II Il
Sharp Competition and the Advan-
tage to Miners.

Salt Lake Tribune.
For several months past the small lead
ore producers of Utah have been reapins
the advantages of a sharp competition In
the ore market for their products. AT
Pueblo, Colorado, Mr.. Gust, formerly q
smelter of Utah, has reduction works OF q
daily capacity of 500 tons of ore. The
Omaha Reduction Works are equally
large, and when Colorado's ore produc.
tlon fell off the Pueblo gentleman began
reaching out for ore. His agents were
sent to Mexico, New Mexico, Utah,
Nevada and Idaho. His Utah agent
came here last winter and spent two
months In looking over the field. Then
he dipped in on q fair lot of ore, paying
40 cents per ton more for 1t than had
been offered by the home buyers or the
Omaha agent. The good work has been
kept up from day to day until the present
time, and the result is, producers are get
ting 50 more per ton for their ores than
prior to the time the Pueblo man hit the
market; and that too over and above the
enhanced price Of lead. 1t has been re.
ported that Mr.. Gulst had $3.50, 900 be-
hind his bull movement In the ore mar
kets OF the West, and that Of this amount
$500, 600 had already been sunk.
THE OMAHA AGENT
was seen yesterday and denied that
there was any fight between his and the
Pueblo company. He admitted, how.
ever, that there wss a sharp composition
which would probably last until some
b-dy went broke. The effect on the
Utah emelters was demorallzlng.
THE PUEBLO AGENT
was also seen, and denied that any speo-
ial fund was behind him in his work. He
was paying no more than he had to in
order to get the ores, and anybody else
TO get them would have to pay more for
them than his company could afford to
and make it pay. When he came here
one close corporation sort of q combi.
nation had things all their own way, and
1t was q soft snap for them, but not 30
soft for the producers. The competition
had been carried into Wood River and
would be into Montana. When the
Pueblo Company reached the limit of
what 1t could afford to give, the competi-
ton would probably end. 1t was to be
borne In mind, however, that works of
Pueblo Company could treat the vast
of ores and by virtue of that fact,
at | ass expense. The Pueblo agent, when
he found he was being interviewed, closed
up like a clam out of water, and only |
bis shell to remark that If there
anything In the paper there would
be a dead reporter. Everybody who has
mine that will produce q Little ore,
to send 1t down now while lead Is
high and the war gees on. Competition
between a few perstns or concerns gener-
ally ends in a pool, the bulwark of
monopolies, the refuge of the rich, whers
the poor producer never CATS.

a Steamer Sinks in the Channel
One Life Lost.


PARKERsBURG, w. v, Nov. 27.-Steamer
Emma Graham, which left Pittsburg We'd
nesday evening last, bound for Cincinnati
with numerous passengers on board, sunk in
the Ohio river at Ripley landing near this
place at O'Clock last night. In swinging
into the the landing the Graham struck .the
large barge filed with slaves. The barge
was made fast to the landing with no dam
ger signals displayed. The steamer struck
on her starboard side with terrific force over
turning everything on board. The barge
was torn loose and floated off down the
stream. The officers of the Graham not
knowing the extent of the injury to their
boat made an effort to catch the barge, but
the Graham began to sink. The captain
then tried to beach the steamer but the hold
filled with water so rapidly that he found it
impossible to do so and she sunk in the mid
die of she channel in twenty feet of water
All was now excitement ON board The
woman and children shrieking rushed fran
tically about The men were greatly excited
in their efforts to save their families and
themselves Captain Cooper and Clerk Sla-
vim stood manfully at their posts and it was
by their GOODNESS and their bravery that fear
full loss of life was prevented, as many in
their excitement were about to jump into the
icy cold stream. Several of the deck hands
and deck passenffers were swept overheard
into the swift running water. The tiremen
and second mate Pendleton, caught the stage
plank and chung to it till the fireman Cooper
climbed upon one end when it turned over,
throwing its four occupants again into the
river Their heartrending cries for help at
tracted attention from the parties on shore
who put out in skiffs and rescued three of
them. Mr. Cooper gave one long cry ''for
Gods sake save" and sank to the bottom.
After an hours hard work all who were yet
alive were taken to the neighboring houses
their comfort. Fireman Cooper is as yet the
only one positively known to be lost, but it
is supposed that several more of the deck
hande met with similar fate, as they are
still missing All the passengers swere

A Portland Brig in Trouble on the
New Jersey Coast.

