Stocks were more active yesterday
than on Mondays calls.
The Salt Lake board did consider
ably more business. and Emerald was
one of the active sellers. the stock TAX
ing a start upwards. The report of a
strike in the mine strengthened it ma
terially, and while it has been selling
at II and Is cents, it advanced to Il
yesterday. Considerable trading was
done in Daisy, but prices were sta
tionary. Northern Light was also ac-
tive. but made no advances.
Ingot sold at 20 cents, and Chloride
Point was inactive at So cents. Star
Consolidated was on the decline, and
Sunshine, in which many brokers eX-
pected to make a quick turn on ad-
vancing prices, went tobogganing. and
registered sales at 81 cents. Joe Bow
ers held its own and Valeo was in de-
mand at $1.09.
The most popular stock on the Utah
exchange was Golden Eagle, one of the
cheaper grade securities. Good reports
coming from the mine have caused a
stronger feeling, and considerable stock
has been quietly bought in during the
last few days. Joe Bowers Extension

at go. Daly-West was strong at $685..

AT THE QUEENS DRAWING ROOM
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WIT
NESS THE DISPLAYS.
The Principal Event Was the Presen-
tation By Mrs. Joseph Choate
of Several American Ladies.

London, May 16.-In spite of showery
weather, large crowds of people gath
cred in st. James Park today, in order
to see the carriages containing people
bound for the queens drawing-room
at Buckingham palace. They began ar
irving before noon. and when they were
allowed TO take places at / o'clock, a
double line had already been stretched
from the palace to the horse guards
parade, and another from the palace
along Buckingham palace, road to Vic
toria railroad station.
The unusual eagerness to reach the
palace was due to the hope of the de-
butantes of being received by the
queen personally, as generally her maj
esty only receives the diplomats and
the first few of the general company,
and turns over the duty of receiving
to one of her daughters. The queen
presence also was the occasion for an
unusually large assemblage of the
members of the diplomatic corps. The
great display of state carriages and
gorgeous liveries, etc, delighted the on
lockers.
Neither the Prince of Wales nor the
Duke of York attended the drawing
room. but the Duchess of York arrived
shortly before O'Clock in a drenching
rain, which effectually dampened the
enthusiasm of the crowds. Inside the
palace all the state apartments. includ-
ing the ballroom, were opened, owing
to the exceptional attendance.
Promptly at 3 O'Clock Queen Victoria
was wheeled from her own apartments
to the throneroom. followed by the
other royalties, and conducted by the
great officers of the household. The
function then began.
Mrs. Choate, wife of the United
States ambassador, presented Mrs. AL
fred Paris, her sister. and Miss Jen-
nings, both of Philadelphia; Miss Nora
Neef of Chicago, and Miss Mary Still
man of New York
In the diplomatic circle Mrs. Choate
presented Miss Choate and Miss Eliza
beth Choate, a niece of Mrs. Choate,
and Mrs. and Miss Leshman. the wife
and daughter of d. a. Leishman. the
United States minister to Switzerland
Mr.. ChOate and his son were among
those present.

Now Handling 24O Tons of Ore Per
Day = Developments at Fish
Springs-Utah Shaft to Go Down
1000 Feet - Good Prospects For
Horse Heaven.

The first bar of pig copper from the
first copper-smelting plant in Utah was
run into the moulds at the Highland
Boy plant late Monday afternoon. As
that was the time set, some two weeks
since. by Superintendent r. T. White
for the important event to take place,
it shows the gentleman to have Il
thorough understanding of the intri-
cate operation of the great plant, which
he has watched grow since the work
was inaugurated last September
The magnificent plant can now be
said to be in full operation. Every
stack is fun of ore; every reverberating
furnace is full of cyanide, and every
converter is full of matte, and from
this time on, as every part of the huge
machine is doing its work perfectly,
this condition of affairs is quite likely
TO continue.
The mine, it is said, will not be
crowded at all to supply the 240 tons of
ore a day necessary to keep the plant
in constant operation. In fact. it
could just as easily, from all accounts.
supply double the quantity required. 1t
is, therefore, fair TO presume that many
months will not have passed before the
smelter increases its capacity.
With Mondays event, the copper
producing industry in Utah can be said
TO have been fairly and permanently
launched

Church TROUBLES WORRY HIM
BISHOP CLARK ANNOYED BY
BRIGGS MATTER.
Funston Affair of Boise, Idaho Also
Creates Dissatisfaction Be
Referred to House of Bishops.

