MISSOURT PACIFIC EXTENSION The Probability of Building Westward to Hastings Still in Doubt. NEW CORPORATION ARTICLES, The Dawson County Bank and the Manderson Town-Site Company Incorporated — State House Notes—Lincoln News. [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.| A representative of the Missouri Pacific ratlway was in Lincoln yesterday, and in conversation with the Beg stated that the only work by that company yet agreed upon for the present year wasthe building of the line from Talmage to Crete, and it was not considered that this line would be continued further the pres- ent year. In response to the query as to whether the Missouri Pacific would ex- tend its Lincoln branch westward the present year the reply was that from four to six weeks time would answer that estion, and that the speaker was not d to assert or either way at the present time. The interence gleuned, however, was very much of the appearance that the extension would be made. In response to the query regarding the any's building to Hastings the nt year, the Ber was somewhat surprised at the answer, which was that the Missouri Pacitic folks at St. Louis knew nothing of any such contemplated building, and had not made any proposi- tion for bondsjor aid. The informant stated that the Missouri Pacific people had only a short lease upon the Central Branch, upon which Warwick was situat- ed, and that the boom for the line from ‘Warwick to Hastings was not upon au- thority from the management of his com- pany. “When 1 left St. Louis a few days ago,” continued the speaker, “‘the only work laid out for Nebraska the present year was the single line from Talmage to Crete.” ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION. he Dawson bank, located at Dawson, Richardson county, Neb., has filed ar- ticles of incorporation with the secretary of state.

What Was Done in Early Days Be- tween Virginia and Reno, There was yesterday, says the Terri- i rise, some dispute as to the de in the early days between a and Reno by the ges and at the time of the lively competi- between Wells, Fargo & Co. E the citie Express cor pany, the latter being the op- position company. The talk revived memories which may now be of interest not only to early residents, but also to new-comers on the Comstock, The writer of this had the honor of riding with \V. P. Bennett, superin- tendent of Wells, kargo & Co's stages and ponies, when the fastest buck rd time was made. We came from Reno to the office of Wells, Fargo & Co., in this city, 1n one hour and eight minutes, beating the record Mr. Bennett and George Francis Tram made a few days before, which was one hour and ten minutes, It s bat fair, however, to say that when Train was aboard, the vehicle tumbled off the Geiger grade, causing a short delay. In his talk at Piper’s opera house that night, George Francis said he had trav- elod 1n all parts of the world 1n - all sorts of ways, but the huckboard, Mr. Benne t and his mustangs had more snap and chain lightning in them than i he had ever before experi fact was that George Fr fiq ened half to death all the w from Reno to this city. At Reno, before mounting the buckboard he thought it would be a fine exhilarating thing to do, but he got scared with the first venomous bounds the mustangs made and his scare *‘accu- mulated’ as the vehicle proce probably supposed that he was as bad frightened as he well could be while crossing the plains to the footof the Geiger grade, but when ho struck the mountains he began to think he had not been frightened at all before With the buckboard we bad two horses the most fierce and fiery little animals imaginable. In coming from Reno to this eity—about twenty-two miles by the road—we made five changes, the first at Anderson’s station, next at Huffaker's, at Steamboat creek, at the station at the foot of the grade and at the Six-Mile house, ou the summit of the grade, tho last change was made. At all these places spans stood ready harnessed and pawing the ground. The changes were made ina twinkling. There was a man for each buckle and strap. Our buckboard would hardly be stopped before Mr. Bennett would sing out, *'Let 'em go!” and away we flew again, leaving behind us a trail of dust that rose li(t[y feet into the air. The best time made between Reno and this city and