bachelor. Today Vineland
has about 800 people, being
fully as many as Lewiston

vegetables, but more in the

investment Of 500; by i'm

others have done correspond
ingly we'll. The big bridge
enhances values over the
whole fat. Prices are con-
stantly rising. Choice resi-

with cheap water, are still to

A Rush OF Travel Promised fol
- July, 1901.


T. H. Goodman, general passenger
agent of the Southern Pacific. received
a telegram yesterday containing news
which will be of great interest to all
classes of business men in this city 1t
came from Assistant General Passen-
ger Agent Horsburgh. who is now in
Indianapolis. and contained the info~-
nation that through the efforts of the
delegates from this State and Mr..
Horsburgh. the Epworth League Con
vention, which will be held some time
in July, 1901, had been secured for this
city.
This means that at thai time San
Francisco will receive in tn neighbor-
hood of $4,000 visitors. many of whom
have never before been within 2on9
miles of Pacific tide water.
Mr.. Horsburgh left for Indianapolis.
where the general meeting of the Ep-
worth League delegates was being
held, to decide on where to hold their
convention, for the purpose of assisting
to secure the next one for San Fran
cisco. Yesterday a straw vote was
taken and the returns showed an all
most unanimous prediction for the
city by the Golden Gate.
Professor Springer, who is one of the
committee having the detail matter in
charge, and who is now here with the
National EducatiOnists, said yesterday
that the final vote would be taken
Wednesday next and would of surety
result in confirming the straw vote of
the meeting in Indianapolis yesterday.
The Southern Pacific offered as an in
ducement, through Mr.. HOrsburgh. a
round-trip rate of $50 from all Missouri
River points. This is just one-half the
regular rate and $40 less than one-half
the regular sixty-day stOp-over round
trip fare. Through arrangements with
the roads east of the Missouri like
reduction will be made, which will al
low the tourist to attend the conven-
tion from any part of the United States
at one-half or less than one-half of
what he would be forced to pay under
ordinary circumstances.
Four trains containing thirty-four
officers and 97S men of the Nineteenth
Infantry will arrive in the city this
evening from Fort Meade. The troops
are en- route for Manila. Though they
are expected to arrive this evening it
is possible they will not be disembarked
before Monday next.
Yesterday morning the Passenger
Traffic Agents Association had its reg
ular weekly meeting. Agent Stern of
the Canadian Pacific announced his in
tention of resigning, as he had been in
formed that the association had been
organized in violation of the interstate
commerce law. He has as yet, how
ever. taken no official steps to sever
his connection with the association.
At the Phelan building there is now
being held a conference between the
officials of the Southern Pacific and
delegates representing large number
of its employees. The conference has for
it's object the preparation of schedule
OF wages and working hours which will
be accepta BILE both to the employers and
the enDlOVed
