THE RACES.
Indications of a Splendid
Weeks Sport.
PROGRAMME FOR THE WEEK.
The Pavilion to be Crowded with
Exhibits-Latest Stable
Notes.

Racing men are of the opinion that
next weeks sport at the Agricultural
Park will be the best since the first event
was decided at that place, and if the un-
firing efforts of Secretary De Camp and
his assistants can make it 80 there is
little doubt but that their hopes will be
realized. The stock on the ground is all
doing well and the trainers state that the
Palo Alto stock will contest all the races
for which they have been entered. Lady
Helen has been entered by P. Robson
for the half mile dash on the first day,
but this is mistake as she is the proI-
erty Of Tom Williams, the noted turtle
of Stockton. The programme for the
week has been arranged as follows:
Monday, to be devoted to receiving
goods, assigning space to exhibitors, en-
tering stock, etc., and the announced
speed contests.
On Tuesday the judges will inspect the
live stock and this will be followed by
ladies' equestrian entertainments, with
the regular speed programme in the
afternoon.
Wednesday will be the children's day,
and there will be an exhibition of ponies
of all grades and ages, the prizes to be
awarded ranging from $40 upwards.
Gentlemen's single and double driving
and saddle horses will also be on view and
the speed programme will wind up the
days sport.
Thursday will be devoted to tie grand
stock parade and regular races and is
sure to be heavy gate day.
For Friday a basket picnic and baby
show is announced and in the afternoon
some OF the best racing Of the week will
occur. The event of the day will be q
contest between the 2 20 trotters, and
among those who are entered are w. III.
Searle's "Alfred ST." the Palo Alto farms
"Hinda Rosa" 0. A. Hickok's "Conde"
and other noted animals.
Saturday, the closing day, will be de-
voted to another grand stock parade and
a general wind-up of the festivities.
Some good racing is announced for the
afternoon, the programme including two
running and three trctting events.
THE EXHIBITS.
The exhibition in the Pavilion promises
to be very imposing spectacle, and
nearly all of the room has already been
taken. San Bernardino will be largely
represented, and so will the Chino ranch
stock farm, which will have about twenty
one exhibits aggregating in cash value
$3.50 900 and including handsome four>
finland of Clydesdale stations.
The Hon. Fl. NJ La Rue OF Sacra-
mento, who is to act as presiding Judge
of the races and superintendent of the
Pavilion display, will arrive in the city
on Saturday and will make his head
quarters at the Hotel Westminster. Mr..
La Rue who was formerly President Of
State Agricultural Association. and acted,
it will be remembered, asjudge of the
the California State Senate and is now q
member of the Board of Directors of the
races last year, and the fairness Of his
decisions has made everybody anxious
that he should again be selected in the
same capacity. A large number of rae
ing men are expected from all parts of
the State, and the week will doubtless
be lively one.

CHINESE TROUBLE.
Clever Capture of q Highbinder by
Detective McCarthY.

Clever Capture of q Highbinder by
Detective Mccarthy.
The factions in Chinatown have been
making more trouble. Yesterday morn
ing Hing Sue, a prominent man among
the Highbinders, set upon All Fat, .
Chinese merchant. evidently with the in
tention of killing him. The affair took
place in Niger Alley. Hing struck Fat
in the forehead with pair of brass
knuckles, knocking him down and cut
ting him severely. As he lay on the
ground Lue jumped on him and beat
him about the head, gashing him in
number of places. Hing Sue then drew
a revolver and shot the PROSTATE mer-
chant in the leg. By this time consider
able crowd bad gathered, and fearful lest
the police should make a descent upon
them the friends of Hing hurried him
away and kept him out of sight. A few
minutes later representative of the law
was on hand in the shape of Detective
Mccarthy. He immediately began q
diligent search for Hing, but at first was
unsuccessful. The Highbinders had no
intention of allowing any of their men to
be taken up if they could help it. In the
course of the afternoon q meeting was
held of Chinese merchants and the de-
tective was informed that every effort
would be made to secure the man and
give him up to justice. Thsi encounter
was believed to be only a preliminary
skirmish to q genuine warfare,
which is likely to begin before
long in the Chinese quarter, and
there was very lively desire on the
part of the police to have the offender
brought to light. Yesterday evening
Detectives McCarty, Metzler and Harris
went down into China town with the
intention of making thorough search.
One particular house had been pointed
out by an informer as the probable hid
ing place of Hing Sue and the detectives
were about to make descent upon it.
Suddenly the spy touched McCarty on
the arm and whispered, "Quick! There
he is" The detective turned like q
flash and had the Highbinder in his
grip before he could tell that any one
was near. The Chinaman was game and
instantly demanded sight Of the war
rant. He was taken by the detectives to
the room where the wounded All Fat lay,
who identified him as his would-be muir
derer. He was marched in triumph to
the station and entered under charge
OF assault with intent to murder. Hing
is not ignorant Of the ways of the law.
He refuses to speak until he has seen q
lawyer. 1t was q very clever capture
and will do much to head off the effort of
the Highbinders to get control in Los
Angeles.

The San Pedro wharf.

1t appears to have been rather prema-
ture to state that the creasoting works at
San Pedro are in full blast. as it will take
about two months to put up the plant
which will cost from $25 900 TO $50, 900.
What is going on is that the piles are be-
ing stripped and seasoned, which is
rather long operation, as all the. fat
must be extracted from the wood ere it
is placed in the creasoting bath where
an immersion of about 48 hours is neces-
sary. The timbers to be used are from
80 to 75 feet long and of stout Oregon
pine. The square piles close to the shore
which do not need creasoting are being
driven and thus work will soon be COM
pleted.

