The spirit of progress, compromise
and good will seems to have descended
as mantle on the shoulders of a num-
Der of Mercur's big mining men of late,
and as d. consequence changes, conces-
sions and consultations have taken
place that cannot but prove to be of
great benefit to the principals, and to
the camp in general.
All Mercur is overjoyed at the
amicable settlement of the Brickyard
difficulties and complications, and as a
result of this compromise and con-
sondation that portion of the camp is
bound to come to the front in great
shape, and as work progresses it can
not be long now before the Brickyard
is classed among the producing and
dividend paying mines of the district.
Following close upon the heels of the
happy termination of the Brickyard
controversy comes the welcome intel
ligence that a movement is on foot for
the further carrying out of this spirit
of wholesome consolidation, and yes
terday The Herald was informed that
this time it was the Rover company
that was TO experience the benefits to
be derived from a continuance of this
policy, in the fulfillment of which Cap

the Rover company a. one-haf interest
in the Rover No and Gold Flat
claims, and all of the Little B frac-
ton, in return for which he is to re-
ceive capital stock in the Rover COM

SUPREME COURT.
Two Very Important Decisions Hand
ed Down Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-The SUI
prerne court today dismissed the appeal
in the case of the Raven Gold Mining
company VS. The Miners Union of the
town of Altman in Colorado, appealed
from the decision of the circuit court for
the district of Colorado.
In this case the mining company sought
to have the federal court to take cogniz-
ance of a strike connected with the Cripple
Creek mines in 1894. on the ground that
the company which was organized in
West Virginia, was of another state
This the local circuit court declined to do
on the ground of want of jurisdiction
The supreme court sustains this posi-
ton.
Justice Shiras handed down the decis-
ion of the court in the case OF the
United States VS.. Dan K. Swearingen
This case was brought to the supreme
court on a writ of error from Kansas
circuit court. Swearingen was indicted
and on trial convicted of sending OBJ
scene matter through the mails. The ar
ticIe in question was a newspaper at
tack upon rival editor. The supreme
court found that the court below was in
error in it's instructions pronouncing the
article obscene and therefore reversed
the decision.

WESTERN ASSOCIATION.
Southern Pacific Will Not Join the
Clearing House.

CHICAGO, March 9.-The Southern Pa
cifc will not become a member of the
clearing house of the Western Passenger
association and the fight over commits
sions on that class of business will go on
as heretofore. The trouble in reaching an
agreement lay in the fact that the
Southern Pacific desired that Emigrant
Agent F'ugazzi of San Francisco, be
made a general agent of gke clearing
house. This the roads in the associa-
ton declared they could not do because
of their contracts with the agents they
now have. The Southern Pacific would
not recede from it's demand and the
others would not give in. The Southern
Pacific also asked that it be allowed COM
missions on traffic on business going into
territory where the other lines would
not consent to allow it. and finally the
meeting broke up without any agree
ment being reached.
The chairman of the Trans-continental
association has ruled that the Southern
Pacific must cease its practice of allow
ing second class passengers to ride in
first-clasS cars between Albany, N. Y,
and Chicago and Cincinnati. The South
erD Pacific claimed that it could not
rightly do this because there were no
tourist cars running between Albany and
the two cities. It's action, however, was

group at Mercur, and are on the dip
of the great ore shute which has been
developed by about 5000 feet of drifts
on the Golden Gate, upon which it is
estimated that at least five millions
of dollars in gold has been already ex-
posed and blocked out within few
hundred feet of this property, the
trend of these immense ore bodies be-
ing directly towards Wonder group.

LAW LEADS TO a aFoRTuNE.y
Two Well Known Salt Lake Attor-
neys Buy Into a Producing Mine.

