RALsRON's OPINION ON THE SUB
JEcT OF SU1cIDE.-In regard to Rail
ston's suicide, Mr.. Cilley, of Chicago,
said to a reporter of the Inter- Ocean;
/ remember having a conversation
with Mr.. Ralston on the subject of sui
eide. 1t was at a fair, in 1873, I think,
when a heavy rise in mining stocks
took place. Among those who gained
bv the rise was a Frenchman named
Phoebe, who, in a single day, made
some 80, 600, 900 in stocks, and the next
morning, at an early hour, shot him
self fatally. About the same time a
man named B. B. Swain, connected
with the San Francisco Mercantile Ii
brary Association, who had dabbled in
stocks and lost, committed suicide by
taking laudanum. I remember we'll
talking with Mr.. Ralston on the sub
iect of these occurrences and his re-
marking that a man oughtto care mere
for his life, under any circumstances,
than to do away with it. In this con-
v~ersation Mr.. Ralston deprecated with
especial force the idea Of suicide.

made without some loss, as a local
agent named Greer, of Pickens county,
has disappeared, and it is feared he has
been foully dealt with. The authorities

THE .ENPERpnIsE'' ON sUTRO.


The Virginia Enterprise takes special
delight in telling Sutro just what man
ner of man he is. Following is one of
the latest of its arrangements:
The Assyrian down at Sutro can
hardly contain himself for joy now
adays. The suspension Of the bank
and the death of Mr.. Ralston he seems
TO consider as special pr~ovidences-
that is, TO judge by his journal, the
Independent. 1t prints y long article
from the most scurrilous sheet in the
United States, the pith of which is con-
tanned in the closing lines, which as
sert that Ralston broke faith with Su-
tro. No one knows the utter false
hood of the assertion better than SutrO;
vet he has it republished, italicized,
and spread through our streets gratu-
itously: Sutro, with every covenant
he made with the wner of the Com
stock broken and disregarded on his
part, dares to crawl out of his den and
cast his slime upon such agrave as W..
C. Ralston's. 1t shows the mercy OF
our people that they permit such a
reptile to live in our midst, TO blacken
far names and to plot the robbery of a
community. In another column Of
the same paper is a long article to
show the concessions made by Ger
many to tunnel makers. That is all
right enough, if the miners of that
country please to make them; but
there is no comparison between the
two countries. We presume the same
arrangement could be made with Mex
lean mine owners, for they know
nothing about modern mining. But,
even in Germany and Mexico,
we fancy that mine-owners would
stare, were some one to run q tun-
mel, strike a ledge some hundreds OF
feet above where it had already been
explored, and then claim a royalty on
all the ore extracted from all the mines
of that region within a radius of three
or foul miles; and yet, this is one of
the least OF Sutro's claims on the Com
stock and those adjacent. He further
seeks to claim them as his own by a
trick of a law which is itself but a
trick. And this robber-chief of the
world dares to copy from a lying sheet
that, in his lifetime, W. G. Ralston
wronged him. Possibly worse men
than Sutro have been hung, but not
many.

PIoCHE LOSES IT'S TEMPER.

Phoebe is angry at somebody about
the great Indian hoax. In yesterdays
SENTINEL we gave the opinion OF Lin
coins Board Of Commissioners rela-
tive to the matter, and now W extract
a few sentences from an editorial arti-
Gle published in the Record:
When the Jews was sent and appeals
came for aid Phoebe held a hurried
meeting; the only question was, where
are they and how soon can we get
there !? Three hours after forty men
had gallopped away to the rescue,
only to find, after much trouble, hard
ship and expense, that twas all a hoax,
set on foot by men unworthy of the
slightest credence, and actuated by the
basest motive. "
OF the miscreants who started the tales
words are but weak to express fitting
censure. The contempt of the entire
State and the obliquy Of its citizens is
their portion. With them and their
motives we have nothing to do. y
The Virginia Chronicle and Reno Jour
nal have pronounced in favor of pub
lie whipping. We would be half in
clined to suspend our better judgment
in this instance and vote those fellows
three dozen each, well laid on by beat
of drum.
We wonder If the Record alludes to
the gentlemen who compose the Board
of Commissioners Of Lincoln county.
From what we know of the case they
were principally engaged in ap-
pealing for aid. 1t was this
body that discovered three hun
bred :painted warriors on the war
path at Patterson and Cave valley, and
quickly followed up the discovery
with an appeal to the Governor for SOL
diers and guns and ammunition to put
down the redskins. Cleavland and MUIR
ply never asserted that they were
menaced by any such force as that,
and the most they did was to request
Of neighboring communities a little aid
In the way Of a few guns aud men.
All Of the surroundings considered,
they perfectly correct in all they
did, and when the Record asserts
that they were actuated by base
motives, it simply establishes the fact
that its opinions are as narrow and
vindictive as they are shallow and un-
reliable.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. Ia.
For a day or two there has been
some feeling of anxiety and inquiry ex-
pressed as to the progress of the Bank
Syndicate, occasioned 20 considerable
extent by previous reports that the
bank would reopen about the 18th,
while as vet no signs of immediate re-
sumption are evident. A rumor also
prevailed that Michael Reese had
backed down from his subscription to
to the Syndicate Guarantee Fund, and
that matters we're not in as prosperous
a condition as reported a week or two
ago. In an interview with the direct
ors OF the bank, this morning, it was
stated that no ground existed for any
such feeling of distrust; that so far as
the withdrawal of Reese was con-
cerned, he had not yet become q sub
scriber. and that the affairs of the syn
dictate were going on Independently Of
him; that at present the Guarantee
Fund subscribed amounts to a little
over 81. 900, 900; that, a. to the time of
reopening, nothing definite could now
be stated, but probably about the LIST
proximo; that at present matters are
progressing prosperously but slowly.
Lucky Baldwin, who vas yesterday
elected Director, pice Ralston, comes in
on the Guarantee Fund 20 a large
amount.
A large number of the members of
the two big stock boards have gone OF
an excursion by a special train to Vir.
ginia City.
An effort was made at the Pacific
Exchange yesterday TO bust
ness, but no formal resumption of
business by either of the big boards
will probably take place until the
| opening of the banks Of California and
Nevada.
Lucky Baldwin was yesterday unani-
mously elected Director of the Bank of
| California. This Is generally consid-
cred point second in favor OF resump-
ton, as Baldwin is known to be OF
the heaviest creditors of the bank.