THE RAILROADS.
A Flyer" to Run From This
City to Cotton.
FORTY-ONE MILES AN HOUR.
The Fastest Train West of the
Missouri River-GOssip About
the DepOts.

Los Angeles is to have the fastest pas
senger train service west OF the Rockies,
in fact west of the Missouri river. Be-
tween this city and Cotton is a piece of
road running through. a thickly-settled
district, which makes it necessary for
stoppages to be made very frequently,
sometimes at distances of only three
miles. In spite of this, the run to Col
ton, distance of fifty-eight miles, has
always been noted for being very fast,
one OF the trains making the run in two
hours, another in two hours and ten min
utes, and the third in two hours and
thirty minutes. The Southern Pacific
has determined, however, to eclipse all
of these, and in about two or three weeks
from date flyer is to be put on which
will make the trip between the two
points named in one hour and twenty
five minutes. This means schedule
time of forty-one miles an hour
and allowing for stoppages it will neces-
state running speed of over fifty miles
an hour. OF course this flyer will not
stop at every small station along the
road, but it will call at all the important
points, where passengers will have to be
ready for the cars or else they will get
left, for it will not have much time to
spare. 1t will leave Cotton for this city
at morning hour, not yet decided, and
will return during the afternoon. This
is to be an additional service and will
not take the place of any OF the present
trains, which will run as usual. New
special engines of increased weight and
capacity are to be sent do wn for this SER
vice and the company intends
to make the train vie with
any on the continent. The i'm
portance of this new feature to the
settlements along the road between here
and Cotton can scarcely be realized, for
when it is in operation the run from Po-
mona to this city will be made in about
forty minutes, and the time of commu-
nication between all intervening points
will be reduced to very small basis.
Business men can now establish their
residences forty or fifty miles out of
town and yet make the trip to the city as
quickly as a person living at the terminus
Of any of the streetcar lines. There is no
other train in the State that will be able
to ATTEMPT to compare with this service,
% a. reference to any time table will
Show. The run between San Francis
CO and San Jose, distance
of so miles is generally supposed to be a
very fast one, but the schedule time is
two hours all but two minutes. A COM
parison with the fastest line in the East
will be interesting. This is conceded to
be the Baltimore and Ohio Road in its
run between Baltimore and Washington,
a distance of about forty miles, and this
the regular train makes in one hour and
ten minutes, rate of thirty-four and
two-third miles as compared with forty
one miles on the run between this city
and Cotton. Ofcourse this is not the cele
brated Baltimore limited train, for this
makes the trip between the places named
in forty-tive minutes, a rate of tifty-three
and one.third miles an hour.

After the Apaches.

The telegraphic news conveys the in
telligence of another outbreak among the
Apache Indians on the San Carlos Reser-
vation. The savages are quarreling
amongst themselves, and Captain Lee,
the post commander, cannot quiet them.
1t is feared that another raid throughout
the country may be the outcome Of the
affair, and the officers of the different
posts have been ordered to arrest any
rowing parties. General Miles, accom-.
panied by Lieutenant Gatewood, left on
No. 10 last night for the scene OF the dis
turbance, and will remain in the field il
anything serious occurs. Opinion at the
army headquarters here is that the diff.
culties will soon be adjusted.

A suit Against the s. p.

Assistant Superintendent ]. A. Muir,
Of this division of the Southern Pacific,
is expected back to-day from Santa Bar
bara. He has been there in the inter
ests of the company regarding a suit for
damages brought against it by William
Dover. The first train that ran into San
ia Barbara, when the new line was COM
pleted, ran into Dover, the engine strik-
ing him in the head and inficting severe
injuries. 1t is the opinion Of the compa-
ny that Dover attempted to commit sui
eide, but this he strenuously denies, and
is endeavoring to obtain compensation
for the damages inflicted on him.

COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Result of the Inquest ON the Body
of BENJAMIN Ellison.

AsCSeAAs VI shO AhH4AC0k O1A gnt nO0y
of Benjamin Ellison.
An inquest was held at four o'clock
yesterday afternoon on the body of Ben
jamin Ellison, the plasterer who was
brought into the station Monday evening
for medical treatment. DR.. J. J. Choate
testified to the jury which was impan-
eled, that he had been called to see the
man at ten o'clock and had found him in
a comatose condition from opium poison
ing. He had tried to resuscitate him,
but his efforts were fruitless. He died at
three in the morning. There were no
marks OF external violence.
William Harcourt, a plasterer, testified
that he had known the deceased for two
or three months. On Sunday Ellison
came to him and asked for money with
which to buy poison. Harcourt refused
it, and afterwards heard him say that he
had got the poison but that it was not
the right kind to do the work. He had
often said that he would kill himself, so
the witness paid no attention to it. Ell
lison had not done any work for long
time, and was drunk almost constantly.
L. Brodie, carpenter, said that he
had known Ellison ten or twelve years.
He was born in Montgomery, Alabama,
and had moved from there to Texas,
coming here from the latter State. He
was about thirty-eight years of age. He
had been drunk and idle most of the
time since coming to Los Angeles. He
had said several times that he intended
to do away with himself and not put his
friends to any more trouble on his ac-
count. The jury brought in verdict to
the effect that death was the result of
opium poisoning, and that the said poison
was taken by the said Ellison himeelf
with suicidal intent.