riders was Aixt{-onu » pony of the Pacific express; and fifty-eight for the Wells-Fargo pony. Ten changes of ponies were made veen the two points, This was an oceasion when a job had been put up by J. W. Hemenway, the blacksmith, and several sports, to have the Pacitic pony beat Wells-Fargo. The gamblers and Hemenway had se- cretly gotall the fast nags they could tind in this part of the state, and had rung them into the linc of the Pacific ex- press ponies. When this was done they were ready to bet five to one on_the Pa- cific pony coming in ahead. Thev took all the bets they could get, putting up every cent they could. But the game had leaked out. Mr. Bennett was prepared for their fast nags. Mr. Latham, then head man of the oflice of Wells, Fargo & Co., in this city had said: “I've got $500 on this race, Mr. Bennett, nmfl want you to beat those fellows. “All right,” said Mr. Bennett, “I'll beat’em!" and beat them he did. The horses the Pacific express folks were runming—the fast nags run in by Hemenway—were swift on good ground, but were new to the hills. “Mr. Bennett went among the stage teams and picked out all the best end fastest horses, put- ting them on the road as ponies. He be- an at the foot of the grade and strung these long winded stage horses all the way up and and across the mountain. They were what carried the day. The fast nags weakened when urged on the steep face of the mouatain, but the old stage horses galloped right along up. n the occasion of this race —the most noted of many—Mr. Bennett himself rode from Steamboat creek to the Six Mile house, at the top of the Geiger fi‘rule, and Archie Morris then rode into the office 1n this city. George Gray took the first heat out of Reno. There were four riders in this distance, but we do not remember the name of the other man, This famous race took place in 1869. Previous to this there had daily been very heavy betting on the ponies— all the sports becoming interested—-but this ended it. About four weeks later there was a great race between the stages of the rival companies. It the stage race Billy Hodges drove tor Wells, Fargo & Co. and Charley Croall for the Pacitic Expi company, Hodges drove six and Croall four horses, Croall got the lead at Reno and kept it till Huffaker’s station was reached. Hodges then got shead, and kept the lead to the foot of the Geiger grade, where Croall cut in ahead, and kept ahead till the Ophir house, on the grade, was reached. Then Hodges passed Croall, and from that time on the two coaches were close together. When they struck the north end of C street, where there was room enough, Croali pulled up alongside of Hodges, but found it impos- sible to pass him, so evenly balanced were the two teams as regarded speed and strength. The two stages drove into the city sido by side, amid the shouts and cheers of thousands of excited spectators, who thronged the sidewalks, filled the balconies, and covered housetops. The time made in this race from Reno to this city was 1 hour and 32 minutes. Colonel Avery,tho well-known mill and mining superintendent, was at Reno when the stages started. He had a fine light buggy and a pair of horses that he thought the finest and best on the Com- stock. The colonel said he would beat the two racing stages into Virginia City or kill both of his horses. He followed the stages until near the White house, about half way up the grade, when his horses were 80 fatigued as to be ready to drop. They stopped and could not be moved. The colonel saw that if he urged them further he would kill the animals; therefore he allowed them to rest and travel the remainder of the road at a leis- urely gait. He arriyedn the city an hour and a half behind the stages. W. P. Bennett, the hero of many of the staging exploits of these early days and exciting times, is still on the Comstock, and is now a resident of Gold Hill. He was with Wells, Fargo & Co. through the hottest of all their tights with opposition companies, and they were frequent and many. While he was carrying the ex- press letters on the buckboard the poor- est tune made between this city and Reno was one hour and thirteen minutes. During his reign on the road he can boast of many victories and has few de- feats to mourn, He had under him many of v.h: most famous drivers on the Pacitic coast.

