LA GRANDE DEPOT.
Arrival of Three Ovsrlands-A Frelgh
IN

Arrival of Three Ovsrlands-A Freight
Sent Out.
The running of all local trains-with
two exceptons-the arrival of three
eastern overland trains and the sending
out of a freight train, was the record OF
the Santa Fe yesterday. Almost the
entire traffic of that road was in opera
ton yesterday.
The announcement that the overlands
would arrive with great quantities OF
mail and many passengers had the effect
of causing throng of people to be pree-
ent at the depot most all day.
The overland arriving in the forenoon
came in two sections. the first OF which.
reached the city at O'Clock. 1t con-
slated OF mail and express car, one day
coach, three tourist sleepers and two
Pullmans. There were upwards of SO
passengers aboard, mcst OF whom came
from points west OF La Junta. The
train was guarded by detachment OF
regular troops. 1t was given out that
this train left Chicago June 9th, while
the other section lett that city two days
later.
1t was nearly ! l O'Clock when the sec-
ond section pulled into La Grande depot.
This train was made up OF five express,
mail and baggage cars, two Pullmans
and day coach. There we're only few
passengers aboard, those on this train
when it started having changed to the
other train.
The train leaving Chicago on June
29th caught up with the one leaving on
the 9th. and together they were TIED
up at different points along the route.
Another overland arrived at La Grande
depot at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
heavily laden with mail and express
matter. 1t consisted of mail. express
and baggage cars, tourist sleepers and
two day coaches.
The only trouble the Southern Califor-
mia railway encountered was the inabil-
ity to obtain men to take out the train
over the kite. shaped track via Orange,
leaving here at 440 p. m. The train
wss oil made up, but no crew was to be
had.
The came is true regarding the after.
noon train to San Diego. The railway
company had practically exhausted all
employ of whom are non-
union men-and had to await the return
OF some of the crews who went out in
the forenoon.
Several OF the regular engineers APP
piled for work at the Santa Fe Office
yesterday, while many of the Oldest
employees called for al! back wages.
The first train got out by the Santa Fe
left the city at 2 O'Clock yesterday alter
noon, with full complement of train
men. 1t was destined for the east, but
had no perishabs freight aboard. A

The Santa Fe Overland Was Not De-
layed to Any Extent.
By typographical error the HERALD
was made to say yesterday that the San
ia Fe overland, which left here Tuesday
morning, was delayed 10 hours at San
Dimas. Two hours was intended. Gen
eral Passenger Agent Thompson OF the
Santa Fe stated yesterday that the train
was delayed but few moments. The
company knew Of the burning long be-
fore the train lett this city, and had re-
paired the break before the train
reached the place.
Mr.. Thompson said that there was no
doubt but that the fire was the work Of
an incendiary.
The San Bernardino Times-Index
gives the following account of the affair
About l 40 this morning the railroad
authorities in this city were notified OF
the burning of trestle at Santa Anita.
about two miles the other side OF Lords
burg. A wrecking crew left this city for
that point at about a. m. They found
the fire as reported. The ties and
stringers had been burned, and the
work of repairing was at once com.
menced and the line was opened with
only a slight delay to the east-bound
overland. An investigation showed that
it was the work of incendiaries. The
trest!e was fired at the east end, but
splinters and decayed ends of ties had
been gathered for about a mile weet OF
the trestle. The timbers had been sat.
urated with coal oil and the fire lighted
with papers. In the gIlch below was
found an old lard can in which was
some coal oil, indicating the means
used to start the fire.

Another Sunset Overland and d Freigh hit
Sent Ont Yesterday.
The Southern Pacific yesterday sent
out its usual quota of local trains, as
we'll as one overland for Yuma, which
lett at noon with one Pullman. There
were no passengers on the latter coach,
and the train was in charge of detech-
ment OF regulars under the command OF
Lieut.. Phister, who lett the train at Col
ton atation. The next event of the day
wae the sending out OF freight train
shortly after o'clock for Yuma, which
was escorted outside of the city limits.
Superintendent Burkhalter of the
Mojave division is figuring on eending
freight train north prior to making the
attempt to send out passenger train to
San Francisco. 1t seems to be exceed
ingy difficult to secure train crew who
are willing to run passenger train
with Pullmans north. 1t is thought,
however, that it may be possible to get
crew who will run freight train in
that direction, and that is now Superin-
tendent Burkhalter's ambition. It is
probable that an ATTEMPT to start the
train will be made some time this morn
ing. II such train is sent out it will
be under the protection of strong
guard of troops to insure its passing Te-
hachepi and Bakersfield, where matters
have IN some degree queted down.
The Santa Barbara train which ar.
rived at 8 O'Clock was closely guarded
from the moment it reached the limits
OF the city. Chief OF Police Glass with
squad Of mounted policemen were 10
cate0 between the Buena Vista street
and the upper river bridge. The shades
on the car windows were all drawn and
the passengers were somewhat anxious.
Il detachment OF 16 regulars under
command of Lieutenant Lincoln Kill
bourne was stationed at the river bridge
where they boarded the train. The in.
stractions of the soldiers were to fire on
any persons throwing stones at the cars
and the soldiers were stationed on the
platforms ready for business. At the
San Fernando street station about 600
people were assembled in a line along
the middle Of the street. Nothing was

