A NEWSPAPER MAN MURDERS !
CONDUCTOR.

A dispatch to yesterdays Enterprise, dated
Eureka, Nevada, June II, brings the follow
ing account of an atrocious and most cowardly
murder perpetrated in that city:
At about $50 o'clock on Sunday night, on
the arrival of the train from Palisade, Ed
Rickar, conductor on the Eureka and Palisade
Railroad, was shot by ALT. Chartz, one of the
lessees of the Eureka Republican newspaper
The difficulty occurred in front of the Inter
national Hotel just as the bus drove from
the depot. Rickar was on the bus and
Chartz seems t" have been lying in wait for
him. The difficulty grew out of personal
items in the Republican which were distaste-
full to Rickar. He had repeatedly requested
the publishers of the paper to cease the pub
LEGATION of his lame, but they would not or
did not desist. On Saturday reference was
made to the forthcoming marriage of Rickar
to young lady of Eureka. This exasperated
Rickar, and he sent a note to Chartz, saying
III substance: 'You crooked legged son of a
-, II you al Ow me name to go INTO your
dirty blackma ling sheet again | will churn
you until you cant see. This note was sent
Sunday morn; ING. During the day Chartz
showed the lie ter TO several parties and talked
of difficulty With Rickar on his return from
Paiisade in the evening As the bus drew
up Rickar, who was on the outside, jumped
to the ground. He was Immediately accosted
by Chartz and some words passed about set
Element of the affair. Rickar said ''We will
settle it RICH. here" and began to take off his
coat, when c lartz drew his pistol and fred
the ball taking effect in Rickar's left breast
and lodging in the spinal column. The
wounded man is still alive, but the doctors
say he must die. Chsrtz ran to the Jail and
gave himself up. There is universal indigna-
nation and strong talk of lyncning. Sheriff
Sias keeps the Jail closely watched. Rickar
was one of the most popular men in the coun-
ty. He was to have been married in two
weeks. His atfanced, Miss Herring, is con
stantly by his side. Rickar had no weapon
of any kind when shot down. The officers
threaten to arrest other parties as accessories
to the crime.

Slow MoTIoNs.-The Silver State of Mon
day complains of military red tape as follows:
The two companies of the Fourth Artillery,
which arrived here last Thursday from Fort
Alcatraz, were camped yesterday noon at the
Toll House, twelve miles from town. They
are escorting freight teams loaded with Gov
ernment supplies. When they arrived here
four days ago, no arrangements we're made
for shipping the freight, although there were
plenty Of teams ready to load. Such procras-
tination on the part of military officers at
time like the present is objectionable. 1t is
understood that these soldiers were placed
under General Towards orders the moment
they arrived at Winnemucca, and he, though
q man of undOubted courage, Is slower than

the part of the V. & T. R. R. company, and
is appreciated by the citizens of Reno, and we
trust will duly be taken advantage of by those
whom it is designed to specially favor Our
neighbors from Carson and the Comstock we
trust to see in force, and can assure them
that they will witness some fine racing and be
