THE TRIBUNE has refrained from directing
attention unnecessarily to Mr.. Stead's campaign
against London vice. Revolving as the details
of this exposure were, the movement, which
he headed with almost fanatical zeal, had en-
listed the support of many distinguished
humanitarians IN England, and it was obviously
premature TO condemn 1t until the agencies en-
plOyed and the sources of information depended
upon had been Investigated by the courts. Now
that the methods of the agitators have been
judieially probed, and Mr.. Stead and his
accOmpliees have been sentenced it seems
necessary TO discuss the public and moral
aspects of the movement. Our London CORE
spOndent dues this with singular delcacy and
impartiality ia a letter published on another
page. His judgments are shared by so conspc-
uous an organ of progressive Liberalism as The
Spectator, and must be accepted as conclusive
by all judiciOus advocates of social reform.

The Senate Committee has finally found out
why the consolidated gas companies in their
efforts to give the public cheap gas increased
their capital stock by So, 100000. 1t was in
order that the holders of the consolidated stock
should receive as much with 7 per cent diyi-
dends after consolidation us they had before
the combination. Thus in the case of a com
pany that was paying u per cent, the holder
of one share of the old stock received in ex-

This was indeed pleasant for the stockholders,
but it Is not clear how the plan was expected

which rendered the consolidation possible.

An armistice has been concluded between
Servia and Bulgaria, but not until Austria had
shown her teeth Prince Alexander was in
formed yesterday that his honor as soldier
had been sustained by his recent victories, and
that if he moved a kilometer further West,
Austrian troops would Cross the frontier. This
ultimatum must have impressed both Servia
and Bulgaria with sense of their National
littleness. They can play at independence NJ
to a certain point; but a slight pull at their
leading strings, either by Austria or Russia.

The list of persons killed while working on
the new aqueduct grows apace, and already
numbers between thirty and forty. 1t may be
said OF the accident of yesterday, as has been
said of all that have preceded 1.-THE laborers
who were killed alone were to blame. Doyle,
for instance, leaned too far out of the descend
ing bucket aud in falling Knocked three
men out or the ascending bucket. This may
be; but would it not be possible to have the
means of going up and down the shafts 80 safe
that an accident like this could not occur 7
Certainly the laborers have nothing to do with
providing the necessary machinery, but the
contractors do, and the latter, therefore, and
not the workmen, are morally responsible for
resulting calamlties, whether they are so
legally Or not.

prosecution charges her with con-

consider that they have found
some very damaging testimony
against her, as the examination il

An ~ALIVE" PAPER.
Some Opinions from Journal
iStic Experts.

/
Ruff. Shoemaker, of the Foothil
Tidings, whose experience in jour
| nalism gives his opinions weight,
| says: "The Carson, Nevada, AP-
PEAL INDUCES in quite a talk
about the attempts that have been
made to break up that paper by
starting journals in opposition to
it. The attempts have failed so
far, and are likely to keep on fail
ing. We do not know how the
Carson folks feel about the AP-
PEAL, but we do know that the pa
per is appreciated all over the
country. Papers containing mat
ter that first appeared in the AP-
PEAL, come to US from all sections.
Sometimes credits are ommitted
in Eastern papers, and the San
Francisco papers print and credit
to the East. Only good things can
come from the East is the San
Francisco doctrine
The Lyon County Times, also ed
tied by an expert, takes up this
subject as follows: ''The Carson
APPEAL says some parties are
talking of starting another paper
in Carson with the avowed inten-
ton Of freezing the APPEAL out
There are great many fools in
this world, some of whom evidently
live in Carson; but the biggest
fools are those who have an idea
that small plea town will support
two or three agate papers. The
APPEAL is the "alivest" paper in
the State today, except the Times,
and for any one to try and
freeze it out would be harder job
than to climb the narrow and
crooked path that leads to the
relms above where all editors will
dwell in peace and happiness for
evermere."
We believe that the time will
come when the man who starts a
new paper in Carson will be sent
1t once to Reno, and his case
booked under the head of "Senile
Demention."

