THE RAILROADS.
The San Gabriel Valley
Rapid Transit.
The Road Has Been Placed in
Thorough Repair.
The Travel to the Valley will be
Resumed Regularly Today.
The Pasadena Branch to be Commenced
Soon—The Milford Extension and
Other Notes of the Roads.
Last fall the San Gabriel Valley Rapid
Transit railroad built its line through
the Arroyo de los Posas to Aliso street,
and for a short period the people at
Monrovia and other stations on the line
were landed within a few hundred feet
of the Aliso-street bridge and on a line of
Btreet cars leading into the city. In
December, when the rains came, the
road was washed out clear from the
Five-mile creek, about a mile this side
of Ramona, to Aliso street, and there
was scarcely a tie or a rail left aj}y place
to tell where it had been located. The
Southern Pacific railroad had con
structed a fill across the Five-mile creek,
near Alhambra, leaving only a culvert
for the water to run through. This had
answered successfully in prior years, but
the burst of water was too great last De
cember, and the till operated as a dam,
which finally gave way, the water carry
ing away the embankment which the
San Gabriel Valley Rapid Transit road
had built across the came creek. The
latter's culvert was four times as large
as that of the Southern Pacific, but it
did not nearly answer at that time. The
water on its way downward continued to
tear out the track, and the result was
that from a point near the Five-mile
creek to the city the road has had to be
entirely rebuilt. The work has just
been completed, and yesterday a party,
"consisting of ex-Mayor E. F. Spence,
ex-Mayor Bryson. James Cuzner, F. L.
Story and several others, including
newspaper men, were taken over
the line in a special car.
It was found that since the
washout the men engaged in re
building the line have done excellent
work and have now as easy a road as
there is in any part of the State. The
road lias been excellently ballasted and
there are no rough places, but from the
grounds at Aliso street to the Five-mile
creek the cars run as easily and smoothly
as could be wished. Especial provision
has been made for the free flow of water
down the arroyo. The channel has been
widened and the bridges increased in
size, one having been enlarged from 35
feet to nearly 80. At another point
further up the arroyo the road-bed has
been riprapped so that there will be no
danger of its washing out.
The principal piece of work has
been the bridging of Five-mile
creek, where formerly a curve was made
on an embankment and fill. The bridge
is a handsome structure, and solid
enough to carry the heaviest loaded cars
that ever went over a road. The curve
has been carried to the other side of the
bridge on solid ground, and at no point
along the line is there a place where
danger could even be imagined.
Commencing with today the trains
will leave the city at 7:40 and 11 a. m.
and 3 and 5 p. m., and will arrive at 8
and 10:05 a.m., 2:15 and 5:20 p. m.
Arrangements have been made so as to
have street-cars meet the trains both -
ways, and a switch will be constructed
at the depot site.
It is stated that this road will com
mence work on its line to Pasadena
within the next two or three weeks.
Arrangements have been so far com
pleted that there can be no mistake now
m announcing that the Pasadena branch
will be running this summer. The com
pany, it is also stated, is looking around
with the idea of extending its terminal
to First street to connect with the cable
roads at that point. The exact route has
not as yet been selected.
Southern Pacific Beport.
The annual report of the president
and directors of the Southern Pacific
Company has been made public. It
shows that at the close of the year the
company was operating 6.052.47 "miles of
railroad. The Pacific system west of El
Paso included 4,310.11 miles, and the
Atlantic system 1,742.36 miles, a total
increase of 120 miles. There are besides
many ocean, river and ferry-steamer
lines.
The total passenger earnings of the
Pacific system for the year were
252.51, a net increase of $17,466.77.
Owing to the collapse of the Southern
California boom the through passenger
earnings decreased $474,858.03, but the
increase in local and sleeping-car earn
ings more than made up the deficiency.
