through the windpipes The men who
brought him to the hospital stated
the wound was accidental and was
caused by the discharge of pistol
which fell on the floor. Dyke says he
was common laborer working in the
vicinity of Sanger. He claims he was
sober at the time OF the injury, and
went into saloon. Charles Ellis, who
was under the influence of liquor, asked
him II he was q Canadian, and he told
him he was not. Ellis then, pointing
his pistol at him, said: "Then take
that" and fred, shooting him. Ellis
then dropped the pistol on the floor
and claimed the shooting was acci
dental. Dyke states some one then
drew up paper stating the shooting
was accidental and Ellis was not to
blame, and tried to get him to sign it,
but he refused to do go. Dyke is lying
in preearious condition. There is but
little chance for him to recover.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26.--T. j. Flem-
ing has been continued in his position OF
treasurer Of Los Angeles county by de-
cision of the supreme court, rendered
today. ]. De Barth Shorb was elected
to the Office of treasurer OF Los Angeles
county in November, 1892, but falling
sick, he in July last, made trip east,
not returning to Los Angeles until the
limit oil 60 daye' absence. fixed by stat
ute, had elapsed. Shorb was therefore
regarded as having forfeited his
Office, and T. j. Fleming was
elected in his place. But
when Fleming came to demand OF
Shorb's deputies the accounts and rec
ords OF his Office he was met with re-
bring suit in the superior court for his
rights. He won hSo case. the demurrer
OF Shorb's deputies being overruled,
and Flemng's demurrer to that answer
and his.cross-comp plaint being sustained
by the couIt below. From this
judgment an appeal was taken.
fhe main contention of the appeal
was that Shorb had not ipso iacto
forfeited the Office by remaining away
more than the limit allowed by statute,
but the gu )reme court held to decide
that way would be a misnterpretation
of the Law laid down in the code of civil
procedure. Fleming s, therefore. con-
tirmed in the Office of treasurer of Los
Angeles county.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-D. B. Robinson,
the Atchison general agent under the
receivers, said today: 'We are going
right along as we always have done.
We shall withdraw from no association
except for cause, and preserve all condi-
tions as far as possible as they existed
prior to the appointment of receivers.
We will not fight or make any difficulty
unless it is forced on us.'
New YORK, Dec. 26.-In the United
States circuit court today, Justice Brown
appointed Joseph w. Reinhart, John j.
McCook and j. G., Wilson auxiliary re-
ceiyers OF the .A.chiscn, Topeka and
Santa Fe. The same men have been
appointed to the same positions by the
courts OF several states. They will give q
bond of $4,000 each.
CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-Messrs. Reinhart,
McCook and Wilson were today ap-
pointed receivers of that portion of the
Atchison east of the Missouri.
BosToN, Dec. 26 The Union Trust
company of New York has filed bill
in the United States court, asking that
receivers be appointed for the Atchison
in Massachusetts. The court ia asked
to appoint the came men as have been
appointed by the court in Arkansas.
Topeka, Kan, Dec. 26.-Receiver

To this end he has been in consultation
with General Manager Frey the greater

York, which will be in few days, to
consult his associate receivers.
BosToN, Dec. 26.--Up to late hour
this afternoon the sheduled meeting of
the Atchison directors has not convened.
1t is thought it has been informally
postponed.
LONDON Dec. 26.-The Times. in it's
financial article, says that it is fortunate
for the proprietors that the Atchison
floating debt is comparatively moderate,
and if an equitable plan of relief is pro-
posed, it can he easily discharged by
$40 assessment on shares. Nothing
short of such levy would be tolerated
by the bondholders who were COM
PEELED to make sufficient con-
cessions in the reorganization of
1889, as to fully justify them in insisting
that cash should now be provided by
the stockholders. The fear of an as-
sessment may, however, in the present
case be somewhat mitigated by the dis
tribution among the shares of proper
tionate amount OF the new collateral
bonds, material for which the company
has at its disposal.

BRAZILIAN AFFAIRS.

The Nictheroy Returned to Psrnambu.
COMO Fresh News From Rio.
PERNAMBUCo, Dec. 26.-The Brazilian
dynamite cruiser Nictheroy, which put
to sea yesterday for the purpose, it was
said, OF engaging in battle with the
rebel war ships Republica and Aquids-
ban. which. it was reported, hsd gone
to the island of Fernando de Noronha to
impress the convicts there in the rebel
service, returned here this morning,
reporting she had been unable to find
the rebel ships. 1t is now said the
Nictheroy will await the coming of the
rebel ships here, and will fight them in
these waters.
News from Rio de Janeiro brings
little that ia fresh. Both sides claim
their opponents have been driven to the
last extremity and must soon give in.
The people would be relieved by decisive
action by either party. Both parties
continue to circulate fumors.
The government party declares foreign
governments are supporting Mello'e
cause with money, and that he is being
furnished money in the interest of the
monarchy, but that as soon as the
United States gets strong naval force
here that will be stopped, because the
United States must compel strict OBJ
servance of the Monroe doctrine: that
if this is done the collapse of the rebel
lion is only question of short time.
On the other hand the rebels claim
they are not seeking to restore the mon
archy, but to overthrow the dictator
ship OF Peixoto, and if the United States
extends sympathy to him it will be
against popular sentiment in Brazil.
They argue that they ought to be al
lowed to fight it out with Peixoto, and
that if allowed to do so they will soon
restore peace to the country.

