OBSTR UCTED THE TRACK.
An Arizoman Resemts the Intrusion of q
Railroad.

An ArizOnan Resents the Intrusion of a
Railroad.
SoLoMoNyILLE, Ariz., Jan. 29.-P. Sulli-
van, who owns land seven miles below this
place, created a sensation yesterday. He
claims that the ella Valley, Globe and
Northern Railroad built their track through
his land last summer, when he was away,
without permission. Sunday he built a
frame building on the railroad track.
When the train came yesterday he and his
family were there. A wire fence had been
put across the track twenty feet from the
new house. When William Garland, presi-
dent of the railroad company, who was on
the train, attempted to take down the wire
fence, Sullivan leveled shotgun at him,
and ordered the president to keep his
hands off, which he did. The train re-
turned here, when q warrant was procured
for Sullivan's arrest from Justice Parks.
Sullivan was brought here and held for trial
Wednesday.
1t remains to be seen whether Sullivan
will again try to stop the train. District
Attorney Jones says he will clear away the
track and arrest all the parties giving re-
sistance. No one here ever heard of case
of this kind before. Sullivan came here re-
Gently from California, and is the agentfor

ANXIOUS FOR THE NEW ROAD.
M0destdns Favor the Great San Joaquin
Fallen Project.

PUGtSD IfOJSCt'
MODESTO, Jan. 29.-Modestans, without
exception, are heartily in favor of the pr o
posed railroad through the San Joaquin
Valley, and are iubilant over the promised
completion of the road, which will give
them relief from the present extortionate
freight rates. For the past three years,
during high water in Tuolumne River, a
steamer from Stockton has brought large
amount of freight to this section at greatly
reduced rates, as temporary relief.
At a special meeting of the Board of
Trustees held to-day the proposition was
heartily approved, and resolution adopted
unanimously favoring such road and
guaranteeing ground for depot site,
should the road pass through Modesto.
Wealthy citizens stand ready and willing
to subscribe literally to bonds for the pur-
pose.
The valley at this point is fifty miles
wide and very productive. Freight rates
have always been a drawback to its pros
perity. The men at the head of the enter
prise and their liberal subscriptions are
the first real belief and hope residents here
have had that the road would be built in
the near future.

The Native Sons Are Preparing for a
Grand Time.
Governor Budd and staff will attend the
celebration of the laying of the corner
stone for the Native Sons building in this
city on the 22d prox. A committee con-
sisting of Grand President Sproul and
Grand Secretary Lunstedt waited on the
Governor yesterday and presented him
with an invitation to attend the ceremon-
les. He Immediately assented to the pro-
position and accepted the invitation. A
concurrent resolution will be introduced in
the Legislature for adjournment over the
I'D of February, so that as many of the
legislators as desire to do SO may have an
opportunity to come to San Francisco and
be present during the ceremonies.
The Hall Association of the Native Sons
met in Pioneer Hall last night and per-
fected the arrangements for the corner
stone ceremonies so far as its authority
goes. 1t was reported to the association
that at meeting of the grand officers
some important steps had been taken in
the matter of the new building. 1t had
been decided that Grand Marshal Homer
Prindle OF San Jose shall take charge of
the procession. Hon. Eugene Bert, grand
orator, will deliver the cornerstone ora
ton. All the grand officers will be present.
Grand President Sproul has appointed
committee to revise the ceremony through
out and make it entirely new and applica-
bic to California history.

REMAINS BEHIND BARS.
The MGtson Woman 4scdSts Money to Pay
Her Debte.


SAN JOSE, Jan. 29-Louisa E. B. Matson,
the woman who for fifteen years masque-
raded as man, is still in the county jail
here waiting for the British Bank of North
America to cash her check, when she hopes
to be able to settle with her creditors and
be allowed to depart.
The order on the bank was given to one
of the local banks for collection, but the
money has not yet been received by her.
AS soon as the money arrives it will be
paid to Justice of the Peace Beggs, who will
use it to indemnify all losers by Matson' S
crookedness. She will in all probability be
taken to Los Gatos tomorrow for arraign-
ment, when, on motion of the District At
torney, the charges against her will be dis
missed.
Since the discovery of the fact that she
is woman there has been a strong disin
clination on the part of the losers to prose
cute, and, as it appears that she really has
a remittance whereby she would be able te
meet her obligations, her offenses appear
less serious than at first.

THEIR HAPPINESS BRIEF.
Lillian Denicke Wants Divorce on IL
Ground of CraseItg.

Lillian DenicIse Wants Divorce on the
Ground of Cruelty.
FRESNO, Jan. ga suit was filed in the
Superior Court yesterday by Lillian Dem
icke against her husband, Martin Denicke,
for a divorce. A sealed complaint was
filed, but it is known that the action is
brought on the ground of cruelty. Mr..
and Mrs. Denicke were married in San
Francisco about seven months ago, and
their brief welded life has not been noted
for its felicity. Several unpleasant cpl
sodes have occurred and a separation was
expected some time ago. Denicke is an
old resident of the county and promi-
nent horticulturist. He is about 60 years
of age, while his wife is about 25 and is a
cousin of George H. Matter, the we'll
known vineyardist and political farmer.

