JAMES KEMP.
r. E,d. ri. Life with . Pistol
Bullet.


Word wa brought to Coroner Conn
this morning that q man had been found
dead in the stable Of the Nevada mill. in
six.mils canyon. On aoins to the place
he found the body Of james Kemp. lying
,tiff and cold. az il life bad been extinct
some time, in ons OF the stalls IN me
stable, with q bullst.hols through mis-
head.
The body was discovered this morning
by Mr.. Tannshil, watsbmsn ct the MILL
Who went to the stable about 5 o'clock.
Seeing the PROSTATE form Of . man. no
supposed some tramp had sought ioog'
ines for the night. and tried to AWAKEN
him. Not succeeding. he examined the
body more closely, and discovered
blood about the head, and went ct once
to town aud notified the Coroner. Since
the finding Of the body hs remembers
hearing q pistol shot yesterday afternoon
about 8 O'Clock, but had no idea Of
where 1t was. It was probably the shot
that ended Kemp's life. a. the Coroner
thinks he must have been dead ten or
twelve hours when found.
The friends Of the deceased say that
hs has been dependent and gloomy for
some time, owing to the fact that he Was
out OF employment and owed oonsidera.
BILE money. That theory. however. Will
hardly account for his suicide. a. no
always had money with him. and had
friends who were able and willing to -.
sist hiu. Besides, he was Deputy shsr.
ia. appointed for the special duty Of
guarding prisoners at work on the streets.
He has had nothing to attend TO In that
line In the past six weeks. however, ~
there were not sufficient prisoners In the
County jail to make up . gang to work.
Kemp was . man about forty years OF
age, we'll known and we'll liked. The
Coroner will hold an inquest In Virginia
this evening at 8 o'clock.

days In the County Jail. The boy 10
young. not over fifteen years, and II
looks hard to give him such o sentence.
and would be unjust were be- not known
to DO Q bad boy. This 10 not the arst
time be has been arrested, and he seems
TO depend on bis youth to screen him
from the consequences Of his dsviltry.
Perhaps his conviction and sentence
will have q good effect on his mates. II
not on himself. He did not get more
than be deserved.

The Q Market.

The majority Of the San Francisco
papers have little to say Of the business
Of Pine street. They appear to think
the boom 10 over. and simply remark
that +" the market appears to have been
hi. with q stuffed club" The Post dii-
fers from the others somewhat. and has
considerable to say. It thinks the sur
rouudings are favorable for an active
market. and goes on to say:
"Tbers has seldom been Q growth OF
speculation at q boards that was not
accompanied by bsckssts and temporary
rsyerses, such has w have had the past
few days, during which strong operators
prey upon the weak with the view OF
moro closely concentrating desirable
lines Of stock. We are OF the opinion
that the "d.cks are being cleared for
action in the present instance. and do
not hesitate to predict, ~ We have al
ready done, while warning our readers
Of the dangers liable to occur during the
past day or 90, that better times are 10
store for all who have the patience to
hold their stocks for general results.
The REFRESHING efforts which have been
brought to bear in the market siucs the
revival Of faith IN the Comstock began
few weeks ago. have bad In the main
q very healthy influence. They have
curbed that wild and reckless impulse 90
common In this community. which
would cause an unwarrautsd and pre-
mature uphsavsl In prices that would
bring about . serious disaster. before
the work In the minsa had reached .
s.%lf.sustsining point. knowing what
this work will lead 10. We fully expect
that the decline IN the market viii place
matters on Q NOR healthy basis, and
will give place 10 . further growth In
business and prices. that will bs 70.
nsnerativs to all who are reasonably
sanguins."

the BOY THIEVES.
rhr.. HELD - Appear Dsfsrs ne
0rand Jury and Oas DfsehsrgeA.

