WITHDRAWS ITS TRAINS
OPPOSITION TO HAYWARDS is

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,

9OS Broadway, May ..
The Southern Pacific Railroad has
given up its fight against the Haywards
electric road, having been thoroughly
beaten, and has withdrawn from the con-
test. This fact viii be made known in
q few days, when the timetables now in
course of preparation are issued.
Two years ago the travel on the cleo
tric road was so large that the Southern
Pacific determined that it would, If pos
sible. procure a share OF it. 1t announced
that il would run fast local trains 10
Haywards from Oakland every hour, and
as the trip can be made in less than half
an hour il was expected that the hun
dreds of people who patronized the elec
tic road would be won over to the rail-
road company. as the fares were the
same.
This expectation was not realized. ow-
ing largely to the fact that When the
Southern Pacific established its depot at
HaywaTds il was built about mile from
the town and a railroad hOrsecar line
ran from the junction TO HayWards ms

was a dire failure, and the depot on the
marsh has never been used except by
those who We're forced 10 patronize 1t.
The electric road from oakland 10 nay
wards which was opened about five years
ago. runs along the county road and di-
rectly through the town OF Haywards, as
we'll as through all the little towns en-
route The half hourly service proved
more acceptable than the hourly service
of the Southern Pacific. although the time
occupied is twice : long. For long time
the hourly train left the pier and ran to
Haywards. 1t consisted of a lone coach
and locomotive and presented solitary
appearance flying along the marsh. fre-
Quently with not more than one or two
passengers in il. SO easy has the travel
become that the conductor was frequently
jolled about taking his sleep when on the

Gently all but two or three were taken off
and now information is given out at the

An examination has been made of the

animation was that II was discovered to
be technically imperfect in that 1t omlts
to assert that Mr.. Roberts was elected
in compliance with the laws of the state
of Utah and OF the United States. The
first impression made by this discovery
was that 1t might furnish solution Of
the Roberts question, but on further
examination II was found that about
nine out Of every ten OF the certificates
of election of members OF the house
were deficient in this respect. Therefore,
to make a point OF 1t would be to throw

There Is great variation IN the form

Early In July, 1898, when the American
army in Cuba was supplying food to
the starving reconcentrados in ISl Gu

The order set IN motion one Of the

Lieutenant Brooke and an interpreter

At length, his last ounce OF strength

glanced back Mt him stolldly and went
on. Their own strength would be hard
~ sufficient to carry them to camp, and
suffering had dulled their sensibIlItles.

Lieutenant Brooke dropped from his
hose, nlrkcd the little fellow up, and
gallOped into camp with him. There he
led aim until he could eat no more.
wrapped him In warm blankets and
left him to the long. dreamless sleep of
exhausted childhood. An old Cuban
woman washed his little cotton shirt
and trousers, and after few days
rest he was sent back TO I'll CRney
with u generous supply of provisions.
Two days later the little fellow, still
weak and pale, again appeared In
camp. Going straight to Lieutenant
Brooke, he took 4 small chicken from

his eyes presented It. II was the only

Lieutenant Brooke took the chicken
to General Shafter and told It's story.
The general tethered 1t to his tent pole.
When he entered Santiago he took the
