Satisfied With Rating of, San
Joaquin Valley Route.

Sacramento Aug. 9.-"The Santa Fe
system, within the confines of the state
of California, has been conducted at a
loss.'' declared A. P. AIaginnis, repre-
sentative Of that system, who appeared
before the state board of equalization
this morning. This loss has been car
ried by the earnings of the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe, which, with its
system of feeders, has been a money
producer during the past year, and, at
the present time, the California division
is indebted to the former system in a
deficit Of over one million dollars
How do you account for this?" ask
ed Equalizer Lew Brown.
well, our system has been built in
sections that at present are not pro-
ductive, but the very fact that these
sections are now tapped by transporta-
ton facilities will insure their becom-
ing populated and eventually produc-
tive, so that. in the future, our people
hope to reap a benefit for their invest
ment.
1.-THE San Joaquin Valley road has
made a net earning Of $29 800, but we
have paid s1O4. 600 interest. which leaves
a deficiency of $4,000 This is paying
at the rate of per cent on the bonds.
Still. we do not consider that the road
is too heavily assessed, and we shall
ton of our system running from
Needles to Mojave that was operated
last year at a deficit of S4080 900. This
road is assessed at IS. 706 per mile, which
is excessive. We should like to have
this reduced. By the first of the year
we will have the San Joaquin Valley
road embodied in the Santa Fe system
and operate it as a, whole
ON the first Monday in March this
road was 3O3 miles in length, valued at
81, 81, 500 and was assessed at ST. 600 per
mile. The road cost on an average from
$4,000 to $4,000 per mile to build"
Beamer-DO you think the philan-
thropists who built this road realized
any material profit?
Maginnis-I can not say. I do not
think they lost anything.
Beamer-YOu know that for a long
time it was impressed upon the people
that the people were greatly indebted
to the projectors Of this road, who
were simply building it to benefit the
public. but I have learned since that
they have been financially greatly bene-
flied.
well. I don't doubt it," replied Mr..
Maginnis.
After considerable discussion on the
cost of road building and finances gen
orally, the board took a recess. A gen
eral discussion of the Santa Fe system
in the south is to follow.

ASTONISHED THE DOMINIES
TFrom the Philadelphia Post.l

IL
Judge z. B. Martindale of Indianap-
oils, Ind. owns one of the handsomest
residences in that city-a large stone
mansion hidden from the street by a
thick grove of trees It was in this
house that one of the most exciting
functions ever known in the hOosier
capital took place many years ago, the
true story of which is now printed for
the first time. The judge, who was
one of the leaders of society and at
the same time was a pillar in the
Presbyterian church. has issued invita-
tons for a fancy dress ball, which at
the last moment he had to withdraw
because of the presence in this country
of large body of Presbyterian dele
gates from Great Britain on their way
to an international conference in the
west.
They were to be entertained at the
judges on the night set for the ball
1t so happened that every guest re-
ceived his notice save one, a merchant
named Woodward. who was on trip
through the northwest. 1t also hap
pened that Mr.. Woodward had hit upon
the most startling disguise Of any
planned. He had bought a complete
costume of a Sioux war chief and in
tended making up as nearly like the or
iginal as possible.
Mr. Woodward did not return to IN
dianapOlis until the evening fixed for
the ball, and. therefore. to save time put
on his costume at his office and drove
to the Martindale residence in his car
riage. which he dismissed at the gate
Through the trees and shrubbery he
glided steathily until he reached the
house Looking through the window
Mr.. Woodward saw some persons
whom he knew and many of whom he
did not. but every one was in ordinary
evening dress.
They've unmasked.'' soliIoquized the
war chief. but I'll have my fun just
the same" Thereupon. stepping upon
a ledge, he made one spring through
the open window and landed in the cen
ter of a. group of Scotch delegates, mean
time brandishing a genuine tOmahaWk
and uttering shrill and blood-curdling
war whoOps.
The effect was astounding to the
masquerade. Some of the guests faint
ed, others crept under the tables and
sofas or fed to the upper stories of
the house. It took only an instant for
Mr.. Woodward to discover that a terri
BILE mistake had been made. In order
to preserve his identity and make his
escape he gave a, few more whoops ex-
ecuted a fearful dance and darted out
Of the window into the darkness.
It was explained to the foreign guests
that one of the Indianapolis Indian
tribes was evidently restless. but that
no further trouble need be feared. AS
for Mr. Woodward. his side of the story
was not known for nearly 20 years af-
terWard.
