1nQuests were held yesterday in tn cases
of the two murdered highbinders. The
first was upon the body of Chin Sing Suck,
the colar-maker who wa: found shot to
death in Spofford alley ON Tuesday morn
ing. Although many Chinese heard the
shots, no clew was given that would lead to
the identity Of the murdererS. No evidence
was introduced except as TO Sucks identity
and the circumstances Of the discovery Of
his body. The COroner's jury returned
a verdict Of death from gunShot wo unds in
1cted by unknown persons.
The inquest in the case Of Leon Suey,
whose body was found on the "a inst. in d
clothes basket on Bull Run alley, W as con-
cluded. There was no new testimony to
offer, and so the circumstances OF his killing
remain 10 be unraveled. The jury found
that lie died from bullet wounds inflicted by
unknown persons.
The police are still guarding against a re-
newed outbreak among the fighting high
binder tOngs. The "hatchet men, of the
Sings and Ongs are still proving around
the noiSume MungOl quarters aud another
deadly encounter is not improbable. Chief
Crowley approves of the plan to establish a

Construction Work With the Southern
Pacific Is DuII.


Pacific Is Dull.
Construction with the Southern Pacific
Company is exceedingly dull at present
and the year of 1891 will be the dullest in
this regard of any in the history of the
company. Reconstruction is going on
slowly at several points, where geographical
position has made it an ABSOLUTE necessity,
and considerable repairing has been done 10
put the road In safe condition for winter
travel. Outside Of this things are az a
standstill or about as near that condition
as can be imagined. Grading work has
just been commenced on the line from Ma
liant to Redlands and CroftoD, distance
of eight miles, and the road will be ready
for operation about the middle of Decem-
Der. Two miles of wharf track are being
put in near Santa Monica, and on the Yuma
reconstruction track-laying has been CON-
menced. Quite large force OF men is en-
ployed at this point Grant Brothers are
doing tine work under contract. which calls
for completion on January 1st.
Several new depOts on the new San Ra-
mon Valley line have recentlO been built
and several are already occupied. The
train service in the valley has been greatly
improved since the opening of the line, and
the "howl-wave" for better transportation
facilities which hung low over the valley
for several years has drlfted south and now
is darkening the sun at Santa Margarita
and Elwood. 1t is given out on the very
best OF authority that the gap will be closed
some time.

HOURS OF AGONY.

An Engineer Lies for Thirteen Hours
Under Wrecked Locomotive.
One of the m ost terrible experiences that
ever falls TO the lot of man must have been
that of Engineer Thomas Major of the
Columbia and Puget Sound Railway last
Friday. An irregular coal train of twenty
five cars was derailed by the engine run
ming over a cow. The engine was demol-
ished and the engineer, Major, had a
miraculous escape from instant death, and
may yet not recover from his injuries.
Maj,r was pinned beneath the wrecked
locomotive for thirteen long hours. His
body during this time was buried in water
with only his head above the surface. For
an honr and q quarter, says the Seattle
Telegraph, the escaping steam from the
engine boiler poured tull in Majors face.
DE was held as II in a wise and could not
be moved despite the efforts of his brother
trainmen, who rushed to his assistance and
turned him over ana raised his body To a
position as though lie was resting on his
knees. They could get him no further, and
1t was necessary to hold his head above he
water. There were but four men present TO
render assistance. They were Conductor
Dave Mckinney, Fireman Scott Forbes aud
two brakemen.
They soon discovered that Majors feet
were over the quadrOn and beneath tn
boiler brace. The reverse lever was on top
of his legs, which in some manner got
crossed. The engine was lying on the right
side and little bit tipped over from the top.
In this position Major had to sit, and de-
spite the efforts OF his friends, let the steam
from the pipes and smoke from the furnace
escape in his face. The steam had to come
through hole only fve-eighths Of an inch
large and known as the water glass gauge.
For just an hour and quarter Major was
tortured in this way. 1t took that long for
the steam to escape. He would have been
literally roasted had it not been for the fact
that his body TO his shoulders was beneath
water Water was thrown on his face con-
tinually during the time the steam was es-
caring, or else he could not have survived.
In the meantime there was another diff
Guilty arising The engine and cars had
practically damned up the slough and
caused the water TO rise. II was fast rising
about Majors shoulders. But another dam
was built and tho course OF the water
changed. aud in this manner n further rise
was prevented. All this time Majors body
was resting in the cold water. For while
The morning call., 1891-11-12
he had two extremes, one of scalding steam
and the other the cold water from mOuntain

he had two extremes. one of scalding steam
and the other the cold water from mountain
snow.
Despite the strenuous efforts of the wreck
it was . o'clock of the next day before the
tortured man could be released. He was
then taken to Seattle and carried to the
Providence Hospital, where it was found
that hisface and head were badly burned
from The steam. The flesh was almost black
One of the bones of the left leg is broken
between the knee and fGot. But the great
est danger is feared in consequences OF Major
remaining so long in the water. His body
and legs were almost frozen.
Major was unconscious much Of the time
while he was being tortured. Death would
have been preferable to him.
Major is about 40 years of age. he has
been in tho employ of the Columbia and Flu
get Sound Railroad for about two years. He
is regarded as one OF the best engineers on
the rOad
