Our companies desire to mark their
! condemnation of such proceedings and,
at the same time, to protect themselves
and their agents by positively refusing
] to permit the idea that they consent in
any way to their business being raided.
! If the bushwhacking fight is to be
continued, they will ask the courts to
protect their and their agents inter-
estS and rights against such unworthy
and, as we believe. illegal attacks.
Cynic rivals declare that Brown
Craig & Co. have been badly hurt and
are trying to curry favor with their
/ home management. However that may
! be. 1t is understood that their example
will soon be followed by other Pacific
coast agents.
THE home officers are very indig-
nant at the manner in which the rate
war has been conducted on the Pa
! cific coast by the managers who are
paid to procect their interests, and
probably several changes will be made
in them before long said Mr. Brown
on Sunday to a San Francisco Chron-
icle reporter Certainly territory will
/ be taken from San Francisco. Our
circular indicates a turn in the tide
! There is so much enmity among us
that there is not much prospect of a
new compact, but the rates will not
much longer be cut below the expense
line and insurance wrecking will be
stopped"
One Of the direct results of this con-
tlnued rate cutting, which is now in
It's seventh month. has been the re.
tirement of another coast insurance
company and it is said that other and
stronger institutions are about to fol-
low suit if there is no let up. A dis
patch received from San Francisco
yesterday morning by Harris G. Wilson
conveyed the information that the SIM
insurance company. of California
winch was in the Office Of the firm
named, had retired from business and
! Its policies had been reinsured IN III
home Mutual, which really means the
F1reman's Fund, the latter havine
relnsured the business Of the Mutual
some time ago. The Mutual Is in tbe
Office of Rogers & Walker. This rein-
sufance means that the capitals and
reserves OF the two companies are nov,
packing the business written Nv INC

Advices were received yesterday
by the Sunshine people from Milwau-
ixee 10 the effect that the initial ship
ment Of machinery for the new mill
SO rapidly being constructed on their
property had been shipped on Monday
and the receipt of the consignment
should not be later than ten days from
the date of shipment, unless there are
some unforeseen delays. IN the first
lot of machinery moved are the heavy
pieces for the plant, including the en-
sine, boiler. rock-breaker and tanks,
the connections. rolls and other small
Ter parts to follow at once.
Out at the mill good progress is be

the materials having arrived on the
ground For the purpose Of personally
inspecting the work Judge Sherman

while c. II. Jacobs came in last night,
after over a week spent a the mill.
Good development work is being
done with the incline, which is going
down straight through the ore bodies
of the property. Every day the Sun
shine becomes bigger by reason of the
improvement in the showing made
and great sections OF ore are being
blocked out in readiness for eXtrac-
ton and treatment.

Allen G.. Campbell Thinks There
May BE Good Properties.
Alien c. Campbell was a passenger
on The Union Pacific train from Mil
ford which arrived last night, he hav-
.ng been in the southern part of the
territory for the purpose of loading
shipment of cattle for the eastern mar
kets. After getting the steers on the
train he drove over to MlnersVllle, near
which town is the present gold excite
ment or what is left Of it. Some days
ago The Herald contained the an
nouncement Cf the discovery of gold
in the near vicinity Of MinersVille,
and the statement was made that as
saws of from 81 to $40 in gold had been
obtained from rock taken from the.
prospects. This report Mr.. Campbell
Verifies. he having seen the returns
from the tests. Sufficient work has not
as yet been done by the owners Of
the properties to make them more than
prospects, and therefore il is impOS-
sible to state just what there is within
reach. but il Is Mr.. CampbelPS opinion
that something good viii yet be shown

