son, Thomas j. Frisbee, on their farm in Bel
fast Nov. 18th. With the exception of six
years in California he followed the sea un-
til well advanced in life. He sailed gener-
ally as steward of deep water vessels and
had visited nearly every part of the world.
He sailed out of Gloucester occasionally in
fishing vessels, and sometimes remained
ashore for season and worked as rigger
at which business he was an expert. He
owned, and with the assistance of his sons
carried on for many years, the farm on which
he ended his days. He was married twice.
His first wife was formerly Sarah Kimball
of Belfast and his second Abbie Packard of
Waldo. Both are now deceased. He leaves
two sons, George w. and Thomas j. Fris-

WINDING UP AT MARsAc.
Cold Snap Has Frozen the Tailings
and Work Will Cease.

Advices. received at the Ontario com
pany's office from Superintendent
Blood, of the Marsac mill at Park City
yesterday, were to the effect that the
severe cold weather had frozen the
tailings dump so solidly that it would
be very difficult TO keep the mill run
ming, even till the first of the month.
Mr.. Chambers said last evening that it
looked as though hauling would cease
very shortly and after a cleanup the
fires would be drawn and the mill
closed down for the winter. What
would follow he was not prepared to
say, hut it is doubtful whether the
working of tailings will ever again be
taken up.
During the six months in which the
mill has been in operation, or since the
7th of June, nearly $4,000 net tons of
Ontario mill tailings have been treated.
The metallic extraction amounted to
something over 100000 ounces of silver
and 32.7 ounces of gold, with an ap-
proSimated value of S71,500.
The Marsac mill is the property of
the I'aly Mining company and has been
operated by the Ontario under lease.

TO MEET NEW CONDITIONS.
How the Ores From Ontario and DAILY
West Will Be Handled.

Now that the spur from the Union
Pacific depot, Park city, to the mouth
of the tunnel below the Ontario mill,
is nearing completion, great prepara-
lions are being made to handle the
PRODUCTS of the properties, which will
in future load at that point.
Covering the mouth of the great I'M
dergrOund roadway which connects
with the Ontario. DAILY and Daly-West
mines, is a large building which was
constructed several years ago with the
intention of putting in machinery to
treat the tail;ngs which have since.
been worked over at the Marsac and
this structure is now being converted
into a station for the reception of the
trains of mine cars which will bring
out the ores and carry back coal. tim
Der, powder and other supplies TO the
mines named. Platforms will be con-
structed on the sides and above the
trackage of the Union Pacific on which
the loaded mine cars will be run out
for the purpose of unloading onto the
freight cars. while on the ground be-.
meath trackage VIII be provided for
empties. where coal and other materi-
ais can be quickly transferred from the
railroad trains. In this way all work
will be done under cover and secure
from the elements. and from present
indications the old teaming methods
will have been entirely done away with
by the middle of January.

Miners office, during which time doc
uments were exchanged between HIM
self and Colonel Miner and Mr.. Dear
The latter were non-committal, and
asserted there was nothing that could
be said Just yet 1t was learned from
other sources. however, that a deal had
been consummated; and while it is not
believed Colonel Miner and his asso-
ciates have sold out entirely. it Is al
most certain that Mr.. Ladd has Sc
cured such hold that the Colorado
syndicate will pay stated amount as
a royalty on all ore removed from the
property.
In this. way the title would remain
vested in the present owners. 1t
amounts TO practically the same thing
as lease, and the ground would be
developed at the expense of the Colo
RADIO concern
So far as can be ascertained. Mr..
Ladd has, during his several visits to
this state, succeeded in tying up an ag-
gregate of about 200 acres of ground
with iron ore in almost unlimited guam
titles.
There will be enough to keep i'm
mense smelters and rolling mills in
operation for years to come. The open
ing of the iron mines in the near future
means the immediate extension of the
Rio Grande Western into the Piute dis
trict The Utah & Pacific will certainly
build in, too, and get its share of traf-
fic. The launching of the iron indus
try will also quicken the construction
of line on to the coast. Rapid strides
will surely be made toward the devee-
oT1ment of the southern part of the
state next year

He is not here and he has never been

went away from Salt Lake shortly after
his petition in bankruptcy was filed. He
has not been heard from since by very
many persons though he is supposed TO

Sympathy Behind the Decline Of
Utah Stocks.
SYSTEM IS CRITICISED
BOSTON BROKERS MAKE AN AS
SEGMENT.
Dillaway & Starr Go to the Wall On
Account of the Break In United
States Stock-A. F. Holden Placed
at Head of Observation-Disclosures
Causes General Satisfaction
Especial to The HeraldJ

