There is strong probability that the
action Of the county court in appoint
ing green man to the office of live
stock inspector for the county may
result in embarrassing results to those
who have meat to sell.
The law governing the selection of
these officers says that they shall be
men of ability; in other words, that
each shall be veterinary surgeon.
brought in from the county has been
passed upon by competent man, a
veterinary surgeon, it is the duty of
the meat inspector of the city to con-
denim or reject the same.
When the new county court came
into power one Of its first acts was to
dismiss Lindstrand. the old official and
a very competent man, and to appoint
in his stead a young fellow named
Clays. from Bingham. This action
conciliating the member from that sec
ton. Clays knows no more of the
practice Of veterinary surgery than
Schooner Jim, but that made no differ
ence. The reform policy of the court
was that all heads must fall. Lind
strand received for his work the sum
of $50 per month, while the boy who
now holds down the place receives
twice that amount.
Food Inspector McAllister was seen
in relation to the matter Of condemna-
ton yesterday and said that It was his
understanding that the county inspec-
tor should be a man competent to fill
the duties of the place; that he must be
a veterinary surgeon. and that If not he

Judgment such action was demanded
The inspection tag of the county of
fetal does not cut any figure in the
matter at all. While ordinarily a tag
is prima facie evidence that the meat
is all right. in this case matters are
different.
The board of health has the matter
under consideration and may act in al
few days. Pending this, however, the
county court can carry out another
measure of reform by making the SAL
airy Of the present inspector conform
to that enjoyed by the older and more
man.

LET THE INJUNCTION STAND.
First Brush Over the Guano De-

Judge Kings decision in the guano
case seems to have given the members
of the Utah Guano company not a
little pleasure. and they look upon it
as but forecast of the result Of the
full trial of the issues of the suit.
Early yesterday morning the judge.
who had devoted the greater part of
two days and a night to a considera-
ton of the case. decided that the tenn
porary injunction restraining the Salt
Lake locators of Gunnison island from
removing any of the fertilizer. should
remain in force, at least. until the
hnal settlement Of the case. and he so
ruled. He was inclined to believe that
the island was more valuable for the
deposits of guano upon it than for
agricultural purposes. If at the next
hearing it is proven that the guano is
mineral then the Salt Lake locatorS
are beaten. but they are prepared with
expert witnesses to show that it is
not a mineral and the island is not I'M
fitted for agricultural purposes. but.
on the other hand. is all that could be
desired for certain special lines. They
have asked for restraining order to
prevent the Ogden people from re-
moving any more of the guano.
So confident are they that things are
coming their way. the Utah Guano
company people are preparing to bring
more of the product for the island.
Within the next few days a carload
is expected to arrive in this city. being
the twenty tons brought over from
Gunnison some time ago and held at
Syracuse. The farmers. horticulturists
and gardeners of the territory are to be
interested in the fertilizer. and it is
to be made so cheap that all can afford
to make use of it. In the east it is
worth SIG per ton. but here in Utah
the price is to be a great deal cheaper.
Samples are to be given out during

brought 6H cents, the next highest
6% cents and the best lot offered
went for cents fat. All of this wool
was extremely heavy and in conse-
quence the prices realized were not
quite as heavy as would have been

contained less dirt The same insti-

pounds more of wool sheared over
the river before the last storm came
on and put stop to the removal of
heeces. Just what price the last lot
brought is not known, but it is under
stood that the growers were well
satisfied with the figures.
As is always their custom, the wool
buyers who were at the Thompson's
Springs sale returned to this city and
made the announcement, evidently
for the purpose of bearing the wool
market, that the sale was made at
"a CENTS, all of which was en-
tirely untrue. The Herald this
morning gives the true figures. The
outlook for the wool market of the ter
titory during the season Just opening
is a great deal more favorable than
was the ease last year. and all Of the
reports received from the east are to
the effect that the tendency is upward.
not downward. the buyers and COM
mission men to the contrary notwith-
standing. They are here to secure the
Utah wool as cheaply as possible. and
do not hesitate to say that the mar
kets are falling down in order that
they may stand better chances of
making purchases at better rates for
them. The Provo mills always have
paid the very best figures of the mar
ket for the woods they require. and
they are still in the market for the
purpose of purchasing in the neighbor
hood of 100000 pounds.
The last spell OF cold weather has
interfered with shearing all over the
territory. and 1t is hardly likely that
it will be resumed again with full
forces until next week. and then every
thing will depend upon the weather.
The buyers are fiocking in in great
numbers.

