Traffic Through Tunnel 13 Will Be
Resumed Monday Night.

Southern Pacific officials now feel
confident that freight traffic on the line
between this city and Truckee will be
resumed Monday evening next, at the
latest
The work of retimbering and repair
ing Tunnel No. 13. between Summit
Station and Truckee. which on Sunday
last was gutted by fire, is progressing
as rapidly as possible. The damage
is not so great as was feared, and all
OF the cave-ins found up to the present
time have not been of q serious nature.
In many places the track through the
tunnel is intact and will need but little
repairing once the debris shall have
been removed. The principal cause of
delay was the heat gas and steam
Which was shut into the tunnel by a
caving in of the portals. The railroad
authorities have every reason to be-
lieve the line will be open Monday
night, in which case the freight which
has piled up in this city and at Reno
and Truckee, will be rushed through
to its destination as fast as trains can
be run. The relief will be immediate
after the opening of the tunnel

The Plymouth stage was found over

was killed, as one of the wheels rested
on his face and his cheek bone was
broken but the stage was raised and
he was dragged from beneath it, and
was found to be badly bruised. He
did not know how he came there, and
the supposition is that he had fallen

He was taken to the County Hospital,

CUCKOO" COLLINS ESCAPES
TAKES FRENCH LEAVE OF THE
COLORADO PENITENTIARY.
Was Concerned in a Big Diamond
Robbery at Denver and
Captured Here.

Sheriff Johnson received letter yes
terday from Warden Cleghorn of the
Colorado States Prison, located at
Canon City, Col, stating that James.
alias Cuckoo Collins, had made his
escape from that institution in the
early morning Of November Sd.
As Collins had only about three
months more to serve he was allowed
TO become a trusty in the prison yard,
and during a commotion he made his
escape
Collins, it will be remembered, is the
noted footracer, who on March d, 1896,
entered the jewelry establishment Of
Gottesleben & Sons, in Denver, Col,
and, at the point of pistol forced
the clerk to hand him two trays of
diamond rings, valued at $1,000.
he backed out Of the store, and
sprinted down the streets, and as a
nerce snowstorm was raging at the
time, pedestrians were few, and
Cuckoo" managed to get away with
MS booty. He got into Mexico. and
shipped from a Mexican port as an
able seaman on the lumber laden vessel
Alexandria, bound for Perth, Western
Australia, where he started training
school for athletes and opened a BIZ
cycle riding academy.
On Thanksgiving day of go he met
a man in Perth whom he believed he
had seen in Denver, and, fearing de-
lection, he left everything behind him
and fled to Japan and from there to
Alaska. After remaining there for a
short time he wended his way to Ross
land, B. c., where he and Jefferson
Smith, alias "Soapy Smith, engaged in
big jewelry and diamond deal. His
next place to visit was Seattle, then
Portland, and from there he came to
San Francisco, arriving there on March
il, 1897.
When the local train rolled into the
Sacramento depot on the night of
April 10th of that year one of the pas
sengers to alight from the train was
Cuckoo Collins. Two days later he
took a ride on a G. street car and as
the car was turning the corner of Sew
enth and K streets, Sheriff Johnson and
County Detective Max p. Fisher, who
We're standing on that corner We're
struck by the resem blance the stran-
ger bore to a picture which they had
in their "rogues' gallery Following
their man to the race track, where a
wheel race was in progress, these two
officers became convinced that the pas
senger on the street car was. none other
than the much wanted Cuckoo" Col
Inns, and he was promptly nabbed. He
was taken to Denver, where he plead
ed guilty to grand larceny, and was
sent TO Canon City for two years or
June 3, 1897.
'Soapy Smith," whose name was
mentioned above, met a tragic death in
Dawson City, Alaska, short time ago
being shot to death by a man whom
he had robbed. Smith had establish
ed a gambling den in Dawson, and
had collected a gang of equally bad
men as himself around him. who sys-
tematically robbed every miner who
came into town, and the citizens of
Dawson were organizing a vigilance
committee to summarily deal with this
gang, when the head and leader was
put out of harms way and the same
day the rest of the "Soapy Smith" gang
left the town hurriedly

BUNKo MANS SMART TRICK.
Robbed Colusa County Rancher and
Then Tried to Fix the Crime
on a Bootblack.

William Conrad, a bunko steerer, played
q smart trick early yesterday morning to
cave himself from being arrested, but he
was not smart enough.
Conrad introduced himself to Aloert
Wolfe, a rancher from Colusa County. in
the Olympia Music-hall Oh Friday night.
They became quite friendly, and visited
number of saloons together Wolfe
about o'clock IN the morning was led
into doorway on Mission street, between
Third and Fourth. and robbed of SIS in
gold and some silver by Conrad. He re-
membered leaving a saloon with Conrad
but after getting into the street he be-
came helpless.
After Conrad committed the robbery he
got hold of VincenZo Versaya, a boot
black, who was very drunk and threw
him into the doorway beside Wolfe, to
give the impression that the bootbiack
had been with Wolfe and robbed him.
Policemen t. c. Murphy and Moriartv
found Wolfe and the bootblack in the
doorway and arrested them for being
drunk. When searched at the City Prison
Wolfe complained that he had been
robbed, and from the description of the
man who had been with him all night
they arrested Conrad and booked him on
the charge of grand larceny. He was
identified by Wolfe Both Wolfe and Yer
saya were discharged yesterday morning.
