SAN FRANCIsCO'S BILLIARD
MATCH.
Some Light as 20 Why q Decision
Was Not Given Saturday Night.
[sPEoIAL TO THE sENTINEL.

80 WV
ESPECIAL TO rHE sEsTINEL.l
SAN Francisco, March 2.-The Chron-
icle published an article this morn
ing concerning the recent billiard
match between Morris of this city, and
McKenna OF Detroit, Mich, which throws
light on Referee Ssylor's refusal TO render
O decision on Saturday night last, when
the match was concluded. The article In
part says that definite changes of crooked
ness in the match have come to the ears Of
Ben Saylor, and il ia the necessity OF sift-
ing these that has delayed a decision. Ben
Saylor said to a Chronicle reporter that
McKenns, after his arrival here, proposed
to him to play q CROOKED" match. Nc
Kenna represented that by practicing a lit
tie in private he could easily obtain
hackers. Saylor declined to entertain the
idea. This incident REQUIRED to the referee,
when he began to suspect that there was a
screw loose about the match. "I have
been trying very hard" continued Mr..
Saylnr, "to get some conclusive evidence
from those directly interes. ted, that there
has been no dishonest trick. Morris offered
to swear that the stakes really remained in
Sam Whitehead's hands, instead, as has
been suspected. OF being drawn out and
thrown into the pools. His oath, however,
was dependent upon that of Sam White
head, and Whitehead declines to-day to
swear to such an assertion. Betting is
said to have been very skillfully manipu-
lated by means of the game, and the
mount depending on the decision Of the
referee Is vsriously estimated at from
So, 1000 to 2 $1,000. Ben saylor's decision
will probably be given to-day, and it is not
impossible that something exciting may
occur. Lou Morris is said to have threat.
ened to shoot the referee If the pools are
declared off. He denies the threat. but
owns that on the last night Of the match
he went to the table with a revolver in his
pocket for the special reason"
6P. M.-Ben Ssylor, the referee in the
McKenna-Mo billiard match, which
was concluded at Plstt's Hall last Satur-
day night, gave his decision to-day, award
ing the match to Morris, and declaring all
bets and pools off.

Politics I'm Lander.

The Battle Mountain Central Nevadan
Of Thursday says of politics in Austin:
County politics are being discussed some
what already, and II is said that the Re-
publican slate is almost filled out. We
we're unable to procure the names of the
supposed candidates, but know that the
slate will not be broken in the coming
convention. 1t is thought that the grand
old party will be victorious in the main
fight, but most of the knowing ones con-
cede the offices of District Attorney and
County Clerk to the Democracy if run for
by the present incumbents. For State Of
iicers j. II. Kinkead is favorably spoken OF
by the Republicans for Governor, and
Powning seems to be the favorite for
United States Senator.

Judge Rives' Charge to that Body
Monday Afternoon.

