the Highland Boy mine at Bingham,

Stln that the matter was dropped Tor
some time. Recently Il party OF capital
lists and experts in Rockefeiler's private
car went to Utah to pass on the deal.
They were astounded at the possibilities
of the mine and at once closed the deal
on the basis of NewhOuse's first figures.
II is well known here in mining circles
that Rockefeller is negotiating tor other
copper and gold propositions in the west.

at Salt Lake City and county, state of
Utah, acting for a. w McCune, tried
to induce w. G. Nebe}zer to assist in
the election of said McCune for United
States senator, and then and there the
said Sloan stated TO him, the said VIII
liam G.. Neoeker, that money was be-
ing used therefor, and that he wanted
to see his (SlOan's) friends get some Of

of February, 1899, at the city and coun-
ty of Salt Lake, state of Utah, one E.

doing.
4. further claim. in view of the i'm
pOrtance attached to this investigation,

TOOK SALTPETRE.
Mayor Veile and His Son Nearly
Killed By a Mistake.
Especial to The Herald


Fillmore, Feb. 2O.-About 2 O'Clock
this afternoon Mayor George c. Veile
of this city had a close call from death
by taking saltpetre, and his oldest son,
George NJ, was badly affected from the
same cause. Both have been ill for sew
eral days, and under the impression
that they were taking salts they took
a large dose of saltpe5re. The mayor
mixed the stuff UP and drank two
thirds of a glass, and his son swallowed
the balance. \ few moments later both
became seriously i'll, and for some
twenty minutes it was "a question
whether the older gentleman would sur
vive Dr. Merrill, who was immediate
" summoned, had his hands full for
half an hour, but at the end of that
time pronounced him out of danger.
The dose the younger man took made
him very i'll, but not dangerously so.
