PLEASED WITH ELY TRIP.
Salt Lakers Delighted With What They
BaW in Nevada.

To attempt to give any extended
ideas on the impressions gained by the
excursion to Ely would be to repeat
what has been said continually during
the past eight months. II was Jlred
but delighted crowd of Salt Jakers
who rolled into the city Monday morn
ing from the famous copper camp TO
The west, All were more than pleased
with the manner in which the railroad
company had attended to their wants
enroute and al Ely, and all expressed
their grstification over the treatment
accorded them through the well.laid
plans of Manager NJ. L. Rcqua, OF the
Nevada Consolidated company.
Every effort was nsdo by Mr., kcqua
and those who assisted him 10 show
every possible attention TO the visitors.
The Salt Lakers who had read so much
about the great copper deposits of the
district took advantage OF the situa.
tiou, and made as thorough an eXamiD-
alton of the exposed resources OF Ely
as possible under the circumstances
and short time allowed them. Without
a single exception Monday the returned
visitors expressed themselves surprised
over what they saw. The trip, how.
ever, was rather strenuous one, snd
as soon as Salt Lake was reached prac,
tically all the travellers sought their
homes with all possible speed.
Several who had made the trip to
look into the business conditions OF
the Ely country have been greatly
benefited by the trip, and they have
the advantage for future use conse.
quent upon close contact with things
as they are IN that district.

NO RICHER COUNTY
THAN OLD BEAVER
Eastern Investor Takes De-
cided Fancy to Mines With
in Beaver County.
HAS ACQUIRED THE
Old MOONEY GROUP
Will Begin Active Development
Work Upon This Ground
Next Spring.

+. H. Wilson, who recently acquired
some extraordinarily rich iron mines III
Cache county, this State, is 40 cuthusi-
astlc convert TO the mineral riches Of
Beaver county. Mr.. Wilson S home is
in Washington, d. c., and he stated
Monday that he would remain in Salt
Lake Indefinitely. During 4 recent trip
of investigation into Beaver county,
with his Salt Lake associates now owns
the Mooney group Of eight claims, situ~
ated west OF Frisco and within iii teen
miles Of the Nevada line.
The Mooney group has bccD no
stranger to activity in tho past. The
property was worked at least thirty
years ago for its horn silver values, and
as an evidence that the property has a
future Of usefulness before it, the pres
ept owners need only show the amount
Of money il took TO convert the prop
orty 10 their possession. Mr. Wilson
states that he had heard for many years
that Beaver county was a worked out
proposition, and that the coming season
was to be a banner one, The mere fact
that BeaVer county properties have
been known TO contain mineral for
the future docs not hold remuneration
for the owners,
This theory, states Mr., Wilson,
cannot be maintained in the light of
present developments. The county Is
full of ore, and Of orc that does carry
magnificent values. lie is of the opiu-
ion that no other portion of the State
Of Utah presents more actual openings
for capital, aud he states that care,
full examination Of the resources of the
county will convert capital rapidly IT
the trouble is taken TO make a careful
investigation
The owners OF The Mooney group will
rctimber and clean out all The old
workings upon their property, and by
spriug will be counted among the most
active in that county, MI Wilson
states that large force of men viii be
placed at work, and genuine mining
done in earnest. He looks for a great
boom for the county and for the town
of Milford. In speaking about his iron
properties Of Cache county Mr, Wilson
states that no moro pure orc was ever
tested by the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company of Colorado. The ore carries
20 per cent iron, there arc no deleteri,
Gus matters contained within II, and
thero is a vast deposit Of it awaiting
development. Hc is now employing Il
force OF men upon this group.

Clark states that he has big enough

MEETING WITH GOOD
SUCCESS IN NEVADA
Manager Snyder of Nevada
Fairyiew Company Has
News for Investors.

Grant Snyder, who is managing the
property OF the Nevada Fairview com
papy, arrived Sunday cYeuIng trom
the Fairview mining district. Although
the Nevada Fairvicw company has not
been organized nor at work for any
great length Of time, the management
has succeeded in opening up one of the
most promising properties in that nest
of surprises. Mr.. Snyder is entirely
satisfied with the Developments so tar
on the group within his charge, aud
brings with him TO Salt Lake some
good news Tor the many local investors
Interested in this company.
The management is driving TWO tuu.
ncls, the longer of which now is in Tor
distance Of 100 feet. Mr.. Snyder
states that there is vein in this work
1t has the making Of one OF the dis
trict,s star orc bodies, He states that
II viii not be necessary TO drive this
tunnel over twenty or thirty feet far
ther before. striking the ore, which
shows so prominently upon The surface.
This orc, be states, was opened up on
the surface for distance OF fully 200
feet.
He estimates that 100 feet farther
on the tunnel will tap the cross 6ssure
which showed large dimensions upon
the surface. This ore ran anywhere be.
tween SIS and $50 per ton IN silver and
gold, The second tunnel states Mr..
Snyder, is in ore OF high grade, but the
management has started 20 sink upon
tins body, aud The extension OF the
tunnel will be. delayed for some little
time during this new work. AT the
point where sinking was commenced
and the management has every reuson
to look forward TO startling develop
ments rs depth Is gained upon this re-
source.
There is one additional cross fissure
upon this group which bas been opened
at intervals for distance OF 500 feet.
Fourteen samples from this bssure have
been taken aud sssayed, and the values
have run between Sl5 10 Sl24 per ton
III gold and silver. Mr.. Snyder states
that there was not a sample OF the lot
but what carried values between these
figures. The company is employing one
II tho largest forces in the district,
aud DO efforts are being spared in open
ing uD the resources with all possible
specd Mr.. Snyder viii be in the city
for several days before leaving for tkc
property again.
NJ" Snyder states that the company
has secured an option on q group. Of
caims adjoining the Nevada Fuirvlcw
property on the north, and Il deal haa
been closed practically whereby thl5
group is to pass to other parties. There
is :, vein opened upon the surface OF
this group which gives values bct'7oen
go and S4j per ton. There is great
activity throughout the Fairview dis
trict, SINS Mr.. Snyder, and the present
supply Of miners could be greatly in
creased to the advantage Of the COM
papies now operating properties

The success of the old fashioned

while the evening brought crowd
estimated al from 5000 TO G.OO0 to the
park. Bleuer's band furnished the
music and the days outing resulted in
no end of pleasure for the Woodmcn.
Owing to the fact that several of the
speakers that were TO appear on the
program in the evening were indispos-

WEATHER VERY UNCERTAIN
Observer Sherier Explains Why Fore
casts Often Fail in Summer.


The cool weather flag is DISPLAYED
again today. Whether it will bring the
desired change is the question. OBJ
server Sherier of the local weather bu-
fee. today stated that the present sea
son has been characterized by less
pronounced movements in warm and
cool waves than usual. This condition
is termed ''stagnation" in weather par
lance. An instance is furnished to-
day. Through western Iowa cool
weather prevails, there having been
heavy rain as far west as Des Moines.
By all rules this cool wave should pass
this way and give relief here tonight.
Yet there is a possibility that it will,
as in other instances. fail to make the
expected progress or be detected and
miss us entirely. The summer season,
with its small variation in tempera-
ture. Mr. Sherier states. is far more
difficult for the prognosticators to deal
with than winter. when the changes
are more pronounced. In the last
three periods OF oppressive weather.
the signal service has failed daily in
its efforts to pull down the tempera
ture
