Will he Short on Brick.

II New York, on the lst, the meeting
IF brick makers was the largest and
most important yet held. Manufacture
crs representing an output of
ao,e9 900 bricks were admitted
to the association. The question
discussed was the withdrawal of all
supplies Of brick To the city, and
vicinity, including even those under
contract. These contracts were made
by eight manufacturers, and call for the
delivery of about 20,0oo,0o0 bricks per
month. Six of these manufacturers
agreed To withdraw, and the association
decided on taking the step if the other
manufacturers under contract would
agree to it. 1t is therefore expected
that the entire supply of bricks, as far
as the members of the association are
concerned, will now stop.

GRAND JURY REPORT

To the Honorable T. H. Wells Judos
OF the District Court Of the State of Ne.
vada.
We the Grand Jury impaneled and
assigned to duty on the 9th day of No.
vember, A. D. 1889, having investigated
all cases submitted and brought to our
notice by the District Attorney and
others, together with having a partial
examination Of the books of the yarious
county officers, etc, now respectfully
beg to present our final report.
We have found five indictments: One
for Rape; two for Grand Larceny: two
for murder; one for Assault, and one
for breaking Jail. 1.-THE two charged
with murder were found under one in.
dictment as was also the two charged
with grand larceny.-Ed.l
We have had another case of assault
with deadly weapon brought before us,
in which We think the Sheriff or his
Deputy neglected their duty in not ar.
resting the offending parties and bring.
ing them before the Justice Of the Peace
for trial. n
We think the Board of County Com.
missioners should employ an expert
book'keeper for the purpose Of examin.
ing the books of the County
officers, as thorough examination of
the same can not be given in the time
the Grand Jury has for that purpose.
We very frequently have exhibitions
Of drunken Indians on the public streets
of Phoebe, and this state of affairs has
been going Oh for several years, yet there
has not been any persons arrested
charged with selling liquor to the Indi-
ans. We think if the proper officers
were to exercise little care and strate.
gy, they would not have much trouble
in finding the guilty parties and bringing
them to justice.
