THE RAILROADS.
Receipt Comparisons Be
tween 1888 and 1887.
A 76 PER CENT. INCREASE.
Changes to be Made in tlie Southern
Pacific's Time-schedule on
the Bth Inst.
One of the best indications of a city's
prosperity is the business done by the
railroads that centre in her midst, and
with a view to obtaining some idea of the
present traffic situation, a Herald re
porter called yesterday afternoon on
General Freight and Passenger Agent
Sayler, of the Southern Pacific. In re
ply to an interrogation, that gentleman
replied: "The total cash receipts for
freight and passenger business in this
city for the six months of the present
year show an increase of seventy-six per
cent, over tbe receipts for the correspond
ing period in 1888. Business is certain
ly light at present, but it is far
ahead what it was this time last
year. There are certain seasonable
changes which invariably come, for in
stance June is always a lighter month
than May and July is also noted for not
particularly heavy business, but these
events are always expected in railroad
circles. Traffic will not pick up to
amount to anything before August, but
Irom that time on business will pour in
as fast as we can handle it, that is, judg
ing by the precedents furnished by previ
ous years. The present month has
started out well, as we have received and
handled more freight to-day than for
some time past. Passenger travel is very
good, especially on the local lines; on
the overland business the travel is now
rather into the State than out of it, as
last season's excursionists have all de
parted for their homes."
Inquiries at the Santa Fe offices elicit
ed the facts that the receipts by that
company were also far above those of the
the preceding year, and tbe local line
business was ako said to be holding up
very well.
FREIGHT RATES.
Latest Edict of tne Transconti
nental Association.
New rate 'sheets have been issued by
tbe Transcontinental Association, giving
rates on East-bound shipments. The fol
lowing are the announcements made:
Canned goods to all Eastern points $1.10:
oranges and lemons, by passenger train
service to Missouri river points $1.90, to
Mississippi river points $2.05, to Chicago
$2.15, by freight service $1, $1.10 and
If 1.15; potatoes to all points 85 cents.
Fish or vegetables in straight or car
loads by passenger service $2.50 to Chi
cago; ostriches (valuation not to exceed
$2000 per car) by passenger service to
Missouri River $1.90, by freight, $1 55;
frozen poultry in refrigerator cars, to
Missouri River points, $1.90, to Missis
sippi River, $1.90, to Chicago $2; sugar
65 cents. Missouri River rates will here
after apply on carload shipments of
green fruit to Montana points on either
freight or passenger trains.
A CHANGE OF TIME-CARD.
Important Alterations by the S. P.
Company.
The new time-card over the Southern
Pacific will go into effect on the Bth
inst., and the Herald hastens to give its
readers information of the changes that
are to be made affecting this city.
Train No. 19, the overland east-bound
express, will arrive at tbe same time, but
will leave at 7:40 P. it., instead of at 8
p. »t. as heretofore. No other changes
are made in the overland service.
The Banning local will leave at 4:85
p. m. instead of at 4:25 p.m. as at present,
and will arrive at 9:20 a. m. instead of
9:25 a. m.
The Colton local will leave at 9 a. St.
instead of 8:30 a. if.', and will arrive at
4.30 p. m. instead of 4 r. if.
EXCURSION NOTES.
Departure and Arrival of a Number
of Tourists.
A Burlington excursion of five carloads,
recruited from all parts of Southern
California by Messrs. Quigley and Scott,
the hard-working and popular representa
tives of the C, B. & Q., left the city last
night for all points East.
A Warner's excursion also started, and
is running behind Mr. Walker's tourist
party to Chicago, which left the night
before.
The regular Sunset excursion from
Boston and other Eastern cities will ar
rive in town on Sunday morning.
Ail Important Meeting-*
To-day's proceedings at the Transconti
nental Association Convention at St. Paul
will be very important, as the question
of classification is to be decided. The
westbound and the transcontinental
tatiffs at present differ on a good many
points and the proposition to make them
uniform is favorably considered by the
Pacific Roads. The shippers however
are averse to any change and are raising
many objections to the proposed altera
tions, but the indications are that the
uniform standard will be established.
This will make the east and westbound
classifications the same and save a good
deal of trouble to the clearing houses.

