companied by B. L. Redman one of the
officers Of the association, will leave
this morning for San Francisco, for the
purpose of arranging for the purchase
of reduction works for the com9any's
Nevada property, located at Tuscarora
This plant, The Herald is informed,

bination with cyanide works, the inten-
ton being to install the plant at the
earliest possible moment this spring,
soon after which, it is believed, the
mine viii be on paying basis, as large
bodies of good milling ore are exposed
in the mine besides which the property
can boast of some of the finest chutes
of high grade ore to be found in the
camp, from which shipments have al
ready been made TO this city, the sales
of which have kept the treasury of the
company in good condition, and it is
learned that as soon as the roads settle
and are open for travel. a two-car lot
Of this rich mineral will be forwarded
at once to the market, DEVELOPMENT

IN HAWAII
Cabinet Crisis Caused Decided
Flutter.
COOPER WANTS GOOD JOB
GAME OF FREEZE-oUT THAT
WENT WRONG.
Cabinet Positions Are the Best Pay
ing Posts In the Islands-The
Present Incumbent Want to Hold
On to Good Thing-President
Dole's Tactics.



Honolulu, March 1S.-There are a
number of good political jobs in Ha
wall open to statesmen from Ohio or
elsewhere, who have good, strong polit-
ical backing or pull with Mckinley
They are so good that the men who now
hold them are very anxious to stay
in and be in good position to stoy
when congress finally passes legisla-
ton far the islands, and we know what
political rights we have. They are so
good, in fact, that the squabble over
them has just precipitated a cabinet
crisis.
The best of them are the cabinet po-
sitions, with the title CT minister and Il
salary of $4,000, appropriations for
which have been made up to Jan. l.
1900, and the money is in the treasury
to pay the salaries
The Newlands resolution knocked out
one of them, but it did not knock out
the salary or the appropriation which
had already been made by the legisla-
ture for two years, and that is what
started the row. The position that was
knocked out by the Newlands resolu-
ton was that of minister of foreign af
fairs The man who held the position
and who holds it yet is Henry E.
Cooper. who came here shortly before
the overthrow Of the monarchy with
most of his worldly possessions in a
small hand satchei, it is said. He read
the proclamation that announced the
end of the monarchy and the establish
ment of the provisional government
from the steps of the executive build
ing. That got him AN office. He has
been in office ever since. Now he has
just finished building magnificent res
idence and has, if not money to burn, at
least what most men would call a com :
petence. But lately he seems to have
been getting little afraid of his job
1t is so openly. VIGOROUSLY and unmis-
takably sinecure, that it is quite pos
sible that the next session of the legis-
lature will abolish it. He would like
to get into an office that has soma du-
ties connected with it, so that he would
not have to give it up if the Legislature
proves to have mind of its own. Be
sides, he is, reported to be of opinion
that the men who are in office when
the islands finally come wholly into the
Union will stand the best chance of
staying in office. The job he wants is
minister of the interior. That portfolio
has control of all the appropriations for
public works. He was minister of the

The Brooklyn-Eureka.

Hudson Smith, the well-known min
ing operator, who is in the city from
Eureka, is highly pleased with the re-
cent showing in the ground north of
Eureka gulch owned by the Brooklyn
Eureka Mining company, and he states
that he is fully satisfied that with more
extensive development this property
will be added to the producing and
paying mines of the camp.
Mr.. Smith, who has the management
of this prospective bonanza, informs
The Herald that the incline shaft be-
ing sunk in it's exploration has already
reached a depth of 225 feet, and that
as he was leaving for the city the
workings broke into a fine body of
quartz, disclosing a assure vein in do
lounite lime, the quartz being heavily
mineralized, while the indications for
the near presence of a fine body of ore
are very encouraging.
Mr.. Smith is of the opinion that the
Brooklyn-Eureka is on an extension of
the great mineral zone or belt which
has made the mines of Eureka so ia
nous in the past, and now that the
outlook is so promising, he will push
operations with greater yigor than ever
before.

PROMOTION OF SCHLEY.
Will Rank Higher Than Sampson
Under Reorganization.

