THE GRAND CENTRAL DIVIDEND
Provo People Elated Over the Success
of This Enterprise.

Provo, June S.-The board of directors
of the Grand Central Mining company
held meeting at the offices of the
Provo Commercial & Savings bank yes
terday and declared dividend of 1215
cents a share. This is the first to be
declared by the company, and the
stockholders, as well as the board of
directors, are eXultant
Manager c. E. Loose reported that
the mine was in a most promising con-
dition
No small amount of credit is due the
Provo mining men for the success
which the Grand Central has met with.
and the energy and business ability of
Mr.. Loose has contributed very largely
to the success of the enterprise. Hav-
ing now succeeded in placing the Grand
Central on a paying basis and made it
one of the greatest mines of the Tin
tic district, Mr.. Loose felt that he was
entitled to a rest, and, at the meeting,
he rendered his resignation as manager.
Lafayette Holbrook, the president of
the company, will hereafter act as
manager of the mine. The company
will soon open elegant offices in the
building owned by Farrer Brothers
company, on street. John r. TweIves
will continue to act as secretary and
treasurer, and will have charge of the
company's offices here in Provo.
Every indication is that the mine will
continue to pay monthly dividends
equal, if not greater, than the one de-
clared Yesterday

INTEREST IN STATFLINE.
The Creole Night-shift Breaks Into
High Grade Ore.

Stateline, Utah, June 6.-Mr. Fisher,
the Chicago capitalist and expert, has
made an examination of the Ofer mine,
and has shipped three tons of average
ore from a 12-foot vein to Goddess re-
duction- works at Phoebe, to make a test
of the same, and should the results be
satisfactory, transfer of the property
is assured. and a mill will be erected
for the working of the ore.
William Brown, while working in the
Creole mine. fell out of the stope and
injured himself internally, but not dan
gerOusly.
A fire broke outsin the woodpile own
ed by A G.. Bast on Wednesday night
last, which destroyed about 20 cords of
wood, and had it not been for the
prompt action of the citizens, the
greater part of the town would have
been destroyed.
The Saturday night shift on the Gre
ole mine, while drifting on the lower
level, ran into a very rich body of ore
some of the rock fairly glistening with
the yellow metal.
Frank Wilson, of the April Fool, at
De Lamar, arrived in camp on Satur-
day last, as also did Ernest Godbe
and his foreman, William Lloyd, and
these gentlemen Immediately went to
work examining and exporting some of
our most promising mining properties.
There is a great deal of development
work row being done on the various
mining claims here, and ore is being
in a number of them, which
show up very satisfactorily and en-
couraging results to the owners.

torted a $1,000 gold brick on Saturday

terday morning from Cherry Creek.
New, where he has been for the past
month, directing operations in the per-
fecting of the North Mountain mill and
in the development of this valuable
gold producer.
This mill, as previously stated in
these columns. was started up about
week or ten days ago, and Mr.. Brown
states that it is running nicely with
good extraction. the plant treating
about so tons of ore daily, which will
carry values running about $11 in gold
to the ton. On his way home. Mr.
Brown made a visit of inspection to

Wells and ElkO. and while but little
work has been done in the development
of properties in this camp, he was we'll

ports where they were mounted.
Senator Tillman was one of the most
persistent advocates of sending guns
to these little coast towns, and sue
ceeded in getting the mouths of Cape
Fear river well protected Other south
ern senators presented strong argu-
ments and used such persuasion for
defending ports in their states that
soon all the siege guns available were
mounted on improvised emplacements
All this was accomplished at con-
siderable outlay of money. Lately or
ders came to ship every field gun to
Tampa and other ports where troops
are to embark for Cuba, and the work
of removing the pieces was begun.
Senators are now protesting against
their removal, but they have been as
sured that with Cervera in Santiago
and the Cadiz fleet too decrepit to cross
the ocean, the most exposed port need
have no fear from Spanish lombard
ment. If any of the enemy attack
these ports, the war officials say that
the old smooth-bores would keep off
any ships that would get close enough
inshore to operate their guns success
fully.

INSURGENTS GAIN A VICTORY
BATTLE FOUGHT IN
SANTIAGO PROVINCE.
Spanish Force Was Double That of
the Cubans and Losses Were
Heavy On Both Sides.