will prove most interesting and useful to
intending travelers to the coast. It will
be in the press in a week or ten days.
THE LOS ANGELES DAILY HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 6, 1888.
A Chance of Management.
It was stated by a railroad official in
town yesterday that Mr. A. Manvel,
General Manager of tlie St. Paul, Minne
apolis and Manitoba Road, intends to
resign, and will be offewd the position of
Vice-President and General Manager of
the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy.
The change on the Burlington system is
said to be an outcome of the recent
strike of engineers on that road.
A New Line Started.
The Pacific Improvement Company's
outfit which has been engaged in build
ing the new line between Polhemus and
Tustin, has entirely completed its labors
there. The teams, horses, oxen and
working apparatus were accordingly
brought up to town yesterday and at once
left for Cucamonga to start work on the
new branch to the Declez quarry. This
is but a short line and will therefore be
finished in a few day's.
General Gleaning**
The Berkeley double track will be
completed in a day or two.
Twenty thousand shares of the Santa
Fe system are said to be held in London,
England.
Colonel A. B. Hotchkiss, attorney for
the Southern Pacific, is passing a few
days at Santa Monica.
One of the newly-painted baggage
coaches has been put on the Santa
Monica run and is a very handsome
vehicle.
The trains from Santa Barbara were
laden down yesterday with excursionists
returning from O. R. C. festivities at
that place.
The number of pieces of baggage
handled in the baggage-room of the
Southern Pacific depot on San Fernando
street last month was 15,719.
The freight and passenger agency
which the Atlantic and Pacific has
established at San Jose is a success, and
other roads will probably follow the
example set.
Trainmaster Thompson returned from
Santa Barbara on the first excursion train
yesterday morning. He says the jaunt
was a pleasant one and his beaming face
carries out that assertion. %
The rails for tbe Monrovia Rapid
Transit Road have been heard from, and
will be here in a day or two. They will
be at once laid down between Ramona
and the Mission Road, as the grading is
all done.

THE ODD FELLOWS.
Tlie Slxtli street Park >ot to Be
Used for a Camp.
Preparations for the visit of the Sover
eign Grand Lodge in September next are
being actively made by the committee in
charge, and it is now certain that the oc
casion will be one which the citizens and
visitors will long remember. It is esti
mated that there will be not less than
30,000 visitors in the city during the
week mentioned, and rooms are being
engaged now for some of the Odd Fel
lows who expect to come.
Mr. Eugene Germain, one of the com
mittee of arrangements, stated yesterday
that it was not the intention to* use the
Sixth Street Park for camping purposes.
The Pavilion has been secured for the
headquarters of the military division,
and the block known as the St. Vincent
property will be used for tlie camp. The
Sixth Street Park will be used merely as
a promenade ground, and in the evening
concerts will be given at the band stand.
There need be no fear under these cir
cumstances that the Park will be injured
in the least.
A SMALL BLAZE.
Hoodlum Celebration Outside the
Poatoffice.
About midnight on the Fourth, W.
Liebes & Co's cigar store on Spring street,
narrowly escaped destruction by fire. A
fire-cracker thrown on the awning
ignited it, and in a few minutes the
whole sheet of canvas was in flames.
The fire department soon appeared on
the scene, however, and extinguished the
blaze. A number of drunken brawlers
made things obnoxious in that part of
the town all day, and an extra force of
police stationed there could scarcely keep
order. The riot culminated in the
evening, when one individual of cowboy
propensities drew a 44 and discharged
several shots, two of the bullets passing
through the portico of Liebes'' store.
This scattered the crowd, and taking ad
vantage of the excitement which fol
lowed, the disturber of the peace suc
ceeded in escaping from the clutches of
the law.
Tne C ity Aesetament.
City Assessor Stephenson has turned
over to the City Auditor Teed the assess
ment rolls for the present fiscal jyear.
The books have not yet been footed np
but it is stated that the total amount has
been considerably increased. Mr. Steph
enson states that the books are in better
order this year than they were last and
that the City Tax Collector will have
less trouble in making out his bills than
was the case last year. The City Council
will convene shortly as a Board of Equali
zation.
For Sa,n Diego.
