Double Track Laid

During the past week or two the
West Jersey and Seashore Railroad
Company have had their work train
ON the island and a large force of men
have been busy laying the additional
line of track from Anglesea to Wild
wood. This second track is being
placed on the east side of the present
roadbed and is already laid from the
Anglesea station TO 26th street. The
heavy 100 pound rails have also been
meadows as far as 26th street. The
railroad company is surely getting
ready for a big summers business.

lumber jumped the track, making an
obstruction which prevented the bring

FALLS SIXTY FEET TO
BOTTOM OF WELL
Machinist Crashes Through Covering.
Rescued by Fellow
Workman

H. W. McNab, a machinist living at
243S Cincinnati street, was severely in
jured early yesterday morning by fall
ing sixty feet to the bottom of a we'll
in which he was installing a pump at
the Angelus Vista, near the Harvard
school,
McNab and a number of other work
men were on a small platform over
the mouth of the well when the plank
ing gave way, precipitating McNab
into space. The other machnists es-
capped by jumping as the timbers broke
and hastened to relieve their comrade
A stout rope was secured and a well
cleaner volunteered to go after the
body. The rope was placed around his
body and he was lowered to the bottom
of the well. There he found it neces-
sary to dig away quantity of debris
which had fallen from the top and
sides of the we'll over the body of
McNab.
McNab was then hoisted to the sur
face, followed by his rescuer. 1t was
thought that McNab was fatally in
jured and he was hurried to the re-
ceiving hospital, where he was found to
be suffering from a broken arm and
many cuts and bruises. Unless inter-
nal injuries develop it is thought that
no serious results will follow the fall.

Thirteen Chinese. without any regard

represented the gleanings Of a raid

Chinatown district by Officers McGraw

accomplished only by the strategem OF
the officers. For some time past the

Cinnamon went as usual to their gam

Returning Members Indignant Over
an Assault Upon Them by an
Afternoon PAPER

Los Angeles delegates to the gather

terday were indignant upon their re-
turn last night over telegram in the
Express alleging that members of the
Los Angeles lodge had brutally at
tackled and beaten policeman in San
Bernardino A well known citizen
said to The Herald:
about 100 members Of our total
membership of 500 went to San Ber-
nardino yesterday by special train.
Many of the most prominent citizens
of Los Angeles were in the party.
There were no liquors on the train and
none drank. It Is a cardinal principle
of our order that expulsion shall
quickly follow any overindulgence in
liauor. We heard there was some
trouble in the town, but ! can assure
all readers OF The Herald that none
of the Los Angeles Eagles were con-
cerned in it. The publication in The
Express is a senseless slander upon
the business men Of this city. whose
conduct yesterday was above re-
proach."

SUES ATTORNEY TO
CLEAR ESTATES TITLE
Mrs. Marie de Leonis Attempts to
Secure Contract From
Major Bell

Echoes of the now famous Leonis
estate case were heard in the superior
court yesterday, when Mrs. Marie Es-
against Attorney Horace Bell for the
purpose of quieting title to a large
tract of land
The complaint says that on Septem-
her 20, 1889, Miguel Leonis, her hus-
land, died, leaving an estate valued
at 100000.
The devisees under the will filed a
contest and Mrs. Leonis retained the
late Senator Stephen M White as her
counsel to defend the suit.
1t was agreed between them he should
employ such other counsel as he de-
sired, and the complainant says that
he was compensated for his services.
In January, $780, Mrs. Leonis exc
cuted power of attorney to Laurent
Etchepare, which afterwards was re-
voked.
In June of the same year Senator
White employed Bell to assist him in
the defense of the estate, and it is al
legged that he was compensated for his
services.
1t is asserted, however, in the COM
plant that June 26, $780,, Bell induced
Etchepare to sign a contract employ
ing him as attorney to perform the
same services as rendered by Senator
White for which he was to receive Ii
per cent of the property involved.
When the estate was distributed
Mrs. Leonis received her share, 1867
acres, but the contract held by Attor-
ney Bell has acted as a cloud on the
title.
The plaintiff asks the court to award
her damages in the sum of $500, to-
gether with the contract which is now
in the possession of the attorney.
