WHAT THEY WILL DO.
Future Plans of the Retiring President
 and His Cabinet

Future Plans of the Retiring President
 and His Cabinet.
 The out of office programme of the president and his cabinet is almost set tied. Cleveland after the 4th of March will take up the handling of the fortune he has accumulated in and out of office, and his secretary of war will be with him, as heretofore, in all his deals, hav- ing his eyes politically cast toward gu bernatorial henors.
 Both Secretary Olney and Attorney General Harmon will return to tho law practices they have kept tethered safely during their time of service with Cleve- land. Secretary Herbert is said to be slated for a good thing in connection with the Cramps projected ordnance plan!
 Carlisle is certain of the future, as a dozen threads are in his hands, and any one will lead to comfortable berth for life. It is thought he will become gen. eral counsel for the Equitable Life As gurance company at $25, 900 year.
 Morton need have no cares for the fu- ture. He was very wealthy before he entered Cleveland's cabinet, and, while he has added nothing to his fortune dur ing his four years in the agricultural department, he still has money enough to keep him comfortable for many times his natural term of years. He will go back to his farming in Nebraska.
 Francis of the interior department will return to the St. Louis wheat pit.
 Postmaster General Wilson, practical Iy without a fortune, will be deprived utterly of the support he has derived from his place in the house. and, having been so long divorced from tho active nractice of law, will be ill the worst po- sition of any of the cabinet people. l Cleveland would like to do something for Wilson in a judicial way. but op- nortunity lacks. He may accept an offer be now has under consideration to be- come president of the Washington and Lee university. the oldest institution of learning in the south. Chicago Trib, une.

BLUE MOUNTAIN GOLD.
Interesting Description of Thi

Interesting Description of This
Promising Camp.
The last issue of the New York Engi-
neering and Mining Journal contains
the following description of the Blue
mountains IN San Juan county:
The Blue mountain range IS located
about the center of San Juan county,
in southeastern Utah, has an area OF
about 10 by % miles in extent, and
reaches a total height of 11.400 feet
above sea level. The mesas at the base
of the mountains range in the neigh
borhood of 1000 feet above sea level.
The southern end of these mount
aims, where gold, silver and copper are
found, contains the two highest hills
in the entire range, with two somewhat
lower hills coursing parallel between
them. These principal peaks are AbaJa,
on the east, and Mount Linneas, on the
west, both about the same height. while
the ridges separating these two prom
inences are from LOCO TO 1,50O feet lower
in altitude. This entire range seems to
have about the same pitch. 81 degrees,
from crest to base, and in most places
along the top of the main ridges the
apex comes to wedge shaped point,
not wide enough for a footpath unless
1t be made so by means of tools. These

tie. conglomerate, breccia, porphyry
and limestones of both the dolomite
and carbonate varieties.
Native gold, in the form of both
coarse flakes and wires, has been
found here; native silver and sulphur
cts have also been encountered in the
same locality. principally in the por-
phyritic formation. while punches OF
iron-stained sandstone have yielded
high returns, and the states of this
region also carry gold in variable
quantities. The deepest working in this
district consists of one shaft having a
vertical depth of "a feet. which con-
meets with a tunrel 200 feet long, run
ming through the crest of the hill, ex-
posing a slip on the slate formation

Mammoth Record Jottings.

E. A Moore has completed his con-
tract on the Last Chance and there is
probability that another contract win
be let within a few days.
The pump of the Treasure Hill has
arrived and is being put in. 1t is ex-
pected that work will be resumed on
that promising property within a day or
two.
A new tramway is being built by the
Mammoth company from the mine to
the old ore house, Where the first-claSS
ore is now being stored.
1t is said that negotiations are pend
ing between the Buckeye and Bullion
Beck companies to pipe the water from
the Buckeye mine at Silver City TO the
Bullion Beck mill in Eureka. There is
an abundance of water going to waste
now which could thus be probably
utilized.
When the repairs have been COM
pleted in the Sioux mill ores from the
Sioux, North Star. Utah and other
mines will be treated. H. c. Bacorn,
one of the lessees of the mill, says there
is plenty of ore in sight, the only ques-
ton being the profits to be divided from
working them.
H. l.. Blake is busily engaged in pros
pecting the Sunnyside, which adjoins
the Mammoth mill site. Noticing some
groupings just above the Sioux mill and
a few yards from the New East Tintic
track, he started Sunday to go into the
hill and on the following day struck

THE MANTLE HOLD-UP
Discovery of Peculiar Circumstances
Surrounding the Affair.

Chief Paul, Detective Sheets and
others of the police department are not
thoroughly satisfied with the develop
ments in the supposed hold-up of Will
lam Mantle, which was reported at
headquarters as taking place on Tues
day night There are some suspicious
circumstances which have not yet been
explained to Chief Paul, who placed
Detective Sheets on the case and sent
for Mantle to come to the office. The
chief told a Herald reporter last night
at his residence that Mantle had not
responded to the summons.
On the other hand, several of the
valuables taken from Mantle were
found yesterday morning near the
scene of the presumed hold-up at First
and A streets. Under the stone wall
skirting Rowland hall was picked up
Nantes watch and chain. the hands on
the time piece indicating the hour when
it was found. 1t was turned up by
William Rand. an employee of the Ore
gon Short Line, who surrendered the
article to the police. Later in the dav
the father-in-law of Mantle brought
into the office two sacks in which his
son-in-law had carried the money. One
was a loosely stitched salt bag and the
other a long, narrow buckskin pouch.
steps from the corner where Mantle
says ne was relieved of his valuables.
Mantle. it is understood. declares that
he had $T5 in silver in the pouch, and
paper money and checks in the large
salt sack. The opinion of Chief Paul
upon this circumstance is that % sill
yer dollars could not have been crowded
into the buckslsin pouch, nor does he
believe that half of that amount would
have been held by the salt sack. De-
tective Sheets reported that some of
the checks supposed TO have been taken
from Mantle had been cashed yester-.
day at several banks. On Nantes
statement TO Chief Paul there were
checks on Sears s, Co. for $40; Henry
Blank, SIG; T. NJ. Armstrong and an
other person, the amounts of which
were forgotten. These discoveries and
the reluctance of Mantle to give any
ton have placed the depart
ment in a peculiarly delicate position
and nothing viii be done until the in
vestigation has an opportunity to pro-
coed p little further.

wagon road facilities, extending from

from these roads to all streams and