1,HE NEW TRACK.
Opened Yesterday With Good
Racing

Yesterdays races at Swceny'
new track were fairly attended and
the crowd were treated to a good
days sport.
THE RUNNING RACE
Was a mile dash between Stuff
Box, Stoneman and Conquest. The
pools favored Snuff Box, who, at
the tap Of the drum, hustled him
self into the lead, and held 1t to
the close. passing under the wire
with no special effort in 1:59.
THE TROTTING RACE
Between Lucy, Kate Bender and
Victor. was the best part Of the
days programme, and gave the
spectators their full moneys worth.
Lucy drew the pole, with kate Sec
ond. After half = dozen false
starts they got the tap, and Kate,
breaking at the turn. gave Victor
the next place. On the back
stretch Kate came well up but
broke again, and Victor, when
about to catch the advantage went
to pieces, Lucy taking the heat in
2:451.
SECOND HEAT.
Kate broke at the turn, but
caught her feet quickly, as the air
was filled with Dan Dennison's
CALCULATIONS, and along the back
stretch the race was closely con-
tested and good to sec. Coming
down the home-stretch Kate broke
under the whip, and Lucy took the
heat with Victor close enough to
be dangerous second. Time 2::422.
THIRD HEAT.
Half an hour was spent in scor-
ing until the judges were obliged
% reprimand the jockies. They
inally got the word when Dennison
" a mighty squirt lifted his nag
nto FIRST place, collaring the others
It the turn. He seemed in a way
o win the heat when his mare
,roke badly and he ran her all the
way down the back-stretch, coming
lnder the wire . length ahead.
The judges, however, placed him
Jack for his running, and gave the
leat and race to Lucy, Victor get
ing second money. Time 2:42a.
HALF NILE DASH.
The half mile mile dash between
4ige Clark and Black Pilot, was
asily captured by Pilot. Time So
cconds.

REV. JENvY's STORY.
He Tells Good One on Virginia
City.

He Tells a Good One on Virginis
City.
The Pittsburg Dispatch has the
following story, which must have
been told the reporter by the Rev
Jenny, who is now In the East and
was once a clergyman in Virginia
City. The case as stated by Rev.
Jenny is literally true:
An Episcopal minister, who ar.
rived in this city a few days ago
from Ncva Ia, where be has been
doing missionary work for several
years, tells some curious stories Of
people and things in that country.
He spent a portion of his time in
Virginia City, and had to look to
the people for his support. Once a
week he went among the business
men for contributions. He took in
the saloons and gambling shops,
as well as the banks and stores,
Contributions we're generally on a
liberal scale, as the people, though
not particularly religious, thought
we'll OF the cause, and vowed, one
and ali. that they would not let the
preacher suffer. On almost every
round he received a number of
poker chips" worth from 81 to IS.
these he would take to the bank,
where they were readily cashcd.
Among the saloon-keepers was \
perfect Hercules in stature and
strength. He was a man of violent
temper and savage disposition, and
had killed his man. He was, there
fore, generally feared. This man
was practically boss of the town.
He sent the preacher word that he
would like to see him at his
saloon. The preacher went, and
was informed that he could get
from S. to $40 . week by calling
At the saloon for it, and that it
would be taken as an insult if he
refused. The proposition was
accepted, and thereafter
- long as the preacher remained in
Town he had no better frien nd or
more liberal contributor than the
ourly saloon-keeper. On one occa-
ZION, while in the saloon to receive
his weekly stipend, another minis
er entered and presented his
'laims for assistance. The saloon
nan refused to give him anything,
aging: What are you doing in
own, anyhow? l suppose you
want to start an opposition church,
r something, and get up a row
,mong us Christians. I'll tell you
vhy l won't give any money. You

oons and gambling-dens. He

The Cherokee Strip

WASHINGTON. July S.-The reported
obstruction of cattle trails through In
dian territory by settlers upon the
Cherokee strip is engrossing the atten-
ton of the Secretary of the Interior.
In answer to complaints made by
drovers that thea were not per-
mitted to take their cattle
over; the established trails, the
Secretary telegraphed that no one
had a right to obstrucU them, and.
nevertheless, it appears that officers OF
the Federal courts IN Kansas. whose
jurisdiction extends over the Cherokee
strip, have disFegarded these kilograms,
and persisted in excluding Texas cattle
under the act of May 24th, 1884, which
forbids any person to drive cattle
on foot through any state OF
Territory, knowing them to be infected
with contagious disea-e. Secretary
Lamar has now requested the Attorney
General to instruct the officers to cease
their opposition to those using es
tablished trails, and to refrain from in
terfering with the cattle droves while
ON the trails in the Indian Territory.