Through westbound freight business of
the Pacific syßtein decreased $764,312.34,
and eastbound through business in
creased $297,807.41. The decrease is in
Southern California's business. The
total through freight earnings were
$6,581,543.14, and the local earnings
$12,258,617.57. The total freight earn
ings were $19,754,424.89, a net decrease
of $1,489,077.77. The total earnings were
$33,928,485.74, a decrease of $1,188,755.96,
and the operating expenses were $21,
--623,620.41, a decrease of $1,072,924.46.
The earnings over operating expenses
were $12,304,865.33, and the net income
of the Pacific system after paying inter
est, taxes, rentals, etc., was $228,260.29,
a decrease of $320,394.47. The rail and
steamship lines of the Atlantic system
earned $12,414,722.12, a large increase,
and the net income was $1,103,491.07.
The total net surplus for the whole sys
tem was $1,333,585.14.
The Southern Pacific Company is prac
tically the owner of its proprietary lines,
and a consolidated statement "of the
assets and liabilities of these companies
—not including the Central Pacific,
Western Pacific, Oregon and California
Und California Pacific Companies,
whose lines are leased to the
Southern Pacific Company — shows
the following items: Total par value of
stock issued, $261,967,867; total liabil
ities and capital stock (including funded
and floating debts), $385,420,037.45;
total assets, $408,857,074,50; surplus of
assets, $23,437,037.05. The statement of
the Southern Pacific Company, taken
alone, shows a capital stock of $111,884,
--040, and a floating debt of $4,469,724.80,
making the total liabilities $116,353,
--764.80. The assets, including stocks of
proprietary lines, bonds, materials, etc.,
amount to $118,628,077.24. The general
income account shows a deficit of $296,
--472.55, against a surplus of $1,379,483.31
last year.
The Milford Extension.
A recent issue of the Bait Lake Tribune
says: Engineer McCartney, of the
Union Pacific, has just returned from a
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1890.
trip over the extension from Milford to
Clover Valley Junction, and was much
impressed by the magnitude of the work
and the diabolical weather. Of this lat
ter he saw a fair specimen in the fall of
two inches of snow, Monday, down on
the desert 300 miles from" here. The
contractors have been bothered to death
by the weather, for out of 120 days' ex
perience on the desert, only twenty were
distinguished by really fine weather.
Notwithstanding the great meteorologi
cal drawback, Kilpatrick Bros., of Col
lins, have kept pegging away, and have
now nearly 2,000 men actively at work.
Seventy-five miles of the line have been
graded, and so rapidly is the work being
done that were track-laying to begin now,
the trackmen could never catch up with
the graders. The contractors have at work
ten grading machines capable of handling
each 1,000 yards of earth per day. Each
is drawn by twelve horses and managed
by three men, and when they are turn
ing over 10,000 yards a day the grade
just grows like a mushroom. Work on
the six tunnels is well along. The delay
in construction now is in ties, of which
the road is apparently able to get none;
at least, not right away. However the
tie contractors are calling for a thousand
men to cut all the way from Provo
south, and every effort will be made
to get the timber. He was inter
ested in the extended well-boring going
on along the line. The well-men will go
down 500 to 1,000 feet in each place be
fore abandoning a well. Depths of over
100 feet show no signs so far of any bot
tom to the agricultural soil, and tiie soil
is laid out at each well in lines like,
showing the various loam strata gone
through.
The little town of Nephi, in Utah, is
enjoying quite a boom, from the fact
that the Utah, Nevada and California
railroad is to pass through it, and the
Union Pacific engine houses are to be
constructed there. A gang of surveyors
of the Utah, Nevada and California are
now cross-sectioning the proposed route
through the town. This is the road
which is supposed to be seeking to par
allel the Union Pacific in this direction.
REDONDO HOTEL.
A Glance at the Beautiful New Hotel at
Redondo—lts Grounds and Interior to
be Opened to Public Inspection on
the Ist and 2nd of May.
The Redondo hotel will be opened to
the inspection of the public on the Ist
and 2nd of May, and we would advise
all who delight in the artistic and the
beautiful conjoined with the home-like
and the comfortable, to avail themselves
of the opportunity thus offered. The
building is a composite of the quaint
style of the Elizabethan and the Queen
Anne eras, with gables, towers, porches,
projections, insets, and enough regular
irregularities in its outside lines to make
it strikingly interesting.
