WhoKlIled Him?

There was Mexican found dead
near the G. 81. track at Hancock yes
terday. His name is said to be Juan
Vernal and his body is badly bruised
up, one of his arms being torn from it's
socket Which of the train crews kill
ed him is hard to tell as several of
them passed there during the nj ght,
east and west bound, but none of them
saw him. All the crews seem to know
ia that there was q man killed at that
point and that he was Mexican.
When passenger train No. 20 passed
that point about noon yesterday the
remains were laying on blanket and
q great crowd around viewing them.
How he was killed is MYSTERY now
and will probably remain so. The rail-
road Office at this point was notified of
the finding of the body and request
made that coffin be sent from this
point to receive the remains.

LINK AND Pm. !.

agreement to take the place of the
rules of the joint traffic association has
been adopted, for the, purpose. q. the
preamble recites, of complying with
federal and state laws relative to trans.
portation, exchanging opinions and
maintaining inspection bureaus. The
membership under the revived agree
ment is practically the same as before
and expenses are to be borne in pro-
portion to the gross revenue received
py each member from its traffic. The
first consequence of this reOrganiza-
ton is q reiteratiOn OF the determine
ton to abide by established rates, both
for freight and passengers. 1t has also
been decided that the payment OF COM
missions, through which the demorali-
cation of passenger rates usually has
come about, shall be discontinued. The
new freight rates correspond more
closely with what has actually been
charged than with published schedules,
and differentials on !grain for export,
which are given to ports south OF New
York, are thereby reduced one half.
These are provisions which ought to
we'll as the business of the railroads.
Reduced rates on business originating
west of the Mississippi are necessary,
is to be brought to eastern ports, In
stead of being taken to the Gulf. Each
railroad, however, probably has fixed
its schedules low enough to get Its
share of the traffic. The
question which the future is to
determine is whether all the mem
bers of the new association will hold to
these schedules. Each is threatened
with exposure by the others and the
interstate commerce commission stands
ready to prosecute. II is possible that
in these circumstances the agreement
to maintain rates will be an Interesting
experiment and, If successful, will be
an example for all the railroads of the
country.
The question naturally suggests it
self whether this new agreement is
legal. The decision of the supreme
court against the joint traffic associa-
ton was very broad and sweeping.
The railroads at once declared that 1t
would prevent all agreements between
different systems. But there are num-
Der of associations now in existence.
So,long as they do not fix rates or
they can be regarded as inconsistent
with the Antitrust law. At least, it
ought not to be illegal for the cOmpa-
MES to assist the commission in COM
polling observance of published
schedules, for that is one of the most
important proposes of the inter state
commerce law. If the trunk lines ac-
complish that object, they are not
likely to be disturbed in this new
agreement.

railroad men at the depot when the

the best thing to do with him was

proach him and ''pump" him, as the
saying is. Toe arrival remsined in
the hotel for about an hour and when
he came out be looked up and down the

A FILIBUSTER.
Said tc Have Been Captured by a
Mexican Gunboat.

GUAYMAS (Mexico), Aug. 1.-THE
gunboat Democratic left port on Tues
day, and a rumor was started that it
went to intercept a vessel from San
Francisco carrying Gatling guns, rifles
and ammunition to the Yaquis. The
gunboat has not returned, but rumor
says that it has captured the filibus-
ter.
Guaymas is full of Yaquis working
at all sorts of occupations. Several
sloops laden with produce and manned
by Yaquis arrived yesterday from the
river. They report that when the
troops reached Vicam Friday the town
was deserted and no fight took place.
A body of Indians met the troops on
the march toward the town and held
them in check until the Yaquis had left
the town, and then they disappeared in
the woods. The main body of the In
dians including women and children,
crossed on a raft to the north bank of
the river made a detour behind the
troops, and escaped to the mountains.
The Yaqui Indians loss in the skirmish
was three. The horse under General
Torres was shot.
The remainder of the campaign will
probably consist of scouting in the
mountains on the part of the troops
and raids on the Guaymas Valley
ranches by the Indians.

lie of Santo Domingo, left here to-day

his departure. He was accompanied by
two friends. They were all unarmed.
private yacht was placed at the
disposal of JimineZ to take him to San
tiago, but Jiminez would not give the
name of her owner.
Jiminez says he will unite all the ISL
ands of Santo Domingo under one gov
ernment, which will be greatly to the
advantage of all parties, as it will
mean the formation of a strong admin
fstration. He adds that there are
plenty Of honest and competent men to
fill the posts under him.
JimineZ asserts that the present condf-
tions of affairs in Hayti, which country
is bordering on a revolution, lends it
self to the idea. Jiminez's son will re-
main in Havana in order to wind up his
affairs. If his father is successful in
his Santo Domingo expedition, his son
will shortly join him.

himself and defied arrest on Saturday

him.
Eight of his typesetters came out of

were few slight demonstrations in the
streets in the neighborhood, but they
were easily quelled. Another attempt
made by NJ Laces to mediate between

failed.
The Guerin situation early this after

were erected at both extremities of the

appropriately observed the same. Early
Monday morning the members Of each
society began to assemble at Turner
Hall, and at 8 o'clock they formed in line
of procession and preceded by the Gold
Coin Band marched to The Church of
the Assumption, where appropriate re-
ligious services were held, Rev. Father
Desaulniers, the pastor, officiating. At
the close Of the services the societies re-
formed and marched through the princi-
pal streets to Turner Hall, where they
disbanded. The services at the church
were largely attended.
The festivities OF the day closed with
a grand ball at Turner hall which was
largely attended and dancing was kept
up until two o'clock Tuesday morning.
There was good feeling prevailing the
entire day. The Opera House Orchestra
furnished the music. Bart Camille was
marshal OF the day.
