that Utah was one of the richest mineral
states in the union and would some day
rival Colorado as a producer of the
precious metals. at will be a wonderful
country as soon as they get railroad facili-
ties,'' he continued, there are great fields
of sulphur, alum, copper, and almost every
other variety Of mineral to be found there
and it is only awaiting development. The
Mormons are not very good minsrs, but,
other people will swarm in there as soon as

stealing cases are set for Monday next in

again on the ground and it is reported that
he is an excellent all around fellow in
cases of this character. The result will be
watched with more than ordinary interest.
1t is expected that Immediately follow
ing the cattle stealing cases the case of
Editor Bonny, of the Idaho Falls Times, who
was held over by Probate Judge Sturns
for alleged criminal libel upon Clerk of
Court Patrie, will be called.

court for instructions. From the nature
of their inquiries of the court it is be-
lieved they are divided between mar
slaug fer and acquittal, with the chances
in favor of the latter.

VATICAN EXPENSES.
The Pope has Reduced a Number
of Appointments.
His Holiness is Much Depressed on Account of
the Losses Experienced by the Administra-
ton of st. Peters Pence

ROME, June 20.-The Pope has reduced a
number of appointments and expenses at
the Vatican. He is much depressed on ac-
count of the losses experienced by the ad-
ministration of St. Peters pence. These
losses are due to the economical crisis at
Rome. The Vatican has lost large part
of its funds in the Banco di
Roma and other Italian societies. Moreover
large sums have been lent to several Roman
princes, Borghesi, Ghabrieli. and Boncom-
pagni, and, as these have themselves suf-
fered great losses, the holy see is unable
at present TO realize on the investments. a
statement that the losses are due to bource
speculations is unfounded, but the admin
istration of the Vatican funds have Ger
tainly displayed want of practical business
capacity.
