WHIPPED THE JUDGE.
Condition of Anarchy Seems to Pre-
vail in San Salvador.

San Francisco, Oct. 13.-The steamer
City of Panama has arrived from South
American ports. The vessel brings news
of executions and horrible cruelties per
petrated upon political prisoners in San
Salvador.
Referring to the execution of prison
ers Ell Clarion says that at Armenia a
small city of the republic, Los Vezea
de Izalco, a prominent citizen was shot,
while Don Angel Vasquez and Don Del
fin Barrios died in prison as the result
of cruelties on the part Of Gen. Ara
valo. In the police station Don Vanan-
zio Salzar and DR.. Jesus Valdez were
tied up by the thumbs and Colonies
Don Servando Perdza and Don Viegilio
Valencia were shot. These officers had
distinguished themselves in the army
under the regime of the former presi-
dent.
Continuing the article in Ell Clarion
asserts that 20 ladies have been expelled
from Salvador, among whom is the wife
of Don Macario Martinez, one of the
most prominent citizens of Salvador
city. Furthermore, under the direction
of Gen. Villiegas, five persons were shot
in San Pedro, while at San Miguel
many were executed by Gen. Villavi-
cencio.
It appears also that the editor of Ell
Latijo, a journal of Salvador, incurred
the dispIeasure of the government ow-
ing to the publication of several articles
in his journal in defense of certain stu
dents For his offense he was pub
Ideally whipped, and was also the judge
who rendered a decision in favor of the
students

STOPS TEXAS FEVER.
Sanitary Convention Declare Dipping
to Be Success.

Omaha, Oct. 13.-The Interstate San
itary convention has adopted the fol-
lowing resolution on cattle dipping:
Whereas, The experiments recently
conducted have demonstrated that
southern cattle dipped in dynamo oil
saturated with sulphur will effectually
destroy the southern tick, and that such
may be mixed with northern native cat
tie without danger of communicating
Texas or southern fever thereto.
Resolved, That the quarantine regu-
Iations may be amended with safety so
as to permit dipped southern cattle on
the certificate of a designated inspector
of the state or the United States de-
partment of agriculture, to be shipped
to northern states during any portion
of the year.
Next came the report OF the commits
sion on lice which was as follows:
That the state of California be placed
below the federal quarantine line for
the year 1899, and that cattle from said
state shall be admitted to points above
said line only when found free from in
lection after inspection. That this as
ISOLATION recommends the honorable
secretary of agriculture to adopt the
same federal quarantine line for the
year 1899 as that adopted for the year
1898, with the exception Of the state of
California, which is hereby recommend
ed to be placed below the line. And
cattle there from destined to points
above line shall be admitted only when
found to be free from infection after
inspection by the federal authorities
and also with the exception of Giles
county, Tennessee, which is hereby rec
commended to be placed above said line.
The bureau of animal industry was
represented at the meeting by DR.. Nor
gard. DR.. Geddis and Col. Dean. All of
these officials lectured on cattle dip
ping and recommended the continuance
of the experiments.
A resolution was adopted requesting
that state sanitary boards whose 1egis-
latures have enacted laws fixing quar-
t-7tIne lines and dates between which
cattle from certain districts can not be
imported shall use all possible means
to procure the repeal of such acts and
the enactment of legislation in lieu
thereof providing that the governor of
state may by proclamation prohibit the
importation of any kind of live stock
when conditions exist wheich render
such importation dangerous.
The convention further recommended
that all states adopt regulations gov
erning the importation of cattle from
other states in conformity with regula-
tons recommended by the association
and adopted by the department of ag-
riculture.

OVER ONE DIVISION.
Locomotives on Chicago Division of
Santa Fe Will Be Returned
at MARCHING.

Passenger locomotives running on the
Chicago division of the Santa Fe will
no longer be sent from Topeka to Fort
Madison, two divisions, without change.
This order of things was inaugUrated
last spring and has been in effect ever
since. This has carried the engines
over two divisions while the engineers
have been returned at Marceline, one
division with a different locomotive
from the one they went out on from
Topeka.
Engineers like many other people who
carry their lives in their hands daily,
are very superstitious and are attached
to a certain engine with which they be-
come familiar and feel towards it like
a mother to her child. The idea of leav-
ing their locomotive at Marceline and
returning on a strange engine was far
from pleasing to them and they hail
the new order with joy. 1t gives them
the same engine for the round trip.
The change returning engines from
MarceIine will become effective at once.
This is done from economic reasons.
With the approach of winter months
coaling the engines is a problem always
to be considered.
No change will be made out of To-
peka to the west.

PULLMAN PROFITS.
The Company Furnishes Figures of
Its Large Earnings.

To facilitate the work of investigation
into the accounts of the Pullman Car
company that corporation has furnished
the attorney general of California with
figures from its coming annual report.
The attorney general of the Pacific
coast state recently became convinced
that Pullman rates in that state were
altogether too high and ought to be re-
duced. To prove his assertion he asked
the Pullman company to produce a
statement showing the earnings and
expenses for the last year.
Yesterday the Pullman people sent
the desired figures to CALIFORNIA; legal
representative. These figures show that
for the year ending July 81 last the
gross earnings were IS, 974, ISL; expenses,
SO, 81, S6S, leaving net earnings of So
463O19 From the net earnings is de-
Quoted 1912, 1863 other expenses, leaving
net balance of 81, $50. $50, or nearly IL
per cent on the cornpany's present cap

of 8 per cent was paid, which disbursed
81 $50. 600, and leaving a surplus of 81

The MAYOR and collector had both re-

their offices to the Americans except IN
der protest and in the presence OF the
consul and a notary.
In the Office of the collector was FOUND
a cable message from Senior MOntero,
the chief of customs at Havana, notl-
fying him that the military occupations

der the autonomous government ana TO
remit regularly all funds to Havana by

from Senior Maso, president of the in

replied that he would be glad to receive

Manager Lukins said:
The blood of every man shed here
is on the governors head. He is abso-

Justification whatever in refusing TO
send troops. His public statement that
the miner had the same right to fight
for his property, which was his labor
as the mine owner did to protect his
property inspired the men to the acton
which they took in firing upon this train

1000 miles travel, are now on sale at all
