Hon. Tom Kearns, manager of the

reason for his reticence in the matter that
the mine is largely owned by Silver King

t. H. Oman, assistant general man

make the ore extraction easier, it
worked hardship at the time. a con-
siderable amount of money has been
spent in cleaning the surface off to the
ore over the cave and adjoining coun-
try. This cleaning had to be done at
some time, and the caving made it
work more easily, the only point being
the increased expense at one time. This
surface which has been removed is $50
feet above the lower or mill tunnel, and
is over a part of the thickest ore body
yet discovered in the property We
now have large body of ore 100 feet
thick, which can be open-cut or quar-
ried, meaning very cheap ore extrac-
ton. The expense for mining and mill
ing, including development and i'm
provements, shows a little over $1.60
per ton dry ore. Had it not been for
extra work in cleaning the cave coun-
try and extra development and enlarge
ment, the ordinary mining and milling
expense would have been not to exceed
81 % per ton. We still think, however,
that there is room to decrease this ex-
pense.
Our output of gold should be larger
from now on, the mine being better
opened and the trouble occasioned by
the cave being past.
Should it be deemed expedient to in
crease the capacity, we expect to be
able to meet the added expense with
out stopping the present dividend.
A contract has lately been entered
into by this company with the Jordan
River Power company for the furnish.
ing of electric power to operate our
mill. This will make some saving to
the company. Respectfully submitted,
G. r. boutwell,, Manager.

THE GREAT DYER MINE.
One of the Largest Copper Properties
In This Western Country.


Rock NJ. Pope of Vernal, the able SUI
near that place, is in the city on bust
ness for his company, which is known
as the Uintah Copper Summit COM
pany, which is largely composed of Bos-
ton people.
In speaking of the Dyer, Mr.. Pope
stated that he looked upon it as being
one of the greatest copper mines in this
intermountain country, and he also said
that even the most Sanguine would be
agreeably surprised to see -e immense
bodies of fine ore blocked out in the
working of the mine TO illustrate which
he informed a representative of The
Herald that in tunnel No. 8 a breast of
copper bearing ore is exposed twelve
feet in width, which will carry average
values of from 40 to 4S per cent copper,
twenty ounces silver and So in gold to
the ton, while, with a little sorting, the
copper could be made to run so per
cent to the ton. In dozen other places
in the mine, also, splendid faces OF
high grade copper ore are exposed,
from which a heavy tonnage could be
broken down daily if desired, the eX-
traction being limited at the present
time to what is being taken out in do
ing development work only, a carload
a. month being sent either to Chicago or
Connecticut, the probability being that
the company will put a smelter of its
own in during the present season, when
the mine will take rank as a paying
proposition
Mr. Pope is giving employment to a
force of thirty men in the development
of the Dyer, and he is satisfied that
within short time he will be able to
make this the greatest copper producer
in the west.

BIG EXCURSION COMING.
Cincinnati Enquirer's Household

Mr.. S. F. Cary, representing the Gin
'cinnati Enquirer, was in the city yes
terday, making preparations at this end
for the great Enquirer Household

trusted for getting up some extraordi-
nary modes of advertising, and the

great paper, it appears, has proven no
exception to the rule. In fact, the aver
age advertising agency is SO far out
classed that old AesoD's story of the
turtle and the hare is not a fitting COM
parison.
The Enquirer's excursions are oper-
ated yearly, and. in this instance, Salt
Lake is to be the western terminal of
the tour. 1t will be a special eull-ves-
tibuled train, accompanied by a band
of twenty-five pieces, and the only
stops that will be made coming this
way are at Omaha and Denver. The
excursion stays over in this city two
days Aug. 10 and 20. William F. KEEP

caterer in charge.
The trip is of two weeks duration,
and the club, which, by the way, has
a membership of 1000, representing
nine states, offers all these oDDortuni-
ties for the sum of $780, exceedingly low
when the comforts of the train and the
pleasure to be derived from the trip IN

lar, are taken into consideration The
Enquirer gets out special club excur-

THE CUBA OF BINGHAM.
Five Feet of Good Copper Ore Uncov
cred In Its Workings.

