And 1t Sounds Fam llar-An Attorney
From Chicago i. Al, o a witness
in HE Bribery Case.

PROSECUTOR Whittemore reopeued thu
Morris bribery case this morning In
the criminal court by making a stste.
mont for the government to the Jury in
which he said that the State expected
to show and prove In the course OF the
trial every allegation set out In the in.
dictment-that the defendant agreed
to accept bride from Martin Hayken,
agent Tor the furniture firm OF A. ii.
Andrews & Co., in return for which
MOTIFS was to use his Influence and his
vote to give the c5unty's furniture con-
tract 10 the firm. 1t was proposed to
show that a written agreement to this
effect was made out and signed be-
tween these two men. Morris, said
the attorney, had entered three pleas
to the Indictment, one OF not guilty,
another OF previous acquittaI and
third OF having once been in
Jeopardy. II was also the purpose TO
show that Morris went to Chicago and
"hxed up a defense" with Hayken By
making with him purported deal for
mining stock which could be sh avn as
an explanation for the receipt OF the
bribe money In cass such a showing
became necessary through the trans
action leaking out. Mr.. Whit.emore
went over tue ground thoroughly and

business up TO its final contamination.

The spr,nx valley Mines.

Several parties who have returned
from the new mining district near
Spring Valley, state. that while there
is nothing there to justify the present
excitement the indications for large
and valuable deposits are promising.
The claim located by Art Millett, Hy
Rice and Nelson Millett is the only one
which shows any value. The 30-foot
ore chute OF this location averages
fairly in silver, but under the present
development the average OF the bal
ance of the ledge is very low grade,
with the progress Of development work
the other large lodges in the vicinity
may and probably will prove valuable

interested in the new and.-Pioche

A Chicago dispatch OF the Jan. oath
says: The spectacle Of a cab being
driven at a furious pace and dragging
behind it a woman whose cries for help
could be heard for a block created great
excitement last evening at Rush and
Indiana streets. The driver was urg-
ing his horse forward with whip and
voice. and the woman as she desper-
ately clung to the rear axle, implored
the bystanders For Gods sake TO stop
that horsel"
The cab was stopped and the party
taken to the police station. The stories
told at the police station revealed the
fac. that the woman was Mrs. Peter
Welcome, who had been employed as
a chorus singer at several OF the down
town theatres, and that the desperate
attempt which she made to stop the
cab was due to the fact that the vehicle
contained her husband. from whom
she separated four months ago, and
her four-year-old boy Claude. whom
she charged the man with trying to abb
duet.

CARSON CRY, Jan. 10. 1896.
To Editor Of Call.-SR: The article
in your issue Of the 18th inst, page s,
4" Sadler's Odd Mistake" does a great
injustice to Lieutenant Governor Sad
Ter, who is as regretful Of the illness
and sufferings Of Governor Jones as any
other person in the State. Lieutenant
Governor Sadler knew nothing Of the
flag being half masted, as he was not
in Carson at the time, neither did he
appoint a private secretary, and know
that no telegram ever reached my
hands while in San Francisco from
him asking or demanding any keys
whatever, and this last was his perfect
right to do had it been required.
The many rumor floating around
are entirely without foundation, and
inHict an injury almost irreparable on
the reputation Of the Lieutenant Gov
ernor OF our State. Respectfully,
w. T. HASFoRD,
Private Secretary OF the Governor.

says that many Of the Cripple Creek
mines are wonderful. The ore is smelt-
ed. but the owners OF the mines are
not pushing work rapidly. There are
about 5000 people there. 5000 OF
whom are miners. There are many
men unable to get work and they walk
the streets until they fall almost ex-
hausted. Beds Of poor character COM
mand 81 so per night and everything
else in proportion. The deaths from
pneumonia alone are from IL to Is per
day. His advice is not to go there.
At Butte there are about 5000 men
employed and ore enough in sight to

PREscoTT, Ariz., Jan. 24.-James p.
Boone, who is wanted in Esmeralda
county, Nevada, to answer to the
charge OF murder for the killing Of An
tone Bacoch on November 10th, 1895,
and for whom there are rewards ag-
gregating $3.50, was arrested yesterday
by Sheriff Ruffner OF Yavapai county.
Ruffner left on the afternoon train for
Nevada to deliver him 10 the Sheriff
Of the above county.
Boone had been employed for about
a month as q teamster, freighting be-
tween the Bowen & Ridenour min
and Peach Springs, on the Atlantic *
Pacific railroad. He always carried a
loaded Winchester on the wagon con-
venient to him, and but for a ruse
adopted by the Sheriff to get him away
from the wagon, be would no doubt
have made a fight. As il was, he vas
very reluctant about obeying the order
of the Sheriff to throw up his hands.
He is a very determined and desperate
looking man.
