KnnH-wILHELM CASE.


II Began Monday Afternoon and Closed
This Afternoon.
PoTTsvuLE, May 12.-The Koch-Wilhelm
libel suit, which began Monday afternoon,
was continued all day yesterday and this
morning Most Of the time was taken up
with arguments by counsel and discussions
over many points, both Of an important and
trivial nature There was large attendance
of members of the bar present during the
whole day and they seemed to take much
interest in the discussion between counsel.
The prosecution called two of the directors
of the electric railway to show that they had
received copy of the letter sent to the
prosecutor, Mr.. Koch, and which is claimed
to be libelous These letters were offered in
evidence.
In opening for the defense ex-Judge Ryon
argued that the letter in question, instead of
bing libelous, was a privileged communica-
tion, as Mr. Koch being president of cor
poration was a public character. He also
dwelt upon the labor that entailed in Sc
curing certain rights of way for the company
which Mr. Wilhelm performed.
Mr. Wilhelm occupied the stand nearly all
day, but was asked comparatively few ques-
tioIs, as the attorneys disputed almost every
question and consumed the time in address
ing court and quoting authorities. Mr. Will
helm was not excused from the witness box
until late in the afternoon. Congressman
Bmmm and G. d. Arters, of Cressona, were
called by the counsel for the defense, but
neither gave any testimony for the jury
| A telephone message to the HERALD this
afternoon, at 4 o'clock, stated that the case
was still on and had not been yet given to
the jury.

j. j. Faney this morning received the
blue prints of the ground work for the pro-
posed new electric light plant and exhibited
them at his South Main street store this
morning. There are two sets of plants one
made to suit the Westinghouse system and
the other for the General Electric Company's
system. According to the prints it is pro-
posed to have sufficient power for arc and in
candescent lights for streets, stores and dwell
ings and independent power for day service.
Mr.. Franey says it is intended to supply
hotels and other places with power for fans
and also to have an artificial ice plant in con-
junction with the light plant. Ex-Water
superintendent Betteridge has charge Of a
force Of men who are making a road along
the east side of the Lehigh Valley railroad
for the carting of the dirt and rock that will
accumulate in making excavation on the west
side for the proposed power station. This ex-
cavation will be extensive, as the embank-
ment will be cut down to the level of the
railroad and back TO the Plum alley line.
This work alone will consume at least three
weeks Mr. BetteHdge has secured permis-
sion from the street committee to erect a
fence on the east side Of Plum alley as a
guard against accident when the excavation
is made.

Red Butte District.

The Red Butte mining district is still
an entity, says the Richfield Advocate.
Its present recorder is that same Rus
sell Kelley who now lives just this side
the Sewer river on the road running
straight north from Annabella.
OF late there seems to have been a
renewal of interest in the old Red
Butte region. About two miles south
east of the Central bridge the Marble
boys. Ben, Elm and Nathaniel have
struck a small vein of ore which they
claim assays SS3 in silver and shows
trace of gold. This is near that 100
foot tunnel which served as the dis
trict's ndmesake and which R. A. Lowe
and others are soon to begin working
over. The Marbles claim to have found
a rich bed of manganese in the vicinity
and several other prospectors are
quietly looking over the ground.
From the boundary lines named in
the organization meetings minutes
above, it will be seen that Red Butte
district is something like .25 miles long,
north and south, and about the same
distance wide. from east to west. 1t
misses Richfield some three miles to
the east, and embraces all the mineral
lied area of mountainous country from
Richfield south to Marysvale on the
east side of the Sewer.

mine some very rich ore has been found.

came out from Florence last Friday and
returned YESTERDAY He reports matters
in the camp looking very promising. On
all the claims where work has been GO
ing on this winter the lodges hold their
size and values as depth is gained. Four
hotStS are now employed in the camp
and the question of the permanency of
the lodeS will soon be established beyond
a doubt. As the Free Press has pointed
out hundred times in the past u years,
the formation of the Florence gold belt
IS essentially formation that holds the
mineral.
Colonel S. B. Miner, who returned
Wednesday night from his Mercur trip.
states that the Marion mill was started
up on Tuesday of this week and that
both plants, with a combined capacity
or lSo tons daily. were grinding away in
a most satisfactory manner. Mr.. Mil
Lamar for the erection of the electric
light works Is causing favorable COM
ment in the camp, and that ii is more
than likely that most of the companies
mines with electricity if the charges are
not too high, and it is not believed that
the charge will be excessive.
1t was stated on the streets yesterday.
and there is good reason to believe the
report to be true, that another big body
OF ore had been struck in the Humbug
mire, at Eureka 1t is said that from
one of the employees of the Humbug own
e-s. who was in the city, it was learned
that the find was in the lower tunnel, and
that the new ore body was larger and
richer than the original discovery. 1t
was also stated that the ledge is dipping
to the east. on account of which there Is
a feeling of citation in the ranks of those
who are interested in the welfare of the
Tunnel company. Jesse
Knight, who is the heaviest owner in the
is now in California for an out
ing, and 1t is given out that he had been
sent for, as the old ore body was pinching
out, but before the word could reach him
the mineral zone was encountered in the
lower tunnel, and now all concerned are
happy.

