which is most frequented by negroes,
and for a time seemed to hold the
crowd at bay.
The police reserves were called out
and will hold the situation until troops
can be mobilized. The mob seemed to
lack leadership, and this doubtless pre-
vented greater slaughter.
At 1880 this morning reports are be-
ing received from the outskirts of the
town of rioting and negroes being
killed and driven from their homes
Rumors have it that at least twenty
five to thirty or more negroes have
been killed here, but it is impossible
at this time to confirm these reports.
All is quiet in the central portion of
the city at present but knots of people
are standing on the street corners, ap-
awaiting developments.

nounced their determination to land.
officer King Of the Los Angeles police
force, who happened to be at Catalina
on his vacation, was rowing about in
the harbor. He approached the steamer
and took five newspaper men on board.
The boat then started for the shore
and the officers drew up for the attack.
A small boat put out from the wharf,
and one of the Banning officials stated
that anyone from the San Diego would
land at his peril.
Newspaper Men Land
The newspaper boat circled the har-
Dor, going close in shore while the pho
tographers took pictures of the watt
ing crowd. Then 1t went to the Ban
ming wharf.
There Hancock Banning. Attorneys
Sperry and Trask and several officers
met them and invited them to land.
That was the first boat load from the
San Diego.
In the meantime the San Diego had
anchored in the harbor and a small
boat carrying a number of the male
passengers pushed off. Like a flash
all was excitement.
The boat made slowly for a point
just to the east of the town, just above
where the wire fence had been put.
But the officers were there before
them, and when the first man leaped
ashore he was warned to keep away
from the Banning property He made
a remark to the effect that he wanted
to mail letter. The second man made
a similar. remark, and the officers did
not know exactly what to do.
Most of them were cholos sworn in
under Constable Cline, according to
their statements, and their presence
only served to anger the invaders.
Rough and Tumble Fight
The third man to land happened to pe
w. B. Moody, second mate of the San
Diego. Moody tilted his hat on one
side of his ruby locks and remarked in
a rich brogue that he had a letter to
mail to Mr.. Banning.
The particular piece of mail was a
postal bearing a picture of a braying
jack.
Thomas whitley, a San Diego dock
man, acting as deputy constable
couldn't think of anything else to do
about that time, so he hit r. Griffin
the San Diego's agent. Griffin was
knocked to his knees but he came up
with q rush.
A dozen men grabbed and held him,
and Whitley turned his attention to
Moody.
The mate was grinning with the look
of fight printed in every line of his
countenance, and Whitley made the
mistake of trying to smooth out the
grin with hard swing
The swing wrapped around the Irish |
mans head as Moody ducked under it |
and hit Whitley i'll the stomach with
his head.
For moment there was a general
hgnt and the men charged forward |
and backward.
Ihen the others separated and Moody
and Whitley closed again. Back and
forward they struggled until Moody
threw his heavier antagonist into the
water.
He tripped and both walowed about
IN the surf, striking and beating each
others faces.

Mr.. Banning arose to the occasion.

Banning, that any of the ladies pres
ent who so desire enter the island and
stay as long as they want. We make
no opposition to them, and they NAV
go and come as they please on any
part of the island"
The women refused to visit the island
unless they were allowed escorts.
In the meantime the situation had
become rather strained.
The invaders had become insistent in
their demands, and Mr.. Banning abso-
lutely refused to permit landing.
Strong language was used by both
sides, and at last threat to use fire.

In a second the men were fighting

Then Mr.. Banning left and his officers

assisting in landing passengers.

The women then all went on shore
and there were only about thirty men

the fight and he finished strong. He
managed to wiggle his portly form

that the reform force whom he called
"kickers" reminded him OF the cell

was never known whether he was
braying because he was kicking or
kicking because he was braying.
Inasmuch as their object seemed
to be an immediate reformation of
the entire world they were hopeless
ly beyond argument. Cannon said
the best course for a sensible man
to pursue was to leave them alone.
This is an important campaign, he
added and we have enough to take
up all of our attention with things
that are going to happen right now
without bothering about THINGS that
can't be mended or things that are
going to happen two years from now.

i'-ft--
Engineer Thompson Of the Rail
Road Commission Makes
Report on F. W. & D. C.
HIS recommendations


Austin, Texns, Sept. 14.-Engineer
Thompson OF the railroad commission
who was sent, following complaints
OF accidents and delays OF passenger
trains on the Fort Worth & Denver
City, to investigate, has reported TO
the commission.
He finds that trains cannot make
published schedules, that tho more
serious Of recent accidents were not
chargeable to bad track conditions,
but that the track has not been in
condition, causing unsatisfactory SER
vice. The officials, he says, have
made efforts to operate nthe side
Of safety.
He finds fault with the passenger
service, but says complaints should
be directed at this rather than at any
danger.
The present condition of track and
roadbed, he says, is caused by oxces-
sive rains, heavy equipment, unus'
'ual tonnage and in places an insus-
ficient number of ties and light rails
on dirt roadRd He says the Off
Gals are doing all possible to remedy
matters, and that all laborers that
can be secured are employed, but wet
weather has operated against sue
cess. He blames the company Tor
not having foreseen this condition
and for not having provided proper
ballast. The company proposes to
ballast the entire road, and a sched-
ule was shown him, wherein $S72,-
4S5, It is shown has been set aside
for the work Large expenditures
are contemplated for improvements
in yards and terminals, including
5000, 900 in Fort Worth. The roll
ing stock and equipment are founG
first-class and station buildings gem
orally sufficient; but some must
soon be enlarged. He makes the
following recommendations:
1. The replacing Of all Sc and
5S-lb steel rail with a heavier rail
2. The ballasting of the entire
line, but more particularly those poi
tons from Fort Worth to Decatur,
40 miles; from Bellevue to Henriet-
ia. 16 miles; from Wichita Falls toI
oklaunion, 40 miles; from Goodnight
to Pullman, S5 miles.
The remainder of the road with
here and there few CARLOAD of ball
last can DO made to safely carry traf-
fic until the first portions mentioned
are completed.
8. The renewal Of from 10 to 10
per cent Of the ties on the average,
over the entire road.
4. Reduction and Encouragement
of present passenger train schedules
to such an extent that until the bet
terments suggested and proposed are
completed, these trains will be able
to approximately as least run ON
their published time.