New York, May ia special to the
Tribune from Providence, r. l.. says
that the Rt. Rev. Thomas Clark, the
venerable presiding bishop of the
American house of bishops, has been
much annoyed by the controversy over
the Briggs matter, which he considers
most unfortunate. 1t has brought him
a vast amount of correspondence and
many kilograms in regard to the mat
ter. over which he thinks he has no
control. The bishop said that he did
not see what action he could take, if he
was DESTROYS of taking any. The ordi-
nation of a priest was entirely q mat
ter of local control. There was a set
method of procedure, and if it was car
ried out and the candidate for orders
commended by the standing committee,
the bishop of the diocese had no re-
course except to ordain the candidate
He thought that Bishop Potter in this
case had exercised wise discretion and
judgment, and that his letter explain
ing his course was a very clear and
convincing document.
Bishop Clark has also been much dis
turbed over the Funston matter. The
Rev. j. b. Funston of Portsmouth, Va
was to have been consecrated bishop of
the diocese of Boise. Ida, but. owing
to the protest of eleven bishops, the
celed. A special meeting of the house
of bishops has been called to meet in
st. Louis in October for the election
of bishop for Japan. The Funston
matter may be referred to that con-
vention also by the presiding bishop
for action. No other business can come
up except that for which the conven-
ton is called, which would prevent ac-
ton by the house of bishops, should
such action be contemplated.
In answer to an inquiry as to his
views of the modern tendency of cler-
gymen of other denominations who get
into trouble with their churches flee
ing to the Episcopal church for refuge,
Bishop Clark said:
THE Episcopal church is very roomy.
1t contains men from most divergent
views on many subjects. AS long as
a man is able to subscribe to the ereeds
and is morally Improbable, he is gen.
orally acceptable, and some of the men
who have thus far come from other
have proved to be very
valuable EpiScOpalian clergymen.'

THEY STILL STRAY AWAY.
Presbyterians Have Another Case of
Alleged Heterodoxy.

New York, May 16.:It is almost GER
tain that the alleged heterodoxy of DR..
Arthur c. McGiffert, professor in Union
Theological seminary, will be brought
up in the meeting of the Presbyterian
general assembly, which begins at
Minneapolis on Thursday. At the last
meeting of the assembly. minute was
adopted requesting Dr. McGriffert to
explain a number of passages in work
of his, entitled History of Christianity
in the Apostolic Age" passages which
many of his fellow ministers criticized
strongly as subversive not only of the
standards of the church, but of essen
tial Christianity. DR.. McGiffert's reply
to the minute or petitions from various
presbyteries may bring the matter up.
The presbytery of New York will not
figure as one of the petitioners, al
though among the commissioners from
this presbytery who will be relied upon
to second the attack upon the professor
will be the Rev. DR.. G. w. F. Burch and
the Rev. DR.. Robert S. Sample both
of whom distinguished themselves by
the ardor and determination of their
assault upon the orthodoxy of DR..
Briggs.
DIR. McGiffert, it is said, will main
tain that his book is purely a historical
work: that history is not theology. and
therefore he is. or ought 10 be, beyond
censure for heterdoxy.

FROM FISH SPRINGS.
Interesting Budget of News From
This Camp.