PURCHASED THE FIRST WOOL.
Provo Wooden Mills Company the
Successful Bidder.

The two first purchases of wool re-
moved from the backs of Utah sheep
this spring were made by the Provo
Wooden Mills company and as a re-
suit that institution now has in its
warehouses something over 165, 900
pounds of the spring clip. Some days
ago The Herald made the announce

pounds of wool at Thompsop's
Springs being held by the owners a.
from cents to ~ cents. On Thurs
day that amount, with 10000 pounds
added, went to the Provo Wooden
mills, after a sharp competition in
which some twelve or thirteen buyers
took part. The price paid ranged
from 614 cents to cents, there be-

EIGHTY THOUSAND IN GOLD
Mysterious Shortage Reported
at the Carson City Mint
AN EXPERT is ON HAND
l: Is Expected That a Clue to the
Money Will Be Found
the Mint Employees Can Tell
Where II Went

Carson, New, March 18.-Andrew Mason,
Government Mint Inspector, and Super
intendent of the New York Assay Depart
ment, has been in Carson for the past
week inspecting affairs at the United
States Mint in this city. An article in
this evenings Tribune to that effect has
given rise to the rumor that something
was wrong at the mint, as heretofore the
presence of mint inspectors has always
been known to the public on the day OF
arrival.
The fact of so much secrecy caused ugly
rumors, and this evening it was learned
from Hirsch Harris melter and refiner,
that something was wrong at the mint
and that shortage had been discovered
about month ago.
: 1t was learned that something over
$50, 900 has mysteriously disappeared, and
that five clean-ups, which were made IN
quick succession, as it was thought some
reveal the cause of the shortage.
Refined gold and silver bullion to that
amount has disappeared from the depart
ment, and Inspector Mason expects. to be
able to clear up the mystery in a day or
two. Mr. Harris also stated the reason
so much secrecy was observed was that it
was not deemed advisable to give the
matter publicity as that might prevent
the discovery and recovery of the loss.
No direct charges have been made as yet,
and it will probably be some days before
the mystery is unraveled. The presence
of General Bob Keating, in Carson, to
whom several mint employees, including
Superintendent J. w. Adams, owe their
positions, is significant.

United States naval officer and another
engineer, on whose report the expedition
was organized. The committee intends
to sail by the next Pacific Mail steamer
for Colon. If the investigation proves
what the reports say, the investors expect
to realize many millions each from the
venture. The reports tell OF untold
wealth. Gold in countless millions is to

sapphires and emeralds are abundant.

United States of Columbia, but who was
educated in England, determined year
ago to take tour over the Andes in Peru,
his object being to discover If possible
promising gold field. The engineer. after
many hardships, reached an elevation OF
about 1000 feet on the Atlantic slope OF
the Andes. He found at the mouth of
stream emptying, probably, into the
crude fashion, the natives had washed
out 1900 pounds OF pure gold within year.
This was in locality. he says in his re-
port. never before seen by white man.
At a nearby locality he found a large
area of alluvial gold deposits that yielded
from seventy cents to one dollar with
every pan. After carefully taking his
bearings he returned and landed at the
mouth OF the Magdalena River in Colom-
ba. He became acquainted with an off,
ed there and told him what he had seen.

HIGH AND DRY


The Largest Ferryboat in the World Is
Docked
San Francisco. March 1S.-For the first
time since she was launched fifteen years
ago, the largest ferryboat in the world
will soon be high and dry in the ways at
West Oakland. For several weeks prepar-
ations have been made to dock the mann
moth vessel, and now nothing is required
to accomplish the desired purpose but a
favorable tide. 1t was found necessary to
dredge out special channel about 300
yards long; to have fourteen hawsers of
extra length manufactured; to build
special set of cables and to materially en-
large the ways on which all the passenger
ferryboats are docked. Although not
available for any other purpose than the
docking of the Solano, several thousand
dollars have been expended in prelimin-
still half a mile from the ways.
Since being towed down from Port
Costa all the engines and boilers have
been taken from the huge hull in
order that it may be as buoyant as poss-
BILE. This has decreased the draught from
six feet to five feet and one-half inches,
but even that is nearly two feet deeper
than. any ferryboat thar has ever been
on the slip at West Oakland. To still
further raise the hull pontoons have been
fastened on either side and the guards
have been showed up and raised with jack
screws few inches in much the same
manner as a house is raised. AS near as
can be estimated the weight of the hull is
about 54O0 tons. The Solano was fifteen
years old last November and has been in
constant service since she was launched.
1t was estimated that $75. 900 will be ex-
pended OIL her before she leaves West Oak
land

