vgurckrt lOailij Sentinel. FRIDAY....AUGUST 26. 1887 STUBBS, THE fREIflHT FIXER. We extract the following from the Reno Gazette: Stubbs says "there is no future for the road between Reno and Ogden.” Who is Stubbs? Why, he is the freight fixer of the C. P. Surely a twelve thousand-dollar a year expert knows all the ins and outs; he, at the corner of Fourth and Townsend streets, touches the electric key and all the people be tween Reno and Ogden feel the shock; he holds the keys that might make Ne vada a paradise but he says these broad acres will be dreary realms and uninvit ing as those of Hades. No hope for Ne vada! So our commanding officer says. We as a people have for lo! these many years been gracious and submissive, why should we now become obstreperous and insubordinate? Why now kick the pricks and curse our God, for in the day we do we shall surely die? This region which has produced in gold and silver: Storey county, $400,000,000; Eureka, $100,000,000; Esmeralda, $50,000,000; in agriculture and grazing: Elko, Hum boldt, Washoe and other counties hun dreds of other millions are under the ban of condemnation. Of these millions $40,000,000 have been handed over to our transcontinental road in freights and fares. But the edict has gone forth; worse, we fear that it iB the bull of ex communication, that it is unalterably fixed that the people who are so unfor tunate as to live between Reno and Ogden may never enjoy living freight rates, in common with the people in every other part of the United States. While our population has increased by fifty per cent since the admission of the battle-born State into the Union; while the yield of our mineral products has been the wonder of the world; while our cattle interests have increased within that time from nothing to $20,000, 000; while as a State we have always had for our motto, * ‘All for our Country, ” we begin to fear that our labor of years is all for another corporation. Ye Gods! Must we endure all this? We must, for while tiO.OOO people protest against slurs, insults and exortion it is always in a whisper and never more than half in earnest. This is the way the Brooklyn Eagle sums up the political situation in New York : The Labor parties—three or four —are pretty certain to offset one another, or fritter away labor’s special strength. The Prohibitionists are likely to poll a considerable vote. At present pros pects favor a Democratic victory on the general issue, that of State officers, and a Republicans victory in one or both branches of the Legislature. So the result bids fair to be a divided one. ' The Illinois Statute limits damages in case of death by railroad accident to five thousand dollars. The Chicago Tri bune urges that double that amount would not be too high and that the Chatsworth disaster will bring about a repeal of the existing law. Let us hope so ; a high limit, as suggested, is one ex cellent way to assure the safety of pas sengers by rail, and another is to compe the substitution for wooden bridges of bridges of iron and stone. A Washinuton special to the New York World says : A statement in detail of the affairs of the Pacific railroads is being prepared by Major Reddington with a view to the prosecutiom, both oriminally and civilly, of the directors of these companies, and the recovery of 175,000,000, out of which they are said to have swindled the Government. The indications are that the administration will push the prosecution. Viotor Hugo, though secceBsful from the first, was not very self-reliant in his youth. At seventeen he wrote two odes which were crowned by the Academy, but were returned to him for alterations deemed necessary. In his answer he said: “I have had a great deal more trouble to modify than to compose these odes, and that is the reason why I doubt of the success of my work.’’ The Sultan of Zanzibar has had a gi gantic merry-go-round ereoted in the gar den of bis oountry palace. Every denizen of the African jungle is repre sented on it. His favorite amusement is to take about fifty of the ladies of his harem out to this palace, where he makes them ride round for hours at a time while he looks on and drinks sherbet. San Francisco Post : The average hoodlum is a pitiful case. Hs was born tough, and does not seem to be able to be anything else ; but that is no reason why he he should be placed on city pay rolls and taken care of by politicians, while good men are wanting work. Senator Voorhees expresses his satis faction with the progress whioh the Ad ministration has made in removing Republicans from office in Indiana. Boston Globe : Senator Leland Stan ford of California has about the biggest fortune and the smallest memory in the United States. TELEGRAPHIC. The r»lholle» i»n«l the O. A. K. Pittbbubq, Aug. 24.