Park City has not loitered behind the
ether mining camps this year in its
record of new discoveries made; in
fact, 1T is well up in the lead, and es-
peciaIly so as when a strike is made
there it means the disclosure of rich and
mammoth ore bodies, the extent and
permanency of which insures the final
development Of heavy producing mines.
For a long time the Lucky Bill Min
ing company, operating in the Park.
has expended large sums in the devel-
opment of its property, and, as the
weeks heightened into months and no
encouraging results were obtained. the
outlook presented anything but rosy
hue for these treasure seekers
Starting at what was considered
favorable location, the company started
q double-compartment shaft, and this
YVES sunk to a depth of 1,0S5 feet with
out finding any mineral of consequence
A drift was then driven to the south
from the bottom of the shaft distance
of $50 feet; and although no ore was
encountered in this direction, the COM
pany, with clear grit and a determine
ton to succeed, continued work and
probably would be still drifting today
had it not been that by a lucky chance
a wealth of ore has been disclosed at
the grass roots and at a. very short dis
tance from the original workings OF
the mine.
Two weeks ago. while Joe Hatch,
president of the company, and Supsrin-
fendent Burton were looking over the
property, they CHANGED to sit down on
the cropping of a ledge about 300 feet
northwest from the shaft. While en-
fra sred in conversation they accidentally
discovered that the ledge was mineral
lied and an assay of the ore revealed
values of Is per cent lead, II ounces
silver and S15. in gold to the ton.
The ledge is three and a half feet
wide on the surface and an exam1na-
ton Of the formation disclosed the fact
:hat the vein was contact in porphyry
and lime.
Irnmediately after the discovery de-
veaoyment work began, and now. at
depth of twelve feet, the vein has Wild
ened out to four feet, and the quality
Of the mineral has materially increased,
ASSAYS showing that the rock carried IS
per cent lead, $50 ounces in silver and
5000 in gold
The company is now pushing work
on the new discovery, and has also
started a drift to the northwest from
The. bottom Of the shaft with the ex-
pectation of cutting the ledge at great
depth.
The ore in the accidental discovery
is almost identical in character to the
product of the DAILY mine, and every
thing indicates that from now on the
Tuckv Bill viii be strictly in the swim,
and that within a short time it will be
a productive and paying mine.

BUSINESS, MINING AND STOCKS

days fault was encountered in the
mine and the vein was lost.
In the meantime Mr.. Osborn became
involved in litigation over his inter-
ests, and in the wind up he was eu-
chered out of his portion and the Char
ter Oak became the owner of the en-
tire property.
After losing the ore, however, work
was suspended in the operation of the
mine, and although leasers have re-
peatedly endeavored to find the lost
vein, the effort was futile. Marshal d
Royle, the well known law firm of this
city, who were the attorneys for -he
company, also spent several thousand
in trying to unlock the door of the
treasure vaults of the Mono, but they
also failed, and for a number of years
the property has remained idle.
Not long ago the Garter Oak COM
pany failed, and the attorneys for the
receiver, Messrs. Brooks and Stedman,
ordered the sale of the mine, with IFS
equipment, at public auction. This
sale, which was well advertised, took
place q week or so ago, as chronicled
at the time in these columns, the result
being that the property was bid in by
mr.. Driver at the insignificant sum Of
$3.50, and yesterday, as stated above,
the deed was received and the purchase
price paid.
While the mine may yet become pro-
ductive, the fact remains that Mr.. Dri-
yer has made a good deal, as the equip
ment OF the property, which includes
an engine, boiler, steel cable, houses.
and other appurtenances, is well worth
from $1,000 to $4,000, to say nothing
OF the mine, which is patented ground

THE SALE or THE MONO.
A Once Famous silver Producer Sold
For a Song.

Yesterday II. L. Driver received
deed for the famous old Mono mine,
and today the document viii be placed
on record in Tooele county
The Mono mine. in Dry canyon, Ophir
district, was at one time considered as
she richest silver producer in Utah, and
men went wild over its marvellous
wealth of the precious metal; and, al
though many other great producers
nave since been discovered and worked
in the same locality, it can safely be
said that the equal Of the Mono has
never been found in this or any other
country.
Like other bonanzas, however, the
Mono has been the cause of strife, liti-
cation and trouble.
During its early history it was the
wonder of the day, and the ore produced
from il was so pure and rich that it
could be sawed out in blocks and whit
tied like pieces of pig lead.
In fact line mineral was more like
bullion than ore, and when a consdgn-
ment was sent east for sale and treat
menr il was shipped as express by
Wells, Fargo & Co., heavy guard at
tending it while in transit.
Those were halcyon days in Utah and
the Mono stood foremost among the
rich producers of what was then a
territory-now a state, and the mine at
tracted such widespread attention that
capitalists tumbled over each other in
their efforts to secure the coveted prize.
The fortunate purchaser, however, was

Men Under Arrest.

LEADVILLE, Colo, Sept. 24.-An-
other quiet day was passed, the only
evidence OF a miners strike being the
presence os the state MILITIA, and the
movements of the details going be-
tween their camp and the mines that
are guarded. The citizens committee
is working readily with the militia, and
the sheriff and the courts are contin-
uing to act promptly upon all matters
referred to them.
The usual runors of trouble to come
are heard and the night guards have
some tales of attacks averted to tell
each morning.
TIL court of inquiry called by Cen
eral Brooks convened this afternoon in
secret session. By this means some
facts are hoped for that will give some
light upon the Coronado mine attack of
Monday morning.

deeply deplored the violence employed
ait the Coronado, and that none of them

arrest with fortitude, declaring ne has

CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-While the CAM
paign leaders at Republican national
headquarters don't wand the impress
sion to get among the party workers
that the political fight is practically
won, for fear of relaxation of effort,
there is a settled conviction in the
minds of such old campaigners as
Payne. Durbin, Cummings and Hahn,
that if the people went to the polls to-
day, Mr.. Bryan would be beaten by
an immense majority. These leaders
talked today to a reporter of the Uni
ted Associated Presses in a tone of SUI
preme confidence, and as if a load of
anxiety and doubt had been lifted
from their shoulders by the latest news
from the field.
Acting Chairman Payne said:
I'VE are ready to go to the polls now,
and we can hold our own for the next
six weeks. In Wisconsin it is not con-
sidered respectable amy more to be q
Bryan man. Mr.. Bryan has killed him
self by talking. His talk has made the
sensible and conservative citizens
afraid to vote for him, although they
may not like the Republican platform
The intelligent people viii no longer
read the vaporings of Bryan. His par
ty has gone to the dogs They ARE do
ing nothing to win votes or keep them
We have men out whose business it is
to report what the Democrats are do
ing, and they cannot find anything but
mastery inactivity. l have just re
ceived the result of the second poiA
taken by our agents in South Dakota
1t shows the Republican party has
gained over 5000 of the votes which
were doubtful when the first poll was
taken, and that the Democratic vote
has decreased in that time. This is am
indication of general Improvement of
the western situation within the last
few weeks. A poll was recently taken
in WinnebagO county, and il showed
5000 plurality for Mckinley, big in
crease over two years ago.
Major Hahn said:
There has been a, big change among
the western voters within the last two
weeks, more so within the last week,
and 1 am now firmly convinced that
the result in November in what are
now considered doubtful states, will

New York came in from an extensive