While but little has been said of late
relative to the Cuba mine in Carr Fork
gulch, Bingham, the fact still remains
that this is developing into one of the
most promising copper producers of
this wonderful camp, which, in its min
eral resources, can boast of immense
deposits of silver-lead, copper and gold
ores.
At the head of the Cuba management
there are identified some of the best
known practical mining men in the
state and, under their direction and su-
pervision, it now. begins to look as II
it would be but a month or two before
this will rank as one of the regular
copper producers of this section.
Ignoring the old workings on this
property, the new operators began the
driving of a long tunnel, lower down,
when they took hold of the property,
the result being that when depth was
attained, a fine showing of good ore
was disclosed. This tunnel is now in a
distance of between 800 and 400 feet,
and in its face there is a solid BODY OF
fine ore, over five feet in width, which
carries average values of lis per cent
copper. 81 to So in gold and a few ounces
in silver to the ton, and at least six or
seven carloads of this class and char
acter of ore is piled up on the dump
awaiting the coming of good weather
and roads to find its way to the Salt
Lake market and The Herald is reli-
ably informed that when consignments
begin the mine will doubtless make a
record as a regular and continuous
shipper.
Manager H. H. Green, who is keep
ing close tab on Cuba developments, is
more than pleased with the splendid
showing in its workings

To Work the Alaska.

M. R. Hunt, the well-known mining
operator, who has been in Chicago for
the past few months, has returned to
Zion
Mr. Hunt is manager of the Alaska,
promising property in the Silver City
end of Tintic district, and informs The
Herald that it is his intention to re-
sumo work within a few days in the
extensive development and operation of
this prospective bonanza, which is most
admirably located, and that in its ex-
ploitation, the working shaft will be
sunk to the deep.
In commenting on Salt Lake weather,
as disagreeable as it has been for the
last six weeks, Mr.. Hunt stated that
it might be considered as balmy in COM
parison to the ''beastly' weather ex
perienced in Chicago during the past
winter, and he expressed great satisfa-
ton in being once more on this side Of

sion of the Rio Grande Western, pro-
viding no further trouble is encountered
from the weather standpoint. The
first rails to be laid will be on II street,
beginning where the company left off
last year. During the past few days
the contractors have had some trouble,
owing to the muddy condition Of the
proposed roadbed, and while work, I'M
der the prevailing conditions, has been
quite difficult. it has not been mater
tally retarded. The first gang, under
Deal Bros. & Mendenhall, is keeping
up with its average, and has reached
point near the mouth of the CANYON.
The second gang, supervised by the
above named firm, in conjunction with
the Roylances, has started it's work
eight miles out from Provo, as per con-
tract. They have over 100 teams and
more than double that number of Ia
borers at work. The Western shows a
determination to complete the extension
as soon as possible, and the people of
the south are glad to see the good work
so on.
No further contracts have as yet been
awarded. Those now in hand cover
fourteen miles.

Lion Hill Mines


James Kelly, superintendent of the
Columbia and Wachusett mines on Lion
hill, who is in the city on mining bust
ness, states that both of these proper
ties are looking well, and that active
work is being pushed in their develop
ment. On the Columbia Mr.. Kelly has
started a. new working shaft within a
short distance of the Northern Light
ground. This shaft has already reached
a depth of twenty feet and the indica-
tons are most favorable, Mr.. Kelly be-
ing of the opinion that the workings
will break into a body of pay ore inside
of thirty days.
In speaking of the mines of Ophir,
Mr.. Kelly stated that at the Old Reso-
lutte, over the destinies of which George
st. Clair so ably presided, a two-foot
body of ore is exposed which shows
metallic values of 100 ounces in silver
and a dollar or two in gold. the ore
being exposed in the bottom Of the 230
foot incline shaft, thus giving 200 feet
of good Stopping ground up to the sur
face, the understanding being that the
company will begin regular shipments
of this class of mineral at an early day,
so that it cannot be long before the as
ISOLATION is on Easy street."

ment of the group.
w. w. Mitchell of this city has just
returned from the island, and he will
set out for that section again tomorrow.
Mr.. Mitchell made eight locations dur
ing his absence, and he says that the
outlook is most promising and that
thirty or more mining men are there
prospecting and making locations, and
the number is constantly increasing. it
being understood that a party of Ogden
railroad men will cross over this week
and that Mercur mining men are ar
ranging to- leave for the new mining
camp as soon as possible.

