The Chicago. Burlington and Quincy
Strike - Another Accident Due to the
Troubie-Expenses Of the Crown Princes
IlIness-Short Telegrams

PITTsBuRG, February 29.-The agents
OF the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
system, II appears, have been successful
in securing a number Of engineers and
fremen in the East This morning a
carload Of fifty men passed through the
city e,s route to Chicago to take the places
Of the strikers. The party was In charge
OF a well.dresscd man, who refused to
give his name, but admitted that the men
we're going TO Chicago, TO work on the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy road
As far as he knew, they were not knights
Of Labor. although members Of that or
ganization might be found in the party.
The report that a number Of engineers
would arrive from New York on their
way West was circulated last night, and
when the train came in this morning
delegation OF the Brotherhood was on
hand to greet them, but no attempt was
made TO molest the new men or interfere
with them in any manner. The train
left for Chicago at 7:45 this morning,
and will arrive in that city tonight T..
B Barry, member OF the Executive
Bo,rd OF the Knights Of Labor, is in the
city.
A dispatch from Chicago says Asss-
tant General Manager Williams was at
his Office al o'clock waiting to hear
from the trains which were scattered at
different points along the road yesterday
The fast mail which left Chicago al 3
o'clock Yesterday afternoon had not been
heard from up to 8 o'clock. II is thought
the train IL proceeding on its journey to
Council Bluffs without interruption, as
had there been any delay the company
would have been notified OF the fact All
was quiet around Burlington yards early
this morning, and from Van Buren, to
Twelfth streets had but little TO do. AT
z o'clock the DOwnCrs' Grove accOmmo-
dalton train, fifteen minutes late, pulled
into the Union depot. The Downers'
Grove train was followed fifteen minutes
later by another train from the same
suburb. The last train was crowded with
suburbanites.
Chief Arthur OF the Brotherhood Of
locomotive Engineers, says that old men
are likely 10 be discharged and cheaper
men put on In their places under the ex-
listing system. He strongly upheld the
mileage system asked for, and declared
the trip. pay system was decidedly unfair.
"Tll tell you another reason why Mr.
Stones argument is misleading" he went
on. ut represents that we struck be-
cause our propositions were refused, a
If we struck because we could not get
passes for our families and such things.
Now, the fact l. those propositions were
no; discussed at all. We only got down

All passenger engineers running four
whee! connected engines shall receive 81
cents per mile; six-wheel connected ell
gines, $40 cents per mile We offered
to concede the six.wheel engine part.
But the company refused the entire
thing. We stuck fast there, and never
got as far as considering any of the other
propositions AS said, we were pre-
pared to concede some Of them"

That Alleged Gold Find.

For the last ten days all sorts of wild
rumors have been ahoat concerning a
rich discovery OF gold-bearing rock at
point near Davis ranch on the east side
of Provo river above Heber City and
about twelve miles from Park City.
The excitement reached climax the
first of the week when hundreds OF old
prospectors and other curious persons
MED away to the alleged new Ophir,
wnere considerable locating. just be-
cause it was all the rage, was done. The
originators If the excitement Buchanan
and White. of the Call, and William
Bombard, who is lately from the C9ur
d'AIene country, claim that they
nave had assays from groupings
along the ledge which showed
as high as 1920 in gold to the
ton. They say that their attention
was called to the place last summer
and that their curiosity after several
trials resulted as above stated, about
ten days ago. Over fifty locations have
been made, and last Sunday the old
district of Elk Horn was recognized
and w. D. Owens elected recorder.
This section was quite thoroughly pros
pected seven or eight years ago and

disgust. The country along where the
stampede conferred is slightly mineral

any regular Lodges Of pay rock. One
thing about all this good enthusiasm
| is that none but the prime movers have
| found anything that would assay any
more than carbonate OF assessments.
probabilities and pyrites of iron, and
these most enthusiastic gentlemen get
returns as high as $500 in gold. How
| is it2 Admitting that the find is genu-
| inc the rock will not pay to work as it
shows up now, because it is in the
form of sulphurets aud not free gold
The excitement was started too early,
considering the great depth of snow
over there. The opinion Of the COM
! munlty. almost without exception
is that the alleged discovery is sell and
that some one is trying TO work q
sucker game" At any rate there are
some conflicting stories about the fine
i and the discrepancies between the as
savers that need satisfactory explana-
tion-something to take away the salty
taste. However. everyone wishes tha
that there may be genuine merit in thu
discovery, but all have good reason Il

FINANCE AND MINING.

News From the M1nes-The Cold tx

Hanauer Impertattons.

Business has been fairly satisfactory
during the week just closed. Sales have
been very heavy with the wholesale
houses, and retailers report fair busi-
ness. Remittances from the country
merchants come in slowly. however,
and they are not as heavy as
might be wished for-and as might rea-
sonably be expected. Nothing OF a
special nature has transpired In bust
ness circles during the week.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1888-04-01

The near approach of the semi-an-
nual Conference causes merchants OF
all classes to assume pleasing air, and
there can be little doubt but the present
week will prove to be the liveliest Of the
current year. A heavy attendance Il
our country friends is looked for, and
and as the railways have been very
beraI in the matter of rates, they will
surely reap golden reward.
