treatment of Mitchell that the peace
officers approve the deed, but news

him the proper instrument.
"In accomplishing it he seems to
have shown straightforwardness o1

His work was to take life for the

caueed the track, which is on made

passing the spot met disaster.
The engine and first three cars
were overturned. The sleeper and
mail coaches were not damaged.

be deported, we're completely de-
molished. Three of thu Chinese
passengers were killed aud many

The fireman of the train was
killed and the engineer slightly in

brakeman was also among the in
jured.
A wrecking crew was sent from
San Jose and more than a score of
Chinese who were seriously injured
brought to the hospital at San Jose.
They were recently smuggled across
the Mexican border and were book
ed to sail on the flst steamer from
San Francisco for their native land.
Death came in sleep to the Chi.
nese who were killed. They were
jammed in the wreckage. Nearly
every Mongolia in the three coaches
was injnred to a greater or less ex-
tent. Nearly all were unfamiliar
with the English language and this
made rescue work difficult, since
the wounded men were unable to
tell the extent of their injuries.

hospital.
Two light earthquake shocks were
felt at Ills o'clock last night. No
