The Central Arizona Railway Company Wants to Join the New Road. FIVE OUTLETS IN THE EAST. Offers to Be Made to San Fran- cisco, San Diego and Salt Lake. The Central Arizona Railroad Company will probably in a few days make a bid for connection with the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railroad, basing the advocacy of their proposition on the fact that theirs, being a north and south line, crossing five railroads east of the Sierras, can give as many connections with the East, and so solve the question of getting competition in Eastern communities. Wells Hendershott, who is the attorney for the Central Arizona Railway Company and for the Hudson Reservoir and Canal Company of Arizona, allied corporations, is in town, and will be followed on Satur- day by ex-United States Senator John Martin of Kansas, who is the president of the canal company. Their mission here is to see what can be done in the way of get- ting this city, either through the people or the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railroad and the city of San Diego, to join with their people .and the people of Salt Lake in putting the road through. The road, as proposed, is to run from Salt Lake down through the center of Arizona to Nogales on the Mexican border, forming there a connection with the road from that point down to Guaymas and from the Superstition Mountains to Yuma. The offers that will be made are in- definite as yet, but it is proposed that the ities of Salt Lake, San Diego and San ancisco be interested, and that in the | road San Diego represent one-fifth, San Francisco one-fifth, Hudson Reservoir and | Canal Company one-fifth, the lumber in- | terest one-fifth’ and Salt Lake one-fifth | each having a representative in the boar | of directors or possibly trustees to see that | each of the different localities would be | represented in case it was for their interest in the construction ef the road. Mr. Hendershott said yesterday that the question is being agitated in Salt Lake, where they are anxious to get a connection with San Diego, and that the matter would soon_be brought to the attention of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce and | the San Diego Board of Trade, San Diego | of all cities in the State being most inter- ested in getting competition in Eastern connections. Speaking yesterday of the proposed road, Mr. Hendershott said: That the railway company is a matter of the most importance to the Pacific Coast will be readily seen by reference to the maps. the reference to which, and the present eondition of affairs, show that the coast has always been subservient to the Southern Pacific Kailway Company. It will be seen that by the building of & Toad from Salt Lake to Nogales and from the Superstition Mountains to Yuma that an outlet oi the coast may be had with five dif- ferent railroads now in active operation con- | necting with the East. If the San Joaauin | Valley Railroad could connect with this north | and south road it would seem tnatit was a | matter of more than ordinary importance o | not only the city of S8an Francisco, but San Diego &nd Los Angeles as well. This road would give direct connection with the Union | Pacific, Denver and Rio Grande, Chicago and | Rock Island, Atlantic and Pacific and the St. | Louis and San_Francisco, which will probabl | be built from the Indian’ Territory into Alb | querque (which is in fact the Atlantic and Pa- | eific), thus giving the San Franciseo and San | Jeaquin Valley Railroad the advaniage of | situation could they intersect this road from | Salt Lake to Nogales. Itisa well-known fact that the people of San | Diego and the people of San Franclsco have | heretofore been handicapped with reference to | Eastern roads having a terminus on the coast. The question would therefore be as to whether | the building of this road from Salt Lake to | Nogales and from the Superstition Mountains to Yuma would be of benefii to the coast. As to the question whether the Central Ari- | zona Railway Company would construct its | road over and upon a route that would bea paying one, we have only to call your atten- | tion to certain facts that now exist. "Commenc- | ing from Mildred, in the Territory of Utah, and | running f there to Lees ferry, the road | would mecessarily traverse & country con- taining large iron deposits, and these iron | deposits are said to be not excelled anywhere in the United States. A little south, and prior to crossing Lees ferry, there is in addition to the iron deposits extensive coal depositt sec- ond to none in the