MANSLAUGHTER,
Trial Of she Murderers of Dan, d.
BradOVich.
~DEADwooD, d. r., June 10.


DEADwooD, d. T., June 10.
EDITOR S%ENTINEL; The trial Of Nav
and Blair, for the murder of Daniel O.
B~radovich, is completed, and as the
deceased, and the prosecuting witness
es, Millich and Martinovich, as we'll as
other witnesses, were all residents of
Eureka, an account of the trial NAV
interest your readers. After two days
spent in examining jurors, a jury was
obtained and the trial began. A. j.
Flanny, District Attorney, and Burns,
OF Chicago, conducted the prosecution;
while the defense was in charge of Col.
johnson, from Montana, VIM. George
Collins, from California; and MI. Mil
Ter, a shorthand reporter of the New
YORK Sun, took the testimony. The
prosecution examined sixteen Witness
es, n the defense fully as many,
Inc witnesses were first sworn; then
put IN custody of an officer until ex-
amlned, and were not allowed within
nearing Of the court until the testimony
was all in. After two days in exam.
lnlng witnesses and hearing of pleas
by counsel, the case was closed by Mr..
Burns, in a clear, concise, and even
eloquent summing up of evidence and
a recital of those facts that showed the
malice, the cool, deliberate intent, the
mind picture of Blair kneeling behind
the post, the sure aim OF the
death dealing revolver, the leaden
messenger sent upon its Journey OF
destruction, the deceased striving to
escape, his failure, his fall, and raising
upon his hand takes a farewell view of
earth and dies-all had telling effect
upon every person in the room, and as
Mr.. Burns sat down, not a sound was
heard, as all eyes turned to the Judge
to hear his instructions to the jury.
Judge Bennett began by saying that
nov the labors of counsel were over
theirs had but just began that the
vital moment had arrived when they
were to say, without prejudice, with
out fear, without favor, and taking into
consideration the credibility of wit
nesses, their relations to deceased, etc.,
upon the guilt or Innocence of these
prisoners, or whether they are guilty
OF a lesser crime than murder. After
reading from the penal code the def
nitions of murder aud m~anslaughter
in its various degrees, his Honor
sent the jury cut to decide, which they
did after remaining out eight hours,
bringing in a verdict of m~anslaughter
in the first degree. This morning they
were called for sentence, and in reply
to the question said they knew of no
reason why sentence should not be
passed, upon which the Judge SEN
fenced both to five years hard labor IN
the penitentiary at Fort Madison. Iowa.
A motion for a new trial was denied,
and ten days was allowed in which to
take an appeal to the Supreme Court of
the Territory. DEADwooD.

THE COST OF RUNNING A CIR.
Gus.

by the kindness of Montgomery
Queen we were shown through the
various side arrangements connected
with a circus, and also learned some
thing of the cost incurred in running
and transporting it through the coun-
try. Taking for example the trip
from Winnemucca to Eureka and
return to Palisade by railroad,
the n item of transportation was
$500. The daily expense includ-
ing salaries of performers and at
taches, feed of animals and board of
men, will reach 81 900 per day, which,
Tor the two days that the circus
was with us will bring the grand to-
tai to $4,000. 1t will be seer that large
houses are necessary to insure any
profit, and that two or three bad
nights eat up capital very fast. Mont
gomery Queen has a regular hotel in
connection with his establishment, and
has 90 steady customers, comprising
the hostlers, tentmen and hangers-on.
Inc riders board at the hotels, but it
mas been found that it ~ much better
to feed the rabble, as it keeps them
out OF town, away from saloons and on
hand when work is required of them.
A large tent is used for a stable, and
70 horses find accommodation under
It's folds. A dressing tent, divided
into apartments, for the ladies and
men, is also pitched in the immediate
rear OF the main tent, and the comfort
OF everybody is carefully looked after.
The utmost discipline Is maintained
and no attractions of the rules are al
lowed. Contrary to most of the cir
cuses travelling through the country,
Mr.. Queen does not allow his en-
ployes to disturb the peace and quiet
OF the various towns visited and is the
first to repress any signs of rowdyism.
Beside the immense number of tents,
wagons and paraphernalia, there are
70 horses and 100 men comprised in
the outfit of Montgomery Queens
circus, making it one of the largest ag-
gregations extant.

by the Administration for Selling the
northern States of Mexico, ex-senator
Stewart, who was mentioned as having
had an interview with Secretary Ev-
arts on the subject, gave, so far as he

Fighting.

