WORK
YET TO BE DONE ON THE MIDDLE

ING DISTRICTS.
President Burt of the Union Pacific
Speaks Concerning the Cut-Offs
Line From Evanston to Salt Lake
Not FeasibIe-RaiIroad Notes.

President Burt, Chief Engineer Der,
ry, General Manager Dickinson and
Superintendent Park were in Ogden
yesterday on a general our of inspec-
ton, says the Salt Lake Tribune.
Messrs. Burt and Berry went west at
II 80 a. m, over the Southern Pacific.
The others returned eastward. The
Ogden Standard of last evening quotes
President Burt as follows:
My trip is ont of inspection as far
as Ogden said he, land | am going
to San Francisco simply on a visit, as
l have relatives there. No. | am not
going to consult President Hays, and
my trip has not bearing or the cutoff
from Ogden to Lucin. That is a mat
ter belonging entirely to the Southern
Pacific and with which | am in no way
connected"
When asked if a cutoff from Evans
ton to Salt Lake or from Uinta to Salt
Lake by the Union Pacific is a posi-
unity VI lie lutilS, ne III
mo such cutoff has ever been under
serious consideration for n moment
by the Union Pacific officials. 1t is not
feasible and would not be a good bust
ness proposition. You can state posi-
lively, as coming from me. that there
will be no such cutoff The work on
our line that is now under way is to be
pushed rapidly and when completed
other work of a similar nature that has
been planned will be taken up. The
Union Pacific has accomplished nearly
all that is possible, however, in the
way of improvements. There are still
a few cut-offs of a few miles in length
on the middle and eastern districts of
the Wyoming division. and then the
Improvement work will be transferred
to the line between Evanston and Og'
den, where the grades will be reduced
and the line will be Strengthened.
The greatest improvements which will
shorten time on the transcontinental
lines are to come on the Southern Pa
cific. The largest of these are to be
the cutoff from Shoshone to Iron
Point and the elimination of the grades
and curves between Ogden and the
Nevada state line
President Burt refused to discuss
the Ogden-Lucin cutoff.

CLAIMS MADE BY CORRESPOND
EMIT OF THE WYOMING
TRIBUNE.
Asserts That Mines In the Laramie
Territory Are in the Saratoga Dis.
trict, When in Fact They Are Many
Miles Nearer This City and Much
More Accessible from Here.

A correspondent of the Cheyenne
Tribune, writing from Saratoga, grows
very wild in some of his assertions, and
they are hardly worth noticing. except
that they are calculated to mislead the
readers of so widely circulated paper
as the Tribune.
Many of the mines and camps ren.
toned by the correspondent are almost
absolutely inaccessible to Saratoga,
and some of them are many miles near,
er to Laramie, with no insurmountable
obstacle OF the road.
Even the Rambler mine. which sends
its ore to the Encampment smelter on
account of a better price. offered that
the lev smelter might be kept employ.
ed and get a foothold, draws its sup
plies from Laramie, and will continue
to do so, for obvious reasons.
The Tribune's correspondent says:
Saratoga is the center of a mining
region, which from present develop
ments, will not be surpassed by any
territory of the same extent in the
United States.
The mines are generally copper and
gold propositions. North and east OF
the town are Pass creek mines in Elk
mountain district. On the east is To-
Gated Gold Hill; southeast, Douglas,
LNrnr,h and pr,ch ,rnal rirac. south
Grand Encampment, Cow and Big
creek mines; southwest, Battle Lake
and Savory creek mines; west, Sand.
stone and SavOry creeks.
These mining camps are located
within a radius of twenty to thirty
miles from Saratoga, and much of their
supplies are drawn from the town, and
the shipments of ore necessarily pass
through it by wagons on its way to the
railroad.
The Ferris-Haggarty is at present
the largest shipper, the value of the ore
reaching nearly $400.0 900 since the
spring of 1899. Then follow the Ram
bier, Kurtz-Chatterton, Syndicate, Mu,
tual, Northern Belle, Hercules, Has,
kins, Copper Belt, Paris, Portland, Be
hemian, Comstock, Cox, Gold Hill. Gold
Coin, Charter Oak and Gertrude.
Then there are the Great Lakes and
Garoutte properties. Then the Eure'
ka, Jennie Queen, Headlight, Finley
Cold Water, Illinois. Dewey, Bi-Metal'
lie, Black Tiger, Little Robert, Mail
Pouch and Vulcan.
Bay Horse, Evening Star, Ruby
Group, Osceola, Kearns property, Act
ia and News Boy. The ores are large
ly sulphide and in many instances run
ming to copper glance.

Three Forks, the Venture company's

The completion of the road from the

of country and make trading with this

And So They Were Married.

CHICAGO, March T7.-Announcement is
made here of the marriage of John 7.
Shayne, the wealthy Chicago merchant,
and Mrs. Martha X. Hammond, former
wife of Harry H. Hammond. Mr.. and
Mrs. Shayne are now in New York city.
They were married on Thursday last in
Pittsburg, Pa, at the home of ex-State
Senator R.. E. Robertson. The wedding
recalls the sensational shooting of Shayne
by Hammond, nearly two years ago, in
the cafe of the Auditorium Annex, in this
city, where Shayne was dining with Mrs.
Hammond, who was then separated from
her husband. Shayne, though supposed to
be fatally wounded, finally recovered.
Hammond, who is a merchant tailor, was
subsequently, acquitted on the charge of
attempted murder and acquitted after a
sensational trial.

ONLY TWO BODIES
Found Yesterday in the Ruins of the
ST. Joseph, Mo-, Factory.

Found Yesterday in the Rims Of the
& ST. Joseph. Mo-, Factory.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, March 17.-Search Of
the ruins of the Noyes-Norman factory
fire resulted in the finding OF but two
bodies. which have been identified. They
are Misses Nora Bates and Louise Blon-
dean. A portion of another body, believed
to be that Of a woman, was found, but
there was no way TO identify the victim,
says the coroner. Considerable difficulty
was experienced to-day in getting at the
bodies. 1t was late before the fire had
been controlled sufficiently to begin work.
1t was learned hat there was but one fire
escape from the seventh floor Of the build
ing and at least twenty-five girls were
on this floor. One OF the girls who says
she was the last to leave this floor. says
there were probably five or six girls left
behind when she went down the fire es-
APE. and she thinks air persisted. The
fire had been burning fifteen minutes be-
fore the alarm to the girls on the top floor
was given. Excuse is made on the ground
that the employees expected to put out the
flames. and ave the alarm when they dis
covered they could not succeed.

PEKIN, March 1.-THE health Of Ii
Hung Chang is again a matter of grave
consideration to the ministers of the
powers. Mr. Rockhill, the American
special commissioner who visited Earl
Ii yesterday says he is a physical
wreck and apparently in a state of
utter collapse although mentally as
brilliant as ever. Mr.. Rockhill would
not be surprised to hear Of his death
at any moment.
The removal of Ii Hung Chang by
death of any other aus at the pres
ent moment would be very unfortu-
nate. M. De Giers (Russian minis
teri, said to-day:
Iii Hung Chang is a great diplo-
mat and his influence with the Chinese
court is absolutely unique. No other
man in China approaches him in this
respect. This influence is not temper
ary but it is particularly effective at
important moments in the history of
China like the present"
Senior De Cologan Spanish minister
and doyen of the diplomatic corps),
said:
THE Chinese court could not ap-
point a plenipotentiary of the same cal
ibre and having equal influence with
the Chinese and the foreigners. Al
though many of the ministers of the
powers object to his political methods
and regard him as essentially a trIrn-
mer, nevertheless they realize that he
is the best possible man to represent
China in the present emergency"
Orders have been received by United
States troops to depart next month,
leaving behind one hundred and fifty
infantry. The German headquarters
staff assert that these instructions are
a great mistake alleging that it is
necessary to retain a large body OF
foreign, troops in the country for at
least two years. Most of the minis
tiers, however, take a different view
of the matter, believing that the best
course is to retain a few of the troops
of each nation and to withdraw the
rest.