The City ol Pueblo sailed* south for
San Diego yesterday with the following
passengers: R. W. Pierce, E. F. Pierce,
M. Schmidt, Mrs. W. McDonald, John
Mayo, Mrs. C. B. Carpenter, J. J. Fried
lander, Miss I. C. Moore, W. A. Woods,
H. Nelson, C. F. Bedell and wife, and
seven in the steerage.
A WOMAN'S JUMP.
nn. Van Tassell, Lands Safely on
the Earth.
Possibly the hundreds of people in
town wbo noted with surprise tbe pres
ence of Professor Van Tassell's balloon
in the air fully three hours ahead of the
time advertised for its ascension will be
surprised to learn that Van Tassell kept
his contract to the letter in all but the
time of the ascension. Van Tassell, ac
companied by Lis pretty wife and D. E.
Barclay, Deputy County Recorder of this
county, did go up iv the balloon, and
Mrs. Van Tassell did perform the daring
feat of decending to the earth from a
distance of nearly 4000 feet, with the
aid of a skeleton-like parachute. It was
not believed on Wednesday that this had
been done, and until some authoritative
statement could be obtained the Herald
refrained from publishing an account of
the voyage.
As advertised, Van Tassell, bis consort
and a male companion, were to seek a
higher altitude in a baJoon, from the
corner of Los Angeles and Aliso streets,
at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Some
body, considering death in store for Mrs.
Van Tassell should she leap from the bal
loon attached to a parachute, addressed a
message to Chief of Police Cuddy asking
that he prohibit Mrs. Van Tassell from
doing so. The Chief took the writer's
view of the matter and ordered Detec
tive Tom McCarthy to be on hand at the
time appointed for the ascension and un
less Mrs. Van Tassell gave her word of
honor not to make the leap, to prohibit
her from going up in the balloon. The
hardy aeronaut; and his wife heard of
what the Chief was going to do, and they
decided to get heavenward with all pos
sible speed. Already the huge gas bag
was well inflated, the register showing
that close on to 200,000 feet of gas was
in the balloon. Bags of sand served as
anchors to stay the balloon from flying
upward and numerous guy ropes served
as auxiliaries in the same direction. All
but the guy ropes were cast loose from
the balloon, and then Mr. Barclay was
sent for.J Mr. Barclay is an amateur aero
naut of considerable experience. He has
made several ascensions, one with Van
Tassell, from this city two years ago.
Barclay was found by the messenger and
told to repair, as speedily as possible, to
the scene of the ascension. He did so,
and had just time to pull on
his overcoat and jump into the
cage, in which were seated Van Tassell
and his wife. The balloon was then
held to earth by but one rope. Van
Tassell gave the order to an assistant to
"cut her loose." In a moment the bal
loon shot heavenward, attaining at the
initial jump an altitude of nearly 2,000
feet. It was just at 10:47 o'clock that
the huge gas-bag darted heavenward
from terra firm a.
The voyage in the air is probably best
told by Mr. Barclay. He was seen after
the ascension by a Herald man. De
scribing the ascent, voyage in mid-air
and return to earth, Mr. Barclay said :
"The balloon contained about 250,000
feet of gas when we started up. Inci
dent to an ascension is an upward jump
of tbe balloon immediately it is cut loose
from its moorings. The jump of our
balloon was a memorable one. It car
ried us to an altitude of about 2,000 feet.
Professor Van Tassel, Mrs. A r an Tassel
and myself were in the cage. When we
had attained that altitude we found no
clearly defined current of air. A
calm, so to speak, was prevalent.
Our height, we all agreed, was
notjsufficient to admit of the parachute
jump being made with safety. Our bal
last consisted of several bags of sand and
numerous bundles of papers, dodgers,
etc. Some ballast was tossed out, but
we finally decided to release some gas.
This we did and came to within about
1000 feet of earth when a good wind cur
rent was struck. We Bhut off the gas
valve and rode with the current, taking
a gradually upward course until we were
about over, or a little to one side of the
Jefferies place, and near the Arroyo
Seco. At that time, I shall judge we
were 5000 feet in the air.
"Van Tassell all along was extremely
wary. Every moment he would glance
up at the parachute we carried, swung
from the cage. The 'chute, as he called
it, seemed all right. Finally he said he
guessed the time had come for the leap.
Mrs. Van Tassell was cool and collected.