United States. Starting south from Lees ferry and from Flagstaff, it would traverse about eighty miles of virgin forests, the finest pine timber forest in its en- tirety between the two oceans. This forest is an islandjof timber with a tim- berless country for from three to five hundred miles in all directions fromn Flagstaff, and it | must be the source of large supplies of that variety to the country and region which is geographically tributary to it. e line of road already graded extends through this timber country. A branch line is contemplated to afford an outlet for the products of the upper Verde Valley of 200,000 acres of arable land. Also for the mineral out- put of the mountain range of undevelopgd bodies, one of which bodies is now said by those having made personal investigation to have $20,000,000 worth I copper ore in sight. The agricultural valley above mentioned and 'hoqgru deposits would be & source of immense traffic, Commencing from Flnfnufl and running south leaving the timber forest the line wonld er a fertile region encircled by mountains, rsed by running streams and capable of tra raising every product of the temperate zone. | Gold and silver abound in the mountains. This road, running down to the Diversion dan, as contemplated by the Hudson Reservoir and ' Canal Company, 1200 feet above the mouth of the Verde, a wuter power is created, | the lar, in the West, and arrangements are ! already made for the railroad to have facilities With reference to this Water power. | _ The 1,100,000 acres of land lying in the Salt | Ri Valley which is subject to entry under | the desert land sct is being rapidly taken up by persons desiring to locate upon the public domain, and it is the opinion of those con- versant with the matter that there will not be | one single acre of it left unoccupied and coming in under the irrigation enterprise of the Hudson Reservoir and Canal Company within two years; this, taken together with the immense coel, iron and lumber interests will afford prospects unequaled by eny other contemplated railroad. MAKIE PAYKE, FERGUSON The Missionary From Southern California at the St. Paul Mission. | A Solemn Warning to Those Who Have Not the Spirit of Holiness. Mre. Manie Payne Ferguson, a mission- ary from Los Angeles and Bouthern Cali- fornia, conducted the service last evening in St. Paul Mission, on Mission street, between Fifth and Sixth, where for some time past revival services have been held. There was a large congregation, and it was an earnest one, which took a lively in- terest in the sermon preached by the visiting missionary. Mrs. Ferguson, a woman a little above the medium height, somewhat stout and attired in 8 very plain suit of black, is a fluent speaker, never at a loss for words to express her ideas. “I know but very few faces here,” she said, “but I wisn to say that I will conduct this service after my own fashion. As I cannot call any one by name 1 will ask some brother who is in touch with the Lord and with the throne to lead in prayer.” Mrs. Ferguson took for her text the story of the ten Virgins who went to watch for the coming of the bridegroom. This the preacher said applied to people of the present time, to those who are wait- ing for the second coming of Christ. The lamp, she said, was the heart, and the oil was the spirit of holiness that burned within it. She wanted to know how many there were who had the lamp but not the oil, and in a most fervent manner urged her hearers to fill those lamps with oil, so as to be ready to meet the bridegroom, who is coming in’a little while. By the bride- groom she said she meant Christ. “Why,” said the preacher, “‘I was in my little room in Los Ingeles afew days since washing my hands, when I looked out of an east window and saw a bright light. Ina me- ment I thought that Christ was coming. I was ready to meet him, and was so glad that I could have jumped out of that win- dow. I only cite this to show that we should be ready at all times to receive the Lridegroom, who is surely coming.” The force of her sermon was to show that those who are not prepared will like the foolish virgins be shut cut not from the feast, but from eternal salvation and joy everlasting in the new Jerusalem. In giving her testimony after the ser- mon, g{m. ‘erguson said that she would not give a nickel for a deed to_the city of San Francisco if she did not feel that she was certain of going into the presence of Jesus. “I would not mind having the Palace Hotel asa place to hold revival services in, but I care not for the pomp and vanities of the world. AIlT want is something to eat and something to wear, but I am not very particular as to either. 