lace's head, threatened to blow her
brains out if she made any noise, while
the other robber robbed her of her
diamonds, valued at $1,000. The rob-
bers escaped, and no clue of them has
yet been obtained.
Advices from Ohio all continue to
point to an overwhelming majority for
the Republicans in the pending cam
paign. The Greenbackers of Repub-
lican proclivities are fiocking to Fosters
standard since the Maine election ex-
tinguished their financial vagaries.
The Acting Commissioner of the Gen.
eral Land Office has examined the pa
pers relating to an adverse claim of the
Nevada Reservoir and Ditch Company,
sgainst the application for patent to
the north half of Blue Point placer dam,
in Township l6 north, range 2 east,
Tucker Flat Mining District, Yuba
County, California, made by James
Rogers. The Commissioner decides
that the claim is not presented as re-
quired by law, and consequently it
must be rejected. The entry will be
examined and disposed of on it's merits
when reached for action in it's regular
order.
Wise men among the Democratic
leaders decline to underestimate the
danger of the Tammany bolt from Rob-
insons nomination for Governor. They
| believe that John Kelly can control
from fifteen to thirty Thousand votes in
| New York City alone. They know
| that the detection will not be confined to
there. Back of Robinson is Tilden. All
over the State there are anti-Tilden
Democrats who will probably avail
themselves of this opportunity to pay
off old scores by quietly voting for
Kelly. The latter is personally honest,
is bold and undaunted. He has the
true qualities Of leadership, and the
Democratic masses adore him. In
/ Brooklyn there is very strong faction
of the Democracy which will go for
Kelly because the s'Boss Mclaughlin"
wing is against him. 1t is estimated
that unless Robinson and Kelly both
| withdraw, the former will fall 80, 900 TO
| $1,000 short of the Democratic vote of
the State. Except for Robinson's Til
den proclivities, he would get large
vote from disaffected Republicans, who
| revolt at the tyranny of the machine,
as well as the independent floating vote;
| but, in view of the fact that Robinson
election would go far toward insuring
Tilden's control of the Senate in the
next Presidential canvass, none bat de-
cided Tilden men feel like coming to
his aid. The best impression now is
that Robinson will stnbbornly refuse to
withdraw. and consequently Cornell
| will carry the State, by reason Of the
Discussions and weakness of tho opposi-
ton, and not by his own or the party's
strength.
United States Marshal (. S. Chase
and G. w. Paul, Warden Of the Idaho
Penitentiary, started last Thursday a
week ago, in pursuit OF the two rob-
bers, Bill Hogan and Bill Reese, who
robbed the Postoffice and Schainwald's
| store, at Middleton, ON the 2Sth of Au-
gust, and robbed Dittal's house, in
Boise Valley, on the Sd instant. They
were joined on their route by Johnny
Case and four more men, and got ON
| the trail OF the robbers on the Bruneau,
| and captured them on the headwaters
of Birch and Castle creeks, in Owyhee
county, after $50 miles trassl, and
lodged them safely in the Penitentiary
at Boise on Saturday afternoon. Mr..
Chase thinks they have recovered all
the stolen property, and they took
three guns, two pistols, a derringer,
and twenty pounds of ammunition from
the robbers, who said they were max
ing for Tusearora, Nevada.
