Upon this rostrum the judges sit behind

these tables. The judge sits at the center

prosecuting attorney, and at his left is the
clerk. All three have little paint boxes

Pacific Companies are now doing their
utmost to make up for lost time.

slight washout on the Ballona diyis-
ion was finished early Saturday morn,
ing, and trains will run to that place
in the future without interruption.
The railroad officials of both COM
panies feel thankful for the present
cold spell, as it will prevent the snow
on the mountains from melting SO fast
and to be OF considerable damage to
their lines, and should the weather
remain clear and slightly cold for a
few days the snow will all disappear
and there will be no cause for fear on

ANOTHE Err NEW RAILROAD
10 Run from Chino to Redendo
Beach.

For some time past the people own
ing property at Redondo Beach and
in the country lying between that
place and San Bernardino, have been
talking of building railroad running
from the latter city to connect with
the Pacific Steamship Company's
steamers at the Iron Pier. The matter
has been most thoroughly canvassed, ,
and all the property owners are quite
favorable to it. The idea is to
build a railroad "across country"
that will open up much valuable land
to settlement. Stating At Redondo
beach the road will run east past the
Cerritos to either Artesia or Norwalk,
and perhaps to Whittier, thence
through the Chino Rancho to River
side and San Bernardino. A road
with this route would supply long
felt want, and Would pay from the
beginning. The persons III Charge
are most thoroughly in earnest and
state that it is quite likely the road
will be built.

The Prospective Southern Termi-

Much gossip has been going the
rounds, that the Santa Fe Company
was fighting for San Diego against
Loa Angeles, but, after making a most
deiigent search for something to con-
firm the rumor, the HERALD's repre-
sentative arrived at the conclusion
that there was no foundation in it..
While making the investigations
however, most important discovery
was made, which has been slightly
mentioned in these columns before.
It referred to Redondo Beach and it's
future as railroad terminal. The
directors OF the Santa Fe Company
ha We for long time been studying
how they could get their freigh,
through to San Francisco without
turning it over to the Southern Pacific
Company at this point, and without
going to the additional expense oi
shipping it to San Diego and ther
back by steamer to San Francisco
To remedy this, the company decided
TO build line OF railroad to Redondc
Beach, which connects with the Bal
Iona branch at Inglewood and runs
down to and upon the pier at Redondo

striking against the lever starts the
