FAyORABLY IMPRESSED.
Mayor Comstock Speaks Well of the San
Jose System.

Mayor Comstock speaks Well OF the San
Jose System.
Mayor Comstock and Trustee Wolf have
returned from their trip to San Jose, where
they went to inspect the electric railway
system on invitation of j. 81. Henry,
owner of the road, who is urging the Trus-
tees to grant him franchise to lun q SINH
larly operated road in this city.
Mayor Comstock says he took several
rides on the cars, in company with Mr..
Henry, and found that they ran as smoothly
as horse or cable cars. They have front
car where the motor is carried, and at
tached thereto is dummy. Two men are
necessary on each car, conductor and a
man to start and stop the car, which is done
by working lever.
In starting or stopping there are no jerks,
and the rate of speed with which the cars
are operated is about the same as the ordi-
nary horse-car. However, when necessary
to make up lost time. speed of over ten
miles an hour is often attained, and the
cars can also be run much faster than this.
The current of electricity is communicated
to the car by means of perpendicular
wire rod, on the upper end of which is q
small wheel, which runs along on the
overhead wire, and the other end is at
tached to the car. If the apparatus be-
comes out of order ladder is always at
hand, and the delay occasioned amounts to
nothing.
The road, says the Mayor, is about three
miles long, and even during the heavy
travel incident to the holding of the Demo-
cratic State Convention, there was not a
break-d down nor blockade. The people OF
San Jose were unanimous in their praise of
the working of the road, and are only too
willing to recommend the system as being
as good, convenient and reliable as the
cable road.
Trustee Wolf was also favorably i'm.
pressed with the system, and thinks it will
work well here.

Counselor Jones Moves for the Dismissal
of the Case.
When the prosecution closed, Mr.. Jones,
on behalf OF the prisoners. asked that the
case be dismissed and the prisoners dis
charged, holding that no case had been
made against them.
AT the request of the prosecution, how
ever, recess was taken for Is minutes.
THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY CONSENTS.
When the Court reconvened, District At
torney Bruner said that he had no doubt
taking the testimony of j. II. Pierson as
a correct statement of what occurred-that
the white men who went to the Chinese
camp on the 9th of July went there for
the purpose of seeing fight. and of par
ticipating therein, if necessary. He did
not think that Walter Pierson, the de-
ceased, was party to any proposed trouble,
as he at first declined going there. 1t
seemed that Mr.. Startsman was the origi-
nator of the unfortunate affair. So far as
the Chinese were concerned, they had
reason to believe that a conspiracy had
been formed to injure or perhaps kill them,
and naturally defended themselves. I'm
der the circumstances he did not believe a
jury would convict the prisoners, and he
felt it his duty not to oppose the motion for
a dismissal of the case. Still, if5the Court
should differ with him in the matter, it
could hold the prisoners, as he believed
they had been shown to have been present
and engaged in the unfortunate ARRAY
which resulted in the death of Walter

SUNDAY afternoon in question the group
of vounp men about his house talked
about going swimming, and there was also
some talk sbout Startsman going to have
fight with Chinaman. Witness supposed
the object was to go to the Chinese camp
and see the proposed fight. On the way
down some one said to STATESMAN, II sup
pose you're going down to have that fun,
and Startsman replied no, that they were
going swimming, and that the "fun" was to
lake place in the evening. Witness story
of the melee that followed did not differ
materially from that of the other witnesses.
On cross examination witness said that
on Sunday morning Daken told another
young man that the woodchopper Starts
mani was going to have fight that after
noon with Chinaman. Witness brother,
the deceased. offered TO go and borrow the
Chinaman's knife, but instead sat down
and began talking with the Chinaman
about corn.
Edward Dalton, aged II years, who was
one of the party engaged in the ARRAY on
his fathers place on the afternoon of July
9th, told about the same story as the other
witnesses.
Elder II. Pierson, aged Is years, testified
that be was one of the party that went to
the Chinese camp. The men were on their
way to the river to go in swimming. When
the fight began witness ran behind the
cabin and did not see all that occurred.
Alva PiersoD, aged 10 years, also q
brother of the deceased, next testified, but
could not give a very clear account of the
affair.
E. b. Heath, Deputy Sheriff at Michigan
Bar, identified All Sung as man arrested
in that vicinity on witness order. He
could not say he had ever seen him on

