there. He was prominently identified
with the operation of the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan properties as manager.
Later on Mr.. Clement became asso-
ciated with John Hays Hammond and
went to South Africa. There he was
identified prominently with the deveI-
opment OF the famous Rand mine. 1t
was he who planned the great mills for
reducing that ore. He was also promi-
nent in the development of other prop
critics in that section of the dark con-
tinent He was there at the time OF
the Jameson raid. 1t will be remem-
bered that there was a scheme on foot
among the Englishmen interested IN
the mines of that country to overthrow
the South African government. "A
great raid was commenced, but the
Boer government effectually blocked
this and captured many who were sup
posed to have been more or less oil
rectly implicated in the affair. Mr.
Clement, Mr.. Hammond and Charles
Buffers, who were connected with the
mines as engineers and experts for the
English, were taken prisoners because
their positions drew suspicion on
them. They and many others were held
in the African prisons for long NIne
and finally condemned to die. A short
time before the date for the executions
the United States section of the AsSo-
citation of Mining Engineers, with
membership throughout the world, sent
out circular letters to the members,
asking each one to prevail upon the
senato of his state to intercede in be
half of the American prisoners who
were to be killed. This was done and
the senators, through the government,
took steps to save the prisoners. The
result was that the American citizens
who had been captured were released.
1t was this settlement that saved Mr..
Clement from being shot.

West to Siberia.

After being released Mr.. Clement
came back to this country, but later
returned to London, where he remained
for some time. He was engaged in min
ing engineering there and became
known for his ability as an expert
throughout Great Britain. His reputa-
ton was such that he was called upon
to go into Siberia and look into the
mines of that country. He made the
trip through that section, examining
the mines but nothing of special i'm
portance ever resulted from the inVes-
tigation.
When Mr.. Clement returned to this
country he became engaged with Cap,
tain ]. r. De Lamar. He remained
with him as manager of his properties
for about six months.
For the past three years Mr.. Clement
has been giving most of his attention
to extensive mining properties which
he acquired in the vicinity of Saltillo,
Mexico. He had very valuable mining
interests there, but it is understood
that shortly before his death he dis
posed of the greater portion of his
interests to the Guggenheim Explora-
ton company. He was also interested
very heavily in mining ventures, local
securities and industrial stocks in this
city. 1t was understood that after the
sale of his Mexican properties he IN
tended to begin more extensive opera
tions here and devote more of his time
to his local interests. Only a short
time before he left here the last time
he remarked, in the course of a con-
versation with a friend, that he liked
Salt Lake as a residence place better
than any city he had ever been in, and
that he had great plans for the future
in local investments and improve
ments. Only year ago Mr.. Clement
was made handsome offer to return
to South Africa to manage a mine
there, but he refused on account of his
Mexican and local interests.
