The defendant in the divorce suit OF
Carrie Franks VS.. e. A. Franks yes
terday filed his answer to the COM
plant denying that he failed to pro-
vide his wife with the necessaries of
life and denying that she is in in
digent circumstances, or compelled to
live upon the charity of her relatives.
Defendant alleges that at the time of
the marriage he was in very ordinary
circumstances, being encountered by
certain judgments and that his cir
cumstances were fully explained to
the plaintiff. Defendant admits that
he has not received as great compen-
sation for his work. owing to the
general depression in business, as he
has received in years gone by. but
that he has done all within his power
to secure means and that all of the
means he has so secured he has used
for the mutual benefit and comfort of
the parties hereto. Wherefore de-
PENDANT prays that the PLAINTIFF s
prayer be refused and that he be per-
mitted to go hence

4 Railway Sold.

Denver, June S.-A special to the Re-
publican from Santa Fe, n. NJ. says:
The Texas, Santa. Fe & Northern rail-
road, A narrow guage line leading from
the terminus of the Denver & Rio Granda
TO this city, was sold under a court de-
cree today to satisfy a. claim of the Far
Iners Loan and Trust company or 81, 160.-
900 principal and interest. c. W Water
man, of Denver, representing the trust
company, and also attorney for the Dem
yer & Rio Grande railway, bid in the
road for SO, 600. The Rio Grande will
assume control in a few days and there
is great rejoicing here among the people
over this fact. For fifteen years Santa
Fe has looked forward to the time when
the little giant that has done SO much to
build up Colorado would finally secure a
road of its own into New Mexico's cap
itaI The sale will doubtless result in
making this town freight rate common
point and give the Rio Grande q direct
interest in the upbuilding of New Mex
leo. The road runs from Espanola to
Santa Fe, a distance of forty miles, ana
has been heretofore used by the Rio
Grande under trackage privilege agree
ment.

Ogden State Bank VS.. Barker At
firmed.

The Ogden State bank, appellant, vs.
William Barker ct al, defendants, and
Charles NJ. Brough, respondent. The
judgment of the lower court was af-
frmed; opinion delivered by Judge
Bartch and concurred in by Chief
Justice Merritt and Associate Justices
Smith and King.
This was a bill in equity in aid of
execution to set aside two conveyances,
the first being q deed given by the de-
PENDANTS, William and Mary Ann Bar
ker, to Franklin J. and Leroy Barker,
and the second a mortgage deed given
by William, Mary Ann and Franklin J.
and Leroy Barker to Charles NJ
Brough, upon certain lands and prem
ises in Weber county. The case was
heard before the court, sitting without
jury, upon the pleadings and also
upon the evidence taken before Attor-
ney J. I. Smith as referee.
The district court found that the
mortgage given by William, Leroy and
Franklin j. Barker and their wives to
Brough was valid, and that as to
Brough, the action should be dismissed.
That securing the mortgage given by
the other defendants to Brough a note
or notes given by the defendant Frank
lin J. Barker did not invalidate said
mortgage

or passenger for a point on the Short
Line, the Union Pacific would force
the freight or passenger to travel via
its own line from Omaha or Kansas
City westward; or, in the event Of the
Missouri Pacific declining to comply
with such a demand, full local fare
would be charged from Ogden west.
BY this ruling the Missouri Pacific lost
the benefit of its line from the river
to Pueblo-and what was true of it
is also true of the Burlington, Santa
Fe and Rock Island railways. This
was generally regarded as a reasonable
position for the UniOn Pacific to take
Now, however. come the segregation.
and next Monday the United States
court will take final action in cutting
away the Short Line on the application
of the bondholders, and instead OF
looking only to the Union Pacific for
its business, the Short Line will be in
the field for all it can get from all the
lines. Instead of freight and passen-
gers for the Short Line territory all
going west through Nebraska and Wyo
ming, as much as three big trunk lines
now entering Colorado can get will
come this way.
The difference will be felt almost
entirely by the railroads and not by
the merchants of this state, as there
will be no transfer Of freight required.
The segregation will help the Rio
Grande roads and the Colorado Mid
land immensely. but even those two
roads will not gain all that the Union
Pacific loses. The Northern Pacific
will get its share and will stand in
better relation to the Short Line COM
pany than any other road, through it's
connection at Granger, in the western
part of Wyoming.

Len,hi Gold Mining AMI Milling
Company still Considering.
Another meeting of the board of d.
rectSrs Of the Lemhi Gold Mining COM
pay was held yesterday and the mat
tSr of a plant for the treatment of the
tompany's ores was again considered
in all Of its details. 1t is now pro-
posed to put in two plants, one for the
mating of the copper, silver and gold
in the lower grade ores and the other
a combination mill for the treatment
of the gold ores alone. For the purpose
of studying the matter more carefully
President Dorsey left for the north
last evening and he is to be followed
by several members of the board of
directors and a number Of machinery
men toward the end of the week. While
the party is on the ground the de-
cision as to the treatment of the pro-
duct of the company's properties will
Se reached.
Splendid reports have been received
from the mines during the past few
days and it is very evident that the
company has secured a bonanza
group. It was decided by the board
that the development should be con-
ti1gous and vigorous.

THE PROPOSED SEGREGATION.
How the Situation Is viewed in Den.
Yer.

