SUIT TO QUIET TITLE.
Involves an Acre and Quarter of
Salt Lake Property.


In Judge Hiles' court yesterday the
suit of a. H. Hennefer against Jennie
E. Hayes was on trial, with Attorneys
S. w. Darke, Loofbourow, T. Ellis
Brown and ]. NJ. Denny appearing for
the plaintiff and Attorney S. P. Arm
strong for the defendant.
The suit was brought to have a de-
cree of the court quieting the plain
tiff's title to certain premises described
as a portion of lot 2 block 6, plat 3,
Salt Lake City survey. The plaintiff
claimed title in fee to the land. and
the defendant claimed an interest ad-
verse to the plaintiff. The case was
tried once before and new trial was
granted.
The hearing was proceeding when
court adjourned until this morning,
when the trial will be resumed.
The property is located on Fourth
East and Ninth South, and is a full
acre and a quarter lot. A. Fl. Mennefer,
Rebecca Bunce, w. H. Hennefer and
Edward Hennefer, grandchildren of
Abraham Hays, all claimed the lot by
virtue of a verbal contract made with
Abraham Hays. The contract was that
they should care for Hays and wife
as long as they lived. William and
Edward Hennefer both sold their in
terests to James Mclaughlin and
Celia M. Campbell. Abraham Hays
died in 1867, and his wife II years later.
The contract was made in the spring
of 1876. The case was tried before
Judge Howat as referee in 1894. He
decided in favor of the grandchildren.
which was later affirmed by Judge
Merritt. An appeal was taken and the
supreme court ordered a new trial,
holding that it was error to allow the
, grandchildren to testify as to the con-
tract made with Abraham Hays. 1t is
agreed that the decision of the court
in this case shall also affect the rights
of the other plaintiffs.

GEYsER-MARIoN DIVIDEND.
George F. Downey Is Given a Place
on the Company's Directory.

on L1O OOLlEdly O1ICSIo1y'
At the regular monthly meeting Of
the directors of the Geyser- Marion Min
ing company yesterday, the usual dfvf-
dend of cents a share, or $4,000. was
declared, payable on Dec. 1, the trans
fer books Of the company closing today.
to be reopened on Dec. 2.
Before the adjournment of the meet
ing, George f. Downey was appointed
a director of the company, to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Stuart
Stevenson, whose demise is deeply
mourned by host of friends and ae-
quaintances in this city and throughout
the west.
Before adjournment the following
resolution OF respect and coincidence
was presented by Director George Dern
and unanimously adopted by the board:
Whereas, On the 18th day of No
vember, 1897, our worthy and esteemed
fellow director, Stuart Stephenson, was
suddenly, Unexpectedly and without
any forewarning, called from this life,
and
Whereas, In the death of Mr.. Steph-
enson we have lost an able and con-
scientious director, an upright and
honorable citizen, and firm, true
hearted friend, man whose integrity
was beyond question, whose character
was unblemished, and whose IN .mory
will long be cherished in the minds of
his acquaintances; therefore be it
Resolved, by this board of directors
of the Geyser- Marion Gold Mining
company, that We learn with profound
sorrow and sincere regret of the death
of Mv. Stephenson; that we extend our
heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved
widow and relatives, and mourn with
them; that we feel that this company
has sustained a severe loss in being
deprived of the valuable services and
counsel and experience of our late CO.
director.

HOIST FOR THE SNOWFLAKE.
Valuable Property Between the Eu
reka-Rill and the Eagle Mines,


reka-Hill and the Eagle Mines.
Will Hatfield of Eureka fame has
been in the city off and on for the
past few days for the purpose of max
ing arrangements for the purchase of
a steam hoist for the Snowflake mine,
in Tintic district, located between the
Eureka Hill and the Eagle mines at
Eureka, and it is more than likely that
at an early date the new plant will be
on the ground and in working order,
as the company, which is composed of
substantial and well-known mining and
business men of Tintic and this city,
will spare no effort or money in the
thorough and efficient development of
the property, which is so favorably
located that there is not shadow of
a doubt as to the ultimate outcome of
the enterprise.
In fact, ten years ago the Snowflake
figured on the shipping list, and even
now good bodies of fine grade of ore
are exposed in the old workings of the
mine, and the company, with the
mineral in sight, could make quite a
showing in the way of production: but
nothing of this kind will be done, as
a double compartment shaft is being
sunk in order to open up the mine in
f1rst-class shape, and this shaft has
reached such a depth that it is abso-
lutely necessary to erect a hoist before
any further progress can be made.

