The Complainant Missing.

The case of James Beattie, charged
with assault and battery on the person OF
R. II. McKaig, was called for trial in
Commissioner Pratt's court yesterday.
The defendant was on hand, but the
complaining witness was conspicuous only
by his absence. When it became appar-
ent that he didn't intend to show mp, the
court asked that an officer be detailed to
bring him in, and deputy sheriff went
out to strike his trail. AS the hours flew
by the officer got very warm in the collar
and learning that McKaig had gone to
Saltair started out after him. Upon ar
irving at the depot, however, he met the
complainant just returning from the
beach. He was asked why he had abb
scented himself and stated that he was too
busy to attend the trial. A subpoena was
then served on him commanding his
presence on Monday. when another effort
to try the case will be made.

TOWARDS THE EIGHTIES.
Silver Took Another six-Point
Stride Yesterday.
IL TOUCHED SEyENTY-FoUR.
The Big Properties Preparing to Cut
Down Expenses.
They May Continue, but 1t WIN Be on a
fetrenchment Basis-A Better Feel
ing in financial and Min
ing Circles.


The decided stitching in the silver
market has already had beneficial effect
on the local situation. The Anchor, at
Park City. was 10 have been closed yes
tercay, but, in view OF the advance, it
was decided to continue for the present.
The same is true OF the Silver King
group, which was to have been closed to-
day. IL is believed that the course of the
Colorado men in stopping the produc-
ton and the prospect of early legislation
OF favorable character with the prospect
Of the treasury department going into
the market for four and a half millions
on the 9Th instant, have combined
to cause the present advance. 1t
costs great deal OF money to close a
big mine down tight. hence many oper-
ators are not inclined to shut down until
it IS apparent that silver is gone beyond
the hope OF recovery.
Yesterdays exchange quotation was
10. which is the price at which the market
opened MIR. A. F. Holden, of the Old
Jordan & Galena, later in the day received
the following quotations from New York:
London, 1884; New York, 20 to "A. If "a
was reached that was another gain OF SIX
points, or L cents WlJnln Two Guys. Two
more such advances would put silver back
to higher notch than 1t has reached
during the last six months.
MIR. Holden is now more strongly in
clined than ever to await Developments
before closing down the Old Jordan q
Galena. with its force OF 100 men. The
Bullion Beck management have also re-
considered their decision to close down on
the 9Th, and, if the present favorable turn
continues, operations will not be sus-
pended.
BETTER FEELING.
A factor in dispelling the gloom
that had settled down on the business as
well ms the mining interests, is the pros
pect of distribution of thousands oil dol
lars in dividends during the present
month, which will certainly ease the
fina1cial situation and put much money
in circulation Zion's Savings Bank and
Trust company led the procession yester-
day, and Salt Lake can point with pride
To an Institution that even in such times
as these paws semi-annual dividend OF 8
per cent. upon capital OF 100000. The
stockholders received SIG, GOO yesterday,
and the stock is quoted at $500. The
HONS Fire Insurance company and
great number of large concerns will pay
their quarterly dividends between now
and the 18th.
Altogether. the feeling in financial and
mining circles yesterday was stronger and
than it has been for some
days past. 1t is hoped that the
worst is over. and that times will improve
from now on.

RAwLrNs WILL BE IN IT.
Utah'l Delegate VIII Take Part in tn,
Fight for Free Coinage.

Utah'l Delegate Will Take Part in the
Fight for Free Coinage.
Honorable j. L. Rawlins, Utah's dele
gate tp the Fifty-thifd Congress. will be
on desk when the great struggle for free
silyerland financial relief commences on
the 9TH of next month. Although Utah
has nb voice in the framing of national
Legislation of vital concern to her inter-
ests, md will have none until she is
clothed with the powers OF statehood, her
delegate is entitled to all the privileges
accorded other members of the house,
excep. the right to vote.
"Nhat do YOU think will be accom-
plishei at the special session?'' was the
question put to MIR. Rawiins yesterday.
81 believe that the outcome of tie ses-
sion will undoubtedly be legislation fay
orable to silver. do not think the Sher-
man Get will be repealed at once. l look
for a protracted contest. The friends of
silver will no doubt make a fight for the
substitution Of some measure providing
for free coinage and Insist on its enact
ment as a substitute.
s'What position will you take in the
fight?''
Il favor free coinage of course, but do
not care TO commit myself to any definite
proposition until | have taken in the sit
uation as it may exist at Washington. i
think the sentiment in both houses of
Congress is friendly to silver.
stDo you think the president would ap-
prove free coinage bill?'
u coubt whether he would approve
measure providing for unlimited coinage
at the ratio of sixteen to one. think
the ratio will be changed to some extent.
doubt whether the attempt will be made
tc limit the coinage to the American
product. l do not regard that as practl-
cable. and do not think it good policy TO
urge it. The people of the east are not
especially interested In increasing the
price Of silver. and l do not think they
would vote for the free coinage OF Amer
lean silver simply to enhance the value OF
the product OF American mines.
s"phe people of the east are in favor of
any measure looking to the restriction of
the currency. The New York capitalists,
holding largely the credits of the nation,
are in iavor of any diminution of the cir
culation, which tends to appreciate the
value CT their securities.
.'How would a free coinage measure
affect the eastern situation?'
~ dc not think it would aggravate the
situation in the least, although they pre-
dict disaster / think it would have the
opposite effect. The present financial
difficulty, believe. is the result OF pre-
concerted effort of the bankers OF New
York to bring about such condition rs
would dead TO repeal of the Sherman
law, destroy the use of silver as money
and esta blish an exclusive gold standard.
ssIf Congress enacts legislation favor
able toi silver, and it becomes law, it
will tend To convince those people that
further efforts in that direction will be
futile, and that no advantage will accrue
to them by reason of it, and it will bring
about an end 10 our financial troubles -

