LITIGATION OVER HOT SPRINGS
MONROE IS THE SCENE OF WAR
FOR THEIR POSSESSION.
Claimed That They Are Valuable and
That Original Locators Have Not
Kept Up Assessment Work.
Richheld, Aug. 12.-There has been a

Richfield, Aug. 12-There has been a
new law suit started in Richfield with
in the past week. The name of the case
is H. E. Lisonbie VS.. T. NJ. Hayden,
Frank j. McCoslin and G. 3. Loring.
The plaintiff in the case is a wealthy
sheepman of Monroe, the first two
named defendants are cattle and sheep
buyers from King City, Mo-, and the
last named defendant is a physician
from Monroe. Rapp & Bean are for
the plaintiff and j. B. Jennings for the
defendants.
The three defendants were seen for
The Herald last night, and the follow
ing is their side of the case:
In Monroe there are two hot springs.
One is owned and used by Thomas
Cooper for bathing purposes, and the
other is owned by H. E. Lisonbie, the
plaintiff in the case. Mr.. Lisonbie
located his spring in 1894 under the
placer mining law, and at once erected
buildings suitable for the dipping Of
sheep. For the past four years the
property has been used for that pur-
pose by sheep owners far and near. The
kept up his assessment work, and
therefore located the property under
the regular ledge mining law.
LiSonbie had a restraining order is
sued enjoining the three locators from
doing any further work or in any way
interfering with his property until the
hearing of the case in court, which
date was set for next Monday. Aug. To-
There is no doubt but that the spring
in itself is a fortune. as the entire hill
is a mass of red oxide of iron, which
is 80 per cent pure. Last summer Max
Sohr of Salt Lake City had the prop
erty leased and from it shipped three
carloads of the mineral to reduction
works, where it was made into mineral
paint
Hayden and McCoslin while here
have bought two trains of sheep and
cattle, and will start with them for
Kansas City tomorrow, to be absent
from this place about 20 days, when
they will return, and if they are per-
nitted will start extensive work on the
spring at once

THEY WANT WATER.
The People of Sugar Ward Have a
Grievance

Salt Lake City is not the only place that
is suffering for water. The residents of
Sugar ward bench, north and east of the
state prison, get their water from the
Kennedy ditch, but the supply is growing
less and less. Those residing under the
Kennedy ditch believe that the conditions
prevailing call for a remedy which will
give them larger percentage of the wa
tiers OF Parley'S canyon creek. meeting
OF the persons in interest was held Friday
evening, to devise a plan for relief Some
OF the more radical ones favored appeal
ing TO the courts for a larger share than
conservative counsel prevailed, and on
suggestion of Councilman Siddoway, who
attended the meeting, a committee of
three, with James McGhie as chairman,
was appointed to present their grievance
to the city council Tuesday evening.
Never before have the Sugar bench peo-
the contract with the city, whereby the
compliments receive a fifth of Farley S
creek water, 2 per cent more, in fact,
than they are entitled to, the city taking
the balance in exchange for water furn-
iShed from the canal. 1t is doubtful if
any complaint would have been heard this
year were il not for the scarcity, but the
grievance has been accelerated since the
Until few weeks ago the measurements
have always been inaccurate. Specifically,
the Sugar ward bench residents charge
that the city mas been Negligent in per-
mittinS persons TO cultivate land in Par
ley'S canyon and to use water to which
they had no right, all of which has tended
to make the Kennedy ditch pIn low, and
with the increased evaporation and seep-
age has made the supply for Sugar ward
unreasonably short.
The grievance of the Sugar ward peo-
pie serves to again emphasize the neces-
sity of Salt Lake City and also of resi-
dents of the southeast bench bestirring
themselves TO acquire more water rights
and an increased supply from Mill creek
and Big Cottonwood by exchanging canal
water.

BACK FROM NEVADA.
]. L. Gray Has Been experimenting
Operations In the Dexter.


After an absence of five or six months,
]. L. Gray of the law firm of Booth. Lee
& Grey, returned yesterday from Nevada,
as noted yesterday, where he has been su-
perintending operations in the famous
Dexter mine, in which ne is a part owner.
Specimens of the rich ore which has
been taken from the mine were on exhibit
I ton at the session of the International
Mining congress and attracted attention
by their richness, and besides this the
property is well known in this section.
Mr.. Gray reports the mine to be in eX-
cellent condition and says the develop
ment which has been going on has re-
suited adyantageously to the owners. who
are becoming better pleased with the same
as time goes by.
While absent ne has personally given
attention TO all that has been done and
the result of mis- visit Is such that he will
doubtless return later on and attend to
some further details concerning the work
Ing of the property.
Mr.. Gray has lost a few pounds of su-
perfous flesh during his absence, but in
lieu of the pale, Office cast of countenance
has acquired a rudy glow which makes
him look healthy and hearty. He says
he never felt better during his life and
advises all lawyers who have mines to
abandon their legal business and go
manage the properties.

amount it is possible to spend but dainti-

downward. the other, alternate rows Of
lace and embroidery insertions. the en-
