THE RAILROADS.
Changes in Time by the
Southern Pacific.
TWO DAILY TRAINS TO TUSTIN,
SnOw-Sheds on Fire on the Cen
tral and Union Pa
cifc Lines.

A change of time is shortly to be made
in the local service of the Southern Pa
cific. The train that now leaves for
Long Beach and San Pedro at P. NJ.
will leave fifteen minutes later, and the
train that now leaves Long Beach at :35
A. M. for this city will leave at ;25 A. NJ.
A corresponding change will be made in
the departure Of the San Pedro train,
which will leave at 7:20 A. NJ. instead OF
at 80, and will arrive here at s :35 A. NJ.
Regarding the new line to Tustin,
which is to be opened for traffic on the
18th inst, it is announced that two
round trips will be made day from this
city, the trains leaving here about 8 80
A. M. and p. NJ, and returning arriving
here about 8 A. NJ. and 4 P. NJ. The Tus-
tin line will have its own rolling-stock.
and the trains will connect with the
Santa Ana service after the style of the
Long Beach.Sa Pedro line. The list of
fares has not yet been made out, but it
is said at headquarters that the charge

THE FREIGHT TURMOIL.
Goods Can Now be Billed over An
Trunk Line.

Goods Can Now be Billed Over Any
Trunk Line.
Shippers are breathing easier, for the
announcement has been made that in
in spite of the manifesto by the trunk
lines, goods will be billed to or from any
Eastern point under the rates designated
in the new transcontinental tariff. The
Southern Pacific will, however,
only do this over the lines
embraced in the Erie Dispatch
and by the Sunset system, but the Santa
Fe say that they will protect bills of lad
ing over any road. This, it is said, is
being done at expense to themselves, as
the trunk lines demand more recon-
pense than the pro rata offered by the
association, and of course any line using
their tracks is compelled to make up the
difference between the established pro
rata and their demands.
A dispatch was received from Chicago
yesterday stating that declaration has
been made there that the Pacific Coast
shippers, patrons of the Southern Pacific,
have been allowed to designate points in
the West from which they buy certain
commodities, and dictate low rates on
these commodities for shipment to San
Francisco. At a meeting of the Pacific
Coast Association yesterday, it was set
tied that whenever it was decided to add
any point to the benefit of the Commo-
dity tariff to the Pacific Coast, notice
must be at once given Chairman Leeds
OF the Transcontinental Association for
ratification.

TOURNEY vs.. TOURNEY.
An Application for the Payment o
Attorneys, Fees.


Attorneys Fees.
An application for the payment of
attorneys fees by Mrs. Tourney, in the
case of Tourney vs.. Tourney, came up
for hearing in Judge .Hutton's court.
Mrs. Tourney alleged that she was un-
able to pay her attorneys fees, amount
ing to about 81 900. The following facts
we're brought out in court: In 1881, and
for many years previous, Mr.. Tourney
and his wife lived in Sonoma county, and
had well-stocked ranch OF 32O acres.
They could not live happily together, so
concluded to separate. He gave her the
ranch and he took two thousand dollars
and came south. According to Tour
ney g affidavit the ranch and stock in 's1
was worth about $4,000; that when he
gave his wife the place they had verbal
agreement that she would never ask for
aid or bother him again. At that
date there lived at the house two of
their children, a daughter aged 13 and
a son aged II. At later date Mrs.
Tourney sold the place for less than
$4,000, and after paying off two mort
cages and some other debts she had but
little money left. During all these years
she had supported herself and invalid
daughter. In her affidavit she denies
that the ranch left her was even worth
one half of $4,000; that they had never
agreed to live apart, as at the time of the
transfer of the ranch they were already
separated. The plaintiff, in her affidavit,
says she believes Tourney to have $25 900
worth OF property near this city and 800
acres OF land in San Bernardino county,
worth about $4,000. She asks that he
pay the attorneys fees. Judge Hutton
took the matter under advisement.

A SPECK OF WAR.
The Trials of Two Families Ven.
tilated In the Courtroom.

