Deciphering Secret Messages.

IT is said that Senator Sharon has
made complaint that messages sent to
him in cipher have been deciphered and
their contents given to others speculat-
ing in stocks, and the other Resident
Director. d. O. Mills, has ordered an
investigation. This decipher of dis
patches of large stock spectators is
not a new business, but, on the con-
trary, is an old one, and one of the ad-
mitted evils that follow stock gambling.
In the days of the suit between the
Potosi and Burning Moscow mines,
telegraph operator was sent from here
by some of the mining magnates to tap
the wires at Sportsman Hall, locality
about twelve miles distant from Placer
vile. In those days. the only tele-
graphic communication with Virginia
City was by this route. The operator
was detected, arrested and finally sent
to prison for q term of two years. A
few years since one of our present mill
i0naires, who was then not SO rich in
worldly goods. but fertile in resources,
made arrangements with an operator
in Virginia City to decipher the de-
spatches to Senator Sharon, those es-
pecially relating to Chollar. The
Senator then, as in the present case,
was not only surprised, but indignant
that what he considered his sole and
private information was in the posses
sion of this other stock operator long
before it had reached him. After spend
ing some time in trying to find the elm
wardness' of this marvel, he resorted
to strategy. He instructed the Super
intendent of the Chollar to forward
cipher dispatch, as usual, but which
was understood between them to mean
to the contrary Of what it was used for
formerly. The result was the stock
broker got the information first. as
usual, and made such . demand and
purchased SO largely of the stock that
it was advanced many dollars per
share, and at the very highest figure
was he loaded and his friends; but, un-
fortunately, Sharon was too hasty and
"let the cat out of the bag the first
day. Had he but kept the strategy Sc
cret for three days there would be to-
day one millionaire less. The operator
vas detected, and when confronted with
the evidence, admitted he was the one
who deciphered the dispatches of
Sharon and forwarded them to the
broker here. There were also well
authenticated stories afloat years ago of
how Hayward's dispatches from Crown
Point were deciphered and several we'll
known brokers connected with the
tampering. It is to be hoped the pres
ent Investigation will be thorough, and
check that betrayal of confidential mat
ter which operators by oath bind them
selves to keep secret.-Alta California.
