TFrom The Heralds Correspondence
Brigham, Nov. 9.-The Keysor-
Mackay sheep case attracts increasing
interest, the people finding out that
1t was a case of some Importance and
a good many of the residents of
Brigham City being interested in the
sheep business. The prosecution
rested last evening and the defense
began their testimony this morning.
They have put upon the stand Mark
Bennion, Mr. Richardson. James w.
Palmer, Mr.. Hill, Alfred Moses,
Sheriff Davis, J. z. Bennion, Andrew
Q. Smith, George Harmon, Theodore
Syphous, Edward NIackay, all of Salt
Lake and Murray, except Davis and
J. McCoombs.
The defense sprung somewhat of
surprise by bringing testimony to
prove that Keysor had tried to buy
witnesses to convict Mackay and
Parks.
Three witnesses testified that in a
saloon in Murray, Naxfield, who had
been herding the sheep for Mackay
and Keysor, had made the statement
that he (MaXfield) had received $50,
and was to get $500 more ana the lease
of band of sheep from Keysor if he
would convict Machay and Parks CT
embezzling sheep. This statement
was made to a company in the U. P.
saloon at Murray, Edward Mackay, 8
brother OF the defendant being one Of
the company.
The defendant took the stand at
2:45 this afternoon. lie stated that
he was resident of Murray; had
lived there the most of his life; was
married and had a family; denied that
he had received 10000 head OF sheep
5000 head. and in 1895. the time OF the
contract, he had but $500 sheep be-
longing to Keysor. He objected to
the contrac, at the time he signed it,
and told Mr. EeVsor that he had but
$500 head of sheep belonging to him.
The balance Of the 10000 promised in
the contract were for money obliga
lions and sheep that he was behind.
Mr.. Keysor encouraged him to keep in
the sheep business and try to make
back his losses.
AT the time he made the contract
he had other sheep in the herd with
keysor's. some belonging to Mrs.
Bout of Salt Lake and to Thomas
Alcock, his herder; also 2,S00 head
from Charley DAIMLER, 5000 head from
MIR. Harmon, in all about 1900 head.
That winter was not hard, but the
spring was the worst he had ever
seen. He lost 5000 head out Of the IT,
oO0 The Alcock sheep We're left with
him to sold and he sold them. These
are the ones sold to Andrew Swensen.
In the fall of 1896 there were only 5000
head Of the Keysor-Bout sheep. The
following winter of 1862 was very
hard. There was severe storm about
the goth of February. 1897, and nearly
all of the sheen persisted. He hauled
the pelts to Kelton and sold the most
of them to Mr. Jones. He could not
get more than one-half the pelts of
those that died. He sold about 300
head of given out" sheep.

wELLsvILLE SUSPECTS.
Held For Safe Robbery on Rather
Slim Evidence.

Logan, Nov. 9.-David Potter and
John Adams. the two alleged Wells
vile burglars, were bound over TO the
district court this morning in the sum
of $500 each, after a preliminary hear
ing lasting since yesterday at noon.
Being unable to furnish the required
bail, the men were committed TO jail.
The evidence upon which they were
held is all circumstantial and gives but
very slim indication that they are the
ones guilty Of the robbery. There was
absolutely nothing that could be iden-
titled as having been taken from the
Wellsville store found upon their per
sons. No burglars tools OF powder,
fuse or anything OF that sort were
found uDon them either The checks,
orders and note which were taken have
been found buried in manure heap on
the outer edge of town. along the road
which it Is supposed they took in leav-
ing Welisville.
The prisoners story is that they
came down from Anaconda and left the
railroad track at Cache Junction to
peddle jewelry amongst the farmers
along the west side Of the valley. Pot
ter claims 10 be well acquainted in
Salt Lake, having, as he says, worked
for Culmer Bros. at a stone quarry
near Park City for four years, part of
the time as foreman. The sheriff
claims that the SIG in silver found on
the men corresponds with the money
taken from the safe. in that it is
greasy. but over $50 in silver was
taken from the safe and they had no
opportunity of spending any before be-
ing captured.

