all bosh, for all who were en-
gagged in that enterprise lost
money in the venture.

of the appropriation bills. The
deferment Of this class Of legis-

hypothecate their matured emol-
uments to mOney-sharks.

ChirogrEphic Mind Reading.

The autographs character
reading sharp of the Reno
Gazette thusly presents the pc
culiarities Of Senator Dennis
as deIineated by his chirography:
John II. Dennis Is another
erratic genius. There is self
reli"nt, bold, determined express
sion with somewhat Of original
ity. Plans are thought feasible,
formed, half carried out and
then Ibid aside for new ones,
which in a short time follow
their predecessors. Hence L
| would assume that Mr.. Dennis
! is hard and conscientious
worker, but does no. accom- lish
much unless his efforts are ably
seconded and kept alive by
others.
If the photographic surmiser
had been struggling for the
champion belt as the boss
blunderer Of the United States
he couldn't have hit wider the
mark. It the Senator from
Tuscarora has any peculiarity
more marked than another, it is
the persistency and almostibulI-
dog tenacity with which he
sticks to and follows up any
measure which he originates or
favors. He is some times wrong,
bat right or wrong, he never
lets up until his proposition is
killed too dead to be resur-
rected by Legislative or parlia-
mentary trump. His bills have
been tabled and beaten time
and again, but he always man.
ages to bring them to the sur
face and seldom misses steering
them safely through the Senate.
Some of the other pen pictures
of the Gazette's mind reader are
still more rediculously off. The |
fact is the idea of estimating |
character by handwriting is an
anyhow, and we adj
wise our Reno friend to drop |
the photographic racket, and
paint his future pictures from
the size Of his sitter's shirt COL
lar or the number Of his boots.

Change Ina the Gas Trust I'm Philndel-
phia Causes aStampede-sOme Arrests.


PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 24.-The finance COM
mittee of the gas trust had a conference this
afternoon with District Attorney Graham
relative to the alleged frauds in the office.
1t is said that several clerks are missing from
their desks to-day.
1t is stated tonight that warrants are out
for the arrest of eX-Auditor Robert b. Nor
rell, of the Seventh street office; eX-clcrk
Taylor, who was Morrell's assistant; James
S, Smith, ex-auditor in the Spring Garden
street office; Henry Warren, formerly in the
Spring Garden office; Mai. Goodman, present
receiver in the West Philadelphia Office and
Martin w. Culp, gas-bill clerk in the Seventh
street office. Ex-Auditor Morell is the only
one of the clerks known to have fed.
The alleged frauds in the gas Office are caus-
ing considerable futter among the politicians.
The discoveries made in the books of the
trust show peculations amounting to 100000.
The matter was first brought to the attention
of the trust sixteen months ago, and Charles
ID. Hooper, who was recently sent to prison
for theft, has made n confession, upon which
the present inquiry is being conducted. The
accounts are in terrible condition, many
books and papers being missing or mutt
lated The frauds were carried on by col
lusion between the receiving clerks and
the auditors. the latter receiving a certain
proportion of the stealings One of the au-
ditOrs, Morrell, has been traced to Washing
ton, where his friends talk of placing him in
an insane asylum, alleging that his mind is
unbalanced. the frauds extended through
the main and branch offices. The trustees re-
fuse to make any disclosures until the arrests
are made

SAN Francisco, jan pa dispatch from
Winnemucca, New, says; The Indians in the
northern part of this (Humboldt) county and
near the line in Oregon are reported to be in
n starving condition. Tho intensely cold
weather has prevented them from hunting
and they make little, If any, provision foi
winter. The settlers are contributing to Their
support, but il Is feared that they will COM
mence killing stock to keep from starving
There are over 500 Piutes in this county. The
government gives them no annuities, and
they are wholly dependent upon their own
resources. Trouble is likely to ensue unless
the government does something to help feed
them during the winter.
