Hon. David Keith, on his return to
Salt Lake from Tonopah and Gold
field, stated to the Salt Lake Tri-
bune-'sThe developments at Tono-
pah and Goldfeld are among the
most extraordinary since the sensa-
tional days Of the Comstock.'
At Tonopah he was extended every
courtesy by Secretary Durham OF
the Montana Tonopah, and, while ne
did not feel at liberty to go into de-
tails, he could not refrain from ex-
pressing establishment at the splen-
did results achieved in so short a
time. The SHOW VIM under ground,
said he, is especially impressive IN
the Macdonald ledge, although the
condition throughout is reminiscent
Of DAYS in the chambers OF the ola

British Cabinets Position.

London. Aug. 16.-The final Cabinet
council OF the Parliamentary session
was held yesterday afternoon at tho
foreign office and gave particular at
tention to tha question of the neu-
trality OF China and British action on
the Russian reply to the Knight Com
mander representations.
After the council closed the emphat.
lc statement was made that Great
Britain feels 1t absolutely essential to
her own interests and those Of the en-
tire world that the neutrality Of China
shall be observed by the two belliger-
ents. Great Britain will make earnest
efforts to secure this result.
In connection with the Knight Com
mander case the British government
will instruct Ambassador Hardinge
that 1t cannot admit the contention
that the steamer was rightfully sunk
and will insist that there was no JUS
tihcation for SO doing In international
law.

Eggs.
Cultivation of Rubber Plant.

Colorado is truly wonderful state.
The varied character of its industries
has long been known. Few persons,
however. thought a few years ago that
the production of rubber would ever
be one of them.
The discovery of a rubber plant in
digenous to this state has wrought a
wonderful change and now it is an
nounced that within eighteen months
there will be ten factories in operation
extracting rubber from the Colorado
plant and producing as much OF the
crude product from an acre as an acre
in the tropics of Africa from rubber
plant of different species.
Inquiry seems to have settled salts
factorily two important matters. The
first is that the plant in question pro-
duces enough rubber to make its ex-
traction a profitable industry. The
other is that the plant can be produced
by cultivation. The rubber factories
will not have to depend solely upon the
supply Of these plants growing wild
In the mountains. They can be pro
duced. and thus the stock can be
maintained from year to year.
I 1t is represented that the cost per
ton Of crude rubber will be only about
$500, whereas the present price Is
about $500. This will leave big
margin OF profit. The demand for rub
ber Is SO great that 1t will require
many years for its production in this
state to reduce the price. ~

BRIEF wAR NOTES.
Port Arthur Ships Try Again 70 Eo.
cape.-Novik Reported Sunk.

SSROs0SV0VtN pVPOtS00 OVUNs
Che Foo, Aug. 16, 2 p. m.-Ths Rus
sian ships at Port Arthur made sortie
early to-day. They are now being pur-
sued by the Japanese. A severe en-
Yagement is expected.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 16.-The expec-
tation here is that Port Arthur will fall
at any moment.
Especial significance is ascribed to
the fact that Lieut.. Gen. Stoessels
wife and children went to Che Foo on
board the torpedo boat destroyer Ryes-
chitelni.
Toxic, Aug. 16.-Admiral Togo re-
ports that vessel of the type of the
protected cruiser Pallada was torpe-
doed and sunk in the engagement Of
August 10th.
Berlin, Aug 16.-A dispatch to the
Lokal Anzieger from Toxic, dated to-
day, confirms the reports that heavy
fighting has occurred at Port Arthur
during the past few days. The Japa-
nese captured three Russian batteries
and secured positions close to the
inner Notifications. Both sides lost
heavily. The Japanese have conn.,
menced the bombardment from Lang
mountain on the harbor and inner de-
fenses.
The hauling down Of the flags of the
Russian vessels at Kiao Chau took
place in accordance with instructions
of the German foreign office, which,
having ascertained that the damage
sustained by the warships were too
serious for repairs to be made within
a reasonable time, ordered the ships to
be disarmed. They will be kept in
port until the closing of the war.
The crews Of the Russian vessels
have been ordered to be detained by
the German authorities at Kiao Chau
until the close Of the war.
London, Aug 16.-The Russian
cruiser Novik was sunk yesterday for
ty miles off Kiao Chau, after leaving
the German port, and Admiral Togo
has torpedoed and sunk another cruis-
er Of the Pallada type, but whose iden-
tity Is unknown. The Japanese are re-
ported in hot pursuit of the other Rus
sian survivors, which are badly Grip
pied and will doubtless be sent to the
bottom.

