HALE & NoRCROSS COMPROMISE
Final Settlement of the Famous Min
ing Suit In Sight.

San Francisco, June 6.-Rumors
were rife on the streets today to the
effect that the famous Hale & Norcross
case was about to be compromised.
Much color is given to the compro-
mise theory by proceedings occurring
before the state supreme court, sitting
in banc, this morning. Attorney Gar
rett McEnerney, representing NJ. w.
Fox and the other stockholders, who
filed the original suit against Alvinza
HayWardS and the w. S. Hobart eS-
tate, made a motion that the supreme
court issue an order amending the last
decree rendered in the case by the SUI
perior court, to the effect that the
Judgment awarded the stockholders
for SAT-, 6S3, with interest, be stricken
out, the only stipulation being that
the defendants pay the entire costs,
amounting to about $1,000. Attorney
McEnerney argued that the Judgment
for $4,000 placed all the cost on the
defendants. The defense was willing
to admit this but mildly objected to
payment of $1,000 costs on the second
Judgment for S417 1853, even though the
stockholders We're willing to waive any
claims, presumptive or real.
The matter was argued at some
length and was taken under advise
ment by the court. Should Mr.. Nc
Enerney's motion be granted. the Hale
& Norcross suit will then have been
forever closed and one of the most in
teresting and sensational cases ever
tried in this state at last be brought
to an end. Stockholders are on the
anxious seat and are holding their
stock for an expected jump. In some
quarters the compromise is looked
upon as a stock jobbing enterprise

Mr.. Pettigrew (Sil. Rep, S. ID, of the
Indian affairs committee, called up the
bill for the protection of the people
of the Indian Territory. The bill,
which relates to. the allotment of lands
in seyeralty to the Indians of the terri
tory, was under discussion until 2
O'Clock when it was displaced by the
unfinished business, the bill to provide
for taking the 18th and subsequent CEN
suses.
Pending the discussionkof the meas
ure, the senate concurred i'm the house
amendments to. the bill FOR the Drotec-
ton Of homestead settlers who render
services in the present war against
Spain.
Mr.. Garter, chairman of the census
committee, made an extended statement
concerning the object of the bill, and
as early a date as practicable. AS pro-
vided for in section "a of the bill, the
18th census shall be restricted to in
quiries relating to population, to NOR
tally, to the products of agriculture
and to manufacturing and mechanical
establishments.
All questions as to quantity and
value of crops shall relate to the year
ending Dec. 81 next preceding the emu

shall relate exclusively to the fiscal

The report was well received by the
members of the organization, and, on
motion, it was unanimously adopted.
The secretary then presented for the
consideration of the members a COM
parative statement showing the trans
actions on the floor of the exchange
for the year 1897, as compared with the
first five months for the year 1898, the
comparison certainly being largely in
favor of the dealings so far this year,
and the showing would certainly indi
cate what is universally known in Utah
mining circles, viz: That the exchange
is rapidly growing in usefulness and
public favor, while the business trans
actions on the board are steadily in
creasing and at the same time the
membership list has almost reached
the limit.
With conditions as they now exist
it can readily be seen that Salt Lake
is rapidly growing into a mining share
center of considerable magnitude, and
the total transfers in this line and the
handsome amount in hard cash re-
sulting from transactions is enough to
convince the most skeptical that the
exchange is one of the most important
business institutions in the city, and
that through its means a large amount
of money is placed in circulation in the
state of Utah.
The comparative statement, which
was adopted by the board, and ordered
given to the press of the city for pub

sALTPETER DEPOSITS.
Immense Deposits of This Commodity
Found Near Salt Lake City.

Found Near Salt Lake City.
Last week The Herald made mention
of the fact that deposits of saltpeter
had been found almost within the linn
its of Salt Lake City, but at that time
the parties interested in the important
discovery were reticent as regards the
details of the find, as they were de-
sirous of completing their preliminary
work, as by law required, before Civ
ing publicity to their doings in the
premises.
Now, however, The Herald is inform
ed that there is no need of further
secrecy in the matter, and it is given
out that the discovery was made about
II miles southeast of this city, and
only mile and a quarter south of
Mill Creek canyon, the deposit being
mammoth in its dimensions, as it is
all Of 100 feet wide, and can be traced
for a distance of 1880 feet on the sur
face, the ledge cropping boldly and
standing up in places quite promi-
nently.
The discovery was made some time
ago, by Otto Hudson, of mining fame,
who was prospecting in that locality
for the precious metals at the time.
but as the deposit was an extremely
large one, although he was ignorant as
to it's character or value, he decided to
make a test of the substance, assays
n ade in Denver and San Francisco
proving it to be saltpeter, running from
20 to IS per cent pure, and upon de-
termining its value, three locations

The mineral, according to Mr.. Hud-
son, exists in belts or zones, about 30
feet in width, the veins being divided
by layers of altered lime. about two
and a half feet thick, and as the de-
post has been prospected for distance
of 1,500 feet as well as across the belt
in numerous places. there is no doubt
ing the fact that the commodity exists
in ipexhaustible quantities, and in or
der tc work it properly a strong COM
pany is now being formed, and it will
not be long now before machinery will
be erected on the ground in order to
handle the saltpeter commercially.

Washington, June 6.-Beyond the pas

SUNBEAM ON THE UPGRADE.
Business Lively On the Floor of the
Mining Stock Exchange.

The week on the floor of the ex-
change opened up with marked activ-
ity, and considerable interest was TAX
en- in stock transactions, the unlisted
securities doing the bulk of the BUSH
ness of the call. @
Bullion Beck was a, favorite and was
steady. although failing to participate
in the days transactions Centennial
\ Eureka exhibited signs OF an advance,
noting gains in the bidding, with the
stock strong in the offerings. Nothing
was done in GeySer- Marion, which was
steady at previous quotations. Mercur
chronicled the first sale of the hour,
100 shares changing hands at S7.s5.
Northern Light continued its down
ward course and was unloaded at fig
ures given below, the impression being
that it will go still lower during the
week. Sacramento registered sales
and was firm at the closing quotations.
Sunbeam was really the feature of
the call, and although it was beared
after the first transfer, was made, 1t
closed at figures in advance of the
selling quotation of Saturday last.
Chloride Point was quite popular and
occupied considerable time during the
call, closing strong above the 9O-cent
mark. Dexter experienced bear at
tack and made a transfer at S1.121s. A
block of Dalton changed hands at the
close of the call, winding up the bust
ness of the day. although new quota
tons were established in other securi-
ties, Grand Central being rather weak
and on the down grade. Swansea
made marked advances, and, al
though wanted at stiff figures, there
were no sellers in the pit. South
Swansea was also strong.
The closing quotations were as fol-
lows:
