ped her as a saint. When her
fame reached Tomochic it had cur
ious consequences.
1t seemed that most people there
came to the conclusion that a new
era had dawned. Actual circum-
stances were pressing enough; the
long-looked-for change seemed to
be immenent. Religious slpersti-
ton received tremendous i'm.
pulse. A few more indispensable
saints were easily created; payers,
masses, and processsons, like in
times Of old, became the order of
the day and even the political
authorities were expected to take
secondary rank. That was what
produced the clash. In Mexico
you are free to worship what and
how you Fplease, but political
authorities come first Of all, and
besides you must not get up armed
religious professions. The gov
ernment tried to persuade the peo-
pie to abandon their silly practises
but to no avail This stubborn
ness of the, latter finally brought
about the crisis. The town was
attacked by federal troops and de-
molished, the Notifications of the
religious party taken and those of
them who were not killed scatter
and driven to the four winds. Be-
tween zoe and 600 soldiers fell, a
lot of property was destroyed and
the town laid to waste. Happily,
unlike Santo Tomas, it is slowly
rebuilding.
We are now two days travel
from Jesus Maria, which is the CEN
ter of one of the richest mining
regions of the Sierra Madre. Gold,
silver, copper, lead, iron, etc., are
found in abundance. Enterprise
has found an. encouraging field
hero and is leaving its stamp upon
the people and surroundings. You
notice the change and enjoy it.
The natives seem more intelligent,
industrious and prosperous. Every
corner of available land is made to
produce; even in the small settle
ments you are able to buy provis-
ions, a circumstance that is a very
favorable indication. Consequent
ly our hopes about Jesus Maria
were not small, / am glad to say
we were not disappointed.
On Oct. 9th we reached the
highest divide we had yet crossed,
1899 feet; after that it was down
hill to 500 feet. Our road lay
through a picturesque canyon,
winding and twisting IN most
perplexing manner. We did not
see tho town till we were right up
on il. When we entered its mar
row streets we were an object of
much curiosity.
Jesus Maria looks more like a
Spanish than Mexican town, the
streets are narrow and irregular,
Most Of the houses two stories
with ridge roofs. The dispro-
portionatley great amount of trade
and enterprise concentrated here
strikes you very favorably. There
is no end of stores, shops and
booths where dry goods, groceries,
meats, fruits and vegetables are

Business on the Salt Lake stock ex-

DIRECTORS NOT NAMED
SELECTIONS WILL BE MADE To-
MORROW.

The final action necessary to the con-
solidation of the property of the Mercur
Mining company with that Of Captain
J. r. DeLamar's famous Golden Gate
was taken in this city yesterday af-
ternOon, when both sides voted to deed
their holdings to a company to be form
ed under the laws of New Jersey, to be
known as the Consolidated Mercur
Gold Mines company, capitalized for
S., 600 GOO. divided into 100000 shares of
IA par value of s. each.
Promptly at o'clock Vice President
John Heinrich called the meeting OF
Mercur stockholders to order. and after
learning that ia, 500 shares were repre-
scented and selecting Manager George
h Dern to act as secretary, the bus
mess for which the meeting was called
was soon disposed of. IT consisted or
adopting "a resolution authorizing the
officers and directors 90 sell 10 the cor
pOration to be formed all the cOmpa-
ny's property, according TO the agree
ment with Captain DeLamar previously
ratified.
At the conclusion of the Mercur meet
ing General Manager Hartwig A. Co
hen, representing the DeLamar side,
appeared at the Mercur offices and no
tilted Mr.. Dern that corresponding ac-
tiOn with that of the Mercur stock
holders had been taken by the Golden
Gate, and grasping DR.. Dern by the
hand good naturedly remarked:

are now one"
All that now remains to be done is
to form the new company, elect Off
GERS and directors, transfer the deeds
and wind up tkc affairs of the old or

commenced and on Monday all dOcu-

In the meantime both companies will
continue to operate separately it hav-
ing been agreed to make the final sep
arate clean-upS on the day the new

Neither Mr.. Cohen nor Mr. DeTn felt
positive who would constitute the new
board in it's entirety, but the selections
will have been made by tomorrow or
next day, when they Will be announced.
Who most of them will he has already
been announced and ii repetition at this
time is unnecessary.
Manager Dern was asked if he could
estimate how much of dividend
would go to the MerCuT stockholders
after the final cleanup was made, but
he declared that it would be impossible
to do so at this time. The MeTcur mill
