Extra LixcoLy, Neb., April 4 gram to Tur Bee.|—The closing hours of a legislative session are usually marked by rovelry and a general “hurrah, boys.” The grinaing out of bills has ceased some time be- fore, aud while the legislative body is wait- ing for them to boengrossed that the presid- ing oficer may sign them in tho presence of his organization, there arc intervals in which no business can be transacted, Relieved of the responsibility that has rested on them for three months, the members indulge bursts of boyish pla and their capers always attract a big andience of spec tators [Special Tele- fulness, When the house couvened at 8 o'clock to- night the gallery, lobbies and aisles were full of expectant oulookers. The floor was littered with discarded newspapers, aban doned bills and g public documents Waste baskets were being heaped with bill files, ink bottles and cuspidors to spend the remainder of their useful careers in orna- menting city oftices ana county farm houses. Speaker Elder, conscious of his utter in- ability to manage the helm, put_ Church Howe in the chair, without even calling the house to order. The independents, who bave not succeeded in enacting uny ' of the imoortant measures demanded by their plat- form have been hanging their last hope on the Shumway bill. They made one brief, pasmodic effort this afternoon to get it up, but were circumvented by the opposition with the rule requiving a_two-thirds vote to take up a measure out of its regular ovder. At the first opportunity tonight Shrader moved to go into committee of the whole w consider the usury bill, ana after some fili- bustering it was carried. Ford, Brennan and Breen of Omaha voted with the independ- ents, having promised to doso in return for the withdrawal of theindependent opposition to the Omaha charter. A number of other mwembers paid off similar debts in like man- ner, and Shrader's motiou reccived 60 votes aganst 21 nays.

LixcoLy, Neb, April 4.—(Special Tele- gram to Tug Bee)—The house refused to sanction the increase of salary of the gov- ernor's private secretary, and the senate re- ceded from ils amenament to the appropria- tion bill made yesterday. The house ulso re- fused to concur in & number of awendments 10 the appropriation bill, for the support of state institutions, and the senate submitted amendments providing for deficiencies which were allowed. A number of senators were missing from their seats, when the evening session began, and Senator Switzler moved a call of the Nuse, The intention was 10 se. Last M At 11:55 p. m, President Majors appointed *nators Poyuter, Shumway and Switzler a wmittee to wait on Governor Bovd to ascertain if he had any communication which he wished to send to the senate. The committee returned later and raid his ellency had nothing to communicate to the body. On me { Senator Day, Senator Wilson was ullowed £55 for attornoys’ fees in bis election contest Governor Boyd Returned. LixcoLy, Neb, April 4.—[Special Tele- gram to Tue Be Governor Boyd went to Omaha this afternoon but returned this even- ing, as it was thought he might bo required because of the closiug session of the legisla ture, The indefinite postponement of the ropresentative and senatorial apportionment bill by the senate today, itis thought, will cotpel Governor Hoyd to call a special ses- sion of the legislature to pass u bill on that subject. The call, however, will not be issued imuediately. Devastating the Senate Chamber, Lixcory, Neb, April 4.—Special to Tuz Ber,|—This morning tho joint committee on final adjournment of the bouse and senate reported in favor of bringing the session to a close at 10 o'clock tonight. The repdrt was adopted This report would have been made earlier, had it not been understood that the rvepr sentative and senatorisl apportionment bill was to be passed. This morning, however, it was discovered that the bill gave satisfaction to but few of the scnators and accordingly the latter decided to killit. This they did late. The body was then ready to go home. Senators began to pack up the legislative files they have thumbed the past thr months, and to clean out the desks which, perhaps, snall kuow them no more. Boxed were brought from the cellar, the attic and the stores in town and filled 'with circulars, lettors, state publications and congressional doeuments which have accumulated during the session. Cuspidors, faney ones, too, by the way, apped up carefully and deposited in paper nests as souvenirs of legislative expectations. The paper bascets which have been kicked and battered and, ot times, sent fiying through thewir with truck of a lighter description and confided to committee clerks with in- structions to see them safely on board the train. Oue of thefe baskets, contuining four porcelain cuspidors, wds obligingly bundled were up by distinguished _gentleman who, this morning, returned home after hay. ing received a certain appointment Hohad cousented to act as porter for several legislators, though some people who saw him with bis load thought e was providing for bimself. Dhotographs which, for the past week have made their appearance at intervals, today circulated most freely, the members exchang: ing them with warm expressions of friend- ship and hopes of again meeting one another this side of the gray The lobby was ulmost deserted, only a few of the rs making their appearance, These nted importants interests, and feared that bills calculated to injure them might even at the last moment be rushed through the body This was a précaution which, however,was not justified. The mewbers were tired and only” too glad to get howe, There were only two absentees at the af- ternoon session, Messvs, Shea and Tuylor, ‘Tha former unfortunately has been absent nearly all the session, aud his absence has been a source of regret to many of the mem- bers who felt that he could have been of a great deal of service had it not been for his unfortunate illness, Tue absence of the other senator was not greatly felt, Presented to Employes.

