NEW PROMISING PRODUCER.
The Good Record Made By the Ne
vada COMPANY.

Discussing the affairs of the Nevada
Mining company, of which he is presi-
dent, and whose property is situated
in the Battle Mountain mining district,
near Galena, New, George II. DerH said
yesterday that since the Incorporation
of the company last spring, shaft had
been put down siXty-five feet, and
short drift run out on the vein, which
was encountered at that depth. From
the drift a winze had been sunk to
point some twenty-five feet beneath the
present bottom of the shaft, and in do
ing that work four carloads of ore have
been marketed, and another car is now
in transit. The car now on the road
was carefully sampled at the mine. and
the values there obtained were $500 in
gold, 1916 ounces silver, and S1.5 per
cent lead.
The results OF the work so far done,
said Mr. Dern, were so encouraging
that it had been decided to send The
shaft down to the 100 level at once. The
extraction of ore will, therefore. he dis
continued until that work is done,
which Mr.. Dern estimates will require
thirty days
Superintendent Robert afulhalI, who
has been in the city for several days,

superintendent a. d. MacLean of the
Annie Laurie mine, in the Gold Noun
tain district, came up from the south
yesterday and is registered at the Ken
yon.
de says the mine is in fine physical
condition, and the late explorations
there have disclosed some fine bodies
of ore. The mill, he says, has been OPP
Grating since last June very success
fully, and it has been demonstrated
that the ores of the mine are almost
perfect in their susceptibility to treat
ment by the cyanide process.
The district in general, Mr.. MacLean
says, is very prosperous, and whole
lot of work is in progress in various
places. The whole country looks good,
the adjoining districts are active, in
fact, things never looked SO bright in
that section of the state as they do
now.
Mr. MacLean would not give out any
information relative to the pending deal
on the Annie Laurie mine. However,
ii could be inferred that he felt quite
assured that the whole affair would be
closed up shortly
Willard T. Snyder and the party Of
experts and investors who have been
making examinations at the mine for
several days past, came up on the
train with Mr.. MacLean, and it is very
likely that one or more big chunks of
Gold Mountain dirt will have changed
ownership by tonight.

Producers Have No Just Cause For
Complaint On Price of Copper.

T. r. Jones, local manager for the
American Smelling & Refining COM
pany, returned from his ten days out
ing, spent at Portland, yesterday morn
ing, feeling greatly refreshed by his
escape from business cares.
Asked what there was in the story
that copper producers were greatly dis
satisfied with the prices which they
were able to obtain for their ores, the
gentleman said it amounted to nothing;
men who understood the question at all
were not kicking. The prices paid for
copper ores were gagged entirely by
the class of the ore and the percentage
of copper which they contained. The
smelters, he said, could not pay as
much per unit for per cent as they
could for high-grade copper ore for
the very good reason that it cost a
ore Men familiar with the business
understood that perfectly, but there
We're some who did not and they were
kicking. There were men who always
kicked. When lead was worth $3.50
there was lots of kicking, and now that
it is worth $i.35, some >of them were
still at it. The smelters, he declared,
were not m2king such a big interest
on the amount they had invested that
a reasonable kick could be registered
against them, and he had no idea that
anything beyond the regular growl,
which is always INDUCED in by a Ger
tain percentage of people in any bust
ness. was now being emitted by the
producers of copper bearing ore.

San Francisco, Aug. 31.-The only
woman president of a railway COM
pany in the United States was formally
committed to the county Jail for five
days for contempt of court by Judge
Trout today. The woman in question
railway corporation of which she is the
head is the Stockton & Tuolumne Rail-
road company
Some time ago Charles Erickson, a
contractor, sued the company to re-
cover SS.765.15 for labor performed, and
material furnished. When the case
game up for trial on Monday. r. S.
Clark, secretary of the company. was
ordered to produce the books of the
corporation in court. On the following
day he reported that the president. Mrs.
Rikert, declined to allow the books TO
leave the cOmpany'S office.
The court thereupon ordered Mrs.
Rikert to bring the books into court
without fail. Mrs. Rikert again ig-
nored the order and the court fined
her $3.50 for contempt and sentenced
her TO jail for five days confinement.
Subsequently Judge Trout RENTED the
fine imposed on Mrs. Rikert, but the
commitment to Jail was allowed to
stand, the same to go into effect to-
day.
The refusal of the company to pay
EricksOn'S claim was based on the fact
that the contract was not authorized by
the board OF directors Erickson claim
ed that it was and books of the COM
pany would show. To determine this
point the books were ordered produced.

