Death of Leroy Southmayd.

Our Virginia City correspondent
conveys the sad intelligence of the
death by accident of Leroy South
mayd. But few old-timers have been
better known or more generally re-
spected throughout the Territory
than the deceased. He has been for
many years a miner of Alder Gulch,
where his property yielded him large
wealth. His diggings, located above
Virginia City, near Summit, are deep
and rugged, and worked by pipe and
ground slu:ce. The gold washed from
this ground amounts to many thous-
ands of dollars, a considerable part
of which Mr.. Seuthmayd had invest
ed in cattle and other paying prep
erty. All who have known him will
remember him as an exemplary citi-
zen, and his bereaved family will
mourn the loss of a kind husband
and an indulgent father.

US by. Three deaths have occurred,
%desolating the firesides of two faml,
lies. Only one case remains, q child

Some Young hoedlums in the south
western portion of the city have been

glass in vacant tenements. The Pc
lice have spotted several of them,
and their parents will be afforded an
opportunity to pay for The glass in
addition to such fines as may be as
sessed by the Police Magistrate.

New YORK, Jan. 16.-The market re-
deemed itself to-day. Delaware & Lacka-
wanna came to the front, recovering its
loss of yesterday, and sold up to 1874.
Jersey Central followed with an advance
from 7118 to 1917, and Illinois Central
from 1851 to 1861. Wabash common,
during the afternoon, was in demand, sell
ing at 1914, and Denver at 462l. Mr..
Gould was credited with being buyer of
Texas Pacific, and board room gossip pre-
diets higher figures for it, Missouri, KaI-
sas 81 Texas is also mentioned as likely to
do better under the same manipulation.
There has been greater confidence shown
to-day, and stocks were purchased
with more freedom. The bulls seemed to
control the situation, and if they can sue
coed in making even slight Improvements
daily they will not have long to wait for a
following. Hannibal d st. Joe preferred
is quoted ex-dividend of 8 per cent
Rumor has it that New Jersey Central may
make close alliance with Lehigh Valley.
Stocks were quite active in the final deal
ings. Western Union, in which there has
been some strong buying of late, was as
sisted by reports that the leading spirits
of Western Union and Mutual Union had
arrived at a better understanding, and
there was not likely to be any more tele-
graph suits. The grangers have been
higher. These stocks we're strengthened
by kilograms from Chicago that on and
after Feb. 1 the Northwestern and
Milwaukee & st. Paul roads will pool all
business except lumber originating at
Algona, Ia, and destined to points south
and east of Chicago, and also all return
ing business, the gross earnings to be
equally divided. This was accepted as
meaning perfect harmony between the
companies

The Nickel Plate.
conpaniei

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. ia special dis
patch from New York says W. H. Wander
bilt caused the Lake Shore Railway COM
pany to issue between $6,OO0,0O0 and S.
100000 in bonds to pay for the Nickel
Plate stock he bought, and that when he
proposed this scheme at meeting of the
Lake Shore directors held some time ago
in Erie, because the laws of Ohio and New
York prohibit the consolidation of com
peting lines, Hon. II. B. Payne and Amasa
Stone, of this city, protested and resigned.
These gentlemen were seen to-day and
asked about the truth of the report. Mr..
Payne said he resigned as director OF the
Lake Shore last November and his resig-
nation was final. Mr.. Stone said his health
is poor, and he has not attended meetings
of the directors for long time, but if oc-
casion should arise when the directors
have no quorum they have document
authorizing them to put some one in his
place. Both gentlemen declined to give a
reason for resigning, or say anything con-
corning the rumored issue of Lake Shore
bonds to buy the Nickel Plate. They
neither denied nor confirmed the report.

were more than usually large, and the ru-
NOR that the late improvement in prices
paid had the effect of causing a general
effort to hurry the porkers into Chicago
had somewhat depressing effect.
Under the influence of the liberal re-
the market for hog products ruled weak
during the early at of the day, and price S
ruled decidedly lower on all leading specu-
lative descriptions. Toward the Iclose the
feeling was steadier, at the decline sub
mitted to, for trading was not particularly
active, and prices a little more favorable
to buyers. Foreign advices in
dicated steady feeling in that
quarter, and short clear sides
were reported Sd higher. Eastern maj
kets were easier in a general way. The
receipts of product were moderate, and
the shipments quite liberal of all kiuds
and widely distributed. The inquiry for
mess pork was moderately active and the
offerings free. Prices declined 15@ zoe but
closed comparatively steady at outside
figures, half of the decline being recovered.
The inquiry for lard was free and the de-
mand moderately active. Prices reached
1o@121sc per 100 pounds, and closed
steady at medium figures. Cash quiet.
On call both pork and lard were rather
active and better prices we're paid. Most of
the decline was made up before the close of
the day. Live hogs sold 5@10c
lower, the $4,000 receipts making a weak
market.
At the annual meeting of the board of
trade addresses were made by R. W. Dun
ham, the retiring president, J. B. Hobbs,
president elect, and G. L. Hutchinson,
second vice president elect. The annual
report of the board of directors showed
total receipts of $73,417.46; balance on
hand at last report $122, 863.81; total pay
ments S132,973.18; cash in hands of treas
urer $63,306.09. The directors refer to the
bucket shops as stencil in the nostrils of
all good people, and express the belief
that the courts of the county will not sus-
tain their claims. The real estate man
ayers reported that up to Dec. $110,-
$3.50 had been paid on the new building
exclusive of what had been paid the archi-
tect and managers. The total cost of the
building is estimated not to exceed ST.
100000.