HEsPERUs ORE SHIPMENT.
First Consignment Ever Made From
the Property.


The first shipment Of ore ever made
from the celebrated Hesperus lode
claim, owned by James A. Murray and
associates, says the Butte Miner. was
hauled away yesterday from the dump
OF Mcfarland and Simmons, who have
been at work on a shaft 100 feet away
from the portion of the claim where the
Parrot company spent $50, 900 in a vain
endeavor to cut a body of pay ore.
The shaft now being sunk by these
lucky leasers is an incline one, and they
are following the lead which was
found less than 40 feet from the sur
face of the ground The ore which was
yesterday hauled to the smelter by
several ore teams, is said to average 10
per cent copper, and the leasers are of
the opinion that they will soon have
number of teams hauling ore right
along from their dump. Up to this
time no pumping plant has been found
necessary. as there is but little water
in the shaft so far. AS the work prog
reSses, however, some water seeps in,
ind this is removed by means of buck
cts, which are run down and filled and
emptied by man on top. A small en-
CINE has been installed at the shaft, and
this furnishes the power for hosting
the ore as we'll as the water to the sur
face. A pumping plant will soon be
placed in position, however, and in a
short time the force of men at work
will be increased, and some extensive
DEVELOPMENT work done. The present
parts have only a lease on the prop
rty no bond having been given. The
entire AesDeruS lode claim has
been held at 100000 The Parrot COM
pany had a bond and lease on the
property, and when work was suspend
ed on the shaft, shortly before the res
ignation of Manager Gaylord, a bond
and lease was secured by the Hesperus
Leasing company, in which Silas King.
James =. Talbot and others were
largely interested.
This company took up the work of
the Parrot company, and crosscut eX-
tenSively from below the 200-foot level.
After working several months and
spending about $4,000, the Hesperus
Leasing company followed the example
of the Parrot people, and quit work.
While prosecuting a good deal of water
was found, and some small ore bodies
cut through, but not of sufficient Show
ing was made to justify the company
in continuing work.
The men who are now shipping ore
from the Hesperus were lucky enough
to find the lead near the surface and
though the quantity Of ore shipped is
not large so far, it is thought that the
smelter returns will help materially to
pay operating expenses as the develop
ment work continues.

WANT TAX REFUNDED.
Oregon Short Line Railroad Company
Sues Salt Lake County.

The Oregon Short Line Railroad
company has entered suit against
Stephen H. Lynch, county treasurer of
Salt Lake county, to obtain refund
of $211.4S taxes, alleged to have been
illegally collected. In the complaint it
is alleged that the board of equaliza-
ton of this state duly assessed the
rolling stock and franchises of the
company and apportioned to Salt Lake
county as its proportion of the same
the sum of $30,991. 1t is then alleged
that it was the duty of the board to
apportion the amount of the tax for
school purposes among the school dis
tricts through which the road passed,
including the schools of Salt Lake City,
but instead of doing that, the board
appropriated the full amount to the
city schools, and the plaintiff was again
assessed for school districts p, %, "a,
25, 81, 81, 80, sc, 40, Al, AZ, so, 81 and
81, in consequence of which the plain
tiff was again assessed for those dis
tricts, and the amount of tax on said
assessment was $211.4S, which plain
tiff paid under protest, and for which
it now prays for judgment.

A GOSPEL WOLF.
Arrested For Murder on the Eve of
Marriage

Arrested For Murder on the Eye of
Marriage.
Topeka, Kan, Nov. 22.-The Topeka
police have arrested the Rev. A. E..
Morrison. Methodist minister of Pan
handle, Tex, and are holding him on
suspicion of murder until the sheriff
can arrive from Panhandle and take
him home for trial
For several months Morrison has
been engaged to Miss Whittelsey of
Topeka, whose family is prominent
here and they were to be married dur
ing the holidays.
From the information the police have
received it is supposed that Morrison
is the same person as a minister of the
same name whose wife died suddenly
at Panhandle, Tex, Oct. 8, under cir
cumstances which pointed to poison.
Morrison admitted to Chief Steele
| that he was from Panhandle. but said
he did not know how a charge of muir
| der could be made against him. I'M
! less it was the outgrowth of criticism
that was heaped upon him on account
of his wife's death
| AT the Whittelsey home the family
objected to allowing reporters to see
Miss Whittelsey. One of the brothers
explained that Morrison was their
school teacher in Illinois 20 years ago

UTAH BASS SHIPMENTS.
Fifteen Thousand Fry Going to Colo
RADIO.


