The announcement hat A. G. Snyder,
the popular and efficient manager of the
Western Union telegraph Office in this
city, has purchased the meat market Of
Jay Pettibone 4 Co., Seventeenth street,
will be received with pleasure by the many
friends of the veteran operator. Mr..
Snyder has been engaged in the Western
Union telegraph office here for fourteen
years-most of the time as manager-and
the people can attest the fact that he has
always been accommodating and efficient.
His responsible duties-which, by the
way, are greater than is generally sup
posed-have always been discharged with
a fidelity that has won for him the
warmest friendship of his superior officers.
Mr.. Snyder can truly look back upon a
telegraphic career that has been honora-
Bile to himself and satisfactory to the
telegraph company and to the people.
He will carry into his new enterprise the
same good business traits that have proved
him to be capable of accomplishing what
ever he undertakes.
Mr.. Snyder's resignation as manager of
the telegraph Office has been rendered,
and when he is relieved by his successor
he will devote all of his time and attention
to his new business, in which his many
friends will join in wishing him unbounded
success.

term. Why, therefore, should tho Sun
endeavor to make matters worse and hurt
our community? Wyoming is discon-
nected with the matter entirely. 1t is a
New York affair and only rotten brokers
have failed.
The Metropolitan bank and its associ-
ate, the Atlantic State bank, of Brooklyn,
which suspended yesterday, were backing
up the stock gamblers who had sought to
make a corner in cash. Both were
squeezed to the wall as they deserved to
be. Their failure, together with the fail
ures of a few brokers, were all caused by
improper speculations in railroad stocks.
Legitimate banks are as sound as ever.
Wyoming does not depend for business
upon stock speculations. She is in a leg
itimate business and cannot be seriously
affected by rotten speculation in Wall
street.
1t was more scare than substance in
New York, yesterday.
People must eat and therefore Wyo-
ming's beef business is always safe.
There is more money in Wall street to-
day than at any time within ten years.
Now that the big fish have eaten a few
little ones let them give the country some
benefit of their repast.
As the banks and business men of Wv
oming do not dabble in railroad stocks,
they are not affected by the furry in Wall
streets yesterday. Their New York cor
respondents are in every case legitimate
bankers, not given to wildcat speculations.

THE COMMISSIONERS.
They Hold a Special Session to Dispose
of Some Business.

The County Commissioners held a
special meeting at the Court house yester-
day, Messrs. Dyer and Hoyt being
present, The question of contemplated
roads was discussed to some extent by
the Loard. They finally proceeded to
take action on the petition which had
been pending before them in regard to
the establishment of road from Hinker's
ranch in a southeasterly direction to the
Colorado line. The board voted to grant
the request of the petitioners and ordered
the road opened in accordance with the
description as set forth in the petition.
The board then, in accordance with the
verdict Of the jury which declared as
being of unsound mind Mrs. Jane B.
Mcclure, proceeded to take steps for her
transportation to the insane asylum at
Lincoln, Neb. Arrangements were finally
made with her husband, J. X. Mcclure,
to convey her to that place.
Some other matters were talked over,
but no final action was taken in regard to
them.

ISCENDIARISM.
'old Attempt in Broad Daylight to
start a Big Connagration.

One of the boldcst attempts to burn a
portion of the city was made yesterday
morning, that has ever happened in the
history of Cheyenne. 1t consisted in set
ting fire to the old ''dobie" warehouse,
now used by the Stanley Brothers in CON
nection with their grocery store on Seven
teenth street. Smoke and sparks were
discovered in the rear end of the long
building when it was opened in the morn
ing, and the startling disclosure was made
that a fire was getting a firm foothold in
the corner of the building next to
the north window. 1t was quickly
ex%tinguished, however, and no alarm of
fire was sounded. The fire had been set
from the outside by means of piling up
on the window sill Il quantity of old rags
and setting them on fire. The fire burned
through the sill from the outside, and one
of large number of bales of hay piled
up near the window had just begun to
burn when the fire was discovered. In a
very short time hadit not been discovered,
n big conflagration weuld have been the
result. Mr.. Stanley has no idea who
could have done it and no clue to the
would-be ~incendiary has yet been OBJ
tanned.

The Deadwood Times contains an ac-
count of the suicide in that town of a
former resident of Cheyenne, named
Charles White, a carpenter. The deed
was committed by shooting himself twice,
the first time through the left breast and
that not having the desired effect he
tried it again, the second shot passing
through his heart. White was married
here in Cheyenne and family difficulties
is the reason assigned for the rash deed.

The Authorities Al a Loss To Knov
What to do with Her.


CRAZY Jane is now confined in the
calaboose but the authorities are puzzled
to know what ought to be done with her.
That she is not a safe person to be run
ming at large is acceded by all who are
at all familiar with her case. That the
unfortunate woman is insane has been
pretty thoroughly demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the. police at least and
many others. Whether this insanity was
primarily caused by excessive drink it
does not now matter. The question is
what to do with her, and is she really in
ane Those who have observed her
closely in her wild antics around the city
contend that there can be no question OF
it. If such is the case then there ought
to be some steps taken at once to have
her brought before the Probate court and
so adiudged.

into.
Night before last a building used and
occupied for the most part as a sort of a
store room and office combined and stu
ated at the stock yards in the south
weste RI portion of the city, was broken
into and a valuable saddle, worth about
forty dollars, together with some other
articles stolen and carried away. The
saddle which was taken belonged to Mr..
Kemp, while the other articles, consisting
offs blanket, spurs, etc, were the proper
ty of other parties.
No clue could be obtained to the thief
but it is supposed that the theft was com
mitted by som party who has concealed
the property until such time as a horse
can be stolen to accompany the other ac-
cOutrements.