Van Tassell pulled the 'chute down into
the cage. The parachute is shaped much
like an umbrella, and just about twenty
feet in diameter at its mouth. Pendant
from it are two ropes, provided
with hand rings at their ends.
To these rings Mrs. Van Tassell's hands
were strapped. Also pendant from the
center of the apex of tlie corner of the
now inflated chute is a rope. About
Mrs. Van Tassell's waist we fixed a stout
strap in circingle, and tbe end of this we
attached to this rope. All was ready.
Van Tassell bade his wife good-by, and
so did I. She was cool as an iceberg as
Van Tassell cleared the parachute from
its moorings. She stepped on the edge
of the cage, looked down once and then
then stepped off into space. We shot
heavenward at once, a distance of about
500 feet. "Van" was so nervous he
crouched in a corner of the cage. I peep
ed down and saw the parachute dashing
toward the earth like a rocket. My heart
was in my mouth for a moment, but
when I saw the old "chute" fill out and
sail downward at an easy gait I knew
that the first parachute descent in the
world by a woman was a complete suc
cess.
'■Van Tassell had arranged with his
| wife that should she reach the earth in
safety, she was to hail him by waving
her handkerchief. As soon as we could
, collect ourselves, Van Tassell told me to
, pull the valve cord. This cord, when
pulled, releases the valve, or plug, hold
ing the gas in the balloon. I pulled it
i with a will and we were soon descending
at a fearful rate. I tried then to release
the valve but failed, and it looked as if
we were going to get the worst of it until
we got within about 300 feet of the
ground. AYe were tossing out all the
ballast left, when the balloon lightened
a little. When tbe cage was within
about ten feet of the earth, we both
leaped out and landed in safety, As we
carried no grapples or anchor we had to
let the balloon go scooting over the
gi o iiid.
"We made our way at once to Mrs.
Van Tassell and found her standing on a
sandy heap. About ber bad gathered
a half a hundred people, among them
being Messrs. J. D. Yoakum, Shumwav,
Jeffries, Poor, Smith and others of Pasa
dena. Mr. Smith and Mr. Shumway had
already released Mrs. Van Tassell from
the 'chute. She was a little bit jarred
but not injured in the least.
"All of us shook hands. Mrs. Van
Tassell said the 'chute did not work
until she had fallen 200 or 300 feet, she
thought. Her descent was made easily
and gradually. It was a grand feat and
I think it but just to Mrs. Van Tassell to
say that she was the coolest and bravest
of the party of three. Mrs. Van Tassell
reached the earth, I should judge, about
a mile the other side of the wagon road
I bridge over the Arroyo Seco."
"How did Los Angeles look from above,
Mr. Barclay?" asked the reporter.
"Great development was noticeable on
every hand. I went up from here two
years ago. The change in things seemed
miraculous to me. We certainly have a
beautiful town, especially if you look
down u]x>n it from a mile in the skies."
Yesterday Van Tassel went out to
Pasadena to find bis balloon. He found
the huge affair collapsed, yet unharmed,
near l'asadena. Mrs. Van Tassel was
was the recipient throughout tbe day of
a storm of congratulations from numer
ous admirers. Van Tassel and wife go
from here to Seattle, where the lady will
again make a descent in the 'chute.
the Yacht Race.
The following dispatch was received in
the city from San Diego yesterday
morning: "Yachts Aggie and I.mime
arrived this morning. The Lurline won.
The Aggie broke her topmast." Con
siderable excitement followed this
announcement, as for the forty-eight
hours preceding tbe dispatch, the Aggie
was regarded as a certain winner, and
several long-odd bets were made. As
the Aggie was the favorite all through in
this city, considerable money will change
hands on settling day.
The Supervisor!.
The Board a( Supervisors held a short
session yesterday. Captain Barrett pre
sented a petition asking for a wharf fran
chise at San Pedro. Captain Thorn on
behalf of the Dominguez heir appeared
and requested a delay of action. Super
visor Venable moved, and it was carried,
that action be delayed until the Gth of
August. In the meantime the Board
will visit San Pedro and inspect the pro
posed wharf site. Captain Hillyer asked
for a ferry franchise at San Pedro. The
matter was laid over until August Gth.
