Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1878-01-09

STOCKs. - Yesterday morning the stock
dealers were delightfully."- amazed at the great
appreciation of value in the south end stocks.
Alta was taxed up to $50 by the knowing ones
New York and Silver Hill would certainlyreach
$40 or SIS, others said and so on. When the
evening list came i'll there was marked de-
probation in the prices, and those who were
SO confident of a steady increase i'll values
in the morning, feel just as much the other
way now. 1t is certainly to be hoped that
the decline last evening will only be Temporary
and that the most sanguine stock speculator
will realize his EXTREMIST visionary expecta-
tions; but stocks nowadays are very uncer-
tam, therefore sell when you can make a
profit and don't wait for top notch figures
THE AU FAT CLUB-A CORRECTION. The
APPEAL Of yesterday morning made the mis-
take of saying that the Au Fait Club would
hold their regular party last evening; and we
seemed to ratify the statement by the aver
p1ent that we had been presented with ticket
Of invitation thereto-which is a very crafty
ing fact. How we made the mistake is al
most unaccountable; but the frozen truth is
that the said Club meeting will take place on
Friday evening, as usual. And it is further
more to he said that those who desire to pos
aess themselves Of tickets viii apply to Mr..
Peter Cavanagh Jr., Treasurer OF the Club.

MORNING APPEAL
CARSON CITY, NEVADA.
The Proprietor of the MORNING APPEAL
takes this method of informing the public
that with the New Year are begun certain
changes and reforms which, he fatters him
self, Will make his paper more attractive, as
it certainly will be made more available to
every one. Thus, the
Price of weekly Subscription by Carrier
IS REDUCED
FROM SO TO Is CENTS.
THE LOCAL DEPARTMENT
VIII be, more than ever, the special feature
of the paper.
THE POLITICS OF THE APPEAL
Will be, as always,
Strictly Black Republican. or :. RadicaI:''
And the editor anticipates with pleasure the
probability that in supporting the next Re
publican candidate for the Presidency, he
will support
GENERAL GRANT IN 1850.
Meantime the APPEAL will nail the Old Flag
to the mast, and neither surrender to the
Adherenss of the Lost Cause.
Nor give its support to policy which
Demolished the Republican Party of
The south,
And sought to
Handc,s1 1t in the North.
In short, the MORNING APPEAL will keep
on an even keel and stand by the friends of
Republican principles, Republican usage and
the Republican leaders of tried courage and
ability.
But the APPEAL will be especially valuable
as an
ADvERsTIsENG MEDIUM
Because of its greatly enlarged circulation. |
Also it will be, as heretofore, a carefully |
conducted
FAMILY JOURNAL,
Devoted to the promotion of good taste, and

ENGLISH GRAIN MARKETS.
Large Arrivals from America and Ger
many, and Pacific War News Causing
General Decline in Prices.

Large Arrivals from America and Ger
many, and Pacific War News Causing
General Decline In Prices.
LONDON, Feb. 26-The Mark Lane Er-
press says it is likely cold and uuseason-
able spring may be experienced as we have
had but little winter weather, and the failure
of last years wheat crop was largely attrib-
utable to an action of late frosts. The offer
ings os English wheat at Mark Lane and pro-
vincial markets continue scanty. Neither has
there been much inducement for farmers to
thresh, as prices have suffered decided re-
lapse by reason of the less agitated state of
political affairs. Foreign wheat has also
reached our shores in greater quantity owing
to the action of America and Germany, whose
united contribution to last Mondays arrivals
amounted to nearly $4,000 quarters, while
the imports into Liverpool have also been de-
cidedly large. The temporary enhancement
of values have been lost, and with it, appar
emily, all demand, as business moved
within the narrowest limits, and sales were
only practicable in the merest retail way, at
a decline of shilling on wheat. Feeding
stufs are also about six pence lower. There
has been very little pressure to sell, and
holders appear perfectly content to abide the
issue of political affairs, which can scarcely
reduce values much below the present level
for some time, even if the Eastern question
finds its ulti mate solution in a pacific man
ner. With large arrivals at the ports, the
call for floating cargo trade for wheat is very
dull, and prices have given way fully shil-
ling. Maize, with large arrivals, has declined
six pence. Barley, dull and cheaper to sell.

More Enterp rise.

The rapid development of the firm of Coy
kendall Bros. Co. to the leading retail dry
goods house in this city, and within the past
few months to wholesale business without
precedent, has been matter of congratu-
lation as we'll as surprise to their many
friends who were aware even of their
energetic business ability. Upon en-
barking in the wholesale business
only a few months since, upon
the removal into their new store on Nicollet
avenue, they deemed themselves prepared
for any emergency in trade that might arise.
So astonishing, however, was the develop
ments of their wholesale trade, owing to
their low prices, first class goods,
and business reputation throughout this and
adjoining States, that they were compelled to
close their immense retail department., and
devote their entire attention to wholesaling
The stock of VIM. Murphy of st. Paul was
purchased as nucleous for their increased
stock and at prices that will enable them to
undersell any house in the East or West.
These goods together with large invoice
from the Eastern markets presented to them
a new difficulty, which could only be met by
a removal from their present quarters
into more commodious one, although
the building which they now
occupy, was built for them with special re-
ference to their wants, as they supposed, for
years to come. Accordingly, the mammoth
stone and brick block on Washington Avenue
North has been secured, which was built
with special reference to the wholesale trade,
and contains, besides Office room, three ele-
CANT, well lighted and ventilated rooms
44x1OO feet EACH This building will be lit

NEW CHARTER FOR M1NNEApoL1s.

