Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1875-12-09

We yesterday met Mr.. Barber, who
arrived on Monday from White Pine, at
which place he was engaged as night
foreman on the smelling works. He
states that the last run of the furnace
was good one, but was not a financial
success owing to the poor class of rock
bought, which hardly paid for the haul
ing. The ore shipped from here by the
American Flag mine worked splendid.
II all OF the ore had been of the same
character the run would have been
grand success. Mr.. Barber intends re-
siding here during the Winter. He says
the late strike in the Eberhardt, ut
Treasure Hill, made last Thursday on
the 450. foot level of that mine, dips to
the east and is of such grade and char
acter as to justify tho hope that further
developments will give very favorable
Indications.
IT was reported yesterday by parties
who seemed to credit the report that
Philip Klingen Smith had been muir
dered down in the vicinity of the Colo
RADIO river. We could learn no particu-
lars excep t that he was reported to have
made his way from Beaver down to that
vicinity all alone, preferring to trust to
the Indians and the dangers of the road
than to encounter any Mormons in his
travels. He entered house down near
the ferry of the Colorado to get his break.
fast. and after getting through and com.
Ing out he was shot dead, as was sup
posed, by o Mormon. The affair is said
to have occurred about the 25th Of No.
Vember. He has been threatened at
various times since the Lee trial, and
the late action of hostile parties tends to
confirm the report.