SCRANTON, Pa, March 17.-Presi-
dent John Mitchell denied himself TO
all interviewers to-day. He had no
statement to make, he said. National
Orgapizer Fred. Dilcher, however, was
quite the opposite of his chief. Il am
only giving this as my personal opin-
ion, but if the union is not recognized
before April LIST there will be a strike
is the uneQuivocal way in which the
presidents right hand man declared
himself.
The operators here say they are in
no position to say anything authentic
ally on the situation. AS n of them
put it, Mine men in New York are
the only ones who know how the COM
panies feel about this matter"
The general trend of opinion among
the superintendent is that the presi-
dents of the nine big coal roads will
new consent to a recognition of the
union, and some of them go so far as
to declare that if the truth were known
it might be that they are not alto
gether unwilling that the strike should
come. The United Mine Workers must
be met and vanquished some time,
these superintendent say, and the
present is an suspicious time because
of the large stocks of coal the compa-
MES have stored away in anticipation
OF such an emergency. +
Opinion is SO divided among the
miners themselves as to the wisdom Of
the striking for recognition, that no
general statement will apply in depict
ing it. There is no mistaking, though,
that if the strike is avoided it will be
a great qualification to them. They
are very much devoted to their union,
however, and if a strike is necessary
to preserve the union they can be
counted upon to turn out as a man.
The meeting of the national and dis
trict officers of the mine workers
union scheduled to take place in this
city tomorrow, has been changed to
Wilkesbarre. At this meeting it will
be decided what course is to be pur-
sued in case the operators persist in
ignoring the union.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. March H.
Surrounded by fully $4,000 Of his fel-
low citizens, the remains Of Benjamin
Harrison were this afternoon inferred
in the family lot in Crown Hill GENE
terry. Close by the grave were the
members of his family, President Nc
Kinley, ana other visitors of distinc-
ton and the more intimate friends Of
Gen. Harrison. Back a distance OF
fifty yards, behind ropes guarded zeal
ously by a large force of police, stood
with uncovered heads the great multi
tude who knew him not so well as did
they who stood beside the freshly up
turned earth, but who honored him
and admired him quite as much.g II
is doubtful If any public man, at least
in this generation, has been borne to
his last resting place among so many
manifestations Of respect. OF pas
sionate grief, there was little outside
the members Of the family, but the
tribute of respect was universal. 1t
came from ali alike, from those of his
own political faith and from those who
differed with him concerning what was
best for the nations good; from men
who have been his lifelong friends
and from those who knew him merely
by sight and to whom he had never
spoke. 1t came from women and chill
aren, from white and black, from all
conditions and kinds of people. There
was no exception anywhere to the ex-
preston that the nation had lost one
of it's ablest men and the greatest man
Of his generation in his own State. By
the grave stood the chief magistrate
of the nation and behind the ropes
were the street Arabs of Gen. Harri-
sons city; every grade of human lie
in America. between the two, was rep
resented in the crowd; and among
LQ6Iu dll LuGIS Was Uut Ouc lcSiluS, Cildt
a mar had died who was honest at all
times with himself and with others,
and whose ability and character were
such as the nation could ill-afford to
lose.
The weather, like that of yesterday,
was splendid, bright sunlight, the
warm breath of spring in every breeze
and yet in the air a touch of winter
that brought the blood to the cheek
and a sparkle to the eye.
The services at the church and grave
were simple in the extreme, all in
most excellent taste and like the pro-
ceedings yesterday, there was an utter
absence of friction in everything that
was done. All was well ordered and
we'll performed.

That Russian Aggression Will Even
tunlIy Lead to Wharf.-The English
Press on Russia's Action.
LONDON, March 18.-The Tien Tsin
correspondent of the Standard says:
1.-THE railway dispute here is another
of the attempts of the Russian Adj
miral, Aliexeff, to create trouble. and
unless he is removed there will be con-
slant friction, which will eventually
lead to hostilities. He loses no oppor-
tunity to thwart the English"
Commenting ~editorially upon the
Tient Tsin advices, the Standard re-
minds Russia that
"The British feet is as potent as
ever and Japan is burning to second
the efforts of any n ready to oppose
the annexation of Manchuria,"
Adding:
ut is a painful task thus to be COM
PEELED even to hint at contingencies
SO vast and disturbing, but the perils
Of the moment are more likely to be
overcome if it is thoroughly realized
that we do not shrink from such action
as would be best calculated to main
tain our rights"
The other morning papers recognize
the gravity of the situation at Tien
Tsin and counsel the government TO
be firm, but they express themselves
less aggressively.

we can put our foot down, the empire

street, met death in a shocking manner
tonight, being killed by her dog. Mrs.

mother, lived together. Mrs. Cobus
was 38 years OF age and subject to ep-
ileptic fits. Her constant companion
was a fox terrier of unusual intelli-
gence. Mrs. Elizabeth B~roadhead, Mrs.
Cobus' mother, says she went out into
the kitchen about Z o'clock. A few
moments later Mrs. Broadhead heard
the dog bark excitedly. The mother
ran out and found her daughter lying
on the floor. She knew 1t wal an ep-
ileptic attack and dashing a pitcher Of
water into her daughters face she ran
Into the hall and screamed Tor help.

DETAILS OF THE 0BsEQUIES.

INDIANAPOLIS, March 17.-At the
Harrison home before the remains
we're taken to the First Presbyterian
church, where the full service was held
there were brief exercises for the men,
bers of the family and more immediate
friends of Gen. Harrison. Possibly
$50 people were present. Mrs. Harri-
son did not appear, but remained in
her room until it was time to leave for
the church.
President Mckinley, accompanied by
Governor Durbin, called at the house
about / o'clock. At about the same
time the members of President Harri-
sons cabinet and others continually
arrived until the short services were
over. The people sat in the p~arlors,
filed the halls and a number of them
sat upon the stairs, while DIR. Haines
read a short passage from the Scrip
lures and made a few remarks touch
ing the life and character of Gen.
Harrison, as did DR.. Nicoll, of st.
Louis, and after a brief prayer by DR..
Haines, the services were over.
The florists wagon came to the house
and a number of the larger pieces
We're loaded into the vehicle prepara-
tory to being taken to the church.
Word was then sent to Mrs. Harrison
that the time had come for the body
to be removed to the church and she
at once anne down from her room into
the parlor. The procession was to
have left the house at 1870 o'clock but
1t wa fully thirty minutes later than
that when everything was in readiness.
The doors were thrown wide open and
the honorary pail bearers, who were

York; John Wanamaker, of Philadel-
phia; VIM. III. H. Miller, of Indianapo-
lis; John w. Noble, Of st. Louis, and
