MINERS HOLD A MEETING.
But Refuse to Make Public the Pro
ceedinCS

Park City, July pa special meet
ing of the miners union was held last
night. officers of the union, when inter-
viewed, had nothing TO say as to what
action was taken. The report is cur
rent today that it was decided at the
meeting TO reject the cut in wages by
the Ontario and DAILY, and that the
secretary was instructed to so notify
Superintendent Chambers. The financial
secretary of the union would neither
affirm nor deny the report, but stated
there is no bad news If the report
is true, and it is quite generally credit
ed, it means that the union men will go
out on Aug. l, provided no concessions
are made by the companies. The union,
which numbers about 600, is composed
principally of Ontario and DAILY men,
Several days ago, at a meeting of the
Ontario and DAILY employees it was de-
cided to remain at work at the new
schedule. The managers of the COM
panies are dealing with their employees
and not with the union, so that it re-
mains TO be seen whether or not strike
of the union men means that all the
employees will go out. None of the
mill men at the Ontario and Marsac
mills are members of the. union.
The meeting of the union men last
night, at which il is said about 70 men,
bers were present, is reported to have
been exceedingly warm. The recording
secretary, c.. A. Ormiston, handed in

ANOTHER WATER SYSTEM.
Independent Pipe Line For the Great
Golden Gate.


The Herald is informed on good au-
thority that Captain ]. R. De Lamar
has decided tc derive the water supply
for the Golden Gate mill, at Mercu.,
by means of an independent system
which will be solely owned and con-
trolled by himself
With this in view, the captain some
time ago purchased the Dalton farm
and water rights on .Ophir creek, and
yesterday surveyors were in the field
making preliminary surveys for the
proposed system from the millsite to
Ophir creek, and it is stated that the
line will be completed and the water
turned in by the time the mill is COM
pleted.
This plant, as The Herald readers
well know, will be a magnificent struc-
ture, and the contracts for its erection
have all been let, while nearly all of
the machinery has been ordered.
Work in its construction is being
pushed as rapidly as possible, and il
is believed that it will be ready for
ore treatment by the time specified in
the contracts.
The grading for the spur from the
main line of the Salt Lake 6, Mercur
railroad has been completed and if the
ties arrive in time the line will be fin
ished by Saturday next, when the ma
terial for the mill can be delivered on
the ground, thus saving the trouble and
expense of a wagon haul.
The people of Mercur are elated over
the activity displayed by Captain De
Lamar and his associates, now that the
erection of the mill has been fully de-
cided upon, and are confident that the
camp will double its size within the
next few years.

A session of the state supreme court

Chief Justice Zane and Justices Bartch
and Miner on the bench, for the pur-
pose of hearing arguments in the as
sessment reduction case appealed from
the decision of Judge Norrell in the
district court, which was that the
county commissioners had no power to
reduce the assessment as made by the
county assessor unless on the appIi-

were made by Messrs. A. Howat and
R. W. Young, and for the respondent,
Salt Lake City, Attorney Mckay and
Assistant City Attorney Hampstead.
The facts in the case are that the
county commissioners, sitting as a
board of equalization, on their own
motion and without any application
from the property owners. made a re-
duction of from 20 to 40 per cent on

property owners and on a good and
sufficient showing, made application to
the district court for a writ of prohibi-