1 haye been asked to_accept presents, but have always refused them, asI have no use for them. I want Jesus,and say to all, ‘Take the world, but give me Jesus.’ Doas I have done. Get full of the spirit of Jesus and you'll have a camp meeting in your hearts for all time.” During the evening many arose and gave testimony of their belief in the coming of the Lord in a little while. This evening Evangelist H. Lawson of Santa Clara_will preach, and to-morrow nignt Dr. P. Brett Morgan will address the congregation. TO-MORROW'S AUCTION, Adolph Sutro’s Lots on Ashbury Heights Will Be Sold by Von Rhein & Co. The peremptory auction of seventy-five lots on Ashbury Heights, the property of Mayor Sutro, will take place at the sales- rooms of Von Rhein & Co., 513 California street, at 12 o‘clock to-morrow. By the terms of the sale only one fifth cash is re- quired. The lots range in size from 25x100 to 40x100 and afford an unsurpassed view of the ocean and bay in the distance, and the city and Golden Gate Park at the foot of the heights. Itisthought thatin time the Eighteenth-street branch of the Joost electric line, which passes along the entire Ashbury-street front of this property, will be a favorite route to Golden Gate Park on account of the splendid view. DICK HEATH'S REPUTATION A Large Number of Fresno Residents Testify That It Is Bad. His Sult Agalnst the “Examiner” Draws a Throng of Spectators. The suit of Richard Heath against the Examiner for libel in having published an account of a fracas at the Grand Hotel bar in which it was alleged that Heath was concerned continued to attract a large at- tendance at Judge Hunt's courtroom yes- terday. One of the attractions was the presence of well-known counsel, Garret McEnerney and Grove Jahnson appearing for the defendant, while the plaintiff was represented by W. H. L. Barnes. Almost the whole of yesterday was con- sumed in the taking of testimony for the defense showing the general bad reputa- tion of Plaintiff Heath. A large number of witnesses from Fresno, some of whom figured in the famous Heath trials at that place, were subpenaed, and their evidence was practically unanimous that in a gen- eral way Heath's name did not command respect in their midst. After C. M. Coe, an Examiner reporter, had told his story of the recital of the ac- count complained of the following wit- nesses were examined: W. W. Machean, Mrs. L. J. Craycroft, C. J. Craycroft, J. W. Douglass, L. Burkes, Albert Dilley, C. W. Garrett, W. Shaw, M. S. Rose, L. fiuns, J. W. Shanklin, F. 8. Cowan, Taylor Albipn, F. J. Burleigh, 8. 8. Croucher, 8. C. St. John, F. T. Hilton, B. W. Doyle. All these witnesses hailed from Fresno and all, with the exception of F. S. Cowen, a_ hotel-keeper, who did not know much about Heath, testified that the latter’s repu- tation for peace and sobriety was bad. The monotony of the evidence was only varied by tilts between the op&m ny counsel. At- torneys Johnson and McEnerney retained Detective C. J. Stillwell in close attendance throughout the day. Most of the witnesses knew that Heath bore a bad reputation and cited their knowledge of his associates and habits. Under cross-examination by General Barnes they were often hard pressed to sgecily the exact persons who told them these things and the exact dates and places of the information communicated. Among his associates were mentioned John Daly, Benator Goucher, Reel Terry, Billy Levi- son and others. It was endeavored to show that he had been concerned in dis- reputable fights and bad been seen in ques- tionable places, but not all the facts songht to be introduced before the jury were held relevant by the court. g A. B. Henderson, managing editor of the Examiner, was called to testify to the high reputation of C. M. Coe as a newspaper man. General Barnes waived cross-ex- amination and the case went over to this morning. HIS DEFENSE THE TRUTH. Charles M. Shortridge Answers the Libel Suit of J. G. Chase. In the case of John G. Chase, a contractor, against Charles M. Shortridge, proprietor of the 8an Francisco Cavr, for libel the de- fendant yesterday filed answer. He admitted the publication of the arti- cle complained of in the CALL of February 8 last, and aenied that it was false or un- Erivileged, or that to his knowledge and elief it wronght the plaintiff any damage. The defendant specifically denied that the article “‘belonged to a series of articles at- mckinfi the order of Foresters,” as com- plained. Furthermore the defendant dectared that every portion of the alleged libel was true. The attorneys for the defendant are John E. Richards and Delmas & Shortridge. THE NEW AMBULANCE. It Will Go Into Public Service This Morning. The ambulance presented to the city by Mrs. Herman Oelrichs and Miss Virginia Fair will go into service at 10:30 o’clock this morning. After that it will be on call from 7 A. . till 7 P. & each day, but only for emergency cases. It will be kept at the Park-avenue veterinary hospital, op- posite the Receiving Hospital. 8o far no ambulance surgeon has been appointed, but meantime when there is any emergency call one of the hospital sur- geons will accompany the ambulance.

