EDWARD DICKINSON TALKS.
The Union Pacific's General Manager
is Pleased.

Omaha, June lot was a foregone
| Utah Northern would be placed under
the control of a separate receiver, the
only hope OF the interests antagonistic
to the American Loan and Trust COM
pany being to secure co-receiver who
would be fair to the Union Pacific,
which has now been accomplished by
the appoir -ment Of W. H. Bancroft,
superintendent of the Mountain divis-
ion of the Union Pacific.
General Manager Dickinson was elat-
ed over the appointment of Mr.. Ban
croft, whom he regards as the one
man TO direct the interests of the
separated property.
Don't BeIive Egnn VIII Accept.
But I do not believe Mr.. Egan will
accept the terms of the transfer, en-
bodying, as it does, the Utah South
ern, property which has not paid
expenses. Our people feel satisfied with
the terms of the order as made by
Judge Merritt, and if it is accepted by
the American Loan and Trust com
pany, it must be done at great cost
to that corporation. The American
Loan and Trust company, through its
attorneys, has fought the cO-receiVer-
ship idea from the beginning and this,
coupled with the interest feature of the
order, which is along the lines out
lined by the attorneys for the first
mortgage interests, the receivers OF
the Union Pacific and Oregon Short
Line, will probably prove too much OF
a load for the receivers to carry.
VIII Not Affect U. p. Forces Much.
Should Mr.. Egan accept, it will not
affect the forces at Union Pacific head
quarters to the extent of more than
thirty men. and as for our mechani-
cal forces. they are reduced to mini
mum. II has been my idea, however,
all the way through, if two receivers
were accredited to the property and
the contentious of the attorneys for
the first mortgage and other inter
ests followed, that the successor re-
ceiver could not consistently take the
property.
Ogden the Key to the Situation.
''Mr Egan may now operate the
properties in the eighth and ninth cir
cults, but l can hardly believe this, as
ogden is the key TO the situation, and
it would leave Mr.. Egan the ends of
the lines to operate while the great
middle would be operated by the pres
ent receivers, for l take it that Mr..
Bancroft would refuse to take the
road if his senior should object to the
order"
There is considerable satisfaction eX-
pressed about the headquarters when
the terms of the order became known,
for the majority of the heads of de-
partments felt that Mr.. Egan would
not take the Short Line loaded down
with non-paying divisions, as in the
case of the Utah Southern and Utah
Southern Extension.

Spanish MIL Running.

Operations at the Old Spanish mill
have now been resumed and it is an
ticipated that the work will be con-
tinuous. Several of the properties of
Bingham, in addition to the Spanish,
are to contribute to the ore supply of
the plant. For some time past extern
sive changes and repairs have been
under way at the mill and it is now
in splendid shape for a good long run.
1t is to make use of the cyanide pro-
cess for the treatment of gold and
silver ores.
Another Bingham mill is to resume
operations at once. 1t is the Old Lead
mill, and the work will be done under
the personal direction of Superinten-
tendent Legg. The Rocky Mountain
Bell Telephone company yesterday re-
ceived request TO put in telephone
connection between Bingham and the
mill and work on the line, which is to
commence today. The line of poles is
already in place and all that is neces-
sary is to string the wires.

WORKING OREGON pLAcERs.
Extensive Operations Being Inaug-
urated BY Grant Brothers.

-
Hon. Heber J. Grant returned yes
terday morning from a visit to the
placer grounds in which he and his
brother B. F. are interested, in the
vicinity of Granite, southwest of
Baker City, Ore. Mr.. Grant could give
no definite information as to the re-
suits of the investments in that sec
ton. His brother has been very busy
charging a ditch for some four miles
and also constructing a reservoir. The
reservoir would be completed the day
Mr.. H. J. Grant left Granite, and wa
ter was turned into the fiume the
morning of his departure. The Messrs.
Grant Bros. expect to replace two
small giants with large ones within
the next ten days, and the men are
now working night and day on the
pipes for these giants. Inasmuch as
the claims purchased by the Grant
Bros. have heretofore paid expenses
and a slight profit and have been
worked only in the daytime and with
small hydraulics, it is confidently eX-
pected that with large giants and
working day and night some good
money will be cleaned up in the fall
at the close of the seasons opera

4 Condition-Not a Contract.

San Francisco, June 1O.-In the
United States court today, eX-JUdge
John CARRIER concluded his argument
in favor of the demurrer of Mrs. Stan
ford against the suit of The govern
ment TO recover 100000 from the
estate of the late Senator Leland
Stanford. He contended that under
the acts of 1852 and 1864, there was no
provision that the stockholders of
the Central Pacific should be person
ally liable for the payment Of the
United States bonds. That those
bonds should be paid, he commended,
was only a condition Of the bill. 1t
was not a contradictory a condition.
A decision is expected in about a
fortnight

"TAR AND TARTAR"
ItzePs Comic Opera Presented at the
Grand Last Night.

