NAT GOODWIN
 LOST $l,25O,OOO

Los Angeles. Dec. 23.-Admitting that ne saw more than s1.OO0.0O slip from his grasp in his Nevada mining ventures, Nat c. Goodwin, when seen at his seaside home at Santa Monica, said he had washed his hands of min- ing enterprises in which there is an element of stock speculation.
 Reports from Nevada were that MT. Goodwin's actual loss in cash, without reckoning the 100000 or more that was swept away in the slump in Raw hide and Ely shares. was 250.OO0. and that his associates lost approximately s750. .0OO.
 'I do not mean that I have lost in- terest in mining" said Mir. Goodwin ''I still have money invested in flask 'an mines. Although I have given up all my Nevada holdings, l still believe the mines are good.
 'It was stock speculation which dis gusted me with the Nevada game. Had the operations there been cOnfn- ed to legitimate mining I would not have become dissatisfied. I do not mean by this to criticise any of my associates. They did all they could to protect holders of stock in the various Nevada companies in which was in terested. They spent thousands and thousands of dollars in their efforts and did not stop until 1t was a choice between bankruptcy and discontinu- ing the buying up of the stock that was thrown upon the market.

RAILROAD co. MAY SUE GOVERNMENT
 ON MAIL CONTRACT

It is said in Washington that the New York. New Haven & Hartford Railroad company may bring suit against the government because of the provisions Of the contracts under which it is now carrying the mails. The railroad company alleges that it will lose money under the contract which 1t accepted under protest and because of the duties devolving upon it as a common carrier in southern New England.
 It is urged that Congress should un- dertake remedial legislation and the matter may first be heard by the con- gressional committee on post offices and post roads. It is said. too. that other corporations and individuals who are accepting government contracts are also protesting because they are obliged to agree to perform any addi- tional service which may be without additional compensation.

U. 5. AFTER MOTH
 IN WALLINGFORD

Entomologist w. F. Britton of the State Agricultural Experiment station. said last night that the warfare against the invasion of the gypsy moth in wallingford was still being proceeded with relentlessly. Up to the present time over 4.2OO egg clusters of the moths have been destroyed, at the hands of a regular force of three ex- Derts.
 The greatest alarm concerning the invasion has been expressed from Washington, where there Is a liberal fund to aid in destroying this much feared pest. The state has also a fund Of s10.0O0 to be drawn upon in connec- ion with this work. Dexter M. Rog- CTS. of Boston. who has charge of government work in this section for the National Bureau of Entomology. has visited the scene and it is expect ed that pr. L. O. Howard. the chief of the bureau, will come on here from Washington and go over the infested territory with MT. Britton.
 Every effort will be made to confine the pest in the northeastern part of the United States, where it has thus far been held.
 It is believed that the wallingford invasion was brought from Massachu- sets in packing boxes and similar parcels on freight trains. Thus far it has not been discovered that the | dreaded insect has camped far outside of the limits of Wallingford.

It is understood that the aim of the hospital in accepting the gift and beginning the treatment will be to apply current methods for reliev- ing and curing the disease rather than to pursue original research work in seeking new cures
 For the present the name of the do- nor of the gift will not be made pub lie. As soon as the weather will all low work will be begun on new build inss for the treatment of tuberculosis under the conditions of the gift. Some of the structures will be placed on the hospital grounds, In Cedar street. while others will probably be in the country at a higher alt tude. Less tfal a month ago 1t was announced at Yale that the medical school had re- ceived a gift of s1Oo.000 to be awarded to the first person who discovers a permanent cure for tuberculosis Pres dent Whitney of the society says that there is no connection between the two gifts.

A Tragedy Recalled

This morning the remains of Major
s. G. !Scovill, who was killed in Reno,
Sept. 26, 1881. was brought to this city
for interment. s. G. Scoville was one
of the most well-known men and
popular citizens in this state at the time
of his death.
The killing of Major Scoville at the
Reno depot was state sensation at the
time.
Regarding the unfortunate affair the
Reno Journal of date of Sept. 81, 1881
says: '-.
THE bitterness which has existed
between the two factions of the N. &
o. R. R. managers resulted yesterday
in a shooting scrape between the
parties in which Major S. c. Scoville of
Reno and D. W. Balch of San Francisco
both fine gentlemen, received wounds
almost certain to cause their death"
The article hints at certain mysteries
surrounding the case. '.
Scoville died in a few days but
Balch is still living.
Although judicial Investigations
followed no one was ever convicted for
the killing of one of the most popular
men in western Nevada. Ap-
