PACIFIC ROAD MATTERS.
Hearing Was Resumed by the Senate Com
 ,,ittee


 Washington, Feb. 1.-The senate committe on Pacific roads to-day re- sumed its hearings on Pacific railroad matters. r. B. Thurber of New York, representing the national board of trade, made an argument in opposition to government ownership of the roads and in favor of adjusting the govern ment debt on the best terms praetica- ble.
 C. P. Huntingdon, president of the Southern Pacific, was examined at length by Senator Morgan in an en- deavor to show that the consolidation of the Southern Pacific and Central Pa cfic under one management placed the people of the Pacific coast at the mercy of the combination in regard to trans portation rates, but MT. Huntingdon de- nied that the consolidation would cre- ate monopoly of the Pacific coast busi- ness.
 Senator Morgan produced copy of the memorial adopted at a recent pub llS IIiGGll1lS III odh 1IduSiSSO III oPPO- sition to the extension of the govern ment debt of the Pacific roads. This memorial was largely made up of alleg- ations and charges against Messrs. Huntingdon, Stanford, Crocker and Hopkins in connection with the Con tract and Finance company, which built the Ceitral Pacific road. All the charges and allegations of fraud were denied by MT. Huntingdon. The com mittee adjourned until tomorrow.

A GREAT BATTLE COMING.

All the signs of the political zodiac
unquestionably demonstrate that the
gold interests will make a desperate
struggle during the next Presidential
campaign to keep this country still
within their clutches, says the Sacra-
mento Bee. Their first object will be
either to have the old parties denounce
free silver; or, failing in that, put
forth national platforms with reversi-
BILE planks--planks that can be turn
ed to preach the gold doctrines.
in gold centers, and twist
ed to crusade in behalf OF silver
in those states where free coinage is
popular. Already they have succeed
ed to a certain extent in smotherlng
the voice of the people in some states
OF the Middle West by having the
platforms OF the Republican State
conventions proclaim for gold, when
it is a we'll known fact that the mass
es of the people Of those States, rep
resented in all parties. are jealous
believers in tho free coinage OF sill
yer.
There can be no doubt that the gold
bugs, their allies, organs, mercenarIes
and political auxilaries, propose to
make a stand at the fall election to
smother cause of silver, il 1t can pos
sibly be done. They will stop to any
preliminary act of political chicanery,
treachery or bribery, to attain their
ends; nor is it to be expected that
party fealty, or loyalty to any princi-
pie, will be permitted to stand in the
way, if it's sacrifice will aid in the
slightest toward the success of the
gold gamblers and their cohorts. 1t
is combination of almost fabulous
wealth, coupled with an INSCRIPTIONS
daring, that will move every obstacle
from it's path il it possibly can, that
the people are called upon to meet
and endeavor to vanquish.

The Missing Bank Clerk.

Last Fridays Carson Appeal in
speaking of Harry Brown, the missing
clerk of the Bullion Bank, says:
The main topic on the streets yes
terday was tho flight Of Harry Brown
toward Mexico. It is pretty certain
he is in Arizona. One theory is that
$25O,O0O was placed to his credit in
a San Francisco bank by parties who
desired to conceal it under his name
and learning that the money had a
crooked history he levanted with it
Also that his shortage with the bank
was 49, 900, but it was made good by
man who had an interest in his alb
sence from Carson. The bank, how
ever, will lose nothing by the affair.
His mother left him legacp of SO,
600 and his grandmother $1,000, and
with this money he pursued a career
of reckless extravaganza. 49,. ...
He was perfectly cold-blooded and
calculating and looked out only for
the main chance, not caring who he
turned down. He was lucky, both at
picking winners and holding stiff
poker hands, and reckless to a degree.
His expenditures were very large and
he invested money in anything that
pleased his fancy. At this rapid pace
the end could not be far off and he
simply struck the limit of his string,
1t is believed by everybody that
there is something yet to come from
behind the curtain in bank affairs and
Browns fight to the Mexican bound
ary line is due to his knowledge of the
affairs that will in time be made pub
lie and result in more sensations OF the
most sensational character. The city
seems now to be ON the brink OF a
powder magazine Of scandal and
everybody is on the lookout for the
explosion. The skipping out of any
body IN Carson now would create no
surprise. ..

MINERAL OUTPUTS.

The outlook of mineral wealth in Col
orado, for 1895, is far beyond high wa
ter mark IN Arizona, but it is probable
that when the returns are all in it will
be found that this territory is crowding
on close to the heels of Utah, which
heretofore has distanced all of her terri
torial con- petitors. The mineral output
OF Colorado for 1895 is as follows:
Gold, 81, 34O, 493; silver s14, 259, O49;
lead 1865, Ia; copper 1877, 1872. Total,
s35. 49,, $50. For 1894: Gold, s11.235.-

copper s767, 400. Total, s29,993, 29O.