The town was prolific with rows and
fights yesterday. The Celestiais started
the ball, a Chinman beating a woman
of his own race on Clark street, pound
ing her face to a jelly and keeping up
the amusement until a gathering
crowd, called to the spot by her
screams, forced him to desist. A
couple of Germans next attracted the
throng at a saloon on Main street, but
their efforts resulted in nothing more
than a harmless roll on the floor.
Excited by the warlike feeling preva-
lent, one James McAuley attempted
to defy the majesty OF the law, aspir-
ing to whip Constable Mckay, a feat
| which he failed in, and in consequence
| found himself in Jail on a charge of
disturbing the peace. Two Cornish
men ended up the days record by
battering each others c-ountenances,
but again the Constable stepped in
and the two wereescorted to Jail, where
they will be allowed to stay until

Mrs. RaIS(On.

The San Francisco Stock Exchange
corrects an unfounded rumor regard
ing the above lady as follows:
"Col. j. d. Fry desires us to say
that there is no truth whatever in
the idle ruinor that inadvertently
found a place in our columns yester-
day, concerning Mrs. kalston and the
object of her return to San Francisco.
Her drafts from Paris have not been
dishonored and her relations with her
financial agents here are of the most
friendly and cordial nature. The
Colonel says further that though the
lady's property is not large, what she
has is safely invested and yields her a
good and certain income. The Colonel,
with considerable indignation of mind
and vigor of language writes us: "You
are authorized to pronounce the report
a malicious falsehood and it's author a
contemplate liar"

The Refer has this to say of the
above property, in which gentlemen of
this place are largely interested: "The
incorporation of the Pleiades and the
ordering of hosting works can prop
erly be considered the entering wedge
to the proper working Of our mines.
From what we can learn the hosting
works ordered are not of inferior order.
The men who have the mine in charge
we do not think could be induced to
put up works which it would be nee
essary to replace by more powerful
machinery in less than a year. They
have a splendid piece of property and
we have every reason to believe it will
be worked as it should be-"

The attendance at the circus yester-
day afternoon was very slim, but the
evening performance was somewhat
better attended. AS o as the latter
was over the tents were struck and the
force soon had everything under way
for their next stand at Palisade. The
falling of in yesterdays attendance
was due to a number of petty imposi-
tons practised by those in charge,
and we venture to say that while they
may have added a few dollars to the
treasury the first day, the proprietor
was loser in the long run, many who
had determined on paying "A second
visit staying away on account OF the
extortions practised. The manage
ment advertised that reserved seats
could be procured for half a dollar.
but a bland young gentleman stationed
himself in the passage way and ex-
torted one dollar instead from those
who desired those extra accoinmoda-
tons. Many submitted rather than
seat their ladies on the hard planks,
and others refused, but all grumbled
at the imposition. sloppy lemonade
was retailed at fifty cents a glass; the
song book man was on hand, impor-
tuning the audience to invest in vulgar
ditties, and the invariable niger o n
cert wound up each performance. To
say that the latter was a fraud is to
draw it very mildly. The ring per,
Torrance is fair and the collection OF
animals worth seeing, but we advise
Montgomery Queen to reform the
above impositions and he will find
himself gamer in the long run. Al
least such would have been the cast
in Eureka.

COLLECTIONS FOR THE FOURTH.

AS we announced yesterday, the
Finance Committee appointed by the
gentlemen having in charge the ar
rangements for the Fourth of July
celebration, will call upon the citizens
OF Eureka to day to collect sufficient
funds to make a creditable display.
In this connection the committee in
charge desire us to say that they do
not propose to expend any large
amount in fireworks, etc. A salute
will be fired morning, noon and
evening, a procession of the military
and fire companies will probably be
had, and the literary exercises are in
the hands OF a gentleman who will
make hat portion of the programme
every way worthy of the occasion.
The general committee will prepare a
programme of exercises some time
this week, which we will duly publish.
IL there is any surplus coin left over
after the bills are paid they propose
to divide it between the three fire
companies, and that fact alone should
induce our citizens to loosen their
purse strings and give literally. There
- ilob a thA VI rupert oNutI III
the town who is not indebted to the
unrequited and unpaid for efforts of
the members of our fire companies for
the preservation of their property, and
who do not lean on them tor future
exemption from danger. Their organ
ization and efficiency is an important
consideration with the fire insurance
men, and if they did not exist, proper
ty would feel the difference in
the added per cent on their policies.
The town has not contributed any
great amount directly to their support,
and the boys have struggled along,
keeping up their organizations with
very little outside aid. An occasional
ball is about the only appeal they
have ever made, and the citizens
ought, for their W benefit, see that
they are put upon such a substantial
footing as not to depend upon spas
modic charity for their existence.
Think of these few facts, and when
the gentlemen call OF you to-day
give according to your means.