George Crismon, T. NJ Weller,
Charles Crismon, B. J. Cook and f. NJ.
Lyman jr., the mining engineer, con-
stituted party that went over to Fish
Springs d few days ago, to inspect op-
erations at the Utah property.
With the exception of b. ]. Cook, who
has accepted the position of superin-
tendent at the mine, and Charles Girls
mon, who stayed over to watch devel-
opments for a short time, the party ar
rived home Monday night
George Crismon, president of the
company, talked entertainingly of his
visit to the district. AT the Utah"
said he, I'VE are sinking a new shaft,
through which we shall be better able
TO work the mine. The old shaft was
nothing more than prospecting affair,
and it became necessary, with the de-
velopment of the mine, to have better
facilities for handling the product.
While the new shaft has been going
down, a drift has been run from the
800 level of the old workings to connect
with the new, when that level was
reached. The two shafts are about 800
feet apart, and at a point in the drift
some go feet from the old shaft a nice
body of l00-ounce silver ore, carrying
40 per cent lead, was opened up, and
the new Shaft will undoubtedly run
into the same body when that depth
is attained. The new shaft is a first
class double-compartment one. and is
now down go feet. Nice bodies of ore
are uncovered and being worked
through the old shaft, and a carload
shipment reached Salt Lake today. An
other shipment is being made up and
VIII be sent out TO the railroad just as
fast as We can secure teams to haul it,
While the ores from the Utah have
10 be hauled seventy-five miles to
Oasis, on the Short Line, and from
there shipped by rail to Salt Lake, they
are OF such high-grade that hand
some profit is still obtained.
MIR. CrismOn says a force of about
twenty-five men are now on the pay
roll at the Utah, and as it is the inten-
ton to send the new shaft down to a
depth of LOCO feet, a larger force will
be employed when drifting from the
new shaft commences.
Regarding other properties at Fish
Springs, Mr.. Crismon says the Last
Chance, which adjoins the Utah. re-
Gently struck a good body of ore, and
shipment is now being made.
The Vulcan, another promising mine
there, also had a shipment ready to
send out, and were only awaiting teams
TO do the hauling.
Coming home the party passed Sam
ellison on the road. headed this way for
timber and supplies.
The Fish Springs district is not
large one, according to Mr.. Crismon,
but much may be expected from it on
account of the large bodies of high |
grade ore it is developing.

MR.. DALTON RETURNS.
Assays From the Acorn Show Rich
Values In Gold.

Frank Dalton, the well known mining
man, has just returned from Marys-
vale. and will so back this morning to
make further preparations for ship
ments from the Wedge and Treasure
Vault mines. In speaking of these
properties Mr.. Dalton says they have
been cleaned out and everything put
in shape to start TO shipping regularly
az soon as the snow disappears
Mr.. Dalton is greatly taken up with
tie Acorn, an adjoining property, in
which he is extensively interested He
says a vein four feet wide has been
opened up, which carries free gold in
larg quantities, with frequent pieces of
horn silver. The property was recently
organized into a close corporation, all
the stock being held by no more than
twelve people.
Assays have been taken from Acorn
ore which gave values of $500 in gold
and 100 ounces silver.
Mr.. Dalton IS of the opinion that the
Gold Mountain district, especially the
Horse Heaven portion of it. will soon
become one of the greatest mining
camps in the west.

Provo, May 1.-THE owners of the
Norma group of copper mines in Emery

have commenced operations on the
property, and intend to rush develop
ment work from now on. Tom and
Albert Altman and Mayor S. S. Jones

mines are Provo men, among whom
are George Havercamp, Mayor Jones.

have been working the property in the
past, but a new force will now De Put

with solid backing looking into the
merits of Cintah's mineral propositions
than at any time in her history. Fa-
Vorable reports continue TO come in
from all along the lime belt, with its
string of copper deposits that reach
from Deep creek on the west to the
state line on the east, a distance of
seventy-five miles. while just over the
line and along the same belt comes the
Bromide, in the vicinity of which sew
eral new and important strikes have
recently been made. Several eastern
parties are now after the Bromide
mine and smelter and the bidding for
that splendid proposition has been very
lively recently. The mine was sold for
big round sum recently by a Denver
agent of the local company. but the
deal could not be followed up by the
owners, owing to an option given to a
big syndicate that ties the property up
till the 1st of June.
Major Brummell, a mining man who
represents Arizona capital. is in town.
The major made a visit to properties
on Deep creek last week and was IA
vorably impressed with what he saw.
a deal may be conSummated in that di-
rection in the near future.
Matters are beginning to hum up at
Carbonate. The Dyer people are stead
lily increasing the force of men. Con-
tracts have been let for the construc-
ton of boarding and bunk houses to
accommodate an increased force
The telephone line is being pushed
between Nernal and the mine and Will
soon be in working order.
Preparations are going forward for
the smelling plant that will arrive in
the near future.
Stock in the Silver King, which lies
two miles south of the Dyer, and which
is believed by many TO be as big
proposition as that property when de-
Yeloped, has taken quite a jump of
late.
The hills are full of prospectors and
matters are assuming a business-like
acpact
