INDIAN AFFAIRS.
Indian Commissioner Smith has gone to
New York on official business, but is ex-
pected back Wednesday morning. No
further talks with the Indians will be held
till his return.
A great deal of trouble is occasioned by
the intrigucs Of outside parties with the
Indians. After the commissioner refused
Spotted Tails request on Saturday to
change his quarters to the Washington
house, the latter, with Red Cloud and two
other chiefs, took his baggage and went
there on his own responsibility. Yester-
day morning Secretary Cowan notified
Beveridge, proprietor of the Washington
house, that the department would pay no
bills contracted by the Indians at his
house. Afterwards the Indians returned
TO their former quarters. The reason the
commissioner declined to accedc to the re-
quest of the Indians in this particular is |
that when Spotted Tail was here two years
ago Beverage gave them whisky, fire.

ANOTHER lNCENDIARY FIRE !
vERDER'S BAKERY,

At ten minutes past three o'clock this
morning the dread but now familiar, cry
of fire was again heard through our streets.
The alarm was taken up by the railroad
whistle and soon became general. Upon
investigation 1t was found to be located in
an open shed back of the bakery of II. l..
Verder & Go. The shed was open, con-
tanning large quantity of kindling wood,
and burned rapidly.
The flames soon communicated to barn
standing about fifteen feet from the shed.
The barn contained $50 barrels of flour.
Policeman N. S. Scarns burst open the
door and began to save the -four.
At half-past three o'clock Washington
engine No. 1 had a stream playing on the
shed. Nos. and soon followed, and at
the present writing the men are gaining
control of the flames.
The barn is badly burned, the flames
having burst up through the roof.
Smoke was pouring forth from the bak-
cry building at one time but no flame could
be seen. The tenants of the upper floor
removed their goods and the bakery was
partially emptied of its contents Unless
the fire reaches the inside of the bakery it
will be easily subdued
The fire is undoubtedly of incendary
origin.
LATER-415 A. NJ.
The fire is now completely under control.
The loss is entirely confined to the shed
and barn, which are considerably burned,
and TO the flour, much of which was
spilled in removal. Loss covered by in
surance. The main building is uninjured.
The buildings are insured for $4,000,
in companies represented by NJ. J. Fran
cisco; estimated loss, $4,000.
AT AGO, as the engines were being housed
from the first fire, another alarm was
glven the fire was found to proceed from
the dwelling of Mrs. Russell on Wales
street, being the second house south of the
bakery. The fire caught from the sparks
of the first fire flying through
open window aud igrting a bed. The fire
was soon controlled and the engines or
dered back The house was occupied by
John Guilty as a boarding house. Loss

THE SHARP MURDER.

The evidence in the examination of
the alleged murderer of j. N. Sharp
shows that a heinous crime has been
committed. A stranger in strange
land has been brutally murdered, and
his body horribly mutilated. What the
motives of the person or persons who
committed this blood-curdling and re-
voting butchery were has not been
made apparent by the evidence, but
that there was motive in thus dispos-
ing of him is not doubted, as the sanity
of the accused is not questioned. To
Rover, who is charged with the crime,
Sharp was stranger. There is moth
ing in evidence to show that they had
any dealings or even knew each other
before their meeting at the sulphur
mine. As it is the duty of the officers
to investigate everything connected
with the case carefully and thoroughly,
no pains should be spared to ascertain
the immediate cause of Sharp's death.
The Coroner's jury summoned to the
spot where the murder was committed
found that deceased came to his death
by a blow ON the head from some
heavy instrument. Rover's statement
contradicts this finding by the assertion
that Sharp was shot. An examination
of the remains will determine the truth
or falsity of this statement, and the au-
thorities should see that the examina-
ton is made by competent physicians.
Although the statement of the accused,
under the circumstances, is not entitled
to much weight, it is worth while to
make the Investigation to determine if
any importance should be attached to
it. Everything possible should be done
to bring the perpetrator of the crime
to justice. Men are continually going
into the mountains in prospecting par
ties consisting of two or three persons,
andif any of the individuals comprising
them should have murderous designs
on their fellows, the energy of the au-
thorities in this case should be warn
ing to them that crime committed
away from human abodes, in the noun
tains or on the desert, will be visited by
swift and certain punishment of the Of
tenders, and that no expense will be
spared in ascertaining who the guilty
parties are. Fer savagery this murder
is unparalleled ia the annals of Hum
boldt county, and nothing that is cal
culated to penetrate the mystery which
surrounds it or throw any light on the
subject should be left undone.

THE new Raymond and Ely

THE new Raymond and Ely pump
willraise $4,000 gallons of water an
hour. 1t Moves with the utmost pre-
cision and regularity, and with no
more noise than the ticking ofa clock.
Water was brought from the 1900
foot level. 1t is first raised about 40
feet to tank, and thence from one
tank to another, which are 200 feet
apart, to the surface. There are five
of these tanks, each 6x7x12 feet in
dimensions, containing 504 cubic feet
each, and each having a capacity of
about 5000 gallons. The water will
be run through trough to a tank
on the lower side of the works, and
from this tank will be conveyed
in pipes by the Floral Spring Water
Company along Main street to the
open plain below town. Everything
about the mine, both on top end
underground, is in admirable working
order, and as soon as the pump
ing machinery is put to work reg
ularly the working force in the mine
will be increased.