This more. ing a committee made a Mcommendation thay all theemployes of this committee be allowed pay from the time they were sworn in, near the beginning of the session. A motion to table the refort was offered by the indegen- dents, and after an hour's ight the generous donation to their nppointees was confirmed by a vote of 42 to 3.

Famous Lost Brayfogle Mine is in the Balt, but Not Relocated. PIONEERS FOUND A RICH MINE THERE. ey Suffered from Thirst and Heat and Had to Abandon the Riches Whic Rediscovered. h Were Recently Sax Fraxcisco, April 4.—Recent mineral discoveries in that part. of Nye county, Ne- vada, known as Death valley have aroused great excitemeut on the Pacifio slope. As already fully described in Tue Bre b is claimed that the famous Breyfogle mine, which was lost years ago, has been re-located Whether it is this old mdary mine that has peen struck again, or an entirely new find that has been made has provoked much discussion 1w miving circles. 1t will take some time evidently to settle the merits of the new discoveries, and the contradictory reports which appear from time to time are not caleulated to help the matter. So far no investigation of the original statements has been made which would justify an opinion on the subject one way or the other, while the 't that the district includes the location of the celebrated lost mine knowu as the Bre fogle hightens public interest in the solution of the question involved. EXPERTS INVESTIGATE, A report which was circulated rich ore had been discovered in valley country took several parties into the fleld. Somestarted out well equipped for an expedition through the district and a pro- longed stay, while others simply made a flying trip of it, totako m the outlook at a glance and with as much speed as possible. The latter party has returned and madoa re- port. Among the names mentioned are those of Callahan, until recently superintendent of the Diamond ) mine of Nevada: Irwin, well known in connection with the Bodie cawp, and Briden, an old-time superin- tendent of tho Andes mine. These men made the trip in less than thirteen days, which, as it takes eight days to drive to the camp and return to Daggett, the n ear est railroad point, and thirty-six hours each going and coming from this ci'.{‘, did not leave them many hours within which'to pros- pect the new find 8o as to beable to report authoritatively on the subject. They are all reliable, clear-headed and thoroughly eon- sclentious men, and as such, what they say must carry weight among mining men, who know them, if not personally, at least by reputation, Mr. Irwin said that the country had not yet been prospected suficiently to enable any one toform any correct idea of the value of “the discovery.” The whole matter simmered down to a quéstion of development work, with a ood prospect to start upon. In here that the Death couclusion Mr. Irwin remarked, *Ihave no doubt there will be a camp there.’* WIHAT THE DISCOVERER SAYS, In an interview with George Monteomery, the orizinal discoverer of the mineral which it attructing so much attention, he “said: left San Andreas, Calaveras county, Cal, 1ast September on a prospecting tour through [ the Death valloy district, taking with mc complete outfit with a packtrain and twen four animals. I entered Nevada south of tho Carson and struck off towards Walker lake, After leaving Hawthorno I left the railroad at Soda springs and moved west until struck the Firebug mountains. Here I began prospecting, and took in the whole country with poor success until I reached Timber mountaius, as they are known by the peo- ple there. Sometimes they are called the Charleston mountains, Here I went through astrip of country fitty miles east snd west and 150 miles in length, north ana south. Iu the northward trip 1 found little worth men- tioning, and did not meet with anything to locate until January 9. ST found some good croppings five miles west of north end of Charleston mountains, from which I got some coarse gold. A nugge! was broken from the quartz at one point, which was worth from & to #. The next day T broke out some more rock ana took out about $40 in coarse gold. I thon located tho mive. ~ For some days after I prospected in the neighborhood and found some silver ore, assays from which, made by KFalkenau in San Francisco ran 1118 ounces to the ton. That was a fair average of' the ore as I took it out at that time, contem- vlating shipping it for reduction. The whole camp was then moved to Grapeviae