ON THE SHOOT.
An Enraged Woman Providing
Around, Heavily Armed.
She Meets Her Man, Who Makes
A Narrow Escape.

Another escapade in addition to the
one given to the readers of The LEADER
yesterday morning can now be given in
reference to the Porter-Lear imbroglio.
This morning at about | o clock, q. w.
Lear went into Fred Landau's saloon on
Seventeenth street and was there for some
little time watching the games that were
being played. There was quite a large
crowd present, when suddenly a woman
came to the back door and opened it.
One of the parties present sang out to
Lear Look out George, there is Blanche
and she wants to see you Starting up
Lear replied She don't want to see me.
Yes, | do want to see YOU exclaimed
Miss Porter, who had by this time got
into the room heavily armed with a pair
Of six-shooters.
What do you want of me2" inquired
Lear, becoming as pale as u ghost.
Il want some money, - was the reply.
But | havn't got any, said Lear.
Yes, you have; you have got some
money, it is mine and | am going to have
it,! said the woman.
BY this time things were looking very
squally and the crowd began to thin out,
fearful Of an ugly shooting match. Lear
began to fall back in good order also, but
the enraged woman followed him up
evidently bent in getting him into Il posi-
ton where she could fire on him without
hitting any other person. Finally the
crowd began to swarm out of the door.
The last to effect AN egress from the
building was Lear. but there were two
men still near him when he went out of
the door 50 that she could get no oppor-
tunity to fire. Once ont of the building
Lear ran at the top Of his speed and was
soon out of harm 5 way.
Porter then disappeared also but no
one seemed to know where She went. In
about ten minutes Lear returned to the
same place and inquired whether she had
gone. He was told that she had. Con
stable Nolan. however, who had put in an
appearance shortly after Portrr's appear
ance and who had been there up to the
time when Lear returned. passed out
shortly afterwards, but turned and looked
back into the building. Lear saw him
and installing him for Porter exclaimed,
There that again and Immediately
rushed out the back way and ran like a
deer. Up to the hour of going to press
this morning he had not been seen any
where around town.

The Royal Marionettes certainly possess
the merit Of novelty so far as Cheyenne is
concerned. The novelty, however, is of
that %listless and unsatisfactory character
that fails to arouse genuine enthusiasm.
Mechanically the Marioncttes are I'M
doubtcdly ingenious, but the entertain.
ment in many respects is more suited for
a parlor than an Opera house. OF the
large audience that witnessed the per
Torrance last evening nobody seemed
carried away with enthusiasm and while
there were some points Of excellence the
entertainment as a whole was not salts

1t was stated in this city last NIGHT on
apparently reliable authority that Mr.. +.
Dickinson had resigned the general sup

from Cheyenne to Ogden. 1t was also
said the resignation had been brought
about By the desire of Mr.. Dickinson to
accept the assistant general supcrinten-
dency of the Milwaukee 4 st. Paul road
under Superintendent J. T. Clarke, which
place had been offered to him. Whether
the report was absolutely true could not
be ascertained, but those who are usually
well informed give it credence. If it
should prove true it will be regretted by
every employe of the road, with all of
whom Mr.. Dickinson has been Justly

First National Closed.

First National Closed.
Yesterday w. E. Pyle, of Stebbns,
Mund g. Co., received a telegram from
Mp. Langford. national bank examiner
of this district, asking HIM to act as his
(Mr. Langford 81 assistant in the mat
ter of the First National bank.
Mr.. Pyle accepted the trust,
and il accordance with Mr.. Lang
ford's directions, closed the bank and
posted notice on the door that ~
was in the hands of the examiner and
that no further business would be
transacted. No one but MI. Pyle is
allowed access 10 the bank 0. its
books. A statement of assets and Ii
abilities is being made out to forward
to Mr.. Langford, upon receipt of
which further action will probably be
taken toward winding up its affairs.
WHAT MIR. FOGARTY SAYS.
D. E. Fogarty. cashier OF the First
National. returned last evening from
St. Paul, and went Immediately to his
room at the Albemarle, where he has
since remained, confined to his bed.
There lie was seen to-day by repre-.
sentative of the ENTERPRISE. He is
suffering from great nervous prostra-
ton, doubtless induced by the long
strain upon his body and mind before
the crisis of the bank S affairs and
the trouble in which he has been in-
volved by that unfortunate result.
Mr.. Fogarty, though able to converse
but little, said to the ENTERPRISE:
1.-The condition of the First National
| is a greater source of worry and anxi-
ETY. to me than anyone else.. Beside
having lost everything in it, l cannot
but feel that am being blamed for
the entire difficulty; do not, how
ever, consider my own losses as l do
those who who were associated with
me in the bank. and the inconven-
ience resulting to the banks credi-
tors. The liabilities Of the First
National, us I remember without
having the books before me, are
about $4,000, every cent OF which
will be paid. The assets are about
So, 900, not all Of which are imme-
plately available. The bank is now
in the hands Of the examiner; no re.
caiver has been appointed, and it may
he that the stock will yet be taken by
other parties and the bank re.opened.
If not the comptroller of the curr en-
cy will wind up the bank S affairs and
all liabilities will be paid.
No person can consider Mr.. Fo.
garty's case without sympathizins
with his misfortunes. Ever since he
came, to Livingston he has worked
hard foI the interests Of this town and
country, and many material reminders
Of what good he has done remain as
, lasting monuments. Mr.. Ward Was
cashier Of the First National until
February. when Mr.. Fogarty took tho
position. 1t is Il well.known fact that
FOR several months he has been strug-
Cling against fearful odds to maintain
the banks standing, and it is only.
wonderful that he succeeded so long
AS he did. It is said 1.-THE evil that
men do lives after them; the good is
oft inferred with their lones. 1t is
, also too true that when a business man
goes to the wall the benefits he llas
conferred upon the community are for
gotten, and only the less popular incl
E dents in his career are looked at.

