. BIG DEAL CLOSED.
Salt Lakers Buy Colorado Mine For
$4,000

The first payment on a $155,000 min
ing deal was made through the Utah
National bank yesterday, and a Col
orado property passed into the hands
of Utah investors. The property trans
ferred is the Yellow Pine group, owned
by George r. Williamson, and located
eight miles from Boulder. The parties
who purchase the property are w. ).
Mccormick, David Keith, Thomas
Kearns and Willard D. Thompson, as
ISOLATED with Howard PaScha1 of Chi
caGO.
The Yellow Pine is a valuable ac-
QUESTION, and in the past no less than
$500. O0G has been realized from the ore
extracted. The mine has been extern
sively developed, and the underground
workings consist of fully 5000 feet of
shafts and tunnels. The ore bodies
come in true assure veins, in which are
blocked out immense bodies of ore, and
from a reliable source comes the in
formation that after things get to run
ming along smoothly it Will take the
new owners but a short time to get
back all they have invested.
The property was recently examined
by Tug Wilson of Provo and others,
and it was on their report that the pur-
chasers concluded they had a bonanza
and the deal was accordingly consum-
mated.

sition of building a spur from the
Union Pacific tracks to the mouth of
the tunnel which connects the Ontario.
DAILY and Daly-West mines. and
through which it is the intention to
haul the ores of these properties.
A gentleman down from the Park
last evening asserted that work on the
new piece of road would be commenced
inside of the next two weeks, as that
was the limit of time allowed the
company under the concessions grant
ed.
As soon as the Union Pacific agreed
to build the spur early last spring, the
matter of securing right of way was
taken up and quickly disposed of, as
property holders along the line were
not slow to recognize the Importance
of the undertaking and the good which
would necessarily accrue to the town
in the way of encouraging the COM
panies interested to work their proper
ties TO a fuller capacity: and while no
formal announcement has yet been
made by the Union Pacific officials
that work would begin as stated, the
gentleman quoted says there is no
but what the spur Will be
built as promised by the company in
the beginning.

TO BUY INTO SEWER.
Messrs. Dern and Airs Considering
Offer From Lammersdorf.


AS a sequel to the sensational opera
tions which have attended the career of
the Sewer Gold Mining company for
the past two years, in which the con-
troll of the property has changed hands
two or three times, with lawsuit ac-
compartments, assessments, etc, the
statement can now be made that
white-winged peace" reigns supreme
in the Lammersdorf camp and a season
of great activity and mammoth pro-
duction, under new conditions, is about
TO be inaugurated.
John Dern and L. H. Airs were to be-
come interested in the Sewer property
to the extent of taking the control of
the stock and the management.
Mr.. Dern was asked concerning the
matter, and admitted that Mr.. Lam
mersdorf had submitted a proposition
which covered the statement made
above. and explained that just as soon
as a necessary trip to Alercur had been
made he would take a man with him
and go down to Gold Mountain for the
purpose OF examining Mr.. hammers
DORIS mine, and if ii is found to be as
represented, and the gentleman said he
had no reason in the world to doubt
that it would, Mr.. LammerSdorf'S offer
would be accepted.
Mr.. Lammersdorf said that it was
true an offer had been made to the gem
tlemen named, and as it was a blain
business proposition, with no mystery
surrounding it, he had no reason to
keep it quiet. The figure at which
Messrs. Dern and Airs were offered
the control all concerned declined to
state.

Private advices from London, re-
ceiyed here yesterday, are to the effect
that Captain j. r. De Lamar is on the
point of disposing of his entire Mercur
property to a syndicate of French and
English capitalists for $14,OOOOo0. The
story comes from the very heart of
London money centers ana is from a
disintereSte5 source.
Il. A Cohen, who is looking after the
captains interests here at this time,
was seen concerning the story yester-
day afternoon, and said he did not be-
lieve there was anything in it; if there
was, he certainly knew nothing about

more truth in this than there was in
the yarn given out some time since,
that he was engaged to be married
AS Captain De Lamar is 70 come out
here again next month, the public Will
not have long to wait for a confirmation
or deniarof the statement.