Regarding the difficulties just now
confronting the Union Pacific, the
Denver Republican says:
Much Importance is at present being
attached to the impending segregation
of the Oregon Short Line from the
Union Pacific. 1t is stated in Colorado,
and in Omaha the statement is re-
ceived with apprehension, that the new
move will be materially to the advan-
tage of Colorado lines, if not to Den
yer and Pueblo as cities, anyhow.
Omaha will lose whether Colorado
gains by the change or not, and it is
reasonably figured that she will.
With the Oregon Short Line as a
part of its system. the Union Pacific
had its own rails all the way from the
Missouri river into Montana. Oregon
and Utah. Where freight originated
east of the Missouri river and was
destined for a point on the Short Line,
the Union Pacific insisted on receiving
it at the river, and by this means got
a long haul out of it. This state of af-
fairs exists today. Taking the Mis-
souri, Pacific as an incident road.
which has rails all the way from st.
Louis to Pueblo, where that road
would start a shipment of merchandise

Cupit VS.. Bank of Park ci,v

Thomas Cupit, appellant, vs. The
Bank of Park City defendant and
respondent. Opinion and judgment
heretofore rendered and adhered to-.
The present opinion was delivered by
Judge King and concurred in by Chief
Justice Merritt and Associate Justice
Smith.
The supreme court decided this case
at the June term 1894. A petition ~for
rehearing was filed in which it was
claimed that the cases cited in the
opinion and upon which it rested
were based on a statute wholly diff
ferent from that prevailing in this ter
ritory- The petition was granted Gnd
the case again argued. 1t was held by
the court when the case was first pre-
sented that the notice given by the
defendant Of its motion to discharge
plaintiffs attachment was defective
in failing TO specify the ground upon
which the motion was based.
The court followed the decisions of
California, which construed the
statute of court procedure, and which
has been incorporated into the Utah
code.
The rehearing was granted because
1t was argued that the Utah statute
was different. The court now finds
lnat such IS not the case and the pre-
Vlous opinion reversing the lower
court was affirmed.
The action came up on appeal from
an order of the lower Judge Bartchs)
dlscharging an attachment. The writ
was issued upon an affidavit which
set forth that the defendant had dis
posed of its property with intent to
defraud it's creditors" and as a furth-
er ground, that the defendant fraud
ulently took plaintiffs $1,000 on the
eth of June, 1893, knowing well that it
was insolvent; that the defendant
fradulently took the NJ. S. Ascheim
Mercantile company's SS73.10, knowing
well that it was insolvent." This lat
ter claim was assigned to the plaintiff.
together with six other causes of
action, forming the subject matter of
this suit, aggregating nearly $4,000.

STILL ANOTHER LEMHI.
This Company Is Putting in a Stamp
Mill, However.

Ex-Congressman T. 5. Singiser, Of
Idaho, one of the heavy stockholders
in the Lemhi Mining company, which
is operating within about eight miles
of Salmon City, Ida., came down from
the rth yesterday morning and left
for Chicago last evening on special
business. He expects to return in about
two weeks, or possibly three, by which
time he is of the opinion the, new
stamp mill being put up by the COM
pany on it's properties, will be COM
pleted and ready for operation. 1t is
2 fve-stamp plant and takes more of
the form Of an experiment than any
thing else. The ore from the mines be-
ing worked, which are the Freeman
and California, is free gold, but it has
not vet been determined whether
stamps will save all of the values on
q. large lot. although all the indications
are that they will. In the event Of
there being a considerable waste in the

Mr.. sSirgiser reported that mining

Messrs Mount and Holbrook, two of
che owners OF the hex properties, in
the Detroit district, gave the hex Mine
and Smelter company people another
chance for their white alley yesterday
and then came to the conclusion that
they had had enough, and in a quiet,
determined way decided that they
would take back the properties with
out further ado. Mr.. Mount came up
from the south on Sunday afternoon
and was joined here by Mayor Hol-
brook yesterday morning. Together
the gentlemen paid another visit to
the%fice of the hex company and
there gain met Mr.. Humphreys, who,
in his usual bland way, knew nothing
relative to the prospects for a settle
ment Of the two delinquent payments.
Being unable to CLEAN any information
of a satisfactory nature, the gentle
men took their leave and then con-
suited with their attorney. According
to the terms of the contract, the prop
critics reverted to the original owners
at once after the passage Of the date
upon which the monthly payments
were to be made, in the event of there
hang a default entered against the
purchasers. 1t was very plain, there
fore, that the IbeX company had moth
1uS -'-lDSE 10 90 With the mines, luSy
havil4s gone back to tbs owners after
June l, upon which date a payment
of $4,000 should have been made. Then
there is also the note for $1,000 given
by Underwood as payment for the
mo- h of April, which is still unpaid.
The statement was made yesterday
afternoon by the gentlemen that they
proposed assuming full control Of the
properties at once and Mr.. Mount will
go south toward the end of the week
for the purpose Of putting a force of
men to work opening them up and
placing them in a fl condition for the
production of ores. 1t is also stated
&hat the owners will erect a smelter
near the mines, for the purpose of
treating ores. Mr. Mount recently Sc
cured a plentiful supply of water by
contract. AS he is coming overland it
is not thought that Mr.. Campbell will
reach here for some three weeks yet.

Within the rext three or four days
the connection between the old and
the new workings of the Pioneer mine
which is owned by Hon. P. T. Farms
worth and located north of Miners
vile, Beaver county. will be made
The face of the new incline is now so
close that the blows of the hammers
in the hands of the miners can be
heard in the bottom of the old work
ings. This would indicate that there
is but a. comparatively small space be-
tween the two inclines. The pumps
are taking care of the water in first
class shape and none is allowed to
