Svefon,

TACOMA, WASH. July 3.-Tacoma,
Seattle or San Francisco will be the ter
minus of line of steamers to the United
States, TO be started in few months by
the Nippon Yusen Kaisha.
.. Iwanga, manager of the steamship
line, Lawyer Manu- Jina, its chief counsel,
and Mr.. Kafuka, their private secretary,
arrived this afternoon and after viewing
harbor facilities here departed tonight for
Portland.
They are accompanied by Vice-Presi-
dent FINLEY of the Great Northern Rail-
way, which will work hard to have the
steamship line connect with that road at
Belllngham Bay or Seattle. From Port
land the gentlemen go 10 St. Paul to con-
Ter with President j. J. Hill, and later
they expect to visit San Francisco.
There is a possibility that the line will
go to California, though it seems proba BILE
Puget Sound will be selected as the ter
minus. As nearly as can be learned the
Northern Pacific people have as yet had
no negotiations with the steamship COM
pany.
The latter has stated that freight is what
IL wants, and that the terminus will go to
the city that can furnish the most busi-
ness. They expect to start the line with
one steamship per month before the year
ENDS, and to increase the mum Der of boats
as fast as the business will warrant.

TRACK.LAYERs AT LA GRANGE
Working Away From the San Joaquin
at the Rate of a Mile and
Half Day.

FRESNO, CAL, July 81. T. Williams
arrived in this city this evening with i'm
portant news regarding the progress of
work on the San Joaquin Valley Railway.
Grading from the north to the San Juan
River has been nearly completed, and a
camp of fifty teams crossed the river to-
day. Track-Iaying will be completed to
the river by July 25, when the bridge will
have been finished.
The ontract for grading from the river
10 this city has been let to Grant Brothers
and J. D. McDougald, and they will place
$50 teams at work next week, in addition
to the fifty teams which were moved across
the river to-day.
Dirt will soon be flying, and the graders
will reach this city by August ]. The
track-layers will follow closely, and the
rails will undoubtedly all be laid by Au-
gust Is, the date for the completion of the
line, as promised Fresnoans by the direct
ors.
Williams reports everything going
smoothly to the city limits of Fresno.
The work is progressing fully as well as
could be expected. The bridge over the
San Joaquin has been going up without
hitch. 1rack-laying is proceeding at the
rate of mile and a half a day, the force
being now at La Grange, in Merced
County. 1t is not the intention to con-
tlnue grading along Diana and @ streets
through this city until the trouble with
the property-owners along those streets is
settled. The railroad company desires to
have all strife ended before proceeding
with the work. 1t is hoped that the diff
ferences will have been arranged by the
middle of August, so that work may not

SAN JOSE DAMAGE SUIT.
Corwin c. Ingels Brings Action
for $4,000 Against the
Southern Pacific.
Sustained Injuries in the Santa Clara
Wreck Which Made Him an
Invalid for Life.

SAN JOSE, CAL, July 3.-Corwin G..
Ingels. farmer near Gilroy. began suit
in the Superior Court to-day against the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company for
$4,000 damages for injuries received in the
collision between the broad and narrow
gauge passenger trains at Santa Clara on
January % last.
Ingels was a passenger on the broad
gauge train running between San Fran
cisco and this city. He alleges that III the
collision he received such injuries to his
spinal column as to wholly incapacitate
him from attending to his business.
He alleges he will suffer great physical
and mental pain the balance of his life,
and lose all the pleasure and enjoyment
of living.
Ingels was confined to his bed for
twenty-one weeks and incurred an indebt-
edness of $3.50 for medical and surgical
treatment, restitution for which he also
asks, making total of SIS, $50. The COL
lision is attributed 10 negligence on the

.DUNHAM OR HIS SHADOW
Photographs of a North Dakota
Captive Sent to San
Jose Officers.
Detective Bells Confident That He
Has Caught the Campbel;s
Butcher.

SAN JOSE, CAL, July 3.-Sberiff Lyn-
don to-day received from George Bells,
a detective of Fargo, n. D., two pictures
of man giving the name of George Dali
ton, whom Bells arrested about a week
ago on suspicion of being James q. Dun
ham, the Campbells murderer. About a
week ago Sheriff Lyndon received tele-
gram from Bells saying that he had Dun
ham and asking that man be sent to
Fargo to identify him. Bells is sure he
has Dunham, as the mans appearance
tallies exactly with the printed descrip-
tions of the murderer sent out. Word
was sent to Bells to forward two pictures
of the suspect.
The pictures arrived to-day, but there is
considerable doubt as to whether the right
man has been captured. The face and
figure bear strong resemblance to Dun
ham but not enough to warrant belief
that il is him. A number of people who
were well acquainted with the murderer
are inclined TO think that the suspect is
Dunham, despite the changed appearance.
The picture was shown to Major Hin
man, who is an acknowledged authority
on criminology. He remarked at once that
the resemblance to Dunham was striking
and believed that it would be advisable to
send man to Fargo to ascertain if the
fugitive murderer is in custody at that
place. In his opinion a man personally
acquainted with Dunham should be sent
on that errand.
The general opinion of those who have
seen the picture, however, is that the case
is one of mistaken identity, and that the
Fargo man is not the Campbells butcher.
The officials have not decided what course
they will pursue in the matter.
Before his arrest Dalton stopped at the
Elliott House in Fargo, where his queer
actions attracted attention. After staying
several days he rented a wheel to 60 to
Moorhead, where he was subsequently
arrested and taken back to Fargo.

The officer was polite but firm in refusal.

the line except at stated intervals for the

WAS very urgent, he answered that in
five minutes, when the cars would be
permitted to pass, he would be given
leave TO fall in behind them if he would

j. a. Filcher from the State Board OF
Trade addressed the committee, asking an
appropriation under the law authorizing
counties to appropriate money TO promote
immigration. He read from the county
government act the authorization for
counties of the trst-class 10 allow $500 q
year for immigration purposes. Mr..
Filcher said as an additional reason why
San Francisco should join other counties
In the work of bringing new settlers TO
the State was the fact that the Board OF
Trade was located in this City. He said:
1--WE propose to get small amount from
every county in the State. We should
like 70 make an exhibit at Boston and
Omaha similar TO the display we made at
Atlanta. We won seventy-fve medals for
our State exhibit at Atlanta"
Mr.. Filcher said that twenty-Seven
counties we're now contributing to the
fund. He did not ask for he full amount
which the law authorized the board to
appropriate, but did suggest that $50 a
month should be voted by San Francisco
to help sustain the Board of Trade.
The application will receive further con-
sideration before the estimates are adopted.