Two Of the first families of Garvanza,
the Smiths and the Corners, ventilated
their difficulties in Justice Kings court
yesterday. The manor house and estates
of the Smiths lie Immediately adjoining
the hereditary tent of the Corners. The
Corners are numerous tribe, consisting
principally of young children, while the
Smiths have only one small infant and
a pup. The pup was not offered in evil
vence, but it appeared from the testi-
mony of both sides that he was the casas
belR. When the Corners would go out
for the day thoughtlessly leaving the
draw bridge down and the portcullis up,
the pup would slip in and have some fun
with whatever he found lying around.
His appetite for pinafores and straw hats
seemed Unsuitable, and deep in the re-
cesses of his kennel he had fine collec-
ton of dish rags and other bric-a-brac,
which he had carried away on these
marauding expeditions. This bit and
ranked in the bosom of the Corners un-
til violent measures were decided upon
by the younger members of the family.
On the evening of the I'd of August
the Smith pup sat quietly watching
his master sprinkle the garden when
stone came flying over the fence from
the direction of the Corners and took him
in place to cause the subsequent pro-
ceedings to have no further interest for
him. Smith did not himself see the
stone, but Mrs. Smith testified that she
heard the dull sickening thud just as the
pup fell over. According to the Smiths,
this was the beginning of reign of ter
ror and of the stones lasting for ten
minutes.
"There was regular shower of
stones," said Smith.
"How many fell ?" asked the District
Attorney.
Smith counted them up carefully and
decided that eight fell.
well, that is less than one minute, -
said the District Attorney. "We won't
call that shower"
The Corners said that the dog must
have had fit or quickened conscience,
| as they threw no stones whatever. They
said that without any cause for provoca-
ton, Smith got very angry and began to
paw up the turf and swear. One of the
ladies of the Conner household put her
head out of the tent window and in
formed him that such language did not
become gentleman in the presence OF
the gentler sex, and he so far forgot him
self as to request her "to keep her shirt
on" At last when he saw shadow OF
one OF the boys on the side of the tent,
he let fly at him with stone and missed
him only a few inches. For this the
Corners had Smith arrested.
The case was on trial in Justice Kings
Court yesterday and decision will be
rendered to-day. A host of witnesses
were called by both sides and the feud
in the neighborhood seems likely to be-
come general. The pup is still alive and
ready to get his owner into more scrapes.

ADMISSION DAY.
No Public Denominations To He
Held Here.

No Public Denominations To He
Held Here.
In view of the fact that Monday next
is Admission Day HERALD reporter set
out yesterday to ascertain in what man
ner it is to be celebrated in this city.
There are to be no public festivities,
neither will the Native Sons of the Col
den West nor the Pioneers do anything
on the occasion. The reason for this is
that Santa Cruz has been selected as the
place at which all of the Native Sons are
to assemble this year, and as the mem
bers of the lodge in this city will nearly
all proceed thither, it is impossible to un-
dertake even ball here. The arrange
ments made at Santa Cruz indicate that a
most enjoyable time will be experienced.
The special trains conveying visitors
from all parts of the State will arrive on
Saturday evening and welcome will be
given by the ringing of bells, cannon,
steam whistles and fireworks. A process
sion will be formed to the Pavilion and
along the route traversed bonfres will
be ablaze. At the pavilion a short re-
ception will be held and the Accommo-
dation Committee will attend to their
many guests. Sunday will be devoted
to sightseeing and a number Of drives,
excursions, picnics, ETC., are on the
tapis. Monday will be ushered in with
the firing of cannon and at 8 A. NJ. the
members OF the different parlors will
meet and form into the procession, which
is timed to start at 10 o'clock. A tour
will be made of the city, the objective
point being the pavilion, where literary
exercises will be held and will terminate
the proceedings.
The enterprise Of some OF the residents
OF this city has, however, come to the
front in the matter, and that the day will
not be let pass by unheeded is evident
by the entertainments that are an
nounced. There will be grand gala fes.
tivities both at Washington Gardens and
the Second street park, and good game
OF baseball is announced to take place at
the new grounds at Prospect Park.

A Vagrancy Case.

The case of William Abbott, charged
with vagrancy, came up for trial before
Justice Austin and jury yesterday.
Three hours were consumed in securing
the jury, and then but eleven were in the
iury-box; but both sides agreed to try
the case with this nun Der. The wit
nesses for the prosecution were officers of
the law. They testified that during the
time set forth in the complaint the de-
fendant lived with woman of the town
on New High street, and that he associ-
ated with thieves and lewd characters.

More RollinR.Stock.

Ten more passenger coaches are re-
ported en- route from the East for the
Southern Pacific to stock some of the
branches recently opened. The demand
for freight cars increases at a rate that
shows what extensive shipping is going
on, and although the empties are rushed
to the needed points without delay, it is
impossible to keep up with the demand.
One thousand more fifty-ton cars were
therefore ordered the day before yester-
day, and as 500 are already in course OF
construction there ought soon be enough
to supply all the demands.