Adam ItzePs comic opera, in three
acts. Tar and Tartar" was attended
last evening by one of the lar9
Monday night audiences that the
Grand Opera house has yet held. The
real charm of an operate proauctlon
nowadays does not altogether consist
in the dramatic merit of the dialogue,
or the originality of its music, but in a
great measure in its surroundings. It's
success is largely due to brilliant cos
tunes, lavish scenic effect and a gen
erous showing of natures handiwork
In modern operate production the
aStute manager needs but to have
twenty or thirty fair maidens clothed
in pink tights and, not unlike a
centipede with its hundred legs, they
will walk on to success.
Tar and Tartar" possesses in a
great degree these necessary equip
ments for the making up of a success
full comic opera. In fact, it may be
said that this latest effort of the PIXIE
Opera company is by far the most per-
feet and certainly the most elaborate
production they have yet attempted
Our little prima donna, Louise Man
fred Pyke, who took the part of Fa-
rina, a professional beauty and who,
although succeeding in shining
brightly. was not the star of this
production. This distiction was al
lowed TO rest in the capable hands of
Helen Salinger, who essayed the role
of Alpala, a Tartar princess. In de-
plotting woman and a wife with q de-
cidedly tropical warmth of temper,
Miss Salinger was a great success.
Her costumes were elegant, her form
matchless, and if only her voice were
a little less strident, she would be a
valuable acquisition to any company.
In roles that require a more than
usual vacuity of countenance, AL
Leech is strictly in it His face is his
fortune The part of Muley Hassen,
the shipwreclSed tar and successor to
the sultan's throne, allows Mr.. Leech
full opportunity to let out all the in
nate humor that is pent up in him.
Winfield Blake has a good part in
that of Cardamaw the Bedouin chief,
and he makes the most of it. His
makeup was the most realistic and
thoroughly picturesque of all there.
The minor rarts were all creditably
flied and Miro Del La Motta and
Daisy Thorne never will be missed.
Everything was excellently man
aged. No slips or halts and not one
tiresome wait.
Tar and Tartar" runs for the rest
of the week at the Grand opera house.

COL. TRUMBO TALKS OF THE SAN
JOAQUIN VALLEY PROJECT.
1t VIII BE an Important Factor in
Solving the Problem of a Com
peting Line to the COast-GeneraI
Notes.

Colonel Isaac Trumbo, who returned
from San Francisco yesterday, brings
cheering news concerning the San Joa-
quin VALLEY road project which, in the
minds Of those who have watched the
trend of recent events, will offer solu-
ton of the problem of providing COM
peting line from Salt Lake to the coast.
The many obstacles that the promoters
of the enterprise met with have been
gradually overcome, terminals have been
secured and the first rails will be laid q
Stockton next Saturday
Trumbo yesterday, lis now in shape to
offer terminal arrangements to any road
that will build across and meet il. As
resident of Utah and one interested in its
development, l hope that the aid this
road will be to lis in building through to
the coast will not be neglected. l have
just arrived and have not had time 10
give the subject attention yet, but will
have some information later on"

( TALK WITH MR.. BANCROFT.
He VIII Sever All Connection With
the Union Pacific.

the Union Pacific.
All sorts of rumors were set afioat
yesteXsy as soon as the nature Of
JudgSs,Ierritt's decision was known.
The principal point urged against the
decision was that Mr. Bancroft, being
Union Pacific man and a candi-
date OF that road for the position of
co-receiver. would continue to be
Union Pacific man after taking charge
of the segregated system. Some said
that the shippers were unanimously
disappointed over the decision and
some even went so far as to suggest
that a meeting be called. But after
the subject had been considered and
1t, was learned that Nj. Bancroft
would sever all connection with the
Union Pacific upon taking his new
position, the sentiment began to
change
Mr. Bancroft held a sort of reception
all the afternoon. His friends drop
ped in to congratulate him, railway
men called to talk business and ship
pers visited him to learn the exact
status of affairs and learn what his
attitude was.
a Herald reporter found the super
intendent late in the afternoon and
was cordially received.
Are you prepared 10 go in as re-
ceiVer in case the arrangement is
satisfactory" asked the reporter.
Yes replied Mr. Bancroft, ''and
when ] go in with NIr. Egan as CO.
receiver. l shall, of course, sever my
connection with the Union Pacific
Thets step win be taken just as soon
as Ethe Trust company signifies its
iuf&ntion of accepting the order of

talk that although receiver for the
segregated roads, you viii still lean
towards the Union Pacific?"

Closed Down the Fisk.

Messrs. Bacon and Bird came in
from Ophir last evening, bringing with
them two bars of silver bullion pro-
duced at the Fisk mill and valued at
$1,000. The gentlemen made the an
nouncement that these would prob
ably be the last of their kind, for some
time to come, at least.
AS stated by The Herald was the
case, the mill on the property is now
idle, having been closed down at the
end of the run just made. 1t is stated
that the developed ore bodies in the
Chloride Point, which was contributing
the tonnage for the plant, have given
out, and in order that tie property
may be again made to produce it is
proposed to continue the development.
The indications are said to be very
good.

OPERATIONS HAVE CEASED.
Development of Mica Deposits Was
Not satisfactory.