—Arthur Gilder new, member of Post 157, of the <4. A. R., died on Saturday and was buried with Grand Army honors. He was also a Catholic, and his family and Army comrades desired his interment from the church. The priests at the Cathedral were notified of the funeral, and Father Graham was appointed to say mass for the repose of the soul. Father Kearney, rector oi the church, is said to have declared that if the body was buried by the Grand Army, it could not be buried from the church and gave instructions as to how the funeral should be conducted, which greatly angered the dead man’s com rades. He was also reported as say ing that if the coffin was covered with the stars and stripes, the flag would have to be taken off before the coffin could be allowed in the church. The funeral took place yesterday and Post 157 took charge of the remains. Four of his comrades were selected as pall bearers, and the rest formed in line and followed the remains. When they arrived at the cathedral the cof fin was taken out but the flag was re moved and left in the hearse. The pall bearers, all Grand Army men, did not wear anything to denote that they were such except their buttons. They were followed by the family and others. The cortege moved into the church. The comrades who were in uniform, with the exception of the pall bearers, did not enter the church but remained outside until the services Xvere over and the body was carried out again. After the coffin was placed in the hearse the flag was wrapped around it again and the re mains interred in St. Mary’s Cemetery where the usual burial services of the order were observed. Youthful Swindlers. Washington, Aug. 24.—Harry T. Cook, aged about 21 years, and Chas. T. Cook, Ills brother, some years younger, were arrested here this after noon, the elder for forgery, and the younger for collusion. Their plan of operation was novel and ingenious, and but for an oversight which might have been avoided they could have gone on indefinitely in their course. Harry was discount clerk in the Col umbia National Bank, where he had access to all the signatures arid ac counts of the bank’s patrons. It has been shown by investigation that he, some time ago, disguised himself, and, under an assumed name, opened an account in another bank. He then forged the name of one of the Colum bia Bank’s depositors to a series of checks, payable to himself under his assumed name, and got his younger brother to deposit to their account the checks after they had been returned to the Columbia Bank for collection, and after they had been paid in and the books were secured by the forger and destroyed. The culprits are sonB of the late Professor Cook, of this city. The Call Board Besamea. San Francisco, Aug. 24.—The call board regularly opened for business yesterday. The call on barley was fairly good, but a feeling of uncer tainty prevailed in wheat, and $1 35 was only bid for seller 87, which was offered at $1 50. Not a single transac tion took place, bat the bankers re tired from ’Change satisfied that initiatory steps had been taken and the market bed-rocked so early. At the afternoon session 200 tons of wheat changed hands, of which the greater part was seller 87 at $1 48, the remainder selling at $1 40 for Decem ber. new York Socialists. New York, Aug. 24.—At a meet ing of Socialists at Cooper Union last night speeches were made and resolu tions adopted denouncing Henry George, his platform and his follow ings. Every mention of his name was the signal for hisses and cheers. A red flag was carried into the hall and waved from the platform. Drowsed by a Cloudburst. JjpcoRRo, N. M., Aug. 24.—A por tion of the Black Range was visited by a destructive cloudburst. Thomas Edwards, his eight-year-old son and another man were caught in the flood while crossing a dry arroya in a wagon and the whole party was drowned. Arrested ror Murder. Chicago, Aug. 24.—A special from Gardener, 111., says: Miss Sarah II. Dodgo was arrested last night on the charge of being the murderess of Walter Babcock of Chicago, who died yesterday from a mysterious pistol shot received at Gardener. Vir to tbe Springs. Charleston, S. C., Aug. 24.—C. E. Bartlett, cashier of Sumter National Bank, disappeared yesterday morn ing with about $20,000. The bank has suspended temporarily. Protesting Against Chinese Labor. Fkrndalk, Cal., Aug. 24.—Owing to the report that a San Francisco packing company intended to bring Chinese here to operate its salmon cannery, a meeting was held here to protest against such action. The Cholera In Italy. Rome, Aug. 24.—In Catania during the past 24 hours there have been 19 deaths from cholera; in Palermo 17 new cases and 11 deaths; in Capana only a few cases are reported. Henry Main lu the City of Mexico. City or Mexico, Aug. 24.—The rain of last night inundated many streets rarely flooded, and shops are being pumped out. HOT. BAKTIjET f ntricheb. Worn Out by Arduoun Labor, He !■ Overtaken by Ptrtlytli. Bar Fbancisco, Aug. 24.—Governor Washington Bartlett, who has been in a precarious condition for some time, was strioken by paralysis last night, and there is little hope of his recovery. About three months ago, the Governor, worn out by several months of arduous labor in the Mayor’s office in Ban Francisoo, in his campaign through the State and in the Governor’s chair during the session of the Legislature, went to Highland 8prings. He was in a feeble oondition, and his symptoms were diagnozod and indicated Bright’s disease ol the kidneys. He re covered somewhat and these symptoms departed. Several weeks ago he went to the residence of his cousin and physician, Mrs. Buckel, in Oakland, where he is at present. The Governor himself is aware of his oritical oondition, and this afternoon directed that a dispatch should be sent Lieutenant Governor Waterman immedi ately upon bis death. All bis relatives have been summoned and are now near him. The Governor’s mind is still clear, but his utterance has beoome so thick that it is scarcely distinguishable. Governor Bartlett is a Democrat, and was elected to office last November. In the event of his death he will be succeeded by Lieutenant Governor B. W. Waterman, who is a Be pnblioan. Nipped la tbe Bad. Is it not better to nip consumption, tbe greatest scourage of humanity, in tbe bud, than to try to stay its progress on the brink of the grave ?