Juan Suarez, & Mexican by birth and a wanderer by nature as well as by neces- sity, had for many years been a wanderer from his native country, seeking to gratify o love of nd to amass a fortune, Having accomplished both to a considerable degree he thought he would EXPLORE MEXICO©ON FOOT. Up from the river Tobasco, in the ex- treme southeast of Mexico, there stood, at the time of our story, an’ vy entwined cottage which was dignified by the term inn. Having traveled con abl ne , hot and fatizued, Suarez stopped at nn to refresh himself, and was soon ted among the motley group of the hangers-on at such places of resort. Finding that about two miles further on the road he should arrive at a small mar- ket town, where accommodation for the night of & much more convenient nature could be procured, he resolved to go thither, _When he took out his purse to pay his billllio oasually: eXposeta £ QuAttity Lot money, and the boors of the village "who irrounded the table 1 d upon the wealth with ava While Su- counted out a certain sum he not- iced a greedy-eyed, ill-looking feliow fix his eyes upon him and bis purse in a way that did not please him. Suarez soon took his departure and proceeded leisarcly on to his destination, The evening began to close, and on ar- riving at a dull part of the road, over- hung by high banks and covered with furze and briars, he suddenly found him- self STUN ) BY A BLOW by some one from behind, and he fell in- sensible to the ground. When he mi-conscious he discoverea he was bleeding and lying in & wet ditch, half drowned, apparéntly in his own blood. A man was leaning over him, and humanely endeavoring to as: nally he concluded that Suarez d, and started ofl to make known LOVE! It was nearly dark when Suarez roused himself and resumed his tramp. His clothes were wet through, and after washing himself he put on an- other suit, which he ried in a knap- sack. He rec: the ill-looking fellow at the inn, who cast such sinister glances at his money, and immediately suspected him as his The fellow, how- ever, had not secured Suarez’s money, and the latter thought 1t very funny that the follow had not robbed him, as the obljsct of the assault was undoubtedly robbery. After a fatiguing walk Suarez arrfved at the inn in the adjoining town, and had scarcely taken his seat before he over- heard a conversation among several men, stationed at the other end of the room, accompanied by expressive looks toward him. As he was a stranger in the place he was not particularly surprised. The conversation soon became louder, and, at length, Suarez heard a strangely ex- aggerated story of HIS OWN MURDER. 1t was coofidently asserted that a stranger had been robbed and murdered a short distance fron the town, and that he had been found in a " ditch with kis skull fractured, his brains scattered about the road and his pockets turned inside out. Suarez listened to this mar- velous history with considerable amuse- ment, and thought how easily a strange story is made to pass current, though based on the flimsiest of facts. After taking some refreshments Suarez proposed to return, and took a guantity of money to pay in advance for his ac- commodation. ~ As he did so, one of the party of men conversing together, came up to him, and after impudently gazing into his face, turned to his companions and mysteriously whispered: ‘“There’s blood on this man's face. Ho has got a qunnm‘y of money. Wheredid he come from? Who is he?” ‘The crowd seemed excited, and the old fellow again wvro:whod Suarez, and asked him where he had got the money then in his possession, and sarcastically asked if such money grew on bushes. Being answered in a careless manner he put his fingers cunningly to his nose, and closely scrutinizing Suarez, remarked aloud that the latter had blood on his face, and that his appearance was some- what suspicious. At this juncture the man who had found Suarez in the ditch put in an appearance and proceeded to relate in the most pic- turesque style how he found a strange man with ‘his skull fractured and his pockets turned inside out, lying in the ditch quite dead. He stated he went for assistance to the village, and on inquir- ing at the inn there he had discovered thata man dressed answering the de- scription of Suarez had been there and had displayed a quantity of money, Having obtained assistance, he returned to the spot where he left the mur- dered stranger, but iustead of finding him, he discovered that during his absence the body had been stripped and removed, and, as he supposed, buried, and the clothes were lying J I'TERED ABOUT THE DITCH, listened to all with an amused smile, and when the man had finished his story Suarez observed that the group of men were casting inguisitive looks at him, and he heard the words ‘‘dollars” and “blood’* whispered among the men, At length the man who figst approached Snarez left his companions, and goin, out of the inn returned shortly after wit! a constable, and without further cere- mony handed Suarez over in charge of the oflicial, who immediately vroceeded to search his prisoner. When the pris- oner’s purse, containing the money was roduced the man who found the mur- ered stranger