According to a dispatch to the Asso-
ciated Press from Pekin last Friday, the
action of the Italian government had
caused great excitement there, not only
among the Chinese, but also among the
foreign diplomatists, the Chinese being
convinced that Great Britain was chief
ly responsible for the demand, and that
1t had been made to emphasize Great
Britain's displeasure at the turn which
the northern railroad question had talk
en-. The representative of great pow
er, according to the same Dispatch was
reported to have said that the moment
had arrived for international control of
China, and it was also asserted that if
the policy of spheres Of influence" was
to be inaugurated the United States
would doubtless have a say in the mat
ter with a probable preference for the
province of Chilli.

There seems 10 be a desire on the

Rich Ore From the Isabella.

AT a meeting of the board of directors
of the Daly- West Mining company held
yesterday afternoon it was decided to
nav an extra dividend of 90 cents a
share. or s0,000, this month as a holi-
day gift to the stockholders. The ex-
ira dividend will be paid on the goth.
with the regular, and the books close
tonight. With the Silver Kings extra
of $4,000 and the Swanseas extra of
$1,000, the sum Of $4,000 goes into the
channels of trade from Utah's mines
this month simply to provide spending
money for the holidays.
On the stock exchange yesterday
forenoon, Daly-West opened at s12. 26
ana sold as low as s12 Is, and after call
sales were made as low as $i2. AS
soon in the afternoon as it became
known that an extra dividend was
coming there was skirmishing all along
the line for the stock and sales were
recorded as high as $12. IS, though most
sales were made under So. so. Some
400 shares changed hands in the fore
noon and curb sales during the after
noon probably amounted to 1000 shares
more.
Park City mines this month contrib
ute the splendid sum of s175, 900 to divi-
dend payments and there is no reason
to doubt that commencing early in the
new year more than that amount will
be paid out regularly every month. The
Anchor mine is reported to be looking
better than at any time for several
years, and it is counted on to get into
the dividend column during the year.
The Ontario company can pay larger
dividends, unless the mana cement con-
templates large expenditures for mills
and other improvements, and there is
little question but the dividend of 10
cents declared this month will be the
last OF that size

DENVER MINING MAN HERE
Byron E. Shear Arrives to Look At
ter Utah Interests.

Byron E. Shear, the well known min
tag man of Denver, arrived in the city
yesterday afternoon and will remain
several days to look over his mining in
terests in this state. Mr.. Shear is one
of the owners of the Rob Roy group in
Bingham, which was sold a few months
ago for a very neat sum of money
Some development work has been done
on the property since the exchange, but
at the present time it is lying idle Mr.
Shear expects to visit the property on
this trip and will probably take steps
toward the early resumption of work
The Watts group in Tintic is also be,
ing developed under the direction of
Mr.. Shear and his associates. A force
of men is now employed there in run
ming a tunnel to intercept the main
ledge. The tunnel will have to be
driven long distance yet to accom-
plish results, but indications are said
10 be very favorable for ore. Mr. Shear
is undecided whether he will visit Tin
tic or not.
Speaking of conditions in Colorado,
Mr. Shear says they We're never mora
prosperous. Denver is pushing along in
the usual way, but over in Cripple
Creek everybody is busy. Last months
output Of gold was over 81, SOC, 600. The
Isabella mine is making a great record
and is producing some of the richest ore
ever sent out of the camp. Mr.. Shear
is enc of many who thinks the future
of Utah is something great. He does
not understand why ii is. but Denver
papers seldom have anything to saw
about the mining interests OF this state.

BONDED FOR 100000.
Old Wasatch Mine Tied Up For Two
Years.

Under a lease and bond covering a
period of two years, John ]. Kearns
and other Parkites recently tied up
the old Wasatch group of twelve pat
ented claims belonging to the S. P.
Hoyt estate. The terms 'of the lease
require that Is per cent royalty on all
cres sold snail be paid the owners and
in case the bond is taken up. $50, 600
shall be paid to the estate for the mine.
The property is located directly east
OF the New York group and in early
days produced some very fine ore.
Thousands of dollars have been ex-
pended on the property, which was one
of the earliest located in the camp and
under the guidance of Mr.. Kearns, who
has taken personal charge of opera
tions, it is believed the old mine will
be brought to the front as a producer
early in the new year. At present a
small force is engaged in repairing the
old tunnels, drifts, etc, and by the
tine supplies can be taken Zip in the
spring. every thing will be in readiness
for a lively CAMPAIGN

Louise S. Directors Place the Mine
In His Charge.

AT q meeting of the directors of the
-.1ouise S. Mining company, held We'd
nesday night, Willard f. Snyder was
selected to manage the property, which
is located directly south of the Silver
SHIELD 1T Bingham. The property has
been aoeTsloped by two tunnels and a
SHAFT, the upper tunnel having been
driven in on the vein, while the lower
one was sent in distance of 500 feet
alongside of the ledge. During the
winter Mr. Snyder proposes to make
connections by upraising from cross
cuts from the lower tunnel, first with
the bottom of the shaft and then with
the upper tunnel. This will not only
provide the mine with good air, but will
place the mine IN shape for steady pro-
duction. Another car of ore will be
shipped from the property next week.