A VERY GOOD SHOWING.
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC CuMPA-
NY'S EARNINGS.
Financial Depression Felt Less on tho
Pacific Coast Than Anywhere Else.
A Marked Falling on In
Its Land Sales.

SAN Francisco. Dec. 26.-Judging
from the statement of the earnings OF
the Southern Pacific railroad, the wave
OF depression that swept over the
country appears to have done less injury
to the Pacific coast than to any other
section OF the United States. The gross
earnings of the road up to the end of
October amounted $40. 1877 ,000 This is
1851 900 less than for the same time
last year. Although there will be de-
crease in the earnings OF the road this
year, it will be less than that expert,
enced by railroads in other sections of
the coratsy.
''Ths sale of granted land belonging to
the Central Pacific Railroad company
has been very small in 1898, compared
to the sales of the previous year." said
W. H. Mills, the company's land agent,
today. ''The business has not been
more than half what it ought to have
been; not more than half what itswss in
the lest 12 .monthe. ascribe this de-
crease in business to the low price OF
lumber and beef. Most of the lands
now held by the Central Pacific COM
pany are lumber and grazing lands.
When there is slow demand for beef
and lumber nobody is anxious to buy
our lands. In the Cspsy valley things
have been different. There we have dis
posed of AZ subdivisions of land, which
is equivalent to establishing AZ more
homes. Near Merced, Crocker lands are
aleo being taken rapidly"
Jerome Madden, land agent of the
Southern Pacific company, said: "The
situation this year has been deplorable.
l never saw it so bad. Actual sales
were 30 small that | am ashamed to
make statement for publication. The
total will not exceed 1900 acres. We
used to sell more than that in one day
and not think much Of it. In my mind
the depression has been caused by the
uncertainty in regard to tariff legisla-
ton. This has hung as cloud over the
whole country. Take it down in Fresno
county, for instance; with wheat at the
present price, what encouragement is
there for man to plant, when he knows
that his crop will net him deficit in
stead OF profit? There have been some
speculative sales in the year, but 1 do
not class them with the actual Gales.
One of these is the sale of about $4,000
acres near Summit lake in Fresno
county, where an extensive irrigation
eystem is being inaugurated. No profit
is expected from this system for four or
five years. The same may be said of the
disposed 500, 900 acres, more or less, in
the southern part OF this state to the
Colorado River Irrigation COMPANY"
3 Treasurer N. It. Smith, OF the South
ern Pacific company, said that though
the past year has been one OF slow busi-
ness in some ways, yet the company
has been kept on cash basis through
out, and that it's pay car is sent out
regularly on its monthly trips.

The New York and New England Road
IN Difficulties.
New YoRX, Dec. 2.-The Herald
says: 1t had often been said that there
would very likely be by midnight re-
ceivership for the New York and New
England. All the preparations were
secretly made to carry out such a pro-
gramme in the early hours of the morn
ing. but at the hour of publication it
cannot be definitely stated whether the
United States court judge has affixed
his signature to the order or not. At
a. N. several lawyers and stock brok-
ers were scurrying around trying
to find Judge Lacombe, who had come
down from his country residence at
Athens, N. ", presumably on this very
errand. The purpose was to steal a
march on President Mcleod and get a
hostile receiver appointed. Among the
parties who took the leading interest in
the proceedings last evening, were Fred
erick III. Prince of Boston, Spencer e..
Erwin of Philadelphia and Thomse G..
Platt, all directors OF the New Englnd

SAN Francisco, Dec. 26.-James B.
Lsnkershim was surety on the official
bond of j. w. Broaded, as treasurer OF
Los Angeles county, for the term of two
years, commencing January 1, 1887.
Suit wac brought to recover the amount
of the alleged delinquencies of the treas-
urer, during his term, and in that suit
judgment was rendered against Lanker-
shin for $79l0.S0. The supreme court
today affirmed this judgment, except as
to $3.50 which the treasurer claimed to
have oeen justified in paying out OF the
school fund. As to this amount jndg-
ment is reversed and new trial or

lby tne Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Minister Mem
donca believes the crisis in the Brazilian
revolution is at hand and that the de-
cisive stroke will be made this week.
He says the two great IRON clads OF the
rebel commander, Mello, and the fotilla
of little torpedo craft hastily impro-
vised by Peixoto are rapidly nearing
each other. The minister says that q
collision ia almost certain before next
Monday. He recognizes that the little
torpedo and dynamite boats are tremen-
dously overmatched by the rebel ships,
but counts much on the ability of the
small boats to maneuver quickly and dis
charge their novel explosives. Mendon-
ca is hopeful and confident that Mello's
fleet will be defeated and that Peixoto'a
ships will then be able to turn their at
tention to the other rebel admiral
Cana, who ia in Rio harbor.
