Train.

Byron Pike, brakeman on the Will

killed at Nottingham station Monday
afternoon, being run over by part of
his own train. He was on the freight

was switching. Pike started to divide the
train at the switch and slipped, falling
under the cars. Several cars passed over
him, and he was dead when picked up by
the other trainmen. 1t was showing
slightly, and this is thought to have
caused him to slip. Pixies home was in

Case Vas Continued.

The case of Hum So. the Clifton
Chinese merchant. has been continued
until January llth to allow
low him to secure affidavits before the
United States Commissioner In San
Francisco to show that he was born
there. He has affidavits 10 show that
he was living there when he was six
years old and to show that he has
been q well-to-do merchant Of Clifton
for the past four years. Ben Crawford
of Clifton made affidavit to this latter
fact
Hum So never had any papers. He Ia
now twenty-five yeas old and about
two months ago made up his mind to
go back to China and get married, He
was persuaded by a Clifton lawyer
that he needed papers and this was
what got him into trouble.
Mr. Webb suspected from his papers
when he examined them here that
Hum So was illegally in the United
States and so arrested him. Ihe
mans trunks went into San Francisco
but were released later. He was re-
leased on bond and is now awaiting
the arrival of evidence to show that
he was born In the United States. IL
he can establish this fact 1t will serve
to show what hardship the Exclusion
Act works ON native born Chinese

WASHINGTON Dec. 28.-The pro-
moters OF the proposition to reduce
the representation OF the Southern
States In Congress are not much en-
couraged to continue the efforts start
ed so bravely at the beginning OF the
session The prospects OF favorable
action are not regarded as so promis-
ing as they seemed few weeks ago.
There is intimation of lack OF
heartiness at the White House In the
support desired for the success OF tae
scheme. 1t Is said that while Presi-
dent Roosevelt has not deprecated the
movement, he has not agreed TO lead
it. and that was what was wanted of
him. He would probably sign bin II
Congress should present one to him.
but II now seems doubtful II he can
be induced to urge the legislation upon
Congress.
There is also some dissatisfaction
among the Southern Republicans.
which while In itself Is hardly sufii-
cient to make great deal of difference
adds to the difficulties of the situation.
There Is no doubt that there is a
strong sentimen. among the Republi-
cans favorable to the plans of Mr..
Crumpacker and Mr.. Moody, and the
objections of the of the Southern Re-
publicans could probably be easily
overruled by the majority.
1t is the supposed attitude OF the
White House that bothers the men
who are In earnest about trying to
bring about a reform which they
preach, lor long time They say the