Mr.. Berry IS also largely interested
in the Steamboat, where he says two

copper belt traverses the Steamboat
ground, and the tunnel, which is now
in a distance of geo feet, is being driven

MACHINERY FAMINE.
Tintic Development Retarded By
Lack of Equipment.
Especial Correspondence

NSpecldl OOTr6SpOHueuCc)
Silver City, June 15.-There is an ac-
tual machinery famine prevailing in
this and contiguous localities perhaps
not equalled in the history of mining
in Utah Nine mines are practically
at a standstill because of the inability
to obtain hosting power purchased
some time ago and promised to arrive
weeks past. Then, too, there are five
larger properties that are obliged to do
the best possible in the way of getting
along with about one-half the boiler
capacity needed. Most of these delayed
and incomplete shipments were placed
with Salt Lake firms, and while it is
pleasing to realize what such an in
crease in the volume of trade means,
if the delay continues through the bet
ter part of the summer it will have a
tendency to retard big development
work. the result of which great hopes
are built on.

TUSCARoRA ACTIVE.
Dexter Officials Putting On Shifts at
That Property.

B. +. Redman returned from Tusca-
rora, New, yesterday, where he is OPP
Grating a steam traction and hauling
freight between Elko and Tuscarora.
He says H. Z. Booth and Colonel Mil
ner of the Dexter directory are both
at the mine putting in shifts. Judge
Booth, he says, is conducting a run on
the Ellis COMMENTATORS, while Colonel
Miner is attending to other details.
The water in the shaft which for a
time caused considerable apprehension.
is under control, and the pumps re-
Gently put in place are working very
satisfactory. The mill is running along
nicely, and the water supply is SUI
ficient to operate a dozen such plants
as this one, which has a capacity of
1l5 tons day.
Mr.. Redman reports considerable ac-
tivity in the camp, and says prepara-
tons are going on for the erection of
a hoist on the Young America, owned
principally by W. B. Andrew of this
city.
The Tuscarora Chief is putting up a
new hoist. Four men are employed
cleaning out the shaft and putting
things in shape for operations. The
Navajo mill has been leased and
dump will be put through it.

WEST TINTIC EXAMINED.
Experts Express High Opinion of the
District.
(special Correspondence,


Mt Pleasant, June 15.-Dick Whitta-
ker came home from Salt Lake City
this week, but returned again Wednes-
day. He says that during the past two
weeks a gang of mining experts have
been in the West Tintic mining district
on a tour of exploration, and that they
covered the entire district in a thor
ough manner.
In the opinion of these experts, ac-
cording to Mr.. Whitaker West Tintic
is destined in the future to become one
of the foremost mining districts of
Utah. Every indication is favorable.
Even with the small amount of devel-
opment work and prospecting that has
been done there, it was demonstrated
by the showing made to the experts
that this district is a great deal richer
than its sister district, East Tintic.
Mr. Whitaker says that himself and
his associates in the Burlington Con-
solidated in West Tintic, are highly
pleased with this opinion of the experts
and they are greatly encouraged. So
much so, in fact. that they will push
work more rapidly than ever on their
property. All the directors of the in
corporation who are in Utah will visit
the property this week. when definite
plans will be laid out for future opera
lions.
The mining property at Milford
owned by J. H. Erickson of Salt Lake
and Nephi Nyborg of this city, is to
be opened up this summer and the
extraction of ore begun. Mr.. Nyborg
is now at Tintic. but he will go on out
to the other mine in a short time, where
he will be met by Mr.. Erickson and to-
gether they will begin work. The nee
essary machinery was shipped at Nephi
last week by their men and forwarded
to Milford.
The ore has value in the mine of
between S25 and $50 per ton. The en-
tire cost Of mining, transportation and
milling amounts TO about $3.50 per ton,
consequently its net value is in the
neighborhood of 500 The ore will be
shipped to Salt Lake City as fast as
taken from the mine.
