NEARLY SHOT OFFICER

GOLDFIELD, New, Feb. 25.-In at
tempting to disarm Frank Woodward.
an opium fiend of this city, Robert
Woodruff, deputy sheriff of Esmerelda
county, had a very narrow escape from
death. He grappled with the opium
fiend and was endeavoring to wrest
the weapon from him when Woodward
turned the gun towards his own head
and pulled trigger. The bullet
missed Woodward's face and struck
Woodruff on the check, injuring him
slightly. Before the fiend could fire
a second shot the gun was taken from
his hand. Woodward's father is quite
a prominent mine owner of Goldfield.

OVER INCORPORATION


CARSON, New, Feb. 25.-Editor
Booth, Of the Tonopah Bonanza, ar
rived here today with a delegation
who will take up the fight Tuesday in
the senate against the bill providing
for incorporation of the southern Ne
cada mining camp. Editor Branson,
of the Tonopah Sun, already heads a
"pro-;ncorporation' crowd here.
Senator eddie, who, after signing the
petition asking the legislature for in
corporation, now opposes the measure,
claims it has been threatened that if
he does not support the bill he will
never receive the nomination for
United States senator.
Oddie stated yesterday that he sign
ell the petition when the board OF
trade committee assured him that no
one in camp opposed it, but when the
bill was introduced in the assembly
here Oddie received hundreds of tel
ograms purporting to come from some
Of the largest property owners of To
nopah, protesting against the passage
Of the bill in the senate. Oddie now
favors a referendum vote, leaving the
incorporation to a vote of the resi-
dents there at the popular election.

noss Clark, according to a wire receiv.
ed here, announced in San Francisco
saturday that the Las Vegas and To.
nopah Railroad company is composed
entirely OF senator w. A. Clark and
his friends, and that, while it is being
bullt as a feeder Of the Salt Lake and
Los Angeles road, in which Hartman
forced the Montana senator to sell
him a half interest, the Southern Pa.
chic magnate has no interest in it.
The Las Vegas and Tonopah is al

seventy-one miles north Of here. It will
enter Tonopah eventually.
Brock IS read connects with the

feeder of that system, Notwithstanding
reports that hartman has not always

But whether his road or Clark

ANOTHER RAILROAD BILL

CARSON, New, Feb. 25.-Dissats

introduce the railroad bill. hereby
the honor between the two
parties, the Republicans are preparing
another measure along the same lines
as the Boyd Syphus railroad commits
sion bill, and they announce that IL
VIII be introduced in the senate
about Wednesday.
Caucuses have been held, but all at
tempts at a joint meeting of the leg
isiators of the two parties have been
futile. The Democrats have ratified
the railroad commission bill. and II 10
believed that many of the Republi-
cans are willing to do SO, but are in
Hueneed against the measure by other
members of The party who are friends
OF the railroads and who have agitat-
ed the party feeling matter.
The resolution which prohibits the
attendance OF lobbyists in the capitol
halls LAS not prevented the railroad
agents from mlxirg with the assembly
men and senators in the life about
town. A few nights G Chief Coun-
sci Whittemore of the Clark railroad
gave a dance, invitations being sent
to practically every one in the city.
He did not deny hat he footed the
bill.

IF in consideration of the American
vice consul's assidious attentions to his
family at his country house the Ameri-
can consulate needs guarding in your
opinion. although he was present and
it was not guarded an hour ago, l have
no objection to your detailing a force

the party must have no firearms and
nothing more offensive than clubs or
slaves for this function.

Crosswell was delighted that the work
was done without cost. If your excel
lency should remain long enough, I am
sure almost all the private owners
would be glad of the services of the

the city is adequate for the protection
of private property. may remind your
excellency that not long ago it was
discovered that thieves had lodged in
and pillaged the residence of some
New York millionaire during his alb
sence in the summer; but this would
not have justified a British admiral

WANT swETTENHAM RECALLED
Jamaicans Highly lncensed Against
Governor.


Kingston, Jamaica, Jan. %. - The
publication in the Daily Telegraph OF
Governor Swettenham's letter to Rear
Admiral Davis has greatly intensified
the resentment of the residents
against the governor for rebuffing the
tenders of American assistance, and
there is a movement on foot here to
demand the recall of the governor.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press sought Governor Swettenham
and spoke to him of the Davis Incl
dent The governor said that he had
not invited Rear Admiral Davis to land
sailors. Asked if he endorsed the
action taken by Rear Admiral Davis,
the governor replied:
THAT is a matter between myself
and Rear Admiral Davis, to whom
must refer you"
The governor said that his reference
in his letter to Rear Admiral Davis to
a tramp pillaging the house of a New
York Millionaire was merely a jocular
parallel.
Many bodies are still being recov-
cred and cremated, and it is believed
the fatalities will reach a total Of

coaches were demolished, the engine
was hurled 90 feet and the passengers
were blown to pieces, consumed by
fire or rescued in an injured condi-

DRYDEN FIVE VOTES SHORT
Jersey U. S. Senator Failed of Re,
Election On First Ballot.


Trenton, N. J., Jan. 2S.-The legis-
lature is deadlocked on the United
States senatorship. Senator Dryden,
who is a candidate for reelection. re-
ceived the votes of the SO Republicans
who participated in the caucus Mr.
Dryden received - votes in the senate
and "a in the house, or eight short of
the full Republican strength in both
houses.
Senator Dryden seems to realize now
what has been proclaimed for some
time, that the people of New Jersey
demand a representative at Washing
ton who is not allied with corporate
interests. He is decidedly crest-fallen
and makes no attempt to hide his feel
ings of disappointment.
