SEERIGHT ACQUITTED
The First Jury Trial Here in
Many Weeks
UutIedge and Seeright Fight Results
In q Broken Jaw for the Former
Acquittal for Latter.

On last Wednesday afternoon Judge
Tindsay's court was the scene of the
first Jury trial held in Tonopah in
MANY weeks. The occasion was the
prosecution OF f. ID. Seeright by W.
H. Rutledge, complaining witness,
who declares that Seeright assaulted
and beat him without cause.
The alteration occurred several
days preceding the trial and the battle
ground was the Royal Cafe and the
peighborhood Immediately adjacent
thereto. According to the state
ments of both men, Rutledge had
made report on certain properties
at Lone Mountain in which Seeright
was interested. Rutledge claims
that, as a result of this, Seeright fol-
lowed him from the cafe and assaulted
him in the street, while Seeright de-
clared that he merely inquired about
the report and then STRUCK in self
defense, because Rutledge attempted
to bit him. There were no witnesses
to the fight, but DR.. Garner testified
to the fact that Rutlege had suffered
the loosening Of several teeth and
the fracture Of jaw bone as result
Of the argument.
Prosecuting Attorney Richards
was assisted in behalf Of the state by
c. F. Reynolds. w. B. Pittman rep
resented the defendant, at whose re-
quest the jury trial was granted.
The jurors impaneiled were selected
from two venires. They were: w.

and after twenty minutes delibera-
ton, verdict for the defendant was
found The costs of the case will be
paid by the county.
Both parties to the action are in.
terested in properties at Lone Noun
tain, and Rutledge stated on the
stand that he is an engineering
expert.

The GOldtield STAGE.

The enormous growth in the travel
between Goldfeld and Tonopah has
necessitated an increase in the trans
portation facilities. W. f. Ramsey,
who operates the stage line to the
new camp, has consequently arranged
for the running of three stages each
week. These leave every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday mornings
from the Frisco Store, where the
stage compauy's Office is now located.

THE tPEssIMIsT.

ihere Is no rose on the broad bleak earth
worth the labor put forth to raise It.
NO scarlet mouth framed In dimpled mirth
worth the breath that It takes to praise 1t.
There is no song like the one that's heard
In the time OF lifes beginning;
No woman's love worth the empty word
That we waste In its useless winning.
There is no day with its sordld strife
Worth the serious thought we give It,
No passing hour in a careless life
worth the trouble 1t takes to live it.
SO pluck the rose while you chance to live,
Hold your pleasures as you may find them,
Forget, In joys that those red lips give,
The grin OF the skull behind them.

LUNDY MCDONALD FIGHT.
State Papers Disagree as to the
Victor ut BOdie.

Victor at BOdie.
Considerable advance interest had
been ELECTED by the announcement
that a prize fight between Lundy
and Mcdonald would be pulled off in
Bodie. That the proposed mill, how.
ever, fell far short of anticipations
may be safely assumed from the
caustic comments made upon affair
by the Bridgeport Chronicle Union.
That journal credited the victory
to Lundy, although it declared the
whole fight fake from start to
finish. But the GROWING feature of
farce took place when the defeated
Mcdonald went to Reno and the
papers Of that city, for some mysteri-
Gus reason, published that he had
whipped Lundy. Verify, the prize
fights Of Bodie are a marvel.

NEW YORK, June h4.-The record prices Tor cotton were made today. There was a great deal of excitement throughout the ses- sion, and the speculative crowd was as busy as the ant family in mid Summer. Relatively easy cables from the English market and fairly satisfactory crop and weather advices were discountenanced completely They at uacted little attention in that the first prices were at an advance of 6dl2 points for the old crop months and 8 points higher to points lower on the new crop deliveries Sem timent was changeable to a painful degree while the fluctuations throughout the day were nervous and feverish. and in some cases they were difficult to follow. Extraordinary irreg- ularities were noted here and there and the movement in the main was wide and violent At the top prices there heavy reducing but the offerings of long stun were well taken and sentiment continued mixed throughout the session. The lower prices were taken ad- vantage of by the bears on which to reduce commitments and the declines were usually followed by .rallying tendencies Naturally some Of the best prices of the day were re- corded during the afternoon session Spot cot ton was strong. the quotations being advanced strongly in the. local market The indicated receipts at interior points continued bullish The New Orleans receipts continued to run far ahead of those of last year at this time The close there were conflicting ideas with ref erence to the future and under the circum- stances conservative interests were inclined to proceed cautiously

 NEW ORLEANS. June 24-The opening of vance deliveries with spots quoted up 6. The improvement on the other side was not reflected in the local market along the whole list, only the near months being materially A stimulating factor later was the report of heavy rains all through Texas and fall of tenn perature in the Atlantic States which news set the early sellers bidding against each out reckoning on the weather conditions. Early cables reported good undertone, notwithstand- ing heavy selling orders from New York. It will indeed be phenomenal if the growing crop recovers lost ground to such extent as to make it equal to this present one. We have yet to pass through several critical months and it does not seem possible that the plant will be hardy enough to endure either prolonged heat or excessive cold rains, and a good top crop and very late frost in the which average crop can be made To re- turn to Liverpool. 1t is to be noticed that the sales there continue small. It is not due to cotton not being wanted, as the advices making desperate efforts to secure cotton in that market simply because it cannot be ob- tained elsewhere, which would suggest that those who hold cotton there are not prepared pective famine looked for during the balance of this season. For 1t is almost a foregone conclusion that the best of growing weather and conditions from now on will not produce cotton enough to meet the requirements of consumption. For some weeks the cotton mar ket has been a purchase declines and as we repeatedly advised and these views at the time were based upon the growing prosperity fin cotton manufacturing lines and the evidence that the crop to be gathered would be only to prove to the contrary the market will con- enue to warrant purchases on recessions.