New York, June S.-News has just
reached the Cuban junta in this city
of a victory achieved by the Cuban
forces over a division of the Spanish
army at Jiguani, province of Santiago.
! on May %. 1t was one Of the most de-
cisive battles which the patriots have
! gained in many months, and the most
/ important one since the war was de-
clared by the United States against
Spain.
1 A column of Spanish soldiers, 1900
strong, acting under orders from Ha-
vana TO abandon the interior towns
and advance toward the coast, evac-
uated the town of La Piedra, after
having destroyed their fortificationS to
prevent them from falling into the
hands of the insurgents, and camped
at Jiguani, where they expected to re-
main awaiting further orders. They
were also joined there by a detach-
ment of 800 Spanish soldiers from
Santa Rita, and the two forces were
united in camp at Jiguani.
The SpaniardS were surprised on the
morning of May % by being attacked
by a division of the First corps be-
longing to General Calixto Garcia's
command, under the leadership of Col
Onel Jose Jesus Rabi. With him also
were Colonel Lora, commanding the
First cavalry, and Colonel Montaire of
the infantry regiment Cuba Libre.''
The Cubans altogether numbered a lit
tie more than 1000 men, while the
Spaniards had fully twice that num-
Der.
The Cubans advanced in good order,
being well equipped with arms and
ammunition, and took the enemy COM
pletely by surprise. At the start the
Spaniards scattered, but afterward
made an effort to rally their forces.
They only succeeded in being able to
retreat in regular order TO the village
of Palma After six hours hard fight
ing at Palma, which is only a short
distance from Jiguani, the Spaniards
raised a flag of truce and expressed
themselves as being willing to surren-
der. Terms were speedily arranged,
Spanish colonel, seven captains and
several other officers, besides 103 sol !
diers. The Spanish loss amounted to
76 dead, besides a large number who /
were wounded. Included in the Span !
ish losses were 10 officers.
The Cubans sustained a heavy loss, /
but it was considerably smaller than |
the Spaniards. 1t is reported that there |
were 45 killed, including five officers, |
and about 60 wounded. After the bat
tie which was one of the bitterest of |
the war, the Cubans returned to Jig
uani. There they recovered a large
quantity of arms and ammunition from
the deserted Spanish camp, together
with provisions and supply wagons.

SIEGE GUNS FOR CUBA.
Every Available Field Piece Is Or
dered to TAMPA.

New York, June S.-The siege guns
that are going to Cuba with the army
of invasion have nearly all come from
small ports and from many cities of
considerable Importance, says the
Washington correspondent of the Tri-
bune.
The plan of mounting these guns
was carried out by General Wilson.

PINKERTON AT WASHINGTON.
His Mission Was to Assert His
Loyalty to the Government.

Washington, June Sin reference to
the repeated assertions that William
Pinllerton of Chicago had been in
Washington to confer with the war and
navy departments in reference to spies
il this country, it is authoritatively
stated at the treasury department that
Mr.. Pinkerton received mo- such call as
has been reported. He visited Wash
ington principally for the purpose, it
is said, of assuring the various heads
of departments that his agency was
not engaged in working for Spain.
The fact that his people had been
employed to make Investigations in
connection with the filibustering eXpe-
ditions before the present war broke
out, and the necessary intimate rela-
tions that had existed between the
agency and the Spanish representatives
in this country led to the belief in some
directions that he had continued in
Spanish employ after hostilities began
and it was for the purpose of explaining
the exact attitude of his agency, and
of expressing his loyalty to the govern
ment, it is said, that Mr.. Pinkerton
came to Washington.

Unwatering Leadville Mines.

Denver Republican: The executive
committee of the Home Mining com
pany of Leadville, organized for the
purpose of unwatering the downtown
mines in the Leadville district, came
to Denver yesterday for the purpose of
closing the deal with the Smith Moffat
combination, whereby the pumps at the
Bon Air and PenrOse shafts will pass
into the hands of the Home COMPANY.
The entire capital stock of the company
$50, 000-has been subscribed, and the
papers are now being prepared and will
probably be signed this afternoon AS
soon as the papers are signed, work
will be commenced in preparation for
the active work of unwatering 1t is
thought that the water will be entirely
drained within the next three months,
and that it will be lowered sufficiently
in six weeks to permit the commence
ment of operations on some of the
mines.

mined and milled at an expense not ex-
ceeding so cents a ton.
The little 5-stamp mill on the ground
is treating % tons of quartz a day, at
high saving, and the enterprise has
been so successful so far that the COM
pany has made arrangements for the
addition of 10 more stamps, and the eX-
cavat:on for the increase of capacity
has already been made, and the timbers
for the framing are already on the
ground, the expectation being that in
the near future the plant will be treat
ing at least 100 tons of ore daily, and
that the company will make a record
as a dividend-payer.
Mr.. Brent is interested with Will and
Hal Brown in the Suffer creek placers,
and while the diggings have not been
worked since passing into their hands,
strong quartz ledge on the property
has been quite extensively developed,
disclosing a fine body of gold ore.

Mammoth Record Notes.

Since the LIST of the month the Grand
Central has been shipping on an aver
age of three cars of ore daily.
S. S. Jones has already made one
shipment from that portion of the
Utah mine which he has leased, and
another shipment is ready to be
loaded.
Since air connections have been made
between the Sioux compressor and the
OpeX, the development on the Tonnes
see Rebel, which is bling worked
through the Opex, is prospecting very
satisfactorily.
An excavation is now being made for
an ore bin. which is to be erected at
the Grand Central mine. "A chute will
then be constructed to carry the ore
from the bins to the wagons, some dis
lance below. This arrangement will
avoid the necessity of the wagons max

THREE CHILDREN ROASTED.
Eleven-year-old Girl Who Proved
Herself a Heroine.

Pittsburg, June S.-Three children met
death in a frightful manner last even
ing, in Allegheny. By the explosion of

and the children burned so terribly that
they died in a short time. The victims
We're: Ella, Edith and Harvill Watts,

body she tried to carry her baby
brother to a place of safety.
Mrs. Watts was also burned in try
ing to save her children.
The children were playing in an out
house in the yard, and one of them
struck a match. In the same room was
a large can containing two gallons of
oil. When the match was thrown down.
it dropped into the can, and the explo-
sion followed instantly
