THE LIVERPOOL FAILURES.

THE LIVERPOOL FAILURE
London, November 1.-The Times
attributes the failure of Morris Ranger,
the Liverpool cotton broker, to his
grossly reckless speculation in Eng
land and America and on the CONT
nent. IL says he aimed TO control the
cotton exchange of the world, and had
the help of wealthy houses in London,
New York and Hamburg. The effect
of the failures in Liverpool will be
local. The London money market Is
not affected by them. There will
probably be an increased demand Tor
cotton, followed by reaction. The
Times severely condemns the wild
, dealing in futures prevailing in Liver
pool, and advises the adoption OF
American rules for the deposit of mar
gins.

COLLEGE ATHLETICS.

DR.. McCosh, the President of Prince
ton College, in an address at the opening
OF the college term, strongly condemned
the excessive indulgence by the stu
dents in athletic sports and games. He
complained that the conversation heard
on the campus related not to science and
knowledge, but to various games and
records. and that the college papers
were devoted to gymnastics and ath.
%letios, instead Of literature. Undoubt.
eddy athletic exercises can be, and
sometimes are, carried to excess by
college students, but it is exceedingly
doubtful whether disquisitions On soienoe
and literature will ever form the bur
den Of talk on any college campus On
this planet.
We are not informed whether DR.. Nc
Gosh has detected any deterioration in
the intellectual standing Of his students
as a consequence Of their fondness for
athletic games, but President Eliot Of
Harvard College, in making his annual
report the other day, considered
the question Of the effect Of athletics
upon the standing Of the students in
their classes, and gave some very inter
esting statistics tending to prove that
stTfdGhTs who are conspicuous in ath-
letio sports do not, as a rule, fall be-
hind others in the class rooms and at ex-
aminations. On the contrary. President
Eliot, while adding a warning against
excess, finds that sit is agreed on all sides
that increased attention given to physi-
cal exercise and athletic sports within
the past % years has been on the whole
Of great advantage to the university"
and that ''the ideal student has been
transformed from a STOPPING, weak and
sickly youth into one well formed, robust
and healthy"
The question of physical exercise for
college students is of the utmost impor-
tance. The value and necessity of such
exercise are recognized by all, and col
lege authorities cannot be too careful in
placing restrictions upon it to avoid any
thing like undue repression. In fact,
experience shows that there are not a
few students who, instead Of being dis
eouraged from engaging in athletic
sports, need to be warned against
neglocting them.

YuE PRIVATE ssCKErARYsHIP'

II IS generally understood tAa' VIM
Garrard is to be Governor Adams Pm
yate Secretary after the adjournment OF
the present Legislature. 1t may even be
stated right here, on authority, that TINS
"a a fact. The statement Is not made Tor
the sake Of a newspaper item, but in
order rather to set speculation at rest as
70 the tenure Of Office OF the present
incumbent, and for the sake OF the OPP
portunity it affords rs to express our
-disapproval OF the unfriendly criticism
which Mr.. Adams has been subjected
to in the premises. 1t was known to
the editor Of the SENTINEL before the
appointment of Hon. Geo. w. Merrill
had been announced that his incum-
b-ncy would be for the session Of the
Legislature only, or until the expiration
of Mr.. Garrard's term OF office as War
den OF the State Prison. From various
quarters we have heard the slurring
criticism made, based, doubtless, upon
a newspaper squib or two to the same
effect, that Gov. Adams would not be
treating 3lr. Merrill right to appoint
him for a month or two and then dis
place him Tor another. All such gratu-
tons expressions Of Pecksnifian inter-
est in MIR. Merrill are certainly dis
tasteful TO that gentleman; IS distastetul
to him as they are unjust IN their
reflection upon Governor Adams. The
assertion is not made, only the infer
ence is thrown out, that Mr.. Adams
has deceived his temporary Secretary
and given him to understand that his
appointment is for four years. This
sort Of hog-wash scandal Is OF a piece
with that which was used against Mr..
Adams in the recent election, and which
the sensible people Of Nevada were
evidently not disposed TO give ear to.
The Governor has a right to appoint
his Private Secretary for any length OF
time he pleases, and that he should
give the situation to Mr.. Merrill tempo
rarity is his own affair, and his alone.
But that the temporary appointment was
made in any way 50 as 10 leave room for a
misapprehension in Mr.. Merrill's mind as
to how long it would last, We have not the
remotest idea. In fact we know that
when Mr.. Merrill accepted the engage
ment II was with the explicit under
standing 0; the conditions as announced
in this article. Let those who have tears
to shed for Mr.. Merrill reserve them for
somebody else that feels more in need OF
Iachrymose sympathy, and that will be
more appreciatjye OF the fearful testi-
monial; and, also, let those who are
SO hard up Tor material out Of which to
manufacture scanda! at Mr.. Adams ex-
pense husband their wit and resources
until a better opportunity for criticism
is afforded.

A SINGULAR STORY.
A Los New York Merchant Turns
I'm i'm ~eyasia


a New York correspondent tells this
singular story, illustrative of what people
will do on the spur Of the moment and &C.
tuated by q sudden impulse: A merchant
sat in his Office one day in the year 1868.
Tho weather was very hot, for it was July,
and business was dull. Picking up q news
paper the merchant read Of a great discov-
cry of silver ore just made by two miners
III the Nevada Mountains. He put on his
hat, opened the safe and tool out a few
hundred dollars from a private drawer,
and walked out. He was never seen again.
His business was left uncared for, unfin-
ished, and was finally wound up by his
friends. His clerks entered other estab-
lIshments and the man was apparently for
gotten. In 1879 one of the clerks was
travelling through Nevada. and being in
vited to stop and examine some smelling
works, was taken through the building. In
one corner he saw a pair of mules going
round and round in q ring, turning some
kind OF simple machinery. A little sur
prised at this crude contriyance in the
midst of steam engines and stamp mills,
he paused a moment to look at it, and
noticed an aged, crippled man engaged in
driving the animals. Something familiar
about the man caused him to look again,
when he found that the mule driver was
his cid employer, the missing merchant.
When questioned, he stated that the news
paper article about the silver discovery
had put it into his head that to find silver
was an easier way of getting rich, and he
started for the West, intending to write
when he had found a silver mine. Up to
that time the mine had not been found,
and be had become so wretched and de-
spondent hat he had gone from bad to
worse, until mule driving seemed about all
he was fit for. This man has recovered
from his insanity, and is to-day in New
York with his family, the old clerk having
brought him back.

Jack Ross Killed by James COOmb

Jack Ross Killed by James BIS.
CARSON, Jan. 20.-At 2:20 this morning
James Coombs, a gambler, shot and killed
Jack Ross, one of the proprietors OF
Sweeney's saloon. Among the many con-
HlctiDg stories the version most generally
considered as the correct one is that Coombs
came up to Ross as he sat at card table
and attempted to borrow some money. 1t
was refused, when he struck Ross in the
back Of the neck with a cane. The two
men rushed out Of the gambling room
toward the bar, Ross being unarmed and
endeavoring either 70 escape or reach a
weapon. AS he reached the door leading
into the saloon he received a bullet in the
side. After firing the shot Coombs slipped
and fell, and Ross turning, sprang upon
him and tried TO wrench the pistol from
his hand, when he received the second
ball between the eyes, and died soon after.
Coombs gave himself up.
