Some of the Deposits.
Joe Letter viii not get all the hydro
carbon deposits in the state. Another
eastern syndicate is in the field and its
representatives have been making ex-
aminations OF the large tract of ground
owned by Don c. Robbins and J. H
Robinson in the vicinity of White river
and Soldier Summit.
The ground is divided into three
groups, which are located in Utah and
Wasatch counties.
Messrs. Robbins and Robinson have
operated in that section for the past
ten years in various mining enterprises
and in that time located the ground,
Which they believe to be about the
cream of the country.
Mr.. Robbins said yesterday that one
group contains d large deposit of
Albertite, while the others are marked
by large veins Of elaterite.

Centennial-Eureka Stockholders Re.
ceive Their Pro Rata.

The stockholders of the Centennial
Eureka mine who made up the pool of
$1,000 shares to go to the Boston pur-
chasers yesterday received their pro
rata of the S154,000 placed in the Gus
tody of Treasurer W. w. Chisholm a
few days ago. The payment was the
one-tenth part of $40 a share, at which
price the stock was sold.
Up TO the present time all but $50
shares, out of the total capitalization
of 10000, have been heard from and are
favorable to the deal

from Colorado, or about week hence
the sites for two new shifts on the line
of the tunnel would be surveyed and
the work of sinking at one or both of
them would be commenced at once The
first one, to be located in keystone
gulch, is to go down without fail or
wait. but the time of commencing the
other depends somewhat on pending
negotiations with properties to be ben
efiated by the tunnel.
Mr.. Lamson says the new drills are
doing splendid work, and fine Roadway
is now being made. The company, he
says, is in prime financial condition,
and the next twelve months will see
work performed that six months ago he
was fearful would require three or four
years. The big tunnel scheme is just
beginning to be appreciated, and the
advantages it offers in the way OF
drainage and the economical extraction
OF ores are now better than ever I'M

COL. DORSEY RETURNS.
Says Utah Is Considered the Favorite
For Investments.

Colonel George w. E. Dorsey of the
Galena King and other mines has re-
turned from a seven weeks trip to the
cast, where he went on mining bust
ness. The colonel has presented some
Utah propositions to the eastern in
weston, but he says nothing has ma
tured sufficiently to talk about at the
present time. Utah, he says, is re-
ceiving lots of attention in the east at
the present time, and a great many
capitalists are turning this way for
investments. The mining interests of
the state are talked of everywhere, and
he predicts that the amount of new
capital to be introduced into this sec
ton within the next year will be some
thing enormous. He says there is no
question that Utah enjoys the distinc-
ton of being looked upon as the most
favorable spot for investments of all
the states in the west

TIoGA DEVELOPMENTS.
Encouraging Reports Come In From
That Mercur Mine.

Encouraging reports have come in
from the Togo property in Mercur.
where developments are in progress
The ground is being developed by a
tunnel which has reached the length of
4l0 feet. The workmen under Superin-
tendent Moody have encountered some
hard porphyry and progress is very
slow. There is also a shaft down on the
property to depth of 10 feet and it
is the intention to take up the work
there and prosecute n little cross-cut-
ting in order to determine the width
of the vein encountered at that level.
Values have been obtained in the
shaft all the way from the depth of
sixty feet and some very good ore was
encountered. The vein crops out on the
surface for over 1000 feet and lies be-
tween a lime and porphyry dixie
The tunnel is 300 feet below the shaft.
1t IS thought the porphyry will soon be
passed through and the ore behind it

THE DODGE WAS A FAILURE.
Two Partisan Beauties Try to Give
Guerin Provisions.

Paris, Aug 1.-Two professional beau
ties, Mile. Lame de Pougy and Mile
Blanche dArvilly. made an attempt to
revictual the fortress" of Jules Guerin
tonight.
In stylish landau they had concealed
legs of mutton and other edibleS be-
meath flowers, and they pretended to
be dying with curiosity to see the
Grand Occident, the name by which the
building is known. The police, however,
were suspicious, especially with refer
ence TO a garland two yards long,
which proved to hide a loaf of bread.
The dodge failed. The police discOv-
cred and stopped the hole in the eel
lar in the house adjacent through
which food supplies had been conveyed
to tine beleaguered anti-Semites.

Labori's Retort to Jouaust.
NJ. Labori said Major Lauth insinu-
ated that Corningue was trying to levy
blackmail. Was that his idea?
Colonel Jouaust refused to allow the
question and NJ. Labori exclaimed:
You disallow every awkward ques-
ton" (Sensation)
The stir caused by this lively retort
had not yet subsidized when the govern
ment commissary, Major Carriere rose
and begged to point out that the de-
tense was constantly asking leave to
speak and that when he, the commits
sary, asked to do so he was refused the
necessary permission, to which Colonel
Jouaust replied:
Il have heard enough. Held your
tongues. Be quiet. The incident is
closed" (Prolonged laughter
General Hyppolyte Sebert, retired, of
the marine artillery, deposed He eriti-
cized the bordereau from profession
al standpoint, pointing out that the
writer must have been a low classed
man, negotiating directly with a cor
respondent on whose doleS he was de-
pendent. He said he was probably an

Then Colonel JouauSt called the next
Major Ducros of the artillery,
who showed that Dreyfus had abund-
ant opportunity in 1894 to obtain infor-
nation relative to guns, but did not
take advantage of them.
General MERCER tried to belittle this
testimony by saying Dreyfus was
aware that knowledge of the |
Ducros gun was no longer of import |
ance since the gun had been rejected |
IN favor of the Depot gun.

Robinson, Sept. When David
Evans returned from the May Day this
evening he was very enthusiastic over
the outlook. He said it looked just like
the Uncle Sam ore everywhere. In the
sixty-five foot Wine sunk at the tun-
mel end 75e feet in, they have gone
through over twenty feet of ore clean

Evans said they had nice ore in the