Judge Rives' Charge TO that Body
Monday Afternoon.
Mr.. Foreman and Gentlemen of the
Grand Jury: Many Of you are unfamiliar
with the duties OF Grand Jurors, and ]
therefore state that your first duty will be
to investigate and pass upon the cases Of
such persons accused Of crime as may be
in custody. Next, you will address your
labors to such other criminal cases as may
be called to your notice by the District
Attorney, and to complaints of that nature
which any OF your number, or any citizen,
may call TO your attention.
Upon my return to this county from
Lincoln county, about the first OF this
mouth, l found this community quite
stirredalp as to our county affairs. As u
citizen circulating among other citizens, /
found that charges and counter charges
were being freely made respecting these
matters, which are of deep interest TO
every taxpayer and resident in the county.
l have waited for some weeks to satisfy
myself, il possible, concerning them. and
while / refrain from the expression OF any
opinion AZ to the merits of the rumors
which have come to my ears. yet l feel 1T
my duty TO charge you particularly to
look into and particularly investigate all
accounts Of present and past officers CO.
curing within thre6years in this county.
In choosing you l have endeavored, as
far as / could, to select members whom l
believe have either made or defended these
various charges. At least, / have endeav-
ored to have the accusers and accused rep
resented among you, in order to a full and
fair probing of these affairs, and to the end
that the merits. both pro aud con, might
he fully laid before you. While I have &C.
lected o few partisans OF the respective in
terests involved | have tried to, and feel
confident / have also secured, a large ma
jority among you, who, 80 far as my
knowledge and inquiry enables me to
Judge, are free from either interest or pre-
judice, except to act cautiously and to do
your whole duty to the people. / feel
every assurance and confidence that if
wrong or ~irregularity has occurred that
you will use every endeayor to ascertain 1T,
and that you will fearlessly present it.
In this connection I would also state
that 1 will at all times BIO ready and glad
to aid you in your researches, and that
you are q. liberty to call upon the attor-
neys and other officers and members OF the
court for either advice or information.
In conclusion, / ask your earliest pos
sible action on the criminal cases Of those
persons now in confinement. to be at once
reported to the Court, and as to the in
v~estigation of comfy affairs you may use
your convenience. as l will hold the court
open. if necessary, in this county until
the LIST OF June, and l particularly ask
your patient, impartial aud exhaustive in
quiry as TO those matters. No indictment
or presentment should be made by you,
except in cases where, in your Judgment,
the evidence presented before you would
be followed by a conviction by a trial jury.

MALICIOUS.

If the prison commissioners would hearken to the voice of the people oi Arizona, they would appoint J. H Behan to the position of prison super intendent. But the Epitaph is of the opinion that MT. Behan will fail to re ceive the appointment. It takes a sack to reach a position since the great reform party came into power.- Tombstone Epitaph.
 The insinuating slur cast in the above hbelous and malicious item, agalnst the Board of Prison Commis. Sioners, is groundless, as ideas elimin- ating from a narrow-minded partizan source, generally are. Mir. A. G. Hub bard, Hons. C.. H. Stevens and P. s. Brady, the gentlemen who now com pose the Board,- are all old time Arizo- nians, whose characters for integrity and honesty have never before been questioned, and to do so at this time, without cause or foundation, is cer- tainly impolitic and ungenerous.
 As to the successor of the position that Capt. Ingalls, now so competently fills, we are sure that the Board will, at the proper time, appoint a person who will be credit to themselves and honor to the territory.

(To De conti;natsd.)
Coionize our Lands.

It is the opinion of the Gazette that the proper way to rapidly and success
 fully to settle up the Salt and Gila val
 leys is to colonize them. This form ot settlement is the secret of the great success in populating the vacant lands in Los Angeles county, and the same course is being pursued in San Diego and Fresno counties. Those counties had one advantage over this country and that was the large tracts of land under one ownership which was readi- ly controlled for subdivision and sale. This defect can be overcome if the peo- pie having land for sale will form an association and pool their various tracts so that an agent can subdivide and sell. Four sections lying contiguous will form the nucleus for nice settlement and subdivided into 40 acre tracts will form GA farms. There are several agents now in California looking for places on which to plant colonies of 40 families and upwards. One IS a temperance colony, all Canadians, who desire to go into the raisin culture. There are two tracts of land within our knowledge just suitable for such an enterprise. One is west of Black canyon road and the other east, both under the Grand canal. Many of the present settlers desire to sell all or a portion of their holdings. It only remains for some organizer to meet the owners and agree upon basis of operations when they can safely reach out for the settlers.
 This land is as good grape land as lies out of doors either here or in Cali fornia The Gazette has repeatedly told the story of the success of grape culture in this valley and in this con nection is only necessary to call the ai tention to plan by which the busi
 ness may be successfully entered upon. It does not see any method so feasible for introducing both population and this surely enriching industry as that above pointed out. The question is, who among the many real estate agents of Phenix has the energy to inaugurate the movement.-Phenix Gazette.
