MINES AROUND ELY.
p. C. Weber Tells of Outlook for
Nevada's Copper Camp.

NcNdud IOppCI OdHp'
Salt Lake Herald, July 1: p @. Weber.
manager Of the Sapho Company's prop
critics near Ely, White Pine County,
Nevada, who came in from camp
Wednesday on his way to st. Louis.
stated yesterday that just as soon as the
Democratic National Convention ad-
journed he would go on to New York,
where he expects to completely fl.
nance the Sapho Company.
OF conditions generally around Ely
Mr.. Weber said they were quiet just at
present, though everything indicated
ally known some of the big corpora
tions have become financially involved,
but their affairs. Mr.. Weber states, are
being rapidly adjusted. The camp is
one of great merit. the mines are there,
and the day is coming when everything
will be alive and hustle.
1t has been settled that the Giroux
properties will be equipped with a
smelter before the end of the present
year. The needed water for the plant
will be secured by putting pumping
plant on the Giroux shaft on Old Glory
hill and the smelter will be erected at
point not far from there.
The White Pine Copper Company has
also decided to make provision for the
dressing of its ores, and the intention is
to equip its Ruth mine with a 50-ton
concentrator. Just where the water to
run it is coming from Mr.. Weber said
he did not know. but he presumed the
company knew what it was about.
otherwise the plant would not be
ordered.
D. N. Harper, the Boston and New
York promoter, has secured bonds on
all the properties lying between the
Giroux and Copper Flat mines. and the
understanding at camp is that during
the Fall vigorous campaign of de-
velopment will be inaugurated upon
them.
In many other directions there are
unmistakable signs of revival and the
visitor believes that next year the Sec
tion around Ely will boom.

SIX SHOTS AT INTRUDER.
Tom Kendall Empties Revolver at .
TOnOpah Stock Broker.

Tonopah Sun, June 30: Six loud re-
ports Of revolver rang out in the still
Of the night about . O'Clock Monday
morning. The noise came from the
heart Of the city. close to the postofiice.
and aroused the whole neighborhood.
Particulars of the affair are not easy
to get, but it seems that Thomas Ken.
dali arrived at his home from mining
trip in the night, and in the dim light
saw the form Of man approaching too
close to the place at that hour to suit its
owner. E. L. Minis, the stock broker.
has since proved to be the individual.
Without further parley Kendall fired nix
times. Minis was not hit. and ran like
a scared wolf down Brougher avenue,
cutting of into side passage to get ont
Of range. ff
ALI the following day Minis remained
in the:city, but did not show himself
more than was absolutely necessary.
That night, q few minutes before the
departure of the stage, he appeared at
the ticket Office looking as though wor.
ried about something. and bought .
ticket for Sodaville. He may have gone
further, and no doubt is headed for San
Francisco. 1t is not likely that he will
dare show himself in Tonopah again
while Kendall remains here.
Virginia Enterprise Another account
says that Kendall found Minis in his
home when he returned late at night.
and that Minis escaped being hit by any
of the shots fred by Kendall. Kendall
met Minis the next day and gave him
until the first stage left to get out Of
Tonopah.

Carson Appeal: The Appeal is taking

ing any one Of the three aspirants for
the place will acceptably fill the position

the Newlands letter. which first ap-
peared in the News, has been recalled by
that he sent it to several Eastern papers.
and then wired them that it must not
be printed, and that he had made a mis-

its work.

The United States Senaforship.
There is considerable discussion of the
United States Senatorship in the West
ern part of the State. OF the three men
now prominently mentioned as the Dem
ocratic candidates, none seem to have
the strength necessary to pull down the
plum. Sadler, Sharon and Fitzgerald
each have their friends, but unless one
of them develops a great deal more
strength than he now seems to possess,
some other candidate will carry off the
nomination. Governor Sparks. notwith.
standing his declination of the honor.
is still talked of as possibility. He
seems to have more strength than any
of the others mentioned for the place.
As the Senatorship now stands it is any
body's fight. At least this is the i'm
preston that the writer gained in Reno
and Carson last week.-Elko Independ-
ent.

Fire at Grand River.

The thriving little town of Grand
River in the northwest part of the
county had quite a fire yesterday morn
ing. About 4 O'clock it was discovered
the frame store building occupied by
Blain's millinery store was on fire and
the flames had made such progress that
nothing could be saved from the build
ing, the stock being total loss. The
Blain's carried small insurance but
their loss will be considerable. The
flames spread to the adjoining frame
building occupied by the Valley Bank
and it was also burned. Their big safe
passed through the fire all right and
when it was opened the books and con-
tents were found to be uninjurcd. The
building was owned by the bank the
loss being about $500, and it is fully in
sured. The building occupied by the
millinery store was owned by Fred
Ticknor and was also partially insure ed
so that the loss will not be great.

An old house on J. w. Walton's farm
east of Leon, occupied by I. S.
Moreland, was destroyed by fire last
Saturday morning about 10 o'clock, the
fire starting from defective flue, and
had made such Roadway that the build
ing could not be saved. Moreland
saved the most of his bedding, but he is
an old man on whom the loss falls quite
heavily. The house was very old one
and Mr.. Walton does not consider he
lost very much.

State Senator Marion F. Stookey and
representative E. J. Sankey went to Des
Moines Friday SO as to be on hands at
the opening Of the legislature on Mon
day. The only plum in the way of an
appointment that fell to Decatur county
was the appointment of J. G. Smith, of
Garden Grove, as one of the janitors,
the salary being $50 per month. The
lower house met in the senate chamber
and the senate crowded into the Su-
preme Court chamber. Gov. Cummins
created somewhat of stir by person
ally reading his message to the legisla-
ture in which reference was made to tho
insurance fee collections during the
Merriam regime, recommending that
the fees collected be refunded. 1t is
thought the session of the legislature
this year will be short one.

more than satisfactory, so he came back
for more. He also expects to buy fine
Short Horn bull while here.