WILL TRACKS BE LowEREDp
Interesting Time Expected Between
CITY and Short Line.

very interesting time may be looked
for when the city demands of the
Short Line that its tracks near the
Garfield Beach depot be lowered, or, to
make it more interesting, when the city
puts its own men to work on the job,
as the committee on streets has threat
ened to do. The officials think the city
asks, or will ask, too much; hence the
balk They contend that if the company
lowers its tracks, the Jordan river
bridge will be below the high water
mark, necessitating other improve
ments, and this, the company claims,
is too much of a good thing-a very
expensive thing. General Superintend-
ent Calvin was asked yesterday: "WiIl
the company lower the tracks, or fight
it out with the city," His reply was:
1T depends
This may mean something, OF may
mean nothing. Mr.. Calvin offered no
further explanation.

Short Line Demurs.

It is probable that the Short Line will
demur to the Nephi petition, on the
ground that it does not find any fault
with the present train arrangement, but
merely asks for an evening train in
addition to the one now operated be-
tween here and there. Business, the
claims, will not justify two
trains for the south, and a majority of
the residents prefer the present ar
under which the train
leaves this city evenings.

ON FEEDING IN TRANSIT.
Order to Abolish Rate Said to Have
Been Rescinded.

Denver, Colo, March 27.-Secretary
Martin OF the National Live Stock as
ISOLATION was today notified by the
Santa Fe Railway company that the or
der abrogating the feed in transit live
stock rates which was to have taken
effect April had been suspended until
May 20.
This is taken to mean that the rail-
roads have practically given up the
plan of abolishing the rate, owing to
the general opposition of the stock ship
Ders all over the west, who demand
that if the rate is abolished an equiva-
lent that will be as favorable to the
shippers shall be substituted Many had
made contracts based upon this rate,
and its adjustment would have worked
a great hardship.

EAGAN WAS MISTAKEN.
Refrigerated Beef Not Expected to
Keep 72 Hours.

Keep 72 Hours.
Washington, March 27.-The military
court of inquiry appointed by the presi-
dent to make an investigation of the
beef furnished the army during the
Spanish war has returned to Washing
ton and at o'clock today resumed its
sittings here. The members of the COM
mission are hopeful that they will be
able to conclude their work within the
next ten days, and expect to have some
important witnesses before them in that
time, including General Eagan, who
will be recalled. 1t is also expected
that General Miles will be given an OPP
Dortunity to testify.
Mr.. E. C. Swift, vice president of the
Swift Packing company, was the first
witness who appeared. He assisted in
preparing the contract for supplying
beef for Cuba during the war, coming
to Washington for that purpose first
on June %.
Mr.. Swift stated that he started to
Washington in response to a request
from General Eagan, when it appeared
that his firm had made the lowest bid.
Mr.. Swift made his second visit to
Washington on the 18th of June, when
the contract was submitted to him. He
had then made some objections to the
terms Of the agreement as presented to
him. Shore refrigeration was contem-
plated in all the conversation, and with
this understanding that this was to be
had, the company had agreed that the
quality of the beef should be maintain
ed for three days and nights.
Major Lee then stated that General
Eagan had said in his testimony before
the board that the company had guar
anteed that the beef should be kept
good for seventy-two hours after leav-
ing the refrigerator, either on ship
boa:s: or on shore.
II can only say" responded Mr.. Swift,
that General Eagan, at the time of
the interview, seemed to have the same
understanding of the contract that I
had. In view of his testimony, [ can
only say that he was mistaken
