San Francisco, Jan. 13.-The activity
Of TIE Southern Pacific people in building
several branch lines near Los Angeles as
means of fortifying themselves against
the competition of the Santa Fe has led
the latter corp oration to fight back with
the same kind of weapons. It was the
talk here yesterday in railroad circles
that the Santa Fe's new management had
decided to build Immediately an import
ant branch line some fifty-seven miles
long in the southern part of the state.
II is to run from Elsimore by way of
Pomona to Azusa, and then there will be
branch from Pomona to Lordsburg.
This latter branch will be about four
miles long. It is to be known as the
Elsimore, Pomona and Los Angeles Rail-
way company.
The recent report that the Santa Fe
owns the California Eastern road ls not
generally believed here. This is the line
sold not long ago by decree OF the
courts under the name of the Nevada

IngersolI, the Atheist, Lauded
by the Church People.
Expresses a Desire to Join the
Peoples Church
AT KALAMAZOO, MICH.
Christian EndeavOr Prayers
Seem to Have Worked.
The Peoples Church" Has No
Greed.

KALAMAZOO, Mich., Jan. 13.-Robert
G.. Ingersoll, during bis lecture on "Lin-
coin" here Saturday night, created a
sensation. In the middle of his dis
course he stopped and told his audience
that he desired to relate the incidents of
the afternoon. Then he spoke of his
visit to the Peoples church, and said:
''It is the grandest thing in your state,
If not in the whole United States, If
there were a similar church near my
home I would join it. if its members
would permit me-"
Nothing in his whole lecture caused
such stir as this, and when some of his
friends escorted him to the hotel they
asked him if he was in earnest about the
statement and he is said to have replied
that he was very much in earnest, and If
opportunity ever was given him of join
ing such a church he would seize is
quickly.
1t now seems that when the colonel ar
rived in Kalamazoo he was taken to visit
the Peoples church, of which Miss Caro-
line ]. Bartlett is the pastor. This church
was rendered possible by the liberality Of
Silas Hubbard, who bequeathed it large
sum of money. 1t is institutional in its
plan, and is built more like a home than
an ordinary church. 1t has reception
rooms and social gatherings, libraries,
rooms for sleeping, a dining room, a
kitchen and equipments of this kind. 1t
is utterly undenominational, and has NO
creed whatever
Col Ingersoll was conducted through
the various departments and was Fnore
than pleased while at the church. butt no-
body supposed that he would mention it
in his discourse.
The prominent members of the Church
are enthusiastic tonight and say they be-
lieve that through the Peoples church of
kalamazoo the great agnostic will be led
to join the church. They say they see
in his words the answer TO the thousands
of prayersssent up by the Christian Ea-
deavor members all over the country.
They say htat while no organized effcrs
has been made to get Col. Ingersoll to
join the church, yet such. effort will be
made in the near future. They also pro-
fess to believe tnat tie great disciple of
agnosticism will deliver no more agnos-
tic lectures

ion is nom political, non partisan and
non sectional, and has for its aim the
general good of the manufacturers and
the development of some plan through
legislative channels, or otherwise, by
which trade relations between the United
States and foreign countries may be de-
veloped aud extended. It also desires to
perfect some plan by which agencies may
be established in such countries as
America republics to enter into competi-
ton with products of European manu-
facture which now have practical control
of these markets.
Charles Locke, a New York official of
the association, said: American manu-
facturers are left out in the
cold in foreign markets. Eng
land for instance has national board
of trade, controlled by the government,
which last year expended the equivalent
of a million dollars in the maintenance
of commercial agencies in all the i'm
portant markets of the world to facili-
tate the Introduction of English goods.
It has salaried agents in this country
privately inspecting our factories, and
making exhaustive reports to the home
Office. The government fosters the in
PRODUCTION aud improvement of English
manufacturers in all ways.
"The American manufacturers have
now come to think that in as much as
they receive no support from their own
government, they must do something for
themselves if they would hold their own
in the markets of the world. At these
meetings some plan will undoubtedly be
perfected by which we can place our
agents along side of those of England,
Germany and other foreign countries"

NEW SHEPIFF GOES IN

And Samuel Kerr of ROssvilIe is Ap-
pointed Deputy sheriff.
There was a house warming at the
court house this morning. 1t was JClli-
fication, ratification, and performance
of duty to those who were going in and
those who were going out of office.
During the early part of the forenoon
the two rooms used by the Shawnee
county sheriff were filled with
politicians aud tobacco smoke.
The latter was SO thick that
collisions between those walking around
were frequent. 1t was all because ex-
Sheriff Dave Burdge had bought box
of cigars for his friends and foes, that
they might sprinkle the ashes upon his
tomb-for the time being.
J Sheriff KepIey's full face looked
rounder and fuller and happier than
usual.
Sam Kerr was the only one of the new
force who settled down TO business at the
start. He began writing out papers in a
lowing hand under the direction of Otis
Hungate, kepley's legal adviser.
The whole party later went to the
county Jail where the papers and pris-
oners were turned over to the new sheriff.
The Jail birds woke up the neighbor-
hood last night, cheering and yelling for
KepIey; though there is no particular
reason why they should.
day appointed deputy sheriff by Sheriff
Bob kepley. He will do nothing but Of
fee work. This is a new departure in
the sheriff's office.
Kerr is a Democrat, who was formerly
county commissioner. Kepley says the
appointment is one of his own choice and
not Influenced by party demands.
81 deem it but justice to the bar and to
the court to have one man especially for
office work." said Mr.. Kepley today.

