WON'T CLOSE SHELTERS.
Mine Owners Have Faith Courts Will
Protect Industry.

The week has closed and the threat
ened suit gainSt the STnelterS. by the
farmers living in the valley, backed
by the county board of health. has not
been filed and no injUnctions have been
prayed for. In the meantime the big
reduction works have been running at
capacity and the usual volume of gold,
silver lead and copper bullion has been
turned out and the miners have re-
ceived pay for their ores just as they
have been in the past.
Inquiry among producers yester
brought out the fact that mine owners
are not worrying. over the possible re-
suits Of litigation. Few of them be-
lieVe that any court viii attempt to de-
stroy the industry upon which the
foundations Of the states property

NEW ROAD TO KAWIcH.
Route From caiiente Covers Good
Country in 10 Miles.

A new road is proposed from Cali
ente to the Kawich country, which
is not only by several miles the shortA
est by which freight can be trans
ported from the railroad, but will open
a road over which the farmers of our
valleys can haul their produce and
find a ready market, says the De-
Lamar Lode. The proposed road will
leave Caliente via the old freight road
to Grassy twenty-eight miles, thence
to Crystal springs in Pahranagat val
ley twenty-five miles. from Crystal
springs ii will run due west TO Reed
springs summit, a distance of ten
miles; from there to Ticabco springs
Is twenty miles. and from Ticaboo
springs to Chalk springs ten miles.
from Chalk springs to Kawioh twenty
miles, making the entire distance 10
miles, by several miles the shortest
route from the railroad 70 the Kawfch

COPPER BULLION OUTPUT.
SHELTERS Forwarded over 1900 Tons
to Market During Week.

While none of the copper shelters
gave out figures on the weeks output
of bullion there is no doubt that it
was fully up to standard, as each of
the plants was hauling its normal
tonnage Of ore The Bingham COM
pany withheld the figures yesterday,
not because it had anything to con-
'ceaI, but because the management did
not care to stand alone in supplying
tha data
The Utah Consolidated company has
forwarded six carloads of bullion. AS
the cars are always loaded with $4,000
pounds or more, it can be seen that
more than $50 tons of bullion has gone
out. The Bingham company. has
shipped five carloads and the United
States company four This is fifteen
carloads for the three plants, or an
aggregate of over !, 500 tons of bullion.
