BIG PROJECT GOES KAILEDAD BETWEEN COOS AND SALT LAKE CITY. BAY Chief Engineer Kinney Also Says It Has Been Decided to Build a Coast Lins Between San Francisco and Portland. Portland, Aug. i4. The Oregonian baa the foHowiEg: Chief Engineer Kinney, of the Great Central Railroad, last night gave out the statement that the transcon tinental feature of tlie Coos Baj Railroad ' had been accepted and he had fceen di- rected to make location of the line through to Salt L?ke City. This acceptance, he said, provides for bonding the road at .?lG,O0(a mile, involving in round num bers 15, 000,000, though the exact dis tance between Coos Bay and Salt Lake City over the new route has not yet been determined. ilore than this, Mr. Kinney announced that a railroad would be built to reach between San Francisco and Portlaud a 2oQg the coast. This will not be a part of his enterprise, but he says it will be built by capital friendly to the Coos Bay-Salt Lake line. It is understood that it will be an extension of the Cali fornia North western, which now reaches Bjoctkward from San Francisco Bay to U Sciah, in Mendocino county, a distance of ltz Liilea, and has a line surveyed through to Eureka, on Humboldt Bay. 3Jaor Kinney says he has no knowledge , of the details of that enterprise, but lie is assured it will be built. Tillamook Bay lias been mentioned in connection with it, and it may be that Portl n d's railroad to Tillamook will form a section of the through coast line between this city and Saa Francisco. "Who is it that will Jo all this? Whose 'money or what railroad is supporting your project ? "Well, to tell you the candid truth, I tro.tf.fc know," he responded. "And what is Bsore, I don't know as I care much. I do know that I am employed by respons ible people, who are advancing all the tnoaey necessary in the preliminary op erations; that we are paying promptly for what we buy, and will contiuue to do so. 1 know that I have been instructed t proceed with all possible speed to make the defiuite location of the line through between Coos Bay and Salt Lake City, and that I shall do my best to obey instructions. The preliminary work will take tiiree months at least, so I do not loot Sot active construction to begin on the line before next spring. That is, on the main line. Work on the Belt Line Safisray at Coos Bay will not be delayed for feat, however "As to the people- who are really be hind iiiis project, I don't think that's any of the public's business. I notice that most cf the important railroads are built -witfeo-jit disclosing to the public just whose money goes into them. Many! railroads are built and operated for years befar-e the hand that really was behind thetQ takes public possession. For that in&ttsr, Z think it would puzzle most peo ple to tell just whose money is running some sf our big railroads that have been doing business for years. Can you tell today whether Vanderbilts or Goulds hold the larger part of the stock of the Union Pacific? I can't, and I don't know that it matters whether I can or not. Who owns the stock of the Northern Pa cific? "I may say this regarding the con struction of the road: We will probably begin first on the Salt Lake end.and will drive the piles during the coming winter for the1 road across the southern end of Great Salt Lake. The Salt Lake end of the line will be under a separate incorpo ration, which wilhbe filed iu a few days. ".H D Jerrett, first assisttant engineer, and Mr. Peltz, of Philadelphia, left to-, night to join George Lyman Moody, who has been reconnoitering theJPortland line for a considerable distance from Coos Bay, and they will go to work on the .main line at once. I regard it as quite significant that my instructions are to get the straightest line possible, that any reasonable advance construction cost will lie borne for the sake of getting a first class road. That looks to me like seri iOus business." Major Kinney also gave out the fact that it had been determined to make the Belt Line Railway around Coos Bay a trolley line, and that Loon Lake Falls, on a branch of the Umpqua River, had been acquired for power purposes. , robbers took alarm they rushed for a back fence .only to meet a volley from the officers' revolvers. - Their bullets failed to find their mark, and as the men rushed past the po licemen they fired point-blank. Both officers fell, Devine dying in stantly, while Pennell lingered half an hour. The robbers made good their escape. A general round-up was made by the police, who have 80 suspects under arret. London, Aug. 12. Kiog Edward took a drive in a closed carriage through the streets of London this morning. He was loudly cheered by the thousands of people along his route who demonstrated their joy at hi3 recovery with wild enthu siasm. King Edward reviewed the colo nial troops on the lawn in front of Buckingham Palace today. The crowds were so great that traffic was suspended. The King appear ed to be in good condition, walking along the lawn terrace with the que-n and a host of younger mem bers of royalty, the colonial pre miers, Chamberlain, Roberts and Kitchener. The trooDS received 1. coronation medals from the Prince cf Wales. Independence, Aug. 14. The young child of Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Hilliard came near strangling to death Tuesday evening. The little fellow swallowed a penny and it lodged ia the throat, causing the wind passage to be