There Is great excitement here over the
announcement that an old German, Pc.
ter Hoffman. who died in Harrison
county yesterday. had made some start.
ling disclosures regarding two brutal and
mysterious murders that had been per.
petrsted near his home. It appears that
Hoffman was taken sick o short time
ago, and as be grew worse he svinced
great mental suffering. On being IN,
formed that he was about to die hs cried
out for q priest, and in dsspairipg tones
confessed that he had murdered three
men. One OF the crimes be had COM
mitted in Germany, and 10 escape pun
ishment for which he had fed to this
country. The other two murders he
said be committed in Harrison. and
since be has been taken sick he has
been overcome with remorss. His
mental torture became 80 unbear-
able that be was compelled TO con.
Tess his guilt. His statements about
the murders are fully c~orroborated BY
evidence in the hands Of the authorities.

A reporter Of the New York Tribune
recently interviewed Governor Kinksad'
and obtained his views concerning the
condition and prospects Of Nevada
These views we're publishsd In the Trio
N Of the 9th instant. The Governor
appears to be very sansuino with regard
to the future Of Nevada, though perhaps
not unreasonably 80. His opinion with
regard to the injurious effects Of the
high rates Of railroad transportation
upon the State 10 in accord with the
opinion Of every person in Nevada who
10 not interested In railroad property.
In reply to the Tribune reporters
queries the Governor said:
The present trouble with Nevada 10
that all its interests have been centsred
on one mine, the Comstoek. A few
men have stepped In and made millions
ont Of Il, and thousands Of others have
made nothing. But the Cemstock isn't
all OF Nevada, BY . good deal.
Nevada dossn't depend onits gold and
silver, abundant a. they are. II is rich
In coal. iron, salt. nitrate OF soda, boraI
and sulphur. A country that has got oil
these things whiting for the hand Of man
to develop them need have. no fear for
the future.
Transportation 10 20 high now that
immigrants are frightened away, and
settle in the adjoining States and Terri.
tories. Then. too. w need railroads to
bring our productions to market, and to
tempt our rich men 10 live in the State.
I am glad to say that this need 10 being
met. The Carson and Colorado Railroad
Is now being completed and will open up
several rich mining districts that could
not otherwise be made to pay. When
the State 10 covered with . network Of
railroads, then We may expect to see
populous towns and cities spring mp.
Nevada 10 destined to be n OF the
richest mining countries In the world.
In needs money to develop II, and men
Who are willing to work. No drones
need apply. II W get the right kind
Of men and the money. our future will
DO secure. I may say . word about our
financial condition. It has been repro.
ssnted that We are bankrupt; that Is q
strange aud absurd Misrepresentation.
Nevada does not owe o dollar In the
world, except to her " school children.
Her resources are ample for her support.
and she can meet all her liabilities when
they mature. Our fate does not hang on
the Comstock mines. a. many people
seem to suppose.
