question, and he wished Kellogg to go
to Washington with all the support
that could he given him here.
Speaking of Nichols course. the
same authority says: He has attempted
things which he could not lawfully do,
we're he Governor, by removing Off
GERS of the police without trial, and by
appointing Judges of the Supreme
Court where no vacancies existed. 1t

THE CITY (.) OF EUREKA.

A day or two ago u readers were
informed by our Carson dispatches
that of our Represe ntatives in the
Sta'e Assembly had introduced a bill
for thel incorporation of Eureka. In
our local columns of yesterday it was
noted that a protest against the passage
Of Mr.. Baily's bill was being circulated
among our citizens.
We have before this alluded to this
matter OF incorporation in III editorial
columns. We have sought to show
that we have no prediction in the
premises; that, while our Judgment
might incline us in favor of a suitable
charter, we recognize that the determin-
alton Of the matter belonged Of right to
the property-holders and taxpayers of
Eureka. The SENTINEL has no wires
to pull to secure the passage of an in.
corporation act, NJ ak to grind in the
event of an Incorporation act being
passed. The interests of Eureka are
tho interests of this journal.
We insist therefore that no bill in
cooperating the town should be en-
acted into a law, without the consent of
ouripeople. We insist, moreover, that
a protest should not be signed against
the passage of q bill, of the provisions
OF which the signers Of the protest
must Of necessity be uniformed.
We appeal. therefore, to our legisla-
tors in Carson to forward us the t.xt OF
the bill, which it is proposed to enact,
IN order that u substantial men may
Lave an opportunity Of scanning its
provisions; aud we also appeal to the
circulators and signers of the protest
TO which we have alluded that they
shall defer action until a DRAFT of the
bill shall be laid before them and they
shall be able to act Understandings.
Let the people wait a few days and
then they can determine wha. they
should approve and what condemn.

How the Coin wRs Divided.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. ii.
The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Consolidated Virginia
took place this afternoon. Messrs.
Mackey. Flood, O'Brien and Judge
Heydenfeldt were present on behalf of
the management, and S. p. Dewey
represented the indictments. The
Office was crowded and much interest
manifested. The Secretary's report
was submitted. The receipts for the
year, including the balance ontstand-
ing at the last report, were $l7,470,-
JOG so. The principal item Is the gross
product OF the mine, amounting to
Sl6,646, III II; overdrafts in Nevada
Bank, $569,055. The managers previ-
ously stated that much Of this over
draft was to save a ruinous discount
on silver. The disbursements includ-
ed the bullion to balance that unsold
In bank, amounting to $3.50 1886. The
other principal items were, dividends
number % to 32 inclusive, Sll 1856, 900;
reduction of ore, 81, LOG, 2S5; bullion
discount, 1892. 900; salaries, $IS6, 800;
ore purchases. $453 900; supplies, $685.
$50; taxes, S236,00O; G.. Il G. shaft,
S2OS, 600; assaylng, legal expenses, etc.,
accounting for the. balance. 3. =.
Dewey attacked Mr.. Flood sharply, ac-
cusing him of Withholding informa-
ton as to the condition and prospects
OF the mine and the probability of
passing the January dividend, when a
candid explanation a few weeks ago
would have saved the public millions
OF dollars. Mackey, Flood and Hey
denfeldt defended the manage
ment and claimed that It was i'm
possible ito anticipate developments
OF two or three days or a week. They
could not promise anything tor the
future for a certainty, but the MANAGE
ment had done their best. The old
board OF trustees were reelected, the
opposition ticket receiving 32,335 votes.
A resolution was adopted to hereafter
place a monthly statement OF receipts
and expenditures on file in the Office
for the benefit of stockholders. A
proposition that the company pur-
chase the Pacific mill, owned by
Flood IL O'Brien and used for crush
ing Consolidated Virginia ore. was
voted down. The discussion during

