IN NINETY DAYS.
Work on the Santa Fe's San
Francisco Line
It is Said Will Be Commenced
In That Time.
Contractor Guthrie Inquiring; for
Teams and Men.
President Manvel's Old Chief of Construc
tion in the City—"What He Did While
Here—A Prediction.
Mr. J. A. Guthrie left this city on
Thursday. He had been here several
days on important business. The
importance of his business will
be better understood if who Mr.
Guthrie is be made known. He
is a well-known railroad builder—an
actual railroad builder, a man who has
the shoveling done and the ties laid and
the rails spiked; a railroad contractor.
Mr. Guthrie some years ago was super
intendent of construction on the Mani
toba railroad; in fact was in the employ
of the road at the same time that Mr.
Allen Manvel was its president. He
and Mr. Manvel were very good friends.
Mr. Manvel has a way of keeping his
friends who are efficient railroad men
with him, and as he is now president of
the Santa Fe, it is not surprising to see
Mr. Guthrie appear in this part of the
country.
What did he do here? Well, he made
very close inquiries as to the resources
of Los Angeles as to supplying 400 or
600 teams, as many or more laborers,
and supplies for both at Mojave inside
of the next ninety days. He was con
clusively shown that all his wants could
be met, and off he went.
"Work on the Santa Fe's line to San
Francisco will be commenced inside of
ninety days," said one of the men Mr.
Guthrie had talked to, to a Herald re
porter yesterday.
The following, taken from Thursday's
San Francisco Chronicle, is apropos:
"The most interesting and the chief
topic of conversation in railroad circles
is the building ofjfthe Santa Fe line into
this city. Not the least noteworthy
feature of the general discussion is the
universal belief that San Francisco is
really to have another transcontinental
line. The route to be followed i 6 vari
ously mapped out and the exact route is
probably only known to Santa Fe
officials. They have, however, not had
a word to say in the entire talk and are
the quietest imaginable of railroad
people.
"A. N. Towne, general manager of the
Southern Pacific Company, and J. C.
Stubbs, third vice-president of the com
pany, were both seen yesterday and
both expressed their confidence in the
bona fide intentions of the Santa Fe to
build into this city. The contract which,
has long existed between the con i
pany and the Atlantic ajo/i Pacific has
through all this railm&d talk been the
aubjeet of Hiswesvsn. The head men at
Four.tft anf t Townsend streets are all
supplied with copies of the con
tact, and two or three of them, when
' questioned yesterday, were able to refer
to the document with an ease which
suggested recent perusal with its pro
visions.
"The principal features of the con
tracts were: The purchase by the At
lantic and Pacific of the line from Mo
jave to Needles, and, as the title of the
Southern Pacific has never been cleared
up, the payment of the interest
on $30,000 a mile of 242 miles at 6 per
cent, per annua, which is virtu
ally making the purchaser the owner;
the securing of traffic rights under the
condition that the Atlantic and Pacific
should give three years notice of inten
tion to extend its "lines from Mojave to
San Francisco.
"This is only the veriest outline of the
agreements, but it is the gist of them.
Whether this notice will be given or not
is a question. It was stated, however,
by one official of the Southern Pacific
Company yesterday that the chances
are that recourse will be had to a not
uncommon ruse for the avoidance of
auch an agreement. In fact a new com
pany will be formed with the object of
connecting Mojave and San Francisco
and having, of course, no visible rela
tionship to the Atlantic and Pacific."
HE MARRIED THE GIRL.
A Wedding Ends a Serious Criminal
Case.