Denver Republican: Fish and Game
Commissioner J. S. Swan will be I'M
able to stock the Gunnison and Grand
rivers with spawning bass, as he had
hoped. He went to Provo, Utah, the
early part of this week, contracted with
Game Warden M. G. Newell of Utah
county for a large number of spawn
ers, which were to be transported to the
Gunnison hatchery, and then placed in
the above rivers. Mr. Newell at once
went to work selecting the bass desired
for Colorado waters, and was busily en-
gagged at it until stopped yesterday by
a telegram from Mr.. Swan. which stat
ed that he would be unable to use the
spaWners, and, in their stead, catch
$4,000 fry bass.
After Mr. Swan returned to Denver
from his trip to Provo, he visited the
express companies to make arrange
ments for the transfer of his spawn
ers, which were to be shipped in bar
rels of water. Much to his surprise he
was informed that the express COM
panies would not handle his fish in the
barrels, as the water was certain to
splash out and damage the other eX-
press goods in the car. This was a, COM
plete set back to the fish and game
commissioner, and he was forced to
telegraph Mr. Newell to discontinue the
catching of spawners, and in their stead
catch fry bass.
Fry bass are much smaller than the
spawners, being a year younger, and
can easily be transported in large cans,
with tops on them, which will prevent
the stopping and splashing of the water
| caused by the shaking of the train
Yesterday Mr.. Swan sent Is of these
large cans to Provo, and the $4,000 fry
will be sent to the Gunnison hatchery
in two shipments of $500 fish each. one
to be consigned to the waters of the
Gunnison river, and the other to the
Grand
E. F. Campbell, state superintendent
of the hatchery, will go to Provo, and
personally suDerintend the transporta-
ton of the fish, changing the water in
! the cans as often as necessary.

OF the largest plants in the country.
The cyanide process was not an expert
ment, and the company had right to
expect fair returns from it. Last sum-
mer a thorough test was made of the
tailings in an eight-ton plant Samples
of the tailings from the various dams
were treated, and in every way the test
was made thorough
The average daily capacity of the
new plant is 400 tons. When free sand
is treated, the daily capacity of the
plant is something more than 400 tons.
but when shines are run through, the
action of the chemicals is not so rapid.
The value of the tailings run pretty
evenly, and While no figures are given
out by the management, it is under
stood that there is fair profit in every
ton of tailings treated.
During the summer, clean-ups were
made monthly. The zinc precipitates
We're shipped to the Omaha G Grant
smelter at Omaha and the works of the
National Smelling & Refining COM
pany at South Chicago, for treatment.
During the summer, more men were
employed by the Montana Mining COM
pany than at anv time in the past.
Now that the cyanide plant will close
down, about 80 men will be thrown out
of work. There is a large force of
AAAAiACio SO1otclAlly CIAPlOSCO+ SUMO III
stopping out ore and others in develop
ment work, and the two mills have
been run at their full capacity night
and day since being started up last
spring. About 300 men are on the COM
pany's payroll.
While Manager Burrell declines to
give an estimate of the life of the old
Drumlummon mine, it is believed that
the end is a long way off. The COM
pany is putting in new machinery and
buying supplies in a way that would
seem to indicate that the prospect for
a shutdown is remote. A new steam
pump of 500 gallons a minute is now
being added to the equipment of the
mine. 1t is being put in position on
the 1,60O level, the lowest working of
the mine. The new pump will give the
mine a capacity of 900 gallons min
ute to handle d feed of 400 gallons a
minute. The old pump of 400 gallons a
minute capacity viii not be used unless
the flow of water should greatly in
crease. Manager Burrell does not an
ticipate a large increase in the flow of
water, but believes in being prepared
to handle it if it should come.
