President Green, of the Copper Plant,

Local Portland Cement Company
Soldiers Paid Of-SiIver Still
Dropping.

Negotiations are now on between the
Daly-West Mining company and the
Crescent Mining company looking to
the leasing of the mill of the latter to
the owners of the Daly-West. Should
these negotiations never reach sue
cessful issue Park City will get an
other concentrating plant yet this year.
This was the announcement made yes
terday in mining circles by one of the
interested parties. The Daly-West peo-
pie are very DESTROYS of treating their
own ore, this desire having been made
even more acute by the recent discov-
cries made in the mine. A full force of
men has been employed on the prop
erty since the sixty days close down
during the summer, and it is the inten-
ton to take out not less than $50 tons
of ore daily as soon as the necessary
mill arrangements have been made.
Should the company decide to put in its
own plant the construction will COM
mence in the very near future, the
plant to be of $50 tons capacity.
For the purpose of learning just what
is the scope of the improvements and
changes contemplated by the company
a Herald reporter yesterday interview
ed j. ]. DAILY, one of the principal own
ers, and that gentleman confirmed the
report which had been circulated re-
garding the mill proposition. Within
a comparatively short time it will be
determined whether or not the com,
pany will lease the Crescent plant, and
should the negotiations fall to the
ground a mill will be erected by the
Daly-West people. Speaking of the
recent discoveries in the property Mr..
DAILY stated that the ore bodies are ex-
ceptionally large and very rich. Not
withstanding the opinion to the con-
trary the mine has been worked stead
lily since the resumption last summer.
In common with the other interested
parties Mr.. Daily feels well pleased with
the showing being made by the mine.

Councilman Newell was the only abb
sentee from the regular meeting of the
city council last evening. The session
was, as usual, a protracted one, it be-
ing nearly midnight before an adjourn
ment was taken.
The amount of actual business done
was small, a great deal of time being
consumed in discussing what Council:
man Young called the councils night
mare the joint city and county build
ing. The debate grew out of a resolu-
ton offered by O'Meara providing for
the appointment of a special committee
find out where they were att The
only information elected was that it
would take $4,000 to complete the
structure, but OMeara said there was
nothing new in that, as they had been
told for the last six months that $4,000
would finish it. The matter was tenn
porarily dropped by the passing of a
resolution requiring the finance COM
mittee with Mr.. Watson associated, to
audit the accounts and make a full
statement to the council as soon as
possible. The cessation was only tenn
porary, however, as the discussion was
renewed and the same ground covered
again when the bills came up ON a
recommendation of the joint committee
that the amounts be placed or the ap-
preparation list.
Between times the council found time
to adopt a recommendation of the
board of public works 10 purchase a
strip of land forty rods long and one
rod wide alongside the gravity sewer
from Folsom's addition ID the Hot
Springs at $3.50 per rod.

oLEAR1NGs JUMPING HIGHER.
This Years Total VIII BE Creates
Than That of Inst.

Manager Hawley, of the clearing
house, yesterday balanced his books for
the period between the 31st day of De-
lcember of last year and September Is,
for the purpose of determining the to-
tai clearings Of the associated banks of
this city during that time. He was
Iagreeably surprised to learn that the
total is but $3,SOO,O00 less than for the
whole of the period of last year, which
lis considered a splendid record. 1t is
now thought that the years clearings
will be considerably greater than those
of last year, as they are now climbing
up at an average rate of rs per cent
higher than last year. During the next
three months and half the increase
Should be so marked that the total will
show a great increase over that of the
year previous.
This steady increase in the clearings
lof the city speaks volumes for it's fin
Iancial standing and betokens the. pres
Ience of much improved condition of
business. All of the banks show
healthy increase in all branches of
trade, and while the financial men are
not able to single out any one cause
which is contributing so materially to
the upward tendency they do know that
the Improvement is general, marking
revival long looked for.

Company of Pennsylvania, one of the
great corporations which has been
steadily putting money into the future
state of Utah. Mr.. Kibie has just ar
rived from the home office in Philadel-
phia and will be in the city several
days, making his headquarters at the
office of Conway & Donnellan, local
agents of the company. He is here for
the purpose of inspecting the securities
held by his company on loans, this be-
ing his annual inspection tour In
further conversation the gentleman
stated that the tide of eastern capital
in search for investment would I'M
doubleday roll toward the future state,
for at present the securities of this
territory are looked upon as first class
in every eastern market. 1t would be
no trick at all to dispose of 5000, 600
worth of the better class daily in
alone. There is plenty of
idle money in the east now and TIE
rates of interest are extremely low. 1t

The Utah Portland Cement company
has just completed the burning of its
second and best kiln of its product and
yesterday made toF'.la request upon
the city. engineer TO select samples of
the cement and subject them to the
severest tests at his command, for the
purpose of determining whether or nos
the article is marketable and worthy
to be used in the construction of the

send man down to the plant of the
company this morning with instruc-
tons to select the necessary number of
samples and the tests will then be
made. 1t will require seven days to
determine the strength of the cement
The promoters of the enterprise are
confident that the tests will be perfectly
satisfactory to the engineer for they
have already made a number of severe
experiments. all of which resulted
favorably.

STILL HEADED DOWNWARD.
Silver Makes Another, Although
More Moderate, SIumD,

Silver went down another point yes
terday, the close on the New York
market being 63 ga cents, as against
637s cents on the day previous Lead
remained stationary at the old figures
of S305.
Slowly but surely the eastern
financiers who control practically
everything connected with the
currency of the county, are
coming to realization of the fact that
something is sadly out of joint with
the present system. and they are look
ing frantically around for a remedy.
While their expressed opinions are to
the effect that silver is responsible for
so much of the trouble. it is very evil
dent that they are not sincere, but are
simply talking in that strain in order
to mask their real feelings on the sub
ject. The leaven is working in this con-
nection. Henry Clews, of New York,
most intense gold bug, has just put
forth the following statement of the
situation. s1 ~
wall street is already beginning to
occupy itself with the prospects of the
coming congressional elections. The
main matter around which interest CEN
tiers is the currency question. 1t is
taken for granted that the issue must
come up for settlement, even though
the session of Congress be the short
one: and much interest turns on the
ouestion-how far the disposition of the
next Congress may be changed on the
currency questions? The possibility
that both parties. owing to party com
petition, may bid for the votes of the

best qualifications for guiding opinion

ways in which they can make their
guidance influential; and in proportion
as they discreetly use their power will
be the chances of a final placing of the
currency settlement beyond the reach
