who mysteriously disappeared on March Z.
was found yesterday in the dock.

arated. John T. Wilson had on his person
$500 or 800 in money. 1t was supposed

NEWMAN SISTERS ESCAPADES,
Some Light On the Percentage of an
Abandoned Child.


San Francisco, March St.-The dis
patch from London stating that g.
year-old girl had. been abandoned by its
mother in London, and that the sister of
the mother was the Baroness. Won Bu-
ron, was read with interest here. Bar
oneSS Won Buren, was Daisy Newman of
this city. Her younger sister, Allie,
presumed to be the mother of the little
one abandoned in London, was Mrs.
Currie until She became Mrs. Charles
A. Mautalen. The girls were born in
Mayfeld, this state, and when quite
young they came to San Francisco.
Daisy created sensation by her
beauty and conduct, and finally mar
ried Baron Won Buren,, a Hungarian,
who took her TO Europe. After a. lively
session there, Daisy returned to San
Francisco with Count Juerges, an Aus
TRAN. She was conspicuous at the race
track here for some time, and finally
disappeared again.
Mrs. Newman, the mother of the bar
oness, lives in this city, and when
shown the dispatch said the babe was
not the offspring of Mrs. Currie, as stat
ed in the dispatch, but of another
daughter, whose name she declined to
disclose Mrs. Currie, now Mrs. Maui
tahen, was in London at the time with
her sister, Daisy. but was not the
mother of the child. Mrs. Newman says
that the child was regularly adopted
by the nurse. and in her opinion the
nurse ia now trying to eXtort money
from the Baroness Won Buren,. The rel
ativeS here will not take the girl

sending in about a carload of good fluXing
ores daily.
The Herald is informed that nice ship
ment of hgh-grade ore from the Martha
Washington, in Tintic district, will soon
find its way to the Salt Lake market.
The Star Consolidated which had two

first of the week, has another similar con-
signment on the road or at the sampler.
NJ. w Taylor of mining fame. left for
the south Thursday night for the purpose
of examining copper and other mining
properties in the near vicinity of Milford.
The Boss Tweed marketed a carload of

BUCKsKIN FOUNTAINS COPPER
New Discoveries of the Red Metal In
the Hills Below Kanab.

From Hon. s. A. King it is learned
that with his associates he is inter
ested in new copper discoveries in the
Buckskin mountains not far from
KaHab and that for several weeks past
a force of several men has been at
work in the effort to determine the eX..
tent and value of these copper hnds,
which, from surface indications, give
promise OF permanency and of good
values. as, within the environments OF
the group of claims owned by Mr.. King
and This people, several strong ledges
have been uncovered from which nu-
merous samples of ore have been
taken. which, by fire tests, show metal
lie values of from TO 40 per cent cop
per and from 20 to $50 ounces in silver
20 the ton. and the showing at the
present stage of development is so en-
couraging and gratifying that II Is the
intention to ship a carload of the ore
to Salt Lake at an early day with
which to make various tests and eX-
periments in order to determine the
value of the ore by smelling returns,
and the best methods for its treatment
and reduction, it being arranged that
soon after the consignment is received
and disposed of, Mr.. King, accom-
panied by Judge J. w. Burton, will
make a visit to the property for the
purpose of deciding upon future opera
tions, while it is quite possible that
during the season reduction works, en-
bracing matte furnace or a concen-
traitor. viii be built at the mine, which
is favorably located as to wood, water
and TRANSFORMATION facilities.

STATEMENT FROM WISE.
Charges His Companion With the
Murder of Beasley.

