Engineer John Hanson, on the switch
engine. brought the cars back before
one engine had cleared the switch,
the comissary car hitting the engine
on the side. The cab was wrecked
and the engine KILLED" The car

overturned. Temporary repairs
were Immediately made on the car
and another engine was sent for
from Pueblo to replace the damaged
one. The accident to Gould's car
has caused sorrow to all employees
on the division who feel that their
reputation as good railroad men has
been ruined in the eyes of Mr.. Gould

The morning paper knows full well
that the commissioners are Just as
guilty as Sheriff Mccartney In the
matter OF illegal fees. 1t is the
y!uee OF tie commissioners and their
attorney to scrutinlze the bills pre-
sented and il not according to law
and services performed, to cut them
down. A Republican is necessity
on the board If there is to be check
on the commissioners.

ON
WAY TO CHINA
The Consu!-G at
Shanghai Aboard
Nippon.

The Hon John Goodnow, United
States Consul General at Shanghai, pass
ed through here yesterday on the Nip
pom Maru, on his way to the orient. he
is accompanied ny his wife.
Just before his departure from san
Francisco, Mr.. Goodnow delivered an
address in the Chamber of Commerce TO
a number of merchants, taking for ms
subject, Our Oriental Trade and the
Present Situation in China"
Mr., Goodnow said there was no city
in the United States so greatly interest
ed in the Oriental trade as San Fran
cisco. He urged the establishment at
Shanghai, the central point of the chi
nese trade with foreign peoples, OF an
exhibit or exposition where the natives
could see the novelties and products
ICalifornians have to sell.
IF you are going after the trade, ne
said You must send out the particular
goods offered and ship promptly You
must also cater to the superstitions or
the people It will not do to do as one
American firm did some time ago. The
, firm sent out a big lot Of handkerchle1s
and had worked on each Chinese SYM
hol of good luck. Now, you couldn't get
:. Chinese to blow his nose into one OF
/. ose handkerchief with a good-luck
:. rnbol The handkerchiefs could not
he sold nor given away.
| We need more transportation facilt-
tiles Gu the Pacific. Merchants at Shang-
hal tell me they can get an order OF
goods from London quicker than from
san Francisco. Now, such a condition
lof affairs is radically wrong. The time
lis coming when such conditions will DC
lremed;ed. I was speaking to Mr.. Hill g
few days ago in Chicago. and in speak
ling of the two big steamers now build
i've for tho Great Northern company, hi
Isa7d that one and probably both of then
would be on the Pacific in the fall. w
iwant plenty of ships. for, as 1t Is TO-DAY

A Peculiar Plant.

At the home of Councilman Robert
McGear, North Pearl street, there is
plant which attracts general atten-
tion. 1t is very peculiar, nothing
like it ever being seen in this section.
Upon the floor is fairly large bulb,
dry in character, and shooting up
from it is single stalk, possibly four
feet high and very substantial in it's
circumference. The stalk is the color
of alligator skin and marked in the
manner of such skin. Surmounting
it is large blooming lily, the flower
being very dark red. From the
centre of the lily shoots out a long
petal or tongue, which is also red.
The plant is commonly known as an
alligator plant, it's proper name being
Amorphophallus Revierri, it being a
species of Chinese plant. Mrs. McGear
secured the plant from her sister, who
procured it from the Orient. 1t is
six years old.