spring on the west side of the mountain, and systematic prospecting was carviea on for some time in the surrounding country. Asa resuit I made several other locations, one of which was silver and the rest gold-bearing veins. PROSPECTONS 1N LUCK. “Before leaving the camp I divected others toveins and they located on them. From some of these I have since heard that th opened out well in coarse gold. The Yount Brothers made oue of the locations, and 1 had a lovter last weck in which thoy said that they had just taken ovt§25'in one shot. 1 have not made any attempt to boom this distriet since my arrival and I do not wish to be held responsible by men who start out ex- pecting to find gold hungiug on greasewood am satisfied myself in respect to the district: 1 have located property to suit myself and propose to solye the question of its value to my own satisfaction. It is qnite true that the camp is still only a prospect and that it will take time und money to open it up. But at the same timo it is what will be very gen- erally admitted a very good prospect.” In conclusion Montgomery remarked that it was unintentional on his part that so much publicity had been given the matter. Any one who wished information on the subject from him always got it without any attempt at exaggeration. ‘The mines, he claims, ar in the sume belt as the old Breyfogle mine, but he docs not flatter himself that he has been fortunate enough to locate the long lost bonanza. Other experts who started 1o in- vestigate the district are now on their way tothe camp and & number of surveyors have left Daggett. Men in chargo of the expedi- tion are well known and comperent Nevada miners, fully equipped for a prolonged stay in the camp. NUSBAUMER'S OLD MINE, Concerning the recent difcovery of what is believed to be the celebrated Broyfogle, it would appear altogethier probable that thls is the same mine that was discovered over years ago by Louis Nusbaumer, now docensed, an old and respested citizen of Ala- medu county, and for years a resident of the Livermore vl tho Chronicle In the spring of 148 Nusbaumer loft New Jersey bound for the coast. When ne reached Salt Lake the train of prairie schooners was 120 in number. Their progress was necessarily slow, and Nusbaumer and six othér adventuresome young men determined to push on to “the coast Oue of the party, named Suith. declared that he had made the journey before by & short southern route, and offered to leaa them 10 the promised land. They abandoned terrible condition from thirst and lack of nourishment. One by one the weaker of tho little band dropped to the ground never to arise again, and wero left o their fate, In his lifetimo M. Nusbaumer often related with great feeling the pathetic and beart- rendering incidents of bls awful journey. When o man fell heknew it was for tho last time, and those who thus perished met their end like men. Onea oue of the party, being unable to arise, was loft to die, he declaring he could not go another step. A few miles boyond the others came to a spring. Fillinghis cantoen, Nusbaumer hastened back to his fallen com: rade, But he was dead, and the ground around him was torn mp in his agonizing struggles. GOLD DAZZLED THEIR EYES. At last all had succumbed totheir hard- ships but Nusbaumer and one companion. Whilo wandering about Death valley scarcely knowlng or caring whera they weve goirfiz, and borne long by their remarkable vitality and pluck, they digcovered a phenomenally rich gold mige. Itwas & ledge, Nusbaumer has stated, from which the gold in the out- crovpings of rich quartz glistened brightly in the sun, and it was theshining metal ihat first causzht their weary eves. They broke off some rich specimens with their knives and continued their journey over the valley, subsequently comingto a spring in_the western hills abont thirty miles from where they had found the gold, They hero rested and eventually struck the Williams ranch and beheld the firsthuman face besides thoso of their ill-fated companions sinco they had left the train. In age time they reached their destination, but Nusbaumor™ and his brave comrade never made an attempt to find the mine in the search for which 0 many havesince lost their lives. They took what bearings they could, the principal point of location being the little spring in the hills whose cool, refreshing wator had sayed their lives, Nusbaumer kept o diagy of the ovvents of his struggle for life, and b is thought still to be i the possession of thefamily.

