WADE HAMPTON.
The Southern Soldier and Statesman
Was Here on Business.

General Wade Hampton, United
States Commissioner of Railroads, ac-
companied by c. E. Thomas, book
keeper for the United States Railway
Bureau, and Captain R. Lowndes, ar
rived in the city at 4 p. IN. yesterday
The party was in charge of w. G. Cur
tbs. Assistant General Manager of the
Southern Pacific Company.
The special palace car bearing the
distinguished visitors was sidetracked
west of the depot for several hours, CIV
ing the Commissioner several hours to
inspect the surroundings.
To a "Record-Union" reporter Gen
eral Hampton expressed satisfaction at
what he had seen, but his visit had
been limited to only a small part of the
railroad system. So far as he had tray
eled over it a marked Improvement had
been noticed in the roadbed since his
visit of year ago. He could not but
notice also the excellent condition Of
the rolling stock.
California is indeed" he said "a
wonderful place, and railroading here
is quite a different thing from what it
is in the East"
The General expressed satisfaction
that he had escaped the death-dealing
portion of the hot wave now sweeping
over the East, striking down and pros
trating hundreds. He himself, he said,
was suffering from indisposition when
he left, and he had found the mild
weather and cool nights on this coast
very invigorating. Everyone knew of
the terrors of cyclones, but not mention
ing fatalities, the suffering from such
terrible heat, especially in large cities,
would never be known. Such weather
as Californians are enjoying was a
blessing.
When approached on politics the ven-
cradle General shook his head and held
up warning finger. "Ah." said he,

THE TRAIN-WRECKERS
Detective BrisseIl Returns After
Landing the Culprits.

Detective William Brissell has re-
turned from Reno, New, where he has
Tor the past week been engaged in run
ming down and securing evidence
against the two men alleged to have
twice attempted to wreck Central Pa
cific trains within sight of the town Of
Reno.
Mr.. Brissell says he had no trouble in
locating the men, and that their cap
ture was made within few hours after
taking UP the trail. When captured
they innocently tried to spring the old
dodge that they were too drunk to re-
member anything that took place.
They were arraigned in a Justice
court in Reno and bound over to an
swer before the Superior Court, bonds
being fixed at $1,000 in each case.
Mr.. Brissell considers that he has
sufficient evidence against the men to
insure conviction.

From this beginning the Easements and

with a colony of cats. They were as wild