An important deal was consummated
in this city yesterday whereby a large
interest in the hex mine in Detroit
district was transferred to two well
known mining men, in consequence of
which it is believed that this splendid
property will soon make a record as a
wealth producer and dividend payer
that Utahnians will point TO with be-
coming pride.
The parties interested in the deal
are Dave Evans and c. E. Loose, who
stand high in mining circles in this
country, the former buying the inter-
est IN the mine formerly owned by S.
+. Mount the veteran miner, while
the latter secured the stock in the
company held by Hon. Allen C. Camp
bell
The reasons for the transfer were
not made public, but it is understood
that Messrs. Evans and Loose are well
pleased with the property, and also
that MesSrs. Mount and Campbell did
not lose any money in the transaction
The hex, since its discovery and de-
Velopment, has experienced quite
checkered career, as it was on the
strength of its immense deposits of
lngton smelter was originally erected.
The upper workings of the mine
were Quilted by the smelling company,
who worked it on a bond and lease,
and when the owners came into pos
session again a long tunnel was start
ed to cut the ledge al a greater depth.
Thls work was done under the super
vision of Mr.. Mount, and when the
connection was made a magnificent
body of pay ore was disclosed to view
and it was demonstrated that the de-
post was permanent and also that it
was practically ineXhaustible.
With the change in the management
it is understood that it is the intention
to push work in the OPERATION and de-
velopment of the property, and that as
soon as connections are made with the
lower tunnel and the upper workings,
which will be in about ITO feet more in
the upraise, the company intends to
begin regular and heavy ore ship
ments.
1t can truly be said that the future
of the mine is assured, as the new
owners are men who will push work
without any let up until the property
demonstrates its value as dividend
payer.
A great deal is due to Mr.. Mount for
his untiring efforts in bringing the
Ibex to the front, as he has done he
roic work in this direction and has
hung on when others became disheart-
ened and were willing and even anX-
ious to drop the enterprise.

very high in gold.

johnson. Chaplin & Binford, owners
of the Black Crook on Rock creek, are
very much pleased over their new find
in the old tunnel. They cut few feet
TO the right of the face of the tunnel
and were surprised at getting into
body of ore assaying higher than any
other ore boeS in the camp. for the
same size. Assays have been had CIV
ing 3S ounces of gold per ton besides
carrying a large amount of silver. The
one runs from to IA inches in width
They have closed down for a short
time in order to put in cars and track
and to retimber. This claim has al
ways been considered a big PROPOSE
ton, but the new discovery places It
beyond anything in the district.
The Dewey people are working all
the men room can be found for on the
Easter tunnel and Judas shaft. The
shaft is being sunk and is over 200 feet
in depth. At the 200-foot level the
ledge was cut and they are now drift
ing on it both ways and have a inches
of first-class ore suitable for shipment.
Z. H. Dewey and Mr.. Guffy have just
that the Judas ore was beyond their
spending so much money here in the
way Of development is very encour-
aging to the entire camp.
A shaft is being sunk on the ledge
in the lower tunnel on the Ida and is
in good ore, having two separate bod
les, one carrying over $50 ounces of
silver and one ounce of gold, and being
fully is inches wide. The other carries
over six ounces of gold and only seven
ounces of silver. The silver ore is a
very hard quartz; the gold ore is a sui
)hide and over II inches wide. A
steam hosting plant will be put on
soon and the ore shipped direct to
;melters as both bodies will bear ship
nent and pay a large profit. This
company has done more development
han any other company in the dis
rict and every portion of the works is
imbered and in first-class shape. The
X L and Ida will soon be the largest
producers in tie camp.

with a great deal of interest by bust

Manager K. C. Chambers. of the On

union, stated that he had been advised
of its decision, but he said it was a

Word was received in the city yes

ager of the property of the Indian

that it was difficult TO estimate the

the ore often showing free gold in the
native state. On tais ground the main
shaft was started in the country rock,
but ii was not long before the vein was
encountered on its dip, and as sinking
progressed the ore zone became larger
and larger until at the 10-foot level the
entire bottom of the shaft was ina
good graoe of milling ore.
Soon after beginning work in the de-
Velopmenr of the Ute a parallel vein
was discovered so feet down the noun
tain side. \ shaft was started on this,
and when tne bottom was on the level
with the workings in the other shaft
a crosscut was started from both with
the view of connecting the two for air
and 10 facilitate operations These
drifts OF crosscuts have already been
driven IL for quite a distance. and
while the desired connection has not
been made as yet, they have been run
all the way in firs1-class ore and the
indications now are that the interven-
ing space between the bottom of the
TWO shafts-S0. feet-is one big body of
ore that viii carry average values OF at
least $50 to the ton.
This discovery is causing consider
able excitement in mining circles in
the south, and the officers of the com
pany would not make an even exchange
for the best Klondyke proposition if
they had TO so 20 Alaska TO operate
ii, as they are fully convinced that in
this Indian Creek mine they have the
making of a bonanza, and there are
many others, who are acquainted with
the property that are of the same opin-
ion.
Such a body of ore as this is GER
tainly something to talk about, and
shows what intelligent prospecting and
development VIII DO; while il also dem

that right here in Utah there are anv
