On Wednesday the proprietors OF the
Genoa Courier received notice that the
office would be attacked by mob from
the eastern part of the county, and
armed men We're at once put on guard
to watch it. At the first sound OF tlI1nS
the town of Genoa will turn out in de-
Tense. Constable Gray states, says the
Carson Appeal, that only about ten
men in the mob were masked and the
rest Were recognized. The anti-reward
petition is signed by over 100 names,
mostly forei gners. The signing of the
anti-reward petition disqualif1es those
who signed from sitting as jurors, IL
the case is tried. A petition came IN
from East Fork calling for q reward
signed by rs names. Some who signed
the anti-reWard petition say they were
compelled to.
The Kings Daughters, an organlza-
ton which embraces some of the most
popular and kind-hearted ladies IN
Carson, are working hard to provide
a happy Christmas for the poor ana
deserving of Carson.
The lynching of Uber and the effort
made to bring the participants to
Justice is exciting a great deal OF i'll
feeling throughout Nevada, more
especially in Genoa, Carson and neigh
mans attorney, publishes long letter
in the Carson Appeal, giving from his
standpoint all the facts that led up TO
the shooting of Anderson by Uber, and
condemning the lynchers in unmeasur-
ed terms He says, among other
things: "All the testimony elected is
in writing, and L defy any judge,
lawyer, or unprecedented man possessed
of ordinary intelligence to say that
Il was
murder in the first degree, and L now
claim that is the reason why he was
lynched He was on the broad OF his
back when he shot, knocked there by
his assailant, and was being jumped
upon. There was no time for dellpera-
ton. generalization, nor could there be
any exhibition of an abandoned heart
in the act. Thousands upon thousands
have been acquitted who killed With
less provocation. [ say all this on the
testimony taken by the prosecution,
without cross examination. The pre-
tense is made that Anderson simply
waived Uber to one side, and that the
latter fell, and that Anderson extend
ed his hand to help him up, when
Uber shot This is a lie and the testl-
mony shows it to be lie. Uber had
been warned by letters to leave town,
and his partner had left under the
warming. 1t is said that Anderson S
name is signed to one of the letters.
But that is speculative only at present.
The fact is that Anderson showed Uber
against a billiard table, which prevent
ed him from falling; that he followed
it right up and showed him against the
wall, and that Uber staggered and fell
over q. chair which also fell, and that
Anderson kicked the chair away and
was falling with his right hand extend
ed towards Ubers throat, right over
Uber, when he was shot, and the
doctors testimony with reference to
the course of the bullet fully proves
the fact, and the position of the men.

New York, Dec. 2O.-After a spasmodic
effort to continue the rise of Saturday
today's stock market fell back into a de-
clane and failed TO recuperate The ag-
gresslNe strength of some of the special
ues at the opening served to sustain that
market Tor time and to give it an aD-
pearance of strength. but realizing sales
IN the general list went hand in hand with
the manipulation for a rise in SpecialtieS.
and even the stocks which had shown
wide gains lost practically all after the
large operators had taken their profit in
the general list.
COALERs STRONG.
The coalers We're strong as a group
on account of the growing belief in an
agreement to restrict production and to
keep up prices. They We're also helped
by the cold weather and the consequent
increased demand for the product.
Union Pacific enjoyed a period of
strength in the late dealings, but after
wards reacted.
CONDITION OF MONEY.
The contradiction of Saturday morning.
report of Withdrawals of gold from the
Bank of England for shipment to New
York had much to do with the teImina-
ton of the rally which set in Saturday.
The conditions in the money market con-
tnued to dominate the situation in the
stock market. and the stiffening of the
rates for call loans to 4d5 per cent in the
late trading today checked the hopes of
those spectators who thought they saw
by imports of specie.
OUR TRADE BALANCE.
No doubt is felt that the large trade
balance in our favor is a sufficient Sc
curity against any real stringency in
money at New York But it is not be
neved that per cent rate Tor call
money will result in a movement of specie
In view of the existing high rate for
money in London and in the European
countries.
NO EASIER MONEY.
There is not much prospect of easier
money until after the first of the year.
and until that time speculative activity
is not likely.
The bond market was not as active as
of late, but prices held firm. with the eX-
ception of some of the speculative bonds.

FREEDMAN ON YOUNG.
His Attack Upon the President of
the League Unwarranted.

President Freedman, IL correctly re-
ported, has made an unwairanred attacK
upon President Nick Young. The New
York magnate seems to have desire TO
take q fall out with every person con-
necteG with the National League.
President Young has been connected with
baseball in IN official CAPACITY for more
than quarter OF a century. In all that
time there has not been a single woid said
by any body against Kim nor his actions. In
fact, he has, time after time, saved the
league from disruption and has done more
than dozen men to keep baseball honest
and clean.
wheuthe uiagnates oelebratedMr Young's
tw eni y-fifth anniversary as League Of
ficial by presenting to him beautiful
silver service, they gathered around him
like members OF one family and paid him
homage. There was not one among them
who held aloof and the expressions uf
pleasure and delight in thus honoring their
president were earnest aud sincere. Nearly
everyone OF them had been associated with
Mr.. Young for many years and they knew
bis sterling qualities and his integrity.
President Freedman has been connected
with ba seball about two years. During tha {
time he has antagoniZed players and mag
mates alike. especially the latter. He be
gan by attaching President Byrnc and has
kept that uD ever since. Hehas made him
self dislikcd by Others. including Brush
of Cincinuati, the Robisons OF Cleveland,
Won der Abe Of st. Louis, and Others.
He has been associated with the Rcston,
Pittsburc and Philadelphia magnntes sim
ply in an offensive and defensive business
arrangement. which was known as the
Pig 4" and later, with Chicago's assist
auce, rs the big 3" This attack on
Mr.. Young Will doubtlessly act as the
last straw, and, when the next League
nieeting takes place, Mr. Freedman viii,
figuratively speaking, find himself stranded,
like Robinson Crusoe, without friends and
without j habitation.
President Young has been placed On a
pedestal of vencration by magnatcs. man
ayers, pla yers and baseball lovers at
ldlge: he figures in the same light DIS the
President OF the United States does to the
indians In the far West the gCcd father at
Washington ana the attack made by Freed
man will hurt the New York president more
than ANYTHING else tn at he has done, tfthat
be possible, Willie IL will place Mr.. Young a
great deal further beyond his reach.