LAKE BONNEVILLE PROJECT,
STATE LAND BOARD ACCEPTS
THE CoMPANY'S PROPOSITION.
VIII Reclaim Over Two Hundred
Thousand Acres of Land-Will be
No Delay In Beginning Operations

The state land board gave consider
alton yesterday to the irrigation project
of the Lake Bonneville Power and
Water company, and as result of the
deliberations, the board has decided to
enter into a contract with the Bonnie
vile company, in harmony with the
company's proposition for the construc-
ton and maintenance of an irrigation
system which will reclaim 216.000 acres
OF land in Willard and Juab counties
The proposition is that the state shall
apply for the segregation of the lands
applied for by the company, exclusive
OF the lands upon which the board de-
cided adversely to the company's APP
plication.
In accordance with the present agree
ment, people who wish to settle on
lands over which the system extends,
will get their title from the state, at a
rate to be decided upon by the board.
Their water rights must be obtained
from the Lake Bonneville company, al
though the company is to have nothing
to do with the grant OF the lands.
For permanent water rights and the
cost OF maintenance, settlers must pay
SIS to the Lake Bonneville company
The cost Of maintenance allowed the
company will be $3.50 for the first FIVE
years, $1.25 for the second five. and 81
forever after the first ten years. The
company's charges for water. accord
ing TO the terms of the land law, will
be made a perpetual lien upon the land.
A proposal OF the company has been
accepted, by which settlers can obtain
water rights under system Of deferred
payments, which may extend over a
period of 20 years, with interest on the
n ofa n
cent per annum.
According to the present agreement,
the Lake Bonneville people will supply
water for $4,000 acres Of state school
land. an arrangement which will give
revenue to the state and obviate the
necessity of its building and maintain
ing an extensive plant.
The resolution which accepts the
Lake Bonneville company's proposals,
is as follows:
Resolved, that the application and
proposals of the Lake Bonneville Water
and Power company as amended by
their supplemental proposal and the re-
port Of the committee of this board.
which was received and filed on Nov.
S, 1897, be approved, and that the mat
ter Of preparing a contract between the
said company and this board be re-
ferred to the attorney general, the con-
tract to provide that the proposed
works shall be completed on or before
the first day of January, 1902, and that
the said company be required to give
a bond in the sum of $50, 600, condi-
toned for the faithful performance of
the contract with the state, which bond
shall be approved by the state board. -
All that now remains to be done is
the signing of the contract and the fill
ing by the company of a bond for $780,,
00O The Lake Bonneville company
will then be ready to begin the work of
construction, and the assurance is made
that the money is on hand. and that
there will be no delay in beginning
operations.

rains, were said to be the brightest in
years The Liverpool markets were sd
lower than they closed the day before,
when it was first heard from here, al
though the record showed that it had
opened at a trifing improvement.
Chicago, which was expected to re-
ceive 10 cars, had 277 inspected into
store besides another cargo from Du-
luth Of $4,000 bushels. No. / northern

ported 1,136 carloads against 1,048 a
week ago, and 746 the corresponding
day Of the year before. The Michigan
state crop report showed a. condition

was 6 per cent greater than last year.
May wheat opened at S95s @S9%,
against yesterdays close Of 9014 @909s,
and gradually declined to 1914 Later
in the day there was a little outcrop-
ping Of bullisn items that stayed the
hands of the sellers for time.
Clearances from Atlantic ports
amounted in wheat and -four to 53S, 900
bushels. There was a slight recovery
in Liverpool, reducing the net decline

meantime had rallied to 901s, declined

lower for both wheat and flour There
was an increase of 400, 600 bushels in
Chicago contract wheat. The total now
is 934 600, including $4,000 No. north

Receipts at primary points were l.

The market became very weak near
the close, although there was no in
crease in the volume of trade. May

Corn.-Was firm in spite of the weak

Oats-Were somewhat easier at a

This and the weakness of wheat caused
moderate selling.

feature was the Unexpectedly heavy