Since Wednesday morning last, when
Charles Garner was held to answer by-
Justice Austin under bonds in the sum
of $1,500 to the charge of seduction pre
ferred against him by Mrs. S. A. Wink
ler, the mother of the girl he wronged,
strong pressure has been brought to
bear upon Miss Mary S. Carter to in
duce her to retract the damaging state
ments she made upon the witness stand,
and half-crazed with drink and worry,
the girl went to the police station on
Thursday, and was locked up until she
recovered her equanimity. While in
jail the unfortunate girl was visited by
her mother, and after a long interview
the latter held a consultation with
the chief and Detective Bosqui, both of
whom advised that the girl be commit
ted to one or other of the female asy
lums in San Francisco until she
became of age, as the best means
of effecting her reform. This, on
investigation, was found to be
impracticable, as the young woman
was perfectly capable of taking care of
herself, and being over the age of 10
years, was beyond the jurisdiction of the
law provided for such cases. The only
remedy left was in her marriage with
Garner, hut this course was strongly ob
jected to by the young man's parents,
who were firmly convinced that their
son could clear himself of the charge
against him when the case came up in
the superior court.
Garner apparently was not so confi
dent of bringing the case to a successful
issue, for early yesterday morning he
accompanied Mrs. Winkler to the county
clerk's office, and that lady having filed
a declaration of her consent to the mar
riage of her daughter, as required by
law, he procured a license. He then in
formed the authorities of his intention
to marry the girl, and at 10:30 he and
Miss Mary S. Carter were joined to
gether in holy matrimony by Justice
Austin, in the presence of Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Phibbs and P. R. Willis,
Esq.
This will, in all probability, effectu
ally dispose of the case against Garner.
The Boberts-Finucane Trouble.
Officer Finucane complains that the
account of his scrimmage with Captain
Eoberts places him more in the wrong
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD; SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST 2, 1890.
than he really was. He says that he
had protested to Captain Roberts against
being placed in Mr. Morton's watch, be
cause he and the latter were not on
speaking terms and had not been so for
ten months. At the time the difficulty
occurred he was talking to Chief Glass,
and when he gave his reason for not
wishing to be placed in Morton's watch
Captain Roberts angrily declared tlvat
Morton was a better man than he was.
This incensed him and he said it was a
lie ; whereupon Roberts struck him, and
the chief took away his star. Officer
Finucane claims that if his star should
have been called in that of Captain Rob
erts should also have been called in, be
cause he provoked the word that led to
the blow.
PRETTY MRS. RASMUS
Gets Her Admirer and Her Husband
Into Difficulties.
A. H. V, Sinden, a good-looking
young German, appeared before City
Justice Austin yesterday morning for
preliminary examination upon the
charge of having, on the night of July
7th, assaulted Albert Rasmus with in
tent to commit murder.
The complainant, Albert Rasmus, a
small man, testified in effect that he
had known the defendant for three
years past, but had not spoken to him
for about two years of that period, the
reason being that Sinden had attempted
to alienate the affections of his' wife.
Twelve months ago the witness went to
San Francisco, and on his return, a few
days before the shooting, made inquiries
about his wife. On the night of
July 17th he called at the house on
Georgia Belle street, where she was em
ployed as a domestic, and had a long in
terview. While they were together on
the back porch of the house, Sinden
passed by and Mrs. Rasmus called her
husband's attention to him. About 9:20
o'clock Rasmus left the house and
walked to the corner of Fifteenth and
Figueroa streets, where he caught a
street car on the Ninth-street line. He
sat in the rear of the car, and shortly
after he saw Sinden jump on the car
and sit down on the other side, on the
seat parallel with the one he occupied.
Neither of the men moved until just
after the car crossed the Sixth-street
crossing on Spring street, when Sinden
rose and came round on the footboard to
where Rasmus sat. Holding on to the
stanchion with his left hand he pre
sented a pistol at Rasmus and deliber
ately fired, after which he jumped and
ran "up Sixth street. Rasmus the next
moment felt the wound in his neck.
With the assistance of the conductor,
who was standing close to him,
the flow of blood from the wound was
staunched until the car reached Second
street, when he was escorted to the po
lice station by an officer.
Dr. W. H. Morrison, police surgeon,
testified to having dressed Rasmus's
wound at the city jail, and G. W.
Shehi, the conductor of car No. 24 of
the Washington-street "blue" car line,
corroborated Rasmus's testimony in
every particular. ■ • • -
The court held.-the defendant to an
sw.g? under bonds in the sum of $5,000,
in default of which he was committed
to jail.
