NEWS AND GOSSIP
OF THE STOCK MARKET
NEW YORK.

What was probably the most import
ant news yesterday was not generally
known in the Street until Immediately
before the close Of the market. The
adoption at the annual meeting of the
Clearing House Association of the reso-
buttons submitted by President Nash, of
the Corn Exchange National Bank, pro-
viding that the clearing house committee
should take such steps as might be
necessary to bring about the resumption
of relations between the banks and the
trust companies. indicates clearly that
the Associated Ranks are fully alive TO
the fallacious and misleading nature of
last Saturdays bank statement. and
propose to reform the evil. The result of
the conference between the representa-
tiyes Of the banks and the trust com
panies Will be eagerly awaited by Wall

Answering the question why the
cliqucs do not agree with the commits
sion house following that a decided
break would be good for the market,
and would in the end assist the distribu-
ton of stocks, a veteran broker said:
Because men are very prone to say,
while the market is strong that they
would buy on a good break, but senti-
ment, and even conviction. changes sur
prisingly under the influence Of declin-
ing prices. What the owners of big &C.
cumulations of stocks want to do now is
TO justify the present level to the public
There is another reason No one can
predict just how far break will go
when once 1t gets started. At a time
like this even the most powerful pools
must take banks and bankers into their
reckoning. 4 break may come but IL II
does IL won't be the deliberate choice Of
the big fellows
There is good banking judgment be-
hind the opinion that Southern Pacific
will be put permanently upon a divi-
dend basis during the year 1906 in which
case the stock would prove TO have been
an excellent purchase around prevailing
prices. The financial interests closest to
/ the management are taking pains to
make ii clear that they do not counte-
nance the persistently circulated reports
of dividend payments in the near future.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF NYE COUNTY.
ARGEST CIRCULATION IN TONOPAH
SANITARY CONDITIONS.

Is it necessary in a community of six
thousand people to regulate sanitary
conditions through the adoption Of rigid
and compulsory ordinances?
Can a community of this number
of people preserve their health by
ignoring the most ordinary rules which
govern health conditions? 1t would
seem to an observer that the people Of
Tonopah, at least the majority of them
prefer to live under conditions which
must eventually lead to sickness and
doctor bills.
The reckless distribution of tin cans
ON the hillsides, in the gulleys, at back
doors, to say nothing of the garbage
and filth which many householders dis
pose of in the prospect holes and
abandoned shafts within the limits of
and in many cases in thickly settled
portions of the town, are a common
cause of sickness. This disregard of
the laws of cleanliness and health is a
to all and those who do observe
sanitary laws and respect the require
nents of health conditions are in as
much danger as those who criminally
disobey them, for they are dwelling in
the midst of filth which they are power
less to remove.
We understand that a company was
organized recently for the purpose of
removing all waste material, garbage
etc, from the town of Tonopah. Their
rates were mrde lower than those
which prevailed before, but despite the
fact that the prices and service were
within the reach of all, they were
forced to abandon their work through
lack of patronage. The existence Of ar
ordinance making it compulsory upor
the people to remove their garbage
would have afforded some protection tC
them in their efforts to keep the town
clean and beautiful; but unfortunately
the ordinance created was weakly con
structed and of no value or utility anC
should be amended. We Americans
r pre-eminent among nations as 1
aaw-abiding and orderly people anC
steps should be taken in every com
munity toinsure the sanitary protection
0f the people.

4 ROTTEN poSToFFICE.

There is not a person who calls for
their mail or has a box at the Tonopah

service given by Postmaster Bradley is
simply rotten" The office is now

bot che service grows worse. Every
day mail for prominent people who re-
side here and in fact, lived here from
the birth of the camp, receive letters
that have been in the Tonopah post
office for over two months. This alone
shows poor management. Only a few
days ago an advertised letter list a
mile long" was nailed up in the lobby
df the office. This according to law
should be done every week. We used
10 hear complaints about the Goldfeld
POstolice management, but Postmaster
B~radley's supervision of his Office is
simply immense. He should resign and

reins and give us the up-to-date service
we are entitled to. Patience has ceased

Nevada was admitted to statehood on
the 31st day of October, 1866, and has
since been known as the BATTLEFRONT
state. 1t came into the union during
the great civil conflict that came near
dividing the greatest nation on earth.
Its votes were cast to preserve the
Union and its millions of dollars helped
materially to preserve the national
credit. 1t would therefore be fitting
and appropriate, as the Carson News
suggests to celebrate Admission Day,
October 31st, each year.

o U MEN
Linderman, SeVener, German
and Roberts Die at Carson.

Z
The five members of the Board of
Pardons unanimously decided Wednes-
dav afternoon that ]. p. Sevener, f.
p. German, Fred Roberts and Al
Linderman should be hanged at the
state prison yesterday at 1890 a. IN.
for the murder of Jack WEIGH. The
board held an extended session and
after listening to the appeals of
Germans two heart broken sisters,
Judge Somers of Reno and others to
spare the lives of the condemned
men, went into executive session.
The Board, consisting Of Governor
Sparks, Attorney. General Sweeney
and Judges Talbot, Fitzgerald and
Norcross then discussed the case and
upon balloting voted three for death
and two for life imprisonment. After
several ballots had been taken, four
voted for the death penalty and
finally all five voted the same way.
Five minutes after adiouruing,
Father Garland of the Catholic
church at Carson rushed to the
capital grounds with an affidavit, the
sworn statement of f. T. Mattbe WIS
of Mare Island, stating that Matt
news was with Gorman in the saloons
at Lovelock on the night that the
murder was committed and that
German is innocent OF the terrible
crime. 1t was too late, however.
The board had adjourned and 1t was
an hour or more later before Cover
nor Sparks learned Of the strange
document As a result another meet.
ing OF the board was called for
Thursday morning.
Before leaving for their home il
San Francisco the sisters told Judge
r Somers that they felt grateful fol
the manner in which their Nevada
friends had treated them. "We ar,
