until recently, been making $500 per

what some people now at the capital arr

NEVADA SOUTHERN RAILROAD.

The San Francisco Call says the Neva-
da Southern Railroad may yet
assume more important proportions. If
present plans are carried to successful
fruition. Isaac E. Blake, president and
owner of the road, says that arrange
ments are being perfected to build about
100 miles more to the 80 odd now COM
pleted. with the object Of finally reach
ing and connecting with the Utah Cen.
trail road for Salt Lake City. thur creating
the new line long desired by Los Angeles
and Southern California.
Mr. Blake says that on the line OF the
road, twenty miles OF Vanderbilt and
just about on the State line. is great
deposit of nitrates which will prove to
be source of wealth whom railroad
transportation is afforded. At Good
Springs, further into Nevada, are extern
sive and rich lead ores. and at the point
where the next 100 miles will terminate
are the coal deposits. It is understood
that an attempt will be made to secure
money for constructing a section OF the
road by novel plan. Mr.. Blake will
undertake to sell in Southern California
l6, 900 tons Of coal at S. ton, to be de-
livered Eve months after the contract is
let for building the road, collecting the
cash in advance and giving collateral Sc
curity for the delivery Of the coal. Mr..
Blake owns all the company's stock and
intends to retain control after he parts
with some Of his holdings. The road
will be bonded for 81, 100000.
A dispatch from Los Angeles says that
President Blake of the Nevada Southern
Railway is in the city This road ex.
tends now from Golf station, ON the
Atlantic and Pacific Railway, few mile,
west OF Needles to the Vanderbilt and
New York mining districts.
Mr.. Blake makes the absolute statement
that the road will be at once extended
with all the energy and dispatch possible
to the coal fields of Southern Utah
This statement is coupled with no reser
vations whatever.
The company has secured the right o
way and the means to carry its road TO
one hundred miles farther than its pre-
sent terminus, and that will bring tn
cars into the center of the coal fields o
Utah. Los Angeles will then have fue
of a very superior quality laid down her
for Sc a ton at the most.

ENGLAND'S ATTITUDE.

At Heart She Would Be Glad to SEQ the
United States Annex the Sandwich Islands.
NEW YORK. Feb. 5.-Regarding Englana's
attitude IN the Hawaiian affair. the London
correspondent of morning paper cables:
Whatever may be said, England at heart
would be glad to see America annex the
Hawaii islands. She has too much TO look
after and does not want them, but does not
want any other country, except America,
10 interfere. Here is her attitude as
voiced by the Speaker (newspaper) to-day:
1.-THE first article of England's foreign
policy in the future must be the cultivation
of an identity of interests with America,
with the ultimate aim of forming great
defensive alliance of, the English speak
ing powers. We must stand by America in
the course which the natural expansion OF
her interests prescrl hes to her as necessary.
10 statesman Who can see beyond his nose
has failed to note the tendencies which are
driving America from her comfortable en-
trenchment of negatlon in the Monroe
doctrine. Her interests and her RESPONSE
bllities abroad have grown in spite of her,
and have become too great to permit her to
continue in her Old and bllsSful inditfer-
ence to external affairs. The alliance of
kindred blood. kindred speech, kindred In
terests will be that between the great
powers of the English-speaking race. The
two will be able to stand for civilization
against all its enemies and may prove the
ultimate savlors of culture and peace"

ANNA DICKINSON WANTS 1925, 900.
She Claims to Have Been Wronpfully Sent to
an Insane Asylum, and Now Seeks Damages.

SCRANTON, Pa, Feb. 5.-Miss Anna E.
Dickinson, lecturer and actress, yesterday
brought three suits in tho Circuit Court of
the United States. directed against eight
persons. two of whom are physicians. ask
ing damages in the aggregate sum of S125,-
OOO These suits are directed against
the persons who were instr umental
in lodging her in tho Danville Asylum of
the Insane. The main suit is against James
Courtwright George B. Thompson, Allen
Eggleston. John 8. Heilman, George Under
wood and Henry Dryden. In this $50 900
damages are asked. In the second suit DR..
George Underwood is made defendant and
damages placed at $4,000. The third suit
Is against DIR. James Oglesby. of Danvllle,
from whom damages are asked In the sum
of S25, 900.
Miss Dickinson. after referring to her
alleged forcibie removal to an asylum. de-
clares that the exalninatio as to her con-
dition vas made hastily. improperly. negli-
gently and insufficIeptly done by the
two physicians summoned. In con-
sequence of her imprisonment she
suffered mental and physical agony,
was subjected to indignities and
pain from wounds and from exposure, and
for five weeks was kept In the asylum, dur
ing which time she was prevented from
pursuing her vocation O lecturer. For
these reasons she believes that she is en-
titled to damages in the aggregate sum of
Sl25, 600, which she now claims. The case
will probably be tried at the March term of
court.
