THE ROAD FROM SAN DIEGO TO

A Big Mass Meeting HeId-The Pro-
ject to be Brought to the Atten-
ton of Salt Lake Business Men

(SneciaI to The Herald.l


San Diego, Cal, May 19.-Fisher Opera
house was damned full last night in re-
Spouse to a call for public expression re-
garding the San Diego, Pacific and East
ern railroad project, from this city to Salt
Lake. George G. Vroman, of Omaha, re-
Gently elected president of the road, was
present, and was greeted with great en-
thusiaSm.
President Morse, of the Chamber of
Commerce, presided, and the speakers
were Judge j. Wade Mcdonald, Eli H.
Murray. ex-governor of Utah, President
Vroman and others.
Woman outlined the plan of building
the road, which is to enlist the co-opera-
ton of the railroad men of the country
who will build, own and control 1t. The
movement is the outgrowth of a struggle
between railways and employees, and it
is believed will offer relief in establishing
a precedent of wages in future disputes.
Letters from brotherhoods all over the
country were read pledging financial sup
port The audience subscribed $1,000 for
printing the prospectus ard placing the
proposition before the railroad men of the
country, and assurance was given Of San
Diegos support. The matter will be
brought to the attention of the business
men of Salt Lake. President Vroman will
go east in a few days to work among the
railroad men. He has great influence,
having been chairman of the grievance
committee of the Brotherhood of the
Union Pacific.

CAN THE HEART BREAK.
Physicians Say Not, Yet the Imagin-
alton often Plays Sad Franks.

Grief does not kill, and it is, indeed,
very seldom that heavy sorrow causes
| death to any one, when in healthy
condition, says the Buffalo Times. 1t
is. however. very often the indirect
cause of death, either by bringing
disease to a climax, or by rendering
the sufferer more liable to its attack
If man is convinced that his grief
is more than he can bear, those who
have studied the matter agree that
through the force of his own magma
ton the man will actually die of a
broken heart"
The great Napoleon was killed by
an internal disease, but it is supposed
that it would not have been fatal had
not his spirits been so depressed
through exile and defeat. William
Pitt, the orator, is said to have died
from a broken heart" caused by
his great grief at the failure of his
cherished hopes and plans. And there
have been many other such instances
in the history of this county. When
plaques are raging in a town, statis-
tics show that as many die from
fright and imaginary causes as from
the real epidemic, so great a hold
has the fear of death on some people.
If a man is condemned to be shot,
1t has often occurred that on the
word fire he has dropped lifeless,
although, through accident or design,
no bullet has in reality left the gun.
There is queer case on record
concerning the daughter of a cele-
brated French novelist, who was deeply
interested in one of her fathers sto-
ries. 1t appeared in installments, and
the heroine was suffering from con-
sumption. AS the girl brooded over
the sad fate of the heroine, she, too,
suddenly manifested the same symp-
toms. A physician recommended her
father to restore the heroine to health,
which he did a few chapters on, and
at the same time as the girl in the
novel recovered, so also did his too
sentimental daughter.

WITHOUT A PARALLEL.
HYPNOTISM MAY CUT 4 BIG FIG
URE.
Confession Made by n Woman While
on Her Death Bed May Result in
Ornamenting the GaIIOws.

