forty-one men into the camp to take the positions of the union men who refused to work and who were Instrumental in causing a shutdown of the plant Charles Reynolds the civil engineer of this city was In a buggy ahead of the four-horse rig which carried the miners As the outfit entered Harrison Gulch a bunch of union miners was noticed at a spot near the road One of them Norman left the crowd and walked into the road to intercept the newcomers He stood In the way of the rigs and Reynolds giving his horses the reins compelled Norman to get out of the way After rig had passed however Norman again sprang into the road and caught hold of the bridle of one of the horses in the four-horse team He tried to swing the team around but at the very emphatic and earnest command from Superintendent McIntosh to let go he did so using some loud language In retaliation however Afterwards Norman was arrested ior disturbing the peace He was taken before Justice Hammana and Charles Reynolds who Is consulting engineer for the Midas Company appeared for the company He asked for a change of venue on the grounds that Justice Hammans was a material witness he having seen the disturbance and tried to get Norman to keep quiet The change was granted and the case will come up before the Justice at Ono The mine and mill is now working smoothly all Incoming stages are being guarded to prevent the agitators from causing trouble and all peace disturbers are being subdued Plenty of -ore is being taken out and the stamps will now drop regularly The wages paid at the Midas are as follows: Muckers

car of the northbound train at noon today they were treated to a little excitement which was not down on the schedule Qne of the men threw an innocent-looking gripsack on the floor when there was an explosion and a bullet whizzed past the head of the baggageman and bur-itself in the side of the car The men thought for a time that they had hold of an Infernal machine and showed some reluctance In approaching the valise It did nothing but smoke however and so one of the men took his life in his hands and opened the grip In it he found an assortment of clothing and down at the bottom was a large 38-caliber Derringer six-shooter The owner had evidently placed the gun in the valise while It was loaded and cocked either from thoughtlessness or design The baggagemen removed the other cartridges from the weapon and put out the fire which had attacked the clothing put the gun back and closed the grip and sent it on its Journey The question now is will the man who had the nerve to put a loaded and cocked revolver in a valise he intended to check have the nerve to look to the railroad company for payment for damages done his valise and Modesto News Hatler Meyers Huntley Bldwell Ralston

not given a chance to display their talents in that direction because when the contest was announced there was no team to contest and the event was given to Redding by default Red Bluff was well filled with visit ors from all directions and the field trials were witnessed by hundreds of people who with horns kazoos and other implements of noise rooted and bleached for their friends The arrangements at the track for the sports were well made and the officials to decide and manage the trials were well selected They were: Wllsle Martin Chico referee Albertson Redding starter Smith

heard about the case the next aftnw tfiA hAmfpMs Uft tiaa Mail after the homicide He has road A New Teacher Mrs McLaughlin is now principal of the West Redding grammar schools She took the position Monday morning McCarthy who nad been principal had some trouble with Principal Sweeney of the Redding schools and as a result his resignation was tendered and accepted Mrs McLaughlin will finish the present term which will end in two weeks pub-lisbed accounts about the caes bet does not remember much about it formed an opinion the first time he heard about it but dropped the Ion he had because he found out was wrong He thinks he opinion about the guilt or Redding may in the very near future benefit directly by the deal that haa Just been consummated between Harrlman and Ripley whereby the Southern Pacific and Santa Pe Companies have come to an agreement that will enable those two companies to work in harmony in the fu- tare and build and operate lines Jointly in Northern California They have entered into a compact wherein it is provided that the two transcontinental lines will hereafter have an equal interest in all transportation projects in Northern California It is a deal that deprives Harrlman of absolute mastery of the situation In Northern California for in the agreement Ripley as president of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Company secures an equal interest with Harrlman in the California Northwestern Railway and the North Shore Railroad which have lately passed to the control of the Southern Pacific magnate through the mediums of Henry Hunting-ton and William Herrin Hero after the Santa Fe will have a say in all matters pertaining to the extension or construction of new railroads in Northern California In effecting a consolidation of interests along the coast Harrlman makes these concessions to-Ripley: An interest in the California Northwestern allway between San Francisco and Willltts and its Sonoma Valley Onemeville Donahue and Sebastopol branches An interest in the North 8hore Railroad between aSn Francisco and Cas-adero and its Mill Valley and San Rafael branches An interest in the rlghtof-way for idflittanmi branches of those roads and for the extension of the California Northwestern'! main line northward in the direction of Eureka An Interest in the Eureka and Klamath River Railroad In which Harri-man acquired a part ownership from A Hammond and which by reason of a recent decision of the courts controls a valuable portion of the bay shore around Humboldt As a part of these concessions Ripley on behalf of the Santa Fe makes over to the Harrlman syndicate: An interest in the San Francisco and Northwestern Railway which was Incorporated a year ago for the pur-poae of taking over the Eel River and Eureka Railroad and the Pacific Lumber road An Interest in the rights of way recently acquired by the Santa Fe for a proposed line from Antioch northward along the Sacramento river to the city of Sacramento and equal ln- terest in the Island purchased between and Antioch by way of which the Santa Fe purposes to establish a bay ferry service Harrlman will proceed to extend the California Northwestern line northward from Willltts and Ripley as soon as the weather will permit will start the Ban Francisco and Northwestern southward from its present terminus near Fepperwood to a point farther south yet to be agreed upon where the two roads will be connect ed and thus furnish a through line trom Ban Francisco to Humboldt bay through a country rich in redwood timber In this way the Southern Pacific Company and the Santa Fe win gefa an equal footing in the northern country through which both have been to build competing mm at ib expense that their respect tve engineers have estimated will nach into many millions of dollars This deal has unquestionably put an end to the possibility of a parallel line being constructed by the Santa Fb up the Sacramento! valley to aing but it opens a field for another project and according to railroad men who believe they understand part of the plans of the companies under the new compact the Redding and Eureka road may now become a reality With both companies working In hirmony and the extension of the mad up to Eureka It Is believed that a line will be run east from Eureka to tap the groat timber regions ot Humboldt Trinity and Western Shaa- ta counties and connecting with the Southern Pacific main line at Redding This line haa been projected and talked about before but It Is believed pader the new plans of the combined railroad Interests the scheme will be parried through At all events the people of Redding aa well as those of Eureka are ho lng for the building of that line and wUl do what they can to get 1L of the defendant He has
