which tracks of the older corporation were

and the case assigned to Judge Slack for
hearing.
About 8 o'clock in the afternoon Deputy
Sheriff Flynn hastened to the scene of war
with summons TO be served upon the
superintendent or foreman in charge of
Mr.. Sutro's interests, little thinking that
he would have any difficulty in serving the

prospectorS for duck-shooting grounds the
president OF the club states that any gen.

they will have the support OF sportsmen In

THE VALLEY ROAD.
Leeds Explains the Obligation of
Banks to Support IL.


The tourist travel still continues TO at
tract more than passing notice from the
Southern Pacific officials and is said to be
quite up to the usual volume at this season
of the year. Last Saturday two of the
tourist companies-the Judson and tn
Phllips-turned over 10 the Southern Pa
cific at Ogden 108 home-seekers, who will
settle in this State. Many of them have
ALREADY make the necessary arrangements
for settling, while the others will look over
some Of the promising localities.
The proposed stoppage of all passes to
shippers which was agreed upon by the
representatives of Western roads a. their
meeting in St Louis few DAYS ago has
no bearing upon the Southern Pacific CON-
paDy. That corporation, Stubs says,
stopped such transportation over year
ago and there is consequently no necessity
that the road should become party 10
that part OF the contract. There seems to
be probability that the Southern Pacific
will not acquiesce In any of the details of
that agreement, preferring to govern the
Issuance Of passes In its own way.
Investigations by Traffic Manager Leeds
as 20 the extent the banks of the State are
financially Interested In the San JOAQUIN
Valley develop some remarkable figures,
For instance. his Investigations show that
the banks of this city and of the San
Joaquin Valley have loaned upon real
es ate in that region over $4,000 600. OF
this amount, Mr.. Leeds says. over ST., OOO,-
600 has been loaned by the banks of
this city, one bank alone holding $4,000 600
in mortgage paper. The point made by
the gentleman ia that the excessive rates
charged by the Southern Pacific COMPANY
materially retards the development of this
section an0 if the banks were compelled to
foreclose to-day they could not secure the
face value of their claims. The competing
road with the introduction of lower fares.
would increase the value of the property.
and for this reason, he argues, the banks
should be liberal supporters of the propo-
sifinn
