RESUME WORK ON
WESTERN PACIFIC
(By Associated Press. J

RENO, March 16.-The welcome
news that construction work is about
to be resumed, full blast, on the
Western Pacific, is indicated by the
fact that local employment agencies
are receiving orders for men for
work on that line in the vicinity
of Beckwith that already aggregate
1000 men.
The financial furry caused sus-
pension of work on this line some
time ago, and the wreck of the Cali
fornia Safe Deposit and Trust Com
pany in which the Western Pacific
had large amount of money de-
posted, it was rumored, would put
the work back indefinitely. But a
short time ago the company deposit
ed close on $3.OOO,OOO in the Bank
of California in San Francisco, and
the news of work being resumed fol-
lowed close on the heels of this an
nouncement.

WASHINGTON, March 16.-The
fortifications bill, carrying a total
appropriation of $S,21O,611, instead
of $98,443,9 925 asked for by the War
Department, was reported today to
the House committee ON appropria-
tions by Chairman Smith of the sub
committee on fortifications. The sub
committee felt that aside from other
that to recommend
an appropriation of $38,OOO,OO0 for

an action which might be reasonably
construed by Japan as an official dec
laration that the United States was
preparing against war with that ma
tion. The appropriations are mostly
for Hawaii and the Philippine Is

RAILWAY MEN
ARE ENVIOUS

CHICAGO, March 16.-The man.
ayers of American railways look with
envious eyes on the railways of Can
ada and Mexico, which seem to be
able to put through great financial
undertakings with considerable ease.
The Canadian Pacific, for example,
had no difficulty in going over to
London and selling $1O,OOO,O00 of
its debenture stock at 102, and those
best acquainted with the facts sav
that had 1t so desired it could easily
have disposed of $10O,0OO,O00 of
such securities on equally favorable
terms.
1t is the same with the Mexican
roads. Plans for extensions and
mergers are being brought to com
pletion there without let or hind
rance of any kind. and negotiations
for capital to carry through plans for
these have been carried through
smoothly. Most OF the roads there
have more traffic than they can
handle expeditiously. and their gross
earnings show no dlminution.

MILLERS, March 16.-Louis ia
meel, former tamale peddler OF
Tonopah, walked into the Office of
DR.. Richards here last night and ask
ed the doctor how much cyanide of
potassium it would take to kill a

ago. Jameel then took a pint bottle
of cyanide of potassium from his
pocket and placing it to his lips,
drained the contents and then fell to

TO Obey The Law

RENO, March 16.-To prevent a
shipment of horses from entering
California without their brands being
registered in this county and without
being examined by the State veter-
marian, carload of horses was
stopped by Sheriff Ferrell at Verdi,
and the railroad officials notified to
send 1t back to Reno for inspection.

before Judge O'Brien today and
show cause why he should not be
held in contempt for refusing to obey
the order of the court when he was
served with subpoena to appear be-
fore the Grand Jury here ON March
9th.
Among the questions that will be
put to Mr.. Vanderlieth today will be
one concerning the Withdrawals
from the bank of the deposits Of Di-
rectors Meyers, Peterson, Brougher
and Woodbury., and also those of the
two daughters Of Director Brougher,
shortly before the bank closed its
doors. Another one will be that con-
corning meeting of the directors
held at the Carson bank in the early
part of March, 1907.
In the matter of investigation, the
Nye County Grand Jury is probing
deep and sitting the matter thor
oughly, and it is expected that they
will show that it was known by many
of the officials of the bank that the
institution was insolvent and pre-
parations were made to close the
doors three weeks sooner than they
did close.

GORDON GIVEN
The DECISION
Especial to the Bonanza


GOLDFIELD, New, March 16.-
The boxing contest between Larry
Gordon and Frank Fields at the Ath-
letic Club here tonight drew a large
and enthusiastic audience. The main
event was spirited exhibition of the
manly art. After the second round
Gordon clearly demonstrated his su-
perior ability, and at the end of the
twentieth round Referee Jack Nc
Donald awarded Gordon the decision
and was warmly applauded by the
sports present. Both suffered con-
siderable punishment. The first pre-
liminary was between Spider Welch
and Young Jeffries. Puddy Grimes
of Tonopah refereed the bout, and it
was a toss up whether Welch, JEFF
ries or Puddy won the decision. The
audience, however, declared that
Puddy was entitled to the St. Pat
rick's day honor. Immediately fol-
lowing the bout Puddy received a
challenge from Tommy Burns at Lon
don, which he has under considera-
tion. The second preliminary be-
tween Kid Irwin and Chalkey Ger
main resulted in a victory for Irwin.
About three hundred Tonopah
sports accompanied by Tonopah's
brass band, went over in a special
train. The majority will return on
various trains today.
