THE INSURANCE. COMPANIES AND
VIRGINIA CITY. III

We were yesterday shown several letters from
managers of insurance companies in San Fran
cisco to agents here, says the E. terprise of the
23d instant, all manifesting q disposition to
withdraw insurance policies from holders in
Virginia City. Ourproperty-owner will see at
glance how serious . matter this promises to be.
The complaint is that the cisterns are not of
sufficient capacity that the pipes leading to
them are too small, and that the Fire Depart.
ment Is believed to be inefficient. There is no
just complaint on the score Of inefHciency of our
6remen. They are IS good men and as good
fremen as any city possesses. There was q feel
ing among our people that there was . want of
concert Of action among the 6remen ct the burn
ing Of the Masonic building, and also 1t the
burning of the Odd Fellows Hall: but we
think the main difficulty on both occasions was
. want Of water. There can be no question that
something must be Immediately done to obviate
this difficulty. Either new cisterns must be
constructed. or. what We think would be better.
reservoirs sufficient to contain million gallons
should be built by the city just under the pipes
Of the Water Company-with pipes connecting
with cisterns and hydrants belo~-pipes large
enough to supply cisterns % fast as the engines
could. under any circumstances, exhaust thenl.

REMOVAL.

LOCOMOTIVE DrrcHED.-The Eureka
Sentinel of the 18th chronicles the first
accident on the new railroad as follows:
About half past nine o'clock yesterday
morning, as the construction train from
Alpha was leaving q point where it had
stopped on Horseshoe Bend, about three
miles this side of the Summit: the loco
motive ran off the track, and after run
ming thirty O forty feet on the ties tum-
bled wei the embankment, which
was about four feet high. and fell on its
back with it wheels in the air. The train
had but just startedand was moving very
slowly, and as the track was in good con-
dition the accident can only be accounted
for as one of those unavoidable mishaps
which sometimes occur in ~railroading. in
spite of the most extreme caution. John
Bowden the engineer, suffered to the ex-
tent Of a slightly sprained ankle. There
were two other men on the engine at the
tiine' put tney Juhp6u Oh III time 10 SdVe
themselves from injury. With the ex-
ception of the two forward wheels of the
first car none of the rest of the train left
the track. Some of the hands went in a
hand car to Alpha, where they telegraphed
here for an engine, which was sent out
and the train was brought through after
q delay of a few hours.

LATEST FROM VIRGINIA CITY.

The FIRE occurred in Q small one-story
lodging house. on the east side of A street,
between Taylor and Union. kept by a
woman named Kate Shay, better known
as Crazy Kate" The origin of the
FIRE can be traced to the root Of all evil
alcohol. A party of gamblers and cour-
tesans had . wine party, and becoming
crazy drunk. got kicking up their heels
and tipped over the lamp, which ex-
ploded and set fre.to the house.
The fire extended from Taylor street on
the south, almost to the cemetery on the
north. and from Stewart street on the
west to G street. or perhaps farther, on
the east. The area of the ground trav-
ersed by the flames in about three-fonrths
of a mile in length, by half q mile in
width.
Mike Malone, Of Gold Hill. was killed
by a falling wall on Union street, between
d and G streets. Mr., O. d. Williams,
while climbing a burning stairway in a
building on B street, discovered two
small children asleep, apparently forgot
ten and left to their fate, and taking one
under each arm, he rescued them from
their perilous situation. and placed them
in the care of Pat Ennis. of the Emmett
Guard, where the owners can find them.
Another man, whose name we could not
learn, was killed, and another wounded,
by a falling wall Of Fredrick's jewelry
store.
The Gold Hill Netos says: A report
comes just as we go to press that six men
have been buried in the ruins of some OF
the falling building near the corner OF
Taylor and c street.. This needs confr-
nation.

