Run CUT OF CABS.
Nebraska Roads Unable to Handle
Their Immense Grain and Coal
Traffic in the Fast.

OMAHA, NEBR., July 27.-In the forty
eight hours ending this morning the Bur
lington road hauled S13 cars of grain
through this city bound East, and other
roads hauled 1900 cars. This grain move
ment, together with the immense amount
of coal called for from Western mines,
threatens car famine.
All the shops of the entire Burlington
system began this morning to work on
full time, ten hours a day, which indi-
cates that the road expects permanent
increase in its business. Other roads in
the West have also started their shops on
full time for this reason.
A week ago wheat was started to
market from Nebraska. Since then it has
been pouring n from ten thousand wheat
fields, blocking other kinds OF traffic in a
large measure. The rush 10 market
would be worse but thrashers are not to
be had.
What makes the situation worse is that
some OF last years corn is just beginning
to move, having been hela until the
present time so that farmers might be GER
tain of having plenty this year. Since
begun to release that part of the old crop
held over, estimated at 200, 600 bushels.
The demand for grain cars exceeds all
hopes of the railroad men, All foreign
cars in the State have been seized by the
Nebraska line for the grain carrying
trade, in many cases in direct violation of
contracts with other lines. They think
the urgency of the occasion justifies the
proceedings.
Then the coal-carrying capacity of the
Western road is being taxed to lis utmost.
Coal can be carried in many cars rejected
Tor grain carrying purposes, and this helps
the situation. Every pound OF coal mined
in Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and
Wyoming is being hurried to the East.
Many long freights, with two engines to
each, are hurrying across Nebraska within
sight of each other on the same track.
Orders are to force all Chicago and New
York grain cars to empty and return the
cars forty -eight hours alter receipt.
II they are not emptied in hat time by
the owners of the grain the railroad crews
are ordered to dump the grain into any
available space and send the cars back
forthwith.
The situation is unparalleled in the
West. What is true OF Nebraska is true OF
Iowa, Kansas and Missourj.

DUNHAM LOCATED AGAIN.
This Time the informant Has Seen
the Campbell Fugitive in a
Foreiqn City.

SAN JOSE, CAL, July 2h-James @.
Dunham, the murderer of the McGlincy
family, has bsen located again.
This time he is engaged in business
across the sea, but the bearer OF the
information refuses to divulge the fu-
gitive's whereabouts unless he is as
sured that the Sl1, 900 reward will be forth
coming. This news was brought to the
City last night by man giving the name
OF A. M. Stoddard and his residence at
4lS Eleventh street, Oakland.
On his arrival here he sought out Chief
OF Police Kidward and for time was
closeted with that official. He said q
friend who was an engineer on an ocean
steamer now in port in San Francisco had
seen Dunham in foreign port. The en-
gineer knew Dunham before the crime
was committed and had positively ldenti-
he'd the sextuple murderer. He said Dun
ham was engaged in business and doing
we'll.
Stoddard refused to give the name of
the engineer or the name OF the ship he
was on, or 10 tell where the murderer had
been seen. HI said that he would require
$1,000 OF the reward before giving the In
formation, and the balance of $40 600 m ust
be placed In reliable hands, to be paid In
case the man proved to be Dunham.
Chief Kidward gives little credence to
the story. and believes the man to be q
crank. He refused to investigate unless
given more information. This Stoddard
declined 10 give, but said he would con-
suit his friend, and if the latter consented
he would part all his information.