Anderson, Ind, May ia scene be-
lieved to be without a parallel was en-
acted here today. A judge of the cir
cult, aided by the court stenographer,
took down the statements of a dying
woman, under the influence of hypno-
tism. Should the judge accept the
statements as true they will cut a
great figure in a murder mystery.
George Hires was sentenced by Judge
FHlf~"n IN thirteen Years in the 0e"i-
tentiary on conviction of the murder
of William Foust ON July 8 last The
main witness against him was Maggie
Bottom. After the trial she confessed
that her testimony was false and that
she herself had done the deed.
DR.. J. B. Callen, who claims to have
hypnotic powers. was granted permits
sion to place the woman in the hyp-
MOTTO state to ascertain which of her
statements was the correct one.
Today Judge Ellison, the official
court stenographer and DR.. Callen
went to the hospital where Mrs Bottom
is said to be on her deathbed from
these witnesses, soon had the woman
in the hypnotic stage. Mrs. Bottom
spoke in a loud, clear tone, though
heretofore, ON account of her weak
ness she was scarcely able to whisper.
Mrs cotton seemed TO I've agai~ N
the night of the crime, and in a forci-
BILE manner she recounted the details
of the crime. Mrs. Bottom said the
shot that killed Foust was fired by
Hires. Her confession that she had
done the deed was eXtorted from her
by Hires, who said the authorities sus-
pected her son. She then shouldered
the crime to shield her son. After she
had been brought out Of the hypnotic
state she did not remember anything Of
what she had just told.
Judge Ellison was greatly impressed,
but he declined to state what effect
it would have on his ruling in the case.
A motion for a new trial for Hires Is
pending.

London, May 19.-If the case of Miss
Birdie Sutherland, the chorus girl in
the Gaiety theatre, against the Hon.
Dudley Churchill Majoriban]ks, oldest
son of Baron Tweedmouth, for breach
OF promise, ever comes into court,it
will be the most sensational trial since
Miss Fortscue. the actress, won 10000
from Lord Gormoyle on a similar
charge.
Miss Sutherland is very handsome,
being nearly six feet tall and only IS
years old. Her real name is Annie
Louise Watkins.
She first met the Hon. Dudley Major
blanks at the Prince of Wales club. 1t
was a case of love at first sight. He
proposed and was accepted. When his
parents learned of the affair they were
very much disturbed.
Mr.. Majoribank went to Canada with
his mother on visit to the Earl of
aberdeen, governor general of Car.ada.
The young man did not return with
his mother to England but remained
IN Canada and the match was broken
off. Miss Sutherland then placed the
case in the hands of a well known
theatrical lawyer, who retained in her
behalf Sir Edward Clarke, who de-
tended Oscar Wilde in his recent trial
Mr.. c. F. Gill, who appeared against
Wilde on behalf of the treasury and
various other legal talent has also been
retained

Washington, May 19.-Mr. John Berken-
blne, the iron ore expert of Philadelphia,
has prepared for the division of mineral
resources of the United States geological
survey an exhaustive report of the iron
ore resources of the world, in which the
production of iron ore In 1893 is estimated
at about 52,5OO,OOO long tons.
The portion of this report relating to
the United States shows the total produc-
ton of iron ore in this country in 1894
was 11,S79679 long tons of 2,24O pounds, as
compared with II, 5S7, 629 long tons in 1898.
This is an increase of about 215 per cent.
This. production is only 70 per cent. of the
maximum production of the United States
namely: 16,296666 long tons, which was
the output in 1892, but is slightly greater
than that OF 1893, the proportion in that
remarkable falling off. The falling off is
further shown by the statement that the
average production for the years from
1889 to 1882 inclusive, was 1920, 4S2 long
tons, difference of 1925, S2S tons.
OF the classes of iron ore mined, the red
hematite continues to be the leading vari-
ETY., being IS per cent. of the total pro-
duction, brown hematite magnetic and
carbonite following in the order named,
the last being only about three-fourths of
one per cent of the total product. The
number of blast furnaces in operation
also shows an increase over 1898. The
number in blast at the close of 1893 was
1877; at the close of 1894, 1S5.
Twenty-four states produced iron ore in
1884, ranging in amount from 4, 419 OLA tons
in Michigan to 1915 tons IN Maryland.
Most of the increase noted above in pro-
duction was in the Lake Superior region,
Minnesota showing the greatest increase,
from l, 499 e27 tons in 1898, to 1850. 1853 tons
in 1894, ranking second among the iron
producing states, while in 1898 she was
third.
Michigan continues to be the largest
producer, holding this rank for six years.
Alabama is third, Virginia fourth and
Pennsylvania fifth.
noted. the total value of the product was
S13,577, 1926, or S1.14 ton as compared with
$40. 265, 1913, or S1.66 a ton in 1893.
Michigan also leads the country in the
value of her iron ores In 1894 they were
worth $5,S44.955. while Texas foots the list
with a value of s11,521.

