'POSSUM HUNT IN NEW YORK.

Tho Animal Caught While Hanging by
It's Tail to a Telegraph Wire.
1t Is not often that the natives Of Gotham
put business interests aside and have pos
sum hunt. That, however, is what took
place on Thursday. 1t appears that there
has been an opossum colony in the Annexed
District for the last four years. As that
animal is OF an excitable nature il grows
weary of its haunts every now and
then, and pays visit to some place
where 1t has never been before. According
to Superintendent Conklin of the Central
HarK Menager.e, 'possum came to town on
thursday and at once became famous He
came right down 10 Fourteenth street and
proceeded to have good time. But, as
luck would have II, he was met by O number
OF bad boys and troop oil candidates for
the dos-pound. The 'possum ran away 10
avoid trouble. But the faster he ran, the
faster his pursuers ran, and the longer he
ran, the bigger the crowd grew.
Along Fourteenth street he ran, and when
he reached University place he turned into
that street leading his field, though when
they rounded the turn they began TO gain on
him with every stride. When he reached
Thirteenth street he decided to give tn EN- an
exhibition of pole-cIlmbing. He was soon
sitting on the crosS-piece of a telegraph
pole. But there was one citizen who
wouldn't stay on the ground. He was John
A. Wheeler. When Mr.. Wheeler began to

NEW RAILROAD BEGUN.
A Line Which Will Develop
Lower California.

William G. Blake of San Diego Is at a
downtown hotel. and In conversation with
CALL reporter last night referred to the
commencement of active operations upon
the new railroad to be constructed from San
Diego to Yuma.
Tho enterprise has been In contempla-
tion for some time by the Lower California
Development Company. wealthy English
syndicate owning large tracts Of land in
Lower California" continued Mr.. Blake.
Zone branch of the road will run from San
Diego to San Quintin, a distance of about
$50 miles. At the latter place the company
has commenced elaborate harbor improve
ments, which will make the town an impor-
tant shipping center.
"a few days ago a steamer belonging TO
the company arrived from England, put in
to Ensenada, the PORT of entry for Lower
California, and then cleared for San Quin-
tin. The steamers cargo included two To-
com0tiyes and sufficient quantity of rails
and other rolling stock to construct twenty
miles of the railroad, a section Of that length
having already been graded northward from
San Quintin.
"The preliminary and locating surveys
have been made aud construction parties are
now grading the road at different sections.
1his work is comparatively light, the line
running through good railroad country.
The maximum grades are about LOG feet 10
the mile and the maximum curves have a
radius of 600 feet. The number of large
bridges required on the road will not be
great
''1he land concession for the railroad was
granted to the Lower California Develop
ment Company by the Mexican Land and
colonization Company, which granted the
right OF way from Tia Juana, on the MeXi-
can line, south OF San Diego, In southerly
direction to the Trinidad Valley and thence
southWestcrly to San Quintin; and also
from near Ensenada, easterly to the Colo
RADIO River, with the terminus at Yuma,
Arz., whe re the road will connect with the
Southern Pacific The latter road has for
several years desired to build into San
Diego, but the Santa Fe had monopolized
the two best routes, one through San Ber-
nardiuo County by way OF Temecula, and
the other via Orange along the coast. The
new route will give the Southern Pacific an
entrance to San Diego from Yuma. which
present run on the Santa Fe track.
The company will receive large cash
concessions from the Mexican Government
for constituting the road, which will develop
new and rich territory and make it tribu-
tary to San Diego. The country is very fer
tile and will be coloniZsd by the Lower CAL
ifornia Development Company. Part of the
country which will be traversed by the new
line is very rich in GOLD. silver, copper and
iron, and valuable mining district will
thus be opened up. The entire railroad will
be completed within eighteen months and it
Will then be possible to bring in machinery
10 the mines. The lack of mining engines,
IL is said, has been the one requisite lacking
in that territory, and the advent OF the rail
road may make possible mining achieve
ments the results of which will be matter
OF surprise and qualification"
