Especial to the S~EsTINEL.I
SAN Francisco, May 16.-The bonanza
suits were in Court before Judge Sullivan
this morning. Argument was made by
Mr.. Bergin in regard to the cases which
were dismissed, and concerning which the
counsel for Peter Crystal resisted, with
the assertion that the same was the result
Of q corrupt bargain between the two
parties. Mr.. Bergin appeared to show
cause why the cases should not be returned
to the calendar. In the opening he spoke
with considerable feeling relative to the
charges Of fraud and c~ollusion, saying that
during q very active practice for years no
such imputations had ever been made con-
corning his partner and himself, and that
they were unjust and unnecessary. Judge
Sullivan stated that the motion was strict
ly ex parte thus far, and there was, Of
course, no such proof as yet in the case.
An unknown boy was found drowned
near the Jackson street wharf to-day.
A laborer, digging q well at the corner
of Kearny and Broadway, was killed by .
bucket falling on him and breaking his
neck.

THE OsCEoLA HOMICIDE.
Death of Assemblyman George G.
blair, and Particulars OF the At
fray.

Death OF Assembly man George G..
Blair, and Particulars of the At
fray.
The SENTINEL some days ago gave an ac-
count OF the stabbing OF Hon. George G..
Blair at 0sceola, White Pine county. by
one Middleton. 1t now learns that he
died on Friday last. The difficulty origi-
mated from q misunderstanding between
the wives OF the two men. The men met
and began talking over the matter. Mid
dleton was whiting q stick with his
pocket knife. The conversation becoming
angry he called Blair a liar. Thereupon
Blair slapped him In the face and in re-
turn was stabbed In the bowels with the
pocket knife. The wounded man died the
next day. Middleton was brought to Ham
ilton and lodged in jail on a charge Of
murder. The killing seems to have been
n Of those unfortunate things which
frequently occur in the heat Of passion
without q moments thought or p~remedita-
ton. II the SENTINEL has heard the story
correctly, q good man has been killed with
out much provocation, and another equally
good man has laid himself liable to con-
viction for granddaughter.
This is the second member Of the last
Nevada Assembly who has been killed since
the adjournment in March. First, Cap
tain Adams OF Eureka, and now Blair Of
White Pine. Both were hale and hearty
young men, and both had the promise Of
long life when they sat together in Carson
last winter.

Our Reasons.

In fact. we sell all goods at San Francisco
prices, and NO HUMBUG. For 4be benefit Of
those who want to NOV how we sell Goods so
cheap, we will explain Our buyers are al
ways in the market, and are thoroughly con-
versant with the Dry Goods business, being
brought up to it from childhood, and therefore
know the texture Of any piece Of Goods, and
the actual value thereof, and being in the
market all the time know when they see Q
piece of new goods, and no old stock that has
been in the store for years can be palmed OF
on them ~ being of the latest pattern. And
o. we buy our goods for cash we get Q certain
percentage which those who do not cannot OBJ
tain. These are some Of the reasons why we
sell SO cheap. Another reason is we sell for
cash, thereby lessening our expenses. II we
had to keep . set of books we would need
more help. And again, we do not believe in
the theory of charging good customers with
the debts Of others to make good their losses.

How the News of the ConkIing-
Plat Move was Received in Eu-
raEn

How the News of In ConkIng.
Plat Move was Received I'm Eu.
reka.
The SENTINEL on receipt Of the telegram
from Washington last night announcing
the resignation Of Conkling and Platt Of
United States Senators from New York put
out an extra. The news created quite q
breeze among all classes Of citizens, and
particularly among our local Republican
politicians.
A year ago Eureka was a strong Blaine
camp. The Grant-C onkling men hardly
rose to the dignity of scattering. Hence
there has been but little sympathy mani
tested for Conkling by Eureka Republi-
cans in his recent deadlock with the Presi-
dent. Most Of them realize that Blaine is
the power behind the throne, and they
stand in with Blaine, right or wrong.
Nine out of ten Republicans met With
last night expressed qualification at the
firmness of the President, as they called
it, AMI appeared highly pleased that Conk-
ling had been driven from his seat in the
Senate. The action OF Plat hardly ex-
cited comment. He was almost entirely
overlooked in measuring the motives Of
Conkling.
Assessor Wallace was delighted with the
firm stand of Garfield, and hoped that
Conkling might never get back into the
Senate. He had built himself up with
the Federal patronage, and now that he
could not swing it to his liking in every
instance he had sought to ruin the Repub-
lican party. The President was RESPONSE
BILE to the country and the people for his
appointees, and he had exhibited the right
kind Of metal in sitting down o. .Qonk-
ling for attempting to dictate to him.
Little Kickock swore that If he was in
New York he would vote the Democratic
ticket as long as he lived rather than vote
for any Republican who would vote to
send C~onkling back to the Senate. Conk-
ling had got entirely too big for his
breeches and deserved being squelched.
U. s. Land Register Hinckley was for
the President first, last and all the time.
His commission bears the signature Of
James A.
Colonel Canavan considers Conkling a
bigger nan than Grant and thought he
would come out on top.
President John Baker thought that two
men who had no more sense than to throw
up their fat billets in the Senate were fit
subjects for the Damphool Infirmary. He
would Immediately call a special meeting
and make them life members, comforting
all the degrees the first ~clatter.
