SCHNEIDER HAS
BETTER PLACE
Suddenly Declines Manage
ment of Foster Road and
Will Go to Los Angeles
TO JOIN HUNTINGTON
Santa Fe Man to Succeed
Epes Randolph as the Head
of the Big Electric System

The information was given out yes
terday from the offices of the California
northwestern Railroad that A. D.
SCHNEIDER, superintendent of the San
Joaquin Valley division of the Santa
re road, who was recently appointed
manager of the first mentioned road
and assistant to President A. w. Fos-
ter. had suddenly declined the position.
HIS appointment was to have been eff
fective to-day, but early yesterday
morning SCHNEIDER notified President
Foster that he would have to decline
the place in view of the fact that he
had been offered a more important po-
sltlon with greater remuneration in the
employ of the Huntington Hellman
street railway syndicate of Los An
geles
superintendent SCHNEIDER was in con-
terence with President Foster for some
time yesterday The former informed
the head of the California Northwest
ern that he had received an offer direct
from Henry E. Huntington of the posi-
ton or general manager of the Pacific
Electric Railway Company of Los An
geles, now held by Epes Randolph. The
latter, 1t is reported, is a very sick
man, and for that reason he is prac-
tically making his home in Phoenix,
many miles from the scene of opera
lions of the road of which he is the
head. From what can be inferred from
Huntington's offer to Superintendent
SCHNEIDER, Randolph is expected to re-
tire from active service with the Hunt
ington- Hellman street railway lines,
and in anticipation of this fact Hunt
ington sought the services of SCHNEIDER.
When the latter will enter upon his
duties in the south has not yet been
decided upon. Immediately after his
meeting with President Foster, Schin-
dler departed for Los Angeles.
An assistant to President Foster on
the coast road will probably be Sc
lected next week

mittee appointed to investigate the sub
ject of tuberculosis, made a report In
which they recommend that the matter
of isolating the tubercular patients In
the City and County Hospital be imme-
diately taken up, so that the other in
mates may not be unnecessarily ex-
posed. The committee finds that
there are at present fifty three
tubercular patients in the institu-
ton named, thirty-six of whom are
beyond all help. The remaining
seventeen are said to be amenable
to out-of- door treatment. The commit
tee recommends the erection of a male
and a female tubercular ward in the
hospital for the exclusive treatment OF
such patients, also a strict inspection
of the tenement districts. and that ten

be condemned and torn down, and that

SPECULATION PROHIBITED.

The following extract from a
circular of the General Land Of
flee will doubtless be of interest
to intending homesteaders in
this locality. While it applies
to all land entries, it is especial
" important in its relation to
the homesteads taken up under
the Government irrigation pro-
iects, as such entries will be care
fully watched to provide against
fraud:
"Relinquishments run to the
United States alone. and no per-
son obtains any right to the
land by the mere purchase of a
REIMBURSEMENT of a filing or
entry.
Entries and filings made for
the purpose of holding the land
for speculation and the sale of
accomplishments are illegal and
fraudulent, and every effort in
the power of the Government
will be exerted to prevent such
frauds and to detect and punish
the perpetrators.
Purchasers of relinquish-
ments, of such fraudulent filings
or entries should understand
that they purchase at their own
risk so tar as the United States
is concerned, and must seek their
own remedies under local laws
against those who, by imposing
such relinqrishments upon them,
have obtained their money with
out valuable consideration"

R CLOSING.

Sheriff Shirley has given notice
that the saloons of Fallon must
close ut midnight and remain
closed until six o'clock a.. III.
This action is taken in accord
ancc with the laws of Nevada
regarding this subject which
have been OH the statute books
for Il number of years past.
Whether the law is or is not in
furious to business remains to
be seen. In either instance, the
officers are not the cause. 1t is
the law of the land and laws
must be obcved and enforced,
though it does seem queer that
the guardians of the peace and
public morals have for such a
number of wears countenanced
an open violation of the law, if
the same is really meritoriOus.
