J.\Holland, Lieutenant Durkin and Police Officer Mackey. The company moved in goéd order on the detention- room upstairs. They managed to get into the room, an apartment about tweive fect square, without losing a man, and Sharp commanded the Chinamen .to accompany him. They refused and he grabbed hold of one.

LOS ANGELES, March 5.—In the past few days four crews of engineers began work just east of Los Angeles, making preliminary surveys for the Oregon Short Line Rallroad. It is the intention of the railroad company, as already announced, that the new. road shall enter this eiuy over the tracks of the Southern Paclfic, Dbuilding to a point on that line that has not yet been selected. ‘But lines will be run by the engineers through the inter. vening country to the city, as well as from several points on the Southern Pa- cific_line, including Mojave and Banning, to the present western end of the Oregon Short Line. . There remains but a little more than 300 miles of road bullding to complete the Short Line to Los Angeles, and officials of the road announce that the work will be completed in twelve or not to exceed fifteen months, From Los Angeles to Salt Lake the Ernpnnnd route of the Short } Line will be about 70 miles long, glving, it is elalmed, the Union-Southern Pacific combination the shortest line from here to Chicago, the total being 2240 miles. — ‘Will Captain Stanford Freshmen.

PHOENIX, Ariz, March b5—James Parks, a miner, weil known throughout Arizona and at the time employed by the Copper Queen Company, on Monday night shot and killed his wife and then put a bullet through his own head. They were marrfed about a year ago, Mrs. Pzrks having been divorced from a previous husband. Their marriage proved un- happy, owing to incompatibility of tera- perament. Both stood well in the com- munity and th;\txie was no hint of scandal attaching to either. y Mnrn.

Murder May Follow the Deportation They were taken aboard.the Peru and turned over to the first officer, who had them chained to the stanchions on the starboard side of the ship. Then the ship's doctor started in to do a little plain sewing on them, and when the Peru steamed away from the wharf he was still engaged in his task. The only white man taking part in the'melee who needed surgical ald was Inspector Campbell, who had four stitches -taken in a cut on his head. The Chinamen had evidently prepared to make a most desperate resistance to deportation and would have preferred death. They told the Inspector they | would rather be killed on shore than go to sea, but if they were forced on the Peru they would jump overboard. The first officer said they would not jump overboard unless they took the starboard stanchions with them. When the decision of the Treasury De- partment in this case was announced some days ago the Six Companies held a meeting, and being unable to locate the contractor, decided that Yea. Sam, his partner, should pay to each of the deported Chinamen for the neglect that resulted in their deportation. Yea Sam is therefore confronted with the unpleas- ant dilemna of either "Pungung ug" £4000 or laying himself liable to the delicate | attentions of the highbinders, in such cases made and provided. The names of the unfortunate Chinamen ! are Yen Ah Fook, Lew Fook, Lee/Ching | Yee, Ah Shuch, Dung Koon, Yeés Din, Ching Jung Sing and Sam Fung. They say the deportation is merely a ruse of the canning company’s officials to have them returned to bondage in Siberla. . NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. FALLING HAIR STOPPED.

Special Dispatch to The Call. * CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. | W., WASHINGTON, March 5.—All indi- | cations now point to the passage of a Nicaragua canal bill by the Senate if the question can be brought to a vote. The strong report of the sub-committee | against Parama has influenced many | mémbers and the passage of the bill as @it came from the House is now predictead. A large majority of the Democrats in the Senate favor Nicaragua, and it is said there will be no obstructive tactics. Whtls the Senate is becoming more favorably disposed toward a Nicaragua canal dip- lomatic obstacles have arisen in the way | of the acquisition of American control ot that route. New protocols, authorizing the United States to construct the canal, just be negotiated with Nicaragua and iCOsla Rica. This action is necessary as the result of the discovyery that the pro- | tocols regotiated last spring are no longer {of effect. As Congress swings toward Panama or Nicaragua, so the country controlling the route which seems to be favored insists upon Iimposing harder terms. | Senor Corea, the Nicaraguan Minister, | is expected 4o call upon Secretary Hay to-morrow and initiaje negotiations. Se- nor Corea declined to-day to discuss the matter, but it is stated that Nicaragua has no intention of holding up the United States; that it Is desirous of facilitating the construction of the canal and will | therefore meet the views of the President and Senate. At the same time.it is probable Nicaragua will demand that the U | States pay her a larger sum than is | named in the protocol, which she hoids | has lapsed. | BAND OF INSURGENTS RELEASES A PRISONER People on the Island of Luzon Leave | Their Homes to Save | Life. { MANILA, March 5.—Senor Ampil, Presi- | dente of the town of Cantai, province of | Morong, Luzon, who is well known as an | American sympathizer; and who was re- cently captured by the insurgents, | been rescued from his captors. | Senor Ampil says that the insurgent | force which took him prisoner is an en- | tirely new organization and consists of fifty-five uniformed men, armed with rifles.