The eleventh semi-annual exhibiticn and rose show of the California State Floral Society will be held in the maple and marble rooms of the Palace Hotel on May 2,3 and 4. Great preparations are being made for the exhibition, both by the mem- bers of the society and those who ave en- thusiasts on the subject of rare and beauti- ful garden and hothouse plants. While the roses will be the leading fea- ture of the show hundreds of other flowers will be exhibited. The committee of ar- rangements—composed of Professor Emory E. Smith of Palo Alto, Mrs. Austin Sperry of 2100 Pacific avenue, Mrs. Helen A. A. Cross of 718 Waller street, Mrs. Amos Me- cartney of Alameda and Mrs. Orville D. Baldwin of 3700 Washington street—held a meeting yesterday and perfected many of the preliminary arrangements. The committee is highly gratified by re- ceiving twenty-five applicntions for space at this early day, as it is not usual for ap- plications to come in until just before the exhibition opens. It is believed that altogether there will be between seventy-five and eighty exhi- bitors,each of whom will present many vari- eties of flowers and plants, Professor Smith stated that the society expects to present a vast number of new varieties of roses and other flowers this year. The table and window decorations already promised will indeed be beautiful features of the show. The secretary reported that at present there are over 200 active mem- bers of the society, and the monthly meet- ings are largely attended. A few yearsago the society was considerably in debt but now nearly all the debts have been liqui- dated. The ladies of the committee state that they have about 3000 square feet of room for exhibition purposes, and even with this space they do not expect to have any room to spare. After some discussion it was decided to adopt rules and regulations to govern the competitions and show as were enforced at previous shows. Premiums amounting to several hundred dollars will be given and the following pre- mium list was adopted : A—Cut flowers (open to amateurs): Roses, lary and best variety, $1 second largest and best variety, twenty-five best variety, $ ; TOSes, best variety, $5; roses, hy! perpetual, in- el\ldlllF tea, largest and bestcollection,$7 50; roses, largest and best collection introduced since January, 1892, the society’s ribbon; car- nations, largest and best coliection, $7 50; carnations, second largest and best collection, $5; carnations, twelve best and distinct varie- ties, $3; pelargoniums, best and largest col- lection cut biooms, §7 50; pelargoniums, se ond best and largest collection cut blooms, geraniums, largest and best collection, eraniums, second largest and best collection, | pansies, best collection, best collect tion cut flowers, varieties exhibited singly, $10; second best collection cut flowers, $7 50; sweet peas, best collection, not less than ten varieties, $5; sweet peas, second best collec- tion, not less than six varieties, $3; clematis, largest and best collection, $5; largest an best collection of tuberous rooted and bulbous flowers, §7 50; best collection of hardy herba- ceous flowers, $7 5 Open to professionals—Roses, largest ana best varlety, $15; roses, best collection, twenty-five varietiés, $12 50: roses, hydrid_perpetual, in- cluding tea, largest and best collection, $7 50; carnations, largest and best collection, $12 50; arnations, twelve best, distinet varieties, $3; ‘\’chrgonmms, best and largest collection cut looms, $12 50; geraniums, largest and best collaction, $! nsies, largest and best col- lection, $3 t peas, largest and best col- lection, not less than twenty-five varieties, $8; olematls, largest and best colleetion, rhodo- dendrons, largest and best collection cut blooms, $10; largest and best collection tuber- ous and bulbous cut flowers, 7 50; best col- lection cut flowers, varieties exhibited singly, 17 50.