set up a shout, and fixing ng his eyes on the blood on the pris- oner’s face, said he was sure he was the murderer and robber, and at_the pro) time would tell allaboutit. No assertion or explanation of Suares could serve him one jot, and he was finally conveyed to the jail and locked up. The next day Suarez was conducted, after much peril, 1nto the presence of the village magistrate. His sccuser was placed before him, and in a blunt, nrmihuorwnrd manner told his story— how he was passing al the road; how he found the stranger with a fractured skull lying dead, and covered with blood and brains; how he went for assistance, and on his return found the clothes scat- tered about and the body removed. Suarez’s own money and his own blood on his face was given 1n evidence 'nfi:\hwt him; the stery’ was complete in all ats details, - and the vestigation ended in the prisoner beng committed to the county juil to await trial for the willful murder of a person unknown, and the constable was ordered to make diligent search for the body. Shortly after his commitment, as if all cireumstances conspired against him, the people, after an active search, suceceded in discovering the body ot a strange per- son, almost in a ‘stite of nudity, in a canal, which ran along the back of the town, upon which the coroner sat in due form; and thus, to the satisfaction of his persecutors, a chain of evidence was made out sufflciently strong to put Suarez on trial. Let these good people, who preach so strongly in favor of the comfortable fecl- ings arising from couscious innocence, and build so much on inward fortitude, and who join in the declaration of the poet that *“‘what is js right"—let them place themselves for a moment in Suarez's position—let thom feel the hor- rors of a man charged with his own mur- der, and unable to conyince the judges that heis ACTUALLY IN . How obtusc are tellects of many worthy people, who, in the eager pursait of truth, hug to their hearts any antic hance to assume the garb of ly disc 1 Already Suarez fancied in _his gloomy refiections that he heard the jury declare him guilty, and in his dreams he saw the futai black cap wlaced over his head. Then he fancied he heard his last d speech and confessions chanted about the streets and posted on_cottage walls, and children taught reading out and the necessity of virtue. Then the horrors of an_ignominious death—the halter—the gallows—the shouts of ‘‘monster,” *‘mur- derer,” ete., all echoing around him in his imagination. At length the accused man was placed 1.~ His own conviction of his per- identity was comple but would il him anything? The story on which he had to depend was nothing in the fuce of the evidence to be adduced, Should he be allowed to setup himself as the murdered man, when the witness saw him dead, and the body was after- wards found in the al.” It was con- trary to common sense, and would, of course be looked upon as the desperate attempt of the hardened villamn TO BAFFLE THE ENDS OF JUSTICE, The trial proceeded. I'he audience shuddered as they heard the glaring facts. And, oh! what looks of horror h were cast at the prisoner! 5 th her myriad ears, was gaping on, and gulping down the pal- pable story. The witnesses gave their evidence with clearness and precision. The landord of the little public house 5 2 first stopped was called to ing seen the dollars in the on of the murdered man when at ¢. During ali the previous pro- ceedings this man had never before looked at Suarez to face; but when he was confronted with him he gave an involuntary start, and seemed unable to utter a syllable. He fixed his eyes intently on the prisoner, and point- ing to hisown cheek stammered out. “'He 13 not guilty! he is not guilty!” lluuringlhfi exclamation, and sceing him point to his cheek, Suarez remem- bered that he had a Jarge secaron hisown, from a sabre wound he received years before; and when the witness gained his composure, he proceeded to identify Suarez as the man who came to his house with a quantity of moncy, on the evenin. of the supposed murder, and asserte that the prisoner could be none other than the SUPPOSED VICTIM OF BRUTAL VIOLENCE, But the body found in the canal—had it a scar like Suarez's on the cheek? No— the witness whno found it remembered i had not. Hope dawned on Suarez warmly enough. He was called on for his defense, and told his tale simgly and composedly, and his heart beat calmly, The judge summed up briefly and di- *rected ‘the jury, as usual, that if there was any doubt, the prisoner should be en- titled to the benefit of it. The jury obeyed the direction of the jud; the verdict of *‘not guilty” alone Suarez the melancholy satisfaction of relating to the writer sufferings not to be found among the destinies of any other mun in the world. Some ill-natured people. notwithstand- ing the verdics, still believed Suarez to be guilty; and while the newspapers were zealously arguing pro and con the ques- tion, he quiesly slipped off to this country, and is now living 1n tolerable ease in Brooklyn, and no one has ever since ven- tured to dispute the point with him whether he is dead or alive, An American Article of most careful and original manufacture.
