petent evidence, may. in the first instance.
De prosecuted for violating the public
land laws, and, in the second instance, for
exceeding the terms Of the act to regulate
commerce. aimed at determinations in
interstate trade.
1t has been charged although not in for
NAL complaint. hat the Hartman lines in
their operation are as obnoxious to the
Sherman antitrust act as was the Northern
Securities Company, which wa dissolved
by the Supreme Court.
II was the Interstate Commerce Com
mission that FIRST brought to light evidence
that the Union Pacific had got control Of
coal lands in an irregular manner. En-
ployces and officers Of the COMPANY made
entries upon public lands known to be
underlaid with coal, and that upon procuring
patents title was passed to the railroad or
TO its subsidiary coal company. These
facts were adduced in the inquiry into the
complaint that the Union Pacific had refused
cars TO coal companies other than the con-
Germ owned by the railroad.
Testimony was also offered that the
Union Pacific Coal Company dictated the
price OF coal and practically enjoyed a
monopoly, through railway discrimination,
OF the coal business in its field.
In charges filed by F. A. Smith OF Denver
it is alleged that through favoritism in the
land Office in Washington the Union Pacific
got the coal lands in Wyoming. The name
OF W. A. Richards, Commissioner Of the
General Land ONCE, was mentioned in this
connection in a number OF newspapers.
He was called upon by Secretary Hitchcock
some days g to tell what he knew about
the case, but 30 far he has not replied.
Government officials are averse to dis
cussing the Union Pacific land scandal.
1T is under consideration, and it would
manifestly be improper for me to talk
about it,, said Secretary Hitchcock to-day.
Il am looking into it, you may be sure Of
that"
Early in the present month there was
much talk Of the Government making an
inquiry as to whether the Hartman con-
solidation Of railroads is a combination in
restraint Of trade. The belief prevails here
that the wide publicity given to the Union
Pacihc's connection with public lands may
force the Government to run the probe
into the railroad combination formed by
Hartman.

SAN Francisco, Nov. 2s.-There was
much disappointment in Judge Murphy's
court to-day when the Grand Jury failed
TO bring in indictments. The Judge waited
three hours on District Attorney Heney's
promise that several indictments would
be returned.
The Grand Jury was in session all day and
took up the Belvedere Music Hall and dis
orderly house cases as we'll as some crooked
transactions of the Supervisors. Much
testimony was presented, enough for several
indictments for bribery and perjury, but
for some reason Mr.. Heney decided not to
make public the indictments, although il is
believed the jury found several before it
adjourned until Friday.
Mayor Schmitz was formally placed under
arrest this afternoon at Truckee, which is
Just over the California line from Nevada.
Deputy Sheriff Harry Knox served the war
rant. The arrest was made under the in
dictments charging the Mayor with extor-
ton on the French restaurants.
Abe Ruef accompanied Knox. The
Mayors train was due in Truckee at 10
o'clock this morning. but was three hours
late. Ruef gave Sohmitz a hearty greeting.
The Mayor waived the reading of the
warrants. Ruef said to the correspond
ents:
You can say that as the Mayor entered
California he was greeted by beautiful
white snow, emblematio Of purity and his
own innocence, or you can say that his
Homecoming was a frost, and it is a mighty
chilly one at that"
As it has rained heavily all afternoon and
Market street is a sea OF liquid mud the
great reception of Mayor Schmitz tonight
will not be the spectacular event that Ruef
had planned.

To the end of determining exactly

very suddenly here on Saturday last,
the authorities will order a complete
and thorough investigation, and the
result thereof will be given the public
Immediately.
The Negroes body, buried on Mon
day, will be taken up today and care
fully examined by physicians.
The examination of the body will de-
termine the nature and extent Of ale
legged wounds, it having been stated by
various negroes that Holloway had
been badly beaten up.
According to the many rumors of this
kind circulated here, the convict's arm
was broken and other injuries infic-
ted during or after the thrashing Civ
en- HIM Saturday morning. No Gre
dence is placed in such statements.
however, coming from no reliable
source.
One physician, who examined the
body sunday morning, stated to the
Times Recorder that he found no
abraslons upon the head, and that the
negroes neck was not broken, as rumor
had it.
Marks OF the leather strap, however,
were still IN evidence.
Supt. PaschaI stated yesterday that
Holloway had not been inhumanly
treated, and wants full investigation
of the whole matter. 1t is quite likely
that several of the coLvicte, as we'll as
others, will testify regarding the beat
ing and the subst quest death of Hol-
lowsy.
I Munch Holloway, a negro hackman,
was put on the gang Saturday morning
last. He was given a sound strapplng
early in the DAY, but beyond this there
is no evidence at hand that he was tor
tured or inhumanIy treated, according
to the rumors current,

REITERATED UNDER A SHOTGUN
Outrageous Act of Negro Tenant Ne at
Citv

The story of an outrageous act upon
the part of a negro tenant was told yes
terday who, armed with shotgun, or
dered his landlord from the premises.
The negro tenants crop was badly IN
the grass and the owner o: the farm
came with an extra laborer to help
him. This incensed the lazy tenant,
who procured his gun and ordered
both the landlord and hired mau to de-
camp. The bully then realized that he
was up against 1t and decided to leave.
Going by the con yict camp he attempt
ed to persuade one of the zebras to run
away with him, Cf5ring to shoot the
unsuspc citing guard, but the convict
had too much sense to do SO. And this
within rife shot of the courthouse.