The House Committee on Pacific
Railroads has authorized it's chairman
to report the so-cailed compromise
Texas Pacific Railroad bill to the
House at the first opportunity, with a
recommendation for its passage. The
vote ordering the bill reported was
unanimous.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. H..
There is no change IN the situation
this morning. The orders of General
Augur, forbidding aggressive move
by either party, will doubtless
prevent d collision. All eyes are on
Washington, watching events. Gov
M Packard has commissioned A. 5.
Badger Major General of the Louisiana
State National Guard, and ordered him
to organize the First Division to-day.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. II.
1t is reported that Capt. McGloin's
company of Nichols militia has taken
possession OF the office of the Recorder
of Mortgages and Register Of Convey
ance. 1t is doubtful whether an cleo.
ton for Senator will lake place to-day,
even il a quorum of the joint Assem-
bly, can be had, which is doubtful. 1t
is understood to be the policy of some
members 10 prevent an election until a
solution of present difficulties in re-
gard to the State government is settled.
1t is generally conceded that the ques-
ton turns at present upon which OF
the Supreme Courts is the legal one,
and on this subject authorities at
Washington are being fully informed
by both sides.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.
A Tribune Washington special says:
Five thousand stand of arms have
lust been received at the Washington
arsenal, and it is reported that an in
creased amount OF military supplies
will also be gathered here. This Is be-
lieved to be part OF the preparation re-
ferred to by the President in ar inter-
view published this morning for the
protection of public property in the
District of Columbia and the preser-
walton of peace.
Morton expressed an opinion to-day
that the Democratic meetings held in
this city and the West were for the
purpose of arranging for a large gath
ering in Washington at about the time
the electoral o is counted, to over
awe the constituted authorities in the
exercise of their duties; and he an
nounced his intention of seeing wheth-
or some means could not be devised
for providing against any threatened
demonstrations.
Many of the more conservative DEM
ocrats are convinced that the meetings
of Monday were ill.timed and calcu-
lated to prejudice their case in the es-
timation of the people. They re-
greet especially some Of the indiscreot
u~tterances of their more excitable ora
tors.
NEW YORK. Jan. 10.
A Times Washington special says:
Senator Morrill,, of Vermont, tonight
entertained the celebrated silver cur
rencya advocate Cernuschi at dinner and
invited several Senators and Members
of the House to listen to n statement of
his guests views Oh the silver
question. 1t now begins to look as if
other important questions of the Win
ter would really crowd silver legis-
lation over to the nexts session.
An Inter- Ocean Washington special
says: Senator Jones is now in the

sit and hear additional testimony.
Jones does not anticipate that the Sem
ate will act On BANDS silver bill I'M

The following o OF the dis
covery and working of gold mines in
China we extract from the London
Mining Journal. This is WI excep-
tional event in the history of gold min
ing and almost without precedent in
the history of China. 1t has yer been
the policy of the Chinese Government
to restrict rather than to foster The pro-
duction of the precious metals. Min
ing in any shape even coal mining,
they look upon with disfavor; but an
abundant currency they look upon as
an u%nmitigated evil; and the authori-
ties have ever been active in suppress
ing gold mining. The new district lies
some five hundred miles east by north
from Pekip, near the Corean frontier:
"Mr. Adkins, the British Consul at
Newchwang, states in his report this
year that there has been much trouble
of late causod by gold miners in tho
northern portion of the province, the
Chinese finding difficulty in suppress
ing gold mining, owing very likely to
many of the miners being from the
territory Of their powerful neighbor.
The district Of Kirin is very rich in
gold; and the Consul gives an account
of the valley of CHA III Kou, some
thirty miles long, in which there are
rich diggings about five or six days
journey east by south from kirin and
Newchwang. The veins of quarts in
the hillside are very numerous. The
quartz when dug is roasted, then
crushed, and then washed on a cradle
or slip, and so rude and imperfect is
the operation that it usually pays to
wash the quartz two or three times.
The quality of gold found in a ton Of
quartz varies; but a Chinese miner,
who showed the Consul a slab of
quartz brought from these diggings,
assured him that less than $3.50 worth
of gold per ton is considered a poor
yield. The miners in this locality are
said to be a lawless set, and to have a
very peculiar social organization. 1t
appears that a few years ago a formida-
bic band of brigands infesting the
Kirin province was put down by a
levy of hunters and foresters under
the leadership of a nan named Han,
and for this service the Government
gave him an honorary button and per-
mission to get gold in the mountain
district lying to the east Of Kirin. He
pays an annual tribute to 10000 taels
and governs absolutely within the linn
its Of his concession, and no official
writ runs there without his permission.
He has an armed following, and a
number Of miners and workmen in
his pay. Those who are not in his EN-
ploy pay a royalty for permission to
mine. The community under his rule
are said to plumber about a thousand,
and are principally Chinese, but a
number Of Coreans have recently
found their way into the territory, and
are working with considerable success.
The Consul hears that little of the
precious metal abides with the work
ing digger, who is beset by the usual
temptations to spend and squander."

ENGLAND has her little silver spite

latter has demonetized silver, and is
running the coin out Of the country.
The India house sends over for a few
millions every fortnight, at two per

thus make a fortune every day out OF
Bismarck's single standard Of value
scheme. Even in Faderland a subsid-
larry currency is now sadly needed,
