IN MINING CIRCLES.
ORE AND BULLION OUTPUT FOR
THE PAST WEEK.
A Decrease of Twenty Thousand Dol
Iars-The Mammoth MilI CompIet-
ed-GeneraI Mining Notes.

There has been very little change in
the mining situation during TIE past
week, except slight decrease in the
amount of output both in ores and
bullion. A very unsettled feeling is
noticeable in mining circles and with
few exceptions the operators are very
blue The various mining companies
will issue their annual reports within
the next week and it it stated on the
authority of well posted financial
and mining man that the total produc-
ton Of the territory will be S4,000,000
less than for 1892, which gave grand
total of S16,O00,0OO. This decrease is
due, in measure, of course, to the low
price of the metals, but there has also
been a. perceptble decrease in the
amount of production. In many camps
there has been very heavy falling
off, while some few have held their
own.
The ore and bullion receipts and
shipments for the week ending last
night show a decrease of about $20,-
900 over the total for the six days
previous, being but $173,2S9. The sum-
mary is as follows:

IN HANDCUFF CIRCLES.
A CoLoRED MAN ARRESTED ON THE
CHARGE OF RAPE.
The Crime a Horrible One, If the
Victims story is True-A Crank
Cinched.

James Nicholson, aged rs, colIee
eoIored negro. was arrested last night
by Officer Leavitt and opposite his
name on the register appears the
charge of rape. The alleged victim
of the mans lust was Lena Nelson,
young woman who is employed in the
dining room of the Manitou hotel. The
crime was most terrible one. if the
story of the woman is absolutely cor
rect.
Miss Nelson came to Salt Lake but
recently from the southern part Of the
territory and is an unsophisticated
Scandinavian girl. She secured EN-
ployment at the Manitou but desired
to room outside the hotel. Yesterday
she was in search of furnished rooms
and having been told that good quar-
ters would be found by her on the
east side of West Temple street be-
tween South Temple and First South,
made visit to that locality last even
ing shortly after o'clock. She enter
ed one of the blocks at the entrance
of which is displayed the sign 'furn-
ished rooms" and passed up the stair
way in search of the people in charge.
Knocking at the door she received an
invitation to enter and upon doing so
was confronted by burly negro who
without warning grasped her by the
throat and threw her upon the bed
He then outraged her, nothwithstand-
ing her struggles to escape. After ac-
complishing his purpose the negro al
lowed his victim to escape, with the
threat that if she told he would kill
her.
Miss Nelson made her way down the
stairs and out on to the street with
difficulty and went in search of an
officer, to whom she could tell of the
outrage which had been committed
upon her. Patrolman Leavitt was the
first officer whom she met. and to him
the young woman told of the dastardly
crime She was greatly agitated and
with difficulty controlled herself during
the recital of her wrongs. Knowing
that the arrest of the negro never could
be made without the display of con-
siderable strategy, Leavitt told the
young woman to go back to the room
and knock for admittance. To any in
quiry as to who was there, she was to
answer, 1.-THE woman who was here a
short time ago. The plan worked to
a charm. and when the negro opened
the door Leavitt slipped in and cap
tured his man. Nicholson attempted
to make an escape, but was promptly
covered with the officers gun
AT the station Nicholson made no
denial of having committed an offense
under the Edmunds-Tucker act with
Miss Nelson, but claimed that it was
with her consent. He further claimed
that it was not the first time he and
the young woman had been intimate.
| The whole matter will be carefully
investigated in the police court on
! Tuesday.

Womans club met for the last time
this year. Miss May Criston was the
guest of the day. She had prepared a
most interesting paper on 1.-THE Red
Cross Movement" She told Of its
birth, growth, of its military discipline,
it's international character, and gave
a most graphic description of its work
in times of peace and times of war.
She paid to Clara Barton, q nigh
tribute, which was echoed by all.
Incidentally she spoke of the display
at the Worlds fair, and Of the work
done by the Columbian Emergency
hospital Here about 1880 patients
were cared for during the fair, an
average of about one hundred and
twenty patients per day. During the
whole time there were but twenty
three deaths. Certainly remarkable
record.
After the paper was finished, an
informal discussion was entered into,
Mrs. Richards adding some personal
"reminiscences, of Miss Barton that
were very pleasant. Mrs. Richards
had the good fortune to spend winter
in Washington, and to be a guest of
the same hotel where Miss Barton was
domiciled
One of the memebers gave a
description of the New York relief
train, and of Miss Barton's work in the
south. caring for the southern suf-
ferers, after the terrible cyclone had
swept the country.

arrest of March Mckinney on the com
plant of NJ. Meears, of Lewiston, on
the charge with assault with intent to
commit murder. The complaint charges
that on Dec. IS, March Mckinney, of
Cedar Fork, assaulted with a knife
with intent to murder at Lewiston, in
Tooele county, one John Lewis. The
warrant was placed in the hands of
Deputy Marshal Cummock, who start
ed out yesterday morning for Lewis
ton and brought in the man last night
at o'clock. The facts were that Nc
Kinney and Lewis were engaged in a
game Of cards in a saloon at Lewiston
when quarrel arose over the stakes
and Mckinney, it is charged, stabbed
Lewis in the left temple with a clasp
knife. The blade broke off, leaving a,
portion sticking in the wound. The
piece of blade was removed and the
wound dressed. The man was brought
to Salt Lake and taken to st. Marks
hospital. The physicians there, after
making an examination, came to the
conclusion that the man could not re-
cover and although everything posi-
BILE was done he died yesterday after
noon. The charge against Mckinney
will doubtless now be changed to muir
der Mckinney denies that he did the
stabbing. He will have a preliminary
examination before Commissioner
Pratt on Tuesday, in the meantime he
is in the penitentiary.

SHE WANTS HER CHILD.
Ars. Meyers Applies for a Writ of
Habeas Corr $.

Habeas Corr IS.
Mrs. Frank Meyers made application
before Judge Bartch yesterday for a
writ of habeas corpus for the posses
sion of her son Robert. a boy of 4
years, who is now and has been living
with Mr.. and Mrs. John Arnold since
he was an infant.
The facts, which were fully ventil-

up in the police court last week, are
that the mother gave the child to the
Arnolds when he was an infant and
that they have taken care of him ever
since as their own. The mother now

The Arnolds are very much attached
to the boy and feel that they have a
right to keep him.
The writ was made returnable on

GOOD ADVICE.
Fire Insurance in Hard Times.

During periods Of depression the property
owner can least afford TO run his own risk OF
fire. During prosperous days hs can, with
energy, recupeTate his fortunes but ID hard
times, not. Is IL consistent for the boatman to
carry ife-preservers with bin when the sea is
calm, and he might, possibly, swim ashore.
and then dispense with them when the waves
are angry because, fors0Oth, they add some-
what to the weight to be carried, and make IL
harder rowing2 The value OF both the life
preserver and OF the fire insurance policy is