For the reason that the operations
have not been satisfactory the Salt
Lake people who were interested in
the mica claims in Cedar basin, south
of st. George, Messrs. Leonard, Hall
and Lippman, have sent word TO the
properties that it is needless for the
work of development to be carried on
longer, and it is anticipated that the
men will knock off work at once.
These claims were bonded by the gen.
tlemen named in the sum of $4,000
from the owner, Daniel Bonelli, and
the indications for the opening up of
a large body of the mica were very
promising; but it was found, after sew
eral months of development work, that
the deposits were in such position that
the shooting away of the quartz in
which they were found, broke up the
mica and rendered it unfit for COM
mercial purposes. All manner of ex
periments were tried, but they were
all in vain, and in consequence the
working of the properties has been
given up, for the present, at least.

SAM GRICE ARRESTED.
In Company With VIM. Brophy, Who
Was Shot at CenterviIIe.


Was Shot at CenterviIIe.
From all indications Sam Grice is at
his old tricks. Sam and a companion. who
says his name is William Brophy, were
arrested last night and confined without
any charge being placed against them.
Brophy had a Shot-mark on his arm.
The wound was recently made too, and
this causes one to wonder at a singular
coincidence.
1t appears that a young man named
Streper heard a noise in his barn al Cen
treville on Sunday night. and taking the
family rife went out to investigate. Upon
arriving at the shed he saw two men
whom he had good reason to believe Were
trying TO get away with some of the
portable stuff which was inside.
Streper called upon them to halt, but
they did not; in fact, they started to run.
Streper took a shot at them and hit one
in the arm. He captured him, but the
other man got away.
The wounded man was turned over to
the sheriff, who telephoned the chief of
police here and asked that an officer be
sent up there to identify the man.
Later telephone message was received
at The Herald office announcing that the
man had been turned loose.
1t is thought at the station that Brophy
is the man who was shot by Streper,
and that Grice accompanied him
A charge will be preferred against lie
men today

of Milford, are showing up some ex-
tensive ore bodies and the members

President Dern Going Out With the
Checks For May.

President Dern, of the Mercur Gold

eastern members of the board of di
rectors, George Dern and Thomas
Killeen, will leave for the camp this
morning, and with him will go the
checks for the payment of the en-
ployees of the company for the month
of May. This paper represents the
sum of in the neighborhood of $4,000.
which will be distributed among the
employees of the company.
The Mercur company yesterday paid
the amount of the dividend declared
some time ago, and thereby distrib-
uted the sum of $4,000. The gentle
men are going out to the camp for
the purpose of making an inspectio-

auer having just blown in a second to
be used in the treatment of matte. Of
these six, the Germania has three, the

of ore continue it is more than likely
that other stacks will be placed in

HOW THE JoBBERs FEEL.
Satisfied, if MIR. Bancroft Lives Up TO
His Promises.

Ii was the general feeling on Saturday
that a co-receiver would be appointed
with Mr.. Egan. and the only question
was as TO the person who would be
chosen. Members of the Jobbers' associa-
Hion hoped that it would be some business
man, not connected in any way with a
railroad but AIR. Bancrofts frank state
ment Went Il long way toward reassuring
them

we have been Disseminated against III tie

trade north, south, east or west, we
could if justice were done Us. and we
hoped that relief might come to US out
of the litigation We want 10 make Salt

and shall succeed if We are fairly dealt
with by the railroads. Now if Mr.. Ban
croft lives up TO the statements he has

He is a first class railroad man, has made

Church Yard Litigation.

The next case was Frank L. Thir-
kieId VS. the Mountain View Cemetery
association, appellant, from the Fourth
district court.
Judge H. L. r. Rhodes made the
arguments for the appellant and At
torney H. II. Henderson for the re-
spondent.
The case briefly stated is that on
November 20. 1892, the plaintiff was
the owner in possession of lot IN
the Mountain View cemetery, at Og-
den, used by him as a burial place
for his family, and at that time con-
tanned the remains of his child, Louis
Alfred Thirkield. The defendant re-
moved the remains of the child from
the grave and inferred it in another
spot in close proximity to the original
grave and inferred the body of another
person in the child's grave.
1t was alleged by plaintiff that by
reason of the aforesaid action he was
greatly distressed in mind and body
chiId's casket and grave clothes, and
$4,000 damages.
The defendants, answering, stated
that the lot in question was sold to
James n. Kimball, of Ogden, in the
year 1887, and by mistake afterwards
they sold the same lot to this plain
tiff On Nov. &c Mrs. Kimball, mother
of J. n. Kimball, died and the defend
ant association prepared a grave in
the lot in question and while doing so
removed the body of the child with the
utmost care and reinterred it about
sixteen feet from its original resting
place.
The jury in the lower court found a
verdict for the plaintiff, assessing his
damages at $1,15O, from which the
present appeal was taken on the
ground of errors in the charge to the
jury, and that the verdict was the
result of such cause, aided by passion
and prejudice on the part of the jury
The case was argued and submitted