s7a. the voice al the States was obcyed.
and IN that case n was decided:
aThc Court on the day succeeding !hc srgnmenn.
delivered an unan. nous opinion, mat tne smcnu ,s
meat being edoP,ec, ny cac pas
sca sofa Of another state" &c.
This not only decided as TO future suits,
but the decision went further and deeper
and swept away every suit previously com
menced, showing very plainly that state
could never have been sued, and that tncrc
never was any such intention to be derived
from. or any such construction TO be placed
upou. the Constitution. Judge hughes
contends that By inference, under the nrst
clause OF the iurisdictional section OF the
Constitution, q State could be sued by It's
own citizens, and that the eleventh amend
ment in denying the right to sue to citizens
of another State only, affirmed the section
In favor OF citizen sueing his own STATE,
on the principle erpresSio unsus est erclt-
$40 diferius.
This is very plausible; but there can be
no power or right derived by Inference
from the Constitution, as maintained In the
first portion OF this argument, by the whole
tenor and spirit OF the Constitution. and as
clearly laid down in the tenth amendment.
On the other hand, II the foregoing view
OF the decision in the case OF Chisolm Us.
Virginia. and the effect and true meaning
OF the eleventh amendment is correct
viz, that the eleventh amendmentmeant 10
say that State never could have been sued
that the Judicial construction In Chlsoim
Us. Virginia was wrong. II this view be
correct, there is no ground at all for Judge
Hughes's opinion that the right OF a citizen
TO sue his own State exists. A LAWYER.

PORTYEIGHTH CONGRESS.
Senate Proceedings Yesterday.

WASHINGTON. June 3, 1884.
Among the petitions presented was one
by Mr.. Brown from the Georgia Medical
Society OF Savannah. the Augusta Academy
Of Medicine, and the Board Of Health OF
Augusta, Ga, praying that reward be
offered by Congress for the discovery OF
the causes or germ Of yellow-feyer. with
the mode or treatment that will prevent or
cure the disease.
In accordance with the understanding OF
Yesterday the Senate proceeded to the con-
sideration OF the calendar OF cases unob-
jected to, and disposed of large number
OF bills. Among those passed was one
granting annual leave OF absence, with
pay, to letter-carriers amended so as to
fix the leave at fifteen days.
BY bali-past the end OF the calendar
was reached. One hundred and eighteen
bills had been taken up. siXty-two OF them
passed, and one or two postponed.
The Senate adjourned till Friday. Only
about a dozen senator's were present, and
the galleries were bare.
House OF Representatives.
The House passed bin which prohibits
the enclosure Of any public land where the
person or corporation making enclosure
has no claim or color OF title to the land,
and makes it lawful for any person to tear
down or demoiish any such enclosure
when ii includes more than 100 acres.
The 18th OF June was set apart for the
consideration OF the electoral-count bill.
The bill FORGETTING the Immigrant Of the
Oregon Central railroad was taken up.
The debate which followed was addressed
to empty seats or to little knots OF men,
bers who assembled to discuss the politi-
cal situation at Chicago. The bulletin
board placed in the members lobby was
the centre of attraction, and the signif-
canoe attaching to the choice OF the Con-
vention for temporary chairman was the
chief topic Of conversation. Every dis
patch was eagerly awaited, and the chances
OF various candidates canvassed in the lobby,
on the floor, and IN the cloak-rooms.
The vote on the passage Of the bill stood,
yeas 1874, nays 22-no quorum; and the
House at $50 p. NJ, adjourned.

The Street Railway.

The Street Railway Company first ran
its road out Reservoir street to the western
entrance to Hollywood. II soon removed
the track. II then ran it down Laurel
street TO point opposite the eastern en-
trance TO Hollywood. But this also proved
to be an Improbable investment. 1t then
ran IL to the present terminus, corner OF
Main and Reservoir streets. Since the
Nam street line was established the COM
pany has had abundant proof that Main
street is the proper line upon which to run
the cars for the accommodation OF the peo-
ple of the west end. Now let the line be
continued to the top Of the hill just be-
yond Judge MINORS, and the company
will not repent it. Thousands OF people
will flock to the new reservoir by that
route, not minding the distance when this
is reduced to less than half mile. We do
not object to track on Reservoir street.
Not at all. But II there is TO be extension
in only one direction, it does seem to us
that up Main street is the proper One-that
il, the one that will pay; because 1t will
accommodate the largest number of people.
A ride out Main and Reservoir streets and
I'D Cary and Ashland streets, and along a
few other streets in that section OF the city,
will satisfy anybody that line UP Main
street will attract most passengers.