New York, March 2S.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from Washington says:
The promotion of Commodores Remey,
Watson and Schley to be rear admir-
ais hangs on a few words from Rear
Admiral Sampson, now at Kingston,
Jamaica, to whom the navy DEPART
ment telegraphed today, directing him
to send at once his requisite report ON
the qualifications of these three Off
GERS, who are now his seniors, as they
were a year ago, but who were tenn
porarily under his command in the
war with Spain. This remarkable
anomalous condition of affairs arises
from the meeting at the navy depart
ment of the special examining board
appointed by Secretary Long, consist
ing of three ranking rear admirals of
the service, McNair, Howell and Hew
ison, to pass on the qualifications for
advancement to the next higher grade
of the fourteen officers in line to fill
vacancies due to the creation by con-
greSs, under the personnel bill, of
eighteen rear admirals. These officers,
in the order of their rank. are Commo-
dores Remey, Farquhar, Watson, Rob-
inson, Schley and Casey, and Captains
Sampson, Cromwell, Philip, Higginson,
Picking, Rodgers, Kempff and Sum-
ner.
When the board met it speedily APP
proved the records of eleven of these
officers as fleet flag officers. That of
Commodore Robinson was also COM
plete, but, unfortunately. the medical
examiners had found him physically in
capacitated for further duty. and he
will, therefore, be placed on the re-
tired list tomorrow on his own applica-
ton, with the rank of rear admiral. To
the vacancy thus made, Captain F. B.
Day will succeed, and he will receive
prompt promotion under a recess ap-
pointment by the president.
1t is the understanding that in the
cases of ten of the candidates the
board acted with the routine usual in
such examinations for promotion. In
the case of Captain Sumner, whose
record was open to question on ac-
count of the slight mishap to the CO.
lumbia in the Southampton dry dock
several years ago. the board considered
that the suspension of punishment
constituted an offset to the courtmar-
tial sentence for negligence, and his
fitness for fleet command was ordered
certified to the president.

interior ad interim for a. few months
once, and knows what can be done
with it.
The present minister of the interior is
Captain j. A. King, a bluff old sea cap
tain, whom everybody likes and whom
everybody trusts. But he is not an IN
triguer, and he does not belong to the
family compact" He has been minis
ter of the interior ever since the NOR
archy was overthrown, and it is Prob
able that his personal influence has
been a greater source of strength TO the
provision government and the republic
than amy other one single element. But
Cooper wants his place, and has been
working to get it. But the only way he
the only way to get King cut was to
force him to resign. 1t was in the at
tempt to force him to resign that the
cabinet crisis came about.
Cooper, aided and abetted by Attor-
ney General Smith, proposes in the cab
met that certain appropriations for
public improvements on the island Of
Hawaii should be taken out of the
hands of the minister Of the interior
and put in the hands of a local board
in Hilo. The pretenSe was that this
would be a measure of home rule for
the island of Hawaii. The real purpose
was to humiliate King and force him to
resign. The newspapers exposed the
scheme. The community arose in indig-
nation and counseled King not to re-
sign. The scheme was frustrated, and
Attorney General Smith has had the
grace to resign, though he based his
resignation on the assertion that an
other member of the cabinet had given
publicity to the proposed action and
had imputed sinister motives.
The vacancy has not yet been filed,
and President Mckinley under the
Newlands resolution, can step in and
fill it any time. though President Dole
claims a. power of attorney from Nc
Kinley to fill it. Everybody here be-
lieves that President Dole intends to
appoint Cooper to the position. though
he does not like to do it at once and so
furnish the conclusive proof of the in
trigue to put Cooper in a permanent
position. RumorS have been started
that the position has been offered to
this man and that, but that they have
declined, the purpose of this being I'M
derstood to be to make it appear that
he can get no man of sufficient expert
ence to accept it and hence that he is
practically forced to appoint Cooper.
If Cooper is appointed it will be
against the wishes of nine-tenths of
the people of the islands. There is real
regret that Smith should have got him
self into a position where he was forced
to resign. For although he lacks many
elements of personal popularity, he is
recognized as a capable man and a hard
worker.

Sohr at Los Angeles.
CLOS Angeles Express.)


Max Sohr, who is registered at the
Annex from Salt Lake City, is suffer-
ing with a fractured shinpone.
The accident occurred at Pasadena
several days ago as Sohr was alighting
from an electric car on Raymond ave-
nue.. The car had stopped to let him
off at the Green hotel, and started up
before he had fairly alighted, and he
fell. He visited Pasadena yesterday,
and the Los Angeles & Pasadena
Railway company agreed to pay dam
ages.
Sohr is credited, too, with having dis
covered a substitute for gold. Of this
discovery he says: after eight years
work in my laboratory, 1 have found a
process by which 1 can manufacture a
metal which bears all the tests of acid
effect, durability and malleability of
six-karat gold. The process is very
simple. Anthony differs from gold in
being lead color, lighter and not so
strong. 1t is scarcer than gold. 1t is
found in pockets in slate regions. My
manufacture would cost about as
much as brass costs"

Prospector Talbert Makes Fortunate
Discovery.