The grounds have been carefully and
tastefully laid out with walks, drives,
flower beds and lawns. But of course
it will require time for the trees, the
shrubbery and the flowers to grow be
fore the full effect will be attained.
Reaching from the southern extremity
of the building to the beach is one of the
noblest staircases in the country. It re
minds one of the grand approach to
the court of Versailles. It is altogether
wrought out in cement, and pre
sents, with its wide steps and
stanch balustrades, an air of
grace and solidity which would
not have been surpassed even if built of
marble. At the southeastern end of the
hotel, shut out from the winds and open
to the sunshine, is a delightful enclosure
intended for invalids to take their air
ing. It is bordered with full-grown
transplanted orange trees, and faced by
a high cement wall encircled with
flowers and shrubs. There will be nice
little walks where the invalids can take
there exercise under shelter, and where
they will find all sorts of little cozy
nooks and corners where they can take
their ease. We can only give a faint
idea of the extent or beauty of the
grounds, because they will require time
before their full fruition of magnificence
can be taken in.
Oifice and Salons.
We now come to the interior. The
office, or lobby, of the hotel is striking
for its beauty of design, and its admir
able carvings in wood. It is finished in
live oak, exquisitely polished, and the
furniture is in keeping with the entire
tone of this very handsome apartment.
The billiard-room is also a very attract
ive salon, furnished with massive Strahle
tables of the latest and most approved
make. The dining-room is a per
fect gem. It is not as extensive
as that of the Coronado, but
it has beauties and advantages
which that famous salon has not.
Formed in the shape of an extended
semicircle, three-fourths of its ample
windows look out upon the beach and
the ocean. Its curtains are all deli
cately hand-painted, and treat of such
appetizing subjects as clusters of berries
and grapes, sprays of flowers, and
bunches of fruits of every kind, all
reproduced to nature. The room will
seat 300 people, and the tables and
furniture are of the richest work and the
most substantial material. It is one of
the handsomest, airiest and sightliest
dining-rooms we have ever seen, and
any one who could fail to do justice to a
meal there must be utterly lost to the
pleasures of that "good digestion that
waits on appetite," of which Shake
speare speaks.
Booms and Suites.
There are altogether some three hun
dred suites and rooms in the hotel, and
they are all so richly and even gor
geously furnished that the visitor who
becomes a guest is at a loss which to
choose. The immense corridors are
covered with soft and velvety carpeting,
and the rooms in this respect are each
treated with a carpet to correspond in
design and color with its finish and with
its furniture. The bridal chamber is a
gem of beauty, with alcoves and closets
and little side corners, with a lavender
tone pervading them and a richness of
garniture adorning them, that make
one wish that the happy day were com
ing soon or had not yet gone. AVhen we
say that not less than seven miles of
carpeting has been consumed in furnish
ing this beautiful hotel, our readers will
concede that the gentlemen who have
launched into this splendid enterprise
have the courage of their capital as well
as of their convictions, both of which
are without limit. Indeed, it is not
alone that they have given to this county
a new and beautiful seaside resort,
one that will attract people from all
parts of the Union to enjoy our delect
able climate,but that they have exhibited
a taste in its execution that reflects the
highest credit upon their artistic and
esthetic judgment. Whilst the new
hotel is a gem of beauty, inside and out,
at the same time it has an air of home
comfort which will prove very grateful
to all who may inspect it or become its
patrons.
Tomorrow the Herald will give a
complete description of the hotel and
other matters at Redondo, with an ac
count of the opening. It will be a nota
ble number, worthy of special attention.

The Significance of the Ex
clusion Act.
A New Clause Providing for
Punishment.
It is to be Put Into Effect by the
United States Authorities.
Additions to the Chamber of Commerce
Exhibit—Other Items of an Inter
esting Nature.