LIBERAL MORMON'S FAITH
An Advance Courier Arrives in New York
With News
Great Discovery Of Young College
Student--He Found Gold on
the Sea Shore

New York, March 1s.-There arrived at
the Saint Denis Hotel last night young
man who, since Wednesday morning last,
has been journeying towards this city at
the fastest possible rate with piece of
highly interesting news.
His name is Thomas Gordon. and he is
member of the Cooperative Community
of Liberal Mormons which for the past
twenty-five years has been established at
Bluff, San Juan county, Utah. In 1887
young Gordon was sent, at the expense of
the community, to the University of
Pennsylvania to receive an education to
fit him to become teacher in the graded
High School. He took the full academic
course, was graduated in 1891 and i'm
mediately returned to his home. A week
ago last Saturday, according to his story,
some OF the older pupils got into dis
cussion concerning the transporting power
of moving water in relation to river beds,
and to settle the dispute, he volunteered
of the San Juan River and show them the
stratifcation.
at 10 a. M, accompanied by about
twenty scholars, the school teachers went
to the river. They wandered down stream
about mile in search of a place for the
demonstration; Several of the older boys
had long handled spades. A point was
selected at a bend of the river near a high
bluff of basaltic rock on the New Mexico
side of the stream. Not a half dozen
spadesful of sand had been scooped up
before gold nugget the size of pea was
brought to light This was followed by
the finding OF many fakes of gold. All
thoughts Of geological investigation was at
once abandoned, and the news that there
was gold in the river was carried to the
settlement by the excited pupils. Among
the members of the community were
three old California miners, and they i'm
mediately took command of the opera.
tions in which the entire colony at once
engaged.
Directly across the San Juan from Bluff
is reservation of the Navajo Indians
with whom the Mormons are on the best
terms. 1t was decided to try both sides
of the river and small Golfer dam was
constructed on the reservation side. Al
noon Monday and at the close of work
Tuesday there was taken from the river
bed by the most primitive methods sum
OF gold in flakes and nuggets equal to
$780, A meeting of the elders was held
at once and it was decided to dispatch
the school teacher of New York with let
ters to influential friends here. Mr.. Cor
don left Bluff last Wednesday and reached
Durango. eighty-two miles distant, in
time to catch the fast train Thursday for
Denver. He declines to discuss the de-
tails of his mission to the East.

EZETA is AIMING HIGH
The General Still Hopes to Regain His
Lost Territory
Safely Housed In q San Francisco Hotel the

Some Inside Facts

San Francisco March 1S.-General An
tonic Ezeta, who is safely housed in a
comfortable hotel, announces that new
rebellion in his interest has taken place in
San Salvador. The last steamer from the
south brought letter to Ezeta stating
that on February 1st, last, President
Gutierrez unearthed a conspiracy that had
been hatched for the purpose of reinstat-
ing Ezeta as head of the Government OF
San Salvador.
Under Gutierrez's order all the leading
conspirators were shot. Among them
were Colonels Barrios and Salgedo and
Captain Mangandi. The chief of police
was Immediately shot and agents of the
Government caused the arrest of many
suspects. The letter adds that all the
prisoners who were in jail since the last
uprising. were ordered to be hanged, and
Ezeta believes that by this time the order
has been executed. Colonel Vasquez, a
supposed leader of the plotters, was
hanged by mob of indignant citizens,
the letter states, and Ezeta has concluded
that his followers chose an inopportune
moment for their undertaking.

preparatory to going to bed, when sur
prised by the lynchers. The woman had
evidently been outraged before she was
strung up, and everything points toward
a premeditated plan for the consummation
of the dastardly deed. No warrants have
yet been issued, but meeting OF the citi-
zens of the neighborhood was held yester-
day and it was decided that prompt
measures should be taken, and it is ex-
pected that possibly several hangings
will take place before long. Several per-
sons are under suspicion and the parties
will be taken and compelled to confess.
The latest report comes that man named
Hunt is implicated in some way with the
lynchers, and it is thought he can be
forced into confession. A number OF
the alleged rustlers were recently arrested
and taken to Spring View, where they
broke Jail and escaped to the reservation,
where they were afterwards recaptured
and convicted. The proximity of the
Indian reservation to the scene of the
depreciation makes it possible that a
United States Deputy Marshal may have
to make the arrests if warrants are sworn
out.
