CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, Feb. 4¢—President Roosevelt will anounce in a few days his decision in the Schley case, and it will ghly unsatisfactory to Rear Admiral 3 notwithstanding a report to the contrary circulated to-@ay. It will em- hatically declare. Rear Admiral Willlam T.

Pr t Roosevelt will also generally approve the unanimous findings of the court, though he may differ on one or two minor points. In announcing this decision the Presi- dent will absolutely support the - po: tion taken by Secretary Long, and will show the country that notwithstanding the ovations given to Rear Admiral Schley by the people of the West and South, he regards as his plain duty. There are some here who are uncharitable enough ieve that Rear Admiral Schley un- rtook the trip for the purpose of im- essing the President with the general thought that he is regarded as the hero | Santiago.

Captain Cook, who commanded the Brooklyn, Washington Rear Admiral Philip, who commanded the Texas, the President read an article | reriod, which had in it as picturesque | written by that officer for the Century Magazine. When the decision is an- unced Rear Admiral Schley cannot »mplain that the President did not give full consideration to all the facts in the case. MORE BODIES ARE FOUND IN THE WRECKED MINE Government Authorities in Mexics Superintend Work Where the Terrible Disaster Occurred. AUSTIN, Feb. 4—A dispatch from Sa- binas, Mex., says the number of known dead in the Hondo mines, near here, has grown to 115 and it is believed that there are at’least twelve more dead bodies in the underground chambers. The task of removing the debris is stu- pendous. The workmen are conducting the search for dead bodies under the di- rection of the Government authorities. To-day five miners were -ound alive in e part of the mine. They were im- ned by falling coal. They had been food and water for more than hours and were in a pitiable n. Most of the dead bodies have been buried.

As for the hordes of white men who were accompaniments 1o the construction of the first line to bind the East and the West together, they spent their money freely, with the accus- tcmed liberalty of all early Californians. Centers of Distribution. successive terminus that was stablished served to be the distributing center for the mines, which then were ‘L‘%’ of the feverish activity of nd®of men. *There was an_enor- mous - teaming business .over ‘the moun- tains. During the period of comstruction of the Central Pacific, and before it was operating, .a statement was.made by a hostile voice, which has never- been con- troverted, that in one year the receipts for freighting over the- Bierras to®'Virginia City, via Placerville, brought in the great sum of $13,000,000. This was.exclusive of return freights and- passenger business. This statement was used to show that the Central Pacific, which was then. de_nounced as the *“Dutch Flat swindle” by its enemies, was really only a scheme to run a railroad ‘out to the mines and secure the profits from freighting to the miners. Every town on the:Central Pacific line in Placer County has a history of great picturesqueness.. - There human nature escaped . the shackles of conventionality and the buoyant spirits of the brightest and‘most daring young men of the land had free play in a theater which nature had provided on_a gigantic scale. As early as June, 1865, the road had been completed to Clipper Gap. In the follow- ing September the line was at Colfax. In | 1866 thirty miles of road over the Sierras | were completed. In 1867 forty-seven-miles were added. -Snowsheds, telegraph lines and puffing construction trains were now a familiar sight among the immemorial lairs of the grizzly bear and the mountain lion. The last mentioned year saw the 14 California, near Verdi. The line has re- mained in its original»location over the snowy heights of the tall Sierras to_this day, unchanged, a period of nearly thirty | five vears. In that period a new genera- taineers has grown up in the Sierras, who have bought Jand, made their homes and established themselves in business. Days of Romance. Although the memory of Californians is | apt to linger with fondness upon the an- ticipations that preceded the actual com- pletion of the first transcontinental rail- road and to dwell upon the thrill” that | came to them when they knew that the old overland rail, across which so many thousands had painfully passed in “prairie schooners,” was banded from end to end with iron and that “the States” were thereby brought immeasurably nearer to them, it is unnecessary to recount the | history of the subsequent doings of the | railroad builders at any great length. | There was a mad, frenzied race east of the Sierras to meet the Union Pacific, which was building westward as fast as possible. Then there came the junction. The meeting of the trains, with the spec- | tacular driving of a golden spike from | California into a tie of California laurel | by Senator Stanford has been pictured. The opening of the Central Pacific road For the views of the late | to traffic between the East and the Gold- | | en Gatc marked the beginning of a new | features as the past had possessed. But there had earlier been exhibited in the overland transit daring and dash that | make the blood still tingle when the story is told, for there comes into view, | rising and falling as a fiery horse spceds | across the plains toward the Sierras on the journey to California, the rider iof the | pony express. He is gaunt, bronzed with | weather to the color of copper, keen-eyed, | fearless of Indians or wild beasts, so bound to his steed by the habit of riding that he might well be a centaur. The first pony mail left Sacramento on the Pacific side and St. Joseph, Mo., to cross the mountains and plains on April 3, 1860. The mail from St. Joseph coming west passed | from rider to rider by way of the South | Pass, Salt Lake, the Humboldt River and | Carson Valley to Sacramento, which it reached on April 13. The news of its | coming was hailed with great enthusiasm. | The California Legislature was in at Sacramento, and both houses adj | in honor of the event and to give rider and mail welcome. It came in just in time for the regular afternoon steamboat, and the horse, rider and mailbag, just as ihey had come to Sacramento, took pass age on the boat and afrived at the wharf at San Francisco on the morning . of April 14. { Pony Express Riders. | Here they were met by an enthusiastic | crowd with bands and torches.