1t is understood a large holder of the

was weak, compared with What it was
a few days ago.
Chloride Point held it's own fairly

stock going up. The mine is said to
be in most healthful physical condi-
ton. AT the companys offices it is
learned there is more ore in sight at
the present time than ever before, and
the mill Is grinding away and doing
very satisfactory work An inside party
declared yesterday that the stock is
being beared by a combination of local
brokers. in hopes that they can scare
some Of the stock out. Some brokers
are anxious to play with the stock on
the local board, but so comparatively
little of it is held locally that it is not
much of an object for them to do so,
unless they succeed in getting some of
the eastern holders to loosen up. This
is the reason, the gentleman thought,
for the existing low prices, and to sum
up the situation he believed a combina-
ton had been formed to get hold of the
stock by using bearish tactics.

MAY BE REFUSED LANDING.
Chinese Sailors On D,wey's Flagship,
the Olympia.


New York, Aug. 31.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: Under
the Chinese exclusion law, some mem
bers of the crew of the Olympia, who
served with such credit in the battle
of Manila bay as to win special COM
mendation from Admiral Dewey in a
letter to the navy department, may not
be allowed to set foot on shore when
his flagship reaches New York
In the battle with the Spanish fleet,
they were assigned to duty in passing
ammunition and performed other du-
ties connected with fighting the ship,
and every one of them did his task
we'll enough for Admiral Dewey, who
even suggested that, if possible, they
be admitted to American citizenship.
His letter was referred to the treas
ury department. The secretary replied
that although he greatly regretted the
fact, there was no way in which the
law could be waived. The Cinnamon
in the Olympia's crew could not be ad-
lnitted to the United States unless they
had been lawfully in this country at
the time of their enlistment.
The law is mandatory upon the Off
Gals of the treasury department, and
it will be the duty of Collector of Gus
toms Bidwell, at New York, to prevent
the Chinese members of the Olympia's
crew from leaving the ship while she
is in New York harbor. Under the law.
a naval vessel is part of the soil of the
country, and technically, if any of
them were enlisted in San Francisco
they have not been out of the United
States while serving on the Olympia
1t is not probable, however, that any
action would be taken by the treasury
officials should the Cinnamon be al
lowed to land on the superstition that
they are legally entitled to reside in the
Uniled States.

Prospects Are Better Now Than Ever
Before. 40
Especial Correspondence

Vernal, Aug. 2S.-Interest in Uintah's
mines seems to be on the increase. There
are more strange faces around Vernal
and Carbonate than ever before. 1t has
been an uphill pull to gain recognition for
the many resources OF this section, but
it is coming at last, and the present year
may be considered as the turning point
in the history of this section.
Parties just II from the Jesse Ewing
canyon report further strikes in that
camp, and interest is growing in that
section. Representative William O'Neil,
manager of the Vernal Copper company
came in from there yesterday and while
declining to talk for publication. stated
that matters were perfectly satisfactory.
From other sources il is learned that an
important strike has been made on the
Mammoth, in the shape of an Independent
vein of copper ore, that exceeds in rich
ness anything yet found in the camp.
Matters are beginning TO stir over at
Douglass mountain, ana everything is be-
ing put in shape for an early start at
the Bromide.
w. II. Kinnon of Central City, Colo,
the smelter expert, who has been engaged
by the company, arrived here last night,
and will depart for the camp tomorrow.
The gentleman expresses himself as very
favorably impressed with the valley, and
far beyond the impressions he had formed
before arriving.