The Sligo Election a Fatal Blow for the Deposed Leader-Gladstone in Much Better Spirits, - [Copyright 1891 by James Gordon Bennett.] Loxvoy, April 4.—[New York He Cadle—Special to Tur Brk)—Sir Cha Dilke is beginning to weigh like a nightmare on the Gladstonian leader. Having shattered the Irish alliance in defense of domestic pur- ity, how are they to give a cortiticato of good moral character to tne Dilke family and the vestof the havem? Dilke has retried his own case1n a privato courtand brought in unani wously averdict of not guilty. Thisisin every way plensanter than gowng into the witness box on 4 regular trial and submitting to cross examination. Ditke declined that ov- but his pamphlet has now been sent to avery member of parliament alleging his complete innocer Agaln the question arises, what will Gladstone do, having or- dered Parnell into retirement for an offense far less gross, will the wood cld man receive Dilke with open arms? It is unde stood that he has been sounded on the sub’ ject and came 10 the conclusion not to inter. fere in any way with Dilke's candidature for parliament. He holds thathe has no right to dictate to the constituency a choice of member, but will not consent to resume an relations with Dilke, regarding his pamphlet asno answer (o the verdict of thesworn jury approved by Justice Hanner, Most of Dilke's pariamentary friends look upon his attempt to force his way back with aisapproval. The house of commons is not puritanical but will not staad the presence of 4 man practically convicted of a grave offensein a court of law. I remember Dilke's efforts to hold his ground in the parliament of 1885, He came overy day but was cut dead by his fellow members. When he took his seat @ place soon cleared on each side, and iuthe division, lobbies and smoking rooms hestood an isolated figure. At last he had Lo give up andso it would be again. Meanwhile Parnell is belog mashed by the Catholic cleray, and the Sligo election was a fatal blow. The boast of the anti-Parnellites that he cannot carry a single seat in all Ire- land seems likely tobe justified by events. The priests have got him in their power and mean to crush him. During the remainder of the present par- lament Parnell may worry and annoy his former followers but his teeth are broken, The McCarthyites aro highly jubilant today and Gladstone is 10 much vetter spirits, Much interest is being shown in the at- tempts of Horatio Bottomby to get elected to parliament in spite of his dubious record in conncction with various public companies which wrned out disas.rously for the un lucky shareholders. One of Bottomby's schemes was to buy up a lot of rotten Anglo American continental papers at rubbisn prices, palm them off upon British green horns for £80,000, and with £10,00 of work- ing capital, he then calculated that Galig- nani’s Messenger, aiready moribund, could carn interest on the entiresum. The scheme utterly collapsed, the company is in the hands of a receiver, wretched Galignani chocked into debts, and the shareholdeas are furious, but Bottomby, with the spoils ia his pocket, coolly offers himself for parliament. A formidable attack has been opened upon him from soveral quarters, from which the plamtive moans of Galignani arenot likelyto deliver him at present.

He failed to give the Trish priests credit for enough pluck and persistence. The English pross takes an important view of the Italian-American question, but Eng lishmen @enerally are outspoken in favor of the United Statos, William Mercer of Gainsborough writes as fellows to the Herald:#“As an tuglishman 1 am unwilling to interfere in a dispute that doubtless all Americans will be disposed to arraign in a loyal, serious and just manner, but my quality of Britaln cannot prevent me from saving that at last, after years the Italian government deserves to be pad in its own coin, and to be summarily told that its own action in & case where it has refused all redress has prejudiced fatally its subjects, and, like curses are proverbially said to do, it has come home now to roost The English and Americat press, the house of commons and the Italian court of justice all strove in vain 4, 1872, till now to obtain an apology and re dress and compensation for the outrage of thumbscrewing and falseimprisonment. I suf- fered at the hands of the Italian police near Castellamare, Naples. Not @ sign of regret did the Ialian government, its people or press make during the long and weary strug- gle I then embarked in. The Italian govern- ment informed the English government that ‘the police were severely punished,’ and later when the claim for indemuity was put for ward they said that they had been acquitted and no claim would lie in law. Finally the Italian mivister of foreign affairs declared in the Italian pariiament louse that they were never triedat all.

The victim was bound to a pole and in that position paraded through the village two whole days. When froed from the pole he was placed in asort of coffin, hollowed from the trunk of a tree, and covered with a plank in which there was nothing but asmali hole of about three inches for the wvictim’s mouth and mose. The unfortunate native was kept screwed down in this coflin not less than two months and actually lived during thaftime. He was fod through theaperture, his relatives bemg permitted to give him tood. At length upon the payment of 100 piasters the governor allowed the man to bo rleased.
