Dissatisfied Stockholders Meeting;
Smiths Letter to a Fellow Com
Wet.

BY Telegraph to the Sentinel
SAN Francisco, August ia meeting
of the dissatisfied stockholders Of the
Phil Sheridan Mining Company was held
last evening, H. 8. Stone in the chair. The
committee previously appointed read a
partial report, stating that they had found
upon investigation that J. W. Pierson was
responsible for the alleged frauds against
the stockholders, and that s. B. Barrett,
who is Persons brother-in-law, and w.
Barrett's partner, had received the $50, 900
of which the stockholders were alleged to
have been defrauded. 1t was decided at
once to commence legal proceedings to re-
strain the sale Of 100, 900 shares Of the
capital stock announced for tomorrow af-
ternoon. The committee will make a COM
plete report on Saturday evening.
Marion Smith, a convict at San Quentin,
has written a letter to a fellow-prisoner,
which found its way into the hands Of
Warden Ames, and by him has been for
warded to Governor Perkins. 1t states
that the writer and q certain woman wit
messed the murder Of 7. Wallace More, at
Lespe, Ventura county; that Sprague, now
under sentence of death for participation
in that crime, was not present, but that
cook and Curlee performed the deed. Both
Of these parties, it will be remembered,
were arrested; Cook was discharged by the
Committing Magistrate, and Curlee went
to the State Prison, but was released on a
new trial.

NO SOLDIER NEED APPLY.

The Republicans of Nevada are not
partial to the men who aided in crushing
out the rebellion. In fact, to have fought
for the Union is about the poorest recon-
mendation a man can present to the Re-
publicans Of this State. Two years ago
General Conner was slaughtered in Con-
vention, and the battle-scarred veteran,
H. r. Mighels, before the people. Now
General Sabin, who participated in
every important battle of the war is de-
feated by a stay-at-home patriot from
the ''solid South" The only hope for
the ''boys in blue is to unite with the
Democratic party.

SPLIT AGAIN.

Beatty and Hawley have split on an
other decision. Leonard fell in with
Hawley this time, and SO the latter got
away with the baggage. Leaving a case
to the Nevada Supreme Court, as it is
now constructed, is a little like drawing
straws for the result. Beatty and Haw-
ley never agree if they can help it. Both
play for Leonard, and the man that
catches him wins. This court needs re-
modelling, and if the people act wisely
they will reconstruct it at the coming
election. The election of Judge Belknap
will work a badly needed and wholesome
reform in our Supreme Bench. That he
will be elected by handsome majority
does not admit Of doubt.