The excitement incident to the alb
sorption by the Dalton and Lark Min
ing company of Bingham of three big
mining propositions adjoining had
hardly been allowed to lull or quiet
down before two well-known Salt Lake
attorneys, MeSsrs. LoofbouroW and
Kahn, SHE'D their castor into the field
of action, and when time was called
they came to the front with an &C
quired two-thirds interest IN the For
tune mine. which is located south of
and adjoining the keystone mine
which is one of the bonanzas lately
purchased by the Dalton and Lark
company.
AT the time that the Dalton and Lark
company acquired title to the Key
stone mine the property was being
worked under lease by w. H. Knox
and two other men, and The Herald
is informed that for a year past they
had been making good money out of
the business; but with the sale of the
keystone and the expiration of their
lease they turned their attention to
the Fortune ground owned by them,
from which one or two shipments Of
high grade ore are now being made
monthly.
At present the Treasure is being
worked through the keystone tunnel,
but before long the mine will be de-
veloped so that the precious metals
can be hoisted without depending on
this outlet.
The parties who disposed of their
interests in the Treasure were w. II.
Knox and J. P. Motherwell, and it is
understood that they received a good
sized wad of 'long-greens'' in payment
therefor.
The Treasure shows up some fine ore
bodies. 1t is right on the great min
eral belt of that region, and there
can be no doubt but that the new pur-
chasers will make a mint of money
out of their investment.

ton has been received in this city that
Henry Buffers of Berkeley has closed a
deal from which the entire street railway
systems of the City of Mexico have
passed into the hands of an English syn

more would be expended in permanent

extensive and the exclusive franchise

contains the following regarding one
of Utah's citizens and the mineral re
sources of our state:

member of the Utah legislature, is IN
Chicago on business. To reporter

Most Elegant ShowinSs.
Not much has been said during the
past year or so regarding the Utah and
Galena mines in Fish Springs district

wfehstanding adverse silver legislation
and the lack of railroad facilities, these
two embryotic bonanzas have been mod
estly, very modestly indeed, contribut-
ing their share to the imperishable
wealth of the country; and as work
progresses and the silver and lead mar
kets becomes better, even without rail-
road advantages we shall expect TO
hear that these two mines have taken
their places with the best OF Otah S
heavy dividend payers.
The Utah mine was Incorporated in
July, 1892, with a capitalization of 1OO,-
coo shares of a par value of $40 each,
and since that date it has paid $780, 900
in dividends, and on the 10th of this
month will pay another dividend of
$4,000

Utah company are as follows: q.
M. Weller president; p. ]. Reid, vice
and treasurer; Charles Van Alystine,

and w. H. Mcintyre
The Galena mine was incorporated in
May, 1893, with a capitalization the
same as the Utah. This property has
not been worked continuously since in
corporation, but since September. 1885,
it has paid $4,000 in dividends, and to
this amount will add $4,000 more on the

Plan Agreed Upon For ReOrganiza-
ton to Be Issued Today.
NEW YORK, March 9.-The plan for
the reorganization of the Oregon Short
Line and Utah Northern Railway COM
pany, agreed to by all the contending in
terests, will be officially issued tomorrow.
1t calls for foreclosure and a new COM
pany to be known as the Oregon Short
Line Railroad company. 1t preserves the
entire system and also control of a
block of the Oregon Railway and Navi-
cation stock, which secured $4,000. 600 col
lateral trust bonds, the new Short Line
company paying assessment upon Navi-
cation stock. There are 1,4S0 miles in the
Short Line system. A prior lien of ST.
10000 upon about 1,1S0 miles will remain
und1SturDed, but the total Indebtedness
will be only about $4,000 per mile.
The annual fixed charges of the new
company will be 81, S53. 30, as compared
with $2,7SS,576 for the old company. This
reduction in charges is accomplished by
converting half of the present So S94, 600
consolidated SIS into non-cumulative
"a income bonds. likewise half of So
746,OOO Utah Southern mineral and extern
sion I per cent. mortgages. The other
half gets new 5 per cent bonds, and by
converting s13.000,00 600 collateral trust ;
per cent. bonds into non-cumulative ''B'
bonds to receive interest if earned at 8
per cent. for three years and 4 per cent.
thereafter.
The 'B'' bonds have two directors in
the company and an income from Navi-
cation stock to secure their own or 4
per cent. income, and no lease of the
new company can be made without their
majority consent or guarantee of their
income. No lien ahead of "a and "B''
bonds can be created without a majority
consent OF each.
The present s26,1SO,2oO common stock
pays So a share in four instanments and
receives therefor new consolidated per
cent. old bonds and 30 per cent stock in
the new company, the other half stock
going to- the holders of S14 900 consols