Each | rider usually rode three horse; about seventy-five miles. William F.

Railroad Surveyors at That Point Re- port New Line Reduces Grade. AUBURN, Feb.4.—The news of the Cen- tral Pacific Railroad’s projected change | in _the line of its track through Placer | County, as exclusively given in The Call | to-day, created no little excitement among citizens here, as the local press had con- | tained nothing more than rumors. Placer | County has paid something like $250,000 as a bonus to the railroad, and naturally her | citizens feel indignant at what they weuld | term bad faith. They are loth to believe that the railroad will make any radical | changes in the immediate future. The railroad surveyors, presumably the me corps that operated near Cisco be- fore the storms, have been in the vicinity | of Newcastle the last ten days. They re- | port a gain of eighty feet in the grade in | a nine-mile survey northeast of Rocklin, the starting point. | . Samuel J. Pullen of the firm of Pullen & | Wallace when approached said he didn’t see much to worry over. The projected change would be too expensive, especially that portion above Colfax. ‘W. A. Shepard, editor of the Placer Her- | ald, said: 1 hardly- think it possible that the railroad company intends to make all the changes noted | in The Call. The fact that the various towns en route and the county as well have contrib- uted liberally to the support of.the railroad is little argument with a big corporation. As a rule they do not consult the wishes of any | one but themselves. “However the railroad has | made too many costly improvements along this | line in_the matter of depots, tracks, etc., to make the proposed change in a hurry. In any event I do not think any of the towns from Auburn down will-be entirely cut out should any change be made. As to just where the ‘cutting will commence will depend on the lo- tion of the entrance of the proposed tunnel hrough the Sierras. Nothing can be done until | that is accomplished, and that time is far dis- tant. General Jo Hamilton said: Such a change as contemplated hardly seems business like. It would certainly bring about the establishment of an electric line through | the towns slighted. At the time of the bulld- ing of the Central Pacific, Engineer Judah, who stood at the head of his profession, ex- amined many suggested routes over the Sierras and recommended the present one as the most | practical. | _Mr. Hood, the present chief engineer, | was then a boy in the employ o§ Judah. | . W. C.Conroy, ex-Sheriff of Placer Coun- ty, said: I have not given the matter much thought, but do not believe that the company intehds cutting out the towns along its-line through this county.. I am inclined {o. think that another road may be built to accommodate the traffic. Building a double track road would | probably be impracticable by the present route. | The company would build a new road on an ‘ entirely new survey. b LTS IDEAS ABOUT SURVEY. | L oomis Has Rumor Concerning Point | Where the New Line Begins. LOOMIS, Feb. 4.—Little alarm has been felt, in Loomis regarding the proposed change in the Central Pacific Rallroad | line. Nothing beyond a mere rumor had been heard. The article in to-day’s Call, | however, excited no little interest and dis- | cussion. It is the prevailing opinion among merchants, fruit men and growers that no material damage can be done Loomis in a commercial way. At the worst the town could only be placed in a | position like that of Winters and Vaca- ville, and freight rates could ot be ap- | preciably changed. The distance from | Rocklin is so short that should Loomis be ieft off the line the distance would be too | slight to affect it otherwise than in de- | preciating the value of real estate on the | present site. | In this matter the citizens feel consid- | erable anxiety, and should the report prove true Loomis will enter her vigorous protest with her sister towns in Placer .County. It is understood in Loomis that the Jower end of the survey began here, and that the present and the proposed | lines diverge about half-way between thts | place and Penryn. In this event Loomis | will remain in her present condition. As | citizens of Placer County, looking at the | Guestion on general principles, the people | of Loomis manifest considerable antago- { nism to the charnge, but the danger is not | yet sufficiently probable to cause definite | public expression. e | COLFAX FEELS SECURE. Company Is Running Lines From } Big Tunnel Irrespective of Towns. | COLFAX, Feb. | 4—The citizens ang | the defrayment of the expenses Incurred in his 5 s entertainment w i ry the'sum property owners''of Colfax are ‘mot,| $36:000, o o6 muoh Thereot au iy he sum of alarmed over the preliminary survey now being made by the Southern Pacific Com- pany. The survey for the big tunnel has been completed. It will enter from the east, near the level of Donner Lake, and emerge on _the Yuba, north of Soda Springs, a distance of five miles and S00 feet, After leaving the glant tunnel the line was run for about three miles down the Yub: when, owing to storms, the surveyors’ corps repaired to Newcastle. The company will run lines from the big | tunnel, irrespective of present towns, to ascertain if a line can be found not to ex- ceed a 1 per cent grade or a 4 degree curve. Should the company conclude-to bore the great tunnel, it would take five vears' work and until completed the cut- off line would not be built. Your corre- Spopdent kas it from high authority that there will be no abandonment of the main line to a point east of Colfax, as it now touches the leading towns and passes through the- center of the vast fruit- growing and fruit-shipping districts, — PEPRESENTATIVES TALK OF CUBAN RECIPROCITY President Has Conference With Con- gressmen and Action on the Mat- ter Is Still Doubtful. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—Representa- tives Babcock and Long, Republican members of the Ways and Means Com- mittee, called on President Roosevelt to- day and discussed with him Cuban reci- procity. It was stated to-day by a Republican member of the Ways and Means Commit- tee that there was little further doubt that the committee would report some measure of Cuban reciprocity. Another member of the commlittee expressed the conviction that the rate of reduction would be about 20 or 2 per cent. Other members are of the opinion that definite conclusions as to the course of the com- mittee are not yet wararnted. Chairman Payne says there is no ma terial change in the status of the subject, as the hearings recently held have nof yet been printed, and these are regarded as quite important in assisting toward a solution of the question.

