common for farmers to realize from $40
to $50 head for the cream Of their

doors every day by the creamery team.
This would enable farmers to keep good

United States are in those localities
where the cattle industry predomin ste~.
We hope some of our citizens will take

A NEW ROUTE.
The Rapid Transit Read 60 Rum &C
Alfso.street Bridge.

AunOs6lEeet DAhubSe
Those who travel over the Rapid
Transit road will be pleased to hear that
within thirty days the present system OF
journeying to the terminus OF the line at
the Mission road will be dispensed with.
The original plans regarding the road
were to bring it in as an elevated line
over the White and Hoover places and
Macy street to the city terminus at the
corner of Also street and Niger alley,
where large and handsome freight and
passenger depot was to have been
erected. Right of way troubles have,
however, cropped up, and days of delay
have grown into weeks and months, with
the end apparently as far off as ever.
1he directors, seeing at last that the
disputes are liable to last many months
more, decided to make some other more
suitable arrangements, of temporary
nature only though, for the original in
tentions are to be carried out some day.
1t was, therefore, determined to run a
line from the point where Gard
ner street tt,ikes the track
(about half mile from the
Mission road terminus), down the
Arroyo Seco to the other side Of the
Aliso.street bridge. Here grounds have
been secured and the material obtained
for temporary depot. The graders are
now at work in the Arroyo, and as there
js only about a mile of track to be laid
lhs task is not very great one,
especially as there are no heavy grading
difficulties to be overcome. The ties are
all on hand, and the only delay, if any.
that is possible will be regarding the rails,
for although special order has been sent
in, it is likely that the stock will not be
on hand. 1t is confidently hoped, how
ever, that the last spike in the new
branch will be driven by the 18th O
June, and it will at once be put in opera
ton. Passengers from the heart of towr
will then be carried by the Also stree
car line to the new depot, and this will
make the Rapid Transit line as accessible
as the Southern Pacific or Santa Fe.

EDITORS HERALD: My attention has
recently been called to Paragraph in an
Albuquerque, N. NJ, paper, the sum and
substance OF which is as follows: "Bar-
ney Riggs, who was pardoned out of the
Yuma penitentiary some time ago, is
again in the tolls of the law in Texas for
killing cowboy" As your paper has
an extensive circulation in Arizona,
allow me to make through your columns
the following brief statement:
Since leaving Yuma, l have been a
quiet and law-abiding citizen OF Reeves
county, Texas, and every official of said
county will corroborate what say. lam
in trouble of no kind, and am prospecting
as we'll as l desire, being engaged in
horse-raising, and having about two hun
dred OF as good horses as can be found in
west Texas.
The truth of the matter is that the
paragraph was intended as a sneer at
Governor Zulick, who pardoned me. II
is true that killed my man, and l still
feel that l WAS justified in so doing; but
| think that demonstrated, during the
revolt of the convicts at Yuma, that
Notwithstanding a life-sentence was on
me, was still friend of law and order
for had not the slightest hope of par
don, and the assistance | rendered the
authorities speaks for itself. Please give
this place in your paper and oblige
yours, respsc fully,

Two inspectors of Freight to be Ap.
pointed in This City.
Official accounts of the proceedings al
the just concluded meeting of the Trans.
continental Association, at st. Louis,
we're yesterday received here by the
leading officers OF the Santa Fe and
Southern Pacific systems. The report
shows that on the day before adjourn
ment the question of the false classified
ton of freight came up and after some
discussion the following decision was
finally made:
''That the Chairman be instructed to
appoint two inspectors at Los Angeles
and two at San Francisco for the purpose
of weighing and examining packages of
freight arriving there via all routes, to
determine whether goods are being mis-
represented: or otherwise, as to weight
or classification, and, that, in case OF
Misrepresentation, proper corrections be
made and collections made and retained
on basis of proper weight, classification
and rates."
Speaking of this, Mr.. Smurr said that
it would be very beneficial thing, both
for the shippers and handlers of freight
in this city, as, under the recently
passed acts, the false classification of
freight is now punishable by two years
in the psnitentiary.
Mr.. James Smith, who is at present
the General Agent for the Trans
continental Association at New York,
will temporarily succeed Mr.. j. S. Leeds
as chairman on June 2st, the date when
that gentlemsn's resignation goes into
effect. Mr.. Leeds has been receiving q
salary of IS, 900 per annum, and in resign
ing to become Traffic Manager of the Mis-
souri, Pacific he is doubtless making q
good change, as the latter position is
worth $15, COO to $4,000 per annum. II
is now held by Third Vice-P President
Newman, who succeeded George Odds
when he became Traffic Manager of the
Canadian Pacific, at a salary of 500, 1000 &

THE P. Il o. BOATS.
One a Month to Rum In and Out of
San Diego at First.


General Freight and Passenger Agent
s. B. Hynes OF the California Southern
is making arrangements for his first
official trip to San Diego, where he will
remain three or four days. A HERALD
man asked him yesterday if anything
further had been received regarding the
Peninsular and Oriental Steamships,
and in reply the railroad official said
''No, nothing of any great consequence.
l do not anticipate that there are any
more difficulties to be surmounted,
though regarding the matter of Mr..
Babcock's dispatch it would indicate
that the deal lad been consummated.
The proposition is, believe, to run at
first one boat each way monthly betwee n
San Diego and the Orient and trade will
bs gathered from India, China and
Japan. Some idea of what this busine 8
is can be gathered from the fact that it is
not unusual for one of the Interoceanic
steamers to turn over 400 carloads of
freight to the Southern Pacific on arrival
at San Francisco. And the Barring boats
are much larger than the ships now ply
ing in our waters. The P. & o. Com pany
runs at present fifty-six steamers, some
of which are the largest trading ships
afoat. They are differed by members
of the British Royal Reserve and do
all the work for the English
G)vernment. A good deal of traffic
now goes on between India and New
York and at present the P. q o. boats do
all their carrying trade through the Suez
Canal, which is roundabout way to
take merchandise to the United States.
Messrs. Barring Bros, who are the
heaviest stockholders in the P. & O., and
who also own a good interest in the
Santa Fe, can see what big advantages
will accrue from the new arrangement,
go there is not much danger of its fallin 3
