NOT A CoUNrY.-Phelps, the Repub-
lican candidate for Governor of Cali
fornia, in his speech at Santa Rosa the
other night, declared that it 10 not
probable that the Dollies will carry a
single county In the State at the cleo
ton next. Wednesday. He particularly
emphasized the statement by calling
on his hearers to mark the prediction
as one on which he was willing to
stake his reputation as . political
prophet. He ls doubtless pretty near
tho mark, but We think he should

The total depreciation since last SAT-
urday in the value of the ten mines
represented in the above, amounts to
$l4,564.40O, divided IS follows: Vir-
ginia Con-, $s,234,OOo; Ophir. $2,419,-
200; California, $1,O5O,OOO; Overman,
1888 200; Savage, 1916 900; Mexican,
$500 900; Chollar, $72s 1000; Belcher,
$624,0OO; Eureka Consolidated, $780,
600; Gould & Curry, $240 900. This
constitutes only about one-ninth Of the
list, though as we have selected the
higher priced stocks, the comparative
falling off is of course greater in pro-
portion. 1t is fair to assume, however,
we think, that the aggregate s~hrinkage
Of the whole list since Saturday is
more than fifty millions of dollars.
Who has lost this vast sum it is idle to
conjecture, but we greatly fear that, as
usual, much Of It has been taken from
the pockets of those least able to stand
it. People were confident Of a lively
market this Fall, and when the ad-
vance came a few weeks since all who
had money rushed in hoping to benefit
themselves by the rise. 1t was in fact
the eagerness OF the public to get in
In time that gave the market such an
impetus in the first place. We have
nothing whatever in explanation of the
serious break of yesterday. Whether
It may be attributed to = gigantic bear
ing operation of the mining kings or
il due to legitimate causes, we are
equally in the dark. 1t is probable,
however, that the market having
moved too soon for the powers that be,
. grand smash through the concerted
action OF the prominent dealers was
determined upon. If this be so, it is
quite likely that the bottom has moi
yet been reached. In any event it will
take sometime 10 restore confidence
without which a lively market at ad'
vsnced rates is entirely out of the
question. Alter . disastrous panic i
always takes time to bring about 9
healthy reaction. We should not bt
surprised, therefore, if shares wen
still lower; certain it is, unless al
signs fail, that there can be no immed
late general advance. The dead and
wounded must be cared for first.

JAMES STARK.-Au old residents OF
the Pacific Cost remember James
Stark, the tragedian. He was one of
the pioneers of the drama in Califor-
MIA, and also in Nevada, where he at
one time became a resident. From
Lawrence Barrett, says the Virginia
Chronicle, we learn that poor Stark is
living in New York, supported by the
actors, his ability to support himself
having gone forever. His organs OF
speech are paralyzed, and it is only by
the most painful effort that he can ar
ticulate a word.

they got no further than the steel lin
