Prominent Men Make Strong Repre-

Hopes Entertained Bill
May Be Vetoed
Special TO The Herald.

Special TO The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINo, March 19.--The
San Bernardino delegation which went
to Sacramento to make protest TO
Governor Pardee against the signing Of
the county division bill was before the
governor yesterday afternoon. Ad-
dresses we're made against the bill by
Judge 3. r. BIedsoe and Attorney c. G.
Haskell Later the arguments were re-
dueed to writing and filed with the
governor. 1t is believed by those who
are close to the situation that the bill
will not be permitted by the governor
to become a law. More than 1000 pri-
vate kilograms, beside messages from
boards of trade ana other organizations
OF business men and truit growers all
over the county have been poured in on
the governor in opposition to the bill
Trains In Collision
The Santa Fe yesterday had a bad
freight wreck on the Cajon pass grade,
1t being a rear-end collision between
two freights that were climbing the
hill. Several freight cars were smashed
to kindling wood and the line was
blocked for something more than eight
hours. No one was injured.
Thieves Are Magnanimous
The robbers that held up the Kelly
Bros. store at Idlewild Friday night
were really gallant. When they had
forced their way into the bedroom
where Kelly and his wife were sleeping
they found over $100 in the bed. But
Mrs. Kelly pleaded with them, saying
hard work and she needed 1t, to which
one replied that he had never robbed
woman and would not do 80 now
and returned the cash to the woman
The officers have a miners pick and
a machinists hammer that the thieves
used in breaking In the door. The
hammer is new and has been identified
as having been purchased in a San
Bernardino hardware store. This is
considered as an important clew. The
robbers were tracked from the scene
of the robbery to Redlands Junction
and then to Redlands, where the trace
was lost. Several suspects have been
picked up, but none were identified and
it Is doubtful whether the thieves will
be caught. The fact that they were
masked makes it difficult to identify
them.
Plan Railway Improvements
John F'lagg, who has been the nomi-
nee of the Hanford wing of the Repub-
licans in the Second ward for council
man, seems to have swung loose from
that organization by nominating him
self by petition as an independent can
didate.
The Southern Pacific Is planning on
making some still further extensive
improvements in this city. AS soon as
the new passenger station is completed
the company will rebuild the terminal
yards here. put in more team tracks,
erect a four-stall roundhouse, fence in
the yards and otherwise improve the
grounds so as to put them in first-class
shape for the handling of the business
in this city. The passenger station is
of pure mission type and when COM
pleted will be one of the most hand
some in Southern California.

ALL ARE GRATIFIED.
Students and Faculty Delighted
at Dr.. Johnston's Acceptance.
Especial to The Times Dispatch.)

(Specal to The Times Dlspatch.)
y CHARLOTTESVILLE. VA, October T.
The election of DR.. George Ben. john
ston to the chair Of surgery IN the Univer-
sity of Virginia was a thing hoped for
by many friends of the institution, and
tho distinguished surgeons acceptance Of
the post gives greatest satisfaction.
Within the institution itself this new
order of things is looked upon optimsti-
cally. That Is the view certainly OF his
future colleagues in the medical depart
ment and they will give him very cor
dial welcome to their faculty. The stu
dents share this feeling. The reputation
of DR.. Johnston as q great surgeon they
regard as adding new lustre to Virginia.
and they are ready to acclaim him or
any other learned man who comes to
their Alma Mater, bringing increase of
strength. 524
The sentiment at large accords with
that Of tho faculty and students. Diff
ferent reasons for their feeling OF gratlf-
cation might be assigned by them, but
the feeling itself Is tho same. There has
always been a fear that q part Of the
school Of medicine, as they put 1t, would
be removed to Richmond, and anything
that promised security against this divi-
sion appealed to their feelings and con-
vlctions as wise. Whatever their method
OF reasoning, their conclusion is that
the school will continue as a whole and
entire, and that the proposed amalgama-
ton will get little further than the joint
committee. to whose consideration 1t has
been referred. 1t Is not believed that the
plan is looked upon by the board of vis-
tors as wise or even prudent. Such. at
any rate, Is the drift of conservatism, and