Safe Conducts Required. “In the event. of an affirmative reply it would be necessary for his Britangic | Majesty's Government to hand the Neth- erlands Government three safe conducts ermitting the Boer delegates to proceed reely to Africa, remain there freely for the time -agreed upon and return freely to Europe. It would further be neces- sary for the British Government to allow the use of a telegraphic code with the view of appointing a place. where the delegates could meet the Boer leaders. On their return the Netherlands Govern- | ment could place them in communication with plenipotentiaries appointed for that purpose by his Majesty’s Government, and would willingly undertake to place at the disposal of these gentlemen the ac- | commodation necessary for their meet- | ings. ~ The Netherlands Government would then consider their task at an end. | “It is quite evident that negotiations thus begun might lead to no result. But | the possibility of the contrary is also not( excluded. In this condition of affairs it is desirable to endeavor to open negotia- | tions in the hope that they may be suc- cessful and face a difficulty which exists for all belligerent parties, of taking the first step in this direction, and it might be useful that a third party should un- dertake the matter and serve as an inter- mediary.

W., WASHINGTON, Feb. 4—Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter ot the President,. will attend the coronation of King Edward as the guest of Whitelaw Reid, This de- cision was reached to-day. £ Miss Roosevelt's friends are careful to say that-it-is not to be thought-for-an in- stant that she is going in any other ca- pacity: than that "of a ‘young American girl who has no official standing. what- ever. . When the .invitation came.from Reid, who. is to be the special representa- tive of the President, Mr. Roosevelt was not disposed .to encourage. the idea. The matter was a:subject of much discussion at the White House. The State Depart-'| ment was called in and there has been a lively * correspondence by cable between | ‘Washington and London. | The difficulty lay in baving Miss Roose- velt's private individuality observed if she‘ went to the coronation. There seemed danger that she might be regarded as-the daughter of a ruler and that the Govern- ment of Great Britain might feel that | Miss Roosevelt ought to have honors which will be accorded to the princesses of Rurope. Secreétary Hay has smoothed matters out and Miss Roosevelt will go as any other young lady who is a member of the party of Mr. and Mrs. Whitelaw Reid. 1t is possible that Commander and Mrs. | Cowles, who are Miss Roosevelt's uncle | and aunt, will be of the Reid party. It| is certain that the daughter of the Presi- dent will have several young girls as companions. Among the party will be the | daughters of General Wilson, representa- tive of the army at the coronation. It is said that Mrs. Cushman K. Davis will be one of Mr. and Mrs. Reld's guests. | The President yielded to the desire of his daughter.to attend the coronation be- | cause it.will be a spectacle that any young | lady would be’eager to witness and would remember with pleasure as long as she lived. He finally gave his consent when it was clearly understood that her incog- nito while in.Great Britain should be closely observed officially. BARGES AND CREWS oy MAY HAVE BEEN LOST 1 Thirteen Persons on Board the Boais | Supposed to Have Perished in Storm. 2 NEW YORK, Fet: 4.