ATEoCIoUs CMME-A BALTIMORE LADY
CHLoEOEoRMED AND OuTRAGED.-The annals
Of diabolical crime have another atrocity
added TO them--this time the victim being
Baltimore lady. The names Of the par
ties are not made public by the police, but
the circumstances are stated thus: Early
last week gentlemanly-l ooking person
stopped at leading hotel in Baltimore, and
during his stay advertised for q governe>s
for his children. His advertisement was
answered by a gentleman OF this city who
was guardian for i young and estima-
be lady. The advertiser represented
himself a. wealthy citizen OF AL
cXandrla. Va. with children, for whom
lie needed governesS. The guardian OF
tn, Young lady was perfectly satisfied with
these representations, and made arrange
mrntS Tor his ward to accompany the advcr
tj,rI 10 Alexandria. They arrived at Wash
iugton last Friday evening, and the fellow
told the unsuspccting lady that there was no
way To get 10 Alexandria that night. He
then took her 10 the National Hotel and ell
gagged two adjoining rooms. During the
might he entered her room, chlorOIormed
her, and hrutally outraged her person.
When she recovered her senses the villain
threatened 10 Kill her il she made any
cutlery. On Saturday, she having utterly
refused TO 90 with him to Alexandria,
he placed her on the 5:45 p. NJ. Philadel-
phia express train. When the train stopped
al Baltimore he led her from the car,
and, leaving her on the platform, jumped
on the train as it moved OH to Philadelphia.
The lady at once went to her guardians
house and told HIM her sad story, where
upon he Immediately communicated with
the police department here and at Wash
ington. The police at Philadelphia were
also notified. The officers have full de-
<cripti0n Of the scoundrel, and no efforts
will be spared to secure his arrest.
Al the hotel in Washington the fellow re-
gistered under an assumed name, represent
ing on the register the young lady TO be his
sister, and halling from Richmond, Va. He
told the hotel clerk that his sister was an
invalid, and that he wanted room near
hers. The notebooks show that Friday
hight he had numerous "extras" in his
room, such as whiskey, ale, &c. lie left
without paying his hotel bill. baltimore

of this idea, and in order to hold the trade of the United States at his command and control, ,gand for no other purpose; Lela nd Stanford and bis associates have built a road, with money they stole by mortgaging their Central Pacific road, from Los Angeles to Fort Yuma, and. from San Francisco to Fort Yuma, on the Colorado. Stan- ford & Co. knew when they built the road that it would never pay, and that in time it would have to be taken up and located in some different manner, and Stanford & Co. to-day know that they have got an elephant on their hands when it is known that by rail and steamer they cannot altogether carry into Arizona over 2G'OOO tons of freight, and they cannot expect to get, in the present crude and undeveloped state of the Terri tory, over W,o0C.
 They have bilked themselves and their bondholders deliberately and solely for the purpose of go- ing into Congress in a common pool with Thomas A. Scott-the most stupendous fraud that ever attempted to swindle a whole community, as he did San Diego, ! but, happily failed - and there humbugging the southern mem- bers, and those well disposed to a southern competing line of road to a free harbor on the Pacific coast into voting them forty mil lions of the peoples money, to go into the pockets of these frauds, and save them from insolvency, or at least one of them from open insolvency, the other having col. lapsed in '73. But the people of San Diego, few and weak as they may be, say the vile thing shall not be consumated. and they Will fight Leland Stanford, tooth, toe nail and hair, until his financial suicide is openly declared, his rot tenness being already. apparent. aud we have the means to fight with, toos AS long as there Is a fish in this bay or honey bee storing wealth for us, and the cattle and sheep of our mountains furnish this little people with a subsistence, so long shall we scorn an unholy alliance to rob a nation out of an open direct and com peting high way to the free port of San Diego, on the Pacific.
 Here is another vail from San Diego, published in the Ne'es. and also signed "Vox "- three articles by the same "Vox."
 The only way under heaven whereby San Francisco can ever hope to save the trade of Arizona is by assisting San Diego to build the one hundred and eighty seven miles of road to Yuma, ship goods here by water from all parts of the word. and we can save the territorial trade to this coast. As Stanford & Co. would have it, they ruin themselves and poison and stunt the growth of the Ter ritory. In the mean time eastern men and roads steal the trade.

" "That Military Monopoly"

Our reference to the military monopoly of telegraphic news and communication between Yuma and California seems to have wor- ried. the Arizona Star, and it de. votes one of it's little columns to the above caption. It has heard of various kinds of monopolies, but never of military monoply. Where all telegraphic communi- cation has, to pass over one wire, those who control that wire have g. monopoly; when it is controlled by the military it becomes a mili- tary monopoly, just as much as what the StGr calls a private tele- graphic monopoly. A monopoly may be beneficial. .. or it may be abused. We have never hinted even that the Military Telegraph line has net been beneficial to Ari- zona, though we see no cause for the ranting gratitude of the Star. The line was built by the United States government and has been managed by its, officers. Who is the United States government The people. Who pays the mili- tary? The people. If the employ ed have served the employer well and faith fully, the latter may be satisfied, but there is no call for gratitude. And the practical re- suit here is that when we wish to send a telegram to California, and find that military business has precedence on the old fine, we can send it by the new.
 As tothe latter paragraph of the &dr'sarticle weean join it heart Ny, we have always advocated the idea of the whole country be- ing netted with wires. under gov. ernment control and connected with the post office department. The SENTINEL will not oppose such system, even though the Star kindly says we ruay.

