About ! O'Clock, this morning night.
Waterman Ross found o man lying In
the street In front Of Dr.. Shows house
on Centre street. An examination
showed that he had been shot In the
breast, but there was nothing from which
to judge a. to the cause which led to the
fatal deed. There was nothing to indi.
cate suicide, and the sum OF SIS 90
found in the pockets proved that rob.
berry was not the object. II. We'll and
others were called up and the body
recognized as being that OF 8. II. Oakes.

In Los Angeles. We learned yesterday
from ex.SheriH Rowland . circumstance
which throws Q curious light on the

were published at the time in every
newspaper In the United States, almost,
and the bloody trophy excited q thrill Of
horror on ito passage through Los An.
R,les. The whole incident had Q favor
Of medieval ierocity. 1t now appears
that the senior Chavez, the other
day. received . letter from one Gomez.
q member OF vasquez's band, dated at
Quiavsca, Sonora, informing him that
his son died there Of o fever about Q
month ego. T%hsrsupon the old mar
broke the silence he had heretofore
maintained. He had no reserve in tell.
lug bis friends that he knew the truth all
the time. When the so-callsd head OF
Chavez, Jr.. was brought to Los Angeles,
the father. not believing the story Of his
sons dsatt, called to see 1t. He at c
detected the cheat; but. fearful Of set.
ting the officers Of the law on bis sons
tracks, hs maintained Q discrssta and her.

him Of his obligation to maintain further
secrecy. The query naturally arises.

SENATORIAL.

Il 10 rather amusing to note that the
Democratic newspapers in this State.
together with the San Francisco Erdm.
iasr, are suddenly harpipg upon the idea
tina. William Sharon IL u candidate for
re. election as United States Senator from
Nevada. They are getting terribly ex-
srcissd over 1t and picking away at him
most viciously without waiting for him
to ssy whether he IL . candidate or not.
The Republican papers do not think the
matter worth discussing at this early date
and will not consider that Sharon wants
the cfacs again unless be says 90 himself,
and certainly until then 1t will b per.
fectly proper to wait. Other candidates
better entitled may present themselves
and psrhsps receive the hearty support
OF Mr.. Sharon and his friends. It II
hardly the correct thing for the Demoo-
rsey to thus hastily attempt to elect or
reject Sharon before the Republicans
have . say.
And in their rsbid discussion OF the
matter they eagerly bring forward the
name Of Col. ]. G. Fair a. much the bet.
ter man for the position. snlarsins upon
his excellent qualifications and declaring
him to BE- the best entitled to the Office.
and this. too. without any expressed
wish on his part to undergo the honor.
1t 10 Significant. however. that among
his qualifications they especially men.
tion his "lons sack" his elongated and
plsthoric bag Of dollars. They seem to
regard him a. . second Sammy Tildsn.
With Q "barl Of money. This very
excellent qualification. however. they
agree that Sharon also possesses. and
talk hunsrily about "Shsron's sack"
The longest aud most liberal sack took
every one Of them In the Jones and
Sharon campaign seven yssrs ego, and
such might sgsin bs the case. They are
too suspioiously ssssr and anxious In
this matter. Let Sharon and Fair
alone awhile. There II no need
Of worrying too soon. Moreover.
those long. sacked gentlemen are shrswd
enough to keep their aspirations to
themselves at present II they have any.
