CONTRACT FOR THE TIES
The Directors Agreement to

STOCKTON, Call, June 1.-The direc-
tors OF the San Joaquin Valley Railroad
have verified their promise made at the
inception of the enterprise in regard to
favoring local contractors and labor when
ever possible by letting the contract for
100000 ties to L. a. White, the lumber
dealer, of this city and San Francisco. The
shipment of the ties will begin at once by
water.
A gentleman whose word is unquestion-
able, and who has been prominent worker
for the success of the enterprise, stated yes
terday, on his return from San Francisco
that the work of construction from this
city would positively be begun by June Is.
AS soon as the vessels now en- route from
New York to San Francisco arrive at port
the cargo of steel rails will be loaded on
barges and sent directly up the river. The
ship is expected at San Francisco within a
week. The rails will be landed on the rail-
roads property, formerly known as the
Without tract.

TROUBLE At GUERNENLLE,
Dog-OWners Indignant Over a
Wholesale Killing of
Their Animals.
Two Score of Ours and Pedigreed
CANNES Meet Death In a
Single Night.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, June There is
wailing among the dog-owners of Guerne-
vile, caused by a wholesale slaughter of
CANNES Thursday night. For some time
there have been muttered threats of war
against the four-legged choristers of the
midnight hour. Hostilities opened in
earnest Thursday night when some one
scattered quantities of SUPERINTENDENT
meat over the town.
Yesterday morning dead dogs were
found in every street and alley, under
houses and barns and in fancy kennels.
Within an hour after daylight the corpses
of forty unfortunate CANNES had been
gathered together and hurried to the dogs
cemetery. The wholesale slaughter caused
a sensation. Among those who went down
in the front ranks were valuable pointers
and settlers, and several hounds that erst
pursued the fleet rabbit to its lair will
never more lend their bay to the noise of
the chase.
The owners of the animals are wild with
indignation. Rewards are offered for the
apprehension of the guilty culprit, and it
is even said that detectives will be en-
gagged to ferret him out. Every effort will
be made to avenge the disgracefu death of
the howlers, and the massacre of Guerne-
ville's dogs threatens to inaugurate bit
ter feud in the little city. .5

END OF A LONG SEARCH.
1t Is Supposed to Be That of
Miss NeWkom,a Drowned
Months Ago.
SAD ACCIDENT AT EUREKA
Suicide of Rancher at Nanaimo
Los Angeles Bonds Declared
Illegal.

MARYSVILLE, CAL, June 1.-The
body of woman, supposed to be that OF
Miss Pauline Newkom, was found floating in
Feather River last night by George Baker.
He was fishing in, the river near the
Knights Landing railroad bridge when
the discovery was made. The only arti.
Giles of apparel which remained on the
body were shoes and hose, and the friends
of the long-missing woman will be called
upon to identify the corpse by these alone.
Evidently the body had long been buried
in the sand.
Prior to February 81, 1898, Miss Newkom
was employed as typewriter for White,
Cooley d Cults. On the evening of that
day she had gone boat-riding with Mr..
Woodwork, to whom it was known she
had been engaged to be married Young
Woodworth's body was recovered the next
day not far from the boat, which was half
filled with water and in the bottom of
which was his overcoat. The river was
dragged with hooks and dynamite was
used for the purpose of floating Miss New
kom's body, but it was not found, although
the search continued for several days.

FOR THE sNORERS.

A Suggestion as to How to Get Rid of
the Noisy infection.
A story of Lord Aberdeen as snorer is
going the rounds.
One morning, after night on the rail-
way, fellow passenger asked his lordship
whether he was man of wealth.
Humoring the man, whom he took for a
crank, Aberdeen admitted that he was pos
sessed OF considerable property.
How much ?''
well, perhaps f15o.ooo. But why do
you ask? ''
"WeIl," was the rejoinler, eff I were
worth as much as you are and snored as
loudly I would take railway carriage to
myself, so that my fellow passengers
might sleep little"
A Philadelphia woman, having suffered
much in mind and body by her husband S
snoring, finally applied for divorce from
him on the ground of cruelty.
Her attorney filed the bill of divorce, but
disliking to go to an extreme went to work
to find cure for snoring, and did it.
The remedy consists of olive oil and mus
tard, six drops of the former to pinch of
the latter, taken just before going to bed.
The function of the oil is that of lubri-
can't to the larynx, while the mustard is a
counter irritant.
The defendant tried the remedy and
found it worked like charm, and now the
family are once more happy in their home.

VARIED ARE THEIR VIEWS,
An Interesting Poll of the
Members of the Next
Congress.
Southern and Far Western States
Almost Unanimous for Free
Coinage.

NEW YORK, n. Y, June 1.-The Worlo
Tomorrow will publish Geographic poll
of the next Congress as far as obtained on
the silver, tariff and income tax. The
World sums up the result as follows
In general way it may be said that out
of 116 who gave unequivocal answers to
the silver question fifty five are in favor of
free coinage, forty-four favor bimetallism
generally, with the proviso of an inter-
national agreement.
Only seventeen can be fairly elassed as
favoring single gold standard, and the
attitude of some of these even is not def
mite. The South and far Western States
are almost unanimous for free coinage,
the Central States lean toward silver, with
international bimetallic qualifications, and
it is only in New York, New England and
adjacent Eastern States that there are any
avowedly gold-standard men.
In regard to the tariff only twenty eight
members are against any change while
thirty-fye favor moderate changes and
thirty-nine are pronounced for radical
changes. A few are free-traders. The
moderates are chiefly those who think
changes will be necessary in order to in
crease revenues.
The income tax question brought out
many sharp and piquant answers. Forty
nine Congressman say they favor the prin-
ciple of the tax. Forty-seven oppose it.
A great many evaded the question or failed
to answer it.
A few details by States will be interest
ing. Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colo
RADIO, Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, Mon
tana, Nevada, North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, South Dakota, Virginia, Washington
and Wyoming are solid for silver
SO far as heard from. The bimetallists
are chiefly in Delaware, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa. Kansas, Louisiana, Michi-
gan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio,
Pennsylvania and West Virginia. New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, Massachusetts, and Vermont have
the gold delegation. Alabama, Arkansas,
Texas. the Carolinas, Georgia. Louisiana
and most of the Southern States are solid
for the income tax. New York and the
East generally oppose it. Elsewhere the
division is about equal.
