Assessing Mining Stock.

The assessments levied by the
Nevada Comstock Mining Compa-
MES during 1889, foot up a total oil
81 1881 $50. The bullion product OF
the lode exceeds by nearly "a, 600,
GOO the total sum of assessments
levied. It is reported that the Mon
tana legislature will pass an act
providing for the levying assess
ments for operating mines in that
state. The members Of the New
York Consolidated Stock Exchange
will also apply to the Legislature Of
that state for change in the law
that will enable two-thirds or three
fourths of the stockholders of any
incorporated mining company to
levy assessments on mining stock.
This is move in the right direc-
ton. If there had been a provision
in the New York mining incorpora-
ton law authorizing the levying of
assessments on mining stock, many
meritorious mining properties stu
ated in Idaho but managed by New
York incorporated companies, and
which have been lying idle for sew
eral years, would now in all proba-
bility be in active operation and
paying propositions. There is no
other way in which incorporated
mining companies can carry on
successfully the business of mining.
Had it not been for the system of
levying assessments on mining
shares, the great bonanzas of the eel
ebrated Comstock lode, which have
added millions to the world wealth,
would never have been heard of.

IT was reported the first of the
week that several large teams would
leave Clayton on the 18th inst. for
Ketchum loaded with bullion from
the Clayton smelter, intending to
return to Clayton loaded with hay
and feed, as those commodities are
very scarce and high at that place.
But owing to the severe snow storm
that began Wednesday afternoon
and continued undated all day
Thursday, it is very doubtful if they
can get through, even if they started.

SAM ALLEN came in from the
Parker mine last Tuesday, where
he had been removing the heavy
weight of snow from the roofs of
the buildings connected with the
mine. While in town Sam philo-
sophically remarked that "the great
abundance of snow may be God

particular use to the miner; that
one good mine in full working oper-
alton, uninterrupted by deep SHOWS

How the Notorious Ex-Mayor Was Killed
at Montgomery, Ala.

at montgomery, Ala'
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. s.-Ex-
Mayor Cottrell, of Key West, who, a
few weeks ago terrorized the Florida
Federal officials and escaped to Ala
bama, was shot and instantly killed
at II o'clock Thursday morning by
Chief of Police Gerald, of this city.
Cottrell was drunk Wednesday, and was
arrested by the police. He insulted the
chief, and challenged him to fight a
duel. The chief, in consequence of the
threats of Cottrell, had armed himself
with a double-barreled shotgun, and
was sitting outside of his Office when
Cottrell drove up in cab. After few
words had been exchanged both men
began firing, with the result eiyen
above.
Chief Gerald, soon after the shooting,
entered his Office. and passing out the
rear door, got in a buggy and WAS driven
to the sheriff's office, where he gave him
self up,
Cottrell was from one Of the
best families in Alabama, and when
sober was regarded as an excellent citi-
zen, but when under the influence Of
drink was reckless and desperate He
was married eight months ago to a
daughter Of Congressman Henderson, Of
North Carolina
Capt. A. Gerald, his slayer, is one Of
the best known men in this city, where
he has practically spent all his life He
has been CHIEF Of police Of Montgomery
for the past ten on twelve years

Nnat lLs NhshlhBtoh NbFfes1uhueAb says
About the SENATE and House.
BALTIMORE, Nov S.-A special to The
American from Washington says:
The latest returns indicate that after
March next the senate will be danger
ously near a tie. The big Republican
majority of IA in the upper branch oi
congress may almost totally disappear,
and with the aid of such senators as
Plumb, Pettigrew and Paddock the
Democrats would be able to control tariff
legislation.
The senate now stands AZ Republicans
70 81 Democrats. The new states of
Idaho and Wyoming viii increase this
majority to IA when congress meets
again in December. To overcome this
majority it would be necessary for the
Democrats to gain control OF the legisla-
ture in seven of the states which elect
senators in 1891. This result is almost
accomplished. According to present re-
turns, the Republicans have lost the
legislatures of New York, Wisconsin,
Colorado Illinois and Kansas, and pos
sibly New Hampshire states.
This would leave a Republican major
ity of only in the senate after March 4,
next. The Democratic legislature Of
Wisconsin will, it is stated here, redis-
trict the state so that the legislature Will
elect q Democratic successor to Senator
SAWYER. The successor to Senator In
gals viii represent the Farmers AL
liance, and it may be assumed will vote
with the Democrats upon all economic
questions

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. S.-Governor
Humphrey has signed the pardon of
William Baldwin, Of Atchison, Kan,
who was convicted Jan. H. 1886, of
murder in the first degree and sentenced
TO be hanged Since that time he has
been an inmate of the state prison at
Leavenworth, his death warrant never
having been signed by the governor.
The crime of which Baldwin was con-
victed was the murder OF his sister
His father, who was nearly million
aire, died and left his fortune to his
widow, son and daughter. Young Bald
win was dissatisfied with his share of
the estate, and short time afterward
his sister died from the effects of chloro-
form under peculiar circumstances.
Her brother was arrested, charged with
administering the fatal drug, and con-
victed on purely circumstantial evil
dence,
The state board Of pardons has been
investigating Baldwin's case for the
that the governor grant him an uncon-
ditional pardon. As the governor was
signing Baldwin's pardon he received a
telegram announcing the death Of Bald
wins young son. The technicalities of
the pardon will be hastened so that the
father may attend the funeral, Bald
wins wife has been very faithful to him
from the first, and has paid him regular
visits at the prison. Neither she nor his
mother has ever believed in his guilt.

The gentlemen were British subjects
and members Of the British parliament,
and had every right to speak in this
country. The Canadian government
had received no information from the
imperial authorities regarding their ar-
rest should they visit Canada, and Sir
John thought it TO be in the highest de-

be made by the home government to
