Suit has been commenced
against the bondsmen Of George
p. McConkey, late Treasurer of
White Pine county, to recover
the amount Of the delinquency
10 his accounts at the time of
his death. 1t is contended by
some that McConkey was de-
faulter to the amount Of about
$1,000 and that he committed
suicide on the last night Of his
term to avoid the disgrace of
the exposure which was certain
to be made the next day, while
others hold to the opinion that,
while posting his books, prepar-
atory to turning them over to
his successor, his office was
entered by robbers, who muir
dered him and took the money
from the open safe. The cir
cumstances of his death and the
condition of his office at the
time his lifeless body was found,
rs testified to at the Coroner's
inquest indicate that the latter
view is correct, and that Nc
COnkey, who in apparent good
spirits left his wife III a ball
room a short time before the
tragedy, was murdered and the
missing money stolen.

includes a number Of C0mstock

THE OCK.UP FOUND1r

Great Barrington's lock up, where I spent the night of the 18th inst, is about 14x2O feet inside. It is constructed of stone walls about Is inches thick and everything is we'll proportioned. The door to the main part is made of iron and the cell doors are of hard wood blanks fastened together by 112 bolts. This IS the most untidv part of the whole arrangement. All the rest is as nicely whitewashed as any hen-roost this being left in it's natural moaal color perhaps for contrast. The graininp is to initiate oak.
 It has four bed rooms, each feet & inches by feet 10 inches, all on the first floor; for the size of the building 1t seems an unusual number.
 The doors are panelled or laticed. some, perhaps, would call it grated Sixteen 3-4 inch bars, IA inches long constitute the lower part of the doors : four G. inch bolts made of 1-2 inch iron form the upper part. The frame work of these doors is made of inch and A half hard wood plank doubled having a little part made of inch and half iron 1-4 inch thick and feet 8 inches long,
 The bedsteads are single of a strong frame with cords of inch and half band iron. The tick showed signs of having been filled with straw, for by close ex. animation with lighted candle, l found small pieces of the material still sticking in the folds of the tick. The bedding consisted of la1ge woolen blanket,-the guest could call it a shee, or bed-quilt, or both. When the bed was arranged for snooze, it was all strong, at least it smelt so to me. ] have slept in worse places than that.