A HILARIOUS WIDOW.
But the Husband's Fortune Is
Gone.
Sin Si Waw died on Thursday at Ana
heim with 15 cents. Sin was a China
man ;he had lived many years in that
place and was widely and favorably
known as a merchant, who was sup
posed to be very wealthy. Sin himself
thought he was very rich, as did his
cousins. He died, however, and his
bank account being balanced showed
to his credit the sum of 15 cents. Man
Wo, Sin's brother, was very much
troubled over this matter, as were sev
eral others who expected a legacy of
some sort. Mrs. Sin, however, has been
very happy ever since her husband's
death; in fact, she has been bordering
on the hilarious, to put it mildly, and
she "no sabes" where the money went
to. There is no doubt but what the
dead man was very wealthy. He had
lived in Anaheim twenty-two years, and
all the people who have lived there that
long are rich.
AMUSEMENTS.
The Coming Engagement of the A. M.
Palmer Company.
For many years the most important
dramatic engagement in this city has
been that of A. M. Palmer's company,
from the Madison-square theater, New
York. From the date of its first ap
pearance here it has kept up a record of
unfailing success. Mr. Palmer is
credited with having produced more
notable successes than any other man
j ager of a stock company in America,
i and his company has always been kept
lup to its high standard. The transcon
tinental tours of this organization,
which are entirely under the direction
of Mr. Al Hayman, have become fea
tures in its history. This year the com
pany is unusually strong, and the reper
! toire diversified enough to suit all tastes,
jTo see such plays as Captain Swift, Jim
j the Penman, A Man of the World, Aunt
Jack, Saints and Sinners interpreted by
the representative organization of
America is an opportunity that should
not be missed.
A CANE AND A LUMP.
Editor Raskin and Mr. P. Ballade in
Court.
Editor Raskin and Mr. P. Ballade ap
peared in Justice Austin's court yester
day afternoon. The former appeared
with a broken cane and the latter with a
big lump on the left side of his head.
They had become engaged in an alterca
tion on Tuesday night, resulting in the
broken cane anil the big lump. Both
gentlemen pleaded not guilty to the
charge of assault entered against their
names, and their case was continued un
til next Saturday at 11 o'clock, much to
the disappointment of a large audience.
Keeping House With Cockroaches,
Reetles, water bugs, etc., is not pleasant. The
most effective and permanent remedy is—for
two or three nights—to sprinkle ROUGH ON
RATS dry powder unmixed, in, about and
down the sink and drain pipe; scatter it well
but thinly over the sink. Kirst tiling in the
morning wash it all away down the drain pipe,
whon all the insects from garret to cellar will
disappear. The secret of this is in the fact that
wherever the bugs or insects may be during the
(lav, they must go to the sinks for water during
the night. They can't stand ROUGH ON RATS
in their water. This is the quickest, most ef
fective and satisfactory remedy. ROUGH ON
RATS being a poison, it should be used in this
way only at night and washed away early in
the morning. Another way is to mix a table
spoonful of ROUGH ON RATS with a half
pojnd of brown sugar. Sprinkle it on rear of
cupboard shelves or on plates, or on sheets of
paper placed high out of reach cf children.
Cut this out for directions.

WHO IS MRS. FOSTER?
The Woman in the Lock
wood Case.
A Newspaper Reporter's Inter
esting Testimony.
What He Saw in and About Lock
wood's Rooms.
D%trict Attorney Kelly on the Witness
Stand—Experts on Handwriting
Examined.
The examination of Justice Lockwood
was resumed yesterday morning at 9:30
a. m. R. H. Farquhar was the first
witness 'called. His testimony was given
very reluctantly. He said that he is a
newspaper reporter. Was acquainted
with both Lockwood and Damron. He
had been in the Redick block in this
city between the 21st and the 25th of
this month and had seen Damron in the
building during that time. The witness
had seen Damron there on the night of
Tuesday a week ago, in room 11, which
he reached by going through room 12.