WILCOX SAID TO BIZ HERE.
Queen LiliuOkaIani's FaVOrite May
Have Landed.
The Local ROyalistic Colony Hope He Is
in This City and Safe From
His Enemies.

The adherents of the Hawaiian royalistic
quite little colony in this city, were on
the qui vive yesterday over rumor to the
effect that R. w. Wilcox, the royalistic
leader and confdant of Queen Liliuoka-
lani, had arrived in this city. The majority
of the friends as well as the foes of Will
cox admitted that it was not at all i'm
probable that this man, above all, should
seek a safe refuge on American soil.
The friends of the present Government
shook their heads knowingly and said
when seen that they believed Wilcox
dead man twenty-four hours after the Ala
media the last steamer from the Islands to
this port, had left Honolulu.
Royalist enthusiasts, however, told how
Wilcox may have managed to escape his
enemies on the islands and reach here
safely.
The theory they had to advance was that
few days ago q mysterious schooner was
seen in Monterey Bay, bound northwest.
She was supposed to be the notorious
South Bend, owned by the smuggling firm
of Brown & Reagan.
1t was the South Bend which is sus-
pected to have landed the arms which
caused the latest outbreak OF the royaliIsts
at Honolulu, and if Wilcox is here his
friends claim that this schooner is the
. vessel that brought him across the sea and
landed him somewhere on the coast.
The only puzzling question is why
Wilcox should come here in a secret way
and why he should avoid being seen by
any one. The explanation of this is that
he fears extradition.
A strong bit of evidence of Wilcox pres
ence in the city rests in a visiting-card
bearing his name. This was found by w.
H. Cromwell, a Hawaiian, thrust under
hs room door in local hotel, yesterday.
The card bears the name "Robert w. Will
cox" with the simple address, Homo

WHITTIER MORMONs JOURNEY.
Their Meccn One of the Historic Spots
of knmsns.


of kaHsu
During the past two months hundreds Of
Mormons residing near Independence, Mo-,
Nauvoo, H., and in Lee county, Ia, have
been making their annual pilgrimage to the
old Mormon crossing Of the Big Blue river
in Marshall county. Near this historic spot
are the Above springs, where so many OF
their people were massacred by the Indians
in 1916 as they were making their way
across the Great American desert to Salt
Lake. They have been visiting the old
crossing in small numbers since the lst of
September, crossing the Big Blue where
their forefathers d!l, and resting a few days
near the springs, where religious services
were regularly held in commemoration of
the early pioneers who braved the dangers
and opened the way to the new Mormon
settlement at Great Salt Lake.
The cid Mormon or Independence"
crossing Of the Big Blue is one of the most
historic spots in Kansas, says the st. Louis
Republic. 1t has been visited by thousands
Of Mormons since the days of 1916, and the
people who now live in the vicinity look
forward to the pilgrimage of these people
every year as one OF the incidents of spe-
clal note in Marshall county. 1t is the most
beautiful and romantic spot in all Kansas.
The Big Blue river Is a stream as clear as
crystal, and the Above springs are located
In a sequestered nook, which seems to have
been made by nature for such gatherings as
these.
When the first immigrant trains carrying
the Mormon people and their belongings 10
the Great Salt Lake crossed the Big Blue
at this now historic spot there was
scarcely a vestige of civilization In that
region of country, For ages its prairies
had been covered with a waving sea Of wild
grasses; vast herds Of buffalo had for num-
berless years wandered almost unmolested
across them. Nothing disturbed it's solitude
gave an occasional band of nomadIc Indians
In search Of prey or plumber. and the hardy
frontiersman who is always found far in ad-
vance OF civilization. As early as 1920
Major Stephen II. Long crossed that part of
Kansas now known as Marshall county In
command of an expedition from Pittsburg
to the Rocky mountains. General Fremont
en- his expedition to the Rocky mountains in
passed through that section of the
state and mentions in his travels several i'm
wagons enroute to Oregon.
1t was in 1874 that John Smith, the Nor
mon apostle, with his band Of followers
from Illinois, opened his way through this
crossing the Big Blue river at the
old Mormon Independence" or Cali
fornia" crossing. This was six miles below
seat OF Marshall county, For two years the
Latter-Day Saints passed over the
trail that led TO this crossing of the Big Blue
river. At one time o Mormon eamping party
surrounded by Indians at this famous
spot and all were killed. Among the party
were several elders Of the Mormon faith
who were going to the western home TO look
after the spiritual welfare Of the pionsers !
who had gone before. Ever since the Nor
of Missouri, Illinois and Iowa have
made annual pllgr.mages to Above springs.