closed. Imme diate medical assistance averted a fatality. Chicago, Aug. 12. Policeman Timothy Devine and Charles Pen cell were shot and killed at day Tight this morning by two burglars whom they caught in the act of robbing the house of Dr. Shaw, on Ashland boulevard. The policemen detected thern at work in the rear of the residence. : When the London, Aug. 12. The arrival next Saturday from South Africa of Generals Botha, DeWet and De larey promises to be the occasion of another struggle between Boer and British. Tne colonial office has made special arrangements for the reception of visiting Boers at South ampton, jthe naval review will be in progress when the Boers arrive, and after their reception by distin guished colonial officiale, Lord Kitchener and other prominent per sons, they will be taken on board the stsamer chartered fur the use of the colonial premiers to wit ness the naval review. The Bo er leaders will spend Saturday night on board this vessel, and on Sun day tbej' will be received by King Edward on board the royal yacht and in the presence of a number of distinguished personages. The arrival in England of the Boer generals will doubtless be the prelude to another round of lioniz iug like that experienced by the late General Meyor, should the gen erals decide to stay in England, but according to The Hague corres pondent of the Daily Mail ex-President Kruger and his paitv are e qually anxious to prevent Generals Botha, DeWet and Delarey from landing in England. Members of the Kruger party have sent urgent letters and cablegrams to Mederia. in efforts to dissuade the generals from accepting British, hospitality. Tucson, Ariz., . Aug. 12. Eil Correo de Souora brings an account of a daring hold-up near MazatlaD, Mexico, by three masked men, sup posed to have been American out laws. The robbers secured $4,ooo and made good their escape with the plunder. Mariano Gordillo, the driver, attempted to whip up the horses and was shot and killed. The stage waa full, but the passen gers were unmolested. A shipment of $4,ooo to a bank at Mazatlan was the booty the robbers were af ter, and when they secured this they allowed the stage to proceed. A poese was sent after tne robbers, but up to last, reports their search was fruitless. Albany, Aug. 12. Frank In gram, the man who was shot by Merrill in the outbreak from the penitentiary, and who has since been pardoned by Governor Geer, is in Albany. Before he was sent to the penitentiary, Ingram lived in Linn county, and he was often ia Albany, where he is well acquaint ed. He spent yesterday meeting and talking with his former friends. Although he has not been in Alba ny for more than ten years, he re membered all his old acquaintan ces. He could enter a store, where he once traded, and call the propri tor and ail the clerks by name, and could meet a man on the street and remember all about his former bus iness. Ingram was right at home in Albany. In view of the fact that he saw the famous outbreak of Tra cy and Merrill a great many people desired to talk with him and hear the story of the outbreak from an eye-witaess. Ingram says that the recent news paper story from Salem about him being shot by Merrill accidentally is entirely untrue. He met Merrill as stated in the recent story, while the latter was looking for a ladder, and attempted to take the rifle a way from him. Ha says that Mer rill undoubtedly shot him purpose ly. He also says that the papers gave Tracy too much of the credit for the outbreak and consequent flight. He considers Merrill just as bad a man as his companion in crime. Although Tracy did the most of the shooting when they es caped, it was probably by an agreed plan that Merrill should get the ladder while Tracy took care of the guards. He alo says that it is pos sible that Merrill killed one of the guards. Ingram told another story of the famous outbreak which has not yet appeared -in print. He says that Tracy and Merrill had planned a greater outbreak a considerable time before this one, and one of their supposed confederates had disclosed the plan to the prison officials. Tracy and Merrill ' were severely punished for forming the plot, and threatened if they ever did make a break to avenge themselves on the men who bad told on them. In gram says that when Merrill went to get the ladder he ran past it and eagerly looked among the fleeing convicts as if to see one particular one. It is supposed he Wanted to carry out their, threat. Ingram is now here to raffle off a hearth set which he made while in the penitentiary. It is a very neat piece of work. He is apparently meeting with success, but not so much because the citizens desire to secure the prize at, they desire to aid the man. MY utiGWCOR. I sing a man, God bless his name! A man of honest labors: Cnknown to fortune or to fame. But loved by all his neighbors. No strangre or philosophic creed. No doctrines hard to cipher. For which so many fight and bleed And which so many die for, Could fill his peaceful soul with strife; They left him as they found him; - His sole philosophy of life i Was love to all around him! Ail hail this man unknown to fame. This man of honest labors; Oh! did the world but know his name And love it as his neighbors! No grass could grow beside his grave, Though guards of iron bound it, For loving fet-t would quickly pave A beaten path around it. Charles Babson Soule, in Chicago Record Shatters All Records.
