resulted in the unexpected re-Opening
of the suit for the admission of newly
discovered evidence, and a letter. sup
posedly showing bad faith on the part
of the Southern Pacific company, as a
creditor, was introduced.
The demand for the re-opening OF
the case was based on alleged state
ments in the letter from Attorney E. S.
Ives, representing the Southern Paci-
fic, to its auditor, A. d. Mcdonald, in
dicatng plan by the company to ac-
quire the California Development COM
pany and the Mexican Canal company
properties.
Allegations Were also made that the
Southern Pacific sought to work into
the position Of preferred creditor, and
that it was Overtly directing the ex-
penditure of money by the California
company for improvements to the
Mexican property. This was attacked
as trickery inasmuch as the Southern
Pacific company had acquired stock Of
the Mexican company from the Califor-
mia company and would therefore be
benefited. II was also pointed out that
an attachment had been asked against
the Mexican company by the Southern
Pacific in advance of the making Of
the alleged improvements.
Attorney Edward j. McCutcheon Of
fered the main argument, as counsel
for the New Liverpool Salt company, a
substantial creditor of the California
company. He was supported in it by
Attorney w. X. Tuller, who appeared
for the Title Insurance and Trust com
pany. plaintiff in the foreclosure pro-
ceedingS.
Ives, for the Southern Pacific. hotly
retorted that the statement of Nc
Cutcheon anent the letter was reflect
ing on him.

He insisted to Judge Bordwell it was
important to the remaining creditors to
know + money had been spent on the
Mexican property under the direction
of the Southern Pacific.
THE Southern Pacific now claims
the stock of the Mexican company"
he declared.
Judge BOrdwell has only until noon
tomorrow to decide the case, which
involves on this side Of the border the
irrigation of a fertile acreage in the
Imperial valley, valued at millions Of
dollars. He then leaves the bench.

the middle and extreme west yester-
day. The first of the storms ragged
south of Washington For time there
was but one wire working between
Washington and Atlanta, all had been
proslrated by the storm. Next in vio-

during the forenoon there were but
five wires working between the two
cities.

states of Washington and Oregu,.
Hundreds of wires had been prostrat-
ed by the heavy blow there, the tele-
graph companies said.
The south Atlantic coast states were
in the grip of terrific wind and rain
storm which worked havoc with ship
ping and cut off the cities Of Norfolk
and Newport News. All land wires
leading out of the cities were destroy
ed. Before the last wire went down
telegraph operator at Newport News
remarked that the gale was so terrif-
flc that the waters of the James river
were surging up into the lower parts
Of the city with the violence Of a small
tidal wave.
The navy wireless spanked out un-

safety Of torpedo boats in the narrow
seaway.
In this city the gale whipped down
