tleman who has recently returned
from Panamint thinks an attempt
will be made by the owners of the
principal mines there to dispose of
them in some European market, in

was sold in London. Ore is being
shipped to England already; the eX-
element about the country is being
raised to the highest pitch, and the
way paved for large transactions.

Washington, Nov. 29.-In the case
of the Mono mine, in Utah, the Com
missioner of the General Land Office
has Just rendered a decision, in
which he cuts down the application

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES I!

San Francisco. Nov. 30th.- A
woman named Mary Coats died
suddenly yesterday afternoon, IN
the house of Thos. McArdle, corner
of Main and Harrison streets. Ac-
cording to custom in cases OF TINS
nature, the body was taken to the

Miss Jennie White, school teach
er at San Pablo, who was run over
by a runaway horse on Sacramento
street, on Saturday, died at San
Pablo yesterday afternoon OF her
injuries. The father of this young
lady has had more than his share
of misfortune. In coming to this
Coast. he passed through Nlcar-
augua. During one engagement
his wife and one of his daughters
were both killed by stray bullets;
his son had part of his foot taken
off. Jennie was the sole surviving
daughter.
An attempt at assassination oc-
curred about 4 o'clock this morn
ing. in the clearinghouse No. 90
Sacramento street. A room IL the
house is occupied jointly by two
Young men named James Il. Pad
dock and Patrick c. Harrington,
both employed in a restaurant, and
previous to this occurrence were
the best of friends. At late hour
last night Paddock returned from
the Cliff House, with yonug girl,
and sought introduce his dlsreput-
able associate into the lodging
house. Harrington was requested
to vacate the room. which he lncon-
tinently declined TO do, and reprov-
ed Paddock of the scandal he was
bringing into the house. The lat
ter finally retired with his compan-
ion. swearing vengeance. After
his departure Harrington fell
asleep. About four in the morning
Paddock returned, and entering the
room stealthily, he drew a pistol
and commenced firing at Harrlng-
ton while he was lying asleep.
Four shots were discharged, and
the balls in each instance struck
close to Harrington's body, but ow-
ing to the drunken aim of his room
mate he escaped unframed. The
shooting was heard by Officer Har-
ris. who rushed into the house and
went in search of Paddock. The
scoundrel had secreted himself IN
another room. When the officer
discovered him he was reloading
his pistol; he was disarmed after
some resistance and taken into
custody, swearing he would yet
have Harrington's life. Paddock
now awaits examination IN the
/ Police Court on a charge of assault
to murder.

complimentary Reception by the Board
OF Tradc-The Reciprocity Treaty.
CHICAGO. August II, 1874.
LORD Dufferin, Governor General OF Canada, who
has been the guest of the city since Saturday
visited the Board of Trade this morning. accom-
panied by his wife and his staff. The party were
received with marked respect and cordially by
che members OF the Board, and on their departure
were enthusiastically cheered. They will spend
the day in visiting places of interest IN the city.
During his visit to the Board OF Trade today
Lord Dufferin, on the invitation Of President Howe
made speech in which he said he considered the
reception he had received striking proof OF
the friendly feeling existing between the United
States and Canada. 1t would not become him as
Governor General Of Canada, and simply legis-
l8t0r OF the Crown, to express his sentiments
on any political question, but he could say
that the government OF Great Britain ana that
of Canada desired to pursue those policies that
would tend TO increase and develop the personal
relations that now bind those Powers TO the United
States His government did not imagine that IN
any agreement or treaty q oneslded bargain was
desirable or possible, and he believed our people
were aCtuated by the same honorable sentiments
In regard to Canada 1t would ever be his most
earnest wish to endeavor to promote the jolnt
Interests OF the United States and Canada and
bring the two countries into closer relations.
Lord Duferlns remarks were frequently inter-
rupted by cheers on the part OF members OF the
Board.
