MORE HONOR TO HEROES.
Jewish Order Pays High and Worthy
Tribute to Volunteers.

The Hebrew portion of the communi-
ty had two representatives in the Utah
artillery, and in their honor a banquet
was given at the st. James hotel last
evening by B. F. Peixotto Lodge No.

The returned heroes who were feted by
their klnSman were Sergeant Emil Leh-
man and Corporal Louis E. Kahn of
battery A. Ellis Freed, who enlisted
with the Utah cavalry troop came in
for a share of the honors.
The dining hall, with it's well-laden
feast table and the festoons of national
colors, was a sight dear to a soldiers
memory. Fragrant flowers and sweet
orchestral music completed the charm
ing scene.
After the first few courses had been
served Toastmaster William Graupe
made a welcoming speech, which was
responded to by Volunteers Lehman
and Kahn, the latter a native son of
Utah.
Responses were given to toasts and
sentiments as follows; Our Country"
Joseph Boehmer; Utah." Morris Som
mer; The 3. B. Order" Albert Graupe;
The Flag" Oliver Boehmer; THE
Family" Joseph Bauer and Mrs.
Emanuel Kahn; THE Ladies'" Isdor
Lederman and Miss Rose Goldberg;
Utah Batteries William Waters
Visiting Brothers. NJ Wertheimer:
absent Brothers" Herbert Hirsch-
man; Our Congregation" Herman
Bamberger.
All the sentiments uttered breathed
the spirit of true patriotism, and the
boys who so valiantly indicated their
devotion to their country by the heroic
part they took with the Utah batteries
in the Philippine war. We're lavishly
praised.
Seated around the banquet board
were the following guests:

Millionaire Mine Owner Discusses
Red Metal Boom.
SENTIMENT IN EUROPE
FOREIGNERS THINK AMERI-
CANS MANIPULATE MARKET.
Captain De Lamar Denies the Report
OF the Sale of His Mercur Mines
Says the Rothschilds Are Not
Buying Anything-Will Examine
His Properties.

After a four months absence in the
east and at London and Paris. Captain
j. r. De Lamar. the millionaire
mine-owner, returned 70 Salt Lake yes
terday and with his little daughter,
maid and servants. registered at the
Knutsford. Mr.. De Lamar is in the
best of health and several pounds
heavier than when he left here last
spring.
When seen at his apartments last
evening the captain was surrounded by
his business family and was only able
to give few minutes of his time to an
interview.
He stated there was absolutely no
foundation for the report that he con-
templated diSpoSing of his property at
Mercur to the Rothschilds or anyone
else. Paying his respects to the great
London bankers, Mr.. De Lamar said
they never bought anything. They
were probably interested a little in
some of the numerous exploration COM
panies and in some cases their interests
might be in the nature of investments,
but in most cases they became identi-
fed with them in order to keep track
of their financial condition as much as
anything else.
Boom In Copper.
Discussing or commenting on the
copper mining industry at the present
high market price of the red metal,
Captain De Lamar said that the i'm
preston prevailed abroad that the prizes
was purely fictitious; that it was
manipulated by spectators on this side
of the water and that no amount OF
argument could apparently convince
them to the contrary. He had pointed
out to people on the other side that
America produced more than half the
great demand for it here precluded its
export. He had explained the new uses
to which it was being put and the fact
that the older mines had about reached
the zenith of their prOductiveneSS. but
the idea that the price was altogether
speculative could not be shaken
High Price Will Continue.
Coming a little nearer home, the cap
tain said that just before coming west
he had had a conversation with the
vice president of the Calumet and Hec-
la company and that gentleman be-
lieved the present price OF copper would
be maintained for at least another
twelve or eighteen months, and he
thought there would be no material de-
cline for a much longer period. Cap
tain De Lamar said that it had been
discovered that aluminium could be
profitably and advantageouSiy subSti-
tuted for copper wire in the transmits
sion of electricity, and the former met
al was now being extensively used as a
roofing material in place of tin. This
was particularly true in cases where
large buildings were being constructed
and on account of its rust-resisting
qualities, looked to see it gain in
favor very rapidly.
The captain closed the interview by
stating that ne would likely be here
for week or ten days. when he would
leave to look after his business affairs
in Nevada and else . here. He was not
prepared last evening to discuss his
Utah interests.

RYAN GETS DECISION.
Bests Moffatt In Twenty-round Go at
Dubuque.

Dubuque Ia, Aug. 31.-Tommy Ryan
was given the decision over Jack Moi
fatt at the end of a twenty-round bout
here tonight. Ryan had his opponent
going in the thirteenth round and
could have easily put him out. He let
down, however, and made no attempt
to end the fight. Ryan did not show a
mark, while Moffatt's nose and mouth
bled freely and his breast and neck
were skinned from the constant jabbing
he received. The 5000 spectators were
disguised because Ryan did not extend
himself. Up to the thirteenth round
the men gave a pretty exhibition and
Ryan had all the best of it.
In the preliminary bout between
George Kerwin of Chicago and James
Sellers (colored) Of Marshalltown, Ia,
Sellers seconds threw up the sponge
at the end of the seventh round. 1t
was a ridiculous exhibition. Kerwin,
as a ring freak, met his match, and
the spectators enjoyed their antics
hugely.

Ogden, Aug. 31.-The Ogden boys met
with a shut-out on the home grounds
today at the hands of the Billings
(Mont.) nine. The score was to O..
: The visitors came within one of play
ing an errorless game, while the Og-
dens' playing was of the variety known
as ''streaked.''
The 9gdens were exceptionally I'M
fortunate in batting, most of their hits
going in the air and coming down into
the hands of a Billings fielder. Not one
of the five scores made by the Billings
nine was an earned run, as the home
boys went to pieces at critical stages,
and although they recuperated quickly.

Crowd Kissed Casey.
Casey, Ogden's old shortstop. who
went to Montana to play one game with
Billings, was with the Montana crowd
and is with them vet. He played with
his old-time dash at shortstop and had
the advantage of being onto all the

Both pitchers, McNealy for Billings
and Hansford for Ogden, did strong
work, but eight hits being made off
Hansford and six off McNeely Hans

Old Reliable Jack Greenwich played as