POLO ON WHEELS.
Novel Use For the Bike Which
Was Not a Startling Success.

''Tell you what it is, feHahs," re-
Gently remarked member of a. live
English club during discussion upon
polo, ''the bicycle is the ideal polo
pony; he is fair to lo,k upon as the
lilies of the field, but, better than
that, he is willing to toll and to spin,
and he costs nothing for training,
feeding and attendance.
From this sagacious remark resulted
an experiment. at once novel, exciting,
and-if the truth must be told-disap-
pointing. Eight experts in cycling
and polo formed two teams to test the
usefulness of the wheel as a substitute
Tor the polo pony, and a match was
played In it the players filed the
usual positions of polo-i. E., two for
wards" 'half-back'' and a black"
1t did not take the players long to
discover that the silent steed was not
in it. The wheels were fast enough
and handy enough for certain plays,
but one grand requisite was entirely
lacking. The wonderful intelligence
of the trained polo pony, which keeps
the little eager animals in close pur-
suit of the ball, and helps many a
rider to avoid a smash, was conspicu-
Gus by its absence.
The remark, The pony plays better
than his rider" could not be applied
to the bike. A smart pony can be
trusted to perform many necessary
evolutions without the aid of his
rider. while the wheels require the
closest kind of attention. This alone
Is quite sufficient to unfit the bike for
real. lively polo. An upset to a pony
seldom means more than the most
trif1ing damage, while the conse-
quences are apt to be disastrous to a
wheel.
The difficulty of finding suitable
grounds, and the natural objection of
good wheelmen to risking their necks
and wheels in such a doubtful pas
time, will effectually prevent polo on
wheels from becoming one of our pop
ular amusements. The reckless west
erner may carry out his threat of
coursing antelope and jack-rabbit over
the plains upon wheels. but the polo
pony will have no cause to fear the
rivalry of the pneumatic.

TWO GUILELEss FARMERS.
They Sell Bogus Chicl<amagua Rel
les to Northern Visitors.

A war relic that has been fondly cher
ished by Walter H. Durfee, of this city,
says the Providence Journal, turns out to
be a. fraud. Mr.. Durfee has discovered
that his supposed memento of the battle
OF Chickamauga is a common everyday
sort of an oak tree, which, even if it was
standing so long ago as the time of the
war, may never have been under fire. He
is certain that the choice selection of rifle
balls, solid shot and fragments of shells
that are imbedded in the old trunk were
inserted there by some skillful worker in
wood.
The tree which is live oak. is about
twenty feet long and is stripped of its
branches. In various positions through
out its length there are twenty-five rife
balls, two pieces of solid shot and twelve
fragments of shells. 1t was purchased of
two old farmers in Chattanooga last De-
cember by a friend of Mr.. Durfee and
shipped TO this city. The farmers very
well as several other specimens they had,
from position in the vicinity of the IA
nous battlefield.
The two men did a comparatively ex-
tensive business. Mr.. Durfee accidentally
made a discovery while repairing the bro
ken top of his tree Saturday. He intend
ed boring a hole lengthwise in the trunk
and inserting an iron rod to fasten on the
broken piece. He CHANGED to loosen one
of the rifle balls and looking into the
opening that was left, the whole story
was revealed. The hole was perfectly cut
with an auger and the small hole made
able. Further investigation showed that
the solid shot were also inserted in holes
carefully cut out. The other rifle
balls were removed with a similar result.
The man who did the work was an art
ist. Places were chosen for the insertion
of the solid shot and shell where the bark
had been broken and had subsequently
grown partially over the place, SO that
when the ball or shell was inserted the
appearance gave the impression that a
rlyryrh nf Vaa zTr~ cd he &11
Pieces of bark had also been ground and
broken and inserted in the fine chinks to
increase the ancient appearance. The
work shown in fixing up the tree must
have required g man over week to ac-
complish, and in the result one may be
excused for Icing deceived.