Lockwood had been in room 12 and
went out into the hall. The witness
here asked leave to explain his presence
in the building, which was granted. He
then said : I had been in the office of the
Times writing out my copy. Between 8
and 9 o'clock in the "evening 1 went out
on the street and was going towards
Spring street when I met Judge Lock
wood coming in the other direction—
going towards Broadway. We spoke to
gether and he asked me to come along
to his room. I accompanied him to
room 10, his own room. We had hardly
been there a few minutes when Lock
wood passed out into the hall. I fol
lowed him and went into room 12.
There was nobody there at all. Lock
wood went out again and I went to the
door of the vacant room numbered 11
and gave it a push. There was some
resistance and I pushed harder. When
the door opened I saw Damron's face
peering out. I was thunderstruck. I
immediately went back to room
No. 10 and told Lockwood
that Damron was in the vacant
room. Mr. Lockwood then went him
self back to that room. 1 followed to
see what was going to happen. Mr.
Damron was still there and exhibited
considerable fear. There was very little
said. I don't think Lockwood said any
thing. Damron did not say much
either. His face was covered with his
hands. I believe he asked me not to
say anything. That was last Tuesday
night a week ago. I saw him again in
the same room once or twice, but I can
not give the dates. I may have seen
him two or three times. I never saw
anybody else in room 11. I have seen a
woman in No. 12. Her name is Mrs.
Foster. She was not there the first
time I followed Lockwood into the room,
j I do not remember if I saw the woman
there on my second visit. I may have
seen her more than once in room 12, but
I will not be positive.
The reluctancy of the witness at this
stage of his examination was very ap
parent.
"I don't remember having had any
conversation with Mrs. Foster in the
presence of Lockwood respecting Mr.
Damron.*"
A question by the deputy district at
torney to the witness tending to throw
light upon the relations existing be
tween Mrs. Foster and the defendant
was objected to by the defense and the
objection sustained. The witness was
not cross-examined.
Deputy County Clerk Frank Fanning
testified that the name "E. T. Wright"
on the note for $110, bearing the joint
names of W. C. Lockwood and E. T.
Wright, was not in Wright's handwrit
ing. He had known Damron's hand
writing for the last five years. The
question as to who, in his opinion, wrote
the name of E. T. Wright was not al
lowed.
Frank A. Gibson, searcher of records,
pronounced the signature of E. T.
Wright a forgery.
District Attorney Frank P. Kelly tes
tified that he had a conversation with
Defendant Lockwood at his office
in the Lanfranco block on the 10th inst.
Lockwood came to the office and desired
the district altorney to stop all further
proceedings in the matter of the arrests
on the complaint of forgery. He said
that his signature on the note was a for
gery. Witness told him that if his name
had been forged he could not be harmed
through it. Lockwood again requested
that the proceedings might be stopped
in the interest of a friend of his. He
did not say who that friend was. The
people then rested, and a recess until 1
o'clock was ordered.
From 1 to 4 the court listened to argu
ments on a motion to dismiss, when a
recess was taken till 10 a. m. today.
Justice Savage will rule on the motion
at that hour.
MISS LATTA WAS NERVOUS.
She Was Not Allowed to Furnish
Bail.
Miss Lelia Latta, the alleged abor
tionist, whe is charged with causing the
death by malpractice of Mrs. Alfretta
Swanton, of Boyle Heights, came before
Justice Austin yesterday morning, with
Henry T. Gage, her attorney. Miss
Latta, a very dark-haired, petite woman
with beautiful eyes, appeared very nerv
ous. Her mouth kept constantly twitch
ing. Mr. Gage asked for a continuance
and moved that the prisoner be released
on reasonable bail. Justice Savage de
clined the responsibility of such action
before he had heard tlie evidence, and
remanded Miss Latta to jail. When the
order was made the prisoner looked
long and reproaehingly at his honor, but
never said a word. The examination
will take place next Thursday at 10 a. ra,
DELBASTY IN TROUBLE.
A Forgotten Wife Makes Matters
Lively.
