AMENDING MINING LAWS.
Three Bills Before Congress- Re-
Iatinp to Mining Industry.

Three bills have been introd uced in
Congress during the present session
proposing to amend the mining laws OF
the United States. s.
One Of these measures Is to the effect
that the date Of expiration of min
ing locations shall be October l instead
of January /, the idea probably being
that owners who defer doing the nee
essary assessment work until the last
moment possible will have better wealth
err in which to do the work than during
the last month In the year.
Another aims to prevent the monop-
oily of mineral land by providing that
no person shall locate mining claim
as agent or attorney for any other per-
son, association or corporation. This
is foolish measure and was undoubt-
eddy introduced by tenderfoot.
The third bill provides for the repay
ment to the miner or mining company
of unexpenGed moneys deposited to
cover the cost OF plating and office
work in connection with the patenting
of mining claims.

THE CLARK ROAD.
New Route Into Salt Lake City
Being Surveyed

A party OF San Pedro surveyors
which has been working toward Salt
Lake from Rush valley yesterday
reached the neigh borhood of Lehi, says
the Salt Lake Herald. When they
reach Lalt Lake, which will not take
long, the work OF running the prelim-
mary lines out OF this city win be prac-
tically finished, and the directorate will
have nearly complete data on which to
base conclusions as to the route to be
followed out OF Salt Lake.
The party now at Lehi is engaged in
cross-sectIoning, having made the pre-
liminary survey some time ago. From
Rush valley into Cedar valley three
surveys have been made, coming over
Five-mile, Nine-m and Twelve-mile
passes. There Is not much to choose
between these passes from an engineer
ing standpoint. Out of Cedar valley
the surveyors have taken the same
pass as the one used by the Tintic
branch of the Oregon Short Line, COM
ing in near Lehi junction. Thence they
will go north through Jordan Narrows.
It Is believed this party will come up
the east side OF the Jordan. The other
surveys from the south have come up
tho west side. This route, it is gener-
ally believed will not be taken The
smelters are all on the east side of the
river, and these must be reached by
the new road. fthe route on tho west
aide we're taken, spurs would have to
be built at regular intervals. For that
reason there is scant doubt that the
route east OF the river will be finally
chosen, provided the main line goes
south of Salt Lake. If the main line
roes westward around the south end of
the lake, a spur will have to be built
to the smelters.

AS TO LEAD.
The Shelter Trust Is Likely to
Have Competition.

Regarding the reduction.in the set
Ting price OF lead the Salt Lake Tri-
bune OF Sunday lastesays:
The lead producing companies will
meet the present week for the purpose
OF considering aud taking final action
on the agreement which commits them
to $3.50 as the settling price of lead for
the first six months In 1902. The meet
ings include those OF the Daly-West,
the Quincy and Anchor OF Park City,
the action of the latter TO govern the
California, which is forwarding its out
put under the Anchor contract with
the American Smelling and Refining
company. To date there are only two
known companies that will refuse to
sign the agreement, and on January
LIST each OF these will suspend shipments
until such time as they shall have
found. another market. 1t is claimed
that the year will afford them COMPETE
ton at least il it does not afford them
a lighter working charge, and that
there will at least be three concerns to
bid on tho product. To just what COM
petition the management of the COM
panies that will suspend on January
1st the production of lead ores is rely
ing is not known unless 1t be the Rocky
Mountain of Colorado or the Bingham
Consolidated and United States of this
valley. The management of the Bing-
ham Consolidated some time ago per-
mitted the announcement that it would
construct lead furnace with which to
treat its lead ores from the Dalton &
Lark, of which it has an enormous vol
ume that cannot find profitable treat
ment at the custom plant. That it will
go further in its equipment and provide
for custom ores is not known. Again.
the United States Mining company Is
putting up plant and to this it is said
the lead producer is looking for relief,
as the management has some lead ore
of its own to treat, and again the presi-
dent of that company said on his last
visit that he ha come to Utah to
learn that there was money in the
smelling of ores.
