have absolutely no effect on the Wilkinson amendment to be voted on two months later. There is no connection be- tween the measures, and neither has any bearing on the other"

way are marooned at junction points in your state because of the abandon ment by their crews. 1t is the obli- gation of the government to relieve the people who are thus shamefully subjected to hardships. If you have not facilities for the relief which know you will gladly bestow, then any forces at the command of the federal government will be promptly ordered to your assistance. Kindly advise where such assistance is need- ed"
 Col. Walter s. Ingalls,, state adju- tant general, was then at Ashfork, and was ordered by the governor to proceed immediately to Seligman and to make his report at "the earliest possible moment" The investigation was ordered, Governor Campbell said, that he might learn the true facts of the situation and take steps necessary to relieve the situation.
 Until receipt of the presidents message, l had no intimation of suf- fering among the marooned passen- gers at any point in this state," the governor declared Sunday night upon his return to the capital from Tue son.
 An Epitome of Conditions on Sunday
 The Santa Fe lines south of Bakers field, Calif., and as far east as Ash rok, Ariz., remained tied up complete ly as far as regular traffic was con- cerned, though trains manned by rail- road officials carried most of the marooned passengers from the desert back to the coast. The Union Pacific from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City was tied up except for the taking out of passengers marooned on the desert. The Western Pacific from San Fran cisco to Salt Lake City was tied up completely.
 Government inquiry into the walk outs was commenced in Los Angeles.
 A. G. Wells, vice-president of the Santa Fe system, in a statement giv- en to the Associated Press, asserted that the abandonment of Santa Fe trains at desert points was brought about by conspiracy, inhuman and lawless."
 In Needles, a train, manned by San ta F'e officials, brought all but about 100 of the passengers marooned there back to more western and less heated spot and later those who re- mained were taken east on another train. Trains continued to be held by the Santa Fe at Seligman, Ashfork and Williams, Arizona, and Albuquer- que, N. M. There are walkouts at the first two, trains merely being held at the latter ones because of the impossibility of moving them through the others.
 On the Union Pacific line there are walkouts at Caliente and Las Ve- gas, Nevada, and of firemen at San Bernardino.
 Members of the big four brother hoods employed by the Santa Fe rail- way at Winslow, went out at 8 o'clock Sunday night, according to informa- ton received by l. L. Hubbard, gen. eral manager of the company's coast lines.
 Roads in the vicinity of Joliet, H., Birmingham, Ala, and Atlanta, Ga., were badly crippled by local walkouts of trainmen and engine crews.

NEWS ITEMS
 FROM THE DAILY PRESS

A man in London tried to hang him. self. He was poor hand at it, but he died just the same. The doctor testified that there was no sign of death by strangulation, so the coro- ner duly brought in a verdict of Suicide by auto-suggestion," the first of it's kind on record. The theory is that the man believed he was hang ing himself, because he had hand kerchief looped over bedpost and about his neck, and that the convic- tion that he was being strangled suc- ceeded in killing him. It is not thought that killing ones self by thinking one is dead will become pop ular.
 London also is responsible for the story of William Skinner, a sailor, who lost his left in the battle of Jut- land. When his body was recovered the usual brass Identification disc was taken from his neck. On the re- verse of it, in words so fine they re- quire microscope for reading, is his will, leaving his all to his wife. This, the smallest and most unique will in the annals of law, has just been ad- ihescu " PiobaIc III tHc LoHuOu courts.
 The first aerial stowaway has safe- ly made his flight. One Mike Stone, of Detroit, concealed himself in the mail compartment of the aeromarine eleven-passenger plane flying regu- larly from Detroit to Cleveland, went to sleep and woke up when the motors roared. He couldn't make his pres ence known until the motors stopped, across the lake in Cleveland.
 In northern Montana, near Glacier National Park, is colony of a mill lion marmots.

MINE FARLEY
;. WREATHED IN
STRICT SILENCE
Understood, However, Miners
Are Adamant in Stand
for Wages. -
BY international News Service.

PHILADELPHIA, July 27.-Abso-
lutte silence as to the nature Of topics
under discussion in the conference
between John l.. Lewis. president
of the United Mine Workers. and
district leaders of the Anthracite and
Bituminous regions in this state. has
been maintained so far by all con.
cerned.
Outstanding In the undercurrent
Of informal talk. however. is the fact
that the miners will not goNback one
inch from their stand taken on April
1, when they walked out.
According to John Hessler, presi-
dent, State Of Indiana District, an
outcome Of the present conference,
will be another call for a conference
between miners and operators.
Today the conference between
Lewis and his Pennsylvania leaders
continues. It>was indicated by him
early today that possibly some de-
velopments would be made public.
A feature of the conference which
was held at Mr.. Lewis rooms In
local hotel. was the presence OF
secret service agents in the corridor,
who carefully noted all persons
entering and leaving.
1t is known that some members OF
President Harding's Cabinet believe,
and have so advised the President,
that the position Of the Eastern
executives in holding out on the
seniority question is an untenahle
one. None OF them have taken on
sufficient men since the strike
started to seriously interfere with
the seniority rights Of those men
who went out; at least the situation
is capable of easy adjustment, ac-
cording to their theory.

els P. Duffy, a blacksmith;

Mrs. Duffy told Vice Chan

Duffy, who parallels Longfel-

so meek that he slept in sta

should pay his wife temporary
alimony of $40 a week.
