WILL NOT ISSUE BONDS,
EcuadOr's Refusal Causes Rail-
road to BE Abandoned,

A. Seegmiller, in charge of the
work on the Guayaquil and Quito
railway in Ecuador, arrived in San
Francisco on the steamer San Juan.
He said that work on the road has
been abandoned and it is unlikely the
line will be extended to Quito for sew
eral years, If ever. The road has now
reached Guamote.

said he, "has refused to issue bonds
to carry the work further. Guamote
is ITO miles to GuayquiI and is 10, 900
feet above the sea level. The road
has been constructed at great cost,

Railroad Sign Language.

1t is not deaf mutes alone who en-
ploy the sign language. Railroaders
have tongue of this sort that, since
railroading began, has been growing
until now anything that needs to be
said in it can be expressed as per-
fectly as in words, says the Phiadel-
phia Record. The signals of rail-
readers are made with the hands and
arms in the daytime and with liant
ern in the dark, the lantern signals,
by the way, being comprehensive at
a far greater distance than the day
time ones. The latter are made with
one arm or with both, at the brake
mans option. To go ahead, to stop
and to back are the leading ones.
The arms used horizontally and ver-
tically make the first two signals;
the back turned and the arms pushed
out makes the last one. The main
lantern signals are an up, and down,
a crosswise and IA circular movement.
There are, OF course, hundred other
minor signals, and these vary slightly
in different parts of the country.
But the main ones are as common
and as ineligible everywhere among
American railroaders as the English
language itself.

CALIFORNIA And
STANFORD TIE
HonorS of Football Game
Divided
Opinions Of Overall Of California,
Bansbach of Stanford and
Referee Dudley.

When the California eleven met the
Stanford team on Richmond Field, il
proved a signal for wild enthusiasm
among the partisans of both sides.
The tie game which resulted is of
especial local interest, owing to the
fact that it is only a few weeks ago
that California was beaten by the
sagebrush eleven.
An excellent idea of the main fea-
lures of the game is given in the
statements made by Captain Overall
OF California, Captain Bansbach of
Stanford and Referee Dudley:
CAPTAIN OVERALL OF CALIFORNIA.
Il was a good game. They played
hard and fast, but | think we held
Stanford down. Their man Sprott
was a gritty fellow and played
corking game. He was out of his
head the whole of the last half. All
our men were in fine condition and
fought for all they knew how. |
think we got the worst of it in penal
ties, but it was because the referee
watched us more carefully than he
did Stanford. A man can't help
playing off sides sometimes, but il we
hadn't q mistaken Repatriation for
doing it, | don't believe we would
have lost so much ground. No, I'm
not satisfied with tie game; | think
we ought to have won I'm sorry |
missed that goal from field.
CAPTAIN BANsBAcH OF STANFORD.
am prejudiced, of course, but l
think that we outplayed them
throughout the whole of the game.
The tie score doesn't show who had
the better of the argument. There
is one thing about it that we can all
feel glad over. 1t was a clean game.
The officials were square. They saw
everything and were not slow to
infict penalties when they were de-
served. Whatever credit is due
Stanford for her showing must 90 to
Coach flanagan. He is the best
coach that Stanford ever had. The
men swear by him and would do
every thing for him, because he has
done everything for them and for the
college. | cannot help Looking on
the game as Stanford's.
REFEREE DUDLEY:
1t was a fine even contest that
promised to be brilliant at first ana
was at all times interesting. Stan
ford outplayed her opponents In the
first half, but California appeared to
be in better condition ana overcame
her in the next period of play. In
the second half, Overall's punting
was splendid and both teams showed
some excellent material.
The whole contest was character
lied by gentlemanly conduct on both
sides, but the penalties for interior.
ing with the ball in line plays and
out of bounds were not severe enough.
Men on both teams were offenders
and should in future be more careful.
