N spite of all denials, and in spite of columns of matter offered as proof that The Call’s prophecies could not come true, The Call's predictions as to the changes in the Southern Pa- cific service are being verified with each vacancy, and most recently by the three changes that have just taken place— the resignation of J. A. Fillmore, which The Call has been predicting for months; the appointment of J. M. Herbert as his successor, which The Call has been pre- dicting nearly as long, and the appoint- ment of E. H. Fitzhugh as assistant to President Hays, which The Call has been predicting for weeks past, and in spite of the fact that every one else was fully sure that Fitzhugh had a place some- where among the heads of the depart- ments picked out fof him. There are certain methods of newsgath- ering which are always reliable and ef- fective, and in adhering to these methods The Call has all along been fully advised of the condition of things within the great corporation that controls the West. It was early aware of the intended removal of Fillmore, either by resignation or dis- charge, and it was advised of the name of his successor almost as soon as he had been decided upon.

In a little' circular is- sued under the signature of Charles M. Hays, president of the company, it was announced to all concerned that ‘“Mr. E. H.

QOn June 20 the statements made by The Call during the preceding two months were crystallized into the definite an- nouncement that J. A. Fillmore, so long connected with the Southern Pacific, was to follow Jack Wright from the com- pany’s service, and that his place was to be taken by J. M. Herbert. Yesterday, a month later, a circular was issued from the office of J. Kruttschnitt, fourth vice president of the company; which an- nounced that: ‘“Effective this date, Mr. J. M.

R W " Spectal Dispatch to The Call BAKERSFIELD, July 9.—At the Mount Breckenridge saw mllls and logging camp, forty-five miles from this city, Yung Fook. a Chinese cook, while crazed from oplum this " afternoon stabbed Mrs. G. C. Ki ney, wife of the foreman of the mills daughter and two or three of the lo#g ‘Within a few minutes after he had com- mitted the crimes his lifeless body was hanging from tha limb ef a tres high above the heads of the infuriated men who had witnessed the stabbing. The tragedy occurred shortly after the noon hour. The loggers, mill hands and teamsters, who were eating their midday meal, noticed that the cook was acting in a peculiar manner. He was surly, but as the men finished eating he walked quietly Into the kitchen. The men wers goon out in front of the dining house, | smoking and chatting, when they heard the screams of the women in the homse. In 2 moment Mrs. Kinney rushed through the front door, her face cut to the boune over the right k and her clo covered by blood.

As soon as the em of the plac realized what had happened they started for the Chinese, but he waved a bloc butcher knife in the air and rushed aim- lessly around the dining room. He pre- | sented such a formidable appearance th the men backed into the yard. After a mament’s consultation - they decided to tush into the house in a body. The ( | nese, not expecting such a sudden me was taken unawares, but although he thrown almost from his feet by the assault he held the knife firmly in hand and with an almost superhuman ef- fort wrenched himself free of the loggers. | Before he could be got under control he had stabbed slightly two or three of the men. Finally one of them siruck Yung Fook on the head and rendered him un- front door by the his | conseious. | Without a moment's hesitation and be- | fore the Chinese was given time to regain consclousness, in order that he might realize that with his life he was about to | pay the penalty for his crime, a rope was | tastened around his neck and he was car- ried hurriedly to a nearby tree. As the men. who ‘were themselves half crazed with anger. pulled on the rope, which had been thrown over a limb, the unconscious man swung high in the air. The cook's body was left hanging to the tree. Those who had been wounded were attended by those who had ass hing. Messenger Brings the News. One of the employes of the place sad- dled a horse and rode the forty-five miles isted In the lym into this city fn about three hours. He at once renorted to Mr. Doherty, proprietor of the Union Lumber Compa , which has its lumber prepared at the Moiunt Breek- enridge mills. After giving a graphic de- scription of the tragedy to his employer, he engaged Dr. J. L. Carson to go to the scene to attend to the wounded, all of whom will recover. The messenger then procured a fresh horse and returned to camp. - Sheriff Borgwardt and a posse accom- panied by Coroner Buckreuse and Deputy District Attorney Dorsey, left immediately for the mills. In all probability many ar- | rests will be made. It is said that the body will be brought to this city, where an inquest will be held, with the object of at- tempting to fix the responsibility for the lynching. While the messenger was of the opinion that there was no regret expressed over the fate of Yung Fook, because of his unwarranted assault, It is sald there were a few in the number who rebelled agatnst hanging him without allowing him time to regain congciTusness. Mrs. Kinney is unable to account for the cook’s assault. It ald that she was taken un es by Yung who seemed to become violent very suddealy. {'The names of the loggers who were stabbed could not be got from the messen- | ger, who even failed to feave his rame with those to whom he had repotted the | tragedy. If any arrests be made, the pris- oners will be lodged in the County Jail in this clty.