CRYSTAL PALACE GOLD.
A Bonanza Uncovered by Salt Lakers
in Oregon.

Messrs. Schenck and Rea, of this city,
who are heavily interested in the
Dalton & Lark mine, at Bingham. were
happy yesterday over the fact that a
fabulouslX rich strike had been made
in the Crystal Palace mine, which is
located 80 miles east of Baker City,
Oregon.
Associated with Messrs. Schenck and
Rea in the ownership of the Crystal
Palace is Mr.. S. A. Work, who is the
manager of the property.
This mine has been on paying
basis for sometime and a small Hunt
ington mill was installed at the mine
a year ago, but, on account of the
scarcity of water, the plant was closed
down and a long tunnel was started
for the double purpose of finding water
and to cut the ledge at a greater
depth.
A few days ago this tunnel disclosed
the ledge at a distance of 722 feet from
its mouth, and not only was water
encountered in abundance, but a
magnificent body of gold ore was IN
covered, and it is now believed that
the find will make it's owners rich.
On the 18th instant Mr.. Work wrote
to Mr.. Schenck announcing the find
and stating that the ore body was IS
inches to two feet in width. TIE also
sent DOWN samples or the ore, the
poorest pieces of which were sampled
in this city yesterday, the certificate
showing values of 1910 ounces silver
and S10,442.4S in gold to the ton, while
the balance of the samples sent were
fairly lousy with the yellow metal
On the Sth Mr.. Work wrote again
stating that the vein had grown wider
as it was cross-cut and that now there
was every reason to believe that the
body of rich gold ore would be ali of
four feet in width. Mr.. Work also

AROUND BAKER CITY.
Revival of Activity in Oregon Gold
Camps

Mr.. James L. Baisley, says the Dem
ocrat, of Baker City, Ore, who is
spending a few days with his family in
/ this city, informs a Democrat reporter
/ that his new quartz discovery con-
/ tinues to improve as development pro-
crosses and he confidently believes that
he has at last struck a bonanza. 1t is
situated a short distance from the
Mabel. which has produced some of the
richest ore ever taken out of a property
in this district.
Mr. Baisley has been working on his
new find for several weeks past and
has uncovered a lead that fairly daz-
Zles him. The vein is two feet wide
and the ore VIII go $50 to the ton. If the
showing continues, and the owner is
confident that it will, a mill will be
placed on the property in the near fu-
ture. The new discovery has been
christened The Chronicle
The many friends of Mr.. Baisley will
be pleased to learn that he has struck
it rich" The gentleman has probably
done as much as any other man in
Baker county towards advancing the
mining interests of this favored sec
ton, and that he is one of the deserv-
ing ones, all Will admit. May his fond
est expectations be realized.
Mr.. John A. Wilson, who has the
=
the Union Companion Mining company,
is in the city, but will return to that
camp today. He has teams delivering
about Is cords of wood per day at the
mill, besides hauling concentrates to
this city and freight on the return.
The bad condition of the roads make
Mr.. Wilson's work anything but
pleasant, and it taxes the endurance of
man and beast TO meet the require
ments.
T. A. Richard, state mineralogist of
Colorado. and one of the most promi-
nent mining experts in the west, ar
rived in Baker City on Sunday evening
from Denver. On his arrival he met his
brother, Edward Richard, of Berkeley,
Cal, also a mining man, and together
they left for Cornucopia yesterday
morning to inspect the mining prop
critics of the Union Companion Mining
company. Mr. T. A Richard has only
recently returned from Paris, France
and London, England.

