BURNED SNOW SHEDS.
DastardIy Work of Incendiaries on the
Central Pacific Line.
Rewards Offered for the Miscreants'
Arrest-A Fire Train Caught
and Burned.

Late Friday night fire broke out in
the snow sheds on the Central Pacific
line about 800 feet west of Summit sta
ton and the flames were not extinguished
until late in the forenoon of Saturday.
About 200 feet of sheds were destroyed.
The fire train which is kept at Summit
went to the scene Immediately and did
some heroic work.
A second fire was discovered early
Saturday morning between Soda Springs
and Cascade. Here the flames broke out
simultaneously in three or four different
places, destroying 1000 feet more of sheds.
The fire trains at Blue Canyon and
Truckee were then hurried to the scene
and gallant battle with the flames en-
sued.
At the Summit fire the flames ragged so
tiercely that the firemen became hemmed
in and in order to save their lives had to
abandon the fire train. The locomotive
and water cars were lost.
A fourth fire train was sent up from
RocklIn Saturday evening, but when it
arrived the fire had been subdued.
The work OF repairing and clearing the
track was then lnaugurated and carried
on until late Saturday night in order that
the delayed overland trains might get
through. Forces of men were sent from
Truckee and this city with ties and rails
and the repairing was done rapidly.
The fact that the fire broke out in so
many different places at the same time
demonstrates beyond doubt that one or
more incendiaries were at work. The
Southern Pacific officials are satisfied that
this is the case, and have offered reward
of 81 900 for the arrest and conviction of
each of the miscreants, should there be
more than one of them. Notices have
been sent out to all the Sheriffs, Chiefs of
Police, etc, and it is hoped that the ras-
Gals will be overhauled.

He Enters the House of an Old
Lady.
Mrs. Rec, an old lady who lives alone
in small house in the alley between G.
and II, Seventh and Eighth streets, was
awakened about 2 O'Clock yesterday
morning by noise in one OF her rooms.
The old lady got up and saw man
getting out one of the windows to the
front porch. She went out of the door
and caught the man, endeavoring, with
out success, to hold him. She shouted
for help and blew police whistle, but
the fellow escaped.
She had been down the evening before
to market and thinks the burglar may
have secreted himself in the house dur
ing her absence. He got into the back
yard by climbing over a large pile of
kindling wood which was partially over
turned.
Mrs. Rec has been sick and is very
feeble and the shock and fright was a Sc
we're trial for her. She thinks the thief
only secured So or 81 in money and some
small articles.
She reported to the officers yesterday
morning and a man named Joe Stevens
was arrested by Chief Rodgers on sus-

and has been seen by neigh bors to prowl
about the premises, and two or three per-

and despite their shadows and moral de-

such excusing phases as to command for

New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE HerdIdS
Panama correspondent says: News comes
here of a state bordering on anarchy in
Venezuela. While the Governments old
soldiers have been plundering private
houses in La Guayra and Caracas, Die

He orders the immediate confiscation of

BEET SUGAR ENTERPRISE.
The Old Factory on Andrus Island to

Referring to the proposed reopening of
the old beet sugar factory on Andrus
Island, the Rio Vista NelCS says: 1.-THE
building is not now attractive. The bats,
rats and mice reign supreme, and the
window lights are nearly all broken by
mischievous boys throwing missiles.
The smokestacks have succumbed to the
center of gravity and lie on the top of the
rear shed roof or upon the ground. The
day is dawning along the horizon when
this property shall present more favor
able appearance.
"a Mr.. Smith of San Francisco, for
merly an engineer in this factory, and
his son, who has been running a sugar
factory in Honolulu for twenty-five
years, have looked through the factory,
have seen the owners and have concluded
to open the once noted sugar factory of
Isleton. They will begin to remove the
machinery about the lst of November
and replace it with modern machinery.
Their lease begins with 1893, and with
the privilege of buying. The factory has
been closed down since 1881. Beets will
be raised on the island and converted
into sugar."

Starving Immigrants In Quarantine at
Windsor, Ont.
DETROIT (Mich.), Sept. u.-Fifty or
sixty immigrants, who arrived at Wind
sor, Ont, to-day over the Canadian Pa
cific Railway from Quebec, were held
there to await the decision of the Detroit
health officials as to whether they can en-
ter the city. Government Inspector Null
hern has decided to have them held at
Windsor pending conference with the
health authorities tomorrow.
Sixty Immigrants who stopped at the
border Friday night were released from
quarantine by decision of DIR. Frank
Wells of the State Board of Health. He
says the quarantine restrictions apply
only to those immigrants entering Amer
lea by Canadian ports. These immigrants
came through the New York harbor.
The release brings the State and local
boards into conflict. Health officer DUFF
field says under no consideration can
these immigrants pass the river, except
by decision OF the local Board of Health.
The situation Of the immigrants in the
meantime is pitiful. Two cars were side
tracked on the river bank at Walkerville,
Ont, Saturday night, and this morning
they awoke fairly famished. But few Of
them possessed money, and they bid fair
to starye. There was not a morsel of
food on the cars, and not one had had a
warm meal since Thursday. At o'clock
hunger drove them out of the cars, and
they tlocked to neighboring houses for
food, begging from door to door for what
bites they could get. AS soon as their
condition was made known, q number of
kind ladies went to their relief.
