AN OUTSIDE EXPLANATION,
Why the G. r. Have Concluded
to Reduce Freight Tariffs.

III INtuucC kAhS5-
Regarding the reduction o
freights on the G. p. & U. P
railroads the Salt Lake T'i6l01
has the following:
The Nevada press are JUS
now debating the new tariff o.
freights on goods from the East
recently agreed upon by the
railroad managers. One set
asserts that no substantial gain
has been made, while the others
declare that a great victory has
been secured, and give Jay
Gould credit for bringing Stan
ford to terms. We think it is
clear that some substantial con-
cessions have been made, but it
has been through no such causes
as are given. The truth is that
Nevada is to the c. p. people
no longer chief source of profit,
as it was for SO many years.
Their charges were so merciless,
and they Disseminated against
the people of Nevada SO shame
lessly, that at length men would
no longer invest in Nevada
mines, though it is true that in
many of the abandoned districts
of that State there are better
prospects than can be shown in
some districts in other regions
which are now being lauded to
the clouds. We are willing to
believe that a correct view of
the real situation has begun to
dawn upon the visions of the
owners Of the Central Pacific,
and that in self defense they
have been forced to modify
some of their rates. 1t is the
hardest thing possible for rail-
road men to see any reason for
reducing charges where they
have a monopoly.
These may be the reasons for
the reduction, but we are still
inclined to think that the c. P.
feared a competing line. The
managers of the road have such
colossal fortunes that money
matters do not always weigh with
them. The delights which &C
crue to some men from being able
to crush and hold a community
in subsection, weigh more in
their minds than mere accumu-
lation Of money. Leland Stan
ford is naturally a tyrant, and
loves dearly to exercise his
tyranny. If he could make
every town in Nevada a mere
collection of empty buildings he
would doubtless enjoy the con-
temptation of the ruins. He
has passed the point where
money can give HIM additional
enjoyment. He now lives simply
to Cypress and ruin all who
oppose him. AS far as the
alleged reduction is concerned,
some merchants hold that the
back freight is still to be charged
and others express contrary
opinion.
The Enterprise of yesterday
makes a mastery dissection Of
Cassidy's speech and by the ir-
REPUTABLE logic of facts and
figures shows that Mr.. Cassidy
is manufacturing history for
fools to swallow. The article
was complete crusher. Some
thing like the fall of a pile
driver on ar egg. How Cas-
sidy managed to deliver the
same speech in Virginia City

MACK AY AND THE COWBOYS
The True History OF the Attempt
to Kidnap a Millionaire.

, AS all sorts of unreasonable.
stories have been flung abou
relative to the attempt on the
part of the Colorado cowboys t.
kidnap John Mackfy, the AP-
PEAL has taken the pains tc
secure special report of the
affair from the scene of action.
At half past four in the Morn
ing, Col. Gillette, who was on
the train with Mackay, woke
! the millionaire up and said:
"JOhn, where in thunder is that
bottle OF cocktails"" Mr.. Mack
ay directed him to Bill Hobart's
bunk as the most likely place to
find the treasure. Col. Gillette
searched the bunk and found
the bottle, but it is almost need
less to add, empty. Col. Gil
lett's outcry raised the sleepers,
and all hands got up to look at
the comet. 1t was nearly gray
dawn when the party slept
again, and Col. Gillette noticed
some moving figures on the ex-
IRENE edge Of the horizon, and
crawling to Mackay's bunk &C
quainted him with the suspi-
cious circumstance. Mr.. Mack
ay was in a terrible dilemma,
but Col. Gillette's presence Of
mind treasured him. The Col
onel then proposed plan which
was well worthy the ColonePs
military mind. Said he, in
hoarse whisper: "John, the
bandits will jump you at once.
Give me your available cash
and l will keep it on my person
as long as there is life" Mr..
Mackay was much pleased with
his friends self sacrificing pro-
pOsal and in the first gush of his
enthusiasm agreed to buy up the
South Lady Bryan and make
Gillette Superintendent on John
Kelly's old salary. At this point
Mr.. Hobart came up and in
sisted on sharing half the dam
ger as proposed by Mr.. Gillette
Gillette objected, saying that he
was well qualified to stand in
the breach. Here Mr.. Mackay
determined to hold on
to the money and share all the
danger, remarking that he could !
not think of placing men with
families in such great peril. An
offer on the part of the sleeping
car porter to sacrifice himself
was also refused. The train |
was speeding on at the rate of |
40 miles an hour, when Mr..
Mackay remarked in an under
tone that if he could escape the !
bandits on the inside Of the ear
he would take his chances with
those on the outside. This was
communicated to Hobart and |
Gillette, who Immediately re-
tired to the rear of the car to !
watch the grand spectacle of
Colorado sunrise. On reaching
the nearest telegraph station
they sent the dispatch which
first went over the wires and
had it charged to Mackay.