Pacifc-The Events of
Yeaterday.

The railway companies continued to
operate many OF their local trains yes
terdsy and cent out overland express
trains to the east. Several freight trains
were also sent out.
The railway officials state that they
had many applications for places from
their former employees. The A. r. U.
men deny this and say they are stand
ing firm.
Judge Ross gave further instructions
to the grand jury, but few other events
occurring in the federal court, the pend
ing cases being postponed.
1t is expected that the San Francisco
train will leave for the north early this
morning. 1t will probably be preceded
by freight train.
A rumor was widely circulated last
night that tho strikers had agreed 10 60
to work today. and that number of the
firemen had, at meeting yesterday at
tha Grand View hotel, decided on such
q course. This WAS vigorously contra.
dicted by the A. R. U. men.
Three Santa Fe overlands arrived yes
terday from the east with mail and pass
engers. The same company dispatched its
Chicago train yesterday morning, and
the southern Pacific dispatched its east
bound New Orleans overland. Several
freight trains were sent out on the Santa
Fe and one on the Southern Pacific.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS

Judge Ross Lays Down the Law to the
Federal Grand Jury.
As soon as the crier had opened court
Judge Ross stated that he had been
asked by one of the jurors for instruc-
tions upon certain points in addition to
those already given, and he proceeded to
read the following, to which marked at
tention was given by everybody in the
court room.
Contrary to expectation Judge Ross
did not take up any of the contempt
cases in the United States court yester-
dav morning, and the various people
who have proceedings pending against
them are still on the anxious seat as to
what their fate will be.
In anticipation OF interesting develop
ments the court room was filled with
spectators when Judge Ross appeared,
and the grand jury occupied the jury
box. The instructions were as follows:
GENTLEMEN OF THE GRAND JURY -
One OF your number has asked for fur
ther instructions respecting the law
bearing upon the subject under your in
vestigation. You have already been in
formed by the court that under and by
virtue of provisions OF the statutes OF
the United States all railroads or parts
OF railroads which are now in operation
are post-roads, and that every railroad
company in the United States whose
road ia operated by steam is authorized
to carry upon and over it's road, boats,
bridges and ferries, all passengers,
troops, government supplies, mails,
freight and property on their way from
any state to another state, and to con-
meet with roads of other states 60 ss to
form continuous lines for the trnnspor-
tation OF the same to the place OF deeti-
nation. And that railroad which ia q
link ia o through line of road by which
passengers and freight are carried into
state from other states, and from that
state to other states, is engaged in the
business of interstate commerce, and
that every combination or conspiracy
in restraint of such trade or commerce
is by statute declared to be illegal and
the persons so combining or conspiripg
are by law guilty OF the coEmission OF y
crime, whether they be railroad presi-
dents, managers, euperintendents, con-
ductors, engineers, brakemen or fire.

FEDERAL GRAND JURY.

Strikers Examined Before That Body
Yesterday.
The federal grand jury was in session
all day yesterday. 1t had been intimated
that the body would likely report, but
this proved untrue.
Late last evening several persons sup
posed to know something about the
overturning of the cars on the Southern
Pacific the night before, were called be-
fore the jury. In fact, nearly all who
were there as witnesses were strikers or
eympathizers of the American Railway
union.
A report is looked for from the body
almost at any time the court convenes,
and perhaps today something will trana-
pire to show what the labors OF the
grand jury have been about.
The instructions of Judge Ross yester-
day were commented upon freely az be-
ing wise opinion of the situation.
Even some OF the strikers who heard the
instructions read to the grand jury ex-
pressed o desira to assist in the finding
OF the men whe overturned the Southern
Pacific freight care, and said they should
be sunmarily dealt with.
The grand jury adjourned ct the usual
hour last evening, after day of hard
labor.