Discovery.
A. J. Talbert, a prospector, who has
been working in the new Salt Wash
copper district, was in yesterday to
record mining claims, says the Grand
Valley Times. He says there is much
excitement over there over the show
ing already made, and believes they
have ore that can be shipped at a
profit, and that it will be commenced
within a. month. He showed us returns
on three assays, the highest 62.S per
cent copper and eight ounces silver,
and the lowest 25.6 per cent copper and
seven ounces silver. 1t is about TWEEN
ty-five miles from the claims to the
railroad.
Reports from Paradox say there is a
rush of prospectors there, and there is
a great demand for lumber for building
purposes. This is simply what may be
expected all over La Sale mountain
country within the next year.
w. A. Wilson of Salt Lake City re-
turned Monday from a visit to the cop
Taylor & Skews property at Lisbon.
He expressed a high opinion of the dis
trict.
L. C. Case is in from the Copper dis
trict, where he has been doing develop
ment work on a number of claims this
winter. Slow as has been the district
to get on a shipping basis, he says it is
steadily improving and will soon prove
to be one of. the largest copper produc-
ing sections of the country.

is on involving the sale of the Daisy mine
on the West Dip TO heavy mining men
of this city.

CURED a day or two ago, Sam Newhouse
was elected president of the association.
w. F. Smith, manager of the Midnight
Bowers who has just returned from
visit to this Tintic property, speaks in
the highest terms of the favorable indi-
cations as disclosed in it's workings.
John B. Parish, the representative of the
Tintic a few days ago, took look
through the underground workings of the
Star Consolidated mine, near Mammoth.
The machinery for the new hoist for
the Congor mine, in the Dalton y Lark
country, above Bingham, will be delivered
on the property sometime this week, and
it will not be long after before it will be
installed and in operation.
The Star Consolidated marketed two
cars of ore yesterday, which sold on as
S32 gold 10 ounces silver and Z per cent
lead to the ton. Another two-carload lot
will be shipped from the mine this week.
Among the shippers on the market yes
twelve cars; the Mammoth, with seven;
the Old Spanish, with eight; the Samp-
son. with one; the Utah Consolidated,
with one. and the Old Telegraph, with
four lots.
1t is learned that the Petro Mining
company. operating at Bingham, has
made application to list its stock on the
board of the old exchange. This is a
property of merit, and it is believed that
the shares of the association will be pop
ular with the stock-dealing public.
A gentleman who is just in from Sun
shine states that excellent progress is
being made in the development of the
Electric group near that place and that
the workings are in fine body of low
grade gold ore at depth of only eighty
feet It is understood that the company
is in good financial condition.
The Horn Silver had two cars of con-
centrates and five of crude ore on the
market yesterday. Manager P. T. Farms

Future of the Bicycle.

1t is agreed by all bicycle manufac-
turers that the 1899 models represent
the perfect wheel. Improvement seems
to be impossible. Precisely the same
thing is true : Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. 1t represents the limits of
science in overcoming disease, and it
is impossible to make a better medicine
for the stomach, liver, kidneys and
blood. A few doses of the Bitters will
start weak, nervous and bloodless peo-
pie on the road, to strength A regular
course of treatment will bring back the
pink to the cheeks and sparkle to the
eye. Sleep win come naturally, and it
will be refreshing and healthful. Dys-
pepsia, Indigestion and constipation
will be completely banished, and the
blessings of true health bestowed.
Never take a. substitute for this perfect
remedy.

yer in the Tuscarora Extension.
J.F. Parsons, one of the veterans and
pioneers of the grand old mining camp
of Tuscarora, NeV., is in the city on
important mining business
MIR. Parsons has been identified with
the Tuscarora and the big mines of
the camp ever since 1t sprung into
prominence, at least twenty years ago,
as one of the greatest wealth-producing
sections of this intermountain country.
and he still banks on the future out
come of the mines of the district as
confidently as if he had a reliable guar
antee as to what the year will bring
forth in the way of new discoveries and
q heavy mineral output.
Having had charge of the Grand
Prize, above the Dexter, during the
years when it produced SO many mil
lions in the precious metals, he has al
ways been confident that he could ind
the lost vein which was shut. square off
in the Grand Prize workings by q big
fault, and, to carry out his theory IN
this regard he has secured a group OF
three claims. embracing the CAPITAL
Prize. the Tucson and the Sibley, be-
lieved to be on the extension OF the
Grand Prize ledge, his enterprise being
rewarded by the uncovering Of the vein
at a depth of only 121 feet, the zone be-
ing over 145 feet in width, so Iar as eX-
plored, and now he is sanSuine that he
has an embryonic bonanza on his hands,
and will continue further operations
with greater Vigor than ever.
One of the important discoveries to
be made at Tuscarora of late. accord
ing TO Mr.. Parsons, is the finding of
metallic quicksilver and cinnabar in the
property Of the Tuscarora Extension
company of this city. This ledge is
three feet in width. and carries 10 per
cent in quicksilver, which would
amount to about 800 TO the ton, besides
which the ore runs a few dollars in
GOLD. The find is looked upon as an
important one in that section and else
