INSPECTOR REPORT LAS
VEGAS CONDITIONS QUIET '
Han B. Rencar, inspector of state po
lice, passed through Tonopah Friday in
a high-powered Lincoln car capable of
making ninety miles an' hour. He was
on his way to Carson City and was
accompanied by seven men from the
force sent to Las Vegas on the first
alarm when it was thought danger was
imminent, says the Tonopah Times.
The seven are cbifly students with army
experience who are returning to their
universities to complete their studies.
These men are being replaced with
ranchers and cowpunchers of Clark
county, so the number of state police
w.li not be diminished for the present.
"When I left Las Vegas the situa
tion was very quiet," explained the in
spector. "The new men are coming up
town and are receiving protection."
Road conditions in the south are
very bad, Renear said. Between Beatty
and Las Vegas the road in sections is
actually dangerous, with sand and
chuckholcs and washouts which cannot
be seen until the car is right on them.
In spite of this, the police car came
through in good time, leaving Las
Vegas at 9:30 a.m. and registering in
Tonopah at 7:30 p.m., covering 224 miles
aSier allowing fqrty-five minutes at
Beatty for dinner. From Beatty to To
nopah the road is fine and the sunken
road near Cuprite, which was washed
out last week by a cloudburst, is a bed
of firmly packed sand over wh'ch the
Lincoln rolled at fifty miles an hour.
Communication by mail between Car- !
son City and Las Vcpas takes three davs
and the distance can be covered by
auto in twenty-four hours.
CARSON WOMAN SEVERLY
BRUISED IN ACCIDENT
Mrs. Homer Mooney and Mrs. F. N.
Fletcher were severly bruised as the
result of an automobile accident on
Lake street, at Fourth, Saturday af
ternoon, says the Journal
Mrs. Mooney was driving north on '
Lake street when a Ford car, approach- j
ing rapidly from the east, caused htr
to turn sharply to the left and against
a tree on the west side of Lake street.
The second car, swinging wide, also
turned north on Lake. The driver
left his number, 71-736, with F. L. Hug
gir.s, a witness to the accident.
Huggins said' Mrs. Mooney was two
thirds across the street when the col
lision seemed imminent and that the
Ford car was traveling at an "unusu
ally high" rate of speed, which attract
ed his attention before the accident.

LOUt FREIGHT RATES TO
BECOME EFFECTIVE IN NEVADA
Pursuant to the action of the public
service commission of Nevada, a new
class rate adjustment for main and
branch lines of the Southern Pacific
Company, approximating a reduction of
twenty per cent (some reductions being
as much as fifty per cent) is now in
process of publication for filing with
the commission to become effective as
soon as arrangements 'can be made. This
adjustment will cover class rates from
San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Sac
ramento to Reno and other Nevada
points and from Reno eastbound to all
points along the main line, northbound
on the Fernley-Susanville branch and
southbound on the Hazen-jdills branch,
including adjustments out of Winne
mucca, Klko and Ogden.
In connection therewith, and pursuant
to tli i s commission's request arrange
ments are under way for tilt publication
of carload rates on sugar, canned
goods, dried fruits and vegetables, from
important producing points in Califor
nia so that there will be through car
load rates for instance, on- dried fruit
from Fresno, sugar from Spreckles,
canned goods from near Monterey and
Fresno, and as illustrative, from San
Francisco group points to Ogden and
intermediate points a rate of forty-nine
TONOPAH RESIDENTS TO
PROTEST TRAIN SERVICE
A protect against a proposed new
schedule of the Southern Pacific Com
pany for its trains from San Francisco
to Tonopah and a request for twenty
four hour service have been filed with
the public service commission by a com
mitHe of Tonopah citizens, headed by
I. Grant Crumley.
The action is said to be the out
growth of a pronvse made by J. M. Ful
ton of the- Southern Pacific at Tonopah
recently that the southern Nevada towns
would have twenty-four hour train ser
vice between the Coast and Tonopah."
The times given in the proposed new
schedule reported by Fulton are not
acceptable to the Tonopah and Gold
field railroad, operating from Mina to
Goldfield, although the proposition of
a twenty-four hour schedule is ap
proved. A hearing on the citizens' protest w ill
be heard by the commission.
According to General Manager Fors
ter of the Tonopah and Goldfield rail
road, the proposed arrival at Mina
would be approximately six hours prior
to the arrival of the freight. This,
he declares would cause bis road to
delay the traffic fully twenty-four hours.
He has pointed out that the grade
from Millers to Tcnopah is one of the
worst in the western country and that
night travel over the same would be
considered-extremely hazardous, espec
ially in the winter, when ice and snow
would add materially to the danger.
He believes that no benefit would be
derived from the receTpt of mail in To
nopah at night; that it would not be in
the hands of most business houses un
til the morning following, when the av
erage business man would not have time
to look after his correspondence and
take advantage of tbe outgoing train
the same morning.