WATER CONTEST:
THE kANsAs-coLoRADo DISPUTE
Opening Of tho Case Before Special
Master at Wichita.-imposinQ
Array of LeuaI Talent.

Wichita, Kan, Aug. 16-In the
case of Kansas vs.. Colorado the TAX
ing Of evidence for the plaintiff was
+ begun yesterday morning before Spe-
cial Master Granville A. Richardson.
During the day the testimony Of six
witnesses was taken. The Kansas at
torneys endeavored to show that Colo
RADIOS system of irrigation had de-
stroyed the Arkansas river underflow.
One of the most interesting as we'll
as historical pieces Of evidence that
was given was that of Col NJ M Muir
dock, editor Of the Wichita Eagle. He
said that he had made test holes in
1861 for the purpose of getting water
for his oxen and himself when this
country was virtually a barren prai-
rie. He stated that when digging into
the sand but few feet he found water
which settled the fact in his own nina
that there was an invisible river or
underflow in this country. He also
gave testimony of the condition of the
river from that time up to the pres
ent.
The next witness was o. l.. Mulvey
of Arkansas, formerly city engineer OF
Wichita. His testimony was similar
to Col. Murdock's with the exception
that he gave additional figures se-
cured while constructing the sewer sys-
tenn of the city, which tended to prove
that there was an underfiow from the
northwest to the southeast, extending
from the front of College hill, on the
west of the city, to the river. The
taking Of evidence probably will oc.
cupy about three days. The attorneys
present at the opening of the hearing
were:
Attorney General N. c. Miller of
Colorado, Judge Hayt of Denver, C. C.
Dawson of Canon City and Platt
Rogers of Denver, representing the de-
PENDANTS, and Attorney General c.. c.
Coleman of Kansas, N. H. Loomis of
Topeka, F. Dumont Smith of Kinsley
and s. S. Ashbaugh of this city, attor-
neys for the plaintiff.
In addition to these, Anthony G,
Campbell of Washington, District OF
Columbia, special assistant to the at.
torney general of the United States.
who is here to look after the govern
ment's bill of intervention, and Prof.
L. G. Carpenter of Denver, state engi-
neer of Colorado, were present when
the hearing began.

Production Of Iron Ore.

Washington, Aug. 16.-The report Of
John Birkinbine to the geological sur
vey on the production of iron ores in
1903 shows that the United States has
surpassed all competitors in its yearly
output of iron ores. 1t says that the
quantity of iron ore produced In the
United States in 1903 was 35.019,3 ,30S
long tons, a decrease OF 534,827 long

The quantity mined In 1908, Is, how
ever the second largest recorded and
Is greater than the combined totals for
the year 1902 of Germany. Luxembourg
and the British empire, which are the
nearest competitors Of the United
States.
Nevada was added this year to the
list of producing states, while Yer
mont and Montana reported no ore
mined in 1908.

1t is estimated that At, 900 helpers and
laborers and $4,000 employees of ma
terial men would be thrown out or
work, making total of 10000 Their
loss in wages would amount in round
figures to $4,000, 900 a month, in addi-
ton to which the capital of the 1000
members of the building trades employ

lars invested In property undergoing
improvement would be tied up.
The employers declare they are de-
termined that the arbitration agree
ment adopted a year ago shall be re-
spected with the open shop policy as
the alternative.
Counsel for the building trades al,

tion to push the suit in which 1t is
sought to have the employers associa-

Damaged Condition.
Toxic, Aug. 15.-Vice Admiral Kan.
imura encountered the Russian Vladi.
.vostok squadron at dawn yesterday
north of Tsu island in the strait Of
Korea, and attacked the enemy at
once.
The battle lasted for five hours and
resulted in a complete Japanese VIC
tory. The Russian cruiser Rurik was
sunk and the cruisers Rossia and
Gromoboi fed to the northward after
having sustained serious damage.
Vice Admiral Kamimura cables the
navy department that the injuries in.
dicted upon his vessels were slight.
The fate of the crew Of the Rurik Is
not known. 1t is presumed that many
Of them were killed or drowned.
The strength Of the fleet under
Vice Admiral Kamimura Is not known,
but 1t Is presumed that he had the
Adsasuma, Idsumou, Idawate, Taxa
shisho and other light cruisers.
Toxic Is joyous over this news, as
It gives Japan the mastery Of the sea
and restores commerce.
The raid conducted by the Vladi.
.vostok squadron in July was ex-
tremely oppressive to Japan, and not
only was retaliation tempting, but It
was demanded by commercial inter.
ests.
The navy refused to make diver.
sion and stuck to Port Arthur and
waited for a fight in the open sea
away from the Russian forts.
