A STRANGE PROCEEDING.-A9 Mr..
Sampson was bringing Woodruff and
Ennor's coach in from Palisade yes
terday morning, and when about five
miles from Eureka, he was met by a
party in a buggy, who commanded
him to stop. Mr.. SIMPSONS expert
ence as a driver over roads where
such Interruptions might be looked
for at any moment, led him to con-
clude unhesitatinglyth that, considering
the position of each and The prnDaDlll-
ty of a successful escape, he had pet
ter. for his own safety, as we'll as tnat
of his passengers, obey the summons.
Another consideration which mace
the driver so willingly submit TO the
demands of the man in the buggy was,
that be had on board Il lady, former
resident of Eureka, and the VIE OF Il
prominent business man here. FROM
any harm her he would endeaVor 10
guard: and thus the coach ana SIN
were peremptorily brought to a halt.
None of the passengers were mo!eSt-
ed but one, and that one the driver
was not permitted to bring any fur
ther. The treasure box of Wells,
Fargo & Co. was not found, showing
the person whose object must nave

amateur at the business. No further
particulars in regard to the case nave
been made public; but Mr.. Bartietl,
the lumberman, is said to know more
about the affair than any one else.

METERoLoGICAL.-Day before yes-
terday opened with a dome of stratus
covering the whole sky and
~obscuring the sun, and a gentle
southerly wind, perceptibly laden
with vapor. This continued dur.
ing the day, with an increase of
wind toward evening. During the
night a strong breeze set i'm, and the
morning following brought increased
INDICATIONS of a rainfall. About nine
o'clock the lightest drizzls began,
which gradually increased into a
steady rain that continued without
cessation until eight o'clock i'm the
evening. Enough fell to change the
dust of the streets into mud, and TO
!saturate the ground for several
inches below the surface. The atmos-
phere was changed from unpleasant
ly warm weather to that degree of
cold when fires are needed for COM
tort, and consequently several were
klndled in the stoves of various pub
lie houses. Yesterdays climatic
events were certainly of a very agree
able charcter.

EUREKA CONSOLIDATED. A San

ing from a recent letter of the Super
intendent of the Eureka Consolidated
mine: The Windsail is looking very
well both in 1st and Sd. The 1st is
showing a large body of ore, and the
3d an increasing body. The ore body
in the 4th level from Lawton shaft
has narrowed down to three to five
feet.

Dry Goods Market.

The week under review was not productive Of
such largely increased business as was antief
pated from the number Of buyers IN the market
and the season of the year, and il is needless to
disguise the fact that some disappointment is
felt at the sluggishness with which the sprn 2
trade opens. The market for cotton goods was
quite active, and the commission houses had no
occasion to press sales, as their stocks are very
closely sold up, indeed the current production
of various staple fabrics fails to meet the con-
sumPtive demand. Prices for cotton staples
ruled remarkably strong and regular through
out the week, and towards its close the prevail
ing frmness eliminated i'm an advance on some
OF the more prominent makes Of bleached shirt
ings, and as matters now look a general up.
ward movement seems imminent. Under these
circumstances il is not to be wondered att that
buyers from the different sections of the cOun-
try should be eager TO lay in their supplies at
current rates, nor that large business was eff
fected in staple cotton during the week, as there
l. RO likelihood of decline in prices for some
time to come. WOOlens showed a material i'm
proyement during the week. Clothing manu-
iacturers, who operated lightly in spring weights
at the outset OF the season. have been compelled
to retnter the market as purchasers, finding
that CONTRARY to their expectations) prices tot
really desirable goods are likely to be maintain.

The movement Of the western people against
the great railroad monOpolies begins To assume
definite shape, and il Is pretty certain that the
control of railroad fares and freight will be the
issue on which the legislatures of several of
the western states will be chosen. The producers
are holding conventions, and vet more to the pur-
pose, are forming lodges or oranges with q view
TO making the issue political question; and it
l. stated there are now about ! 200 of these as
soeiations in the two states Of Iowa and Min
nesota. pledged to a hand-tO-hand battle with
railroad tyranny. In Missouri, Illinois, wiscon-
sin, Iowa, and Minnesota the people seem to be
thoroughly aroused for the fight, and any
attempt of the railroad companies to manipu-
late the members OF legislature TO their ends
would be risky undertaking both for the bribers
and the bribed. The Governors of four of these
states-Illinois, Missouri, Wisconsin, and MIN
neSota-have so far recognized the popular inn
pulse as to call special legislative attention to
the grievances of the producers, and suggesting
an enquiry into the right Of states 10 apply
remedies.

1.-The weight Of the testimony now is that he
did not get that dividend, and therefore did not
I'erjure himself. IL is fair TO add that Colfax
was an incessant letter writer, and that III
oakes Ames' story were true. he would almost
certainly have something from the ever busy
pen Of COlfax to corrobOrate him, but he has
no scrap Of paper with Coifax's writing upon
it. that helps him in the question of veracitv.
Another thing, in business matters Colfax was
green and IL the devil had baited a trap ex-
PreSSiy to catch him he surely would have used
something having reference TO the Pacific rail-
road. COifax was almost a much in earnest
about building that road a. Ina saving the life

There are two young ladies in the Post Once
Department. who do all the translating, l. C., OF
four different languages. The work is very
severe, and the Postmaster General has asked
the post ONCE committee to increase their salary

men, twice the pay asked would be considered

that the application i'm their behalf will be sue
eessful, rs they are not only thoroughly deserv-
Iag but poor and need the money.