Jean Baptiste Delbasty, the French
man who is charged with adultery in
that he lived with a woman named
Marie Villemeure, in spite of the fact
that his wife was still alive, was yester
day held by Justice Austin under bonds
in the sum of $1,000, to answer to the
charge in the superior court. When
the case was resumed at 9 ;30 o'clock
yesterday morning, the defense made a
strong effort to obtain the dismissal of
Delbasty on the ground that the evi
dence was insufficient to sustain the
charge, but failing in this it made an at
tempt to show that Delbasty's wife was
not competent to testify against him. As
however she had been allowed to do so
without objection, the court denied the
motion to dismiss, and held Delbasty to
answer.
THE OLD PARTIES
Not Good Enough for Some Re
formers.
A movement is on foot to organize a
"People's Reform Association," looking
to municipal reform in this city. Re
publicans and Democrats who are dis
satisfied with existing conditions and
with recent developments at the re
spective primaries are joining the new
movement for lower taxes and honest,
efficient municipal government. Sev
eral well-attended meetings have been
quietly held, and more will follow. The
question of bringing out an independent
municipal ticket will be held in abey
ance for decision later in the season, arid
for the present the new organization
will confine its work to gathering and
placing before the public a mass of sta
tistics and facts for the tax-payers to
ponder over.
A Herald reporter was yesterday in
formed that at the last meeting many
startling figures concerning the reckless
squandering of the city's money were
presented and discussed. A pledge was
prepared, as a preliminary basis of
membership, and numerous copies of it
will be circulated for signatures. The
pledge reads as follows :
Ketremchment and Iteform.
Believing the time has come when the
municipal affairs of Los Angeles city
can be better managed by breaking
down all old party lines and placing our
best citizens in official positions, regard
less of past party affiliations,
We, the undersigned, pledge our most
hearty support to such a movement, and
will work earnestly for retrenchment
and reform in all our municipal affairs.
IN A MONSTER'S JAWS.
Mr. Walter Vail and a Gila
Reptile.
Mr. Walter Vail is in the city from
his cattle ranch at Pantano. Mr. Vail
enjoys the distinction of being the only
man in Los Angeles ever bitten by a
Gila monster. He i° all right now, but
for several weeks it was a nip and tuck
matter as to whether he would die or
not.
"When the thing bit me I immedi
ately," Mr. Vail said yesterday, "tied a
string tight about the finger in which
its jaws were fastened and another one
about my arm. Then with my knife I
endeavored to pry its mouth open, but I
utterly failed; it was a very large
creature and possessed of tremendous
strength. The only way I could release
myself was by driving a wedge between
its jaws. I then rode twenty-five miles
in one hour and twenty-five minutes,
got an engine to go to Tucson on, and
then had the best of medical treat
ment."
Mr. Vail is somewhat pulled down by
his experience, but is looking well and
is now all right. His finger is marked
by an ugly scar.
THE EXCHANGE SALOON.
Opening of a First-Class Resort on
South Spring Street.
This afternoon at 5 o'clock, the Ex
change saloon, situated at 228 South
Spring street, opposite the Los Angeles
theater, will be opened under the
management of Robert Kern, formerly
manager of the Bank Exchange saloon
on Commercial street. The gentleman
is well known and the fact that he as
sumes charge of the place will in itself
cause it to be well patronized. The Ex
change saloon is well located, is large
and commodious, and cannot fail to
attract the attention of those who are
fond of frequenting first-class resorts.
The place has been beautifully papered,
decorated and carpeted. The bar is a
very fine one and the array of cut.
glasses behind it is very enticing to the
thirsty. The liquors, wines and cigars
that will be kept at the Exchange will
be of the best brands and are sure to
give satisfaction to the many friends
and patrons of Mr. Kern. An elegant
hot lunch will be served daily from 11 to
2. At the opening this afternoon a nice
lunch will also be spread. It is safe to
say that the Exchange saloon is bound
to enjoy a large amount of the business
which is now divided up among other
first rate resorts in that centrally located
thoroughfare.