Murder OF BeaSley.
New York. March 31.-Edward Wise,
who is awaiting sentence of death for
the murder of Charles E. Beasley in
this city last November, has almost at
the last moment declared that another
man committed the murder The po-
lice are looking for this man. They re-
fuse to divulge his name. Wise was to
be sentenced this afternoon. Wise de-
clased that he was willing to suffer inn
prisonment for the sake of a. compan-
ion, but now that death confronts him,
he will shield him no longer. He made
a long statement to the district attor-
ney. The police apparently place some
reliance on Wise's story.
Wise is 81 years old and comes of eX-
cellent parentage in Boston He is
well educated and an athlete. He and
several companions came from Boston
to witness a fight at the LenoX Ath-
letic club. He lost his money and be-
came stranded He says he fell in with
bad company. Beasley was sandbagged
on Thirty-eighth street. Wise was
caught running away. He made no de-
NAL of having struck BeaSley. wise
has since admitted that he was present
at the sandbagging, but claims that an
other man, hitherto unmentioned, did
the sandbagging When on trial, Wise
put up no defense. He said he thought
he would only be found guilty of man
slaughter. His mother - said to be re-
sponsible for the convicted mans di-
yulging the name of the alleged sand
.bagger Wise was sentenced to die in
the week beginning May %. The police
have so far been unable to verify his
statement.

me smelter CONSOLIDATION.

1t is the prevailing impression in min
ing and smelling circles that the great
consolidation of all of the smelters of
the United States, exclusive Of the
Guggenheim plants, Will be fully con-
summated and concluded on the 9Th of
this month, upon the final incorpora-
ton of the American Smelling e. Rein
ing company, which will own the aggre-
cation of smelters, in accordance with
information received and already given
extensive publicity in these columns.
While the policy of the new combine
has not been given in detail to the min
ing public as yet. word has gone out
that the consolidation will work very
largely in the interests of ore-producers,
and especially of owners of low-grade
properties. the idea being to encourage
the tonnage and increased output as
largely as possible, one thing being GER
tain, and that is the success of the en-
terprise depends very largely upon be
ing able to handle much larger -Quanti-
ties of mineral than heretofore.

Milwaukee, March 31.-A remarkable
suit has been commenced in the supe-

Der a. similar instance where the jury
men have been sued for damages be-
cause of their verdict, and the outcome
of the suit is awaited with interest and
is causing much discussion.
The original suit which resulted in
the verdict against LeubIow was a re-
markable one in many respects. With
Bertha kiser he was convicted of de-
frauding Louise Trabbold out of $500
and mortgages amounting to 2,00O
Bertha Kiser died suddenly the day af-
ter the sentence was pronounced of

"POLITICAL PRESSURE.

General j. Hall Sypher, attorney for
the Texas cattlemen, confirmed what
MIR. Giddings had said. He said that
while he had not visited General Eagan
with Mr.. Giddings, The had seen him
frequently and talked fully with him
on this subject, in the interest of the
Texas men.
Continuing, General Sypher said that
something was said by General Eagan
concerning a preservative process, but
that he gave it very little attention.
Some days later" General Sypher said,
General Eagdn informed me that ow-
ing to the great differences in price, he
would have to give the refrigerator beef
a trial. Trial was the word he used,''
the witness said, in reply to question
put By Major Lee that General Eagan
had said something about political
pressure" as the reason for the neces-
sity for making the trial, and that he
had said something about his confer

just what he had said on this latter
point witness could not remember, but
he thought Mr.. Giddings had stated it
correctly.
Captain Ashton b ReyI, chief sur

made sick on three different occasions
by eating canned roast beef, and on
one occasion several others who par

very i'll. Soon after this experience he
had found a piece of bacon lying by
the roadside. This he had taken up,

VOLUNTEERS BROUGHT HOME.
Hurried Back From Cuba to Avoid
Quarantine Detention.

Washington, March 31.-So far dur
ing the month of March 1900 troops
have been landed in the United States
from Cuba. This work has required es-
pecial eXpeditionary measures on the
part of the quarantine service, but SO
far all the requirements made upon the
service have been met. The war de-
partment has exercised unusual haste
because of the desire to avoid the ne
cessity of compliance with the order of
the treasury department requiring the
disinfection of all the baggage of re-
turning troops and their equipment
prior to entry.
This has been successfully accom-
plished by the cooperation of the ma
rine hospital service and the quarter
master generals Office, without an ex-
ceDtion.
The arrival of transports at southern
ports has been so arranged as to permit
the disinfection of baggage without
causing undue detention of troops.
Transports carrying troops were sent
in accordance with this arrangement to
the quarantine station at Dry TortugaS
and Blackboard island, and to the Flor