From all accounts the Virtue, with a
depth of 700 feet, is looking better than
ever; new ore chutes, wider and richer
than ever before, uncovered and af-
a supply of milling ore that is
phenomenal.
With such a mine right at our doors
and scores of others fast developing
into equally as good properties, no
wonder the people feel the effect of an
ample circulating medium and the
of hard times done away

While there was not much activity
on the floor of the Mining Exchange
yesterday, as far as the transfer of
stocks was concerned, most of the
securities called in the pit received at
tention at the hands of the brokers,
and as a general thing the stocks
maintained the quotations of the pre-
vious call.
Anchor failed to receive a bid or
offer, while Ajax was slumpy and re-
corded sales at declining figures. DAILY

this stock the day before. but inactive
No change was observable in DAILY
West, which withstood the attack of
the bears in good shape. Dalton and
Lark was faVorite and scored good
advances in the bidding, but the low
est offering was at % cents. Geyser
and Galena failed to create any inter-
est and yet these securities were fairly
strong in the quotations. Mercur, al
$6.S5 bid, seemed to have reached its
limit for the time being, but the stock
was firm at this figure. Mammoth de-
veioped strong upward tendencies. and
was wanted at Sl9215. and it is stated
that in the afternoon transfers were
made at s1.9T12. Geyser- Marion was
steady at the usual figures, but failed
to record any sales.
The unlisted securities were not as
active as on the previous day. although
some of the stocks were ready sellers.
Swansea was unchanged in the bid
ding, and yet there was ready demand
for the stock South Swansea was a
favorite with the brokers. and 100
shares changed hands at S1.S5. and at

stock at a less figure We're futile. Lit
lie Pittsburg was in demand at the
closing quotations of the previous call,
and made sales at these figures. Rich
mond and Anaconda also figured in
the dealings Of the hour, but at a slight
decline. Dalton fell off in the bidding,
but was active. Northern Light was
quiet, especially in the bidding, but in
the holdings the stock was firm. Buyer

the Company.

Annual meeting Oh STOCKHOLDERS or
the Company.
The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Antler Mining company
was .,oid yesterday. The report of the
work done on the properties during the
year showed the mine to be in excel
lent condition with large bodies of ore
in sight running from IS to $50 to the
ton in gold and silver, besides some
iron and little lead. The property
is composed of six claims on Lion hill
in the Ophir district, adjoining the
Northern Light, and the stockholders
resolved to continue the work of block
ing out ore with vigor, and number
OF men with w. B. Cowan at their
head. will be put on at once. The indi-
cations are such that as soon as the
snow, " hich is very deep there, goes
away, the Antler will be in a position
to commence shipments of high grade
ore.
The election of directors for the COM
ing year resulted as follows:
Jacob Alt. A. w. Raybould, Thomas
DobsOn. George q. Golding, John W.
Hughes, James Hunter and w. B.

New York, March 11.-At an informal
reception held last night at the Bar
tholdi hotel the Hon. Charles A. Towne
of Minnesota spoke as follows with
reference to the prospects of internal
tional bimetallism:
If the accomplishment of inter-
national bimetallism is expected to
occur With the cooperation of
Great Britain, all hope of it may as
well be abandoned.
IF those who call themselves BIZ
metallistS within the Republican
party are not ready to attempt the
solution of the problem in cOnnec-
ton with Russia, Germany and
France, or with some of the leading
commercial nations, exclusive of
England. then they may as well
stop right where they are"

in sight, and, if anything. the ore in
this property is even richer than that
found in the Copper Queen.
Mr.. Musgrove is interested in a num-
Der of valuable locations, some of
which are located near the Gold Queen
He was rather reticent in speaking of
the merits of these properties, but it is
learned from other sources that they
are as valuable and as promising as
any of the other properties in the dis
trict.
Z desire to say said Mr. Musgrove
in conclusion, that the Blue mountains
have not been half prospected, and 1
believe that in the spring a number of
bonanza mines will be found there The
district is an ideal one and abounds
in water, timber and coal, and the con-
ditions are such that the ores of the
camp can be mined at a cost not to
exceed 81 a ton, although others have
estimated that the cost would not run
over $3.50 a ton. Within two miles of
the Gold Queen mine there are three
coal banks, and fuel is cheap and mex
oensive.''
Mr.. Musgrove looks for great activity
in the Blue mountains during the pres
ent year, and he predicts that this will
come to the front as one of the most
prolific gold camps in the state of
Utah.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-03-12

stated that there was scarcely any
doubt now that there would be plenty
of water in the future, and that the
people of that section were greatly ex-
cited over the find.
The lucky owners of the Crystal
Palace, and the mine is properly
named, are TO be congratulated over
their success, and they deserve all
that is coming TO them, as they have
expended a large amount of money in
the development of the property. and
they took the chances of not finding
anything for their pains and trouble.