The Virginia Chronicle announced last
week that the United States patent for the
mining ground Of the Union Consolidated
Company bad bsen received and filed.
This event has given the stockholders
great satisfaction. for the unsettled con-
dition Of the title has long been q
of considerable uneasiness. The credit
OF extricating the company from its diff
culties is mainly due toits energetic Pres
ident, Robert Sherwood. Of San Fran
cisco. He assumed direction of the com
pany's affairs abouta year ago. and found
everything in dire confusion. He en-
ployed the law firm Of CARRIER & Thorn
ton, to help him in Strengthening things.
and after investigating the subject, de-
clared it the worst case of complicated
title they had aver known-and they have
had some very bad cases. There vas a
conflict with the Sierra Nevada on the
north and with the Ophir on the south
in short, there was not a single foot of the
Union ground that was not in dispute.
Now Az is cleared up, and the company
has nothing to do but 60 ahead with the
work Of developing its ground. 1t will
be remembered that the Ophir had for
merly 1900 feet, Of this 225 feet on the
north was allotted by agreement to the
Union Con-, which had, previously, 600
feet. of which 800 was claimed by the 81
ezra Nevada. The Union patent includes
that 800 feet, making 1926 feet from the
north line of the Mexican to the south
line of the Sierra Nevada. The Union is
thus the largest location between the lat
ter mine and the Chollar.
The management of the company's af-
fairs must have been very honest and
economical, since with all the expensive
litigation, the stockholders this year have
been called upon for but one assessment.
and that of only 81 per share. The Trus-
tees are all gentlemen Of high standing
in mining and financial circles. Their
names are Robert Sherwood (President)
James r. Keene, John w. Coleman. Rob-
ert N. Graves, J. s. Follansbee. Under
this able directory We may expect soon
to see active work on the Union Co nsoli-
dated ground.

Notwithstanding that the product Of our mines

is by far the most extended and lucrative that is
given to California-such papers as the Marys-
Vile appeal and Sacramento Record Uni n are
making an insane war upon the mining stock
boards. apparently without any knowlege of
Whist they are advocating, and without any dis
position to be guided by any principles OF either
justice or business. Neither of them hesitate
to tell emigrants that it is wise for them to set
tie on q ranch in the foothills, although the peo-
pie who have lived there since 1s49, and de-
pended upon farming for a livelihood, have not,

They know that the best houses in San Fran
cisco, and the best homes in the country in Cali
fornia. are directly the product of Comstock
silver and yet they rail and rave against the
stock boards, as though through them all the
trouble on the coast originated. Both journals
predict immediate ruin to them, and exult
over the prospect as though it carried with it
the promise of infinite blessing the to coast.
And in every article there is covertly brought in
some vague statements equivalent to calling
the whole system of mining here a swindle,
and almost everybody engaged in that business
a swindler. We wish Tom Scott would hurry
up his railroad, and build from it q branch to
Nevada. We would like to try St. Louis as a
purchasing point for a while, and like to see
goods brought here without those receiving
them having to pay freights through to Sacra-
mento and back again. We bore patiently for a
good many years the absorption Of all our earn
ings by California and the Central Pacific but.
now that the people over the mountains-not
satisfied with taking all our earnings-haye
commenced to designate us as a community of
thieves. we would like a new deal, and a trial
with some other people.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 81.
The feeling on the street this morning is bet
ter than yesterday and there is less disposition
to magnify the disaster. Contradictory reports
are still floating about concerning the fire in the
Ophir shaft some processing to believe that the
damage is known by insiders to be much greater
than is admitted. The most authentic informa-
ton, however, is that the shaft has suffered no
material injury.
1t is reported, on apparently good authority.
that the new hosting works of the Lady WASH
ington mine, which are similar in power and
pattern to those of the Consolidated Virginia,
will be set mp on the latter mine without delay.
The works are now or the Lady Washington
grounds. but not yet in position, andcan be made
available on the Consolidated Virginia in a short
time. Well informed parties state confdentially
that the Consolidated Virginia will pay five dol
lars dividend for two or three months, until un-
der full Roadway again. No definite advices
have been received yet as to the extent Of the
damage to the several mining properties.
TIL total loss by the FIRE is now placed at from
5000. 900 to 81 .OOO. 900.
On the street this morning stocks stood about

A RUPTURE IN THE STocK Boards
The ''brotherly love" business promised
by the members of the Pacific Stock Ex-
change on the opening of that board. says
the Enterprise, has vanished into thin
air. 1t was announced at the time that
the two big boards would conduct their
business with a courtesyand mutual good
feeling that would astound small opera
tors; that they would sustain and assist
each other; that they would move smil-
ingly along arm-in-arm together. stealing
and giving odor. As We suspected would
be the case, arupture has occurred. The
members of the two boards. melted by q
dull market. have doubtless been swind-
ling each other; and the brokers of the
Pacific Exchange must have got the best
of it, for a resolution was adopted by the
San Francisco Board, on the 23d, inter-
dieting its members, under heavy penal
ties, from dealing in any manner with the
members of the Pacific. They can
neither buy stocks of them nor sell stocks
to them. The Pacific will probably adopt
a similar resolution. Perhaps this rup-
tire is just as we'll; for when thieves
fall out"-but the proverb is somewhat
musty.