"What will there be for Under Sheriff

LONDON. Jan. 15.-Emperor Villa ms
message to President Krueger of the
Transvaal came at just the right time to
give the British ministers an excuse for
making preparations really intended to
back their new policy, which will end
the Armenian horrors and bring the sui
tan to his senses.
The most astounding news today is
that a question of the greatest moment
to Europe was decided at the cabinet
meeting of Saturday.
There is to be an entirely new arrange
ment of the European chess board. The
Westminster Gazette publishes a leading
special pretending to divulge the chief
subject under discussion at the meeting,
though all England is aware no meetings
on earth are more impenetrably secret
Cabinet mem bers take oath to speak
no word about their deliberations in coun-
Gil or of the subjects discussed. The So
lemnity of this pledge, such as it is, is
beyond reason to break.
However, it is reported that the chief
subject discussed was the governments
efforts to bring about a rapprochement
between Russia, France and England for
the formation of an alliance to control
the peace of Europe The article inti-
mates that the sole obstacle in the way of
been the knowledge that England would
oppose Russia's absorption of Armenia.
Russia put out feelers at the beginning of
the Armenian troubles to see if she could
assume protectorate over that unhappy
province, and it is said that Germany
was found to be opposed.
1t is understood now that Great Britain
withdraws her objection and expresses
her satisfaction over the promise of the
restoration of good order in Armenia,
and heartily welcomes the Russian
proposition. OF course, this abandon
ment of her old position as the cham
pion of Turkey is the sop Great Britain
offers for an anti-German alliance with
Russia.
This means that Russia will eventu-
ally take Constantinople.
The latest rumor points to a land inva-
sion by Russia and joint naval demon
stra:ion at Constantiuople by Great
Britain and France.
The Manchester Guardian, comment
ing on the British naval preparations,
says that considerable credence is at
tached to the story that the flying squad
ron which is to assemble at Portland
early this week is more likely TO go to
the DardanelIes than to Delagoa bay.

(Rep., Mass) presented the following
resolution for reference to the committee
on foreign affairs:
"Whereas, the most mournful tragedy
of the nineteenth century has been and
is now being enacted, under the appar-
ent sanction of the Sultan of Turkey
by which hundreds of thousands of
Armenians are being ruthlessly slaugh-
tered in cold blood, women are being
driven into captivity worse than death.
"Resolved, That the committee on
foreign affairs consider the expediency of
reporting forthwith some expression
by this government in denunciation
of these atrocities and that we invoke the
cooperation of the allied powers to wipe
the Turkish government off the face of
the earth and secure the freedom and
independence of Armenia"

Judge HaZen Raps the Lawyers for
Their Reams OEl Reams of DepOsi-
tiOns.
District Judge Hazan was in a sarcas-
tic mood this morning on the opening g
day of the January term of court. He
scored the lawyers right and left in de-
Gliding some cases and motions which he
had under advisement
The most interesting case was that of
Ben Henderson, ex-Populist leader,
against ex-State Printer Ed II. Snow for
libel There were objections to parts of
the IL or 10 dispositions to be used in the
case when it comes to trial, and in speak
ing oft Judge Hazen took occasion to
score the attorneys on this way of TAX
ing depositions.
q have read these dispositions
through" began the judge holding up
type written copy two or three inches
thick, land 1 failed to find anything in
them. 1t seems that all the attorneys
asked each witness, was his name, age
and occupation. This was worked over
and padded and wadded until we have
here this remarkab BILE pile of manuscript
without anything to it.
Henderson sued Snow for $4,000 for
libel in the latter's Ottawa Journal.
"There is u motion to strike out a par
agragh in the petition of William II.
Blackburn against the Home Insurance
company OF New crk' said the district
Judge in one case. 81 want to say right
now that this case has caused me more
trouble than any other one action which
l have had before me since l have been
judge This is the third amended and
substituted petition which they are
9uarreling abont now. l overrule this
motion. don't know which
is the right way to decide it, but l over
rule it and see what comes of it. Ihave
my mind which way to decide. and then
aftervard I would get to thinking abont
it and think just the other way I'm
not going to bother with it any more
