the money being laid out for him, for
some uncomfortable reason. and which will
probably always remain as mystery to
astonish the natives, Pollard said he only
wished $50, with which he wished to pay q
bill at Huntington. Hopkins & Co., and
would then return and take the rest OF the
amount in clothing for his men. lie there
upon returned to the merchant all except
$50, which he took and went out. ostensibly
to paw the above mentioned hardware bill,
but did not return for the clothing and has
not since been seen. The check was sent to
the Pacific Bank, which returned reply that
Shaw had no account at the bank and was
entirely unknown. It has also been ascertained
that no such person as Shaw or Pollard is
known at Folsom.
Upon description being given of the
swiniler at D. 0. Mills & Co. Is bank, he was
identified as the man who perpetrated SINH
lar confidence game upon merchant at
Winnemucca sometime ago, and he will
probably strike some other town in due time.
Pollard claimed to be civil engineer. but
his K-street friend thinks he engineered him
self $50 worth into him very uncivilly, and
he is puzzled to death to know why he didn't
take the rest of the money while he was
about it.
THE FREE. AND EAsY.-The cases arising
from the K.street riot on Saturday evening
were again postponed yesterday until to-day.
There is an earnest effort being made by the
parties arrested and others, to hush the mat
ter up, and some kind of potent action has
been taken which has induced the proprietor
of the den and others who were present, not
to swear to complaints against the persons
in custody, and thereby endeayoring to
effect their release. This, however, was met
yesterday by Judge Henry refusing to dis
charge the parties arrested, and in addition
to this officer Valentine swore to q complaint
charging James Kern, the proprietor of the
Free and Easy Saloon, or dive, with keeping
arrested by officer Arlington. Subpenas
have been served upon most of the
residents and business people in the
vicinity, and there will probably not
only be no diff Guilty to prove that the estab-
lishment is run in a disorderly manner, in
the worst sense of the term, but that it is so
low and degrading, as well as hotbed for
riots and other crimes and debaucheries of
all grades, that If should be promptly shut
up as the worst and most damaging class OF
public nuisance.
FIESpIsH ASSAULT While the twelve
year old daughter of Mr.. Silva, who formerly
kept the ferry down the Riverside, but is

the little girl starting to run away, he caught
her, and drawing her into bushes at the road

first appealed to him TO desist, and then ac-
companied her appeals with cffers Of her
rings and other pieces of jswelry which she
had on, but all to no purpose. He made his