ERGLAKD'S LATEST SCOOP.
Her Seizure of the Island of Palmyra
Is Officially reported to the
State Department

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 27.-"The
Island of Palmyra has been occupied by
Great Britain" Such is the substance Of
telegram received at the State Depart
ment to-day from Minister to Hawaii
Sewell.
Palmyra lies about 1000 miles southwest
OF the Hawaiian group. 1t was at one
time the seat of operations of an American
guano company, and was annexed by it
by virtue of general law OF Congress
authorizing any Americans to annex
islands were guano deposlts were dis
covered and worked by them.
Under this law many islands were an
nexed by Americans, who removed the
guano deposits and then abandoned them.
Among them was Palmyra. After it was
abandoned by the Americans it was an
nexed by the Hawaiian Government. 1t
was considered a part OF the Hawaiian
kingdom and is now claimed by the
hawaiian republic.
The British now claim that it was dis
covered by Captain Cook and belongs to
Great Britain. 1t is not known what the
purpose OF the English is, but it is sur
missed that they want it for coaing sta
ton, and perhaps for a strategic point, in
view OF any, trouble over the annexation
OF Hawaii by the United States.
The dispatch sent by Minister Sewell
was discussed at the Cabinet meeting to-
night, and The CALL correspondent was
told that this was the real reason for call

The Slayer Of Pretty
Gregoria Rodriguez
Convicted.
Wrecked the Life of the Girl
and Then Stabbed Her
to Death.
Justice to Be Done for Brutal
Crime at Congress Mining
Camp.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, July 27.-The trial
of the case os the People VS.. Manuel
Chavez, charged with murder, was brought
to close to-day, the jury bringing in a
verdict of guilty. The wording of the
verdict is as follows:
1--WE, the jury in the above-entitled
case, find the defendant, Manuel Chavez,
guilty of murder in the first degree. as
charged in the information, and in our
Judgment the death penalty should be in
ficted."
Chavez will be sentenced on Friday by
Judge Torrance. The crime for which he
has just been convicted was most brutal
one. His victim, Gregoria Rodriguez,
was beautiful Mexican girl born and
reared in the mining camp of Senator, on
the Colorado River, seventy five miles
above Yuma. About year ago she met
Chavez, who betrayed her on promise of
marriage and afterward induced her to
live with him.
Last April she broke away from his in
fuence and went to live at the home of
Senior Refugio YneZ, wel-known and
respectable Spanish family of the camp.
Chavez followed with threats and
entreaties, and finally, n May A. when
Senior Ynez was away at work in the
mines, he came to the house and attacked
the poor girl with a large knife. Mrs.
YneZ sprang to Gregoria's defense, but
Chavez threw her off and stabbed his vic
tim three times in the body. She died al
most instantly. Chavez escaped, but was
soon captured.

BAD FOR S0EoMA 0RcHARDS7S
Failing to Get Far Prices for Their
Fruit, They WH Dry tie
EDfirs cron

HEALDsBURG, CAL. July 27.-The
orchardists of this district say they will
get S15 ton for their freestone peaches
from the local canneries or else they will
dry their entire crop of all kinds of fruit.
The Gamers say, 1--WE do not want free
stone peaches at any price, but we are
willing to pay a reasonable figure for
clings."
At a meeting OF the Farmers Club
on Saturday the fruit business was
thoroughly discussed, and a majority of
the orchardists in the Russian River, Dry
Creek and Geyssrville districts signed an
agreement not to accept less than SIS a
ton.
The canneries here are now running
heavily, and, strange as it may seem. but
a small portion of The fruit being put into
tin comes from this section. Black berries
from Analy township, pears from the
Sacramento Valley and peaches from
1000 busy workers, while the fruit that
weighs down the orch ards here is ripening
and growers are preparing to start up
their driers.
"Orchardists are in bad way" said
George Slocum, a prominent frutt-grow-
er. 1.-THE best offer | could get at local
canneries this season for my Crawford
all that is being paid for Muirs. These
prices mean bankruptcy, and prefer to
dry rather than accept them"
"The trouble is mply this" said J, r.
Miller, manager of the Russian River
cannery. ave do not want freestone
peaches at any price, for the simple reason
that the canneo-goods trade does not call
for them. Now and then we do take a
few tons of Crawfords or Muirs, simply
10 secure the clings owned by an orchard
ist. Canneries throughout the State are
offering all that the market will stand for
clings, while the other varieties are drug
on the market. We cannot afford to pay
the price set on peaches here much as we
would like to, and we will have no diff
Guilty in procuring all we require at better
prices"
Owing to the heavy crop it will be neces-
sary to operate all the driers up this way.
For the past ten days the weather has
been unfavorable for drying.

