which he declared that Mr.. Guthrie in
consultation with Max Pam had adopted
line of questioning designed to place
him in false and discreditable position
regarding the sale of his plant to the ship
building company. The protest was angry
and bitter in tone and intmatcd that Mr..
Guthrie had been unfair in asking him to
answer from memory questions about the
finances of his company without oppor-
tunity to look up the details, while Mr..
Guthrie had the benefit OF a full in
vestisation of the figures.
By agreement of the counsel the pro-
test was stricken from the record, but Mr..
Nixon thereafter during the hearing in.
sisted that if he were to answer questions
he should be allowed to make the neces-
sary explanations.
Meant to Wreck Company.
Besides asking Nixon about the organiza.
ton of the ship building company, the
valuations put upon the constituent COM
panies and the methods by which they were
reached, Mr.. Guthrie took up the alleged
Withholding of dividends by the Bethle-
hem company, an action, which according
to the charges of Receiver Smith, con-
templatcd the wrecking of the company.
Guthrie placed in contrast Nixon's at
titude in demanding, by letter to President
McIlvan of the Bethlehem company, that
the Bethlehem directors declare divi-
dend to save the shipbuilding company
and later at two subsequent meetings OF
the Bethlehem directors, in acquescing in
resolutions declaring it inexpedient to de-
clare such a dividend.
He also brought out that Nixon had
voted for the resolution for the expendi-
tures for bctterments. This was the means,
so Receiver Smith charges, by which earn
ings were diverted from dividends to need
less improvements.
Guthrle's Figures.
Guthrie took up figures from the fnan-
cial reports of the Bethlehem company to
show its inability to pay dividends. Mr..
Untcrmeyer, from the same reports, at
tempted to show that the expenditures for
betterments and new material were excess
sive and that the company might we'll have
declared dividend had it been so desired.
He was questioning Nixon about the trip
of inspection made by Bethlehem and
Carnegie officials to determine means of
improving the Bethlehem plant, when the
hearing closed for the day.
The redirect examination of Mr.. Nixon
will be resumed this afternoon and Charles
M. Schwab may be placed on the stand
later in the day.

Three More Bodies.

SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Virginia City, Nov. 6.-The latest adj
vices from the Kearsarge mine are that
the bodies of three more have been re-
covered: William Fleming, James Power
and Robert Donnelly. They were found in
the tunnel. They, with Tobin, were the
four men in the mine who Superintendent
Robert Turner and two others sought to
rescue.
The bodies of Superintendent Turner,
George Allen and Ed Lahcrty have not
been found They are supposed to be in
the sump in the bottom of the Apex shaft,
through which they were seeking to enter
into the Kearsage.
1t appears that when Superintendent
Turner called for volunteers to go into
the mine after the four missing miners,
George Allen, Edward Laherty and Jack
Hurley bravely stepped forward. Mr..
Turner proposed that they go down into
the Apex shaft, which is connected with
the Kearsarge workings Hurley was the
last to follow the other three down the
shaft by the ladder.
The smoke was bad and part way down
Hurley was Mortified to hear Turner,
Laherty and Allen fall from the ladder
and drop into the sump, which contains
about 80 feet of water. lie managed to
crawl to the surface and tell Of the un-
fortunate fate of the rescue party.
Efforts were at once made to rescue
them, but on account of the smoke and
gas the task was found to be desperate
one. There is no cage in the shaft and
it is necessary to build platform to be
lowered into the mine. No sound Is
heard and the poor men have probably
drowned 1t is expected their bodies will
be recovered this evening.

Miss Grace Crane, an intimate friend of
Mrs Turner, at once and she left today
for Virginia City, to De with the stricken
widow.
Mr.. Turner was native Of Chicago, but
removed with his parents to Colorado when
a child. His father, who has been dead
several years, was state auditor of Colo
rado for number Of years. Robert com
pleted his mining education in the Cen
tennial state and. devoting his especial at
tention to cyanide plants, soon became an
expert in that branch of reduction work.
Embarking young in the business, he
superintended the construction of and put
in practically all the famous cyaniding
plants in Colorado. Especially notable in
this regard was his work at Cripple Creek.

TURNER FEARED DEATH
AT AN EARLY PERIOD

The death Of Frank Turner depressed
r. b. Turner greatly. The latter ever
since that event cherished prescntiment
that he, too, would die before he passed
the age of sc, at which age Frank died.
Only few days ago he spoke to friend,
now in Butte, of this fear. STILL" he
said. laughing II am doing pretty well
now. | am getting fat. Why, | weigh II2
pounds now" He was slender, small
man and weight of Iia was greater than
he had possessed before.
Several years ago Mr.. Turner associated
himself with L. S. Mitchell of this city
in the mining machinery business, under
the firm name of Mitchell & Turner, with
Offices at 1903 East Broadway.
r. b. Turner was member Of the Ma
tional Society of Mining Engineers and
also of the American Society of Civil
Engineers.
The funeral, no doubht. will be in Vir-
gnia City. 1t will be attended by many
friends from Butte.
Because he built the first cyanide mill
in Montana at the Revenue mine Mr.. Tur-
ner was ncknamcd Cyanide Turner by
his friends. He built the Bozeman hotel
in Bozcman a number of years ago. His
wife was niece of General Lester Wilson
of Bozcman.
On all sides in Butte today were ex-
pressions of deep regret over Mr.. Tur-
ner's DEATH especially among mining men
with whom he was acquainted.

ENGAGED IN MINING
ALL OVER MONTANA

In 1883 Mr.. Turner came to Montana
and for time made his home in Butte,
but his operations extended into every
mining district in the state. He erected
the plants at the Revenue, the Madi-
sonian, the Shafter and other Madison
county properties and elsewhere in tho
state. Every plant that he ever put in
has proven success. 1t was expected
that the cyaniding plant he was installing
at the kearsarge would be the most mod
ern, complete and successful that he ever
undertook.
He was married before coming to Mon
tana. His widow and their young son
now reside at Virginia. Mr.. Turner's
mother resided with them in Montana
after the death of the elder Mr.. Turner,
but she died in Virginia City about year
ago. Frank Turner, brother, died in
Arizona two years ago. Another brother,
John K, lives in Denver, where he is con-
sulting engineer for several large mining
