A GIFT OF AsILyER.

Secretary Sherman, who seems de-
termined to do all in his power as Sec
rotary of the Treasury to demonetize
silver, has sent to the House of Repre-
sentatives letter from the Assistant
Treasurer at New York, who states
That there are SIS, COO 900 in silver m
the Sub-Treasury, and that he can not
receive more than $40, 900, 900 more.
The Sub-Treasurer, probably at the in
stigation of Sherman, complains that
as there is no disposition on the part OF
Congress to stop the further coinage OF
silver, there will be no room for it. II
it is to 60 on at the rate of $1,000, 600
per month, the question of show to

The question OF railroad taxation is
now being discussed by many papers in
tae western part of the State. 1t is al.
ways agitated before, but never after
elections. I The men who have most to
say about it as candidates, never al
lnde to it as officers. Like the reduc-
ton of fares and freights, it is used for
campaign purposes before elections and
for throwing money in the way of lob
byists and members who are susceptible
to coin influences when the Legislature
is in session. The Reno Journal thinks
that the California Board OF Equaliza-
ton, which fixed the valuation of the
Central Pacific Railroad at $50, 264 per
nile in every county in that State
through which it runs, did about right,
and would like to see the company pay
the same rate in Nevada. That paper
says, ZONE of the first duties of the
next Legislature should be to pass a
bill creating State Board of Elualiza-
ton, to the end that the railroads
should pay their just PROPORTION of tax
alton, and that the rate should be uni
form"
There is no greater necessity for
State Board of Equalization now than
there has been for years past, yet the
Legislature never considers it duty to
pass bill creating such board. A
bill was introduced IN 1879 for that
purpose, by Senator Cresswell, of Nye
county. 1t provided simple and IN
expensive method of equahzng taxation
en- railroads and other property sita-
ated in two or more counties in the
State. It was indefinitely postponed
in the Assembly ON motion OF Fisk,
of Eureka, who, strange to say, voted
against his own motion, and appears on
the record as having been opposed to
the indefinite postponement OF the bill.
The vote was decisive, % members ia
yoring the motion and l6-including
F;sk--against it. What guarantee can
the Journal give that bill for simi-
lar purpose will not meet the same fate
IN the next Legislature, particularly if
the members are elected on coin plat
form to send Mr.. Sharon, of California,
back to the Senate from Nevada Two
of the three Assemblymen from this
county; namely, David Melarkey and
Angus Morrison, voted against the in
definite postponement of the bill, and
probably incurred the dispfeasure of
the majority of their party in the Leg
islature for doing so, but they proved
to the satisfaction of their constituents
Tat they were not swerved from what
they believed to be their duty ''by coin
or unworthy promises" as Mr.. Tntle

SANTA CEUz, Cal, May 24th.-This
city was yesterday thrown into the
greatest excitement by an accident that
happened to an excursion train a. few
miles from town, resulting in the kill
ing and injuring of large number of
persons. The Independent Rifles were
holding picnic at the Big Trees, and
al excarsion train was run to the place
on the South Pacific Coast Narrow
Gauge Railroad, the occupants number
ing abont $50. The train left town at
about 81 o'clock P. NJ, under charge of
conductor w. d. Bones, being COM
posed of three open cars arranged with
high ratings on the sides and ends. It
had gone as far as tunnel No. Z, and all
of the exeursionists. were in, high
spirits, when Suddenly, soon after
emerging from the tunnel, and being on
the down grade, the first of the fiat cars
jumped the track, from some cause,
just as the first curve was reached,
going off to the left, the second taking
to the right and the third remaining on
the track The first and second cars
went over into the bitches alongside
and against embellishments. The scene
was one of the
Widest CONFUSION AND DIsMAY,
The occupants OF cars being thrown
into confused mass, the cars them
selves Ploughsng in among those near
est the track, killing and manning
them by the wholesale. AS soon as
the persons on the last car could COM
mand their energies they set at work
to extricate the deed and wounded. A
messenger was dispatched to town for
medical assistancs, and soon several
doctors and Others FASTENED to the
scene The situation was heart-rend-
ing in the extreme. Men. women and
children lay mangled and bleeding, fill
ing the air with their cries of agony,
while others lay dumb in death.
The bodies Of those who had been
/ killed outright were gathered together
and with the wounded were brought TO
town. Every hotel in the place was
utilized to care for private families,
Among those who have done the most

In the confusion which prevails even
up to this morning, it is difficult to get
a correct list of the killed and wounded ,
Riumors are flying about to the effect
that this or that person had just died,
and the probability is that the number
of fatal cases will reach at least twenty.
Following is the list as nearly as can be

THE OUTLOOK IN KENTUCKY AND NEW YORK..
Special Dtspateh to The Chicapo Tribune.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, April 17.-Letters Just re-
ceived by the Executive Committee Of the
Anti Third-Term party gives information Of
interest as to the political outlook In Ken
tncky and New York. One of the letters is
from gentleman OF Kentucky who is dele

delegate for Blaine, two other delegates
represent Sherman, and the writer any one
to beat Grant The minority delegates, the
letter states,

it it is advisable to do so. They made gal
liant fight, and, while they lost they assert
that the Republicans of Kentucky are not
for Grant. Aletter from j. c. F., Beyland,
editor Of the New York publhaner, the
only German Republican paper published In
New York City, after stating that the paper
is opposed to the third term and to the con-
Hnued domination Of the th1rd-term machine
in that State, continues: =" hope that the
third term will not be saddled on the party.

Convention. the delegates may not. go to Gin

the understanding that they are to cast their
ballots for him.
Rent and torn as the Democracy In New
York is, Tilden could yet

GRANT,
but he could not against any other candidate.
[ am constrained to think that Tilden bases
mis- hopes upon Grants nomination. He
knows fullwell, unless he is blind to his own
folly, that his changes would be worthless
with any other candidate opposing him;
As intimated, the only thing that will save
Tilden In his own Convention will be the ad-
mission Of the delegates from Irving Hai1,
New York City. John Kelly announces that
the delegates from Tanmany Hall will ap.
ply for admission to Tilden's Convention. II
he puts this plan into execution, the contest
between the two Balls will be fierce a

those from the Democratic Un1on-wiU

Each succeeding day produces new phases

something for speculation. That Syracuse

THE DEFICIENCIES.
MAKING HASTE SLOWLY,

Special nspatch to The Chtedgo Tribune
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 17,-Four weeks
ago, after an unjustihable delay OF nearly
four months, the House Of Representatives
passed the "I1nmediate" Deficiency bill.
The bill contains the item for the fees of
United States Marshals, now nearly ten
months In arrears, an item OF about Sc, ,000, 600
to pay pensioners Of the late War, and an
item OF 5000 to fit out ship for the relief
OF the crews Of two whaling vessels which,
are Imprisoned in the ice in the Arctic
ocean. AS the title Of the bill i'm
parts, there was At immediate need
OF the appropriation inI each case.
Inc Dill was sent to the Senate, and two
weeks ago it was passed by that body and
returned to the House, with certain amend

Committee sullenly refuse to bring it before
the House. It appears that Chairman Atkins

ton bill is reported and passed. This
means that the Marshals, who have already
been kept out Of their money for nearly a
year, must continue fbr an indeffntt period to
pay the expenses of their offices ont, of their
own pockets; that the needy loyal pension
ers must still continue to wait; and that the
eighty men who comprise the crews Of the
whnling-yessels that are hemmed in by ice in
the Arctic Sea-and it may be perishing--
must wait and watch in vain for relief. It is
we'll understood that. unless the relfef-yessel
can leave San Francisco within thlrty days,
she might as well not go at all.