Mazdma Mountain Climbers Reach
tho Summit and Signal to
Tacoma.

TACOMA, WASH July 27.-The Maza-
mas have kept their word, for tonight
they Illuminated the top of Mount
visible in Tacoma, siXty-fve miles dis
tant.
Nearly twenty of the party OF seventy
five Mazamas which left for the mountain
last week intended to make the ascent,
and they succeeded. News came to-day
that rain fell in Paradise Valley on Fri
day and Saturday, but rising barometer
was believed to indicate good elm bing
weather to-day.
In that event, the message stated, the
red fire, of which fifty pounds was taken
along, would be lighted at P. NJ. on the
summit.
Hundreds of people were expectantly
watching the mountain tonight at that
hour.
Powerful glasses failed to detect any
lights. At 9:30 o'clock the watchers on
the Tacoma Hotel veranda shouted
There it isl" and 300 people rushed out
from The lobbies.
The blaze appeared as ball OF led fire
as large as the sun at sunset. On the
mountain it was undoubtedly as high as
house. Three lights, supposedly those OF
camp bonfires, were seen on the mountain
side toward Paradise Valley.
Hundreds of people watching from resi-
dences also saw the red lights.
The party which climbed yesterday
and to-day to a height of over 5000
feet, included President Pittock of
the Mazamas, Colonel G. P. Ferry and
Miss Fay Fuller OF Tacoma, Henry Gam
nett, geographer OF the geological survey,
and Professor Newell secretary of the

The CALL related some time ago the
story OF how Michael failed in his attempt
to secure Hanna's influence, but the Ohio
Senator would have none OF the late di-
rector-general, and said very plainly that
from what he observed of Michael at the
ST. Louis convention the Californian was
not suited for the position OF commits
sloner 10 the Paris exposition, which re-
quired the services OF one accustomed to
diplomatic usages. Nevertheless Mr.. de
Young persisted in his candidacy, all to
no purpose, however, for Moses p, Handy
was to-day appointed to the position. he
was the promoter OF publicity at the Chi
cago Worlds Fair.
The resolution of Senator Thurston of
Nebraska appropriating $780, 600 for the
representa- ton OF this country at the Paris
exposition failed of passage through the
House at the extra session. BY the terms
oil this resolution there are TO be hve

This was what De Young had his eye
on, and asa stepping-stone to it he was
anxious to be appointed TO the place filled
to-day as special commissioner to make
preliminary arran gements for the United

ton bill appropriated $4,000 for this pur-

HEALDSBURG, CAL, July 27-Ed
Jagoe, who lives on ranch in Mendocino
Township, near skaggs Springs, had an
experience with wild boar yesterday,
which he will not soon forget. Wild hogs
are numerous in the mountains in this
locality and are very vicious when pressed
in close quarters. Jagoe was out trying to
get back a few tame porkers which had
strayed away, and found them with half a
dozen wild hogs in thick patch of brush.
With the aid of bulldog he had se-
cured and tied one, ard wes in the act OF
getting the other when his dog was at
tackled by monster boar. He rushed to
the assistance of the dog, and in trying tp
save the valuable animal was severely
bitten. After battle at close quarters
with the infuriated hog he finally sue
ceeded in killing it with well-directed
thrust OF his bowie-knife. The dog was so
seriously wounded by the boar that it had

lug.
This proba bly, had its effect on Hanson,
who in his sleep sprang out OF bed, ran to
the end of the barge and jun ped into the
river.
The contact with the water awoke him
and he cried for help. A fisherman near
by said he shouted three times.
