Beef Cattle Going Up.

A Churchill county cattleman in
forms the Virginia Chronicle that a
band of beef cattle, not in first class
condition, sold in Reno last week for
ST. head, and sales have recently
been made in Paradise Valley at $50
AHEAD. The prices last year ranged
from $40 to $14 per head. The ad-
vance, is of course, due to the scarcity
of cattle caused by the heavy percent
age of loss on the range last Winter

For three months past, says the
Phoebe Record, strange man has
lived in tunnel or dHgout east side
OF limestone mountain over the head
of Meadow Valley street, within view
of the Bullionville road. He is rarely
seen, but is said to be tall and heavily
bearded. The dirt from his excava-
ton is thrown up in the form of a
barricade at the entrance to the place
where he has double door with two
small windows or peep holes. When
first noticed some time ago he was
observed bathing or nursing one of
his legs as though wounded. HIS
actions are decided suspicious. Who
and what is he !? Is he wanted any
where ?

Copper.
where

Copper is quoted at present in the
New York market at 1914 and 1871
cents per pound. The advance is not
caused by corner or syndicate. but
by the increasing requirments of con-
sumption. Copper mines ought to be
worth something with copper at 1917
cents, and there are a number of mines
in White Pine county that will doubt
less prove bonanza to their owners
some time in the near future.

Supreme Court Decision

On MARCH, It'll, 1889, L. w. Alexan-
der sued the Cliff Mining Company in
Humboldt comfy, and attached its
property, and in due course of time it
was sold by the Sheriff. Before the
sale of the property, L. Wash, who had
been working for the mining company,
filed and served his notices OF PREFER
ed claim under the Act of the Legislt-
ture to protect the wages of labor.
The Sheriff paid no attention to the
notice, and Walsh went into court
with the matter. The Supreme Court
has just decided that the Sheriff must
pay tn Walsh his preferred claim.
The opinion is by Murphy, J., Haw-
lev, G. j., concurs, Belknap, dissenting

wri,s of Prohibition Getting Commo,

The Reno Journal says: A writ OF
prohibition has been petitioned for in
the Supreme Court to prevent Judge
Bigelow from trying the Truckee wa
ter suit which was commenced in his
court at Reno. The writ was applied
for upon the ground that the water law
is unconstitutional, it having been so
decided by Judge Fitzgerald at VIM
nemucca. The case will be heard in
the Supreme Court this week, and
the decision will not only settle the
question as TO fhe continuance OF the
Truckee suit, but will also decide the
correctness or otherwise of the deci-
sion in the Humboldt case, without
appeal to the Supreme Conrt.

mill. 1t is small, compact, smooth
working piece of machinery, and
quite novelty with people who have
only seen the stamp mills. The prin
ciple is somewhat similar TO the ar
astra, but, OF course, much more

gleston, who is In charge OF the mill,
explained to the News man its modus
operandi, aud our verdict of it as
a neat and smooth working piece OF

this article. Whether it is the equal
or superior Of the stamp mill we shall
be better able to judge after a clean
up is made.

Labor cost in one ton OF steel rails

assembled in the steel rail works and are
ready to be subjected to the proper
manipulations for the production of
standard steel rails-should Dee less per
tom relatively ia this country than On
Great Britain, or on the Continent, be-
cause American producers Of standard
steel rails dispense with at least one eX-
pensiyc process still adhered 90 by the
foreign producer; and furthermore, our
materials, ore. etc., are purer than those
used in most other places; so the guam
tty OF ore, for instance required for the
production OF ton Of standard steel
rails is less in this country than in
other places, and Of course the labor re-

New YoRK. December 15-R- G. Dun i
Co.'S weekly review Of trade says that the
business outlook is hopeful, but on account
OF past disturbances continued uncertainty
Is felt In a reduced volume of business
throughout the country. which, however. is
slightly larger than a year ago. The in
crease until recently maintained does not
appear during the past week. The south re-
ports fair business despite the continued de-
cline in cotton. The supply of money is ample
for the necessaries at New Orleans. but at other
points money Is tight, though banks help
their customers as far as possible, but in
legitimate business only. At the west cold
weather has helped the trade. The general
business in the west Is in a healthy condition
and fairly active.
Chicago's business continues much larger
than last year, being but little affected by
the eastern troubles. Business is also good
at Kansas City and St Louis. The iron il
dustry is In better condition than a week
ago, and wooden manufacture is decidedly
better. Their is wait-lg market for knit
goods and a shrinking demand for dress
goods The cotton manufacture Is less salts
factory and some works have suspended
production. The speculative markets have
not been very active, but wheat has risen II
and corn 255 and oats 4. Pork is unchanged
and cotton sixteenth lower. The rlss in
breadstuff is not sustained. Tin has risen
Il, but copper is of uncertain price. The
most significant fact in the money situation
is the fact that very large portion of the
money was taken in gold by the seller of
bonds. presumably for withdrawal until sll-
yer legislation Is accomplished by congress.
The commercial troubles outside of the
money stringency has been caused by over
purchases in anticipation of great rise in
values. These purchasers have been disap-
pointed and find themselves embarrassed.

DUBLIE, December 13.-The struggle for

new phase in the morning and again Mr..

company.
When the opponents of Mr.. Parnen, who
succeeded In efecting an entrance to the
Office and in destroyin! all the leaders pre-
pared by Mr.. Leamy, who was appointed to
succeed Mr.. Bodkin, who was acting editor
during the absence of William O'Brien, took
their departure they left guard IN posses
sion with orders to resist any attempt of Mr..
Parneli or his friends TO enter the building.
In the morning Mr.. Parnell proceeded to
the Office and with the assistance of crowd
of his supporters forced open the doors and
took possession. The police witnessed the
affair, but did not interfere in any way.
After he had succeeded in recaptIring the
Office. Mr.. Parnell went to window and ad-
dressed the crowd outside.
To guard against any further attempt on
the part of Mr.. Parnell's opponents to re-
capture the Office, no one was allowed to en-
ter and the doors and windows were closely
bolted and barred.
Mr.. Parnel WAS accompanied by the staH
of editors he had appointed, and when the
Office was secured against intruders all con-
VerSation with outsiders was carried on
through q keyhole. When Mr.. Parnell made
the assault upon the Office he himself was
armed with a crowoar, which he used IN
forcing the front door.

TOPEKA, KAN, December 17.-Chsirman
Chase, of the farmers alliance executive
committee who was in the city, said:
81 am certain that neither John F. Willis
or Frank McGrath ever uttered the senti-
ments credited to them in this report. It Is
pure nonsense to say that they will be re-
quired to offer any explanations to the peo-
pie of Kansas for the course they took in
this matter. Had they done different than
they really did their apologies would have
been in order. Alliance men in Kansas are
decidedly in favor of the sub-treasury bill.
In fact, there is practically no opposition to
it in our party"
General John II. Rice took precisely the
same view of it as Mr.. Chase. This Hon.
W. S. McAllister," said he, was the agent
of the Associated Press at Ocala. While
there he asked for an assistant, and repre-
sentative of the Jacksonville Times Union
was assigned to the position. Now, Mr.. Nc
Allistel has conceived this very improbable
story, has caused his assistant to interview
him and then sent it out broadcast over the
country through the agency of the Associated
Press. The statement that the Kansas dele
CATION was charged with the mission to de-
feat the sub treasury measure is enough IN
Itself to brand the story as falsehood from
beginning to end"