Boston. Dec. 19.-The declines in the
prices of Cochiti. Utah, Bingham and
other Utah stocks in this market are
due almost entirely to sympathetic
selling in connection with the break
down in United States mining. In fact
the most potent cause in the present
local slump on the stock exchange is
the drop in United States and the
methods of the men who were buying
the mines are being severely criticised
An almost certain outcome OF the sltua-
ton is the retirement Of Messrs. Clark,
Coolidge and Cole as factors in the
copper situation for some time to come.
The Old Colony Trust company this
morning advertised that it is to act as
depository for all shareholders who
wish to pay their shares into the pro-
posed pool which, it is thought, will
be turned over to the Standard Oil in
terests at from $12 to SIS a share, al
though there has been as yet no definite
offer and acceptance. Clark and Cool
idge have already assented to the de-
post of all shares standing in their
names held by brokers or pledged.
The firm of Dillaway & Starr, brok
ers. was forced TO assign today as
result of the United States disaster.

ord of the proceedings will now be re-

with the result that the matter was
finally referred, as above stated, to the

DECLARE AGAINST SLAVERY.
Strong Resolution Adopted By the
Federation of Labor.

Detroit, Dec 1.-THE American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor today declared against
slavery within the jurisdiction of the
United States in the following language:
I'VE reaffirm our previous position on
this question. namely. that there must be
contract. tolerated under the American
flag. and that we will make any one
whose action shall in any way initiate
against this principle of human freedom
mate manner open to us.
1t was stated that 10000 slaves are
now working under contract in the Ha-
waiian islands; that evasiin of the con-
tracts commits them to prison; that their
time in prison is added to their terms of
serfdom. and that the act admitting Ha-
for continuation of these contracts, a pro-
vision for repeating that feature having
been voted down by the senate.
A proposition for establishing d court
of five arbitrator, to be appointed by
each annual convention of the federation,
to settle all questions of jurisdiction be-
tween the various federated bodies was
rejected. A majority of the delegates
held that such arbitration would be I'M
fair
Resolutions were adopted as follow:
Favoring shorter hours for BARRIERS; urS-
ing the government to provide more sea-
worthy life boats: requesting placing OF
union labels on school books; bringing
machine coopers under the jurisdiction of
the Coopers' union; endorsing granite
cutters contention for an eight-hour day;
requesting all federated union which are
connected with the Chicago Building
Trades Council TO instruct their delegates
there to so vote that the local unions of
granite-cutters shall not be interfered
with in following legitimate craft lines in
Chicago.
The debate between the printer and ma
chinists delegates as to whether the lino-
type machine tenders should be trans
ferred to the machinists jurisdiction was
long and warm. The machinists express
ed willingness to have the question arh-
trated
The printers hold that since many of the

BUYING THE STOCK BACK.
Shareholders In Old Centennial-Eu-
reka Company Purchasers.

The announcement came from Bos-
ton yesterday morning that A. F. Hol-
den had been elected president of the
Centennial Eureka Mining company to
succeed Edward A. Clark, who was
forced to retire in the crash along with
Messrs. Cole and Coolidge.
This was good news to local investors.
Several leading brokerage firms were
advised of the situation early in the
day and some heavy orders were sent
east for Centennial Eureka securities
1t was a notable fact that a large por-
ton came from officers and sharehoid-
ers in the old corporation, who
thoroughly understand that to get stock
around $50 a share is dirt cheap, and
that il is only a question of a short
time until it is almost certain to
double that amount.
The mine will produce after Jan. l.
steadily, 100 tons of ore a day that Will
average better than $40. so at that rate
during the coming year the output
would amount TO more than the stock
WAS selling at in Boston Late in the
day the local brokers were unable to
fill but few of the orders wired to
Boston.
United States stock was lost sight of
entirely. No calls were reported for it
and there was but little demand for
Bingham Copper or Utah Consolidated.
There was a better feeling among 10
cal investors and brokers over the news
of the situation teiegraphed from the
east. and it was the general impress
sion that the bottom had been reached
and that from this time the stocks
raided would begin TO improve.
Hornblower & Weeks, the well known
Boston brokers, advised d. II. Peery
jr., that it was their opinion that stocks
had reached the lowest ebb and would
now begin TO recover.
The Boston correspondent of the, En-
gineering & Mining Journal speaks of
the situation in the current issue of
that paper, received yesterday, and con-
cludes by saying:
of course, tight money is blamed for
this, and there are appeals to the treas
ury for aid. Manufacturers and mer-
chants seem to have no trouble in get
ting the money they need, but specu-
lators who are trying to carry stocks
on borrowed money have a hard time
OF II. The cause of the present dull
ness goes long way back of any tenn
porary money stringency. Boston is
trying to recover from the big financial
spree of few months ago. People who
bought then for speculation cannot sell
out except at loss they will not sub
nit to unless they are obliged to. while
those who bought for investment are
loaded down with stocks that may
b,ing them some return by-and-by, but
are hard 10 carry now"

MR.. DEAR GOES HOME.

r. B. Dear, who is associated with
Colonel Miner in the iron fields of Iron
county left for Helena, Mont, last
night, and after spending a few days
there with his family will depart for
his home in Minnesota. Mr.. Dear
went away greatly pleased with the
outlook for Utah.
He believes the iron industry will

this state and it is only a question of
a short time until the southern coun-

tention just now. win be the scene of a
great deal of activity.
