MAKING MANY STRIKES.
Encouraging Reports Being Receiv-
ed From MarysyaIe.


Good reports continue to come from
Marysvale district and within the past
few weeks some very rich strikes have
been made The district is rapidly
coming to the front as a gold producer,
and with its three mills in full opera
ton Will do much to swell the 1894 out
put of the yellow metal. 1t is under
stood that the Rio Grande Western is
again locking IL the direction of Mount
Badly and it is highly proba bic that
the Marysvale extension, which is so
much needed by the people of Sewer
and Garfield counties and which would
be great source of revenue to the
western system. will be decided upon in
the near future. The company has al
ready spent a great deal of money in
grades south of Salina, the present ter
minus, and the necessary expenditure
10 complete the road for the COMPARE
lively short distance south would be as
nothing to the Western compared to the
revenues which would at once begin to
flow in.
One of the most recent strikes is that
Of the district is the SEWER one of the
properties Of the Monarch Mining COM
pany, which is a strictly Salt Lake cor
poration. This company has for some
time past been engaged in running a
tunnel into the side of the mountain
ore body which was known TO exist
Some days ago the tunnel cut into a
great breast of very high grade gold
ore and although the development pro-
gresSed for q number of feet the ore
body gave no signs of ending 1t is now
proposed by the company to make eX-
tensive cross-cuttngs and determine
just what there is in reach In the
event of these further developments re-
Sulting satisfactorily, which the men,
bers Of the company feel certain will
be the case, it is very probable that a
cyanide mill will be placed upon the
property. Although no mill tests has
yet been made the indications are that
1t will require the cyanide process to
successfully treat the ore taken from
the Nandercooll.
BY heavy ODDS the. greatest producer
of the district is the Sewer. One of the
properties of the Sewer Mining and
Milling company. The company's mill
is now running very smoothly and
making regular shipments of gold bars.
General Manager Lammersdorf is now
IN the city, and yesterday stated to
Herald reporter that now the water
problem had been solved everything at
the mill is in the very best f shape
The mine is looking we'll and IN conse-
quence Mr.. Lammersdorf and The other
stockholders are feelins very iubi1ant
over the outlook. The gentleman
brought up a small gold bar and 9th
ers are to follow within The next few
days. The settlement of the wafer
problem was effected by means of tanks
which collect the water from the tail
ings and the mill therefore uses and re-
uses the water first taken In.
In common with the Sewer the other
properties in the district are doing ey-
fremely well and the prospects for the
camp are very bright

LACK OF MONEY BORROWERS.
Eastern Capitalists and Corporations
Registering Healthy Kicks.


Those eastern individuals and cor
porations which have placed their sur
plus capital subject to the orders of
local people for loaning purposes are
registering complaints long deep and
loud because of the failure of their
agents in distributing the money among
the property owners. Notwithstanding
the fact that there are many hundred
thousands of dollars now held in this
city awaiting takers but comparatively
few loans are being made and those
which are recorded invariably come in
for small amounts. This is not because
the rates of interest are high. for the
owners of the money are willing to loan
at from per cent to s per cent on in
side real estate. The real reason for
the scarcity of borrowers is the desire
of the people 20 keep out of debt as
much as possible for fear that when
the notes expire they will not be in a
y position TO take the paper up, by the
payment of the principal and interest.
The monied people of the east who are
sending their cash west for mortgage
investments will always decline to enter
any enterprise, no matter what the
glowing prospects for good returns are,
and always hold out for gilt edged Sc
curity before letting go of their capital
il is true they are not now nearly so
particular as formerly and sometimes
accept property which. is not considered
such prime possessions as is usually
demanded One New York and Boston
corporation has just placed $1,000 900
with local banker FOR investment in
mortgages on Salt Lake real estate
This money Is being offered at rates
.F&hick should suit any borrower.

Pushing the smeIter Construction.

General Manager Williams, of the
hex syndicate, arrived from the south
last evening and was soon up to his
ears in correspondence, which had
been somewhat neglected during his
absence from the city. He reports
good progress being made at the smell
ter above bennington. The grading is
nearly completed and a number of the
buildings are almost ready for occu-
pancy. It is expected that the Union
Pacific will Immediately connect the
site of the works with the railroad by
building the half mile spur. AT the
mines the force of men is taking out
a great deal of good ore, which is be-
ing stored ready for shipment to the
smelter as soon as the railroad connec-
tons are made. Colonel Posey, one of
the principal members of the syndicate,
is now in the city for the purpose of
comforting with Mr.. Williams.

BUY STATE STREET PROPERTY.
Coop Wagon and Machine Company
Directors So Decide.

The Cooperative Wagon and Ma
chine company has decided to close
the negotiations which have been on
for some time looking to the purchase
of the piece of property on State street,
just below that now occupied by the
company. The property has a front
footage Of forty feet on State and runs
back to Plum alley, and it is the in
tention of the company to in the near
future, providing certain results are
favorable, to erect a handsome build
ing thereon. Within the next few DAYS
the deeds to the property will be drawn
up and the formal transfer be made.

Shaft Nearly Completed.

Superintendent Kerns, of the Silver
King, was in the city yesterday on
special business, and made the Cullen
his headquarters In a brief CONVEX
sation he stated that the third COM
partment of the shaft in the mine is
now nearly completed, and that short
ly after the first of the month the COM
pany will again be raising ore. The
men now engaged in making the i'm
provements to the shaft are determin-
ed to earn the bonus for completing the
work before the 10th of October. 1t is
anticipated that there will be a con-
siderable increase in the dividends of
the company with the completion of
the shaft and the resumption of ore
shipments.