Toronto, August 1.-THE Globe to-
day publishes the reports received by
telegraph from all parts of the country
showing the damage done to crops by
the recent storms, and from which 1t
appears that Is or 20 of the best grain
growing counties, half of wheat and
half of barley, have been exposed to
such weather as will probably reduce
the selling value % Or 80 per cent. In
the county of Kent the damage alone
during the last few days is enough to
convert the harvest, which promised to
be n of the best on record, into one
that will furnish very poor recompense
for a years toll.

The Murderous Apaches.

San Francisco, August 1.-THE
Stars Mexican advices Of the Sth from
Hermovillo, Sonora, says Parties just
arrived from Ures report the Apache
depredations in that section as most
fearful. Over two hundred warriors
are in the Mazatan mountains, near
Ures, and make daily raids in the
valleys in small bodies, burning crops
and houses and numbering the inhabi-
ants. During the past twelve days
forty-hve persons have been murdered
within a radius of twenty-five miles of
Ures. Among the victims IS Lazaro
Velencia, a wealthy citizen of Ures,
and two prominent government officials
are among the murdered.
Last week they attacked the ranch
Viejoe. The fight last four hours and
four of the ranchers were killed and
the remainder wounded. Nine Apaches
were left on the battle field. The
approach of a body of Mexican troops
caused them to retreat.
The Apaches are from the San Carlos
agencies and are all armed with Win
chester rifles and use cartridges stamp
ed u. 5. The Mexicans are poorly
armed with muzzle leaders. The
country is terrorized and business
paralyzed. The settlers are fleeing
from their ranches to Ures. All the
available Mexican troops are being con-
centrated TO operate against them.
Tucson, A. T., August 11.-Prof-
II. B. Clifford, of Washington, has just
returned from Ures, Sonora, where he
has been examining mines for an
eastern syndicate. On the afternoon
of the 9TH, he, with James Walton, of
Ell Paso, were attacked by a band of
Apaches thirty miles southeast OF Ures.
Walton was seriously wounded in the
left shoulder and Clifford received a
wound in the left shoulder. Clifford
saved Walton from falling into the
hands of the Apaches by holding him
On his horse until out of their reach.
He states that that section of Sonora is
swarming with Apaches.

Artesian Wells.

The various experiments in sinking
artesian wells in various portions of
the territory are watched with more
than ordinary interest in the hopes that
they may prove a source of abundant
supply of what in many sections is a
scantily supplied necessity. Speaking
of work now doing near Rock Creek,
the Sweetwater Gazette chronicles:
"Mr. Wilkinson, of Pennsylvania,
has his machinery at work here sinking
an artesian well. 1t is drilled to the
depth of over 1000 feet, and in that
distance the workmen have cut through
several veins Of good coal and tapped
water twice, but the water is not good.
1t can be used neither for machinery
nor household purposes. Before they
will give it up they will penetrate to the
depth of $500 feet. At first they used
an s inch drill, now they have reduced
the sizs and are working with a 81 inch
drill. The want of good water has al
ways been a great drawback to this
camp, and 1t is not to be hoped that
when they get through the coal strata
that they will And good water. Pre-
parations are now being made towards
sinking an artesian well ut Thayer on
the U. p. railway"
