DECIDE ROUTE
FOR NEW ROAD
Gould Engineers Go Over
Territory Surveyed for
Western Pacific Railway
ABANDON DEER CREEK
H. II. Yard Says Plans Are
Rapidly Shaping for the
Early Construction of Line

H. H. Yard, president of the Butte
and Plumas Railroad. who has re-
Gently assumed charge of the West
ern Pacific Railway project; E. j.
Yard, his cousin, who is chief engi-
neer of the Denver and Rio Grande
road at Denver, and Virgil G. Bogue,
former chief engineer of the Union
Pacific and now supposed to be act
ing as consulting engineer for the
Goulds, arrived in this city yesterday
from Northern California, where, with
Engineer Dillman of the Western Pa
cific and an engineer of the Butte and
FIumas road, they have been inspect
ing the proposed routes of the West
ern Pacific.
The party has been in Northern Cal
ifornia for several weeks looking over
the ground, with a view TO definitely
determining the exact route to be
taken by the Western Pacific. H. II.
Yard said yesterday that as result
of the trip it had been decided TO
build UP the Feather River by way of
Oroville and cut out the Deer Creek
route. Fredonia Pass has been Sc
lected as the most suitable means Of
crossing the State line into Nevada,
where much work is still TO be done
by the surveying parties in changing
lIlc OIlSllldl fOuLC VI 1AAC AAC" OF~A~
land road. Although Yard is in charge
of the work of the surveying parties
of both the Western Pacific and the
Butte and Plumas Roads, the two con-
Germs are kept distinct and their re-
spective engineering parties are work
ing as If for rival corporations. This
idea is being carried out with view
of obtaining the best results.
1t was said yesterday by Yard that
the capital necessary to construct the
road is already assured and a large
portion of it is now on deposit in
the vaults of the Bowling Green Trust
Company of New York. Attorney
Bartnett, who first appeared as the
protector of the Western Pacific, is
still detained in that city in connec-
tion with the affairs of the enterprise
During the coming year, it is expected,
the two Feather River roads will be
consolidated in order to further the
plans of the transcontinental line.
f. J. Yard. apparently acting in the
interests of the Goulds. has been for
over a year, as announced some
months ago in The Call, receiving re-
ports of operations at this end of the
route and deciding disputes that arose
between the rival parties engaged in
selecting a proper route from the
coast. 1t is with n view to finally set
Ting up all remaining differences that
he and Engineer Bogue have made
their present trip to California.

gave their preference were for Root.
The chairmen of Kings and Rense-
laer counties said they were for TIM
othy l.. Woodruff and the chairman of
Richmond County declared himself for

DEATH YELLED
IN MYSTERY
Body of Mexican Is Found
Near Riverside Circum-
stances Point to Murder
SHERIFF INVESTIGATES
Mans Dress Indicates That
He Was Killed in Bed and
Carried to Hiding Place
Special Dispatch to The Call.

RIVERSIDE, Aug. 14-While walk
ing through his ranch, about three
miles east of High Grove, to-day, John
Oatman, a prominent rancher, discov-
cred the body of a man lying under
pile Of brush. When the Coroner ar
rived he found that there were two
bullet holes in the back of the mans
head in such place that they could
not have been self-inflicted.
The body was that of a Mexican
about 40 years of age, and death had
occurred at least two weeks ago. There
was nothing on the body by which it
could be identified. The position of the
remains, the fact that the mans shoes
were q rod away and other circum-
stances convince Sheriff Coburn that
the man was murdered at some other
place and the body carried to the
spot where il was found.
When the mans coat was removed
il was found that under it he wore a
woman's night dress and no under
clothing. This leads to the supposition
that he was murdered while in bed
and then the body was dressed and
carried TO the hillside and concealed.
No Mexicans have been reported as
missing in this vicinity for six months.

REVIEWS PARTY HISTORY.
Republican Campaign Text Book Tells
What Has Been Accomplished.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE Re-
publican campaign text book of 1904
is just about to be issued. The fol-
lowing is a synopsis of the book pre-
pared by the Republican campaign
committee:
The four great facts which justified the Re
publican party in asking the support OF the
public in 1900 were: First. that its pledges
of 1896 had been redeemed: second, that pros
perlty had come a result: third. that devel-
the principles upon which the Democracy then
appealed for public support; and fourth the
condition which had come TO other parts of
the world and their people a result of
promises fulfilled by the Republican party in
the United States
These assertions made in the textbook Of
1900 have been fully justified by the added es-
Of 1896 and those made in 1900 have been re-
deemed. The protective tariff has been re-
stored the gold standard made permanent;
Cuba freed and given independence; the Pana-
ma canal assured under the sole ownership
and control Of the United States; a Depart
nent of Commerce and La Dor established: rural
free delivery given millions of the agri-
regulation OF trusts and great corporations
strengthened and enforced; prosperity estab-
lished; commerce developed; labor protected
and given ample employment and reward; in
telligence, prosperity and good government es-
tablished In distant islands and the flag of
the United States made the emblem of honor
in every part Of the world
been the work OF the Republican party. In
each of them 1t has met the encouragement
the opposition and the hostility of the De-
mocracy.

clans being evenly divided that organ