In the examination Of Charles Dern.
inR, Joseph Mcdonald and the two
Perry boys. which took place yesterday
afternoon before Justice birmingham,
on . charge OF grand larceny based upon
the robbery Of wsrdsll's house In Lyon
county, 1t was developed that three OF
them visited the house three successive
days. taking away each time what they
could carry. Mcdonald. the fourth boy
and youngest OF the lot. was With them
but one day. and what be had In his pos.
session would amount only to patty
larceny. 30 that, on motion Of Assistant
District Attorney Hutfsksr. he was
discharged from custody. The boy 10
only about fourteen years OF ago and
comes Of . very respectable family. 1t 10
said. However that may DO, he
was certainly In bad company when he
accompanied the Others and robbed War.
dell's house. nor did be yesterday sppear
to feel the disgraosful position he ooou-
pisd, but seemed % cool and collected
a II hs were the most innocent person
In the world. and altogether put on .
bold fsos. Then. too, when arrested be
confessed to robbing the house. and
also told the officers hs had given his
portion Of the plundsr to . boy named
John Coyls. living near the Q. q o.
side track to keep for him. When the
Officers proeursd . search warrant for
John Coyls. no such person could be
found and no one bearing such . name
had ever been known 10 live In that
part. Of Virginia city. Finally, after
living about Il Q number OF times, be
told Constable Sexton that the property
was hidden In . trunk In his room at
home. where he had placed 1t unknown
to his parents, and there Was found
some Of the missing jswslry. He dc.
serves punishment for his actions, and
his telling 90 many fslsehoods proves
him to be anything bat Q good boy.
However, yesterdays indictment would
not hold him, aud 1t was necessary to
ies MN 90.
OF the other boys (neithsf Of them 10
twsnty.ons years Of sge) they will be
brought before the Gra6d Jury. and after
trial will doubtless serve Q term In the
State Prison; for the evidence given 10
at the examination leaves no doubt OF
their guilt. The prisoners, though
young. appeared Indifferent, seeming TO
care but little that they were charged
with Q serious offsnss against the law,
and their utter indifference to the situa.
ton caused less pity to DO shown BY the
spectators than Il usual whore youths
are on trial.
Constable Sexton and Officer Shsshan
deserve credit for the able manner In
which they have ferrstsd out these
thieves. It VA . case that required
considerable work and they have done
their duty faithfully.

HE ANXIoCSLY INQUIRIES ABOUT THE STRANGERS
IN TowN-HE DEMANDS THAT HIS GUARD BE
DOUBLED
This morning the assassin made the remark
that he was feeling better than for some time
before. but evidently his talk was braggadocio.
He expressed a great desire to have some exer-
else. and asked for some paper to write to a
friend. 1t is apparent that he is now suffering
as much as it is possible for man to suffer in
mind. for he is fearful of the least sound On
General Croker making the usual inquiries
of the prisoner this afternoon. he answered that
he had slept we'll and continuing said: II de-
mand and expect ample protection by the au-
thorities. Iwant the guards doubled and the
strctest vigilance kept. This | want till the
public mind has settled" He asked where
is President Gartieds body now" and
General Croker answered that it was
IN the city. He then wished TO know
if there was any crowds of people i'm the city.
ana was told that there were vast numbers of
people here and more coming Guiteau hung
down ms head for moment and remark ed
Wen, it couldn't be expected otherwise" After
another pause he said. THE greatest cause for
alarm is from the strangers" and he again
asked General c. to use the greatest precau-
tons for his protection. When asked if he had
selected lawyer yet, he replied that he had not
but he would want some one to assist him i'm the
management OF his Case and. though he was a
lawyer himself, he would, when the time came
select a first-class man.
he was given an opportunity to exercise to-
Gay. but his heart did not enter into it, and he
spent but little time i'm the corridor This after
noon he spent i'm writing to friend. This morn
ing, when one of the guards was passing through
ne noticed that Guiteaus eyes were on his every
movement, showing that he is getting even sus-
pclous vi the regular officers of the jail.

eral. has been designated to take charge Of the
carriages to be used in to-morrOw's procession.
Those entitled to carriages should apply to that
officer at the War department.
President Garfield's face has very much
changed since yesterday, the discoloration of the
skin having extended, rendering it advisable to
powder the face in order 10 soften somewhat its
darkened hue. 1t was stated last night that the
coffin would be closed at 10 o'clock this morn
ing on account of the change that had taken
place in the dead mans face but the body is still
lying in state and is being viewed bymultitudes.
There will probably be no change made in the
original plan to allow the remains to be seen
until tomorrow.
