ACCIDENT AT THE SuTRo TUNNEL.-Yes.
terday morning, about 9 o'clock, Charles
Shepardson. carman at the Sutro Tunnel,
was very seriously and probably fatally
injured. The cars hold about three tons
of rock each, and are hauled ont Of the
tunnel in small trains by a mule. 1t
seems that Shepardson had brought out
a train of loaded cars, three Of which he
pushed out upon track resting upon q
trestlework intended to support the
weight of empty cars only. He got he.
tween two OF the cars for the purpose Of
dumping one of them. While he was lift
ing on the car the track suddenly gave
way under his feet. As he fell he was
caught between two cars and was crushed
across the breast. After he was extri-
Gated he is said to have vomited blood
and it was thought by those who saw
him that his injury would terminate
fatally. DR.. Weber, of this city, wen

his own continuing; notably, boat for
lake service. weighing 400 pounds and
capable of carrying sixty men. HIS out
fit willlbe a very perfect one, and will in
clude instruments sufficient for scientific
purposes. He has spent all the time be
could get since the expedition was re-
solved on in studies of scientific methods
and OF the use Of instruments. This will
enable him to make an accurate record
of his discoveries, to increase the mum

of kind which the critics, whom be

whether he felt sure it would not be

THE LATEST SAN FRANCISCO
SENS ALTON.

San Francisco is v happy in the
absence of a tirst-class sensation. The
latest is that produced by the Very en
phatic and severe charge OF Judge
Stanley to the Grand Jury. His Honor
told the jury that it would devolve
upon them to thoroughly investigate
certain irregularities i'll connection
with the finances of the city and coun-
ty, involving II probable loss of ome
thing over a half million of dollars.
Mayor Otis and Treasurer Hubert were
frankly designated as the guilty par
ties. Both of these gentlemen having
been elected but Il few months since as
staunch Reformers. the bare announce
ment that they were guilty of pecula-
ton, or anything appr"Niinating it.
was sufficient to set the whole city
in a blaze of excitement. Nothing else
was talked of and but little else was
talegraphed to the interior papers. The
SENTINEL's dispatches have teemed
with it for the last few DAYS. and we
have still another batch this morning.
1t will be seen, however, that a large
meeting of substantial citizens last
night completely exonerated the May
or and Treasurer. From ali we can
gather on the subject we are led to con-
clude that the law has unqucstionablv
been broken. Treasurer Hubert has
been removing the city and county
funds from the Treasury and deposit
ing them in the Bs,nk of California.
The Law makes this action a felony,
and as it appears that Mayor Otis was
cQgnizant of and conserving to the
ffeaSurer's proceedings, he is also I'M
plicated. The penalty prescribed for Il
violation of the law in this particular is
confinement in the Penitentiary for
from three to ten years, at the diScre-
ton of the Court. Technically, they
may have been guilty of an infraction
Of the law, but that fraud was intended
no one will hardly believe. At the
first blush it looked like a very grave
piece of business, but now that the
matter has been fully explained, public
sentiment is very apt to set in against
Judge Stanley instead Of the Mayor
and Treasurer. Nothing whatever has
been developed which warrants the be-
lief that the technical violation of the
lau. vas iptapda6 IN coyer n fraudulent

plead guilty totrusting too often to our

there is that about New.on Booth that
draws a stranger To him in spite of
himself. 1t is a proud knowledge for
the people of a State that their Chief
Executive is not only an honorable
gentleman but one OF great erudi,ion
and ability. We find that the people OF
Sacramento City look on the Governor
as a friend and adviser, and we have
failed to hear a di>re>pectful word
spoken of him e by his political en-
enies. We do hot design to eulogize
Governor Booth. and should not have

AFTER THE SOILED DOVES.

The Board Of Aldermen Of Virginia
City are going TO make an attempt to
suppress the social evil in that immoral
burg. At the last regular meeting Of
the Board the question was discussed
at great length, and the conclusion
finally reached that under its charter
the city had no power 10 regulate
houses of ill-tame. 1t was therefore
decided that they should be eradicated
altogether, and the City Attorney was
accordingly instructed to prepare an
ordinance prohibiting them within the
city limits. This state of the case
alarms the virtuous editor of the Gold
Hill News, and he proceeds to moralize
plaintively thuswise:
What do these Aldermen mean? Do
they propose forcing prostitution to be
carried on mere privately. for do they
mean to drive all the prostitutes down
to Gold Hill Are they going to Sod
omiZe Slippery Gulch with their cast
Oft iniquities ? L" Angels and ministers
of grace, defend u.s." But. perhaps
this i, only a sly job put up by some
smart spectators who own property
in some eligible locality just outside the
city limits, on the Divide for in>tance-a
sort OF corner" so to speak. Per-
hapS Alderman Ryan can explain.
Seriously, though. if the city charter is
defective, it should be so amended az
the coming session of the Legislature
next Winter-aS TO cOnfine the social
evil to certain limits and completely
control it. Having endured it so pa
tiently for years, the Horntowners
surely might be able to stand it a few
months longer till properly controlled
by legislation.
