Items of Interest From Utah's Great
Gold Cnmn

Items of Interest From Utah's Great
Gold Camp.
The recent strike in the Front No. 8
is proving of great Importance, the ore
milling from So to SIS per ton.
At the Cannon shaft fine ore is now
being taken out, and large blocks of
antimonial ore, from a blowout from
the silver vein below, have been en-
countered during the week.
H. L. Benner brought to this office
Monday a piece of black quartz float,
in which considerable free gold was
d1scernible with the naked eye. 1t
was found somewhere up toward Lew
iSton peak.
c. H. Allen of New York and j. F.
Wells Of Salt Lake, who are heavily
interested in the Gold Reserve property
east Of the Sunshine company, visited
the property Tuesday. In company with
Colonel Wall, A. lessen and Superin-
tendent Andrews of the Hillside, they
also visited the Backyard, Gold Dust
and other properties.
Sam Young has a working model of
his recently patented invention for the
treatment of arsenical ores on exhibit
ton at DeLamar's blacksmith shop,
where he is explaining it's merits to
those interested. He claims to be able
to save all the gold and large per
cent of the arsenic, and the expert
mentS thus far made seem to bear out
his assertion.
J. S. Lakin left during the week for
SAT- Lake, where he will rest for some
time before deciding on future opera
lions. Mr.. Lakin came to the district
several years ago.. broken in health
and fortune. His physician had in
formed him that his days were num-
bered, and that he might as we'll die in
the mountains of Utah as anywhere.
With this cheering prospect before him
he landed in the district. AS soon as
he gained sufficient strength he COM
menced prospecting and located the
Sacramento group, to which he has
devoted his time and energies ever
since, hanging on in the face of many
discourag ements and difficulties, until
he had the satisfaction of seeing it de-
velop into one of the best mines of the
camp and steady producer of the
precious metal AS announced, MI.
Lakin last week sold the major por-
ton of his interest for 100000 cash,
retaining enough to keep him in spend
ing money as long as the mine is oper-
ated This is but another instance of
what enterprise and pluck can accom-
plish in these mountains.

COLD COMFORT.
NO DEMAND AT ALL FOR TARIFF

Silver Documents, However, Are
Much Called FOr-The Reason as
Given BY Republicans.

special says:
1T is probable that there win be no
joint debate between the gold and sill
yer standard bearers. The idea has
few advocates in the Republican ranks
here, and Chairman Babcock, of the
Republican congressional committee, is
pronounced in his opposition to 1T
When asked whether Mr.. Mckinley
would take the stump, he said he did
not know, but hoped that Mr.. Bryan
would continue to talk, as everything
he said made Republican votes.
Representative Mercer. of Nebraska,
secretary of the committee, strongly
faVorS a stumping tour by Mr.. Nc
Kinley. He said:
'On the Pacific coast, the great and
wal question is the tariff. So far as
the money question is concerned we
have the best of that argument as all
will readily see il they take pains to
inform themselves. L should like to
see Mr.. Mckinley make a tour begin
ming in California, working up the Pa
cific coast, then coming east, giving
about six weeks at the end of the cam
paign to that work"
Those who advocate having. McKin-
ley make a tour OF tho Pacific coast
and western states for the purpose Of
talking tariff, say that a pars of the
programme would be to circulate Bry-
ans tariff speech, which they assert the
Democratic congressional committee is
keeping in the background. The fact,
however. that tariff literature is not
called for even ait the Republican
headquarters causes some TO think that
any effort to force it 10 the front Will
prove a failure.
Many Republicans think that the run
is now on financial literature, merely
because the people want to inform
themselves ON that subject and not be-
cause they place it before the tariff
question. They say the tariff question
is we'll understood, and that the lack
of demand for such literature is merely
because people have made up their
minds on that question and thai on
election day they will not fail to give
If weight in the casting of their ball
lots.

BRUTAL AND BLOODY.
PRE1If,DITATFD ATTACK UPON
NON-UNION MEN.
One of the Results of the Strike at
the Brown Hosting and Convey
ing Works at Cieveland-FOur
Men Wounded, Two of Whom May
Die.

CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 14.-One of
the most dastardly attempts at pre-
meditated murder ever laid at the door
of organized labor took place here TO-
night. it being the outcome of the great
Brown Hosting works strike that has
been going on in this city for the past
three months. AS a result, four men
are wounded: two of whom will prob
ably not survive the night
On June 25, the great Brown Hoist
ing and Conveying Machine company
discharged its 800 employees because OF
a. threatened strike. Since that time,
rioting has been the chief paStime OF
the strikers and their thousands of
sympathizers Two lives have been
sacrificed through the troubles; for
weeks the works have been run under
military and police protection, and the
300 non-union men escorted to their
homes by armed officers to prevent
murder. The striking Workmen pu- p
a big light to beat the Brown company,
but have signally failed. Ever since
the trouble begun, the strikers and their
sympathizers have carried on a
guerilla warfare against the men VINO
took their places. They have assault
ed them, stoned their houses and boy
cotted them at the stores.
About a week go he five companies OF
militia were withdrawn from the Blown
works and police protection taken
away. The strikers applied for court
injunction, and were refused and since
then have become doubly revengeful.
Tonight a party of ten strikers went
TO the corner of Wade Park and East
Madison street and lay in wait for a
party of workmen who came by on
their way home from the Brown works.
There were nine men in the
little group of workmen with
their dinner pals. Without
moments warning the strikers
rushed from behind saloon where
they were in hiding and with a cry of
"scab" began shooting into the crowd.
A few of the workmen were armed and
returned the fire. The battle lasted
about three, minutes in which time
about thirty shots were fired, when the
strikers fed. Four men were shot-two
fatally.
George Plum, one of the workmen,
was shot in the head and will die, while
AL Caldwell, another workman, was
shot in the right leg and shoulder Two
of the strikers were shot and one Will
die. The one fatally injured is George

THE BULLS AND BEARS.
Savage Attack Made on Ajax and
Four Aces.

savage Attack Mnde on AJAX ana
Four Aces.
Quite an excitement was caused on
the floor of the exchange yesterday by
the savage attack made on Ajax and
Four Aces stocks. and the sale of these
securities at figures so low that it
would seem as if their values had been
cut in halves.
Ajax made a good showing at 20
cents. and if the transfers had closed
at this quotation, nothing would have
been thought Of the transaction, but
when the brokers began cutting ind
slaShing, and sales were made as low
as 81, il looked as if the bottom would
soon be knocked out from under this
. stock.
Nearly all of the listed stocks were
very weak, and were barely noticed in
the bidding. and when Four Aces was
called it was evident that this stock
was also to be sacrificed. and such was
the case. as it sold readily at 10 and II
cents. the closing quotation being 8
cents bid and 10 asked.
Immediately after the call a vote
was taken on the resolution governing
the rules relative to the range allowed
in the bidding on certain classes of
stocks. and these rules were changed
as follows:
In the bidding or offerings on stocks
ranging in value from 81 to So, an adj
vance or decline Of 21b cents governs;
S. to $25, 5 cents; above $25, 25 cents.
The transfers for the day were as
follows:

CHICAGO, Feb. 29.-The grand jury today
voted true bills against 2S2 persons accused
of conducting bucket shops in Chicago. This
practically covers every bucket shop in the
city forty nine in all. The grand jury's ac-
tion is the result of an Investigation carried
on by a committee of the Board of Trade
and was made under the direction and by
the aid of the body of public-spirited citi-
Zens known as the Civic federation.
The committee of the Board of Trade was
composed OF John Hill, jr., ii. H. Leech, W.
Storms. 1t spent three months in collecting
the evidence. Not only are the proprietors
Of the bucket shops indicted, but the chalk
ers. telegraph operators, bookkeepers, por-
ters,s in fact every one in any way con-
nected with the bucket shops is included in
the indictments.
The presentation of the evidence was a sur
prise to the grand jury and there was OPP
position on the part of several members to
taking the matter up. States Attorney Kern
informed the Jurors that in case they re-
fused to take the bucket shop cases up he
would be compelled to call a special grand
jury. II was decided after some consider
alton by the Jury to hear the evidence.
Capiases will be issued Monday for the ar
rest of each person indicted. This wholesale
indictment Of bucket shop operators was
never before equalled in Chicago. States
Attorney Kern remarked: 1T is clean
sweep OF the bucket shops and people have
been demanding that the bucket shops be
wiped out. Many times before indictments
have been found, but invariably the evidence
was weak and convictions could not be OBJ
tanned Now / am assured the evidence
Is strong and convictions may be had"
