The Philadelphia Record,
looking at the Comstock, says :
Look out for a boom in Bonanza
stock. If all the mines in the
lode from Potosi to Belcher be
brought under one management
there will be less water and
more ore brought up. 1t is
shrewdly believed that bad
management has had more to
do with the falling off Of the
Bonanza stocks than any failure
of the vein, and if the small
holders have been shaken out,
it is now time to bull the mar
ket again. In this, as in almost
all speculations, the safest way
to keep ahead Of the market is
to keep out of it.

HAMBURG, Jan. 23.-R. c. Lorens,
of Frankfort, one Of the rescued pas
sengers of the Cimbria, gives long &C.
count of the terrible scenes he wit.

duty nobly, they were unable to main.
tain order. Men, women and children
were mad with fear Those who occurred
places had violent struggle to
keep the boat from being swamped.
The six Indians were driven away by
some sailors by Ak blows ON their
hands. Captain Hansen stood till the
last moment on the bridge, but could
have no control over the 500 terror.
stricken human beings beneath him.
Men, women and children and whole
families chung together in de.
spair. One young married couple
preferred to meet death quickly by
cutting each the others veins. The ship
doctor, Herr Feige and some Of the
stewards aud stewardesses and some
officers distributed life-saving belts to
the last moment, but those thus provided
were not benefited, for most of
them died from severe cold. The sur.
vivors who escaped in the boats say
that when they rowed away the water
was covered with dead bodies kept up
by the life belts. Only a few were
alive when they lett. and of these az
many were taken into the boats as
possible.
LONDON, Jan. 23.-The Times says it
is evident that Salisbury's proceedings
in Dublin unveiled conspiracy to
murder the Executive Officers. The
secrets of the prosecution have thus far
been kept with praiseworthy discretion.
1t is not believed that counsel for the
Crown has begun with the strongest
part OF the case. The inquiry will prob.
ably be protracted for several weeks.

There is a move being made
in Carson to continue to print
the Supreme Court Reports in
San Francisco, and if it is de-
cided to compile the laws to
have it done in San Francisco.
The State has a first-class print
ing office, capable Of doing any
kind of work required. 1t
would be folly to continue to
send the work below and if it
is done it will smack very large
ly of job. Since the establish
ment of the State Printing
Office the work has cost less
than it did before, to say nothing
of the good policy of keeping

posted up a list containing the
name Of every man who votes
against the interest of Nevada
printers by having the Nevada
laws and Supreme Court Reports
printed in San Francisco. There
are nearly 1000 printers in this
State, and such a bill is a blow
at the typographical profession.
Every editor should keep in his