to hamper him in no way harshly. But
we want him bound to the city to give good
service.
Mr.. Motto be Independent is worth
something to him. Then it ought TO be
worth binding himself in return to guaran-
1ee the public certain things as regards
service.
Mr.. Crouch, Mr.. Enright and others
How long does his contract run with your
company, Mr.. Lewis.
Mr.. Lewis-Two and half years.
Mr.. McClatchy Now suppose people
build up on outside lands on the strength
of the roads operation, and in two and a
half years the operating OF the road by
electricity ceases?
Mr.. Hawley-You can't bind a man to
run road at loss.
The President-No. that is too remote.
If it pays no fear but the road viii be oper-
ated. People must take their share of
risk with the protector of public enter
prise.
Mr.. McClatchy Mr. Stafford, Mr.. Hamil-
ton, Mr. Enright, Mr.. Lindley and others
No restrictions ought to be asked but
reasonable ones. such as other towns find
wise and that enterprise finds it TO its adj
vantage TO accept.
Mr.. Enright suggested as the sense of
quested to grant the modification to permit
the poles necessary TO be erected to convert
the Central Street Railway into an over
head wire electrical system of propulsion.
That such provisions be made, however, as
to number of trips, use of poles, etc., as
will protect the public and the property
owners along the route.
Mr.. Lewis-There should be no hard
provisions. The Central road has been
operated faithfully and during the hardest
winter ever seen here.
Colonel Hamilton-Very true, and il was
run capitally, and the people recognize it.
But it has been managed by Sacramentans
now stranger comes in, and it is proper
he should pledge himself to do the fair
thing by the city.
Mr.. Lewis-I believe he will.
The President-So do 1; and l think it
will be all right
Mr.. Enright here converted his sugges.
ton into motion, and accepted an amend
ment by Mr.. Tozer that a committee of
five be appointed to present the motion 10
the City Trustees on Monday, and urge
that body to grant the request of Mr..
Henry.
The motion unanimously prevailed
adopting the resolution of Mr.. Enright
characterized above, and creating the COM
mittee called for by the amendment.
The President appointed the committee
as follows: t. A. Enright, of Holbrook,
Merrill & Stetson; D. A. Lindley, of Lind
ley & Co.; George NJ. Mott, of II. S. Crocker
& Co.; G. n. Hubbard. of Baker & Hamil-
ton; and e. B. Willis, of the RECORD

IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN WORE.
The East-Bound Train Escaped by Beini
Behind Time.

The East-B0und IRAN Escaped Dy Being
Behind Time.
A press dispatch from Emigrant Gap
yesterday gives the following particulars OF
the disaster:
A serious freight wreck occurred at Cas-
cade early this morning. Train 10 was
standing at Summit with the air brakes set
while the engines went afer more cars.
The air leaked and the band brakes not
being set up, the caboose and several cars
started down the grade.
When the runaway train reached Cascade
freight No. % was pulling in on the side
track, all but the caboose and one car hav-
ing cleared the main track.
The runaway train struck the car pre-
ceding the caboose and a wreck resulted.
Conductor Kingsley, of No. 10, and con-
ductor Connolly and brakemen Beyer and
Veara, of No. %, were killed and one or
two others were badly hurt.
Cascade Station, small structure, was
thrown down the precipitous hill, but the
operator, asleep in the house, escaped. The
snow-sheds were demolished for some dis
lance.
The seventeen cars of No. 10 and two OF
the other train were piled up in mass,
and the wires Frustrated.
The fact that the Atlantic express was
behind time last night averted a frightful
disaster, as No. "a was running on her
time to the Summit.

A TERRIBLE SIGHT

Almost every car was crushed into
splinters and these were strewn about in
every direction. But the distressing fea-
ture of the accident was the awful death
of the tour men, two of them conductors
and two brakemen. Conductor Kingsley,
who was on the runaway train, endeavor-
ing to check it and thus prevent the dis
aster, was instantly killed. Conductor L.
Connolly and brakemen o. w. Bever and
V. E. Vesra, whom, it is thought, were in
the caboose of the train just entering the
sidetrack, were also killed and buried in
the wreckage.
All of the men lived in Rocklin, and
both Kingsley and Bever were married.
The former had been in the employ of the
company for about fifteen years and the
latter ten years.

Inquiry at the railroad Office in this city
last night developed the fact that the road
had been cleared by the wrecking crew at
4 o'clock in the afternoon, and that all de-

The body of Conductor Connolly was
taken to Newcastle, where his sister and
several brothers live. The remains of the
other three unfortunate men were brought
to Rocklin.
