Idaho Mail Route.
Silver State.

A letter from Hon. Ct. w. Cassidy,
dated Washington, June 18th, informs
us that the Winnemucca and Boise
mail matter was settled on that date
by a compromise. The Department
had ruled against the continuance of
the through route and had resolved to
cut out the 100 miles between Fort
McDermit and Jordan Valley, and
had issued an order to that effect.
Then Messrs. Cassidy and HALEY sub
mitted a proposition, in order to save
the through connection, to reduce the
service on the 100 miles in the center
to three times a week. After demon.
strating by the figures that the De.
partment would save as much by this
course as by the plan it had proposed
the proposition was accepted, and we
will now have daily service from Win
nemucca to Fort McDermit, tri-week
" service from McDermit to Jordan
Valley, and daily service from Jordan
Valley to Boise City. Mr.. Cassid,
says that saving as much as they dit
of the service was largely due to tn
experience and earnestness of Hon
John Haley, the able delegate from
Idaho, who is not only familiar wit
all of the mail service in Nevada an,
Idaho, but is an intelligent and indie
fatigable worker.

A Washington dispatch says Sec
rotary Bayard has formulated plan
by which he proposes to obtain for
American manufacturers, through the
medium of United States Consuls in
Europe, all the information they de-
sire regarding manufactures abroad.
He has written to large number of
manufacturers of all kinds of articles
throughout the country asking them
to submit to him any question cover
ing subjects upon which they desire
information regarding the manufac-
ture of their respective classes OF
goods in foreign countries, and these
questions will be sent to the United
States Consuls abroad with instruc.
tons to obtain the information sought
Mr.. Bayard hopes by this plan to pro
cure for our manufacturers such in
formation as will show conciusivel,
whether, in the price Of raw material
cost of labor, improved machinery
ETC., American or European manufac
turers have the advantage in the pro
duction of manufactured articles
Secretary Bayard believes that tn
possession of such information regard
ing the cost of manufacture and prize
of raw materials abroad will also b
of great advantage to the Unite
States Government as guide to tn
collection of duty on imported art
Giles of foreign manufacture. Secre
tary Manning is in full cooperate

LIGONDI NOTES.

On Saturday last Judge White re0dered his
looked for decision in the case OF John f..
Trazel against the Clark aJd Union Turn
pike Company, in which many OF our citizens
are interested The suit was broughl to test
the question as to the right OF the Pike Com
pany to collect toll between Lagonds and the
city proper, after the corporate limits were ex-
tended and the gate being inside the city
limits. A large number OF farmers and 9th
ers refused to pay toll for months, which was
charged up against them. The Judge decided
that the company bad right to collect toll,
which they intend to do, 80 that some
lively times may be expected
The people will fight them
TO the bitter end Oscar 7. Martin is the
attorney tor the company soft anyone wishes
to settle up, one who knows says it can be
done much cheaper privately than if ii is
forced TO a settlement.

BEAVER FALLS. Pa, Oct. l6.-Several
weeks ago the natural gas mains from tr'.
place were laid to Patterson Heights, a SUI
burban retreat on top OF the hills overlook
ing the town. Stand pipes were erected,
burners attached, and lighted every night
Since that innumerable rabbits, no doubt at
trsctei by the bright light and pleasau
warmth, have been in the habit OF congre-
gazing around these lights every night, and
hiding, running and jumping like lot of
school boys. The place being but sparsely
inhabited, they were not molestsd. Last
night, however, terrific wind and rain
storm passed over the heights, and this morn
ing found the ground suewn with the lifeless
bodies OF scores OF the little creatures. Under
the bushes on the open plain and 10 the high
grass they lay, singly and in groups OF three
and tour, closely huddled up together,
dreuched and cold, with the lite literally
crushed cut OF them. Many visited the spot
this morning and can vouch tor this story.
