AN IMPORTANT DEAL.
A Chance for the s. II. to Get TO
San Diego.


II seems almost certain that the
Pomona and Elsinore road will pass
into the control Of the Southern Fa-
ciiic. Contracts and other important
papers which will be binding were
made out at San Diego on Tuesday,
and forwarded by Wells, Fargo's ex-
press to San Francisco. 1t is said
that Attorney Montieth will not re-
turn to San Diego until these i'm
portant papers are duly signed and
delivered. II the deal is made the
Southern Pacific will obtain the
needed entry into the lower country,
for the Elsinore road runs to Warmers
Ranch, where connection can be
made with the Cuyamaca line to
San Diego. Between Pomona and San
Diego the line will run through very
fertile section, which is ut present
well settled up. It is predicted that
after reaching the Southern Pacifc's
main track the new line will cross it
between Pomona and Spadra, and
run across the Hollenbeck rancho, at
the eastern extremity of which it will
connect with the Southern Pacific's
new foothill route at San Dimas.
Railroad and business men are apx-
iously awaiting the settlement of the
deal, which at present appears to be
imminent.

THE NEW DEPOT.
Opcrasions Cramped for Want of
Material.

Material.
A HERALD reporter went over to the
Wolfskill tract to see how work on the
new Southern Pacific depot was pro-
crossing, and the following is the re-
suit OF his investigations:
The shell Of the building is quite
up as far as the woodwork is concern
ed, leaving only the filling in to be
done. 1t appears that the workmen
have been seriously delayed in their
operations by the non-arrival Of ma
terial, and only last week, fifty men
were laid off on that account. The
ironwork, mouldings, ETC., have not
vet arrived. though it was stated over
q month ago that they were en- route,
and unless they turn up shortly the
work will be again brought to a
standstill. At the present time
about rs men are working ON the
structure and il the necessary ma
terial was obtainable the building
could be finished in about six weeks
As it is, it is probable, eaid an official
Of the Company yesterday that the
work will crawl along at its present
unsatisfactory rate until the next sea-
sons rush is upon us and then we
will have to endure continuation oil
the present incommodious quarters
on San Fernando street.
A three-storied building is in course
OF erection just west OF the depot
which will be used as hotel, in ad-
dition to which, large dining. rooms
will he established on line with the
ticket Office.

Wreck on the s. P. Near
Whitewater.
PROGRESS OF THE NEW DEPOT
Indications of a Transfer Of the
Elsinore Road to
the s. p.

About 8 o'clock yesterday morning
q wreck occurred on the Southern Pa
cific at Whitewater, point on the
desert below Indio. Freight train No
% north-bound was side-tracking ac'
cording to orders, when No. 10, the
south bound passenger, came dashine
along and the engines OF the two
trains collided. The locomotives
we're badly damaged, but it is stated
that no one was hurt, from which ii
Is surmised that the engineers and
firemen saw their danger and jumped
in time to save their necks. A wreck
ing outfit was at once dispatched from
this city, and after a few hours labor
cleared away the debris. Trains are
now running on time as usual.

From stockton tOsruInre.

The graders on the Southern Paci-
fic's new line which is being con-
constructed east of the present track
from Stockton, have reached Porter
vile in the eastern part of Tulare
county. The track-layers are not
many miles behind, and in very few
months the entire line will be COM
pleted. Leaving Stockton the line
will traverse q very fertile section of
country, taking in the East San
Joaquin Valley and giving railroad
facilities to many of the flourishing
settlements that have been made
there. 1t will connect with the main
line again at Ioso, twenty miles north
OF Sumner, and will be in its entire
cou Sc about 250 miles in length.

The committee which visited the State
prison at Thomaston "Wednesday to see about
improved sewerage facilities returned from
their trip very much impressed with the
necessity of such move. Inside of the
prison walls is quarry where lime stone
rock was formerly taken out, This is filed
with water and is in n stagnant condition.
While ii does not receive the regular prison
sewerage it has nevertheless served as a
dumping ground for much of the kitchen
waste. As it now stands il is a menace to
the health of the prison inmates. The praet'-
cal difficulty in removing this cess pool has
been its location. The basin is formed in a
solid ledge to considerable depth, and in
order to drain it, sewer would have to be
cut through the solid rock necessitating a
large amount of blasting and considerable
expense What action will be taken ON the
report of the committee remains to be seen
but it is quite certail that something will be
done in the matter.
