LET THEM SHOW THEIR HANDS.
The editor Of tho Nevada Tribune
has some mlsgivings about the charse-
ter Of the men said to compose the In
organization In Virginia
City. In other words the learned edi-
tor has heard something drop and sus.
poets that the organization referred to
10 not made up OF the staunchest and
msst reliable business mon Of Storey
County. The head Of the Tribune sdi-
tor Is eninsntly level on this proposl-
ton. Ills suspicious have so much
foundation as to partaks largely Of the
character Of revelation. II, says he,
"the Independent movement is alone
designed to elevate certain ambitious
men to place and power, We will have
none Of It." This Il correct. We

vERGING ON n A

A special telegram to the San Fran
cisco Alta from Washington. under
date Of May 10, says that the Senate
Judiciary Committee has not yet con.
sidsred the Sutro amendments ald will
probably net do so until week after
next, consequently 1t appears that the
Senate will not be called upon to act
upon the matter until late In the pres
ent session. It Is evident now that
the feeling Of members Of Congress
and others has changed very much
concerning Sutro, ana It appears that
he will be defeated BY a large vsts.
The influence Of the prsss Of CAL
ifornla and Nevada has been very ap-
parent lately. Mr.. Sutro, however, is
still continuing bis free lectures, during
which he makes very grave charges
against all the people Of the people Of
the Pacific Coast, without exception.
He repeats every evening In the lee
turs his statement that the Baak OF
California owns all the newspapers

Judges and other public siilesrs OF

with bays and inlets, while navigable waters
extend far into the interior. Situated in the

IRON MANUFACTURE IN PENNsYLvANIA.-1n
conversation with leading ironmaster, few
days ago, reporter of the Allentown (Pa.)
Chronicle learned that most of the furnaces in
the country are preparing to go into blast again
as buyers who have been holding off for lower
prices are convinced that iron will sell no
cheaper for the present. and are sending in
their orders, thus creating revival in the trade
The same authority predicts that next winter
the dizziness in iron will equal that which we
have just experienced, and says there will be
more iron manufactured in the country this
coming spring than there will be next fall. The
American Iron and Steel Association have as
certaned by thorough canvass of the country
that there are in the United States eight hun
dred and sixty-four blast furnaces in working
condition, capable of an annual production of
four million tons of pig iron,a quantity greater
than the country can consume at present, and
these furnaces, encouraged by the present de-
mand for iron, will go to work, so that before
next fall the demand will be supplied, and
another cessation will be occasioned.