Walker Bros. & Fyler company have
now on exhibition the finest pair OF young
wild cats ever caught in the west. They
were captured by Mr.. A. A. Sutton and
Mr.. Ben Jacobson aoout seventy five
miles from the henry mountains. They
shot the old cat and caught the little ones
in g tree Having no means of carrying
them, they hit upon the novel plan of
tying up one in each leg of pair OF
pants, and throwing them across horse,
brought them to camp, where they made
a small wire cage. The little fellows are
very fierce and fought like demons before
they were finally secured. They may be
seen playing in one of the large show

Kitchener OF Indiana, one of the wise
men of the G. o. P, who distributed
large chunks of advice among Utah Re-

came interested in some sort of milling
proposition near Ironton, and to carry on
he work secured between SO, 900 and
"a 600 from the Salt Lake Valley Loan &
Trust company on promissory notes. AS
they were not paid, suit was brought
against the parties in the Third district
court. Judgment was confessed and the
plaintiff tried to get possession of the
works, which, however, were held by the
sheriff, whose deputies resisted the at
tachment with a shotgun argument.
Attachments have just been issued for
these officers, ard it is expected that they
will be brought up here in few days.

SOME TAXATION FIGURES.
Salt Lakers Pay About the Same
as Last Year.
SOME COMPARISONS MADE.
The City Reduction Onset by the
County Increase.
City Property Owners Pay the Same and
County Taxpayers Pay $4,000 More
The Railroad, Telegraph and
Telephone Assessments.

''What will our taxes be this year?'' is
the question the Salt Lake property owner
is asking his neighbor. The question of
taxes is always live issue. and The
HERALD presents few figures this morn
ing, taken from the assessment rolls and
tax levies, which show that the property
owners OF the city will this year pay
within very few dollars of the amount
paid last year. Owners of county prop
erty outside of the city are confronted by
IS, 600 increase. which will not bear
very heavily when divided up among
them.
THE CITY DECREASE.
The tax levy Tor the city has been fixed
at five mills, the same rate as last year.
me city valuation last year amounted to
So5, OOo, 700. This year, although the lists
VIII not be fully made up for two weeks,
1t can be safely stated that Mr.. Lynch's
estimate of S44, 100000 is pretty near the
mark. A reduction of Sc, 900 600, at FIVE
mills will mean 3d. 900 less taxes to be
paid by the city property owners into
she city treasury, total of 1920, COO
against S265,000 last year.
A COUNTY INCREASE.
The county assessment will practically
amount to the same as last year, about
500, 900, eco. The levy is 8 mills for county
and county school tax and the territorial
tax and school tax mills, against a
county and county school tax of 4 mills
and territorial and territorial school tax
of mills for last year, making total of
levy OF 10 mills this year against mills
Tor last year.
Thus, 1000 more will be paid in
county and territorialy tax than last year,
and S45 900 less in city taxes, owing to the
decrease in the city valuation.
Taking the two together, will make
s., 900 more to be paid by the public in
taxes this year than last or S72O, GOO, as
against S715, 200.
But the city property owners own S44, :
goo, GOO worth of the $50 .OOO, eco assessed
to the county, and therefore pay forty
four fiftieths OF the county taxes. Hence
they will pay S44, 900 OF the $50, 900 in
crease in the county taxes, which comes
within 81 COO of the S45, 900 decrease in
city taxes. The remainder of the county
increase, sc, 600 will be paid by the own
ers OF property outside of the city.
OF course this does not take into ac
count the special taxes that may be levied
by the city council.
