ONE of the notable things Of this par
ticular time is the setting up of large
condensed milk factory ct Buena Park, a
couple of miles west of Anaheim. The
district selected is just the place for such
an enterprise. For distance of fifteen
to twenty miles in all directions lie
plains that afford the finest pasture in
the world. The factory will use the
milk of 1000 cows. Ten times the mum.
ber might we'll be sustained around the
point selected. Heretofore it has been
supposed that the high price OF sugar in
this section precluded the getting up OF
such an enterprise. In the HERALD to-
day appears some account of beet sugar
culture near Los Angeles. With sugar
refinery here cheap sugar would be OBJ
tainsble. 1t is the best district for the
culture of sugar beets in the State.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HHRALD.
WASHINGTON, September 2s.-John A.
Met cClernand, OF the Utah Commission,
today submitted minority report. The
reason is his non-concurrence in the re-
port of his colleagues in its general ami
mus, particularly in it's distinction between
opinion and actions as subjects of legis.
lative punishment. The existing laws,
he says, are working we'll. Further ag-
gressive legislation, trenching upon civil
and political privileges, would be injuri
GUS rather than beneficial. No religion
was ever fiaally destroyed by either
armed or unarmed prescription.
McClernand enters upon an extensive
treatise showing the danger to be appr. g
hended from trenching upon the religious
convictions of people. He concludes
by recommending an amendment to tue
Federal Constitution "perpetually pro.
hibitiag polygamy under whatsoever it's
guise, not only in the ates but also in
the Territories and other places over
which the United States has or may
have exclusive jurisdiction"
He dwells al length upon the impor.
tance OF this amendment, and says il
would substitute "a lasting organic law
for legislative enactment, which must
cease to operate with the cessation Of an
anoms slous Territorial condition.
The Mormon religion, he says, purged
of its impurities, will probably survive.
How long he cannot foresee. the ages
of that fanaticism and fatuity," he con-
cludes, (which conceived the inquisitior
and racks; which burned Latimer and
Ridley at the stake; which inHieted
the massacre of ut. Bartholomew, hnd
which drove the Puritans, Huguenote,
Quakers and their co-devotees to the
cause Of freedom. from their native lands
to find a refuge in the new world, and tc
people it with teeming millions and tc
bless it with republican principles and
forms-those ages have passed away. TC
revive their dark and intolerant spiri,

SENSATIONAL CLIMAX.
A Drunken Engineer Caused the
Chicago Wreck.

Chicago Wreck.
CHICAGO ,Septem ber 28.-A sensational
climax ended the Coroner's investigation
into the Rock Island suburban railway
accident this evening. The Jury had Just
returned q verdict holding Engineer
Twombly and Fireman Lecloche respon.
sible for the wreck and committing them
to Jail, when Lecloche broke down
and admitted having perjured
himself in swearing that Twombly
was not drunk. The fireman
then made confession, telling of his
ride with the drunken engineer. He in.
timatsd that compulsi0n from hi sh off,
cials had prompted him to lie. Twomb-
ley and himself, it appeared, had
gone to q saloon before starting
out in charge of the freight train
that played such havoc at Washington
Heights. Twomblsy drank freely, but
said Lecloche, che was not paralyzed
drunk" Lecloche added that Twombly
ran the engine himte +, and said at
the time of the accident that Twombly's
head was out Of the cab window
and he might have been asleep tor all
the fireman knows. Lecloche broke
down and Gried like q child. Engineer
Twombly is under arrest at bis home,
where he is confined to bed by injuries
received in the wreck.

The New Railroad President.

Ame Now naIlfO00 fI68lOemts
Elsewhere we give the substance of an
interview had with a gentleman recently
returned from Chicago, and who had
made the acquaintance of Mr.. Marvel,
the new President of the Santa Fe sys-
tenn. The description he gives of that
gentleman is highly complimentary to
his abilities and sense of justice. He is
represented as q fair man in every re-
spect, and one who will do justice in his
high and responsible position between
the company with whose welfare he is
charged and the employees of
the system, sigh and low. We
are absolutely assured that the questio n
Of removing the railroad offices from Los
Angeles has had no place in the plans of
the company, and that Mr.. Marvel
comes here entirely unfettsred, to ex-
anime carefully into the railroad condi-
ton and to make such changes and i'm
provements a. the facts will warrant,
upon careful consideration. Whatever
these changes may be, the public may
rest assured that they will only be those
justified by the exigencies of business.
The Santa Fe system is here to stay. 1t
has done much to help develop the re-
sources OF our county and section, and
to advance the interests Of all. 1t can
not change. even if it would,
the policy that has led it to
becoming an important factor in
bringing about these great results.
Mr.. Marvel, though stranger to our
section, is still man Of so wide and ex-
tenaive experience in the relations Of
railroads towards communities, that he
will take in the situation at a grasp
and his fine business sense will show
him at once that here is a section of won
derful actual business and resources
which no great railroad corporation that
is interested in the progress and develop
ment of the country can afford
to treat otherwise than in the most
friendly and liberal spirit. We shall be
glad to welcome the new President to
Los Angeles, and our people will aid him
in every way in their power to carry out
his important business mission to the
best and most advantageous ends for all
concerned.

The management of each of the
various enterprises will be placed in
American boards of directors, subject to
the control of board in London. A rep
resentaiive OF one of the syndicates
here, when asked today if this doesn't
look like the establishment of huge
British trust, said "No; each enterprise
is operated separately. The plan is not
one of aggression, but of conservative,
sure Investments.

been cleverly evaded in careful man
