NEEDED AT WASHING TON.

According to reports from the east.
the gold brokers of New York, whose
business was injured by the passage o
the silver bill, are endeavoring to get
Congress to modify its views on the sill
YER question. Instead of amending the
silver bill in the interest of miners, by
providing for free coinage of silver at
the mints. an effort is being made to get
Congress to adopt the single standard,
or at least increase the quantity of
silver In the standard dollar. It is as.
serted that the operations of the silver
bill has disappointed many of its old
friends and advocates, and that the
presence of Senator Jones is sadly
needed at Washington to stiffen their
Backs. The banks are now almost
masters of the situation. aud there is a
disposition among Congressman who
are not as familiar with the silver
question as Senator Jones. to quietly
submit to their dictation, and adopt
snch financial measures as they suggest
1t is therefore important to the great
interest of Nevada that Senator Jones
should hasten to Washington. II GER
tainiy is not necessary for him to re.
main in Nevada until the Legislature
convenes to attend to his. election. The
people at the polls on the 5th of Ecvem-
Der decided by an overwhelming ma
lority that he should be bis own suc-
cessor as Senator from Nevada. He
has no opposition for the position. and
his election is assured beyond all
reasonable doubt. 1t is therefore TO be
hoped by his constituents, who are
more than any other people ia the
world Interested in the silver question,
that he CAN make 1t convenient 10 re-
pair to Washington at once. aud
siiffvn the weakening silver men, so as
10 clrcumyent the schemes of the gold
brokers.

A NICE THING TO DO.

Commodore Schufeldt sailed from
Hampton Roads last Saturday on the
United States steamer Tlconderogs.
He goes to- the West coast of Africa.
thence around the Cape of Good Hope,
through the Indian Ocean, to Siam,
China and Japan. He is commissioned
as Embassador to- Corea. with extra.
ordinary powers, and will endeavor to
copclude commercial conventions with
Corea and other petty Asiatic powers.
The New York Herald says it is re-
ported on good authority that General
Grant has been specially invited by
Secretary Evarts, and the jolly old tar
OF the Wabash. Secretary Thompson.
to join the Nconderoga at the mouth of
the Congo river on the West coast of
Africa. and that he has accepted the in
vitation. He is made the. adviser of
Commodore Schufeldt in all his diplo-
matte movements. and is to remain on
board the Ticonderoga and return home
with that vessel. which is expected to
reach San Francisco few days after
the Presidential election in 1880.
Secretary Evsrts has hopes OF being
the Republican nominee for President
In 1880. He is said to be the brains of
the Administration, and as the chief
adviser of the President, shapes the
policy of the Government SO as to make
friends in the South. He fears Grant,
but il the Herald's information is re-
liable. has sent him to Hong Kong with
the hope that he will stay there until
after the next Presidential election.
Now the proper thing for Grants ad-
mlrers who. according to the Carson
Appeal and other Influential anti-Ad.
ministration journals are quite numer-
ems. TO do. is to go to work at once to
circumvent the schemes of the willy
Secretary by securing the Presidential
nomination for their .favorite. It would

A FARO ROOM TRAGEDY.
Two Men Killed i'm "a Row at silver
Reef.


From the Phoebe Recordl
From Alex. Veitch, who returned
from the East last Tuesday. and who
was 10 Silver Reef at the time of the
Occurrences. we learn sows of the par
ticulars of the killing of Henry Clark
and Sykes Griffin. 1t appears that
there has been grudge betwixt the two
for some tims past, which eliminated
last Sunday morning by the sho- ting
and killing of Henry Clark by Sykes.
Clark was shot twice-once in the heart
and'abdomeh-ard fell dead almost i'm
mediately. Sykes falling on top of him,
and Jimmy Clark on Sykes. While the
parties were down. Sykes was shot in
the ankle and hip, and had his skull
fractured by blows from some kind of
weapon. lie lived during Sunday, and
was to havs been buried on Monday.
He was not sensible from the time of
the occurrence until bis death. Several
parties were present during the fraoas,
but they declined to say anything about
it. claiming that there was so much
powder smoke in the room that they
could not see who inflicted the injuries
on Sykes, although the superstition is
that, as both of the Clark boys were
unarmed, Jimmy took away Sykes
pistol and did the business. The affair
occurred in the faro room of Cassidy's
saloon. Jimmy Cisrk'was arrested and
held under 81, 500 bail. The trouble
was caused by the faro dealer refusing
to receive 'jswbone" bets from Clark,
