Story Of the Emma Mine.

In midsummer, 1869, there were no
more than a thousand non-Mormons in
Utah, of whom half or more were en-
gagged in prospecting" for silver mines
or developing old locations. In q year
the INNINGS population increased to
1000, and it was soon established be-
You'd doubt that Utah was rich mining
country. In one month the Walker
Brothers shipped 1000 tons of ore.
The early history of the Emma mine
now reads like a romance. Mr.. j. b.
Woodman had never wavered in his
faith that the hill north of Little Cotton
wood canon contained rich deposit.
He had followed narrow vein till his
means were exhausted, without making
IS strike" His faith was infectious,
and one or two grocers in Salt Lake City
furnished him on credit hundred
pounds of flour and some meat, which
he and his partner carried up the canon,
wading through the snow. Before that
provision was exhausted, they came
upon the upper part of the deposit since
known as the Emma mine. In month
thereafter the most sanguine spoke OF 1t
as worth $40, 900, whereat the many
laughed. Every foot of additional de-
velopment showed the ore body to be
greater, and the property was success
sivelY sold and stocked at higher prices.
In September, 1872, after it had been
sold in London, gentleman familiar
with the workings of the mine present
ed the following exhibit:
Depth of workings feet. 23J
Breadth of workings, feet. ............... o to 4O
length of workings feet,.,....... ATS
Cubic feet excavated, about. ........... 500,O0O
Tons of ore extracted ................... 3O,OOO
Tons of waste and 1hird-class ore. 15,GOO
Value OF ore. -SzoU0,UOo
So small had been the expenses OF
working, on account of the loose nature
of the ore, that $4,000, 900 of this had
been clear profit. The mine might
honestly have been sold for $4,000, COO.
It was stocked at 100000. The re-
suit was failure to pay dividends on
such capital, cessation Of working,
caving in of the mine, a dis graceful
lawsuit, and an interesting scandal.
The nation at large has done little to ease
the smart In Utah we have one conso-
lation: All the honest work on the
mine was done by Gentle residents !;
all the fraud was perpetrated by men
who live outside of Utah, some of them
our worst enemies. But we have suf-
fered most of the Ill effects. A cloud
was thrown upon Utah mines which de-
layed our progress for two years.. IL.

Let No Guilty. Ean Escape

Gen. Rice branded Gen. Custer as liar,
and the latter has taken no steps TO dis
prove it or TO ayenge his wounded honor
A correspondentwrites OF Custer as follows !:
General George A. Custer, "hero OF the
LASH" as he is quite f;tingly described by
Ingerson in his history OF Iowa and tie re-
bellion, on account OF his brutal whipping
OF Iowa soldiers on the Rio Grande long
after the close of the war, is quite likely to
get more of this investigating business than
he contracted for. Ii turns out that the
post-trader at Fort Lincoln had been Tor
some time cashing Clusters drafts on the
New York Herald. and the evidence Is be-
coming conclusive that he was himself the
correspondent of the Upper Missouri river,
who has been so soundly abusing Hrantr
Belknap and his other superior othcers IN
direct violation of the articles OF war. III
appears TO be conclusive that he bankrupt
ed one of his quartermasters at the gaming
table. which compelled that officer to deser
and flee the country, and that he Is In the
habit Of fleeing the other financial and
bonded officers of his command. which Is
pepitentiary ofiense under the law.

Anew Town With . Bright Future.

The new town in Baker township has
been named Pittsburg, a good cognomen, in
view of its location and future prospects
The immense beds of coal in that vicinity
must give the place a great advantage over
other towns. Manufacturing enterprises
must and will locate there because of the
cheap coal. The town will have not only
a large share of the smelling to do for the
great Joplin lead and zinc district, but there
will be erected there shops for making and
repairing the machinery Used in the lead
region. But sill more important than
these, there is but little doubt that one oil
the most extensive rolling-mills in the ives,
will be located there within . year. There
is glorious future for Pittsburg, and it,
prosperity will help the whole of Crawford
county.-GirurdP Press

No,hing Serious.

The seyerest hail-storn known TO the old

urday evening. For about thirty minutes
it seemed as if something had broken
loose from above" The hailstones came
down with the rattle and dash of young
dornicks, playing smash with all the sky
lights and greenhouses in town. The large
-kylight in Trott's building, over the pho.
tograph gallery, was shivered in a few min
utes, and considerable damage was done by
the rains in the rooms below. The large
sky-lights over Hall & Porter's drug store
Clark's dry goods store, Emick's and Blatt
Der 4 Blakeley's hardware stores "got out
from under" in less time than it takes te
write it. The greenhouse belonging TO Z

slight. Some damage was done to the frui
and growing crops, but We have been una

New Trial Refused.

The motion for a new trial in the case OF

argued before Judge Foster yesterday. An
affidavit in relation TO papers which con.
tanned statements as 10 large amounts OF
surplus grain at Fort Harker was made by
Col. Inman, and on this, which the counsel
for the defendant claimed was important
evidence for their client, and also on the
plea that the verdict of guilty was not sus-
tanned by the evidence, the motion was
urged. Mr.. Clemens, of this city, Mr.. Fen
Ion, and Judge Stillings, made very strong
and able arguments in support OF the mo-
tion, and Mr. Peck, United States Attorney,
against it. Judge Foster refused TO set
aside the verdict or grant new trial SEN

Exonerated.

A few days ago We stated that John 5.
McGrath, assistant postmaster at Peabody,
had been arrested and brought here for al
legged violation o.. the postal laws. We also
stated that not being able TO procure bail
he was in Jail. The latter part was not
true. He was arrested by Mr.. Booth, a
young and rather inexperienced agent. 1t
seems that there is personal local quarrel
at Peabody, and the charges were made by
those opposed to the present postmaster.
Mr.. Booth, when he went there, fell INTO
The hands OF the opponents of the postmas-
ter, and only heard one side OF the story.
The matter was presented TO the grand jury