The importance of the action recently
taken by the United States Court author
ities, regarding the mode of proceeding
against unlawful Chinese immigration,
was yesterday increased by its virtual
indorsement by the United States At
torney-General. This officer has had the
matter under consideration for two
weeks, and yesterday telegraphed to
United States District Attorney Cole his
approval of the plan outlined, and his
authorization of proceedings against the
twenty odd Chinese captured recently at
San Diego by Chinese Inspector
Coon, and now in custody in this city.
Now that this matter has progressed
so for, it is proper to re-state
its scope. Under the construction
put on the exclusion acts of 1882 and
1884 heretofore, the only consequence to
the Chinese attempting to enter United
States territory was to be returned to
the country they had last been in,
though there are provisions in the act
for those found guilty of assisting the
immigrants. This measure of returning
the Chinese has been found ineffectual,
and it was left for a Los Angeles official,
Deputy United States Marshal Marsh,
to discover that the act of 1884 provides
a punishment for the would-be immi
grants. The act provides that the en
trance of Chinese laborers into the
United States shall be unlawful; that
they shall be returned to the country
they were last in; that those found
guilty of assisting them shall be
punished by fine or imprisonment, or
both. etc. In Section 16, however, Mr.
Marsh found the measure which, it is
expected will effectually stop the influx
of Chinese from over both the northern
and southern boundary lines. This pro
vides that for all violations of the pro
visions of the act for which no punish
ment is specified, the person found guilty
shall be punished by a fine not to exceed
$1,000, or imprisonment. This it is held
now will apply to the Chinese captured
unlawfully entering the United States,
as it is held that the act of returning
them is not a punishment, and that the
act properly construed means that they
shall be punished first, and after serving
their term of imprisonment or paying
their fine, be returned from whence they
came.
The Attorney-General has had this
view under consideration for two weeks.
His approval therefore is equivalent to
a favorable opinion. The importance of
this question, it is said, cannot be over
rated, for, if sustained by the courts, it
will result in making the exclusion act
exclude.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
The Fountain and the Permanent Ex
hibit—Other Matters.
The fountain which has been erected
in the exhibit hall of the Chamber of
Commerce will start into operation in a
day or two. Eugene Germain has agreed
to have it covered with vines and flowers'
in pots. It will be a beautiful addition
to tbe display.
Flowers yesterday were donated by
Mrs. J. A. Anderson, Mrs. A. W. Hobbs,
Mrs. A. Veeder, Mrs. Cowles and Mrs.
D. L. Parkhurst. Dr. B. B. Briggs con
tributed oranges and lemons. J. Jar
chon, of San Gabriel, donated oranges.
Some gypsum was sent in from Whittler.
The Pacific Sewer Pipe Company made
some additions to their exhibit.
A number of articles were shipped off
yesterday for the exhibit of the State
Board of Trade in San Francisco. The

AN INDIAN ?
Attempt to Escape the Gallows on
Ethnic Grounds.
Francisco Ward was brought in here
some weeks ago and landed in jail, on a
charge of raf!e committed in San Ber
nardino or San Diego county. The
charge was made in the United States
Court on the ground that the offender is
an Indian and that the offense was com
mitted on an Indian reservation. Ward
had no counsel, and George J. Denis,
Esq., was appointed to defend him. Mr.
Denis learned that Ward was born in
the City of Los Angeles of an Indian
woman, but that his father was a negro.
The child was brought up here until he
was 12 years old, and then his
mother returned to the reserva
tion and resumed tribal relations.
Counsel for the defense raises the ques
tion as to the ethnic relations of the cul
prit, and argues that the mother not
being a slave, the child follows the con
dition of the father, and is therefore not
an Indian.
The court took the matter under ad
visement at the close of the argument
yesterday. It is the man's sole chance
for his life perhaps, as rape under the
federal statutes is punishable by death,
after the age of assent on the woman's
part is reached. Strange that the rape of
a child is punishable by imprisonment.
