the yachts were staggering along with

made the best choice. She set ner stay

With this outfit ;he lead was being

true was sailing without a topsail. but
she set so enormous a spinnaker that
at times it stood out oefore her.
SHAMROCK IN THE LEAD.
The criticism would be that IL was too
big. For i'm certain winds the spinna-
ker pole was 30 or ~ feet in the air
while the spinnaker was tossed against
the mafnsaiI when IL hung in folds. The
problem was one of catching up on the
green flyer and the Columbia added
working topsail. The task was no
small one. Captain HOgarth replied in
sail and IL the Columbia had had the
advantage for a minute the Shamrock
jumped away again. At 11.3O, half an
hour after the start. seven miles of the
course had been travelled. and the
shamrock was leading by 300 yards.
COLUMBIA DOES GOOD WORK.

Nernal, Jan. 9.-Interest increases in
the new gold finds across Green river.
and parties are still leaving for the
new camp.
Mark Batty came in last night, hav-
ing been one Of the first on the ground
after the original discoveries, and re-
ports every Indication of boom over
there He secured some very good To-
cations and says that at least twenty
Claims show Groupings of ore, the vein
in some instances being twenty-five feet
IN width. II was learned today that
three sets, Of thirteen samples each,
We're sent TO different points for assay.
They were taken from across the entire
width Of the vein. One lot went to
Mercur. one to Scranton, Pa, and one
was sent to Jesse Knight of Provo.
Where Nh. knight sent his for SAND
ing is not known. All gave practically
the same results, running all the way
from trace TO $50 in gold to the ton,
making an average of at least $25.
One assay, from u picked specimen,
gave the rather startling figure of $22,-
600 TO the ton.
II is reported that people on Green
river are Aocking to the new camp
daily, which is only fifteen miles east
OF Jensen. Should the camp prove per-
manent, that little burg will spring into
prominence and will profit greatly.
1t is runOred that a shipment viii be
made shortly, to make a milling test

in the valley tonight. that will leave
tomorrow. The ore viii reach Price in
about five days, that is, leaving now.
It is said number of outfits are
still at the mine, loading.
The Price correspondents seem to
have gotten a little mixed over the To-
cation of the mine. which is in the car
Donate district, twenty-five miles north
of VernaI. The mine was formerly
known as the Victoria here, and was
sometimes called the Dyer mine, after
its one-time owner.
The Bromide mine, with which it is
sometimes cOnfounded, is over on
Douglas mountains just over the line
in Colorado. The Bromide company
have erected 4 Smelter for the treat
ment of their ore, but owing to lack of
charcoal, have been forced to cease
operations for the present. A number
of men are busily engaged, however, in
hauling wood for the charcoal kilns,
and q force of men are extracting ore
and getting the mine in shape for ex-
tensive operations.

NAPOLEON MINING CLAIM
SUIT FOR A FIFTEEN sixty
FOURTHS INTEREST.
Against Freed Furniture Co., Frank
Knox ct al.-Speckart VS.. Niles On
Trial-Court Notes.

Patrick Condor has filed suit against
the Freed Furniture & Carpet COM
pany ct al. to recover fifteen-sixty-
fourths of the Napoleon mining claim,
or in case the same cannot be had, to
recover $4,000 in cash. In the complaint
it is alleged that on Sept. 49, 1896, the
Freed Furniture & Carpet company and
G. NJ. Freed were the owners of fiji
teen-siXty-fourths of the Napoleon min
ing claim, in the Tintic district, but the
legal title to the same was in Hyman
A. LeipSiger, and was held by him in
trust for the Freed company. 1t is
then alleged that the plaintiff obtained
an option TO purchase the Freed inter
est for $1,000, and the stock was de-
posted in escrow with Sam J. Kenyon.
1t is then alleged that the Freed COM
pany. in violation of the contract and
escrow with this plaintiff. executed a
deed to the fifteen-sixty-four inter-
est to Frank Knox, and Knox put the
deed on record and claims to own the
said interest. 1t is alleged that Knox
paid nothing for the deed, and that its
execution was in pursuance Of a COM
bination between Knox, Freed and
Leipsiger to prevent this plaintiff from
acquiring title to the ffteen-siXty-
fourths Of the property.
The plaintiff prays that the deed to
Knox be set aside, and that upon the
payment Of $1,000, which he has ten
dered, the fifteen siXty-fourths' interest
be conveyed to nim, or in case that
Knox has transferred it to an inno-
cent bona fide purchaser, the plaintiff
may have judgment for $4,000, the
value Of the stock over and above the

the option, this plaintiff was to pay

CHARLES CARLSON BOUND OVER

fray Concluded Before Judge Nc
Master Yesterday.

After a preliminary examination yes
terday. Justice McMaster bound over
TO the district court Charles Carlson.
who is charged with assault with in
tent TO commit murder upon Niels
Stevenson at Murray recently. Andrew
Carlson, brother of the defendant, tes-
titled that in the mix-up he saw knife
in the defendants hand that looked
like the one afterwards taken from him
by the sheriff and exhibited in court.
Stevenson was stabbed in the back, I'M
der the ribs, a half-inch below the
heart, and, although the wound was
serious, he is recovering. 1t appeared
from the testimony that Stevenson
was in a quarrelsorne mood, and made
some prOvocation for an assault, which
prompted the court to make a bond
within the means of the defendant. 1t
was fixed at $3.50, and furnished.
Justice McMaSter dismissed the case
against Andrew Carlson and Emil An
derson, who were also involved in the
drunken row, but there was no evil
dence to show that either was guilty of
stabbing Stevenson.

Lake Officers Yesterday.

John Wallner a stranger to Salt
Lake, but supposed to have come from
Soda Springs, Ida, is under arrest at
the city Jail and has confessed having
stolen property from parties at Kays-
vile and Pennington.
Yesterday morning Chief Pratt and
Sheriff Howells received information
from Sheriff Abbott of Davis county

horses and a sleigh had been stolen
from White & Sons of KaysviIIe, and
that Arthur and George Hess of Farm

lianS, q blacksmith of the firm of God
dard & Williams, corner Second South
and Franklin avenue. In exchange for
the horses Williams traded a gray
horse and gave SIS to boot The
team was identified as the one stolen
from White & Sons. Further search
revealed the horse obtained from Will
Iams in a, corral at State and Fourth
South. The officers followed I'D the
clue, with the discovery that the same
individual had traded a goatskin over
coat for a chinchilla at GIassberg's
store. on Second South, and also made
the purchase of a suit of clothes. At

The next act witnessed the arrest of

rom w R.. Williams for the gray
horse Wailner is a tall. slender man
with brown hair and light mustache

Danish descent. He at first held out
that he received the property from a
man yesterday morning, but later ad-
mitred that ne stole the things in Davis
county. He said he recently came from
Soda Springs, Ida.
Young kraut gave an explanation of
his relations with Wallner, stating that
the fellow aecosted him on Commercial
street and asked if he didn't want
something to eat. WELL replied Kraut
IL I was hungry ! reckon l could get
enough TO eat at home" K.raut said
