some of these facts the New York Com.
mercial says:
Our last years foreign trade re.
turns showed net decrease Of 3lee..
$50. .595 in the value Of our imports freem
other countries. Every dollar oe this
decrease. and $559,ss in addition, was
due to our smaller purchases of goeds
admitted into the United States free;of
duty. These reductions have consisted
mostly in articles Of food and articles
in a crude condition for use in our.
domestic industries. showing Thereby
our independence Of other nations for
such material, because we have Ger.
tainly been using and needing more
through the greater output Of our fac
tories. OF dutiable goods we imported
rather more last year than in 1896 orin
1897. and the possibilities are that our
imports Of dutiable goods will show,a
considerable increase during 1889.

Europe This has been particularly
in the past during our pro.

scores of importers in this city who's
would much prefer to see the American

COWLEY ON ROBERTS.
Apostle Defends the UTAH Congress

|
The semi-annual eonvocation of Wis
! consin Mormon elders is in progress in
Milwaukee. Among those in attendance
| is Apostle M. F. Cowley. Mr.. Cowley
| is quoted as saying to a Sentinel re-
| porter that the church was taking no
part in Congressman Roberts case. He
said every Mormon knows that Mr..
! Roberts is a polygamist, that he. has
more than one wife, and that he sup
| ports more than one family. But Mr..
| Roberts is not defying the law" he
said. When the supreme court of the
United States decided that polygamy
was unconstitutional, President Wood
ruff, the supreme head of the Mormon
church, issued mandate to all the
members of the church that the prac-
tice of polygamy must cease, because
the law of the land as interpreted by
the highest court placed ban upon it.
The mandate issued by the president
of the Mormon church, however, was
not retroactive; it only forbade plural
marriages from the date it was issued.
Had Mr.. Roberts failed to support his
plural families it would have been an
act of cowardice, which the Gentiles
as we'll as the Mormons would have
strongly condemned. While the church
is not taking any sides, yet it looks on
Mr.. Roberts case with some interest

Chicago Capitalist Fails to Buy the
Dixie Mine.
STILL AFTER AsPHALTUM
TOO BUSY TO LOOK AFTER COP
PER BoNANzAS.
7. 2. Letters Expert Visited the
Dixie Mine, But the Syndicate
Failed to Put Up the 100000
Tintic Properties to Be Developed
Captain De Lamar Returns.

The option on the Dixie copper mine,
given to eastern parties for 100000,
expired at u o'clock Tuesday night, and
the property has been relinquished to
DR. JIG. e. King. w. w. Olds, M. j.
O,Meara and Clarence K. Mccormick.
who hold an option on the ground from
the original owners.
1t developed last week that the party
10 whom the late option was given was
none other than Levi Letter, the ia
NOUS Chicago capitalist, father of Jo-
seph Letter, who made himself famous
by his manipulation of the wheat mar
ket on the Chicago board of trade a
lew years ago.
1t is said Joe's visit here ha no con-
nection with the Dixie copper deal,
but an expert came along with his
party and Immediately upon his arri-
val here proceeded to the mine, made
his examinations and returned to Chi
cago.
Those interested in the property were
at a loss to know yesterday why no
word had been received from the east.
If the deal had gone through they
would have made a neat cleanup, but
after all they have no serious regrets
that Mr.. Letters money is not forth
coming. The developments at the mine
are exceedingly encouraging. ana Wnne
high-grade shipping ore is being taken
out right along, the smelling furnaces
are turning out a nice product of cop
per bullion. 1T is very probable that the
Letters prefer to close up some of the
nsphaltum deals now pending before
branching out into the copper mining
business in Utah. That this syndicate
IS after a corner on the asphaltum out
put is undisputed. They see an oppor-
lunity to gather up everything in sight
n the shape of asphaltum lands, and
It is not likely they are going to let
the chance slip by. When they get
everything in the asphaltum line
cinched they may then look for other
enterprises. 1t is believed the asphalt
tum deals have blocked everything else,
and that explains why the Dixie folks
have not heard anything from the Chi
cago people relative to their option. 1t
IS possible they may ask for an extern
sion of time, but it is doubtful if it
would be granted.

Henry NJ. Ryan,s BUY.
(Wood River Times.)

(Wood River TimeS.)
Henry M. Ryan has purchased the
tailings dumps of the Queen of the Hills
group of mines. The contract of sale
is signed, but some details as to the
machinery to be turned over remain
to be settled. This will occasion a de-
lay of few days.
When these details are settled, Mr..
Ryan will begin work on somewhat
extensive scale. He will construct a
mill that viii lbe capable of handling
at least fifty tons day. This mill will
have Cornish rolls and Frue vanners,
and will lcost $4,000 to $25. 1000. Other
necessary preliminary work will re-
quire an additional expenditure of &c.,
600 or SO, making a total of about $685.
900 to be expended before there can be
a cent of return.
The Queen of the Hills dumps con-
tain over 100000 tons of tailings that
will pay to work. These tailings will
be first put through the rolls and
ground to forty-hesh size, and then
run over vanners.
The daily quantity put through will
depend upon the supply of water If
the water suffices to reduce fifty tons,
fifty tons will be reduced If for 100
tons, 100 tons will be reduced daily.

UTAH STOCKS IN BOSTON.
The Rapid Rise of United States
Securities.

Considerable interest is being taken
in Salt Lake in the manipulation of
Bingham mining stocks in Boston.
Since the United States syndicate gath
cred in the Centennial Eureka at Tin
tic, United States stock has been par
ticularly popular Only a few weeks
ago it was quoted on the Boston stock
exchange around $25 share. Since the
Centennial-Eureka sale it has gone up,
and within the past week or so has
been selling above $40. The stock was
put out last spring al $40 a share. 1t
was the original intention to list it both
in Philadelphia and Boston. The Phil
adelphians, however, did not show
much enthusiasm over it, and the re-
suit was that it was mostly placed in
Boston. Utah Consolidated stock is also
q popular security in Boston. II was
really the first TO attract the eastern
investor towards Bingham on account
of the sale of the Highland Boy mine,
which forms the basis of its incorpora-
ton Boston Consolidated, represent