—There is every reason to believe that three barges, coal laden from Newport News for Boston, have been lost at sea as a result of the storm of Sunday night, and that thirteen persons-have perished. The barges were the Antelope, Belle of pert of the United States army-as-ad-| viser in_the purchase of American horses | for the British arm®. The revelation was | made during a heated debate on the re- mount question, whereupon Lee said: The accredited Office,. Colonel. Wardenop, | representative of the War | the attache at | what knowledge he possessed of the resources | of the country. In the same way I, being mili- | tary attache at Washington, was not informed | that there was any intention of buying horses 1 learned from the Amer- | ican newspapers that British officers had been sent to buy horses, but I was not informed | who they were, nor was I asked to give them | such assistance as my position impligd I was competent to give. At the time I had the op- | portunity, through the good will of a high official, of getting the services of the chief horse expert of the United States army as ad- | viser. I cabled the suggestion to the War Office, but 1 received no reply. The whole debate on this question in | the House of Commons - causes wide- spread indignation, which is as evident | among the strongest supporters of the | Government as among®the members of | the opposition. The Ministerial press vi- | clously charges the War Office with ab- solute incompetency, if nothing worse, | and demands a searching inquiry, hint- ing at the possibility that the more im- portant departments of the War Office make no more creditable showing than the remount department. Salisbury May Retire. | It is said the retirement of Lord Salis- | bury from office will be coincident with the end of the South African war. The St. James Gazette to-day claims it has the highest authority for saying: The Premier has fixed the restoration of | peace in South Africa as the appropriate mo- | ment to resign office. If the war is ended | Lord Salisbury will retire at the conclusion of | the present Parliamentary session, but it is his present intention to retain his post until peace is_accomplished. In his weekly report to the War Office Lord Kitchener states that for the week ended February 1 twenty-nine Boers were killed, six wounded, 142 taken prisoners | and forty-eight surrendered. An Invitation to Kruger. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—Representative Cochran.of Missouri to-day introduced in the House the following resolution: Resolved, By the Senate and the House, that the Hon. Paul Kruger, President of the South African republic, is hereby invited to visit the United States as the guest-of the country at such time as may suit his convenience. For sary, is hereby appropriated out of amy money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated. Adjutant General Corbin was questioned to-day in regard to Major Lee's statement | in Parliament about having been offered the services of the chief horse expert of the United States army in securing horses in this country for South Africa and said that this was the first that he (Corbin) had heard of it. What he did know as a fact wi that there had been no corre~ ‘e on the part of the adjutant general’s office with Lee or any one else to warrant the statement that the United States had assisted the British operation in South Africa by the shipment of horses or any other way. Moreover, General Corbin said, he did not know what.was meant by the expression ‘“‘chief horse ex- pert”’ there being no such office in the United States military service. It is sugs gested that Lee referred to one of the large army contractors who supply the United States cavalry with mounts. —_— INDIANS KILL RANCHER AND BURN HIS HOUSHE Remains of an Arizona Pioneer Are Found in the Ashes of His i Home.
