Colorado Springs. Col. Feb. 2.-No call was held on the Colorado Springs Mining exchange. business being sus- pended for day to allow the clearing house to catch up with it's work. Not withstanding the employment of all the extra men obtainable for this kind of work. and all night work, the enormous sales on the exchange have thrown the clearinghouse two days behind.
 The volume of business now being transacted here is unprecedented. Excitement runs high.
 The sales each day this week have amounted to about 2.OO0, ,0O0 shares.
 Late advices from the Isabella prop erty fully confirm all of the reports sent out concerning the marvellous richness of the ore.

THE RHYNELAND ASHORE.
The Steamer Got Out of Her Course During . Heavy Snow storm and Ran
 on tho Beach.

Philadelphia, Feb. 2.-The steamer Rhynelad, from Liverpool for Phila- delphia, went ashore Tuesday night four miles north of Fenwick's Island life-saving station. The vessel seems to be lying in an easy position. The tug North America is close by the big steamer, ready to render assist ance. The Rhyneland struck the beach during the prevalence of heavy snow storm, which, it is thought, pre- vented her captain from seeing the Fenwick's Island light.
 Fenwick's Island light is about 25 miles below the Delaware breakwater. so that the Rhyneland. when she grounded, was several miles out of her course.

Omaha. Neb.. Feb. 2.-Omaha city business may soon have to be trans acted from the jail unless a solution is found for the tangled web of litiga- tion and charges of crookedness now being investigated. Some time ago Police Judge Gordon sentenced Capt. Her. of the police force, to jail for contempt and the case is now pending on appeal. He threatens to order the arrest of City Attorney Cornell un- less papers in the hands of the city attorney which the judge asserts be- long to police court records, are re- turned. The city council is debating the question of bringing impeach- ment charges against Police Judge Gordon, and in all probability will do so unless the legislature can be in- duced to legislate him out of office.
 A SCHOOL BOOK SCANDAL.
 The board of education is investi- gating charges of corruption made in connection with the American Book Co.'s contract for furnishing geogra- phies to the public schools. and the city council is also laboring with charges made by the city engineer that ring within that body is run ming the city affairs for its own politi- cal and pecuniary benefit.
 X clash between Judge Scott and the excise board is likely to land that body in jail for contempt of court for refusing to comply in the courts or der. Impeachment charges against Judge Scott have been filed with the legislature. and. finally. the quo war ranto proceedings instituted by ex- Mayor Broatch to oust Mayor Moores are still pending in the supreme court.

St. Louis, Feb. 2.-Incidental to it's inquiry into the conduct of the of flee of the excise commissioner the "Lexow" committee are delving into the composition of the Valley Liquor Co.,. which appears to be made up of prominent office holders, under the direction of Louis C. Nelson. brother in-law of Gov. Stephens. There seems to be an under-current of belief that the Valley Liquor Co. and the excise commissioners office are in some way related. and the efforts of the "Lexow" committee appear to be directed to es- tablishing the connection, if it really exists.
