IL 1T A BEAR MOVEMENT.

many tneOries put loiWaiu y 'no iAd
tive mind of some Of our people to ac-
count for the unusual and somewhat
novel course pursued by the Kentucky
Company in levying suit against the EN-
ployes of company to determine the
rights of property in the company itself.
Many assert that the whole thing Is
merely bear movement TO depress the
stock, that certain parties may be forced
ont Of the company and others allowed
to come in; some even so so far as to as
sert that certain wealthy, powerful and
ambitious aspirant to Senatorial honors,
whose chief field of operations has here
tofore been confined to the western part
of the State, has concluded to take a hand
in Phoebe affairs, and to that end has de-
termined to capture controlling interest
in the stock of the Raymond a Ely Com
pany. This gentleman being, it Is said.
on the best of terms with the controlling
members of the kentucky Company, has
conspir@d with that corporation TO put NJ
job by which they expect to send the
stock of the Raymond * Ely Company to
figures which will enable them to get
control at paving rates as financial H.
vestment, to say nothing of the political
capital that may he made by owning
the leading mine Of the State outside of
the Comstock Range. The good faith OF
the parties bringing this action is ex-
posed to many doubts when it is consid-
cred that two suits to try the title TO the
same property both being prosecuted at
the same time, will not be tolerated by
by the courts; and the court first obtain
ing jurisdiction, when the action cannot
be regularly removed from one court to
another. for good cause, shown under the
law, will be allowed to proceed and try
the cause. In this case there is already
an action pending in the District Court
for this county to try the tits to this iden-
teal property, and while that suit con-
tinues in this court, plea in abatement
TO the United States Circuit Court would
be good, and the cause dismissed. But
should the court allow the Raymond Il
Ely Company to come in and defend for
its employees and set up its title, We are
confident, on proper showing OF dam
ages likely to accrue, the United States
Circuit Court would put the injunction
bonds so high that the Kentucky Com
pany, and all its friends, would not be
able to give the bond; unless, as is sup
posed, a wealthy Senatorial candidate is
AT their back, who is playing a deep game
for the succession to Senator Stewart
1t is said that the same party already has
control of the Meadow Valley Company,
and will not be content until the Ray
mond Il Ely Company shall also fal
under his control.
The INDEPENDENT SUCCESSFUL IN SA
FRANcIsCo.-Ou latest adyices from Sa
Francisco are to the effect that the Inde
pendent Legislative ticket is considere
to be elected by all parties, which is
clear victory in that city for the anti-rail
road people. The san Francisco delega
ton in the Legislature may, therefore, b
set down as solid for Booth for the Sch
ate We have but few returns from tn
interior of the State, but as it is general
conceded that as San Francisco goes, 5,
goes the State, there can be but littl
doubt but the railroad has met Water
loo defeat, perhaps more complete an
disastrous than was the overthrow 0
Gorham in 1861 1t is said that durin
the day, in San Francisco, Billy Carr
chief Lieutenant of the railroad forces
gave up all as lost for the regular Repub
lican ticket, and issued an edict TO tn
faithful to 90 in solid for the Democrats
ticket, which gave additional strength t,
the general belief that the Democratic
ticket had been captured by the railroad
and caused a greater loss than was gaineC
by the Republicans.