Il Secret Scheme Witch Some One Wishes
to Cro,cd Through. on the quiet.
An act has just been brought down from
Hennepin county providing for an entire
change of the city government of Minneap-
oils. It contemplates dividing the city into
six wards, two on the east side and four on
the west; three aldermen to be elected from
each ward to hold office three years, but at
the first election, to be elected respectively
for one, two and three years.
It provides for uniting the school boards
and fire departments of the two divisions,
and for pooling the division debts as one
general debt.
It also provides that fifty thousand dollars
shall be expended for erecting water works,
or securing water supply for the East Di-
vision, and for issuing fifty thousand dollars
of eight per cent. city bonds for that pur-
pose.
Also that John S. Pillsbury r. B. Lang
don and 0. G. Merriman, be appointed COM
missioners, with full powers to determine the
manner of erecting water works, or securing
water supply, and to contract for and pur-
chase water power and material and labor for
the water works OF water supply.
The section with regard to water works
also provides that if water supply is taken
from the water works on the west side, that
no portion of the cost of said works, or any
necessary increase of the same, shall be con-
sidered part of the fifty thousand dollars
above mentioned, but that the whole of said
sum shall be expended on the east side. and
in laying pipe across the river.
There are many other provisions in the
bill which are very lengthy, nearly ninety
pages of foolscap. Time and space will not
permit reference to them more particu-
larly.
The bill seems to have been kept quite a
secret, and we understand the reporter of
the Tribune was requested not to publish
anything concerning it.
We are also informed that some members
of The Hennepin county delegation will not
consent to the passage of the bill without
having those portions which, as above, pro-
vide for change of city government and is
suance of bonds, submitted to 70 Re of the
people. 1t seems strange that any member
should, at this late period of the session, sfa
vor it's passage without such submission.
From what we hear from citizens of Mime
apolis, if they do, such members will proba-
their constituents hereafter,

evening. Everybody in attendance was
perfectly entertained and everything passed
off as smoothly as their paper shells glide
through the water of Lake Calhoun.
Edward Gallagher, a resident Of Western
avenue, while employed Oh the st. Paul q
Pacific road, yesterday, in some manner; got
his right foot under falling iron rail. The
bones were completely crushed, and the
boot for that foot will be of very peculiar
shape hereafter unless very skillful treat
nent is resorted to.
Coykendall Bros. & Co. are to remove
into the elegant new block on North Wash
ington avenue, directly opposite the one
now occupied by Anthony Kelly d Co.
Their present store will be occupied with q
stock of dry goods to be put in by Messrs.
Eastman & Goodfellow, formerly with H. B.
Claff1in & Co., of New York.
A man arrived in the city yesterday and
gave his name to the police as Chas. Piller,
claiming that he had been followed for a
number of miles by band of persons who,
wrongfully he claimes, took him for horse
thief and proposed to hang him to the first
tree. He managed, he says, to escape from
them, but in sleeping in swamp, badly
frOZe both of his feet. The matter will be
investigated.
The lecture of Rev. II. A. Stimson was
largely attended last evening, and proved a
rare practical and intellectual treat. The
subject was treated in thorough and ex-
haustive manner and it's local application
added to its interest. Many were of the
opinion, however, that Mr.. Stimson knew
much more about cart and Art culture in
the abstract than he did about it's local APP
plication to the trimmings of church.
Those red bricks have often been compared
to red flannel trimmings on silk dress, and
those very brick probably kept fifty persons
away from fine lecture.

The Workingmen.

The Workingmen's Union held another
largely attended meeting at their hall night
before last and expressed their desires and
sentiments by adopting the following reso-
lutions:
WHEREAS, All that honorable men ask and
desire to receive before the law is Justice and
equality; and,
WHEREAS, The laboring men of this county
and State, and more particularly of this
union, feel that, as honorable men, they
have not had that equality, but, on the other
hand, have been unjustly Disseminated
against, there being but few laws on our
statute books that do not jeopardize our
interests; and,
WHEREAS, Security has been given to
property time and time again with no other
advantage than to further the designs of dis
honest men: and,
WHEREAS, Exemption laws, corporation
laws, bankruptcy laws, ETC., have been most
wrongfully made and used to defraud and
cheat the laboring class, which have forced
many of us to the verge of starvation; and,
WHEREAS, The workingmen of Minneapo-
lis having in the present Legislature num-
Der of their most able men as Representa-
tives, and others who seem DESTROYS of be-
friending us, therefore be it
Resolced, That it is the opinion of this
union that all such laws as herein mentioned
should be repealed, in order that all men
may be placed upon an equal footing, and
forced to pay their just and honest debts.
Resozred, That if this be impossible and
capital must have its exemptions, then also
must labor, that it may not be cheated on
the one hand and robbed on the other.
Resozoed, That we most firmly believe, if
exemption we must have, that $4,000 on q
homestead and $50 on wages is the nearest
equality and the highest amounts that should
be exempted.
Resotged, That our legislative committee is
hereby instructed to lay before our delega-
ton from this city these facts with the re-
quest that they labor for these ends.

Suspended by His Thumbs.

Pavit, the inhuman wretch who so
severely maltreated the orphan boy once in
his possession, as detailed in The GLOBE,
begins to know how it is himself. His fell
low prisoners, upon hearing the details of
his crime, were so indignant at the time of
his Incarceration, that he had to be confined
to a cell in order to protect him from very
rough treatment at their hands. Believing
that the indignation had subsidized, Sheriff
Thompson yesterday removed the forced re-
straint and allowed him the freedom of the
prison corridors. Returning shortly after
he found that the prisoners had suspended
him by his thumbs to his cell, and again did
he have to go into solitary confinement.
The prisoners who took part in that suspen-
sion ought to be given their freedom. It
served him right.