NEW YORK. Nov. 27-Today's Herald
says that the brig Matte B. Russell Of Port
land was sighted thirty miles off Absecom,
in distress The brig was bound from Phila-
delphia for Portland, and was disabled in
the storm on Monday night From Long
Branch in the morning an exciting scene was
witnessed. When day broke the brig was
out at sea. Her maintopmast was gone and
her foremast was broken off a few feet from
the deck. 1t was evident that she was be-
ginning to be waterlogged or that her cargo
had shifted. She had suffered more from
the heavy weather. Presently tugboat
was seen to go up to her, and to twice at
tempt to take her in tow. Each time the
hawser parted, and then the tug was seen to
steam away, apparently leaving the brig to
her fate. Slowly she drifted southwark, and
at last passed out of sight. 1t was feared
then that she would go ashore on Barnegat
Shoals.
The tugboat which made this vain attempt
to save the brig was the G. Ell. Raymond.
She got back into this port later in the day,
and her captain made report about the
Matte B. Russell. He sighted her first about

at once went to her assistance. A hawser
was passed on board and the Raymond
started for this port with the brig in tow.
But the wind had something to say in the
matter 1t was blowing hard when they
started, but half an hour later the wind reach
ed the violence of gale, and what with the
wind and the sea the hawser parted; Sec

port to avoid the rising storm. The mas
ter of the tugboat offered to take off
the crew of the Russell, but Capt Midas
pluckily declared that he would stand
by his vessel, and just as pluckily his men
declared that they would stand by him. 1t
was thought by the captain of the
Raymond that the brig would at
tempt to make Delaware Breakwater
The brig was next seen off Ashbury Park,
about three miles out at sea, and still flying
distress signals. At four o'clock in the af
ternoon she drifted out of sight to the south

She Describes How Her Fathers
Murder was Accomplished.

NLwPoRT r. l., Nov 27.-The Burton
murder case came up III court today and
Emma Burton, who made the confession
about her fathers murder, was called
for examination, her physical condi-
tion making it necessary to obtain her
statement as quickly as possible She was
very weak and required the support of her
friends. Mr.. and Mrs. Dorsey, the prison
ers, were present. The examination lasted
about two hours, and the court room was
before the murder Dorsey had told her that
he would fix her father. On the day before
the shooting Dorsey told her that the sooner
he did it the better She had seen Dorsey
with revolver before that time, he saying
that he intended to kill her father with it.
He asked her if he hadn't better do it in the
morning when he could see better She re-
piled, "Oh yeS" On the morning of the
murder he asked where her father was. She
told him he was eating his breakfast. Dor
said he would do it then and told Emma to
go down to the parlor and watch, which she
did She heard the first shot, a fall, and
then second shot. She ran in and asked if
her father was dead Dorsey said he didn't
know; he had nothing in his hand then
Maria Dorsey went to Mrs. Fraser's. She
was in the yard and Maria got her to, go into
the house so that she wouldn't hear the shot,
Dorsey afterwards expressed his sorrow at
having committed the deed and all of them
felt the same way. Her father had done
nothing for which the witness wanted him
killed. She told the people that her father
had shot himself because she knew she was
as much to blame as any one. She sent for
the officers to unburden her mind, for the
secret was killing her by inches and she
could stand it no longer. Nc one told her to
send for the officers. Dorsey showed no
signs of anger on the morning of the shoot
ing. The case was continued until next
Tuesday. The examination was severe
strain upon the witness.

Thanksgiving at the Jail.

To the Editor 0fthe Press:
While the people at their homes through
out the land are feasting from their bounti-
fully supplied tables, we toat the jail are
faring sumptuously, having been, through
the kindness of Sheriff True furnished with
first-class dinner in every sense of the
word.
Added to this the warden, Norman True,
has granted all, the freedom of the entire
Jail and to pass through the several corridors
and note the smile upon each face and the
different groups engaged in pleasant CONVEX
sation one can but conclude that Sheriff
True's adopted family is very far from being
the most unhappy in the land. All seem to
have forgotten for the time being that they
are shut out from house comforts and the
influence of loved ones.
While we know and understand fully the
purpose for which the day has been set aside
and render thanks to the great giver of all
good and perfect gifts | am sure the senti-
ment of all is that our heartfelt thanks are
also due the sheriff and warden for their
manifest generosity and kindness.
