CHICAGO, ILL. Nov. l0.-A persistent
effort for some time has been made to
create the impression tina; the AtchIsou =,
Topeka and Santa Fe was largely respon-
sibie for the naturalization that has
existed in freight rates in the southwest.
The charge has been positively denied by
Atchisnn people, and investigation has
demonstrated that their denial was well
founded. Reports made by roads in
southwestern or Missouri river lines, of
all dead freight carried from August to
October 81 and revenue derived by each
road, clearly demonstrates that the Atch-
ison maintained rates better than any
other competing roads. Reports shows
that Archison carried 26.5 per cent. of
freight handled by lines in the associa-
ton. Its revenue amounted to 27.4 per
cent,

Southern Pacific Strikes q Drou,h


Special to the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Nov. 1O.-The
Southern Pacific company finds itself in
the midst of a drouth between here and
the RIO Grande. When the road was
first constructed, the company sank a
series of wells for distance of two
hundred miles west and by this
means procured water supply. OF
late the surprising discovery has
been made that tine water in these wells
has become absolutely unit for use and
the company is compelled to haul water
from DEVILS river and other small
streams traversed by Its line, thus en-
failing an unlooked-for expense in the
company's operations. Artesian wells
will at once be bored to supply the de-
ficiency.

DIR. Blowers Suggests Some Improve
ments That Could Be Made
DR.. Z. b. Blowers of Woodland, who has
been with California on Wheels" fer
some time, has sent in a communication to
the State Board Of Trade in which he sug-
gests that the exhibit in the travelling show
should be improved by the addition of a
neat bale of alfalfa hay. samples of
cotton in ball. specimens of tie vari-
GUS kinds of native woods, with their
seeds and cones, and a good collection Of
minerals and ores, roofing slate, building
stone and greater variety of fruits. 20

quently changed, as the jar Of the moving
car tends to injure 1t. The greatest sue
cesses of the exhibition, in his judgment,
have been in the small towns and rural dis
Ircts. In the cities there has been too
much else to attract the curious. He recon-
mends the State Board of Trade to issue
publication giving general description of
California, with a map of the State. and in
Inmates that it would be bright idea to
send California on Wheels" to Europe.

The outer frame bears upon the two IN

Thompson, who lived in squalid lodgings
in the old Veranda building, at the corner
OF Washington and kearny streets. she
had at that time also a baby girl named
Alice Hayden, also an illegitimate child,
and the trio lived amidst such immoral sur
Ioundings that upon presentation OF the
facts Justice Myrick. then Judge OF the
Probate Court. cut the proceedings short,
and at the hearing on the 18th OF May,
1878, appointed Mr.. Hunter guardian of the
boy, with permission to place him in the
care of the Ladies' Protection and Relief
Society.

concerning his mother and sister and even
offered to make his guardian present OF

EdOuard Lainesse claims to have invented
an absolutely safe and infallible device to
save life on elevators Three of his devices
have been put into operation at the Potrero
Gas Works, and two have been tested.
Both worked admirably.
At the test made yesterday load of 3400
pounds of coal was put on the carriage, and
connecting ropes were detached after the
supporting ram had been lowered. With
its 340O pounds 1t started with an ominous

that they serve only as guides for the car

KERk'S GRATITUDE.

Kindness.
James W. Kerr, the foundryman, who
shot and killed Edward Cogan recently on
First street after being attacked by crowd,
did an act of gratitude yesterday. While
prisoner in the City Prison Hospital he was
very kindly treated by j. w. Williams, the
"trusty" in charge. who was very attentive
and courteous. Williams was sentenced
last March to pay fine of $50 or be ini-
prisoned for $50 days for having lottery
ticket in his possession. Not having the
money he had to accept the alternative.
In prison his conduct was such that he be-
came "trusty" aud steward of the prison
hospital.
Yesterday Kerr visited him and paid S116,
the balance of Williams fine, which meant
116 days of freedom. Williams went away
with Kerr delighted. He does not belong
to the criminal class, but was unfortunate
in being caught with lottery ticket.