Indications are splendid. All the as
says received up to date have been
from practically surface rock none of
the locations having been opened up
10 any depth.
The people of AIinersville and vicin-
ity are still much worked UP over the
finds and locations have been made
without number. The rock is a quartz

observable with the naked eye. Some
good samples of the ore have been sent

are now anticipated daily by the own

One of the blocks of Utah Sugar
company bonds was yesterday sold in
New York by Hon. Frank J. Cannon
for the local syndicate which recently
purchased the securities, as exclusively
reported in The Herald at the time of
the first sale. The price paid by the
eastern people on the bonds Just sold
was 80 per cent of their face value,
which is considered d fair price, in
view of the general condition of the
sugar industry in the United States.
The sugar company itself did not re-
ceive quite 80 cents for the entire issue,
but with the proceeds it was enabled
to wipe out all, or practically all, OF
the floating debts and now stands

What Lime win Do with smoIe.

Having been greatly troubled with the
vapors arising from continued eXplos-
Southern Utah mining property, one OF
the pioneer mining men of this territory
has just discovered q very valuable neu-
trailer for the smoke and noxious
fumes which would cling to the tunnel
despite the presence of ventilating fiues.
He called some scientific knowledge pos
seSsed by him into play and as result
vaporS. With an ordinary fruit tree
spray pump the foreman IN the tunnel
blows lime water into the hanging smoke
and gasses and the lime neutralizes the
latter 70 such an extent that the tunnel
is rapidly cleared and the men may re-
turn to their work at the face. The
lime water is made by Stacking a small
quantity of lime in a bucket of water
and Of the latter but d small quantity is
needed at each spraying.

Pioneer connection Madc.

After many days of delay and ex-
pectation the connection between the
BID and the new workings in the
Pioneer group, located north of Miners
Vile in the vicinity of the famous
Gave mine and owned and operated
by p. T. Fsrnsworth. has been made
Ind it should not now be many days
before the property is placed in con-
hition for the production of ores. The
pumps are taking care of the water
in good shape and they win now be
lowered TO the stump recently compile
ted. From there the machines can
be worked 10 advantage and the mine
rendered practically dry. IT is the in
tention of Mr.. Farnsworth to drift
through under the old ore bodies and
tire extraction should be heavy.

Has Given encouragement.

The recent strike in the Modoc ground,
which adjoins the Elko properties and
is situated below the Sunshine has given
much encouragement to the members of

velopmentS on the properties of the COM
pany will commence in the very near
future. Ali OF the stockholders have sig
nifled a willingness to submit to an as
sessment and the latter Is undoubtedly
coming at once. 1t is believed that the

NOW ouT FOR PEACE.
General Insurance Managers Have
Tired of the Merry Fight.

IlTCO Oh inc merry L
They are rapidly coming to It and
the general opinion among insurance
people is that it is now but the cues-
ton of short time when there will
be a rustling of the high grass and
out will come the dreaded snickersnee
from its hiding in the home offices of
the insurance companies doing bust
ness on the Pacific coast. Then will
more than likely fall several heads
into the basket and those heads viii be
from the anatomies OF general mana
gers, for it is said that preliminary
moves have been made IN The east lcok-
ing to a sudden cessation OF the rate
cutting now so general over the coast.
1t is very evident that the gentlemen
in charge of the departments see which
way the wind is blowing ana they are
already preparing for the avalanche.
The first to move is the agency OF
Brown, Craig and company which
has just issued a circular On behalf
Of their companies, the Phoenix, Ameri-
can and Pennsylvania Svea. In the
circular letter they say that their COM
panies have instructed them not to
permit the taking up by their agents
of the policies Of other companies for
the purpose of rewriting the lines at
reduced rates. but on the contrary to
strictly refrain from attacking or in
terfering with the rights and business
Of such other companies. The firm
says in addition thar it has been di-
rected to refuse to accept any of their
own companies policies offered for
cancellation, or to pay or promise to
pay any return premium thereon. The
letter concludes:
The history of insurance affords. we
believe. no parallel to the reckless,
ruinous, senseless and wicked fight
which has been waged in this state
and elsewhere apparently by the very
men hired and paid by the companies
to foster and protect their interests