BOsh.

The following is from the San Diego News. The story about Hendricks we are surprised tosee printed in this Democratic journal at the time we thought it rather told against MT. H. or at least showed his ignorance of silver ores.
 And when San Diego speaks of her hitherto idol Tom Scott in such terms what are we to think of it's former advice to us to advo- cate his interests and the enc Mexican with his WheelbarrOW at work on our hill:
 Have you made. 8 pool with the virgin Tom Scott to com bine and steal an enormous subsi- dy, and leave San Diego and a compelling line out in the cold? Has thomas given you his right of way and land grant across Ari- zona, and the lands he tried to steal from San Diego to boot, in consideration of half the bonds to be guaranteed by Congress? If so, San Diego, in the interest of the nation and of competition will undertake to see that you make no delivery of the goods promis- ed. No nore fraud or sinking Credit Mobilier swindles in ours, if you please. Give us an honest bill for direct national highway to free port at the nearest point on the Pacific. by the most prac' ticable and direct route, is all we ask and all the nation will give. "A naked Indian passing, one of the railroad magnates said, that's the way we'll be going round af- ter we've put all we've got into steel rails" Many is the true word spoken in jest; and if they had spelled the word Stedi, and waited a year from now, when the next Congress shall have re- fused to sanction their big steal, and when all their notes had gone to protest as their partner Scott's did in Texas in 73, and the sheriff of San Diego county was flying up and down their desert railroad with a gang of vaqueros to try and lasso a locomotive to levy on, then the words of the gentleman would fit; and. we think, at about that time the breech clout of the poor Indian, at Yuma, will fit either one of the great desert steal railroad kings.

Sour Grapes,

The San Diego NeUs, a very weakly paper, too young yet to come out of OF into the World, prints such nonsense as the follow ing ; true it signs the often forged name "Vox Populi," but still must be considered as authorizing the article. There is too much of it for us to give the whole, and we fancy the sample will be suffi- cient:
 SUICIDE OF LELAND STANFORD.
 MEssRs. EDITORS: What a sen- satiOn would be created through out this coast if the wires should, at no distant date, flash along the startling and lamentabie news indicated in the caption. We are not speaking in a personal, but a financial sense, as we write tb is article and we here now, at this writing, make the prediction that in less than one year from this date will be announced the failure of Leland Stanford. Stanford is b,lStec, and the rock he split on was when he tried to freeze out poor San Diego, who happened to be the representative of the idea of a competing line of road to the Pacific coast. It won't do, MT. Stanford, you and Tom Scott can't pass your .jOb :; we are strong enough to kill it. because we have the facts and the right, and have brains and money to show the figures by star engineers and to. pographers to an intelligent Con- gress, and if you fail to get your steal through at the next session, two years running of your seven hundred miles to Yuma will sui. eide you financially, and no Gold smith Maid, Rarus, or editorial champagne will ever bring you out.
 In the mean time we will eat our baracouta in peace, trusting in the intelligence and justice of Congress in appropriating the na- tions money, and the good sense of the people in forcing them so to do. The United States is too big bull to be swung over the shoulders of a few Sacramento tinkers, grown great on the steal ings incident to great and popu. lar war which rendered necessary the building Of the Central and Union Pacific railroads. Embold- en by their success in that scheme they now own and control steam ship lines, run side railroads and legislatures, and employ Dukes to corrupt Congress and prevent the consumatiop of a necessary and popular opposition and competing line of southern railroad to the Pacific coast at San Diego, a meas ure of the greatest necessity and wisdom, and which has been en- dOrsed by the purest and bright est intellects and public econo- mists of this nation. In pursuance

UNDER the head of local mat.

UNDER the head of [" local mat. ter" The Arizona Star has an article about eating jackasses J calls it "spicy morsel." This may be 8 fact thongh having seen it in the Stdr leads us to doubt it, nor did we know that 6asrros were a local dish at Tucson though thoroughly convinced that there are many there. Another local statement of the Star is; that uthe SENTINEL don't like military mo. nopoly" this much is true, we don't like any monopoly, but it goes on to say. "It likes private telegraph monopoly" This is the reverse of truth, we do not like it, though the chances are we should be better served than we have been hitherto - There being two lines of telegraph at present to Yuma from California. supple mented by the private wires of the s. P. R. R. Go. with a pros- pect of the western Union running in it's wires also, we are free from the baleful effects of a monopoly west of us; and we trust soon 10 be better served than we have been for the past month from the Eastward or that competing line will be pushed forward, and let us whisper it, we are informed there is good reason to hope there soon will be. Only this week a telegram from Prescott was twen- ty four hours in reaching us. <
 What makes the Star so fond of every thing military? we would suppose it had had enough before this. Its allusion to- our law know ledge is beyond us, we have never pretended to be posted, and per fectIy agree with the Star that we fought to be we'll posted in the law" we even wish the Star were also, for every newspaper ought to be.