Created a Deal of Amusement.

The effort of contemporary to work
simple and innocent inquiry received
from the New York Life Insurance
company, the purchaser Of the last
issue of bonds, relative to the bonded
indebtedness of the city and the tax
levy for the year, fell very fiat, for an
investigation of the subject revealed
the fact that the levy is all right and
made in perfect accord with the pro-
visions Of the statutes governing such
matters. The statements contained in
the article, purporting to come from
the recorder, were for the first time
made known to that gentleman through
perusal Of the article in question
On Monday afternoon the local agents
of the New York Life received an in
quiry from their house relative to the
status Of the city in the way of bonds
and tax levy, and asking whether or
not the issue and levy were made under
the charter. The dispatch was given
to the recorder with the request that
he secure an answer from the mayor
and city attorney. The mayor pointed
out the fact that the special acts Of
Congress and Of the legislature changed
the methods in vogue under the char
ter in the matter of bonds and levy
The answer Of the attorney, wired last
night to New York at the request of
the company, was to the effect that the
increase of the limit of bonded indebt-
edness was authorized by the legisla-
ture on February 26, 1894, in pursuance
of an act of Congress, and the power
of the city council to levy taxes was
changed by the act of March 10, 1892,
which repealed all acts or parts of acts
not in conformity with its provisions.
The recorder had no opinion to give,
Notwithstanding the assertions of the
paper to the contrary. sOn Monday
evening he stated the case to the re-
porters, but requested that nothing be
said on the matter, pending the receipt
of the written opinion of the attorney.

Power Company Meeting.

The board of directors of the Pioneer
Power company was in session yester-
day, Messrs. Patton and Bannister, Of
Ogden, coming down to attend. The
announcement was made that the work
of construction at the company's power

portance but no special public interest
received attention, but the company

More Mutton Going East.

Another shipment of Utah mutton
was made yesterday from Thistle, on
the Rio Grande Western. 1t consisted
of train load of fat wethers for the
Chicago market, the consignment being
made up of 1900 head, recently pur-
chased in the vicinity of Thistle by
Messrs. E. M. Gibson, of Nebraska,
and Joseph Kerr, of this territory. The
gentlemen paid 81 fer the mutton, and
expect to reach the eastern market
with their shipment in such good shape
that they can command good prices.
Reports received from the east are to
the effect that good fat mutton are
bringing prices which cannot be rea-
sonably complained Of

May Not Sell the propertx.

/ 1t is now said that the treasurer has
not the power or authority to sell at
public auction the property on West
Second South street between Sixth
West and the river. upon which the
special taxes for the construction of
sidewalks are delinquent. The reason
given for this statement is that the
provisions of the ordinance governing
the sale of property upon which the
taxes are delinquent have not been
complied with, the council not having
sat as board of equalization and the
recorder not having certified to the as
sessment. There are quite a number
of the property owners on the street
who are delinquent and it is very prob
able that if payment is pressed by
means of the sales at auction the aid
of the courts may be invoked. The date
of the advertisement of the property
has not yet been announced.

Investigating the Apponyi Deal.

The expert who is working on the
books and accounts of the joint city
and county building committee, has
just finished the investigation into the
many matters in connection with the
hole in the ground on the city hall cor
ner. He is preparing detailed and
very exhaustive report to the mem
berS of the finance committee
on the results of his researches. This
report is to cover every transaction of

people

TAXES ARE ROLLING IN.
1t is the Poor People who Are Max
ing Early Payments.

County Collector Leonard reports
that the taxes for this year are rolling
into his office in a steady stream of
considerable magnitude. The average
daily collections are $500 and some
days this amount is more than doubled.
As general rule it is the poor people
who are paying their taxes so promptly.
They have saveds up the necessary
amount with which to cancel this obli-
cation and rather than risk spending
the cash for something else they are
rushing to the office of the collector
and requesting the receipt of their
notices. The country people are also
paying very promptly this year and
present indications point to the collec
ton of large percentage of the taxes
for 1894 Leonard made a good record
last year but he says he is going to
crack, if not break, all previous records.

Secured n New Agent.

AS result Of the recent Withdrawal
or rather ejectment-of the North
western National Insurance company
of Milwaukee, from the Pacific Insur
ance union, Messrs. Whittemore &
Cooke, the former local agents, were
forced to either give up the company

former course. The agency of the

B. G. Raybould. 1t will be remembered
that the company was thrown out of
the union for paying excessive pre-
miums, and other infringements of the

We anchored littic sloop about so feet
or from the wreck, and when all was
ready ! went down. When I got below
into the boiler room, I saw looking out at
mo from one Of the furnaces two eyes ns
big rs saucers, stepped to ono side, and
out shot huge shark. As he darted past
mo he gave me a Zip with his tail and
knocked me 10 feet. That knock was not,
however, as bad as 1t may seem, for it's
easier TO move objects under water than
above. myself could easily shove man
10 feet under water.
Divers often encounter sharks, and huge
fellows they seem too, But wo don't take
much stock in them. The diver Is usually
moving about, the escape valve gives a
shrin whistling sound, and my experience
Is that sharks, like other large fish, are
scared half out Of their wits when we
divers appear upon the scene. --Scribner'
