FEDERAL GRAND JURY
TO RESUME BUSINESS
Many Witnesses Are Summoned
to Explain Coal Land
Deals.

The Federal grand Jury, now investi-
eating the coal land cases, will convene
again this afternoon at 2 clock, after
an adjournment Of week, 1t is
thought that the witnesses who had
been subpoenaed prior to the adjourn,
ment will keep the jury busy the great
er part of this week, as there were a
dozen or. more who had not been cx-
amined when adjournment was taken.
The sensational testimony given be-
fore the Interstate Commerce commits
sion last week will, it is thought, pro-
vide material for further investigation
by the Jury and will probably result
in the subpoenaeing Of another lot of
witnesses.
While it is known that n number of
indictments have been placed in the
hands of the United States Marshal.
which will be served after the grand
jury has concluded it's Investigations
and made its report to the court, it is
impossible to ascertain who the indict-
ments are against, and contempt Of
court Is on the tongue s end of every
Federal official approached on the sub
lect.
1t has been thought that there might
possibly be a leak from the Washington
end, as there was in the case of the
Oregon land frauds, and that the names
of those against whom the indictments
are returned might leak ont before they
are served but thus far no news has
come from the capital. and there is
every indication that the informal ton
will be carefully guarded until after
the United States Marshal has gotten

Of the stocks are put on the market in

completed to Copper Flat. and from 300

Is Successful Mining Man.
Mr.. Nelson is one of the successful
mine operators of the new copper camp
In Nevada. He has been In Ely only
one year, but has promoted two of the
most promising mining companies there.
After long struggle lasting for
many months, Mr.. Nelson got complete
control of the Ely Robinson Copper
company, splendid property adjoining
the Giroux Consolidated Mines com
pany's holdings in the Robinson mining
district of Ely, New. Last week Mr.
Nelson was induced TO sell the control
Lieutenant Governor of Nevada; Mrs.
Thomas II. O'Niel Of Ely and D. NJ
Ellis, formerly of Ogden, Utah. How.
ever, before Mr. Nelson would consent
TO sell the property. the condition was
demanded that $4,000 be expended on
the property at once. Immediately a fter
the deal was closed fifteen additional
men were put to work on the property.
The new managers will be in Salt Lake

The Ely Robinson Mining company
owns thirteen claims in what is known
as the proved belt of Ely. and now
that it is ably financed it should become

Mr.. Nelson is the original promoter
OF the Ely Robinson Copper company,
and therefore takes great pride in its
future success, IL being now only a

men agree that the ground is some OF

OF forming n company TO take these

the claims now under option by these
gentlemen are about the only available
ground IN the proved district They
feel confident that success will be their
lot In Salt Lake, because Salt Lakers
have long since shown their willingness
TO take hold of anything that has merit.

"INsPIREs CONFIDENCE"
Nonresident Capitalists, Says F. w.
Little, Will Now Invest.

"We have been expecting this for
about two years" said +. W Little,
of the real estate firm of Little & Lit
tie. ''The property has been worth the
money for some time; the fireworks
were ready and all that was necessary
was for someone to apply the match.
Although it may seen that this de-
mnnd for business property came rather
sudden, it has in reality developed
gradually.
''There has been hardly time dur
ing the last two years that we have
rot turned away from one to four peo~
pie, in the period Of one month"; who
were looking for business locations.
The transaction cousummated last week
will do much in the future toward in
ducing nonresident capitalists to in
vest in Salt Lake real estate; it will
inspire confidence.
"Speculation in mining stocks is rife
at the present time, but the money will
be invested in real estate eventually
and the growing interest in Salt Lake
realty will cause the population TO in
crease at an enormous rate during the
next few years. Tho outlook in every
way is brighter now than it has ever
been before

In talking with a Tribune representa-

known real estate man, said;
First Of al, [ want to congratulate
Mr.. Newhouse on his purchase and for
the great faith which he has in Salt

MAIl of the property he has purchased
will double in value within a few
years.
HThe real estate he has purchased
and the improvements he promises to
make surpasses any real estate deal that
have ever heard of in the West.
No one can tell the great amount of
good il will be to Salt Lake City. It
has already increased the value of all
the property within tho city
% In my opinion, Salt Lake will grow
faster IN the next five years than in
the past twenty-five.

house will keep real estate men busy
for many years TO come.

OPINION OF A. A. ROBERTSON.
Result Recent Big Sales VIII Mean
Large Inyestr1e ents Here.

f'It seems to me that the real estate
market here goes by fits and starts, ,
SAID \. a. Robertson, OF the firm Of
Homer & Robertson, Sunday afternoon.
. A San Francisco man stated TO me
several days ago that a man mas to
have the Bank OF England TO buy prop
erty here. Whenever an average sale
is made, up goes the price, and conse-
quantly the property will not sell,
After things have quieted down, and
owners begin to drop. something comes
up and again the price is scared out
Of all reason What the people here
ought to do is to create steady and
constant demand for real estate, but as
it is these prices are so very uncertain
that the conservative business man
does not take friendly 10 the PROPOSE
ton and generally goes elsewhere.
1.-The result of the recent big sales
will undoubtedly create a healthy mar
ket and Will result in a great deal of
inquiry from the outside. 1t will mean
the investing of q large amount of out
side capital, providing owners do not
raise prices to a prohibitive figure. If
they do and insist in crazy notions to
get boom prices Of fifteen years ago,
these sales will nave no permanent
beneficial effect. Another thing, that
the large investments on South Main
and State streets should call the at
tention Of property owners and owners
on those streets 20 the fact that un-
less the property IS improved, the whole
business center of Salt Lake City will
be changed.
1.-The decision of Mrs. Judge to
build on the southeast corner of Main
and Third South streets, is undoubtedly
the thing which made these other sales
possible -

building for the purpose of improving
and enlarging the hotel. That is all we
know about il at this time. Some al
teratious of the Halls hotel building
have been under consideration by Mr..
Pblpps for some time. But the New
house project, Of which the Halls build
ing is near neighbor, may lead to a
material change in the future disposi-
tion of this property.
Mr.. Phipps has large real estate
interests here, his Investments running
into the millions. We collect rents Of
sixty-seven houses owned by him every
cious, enterprising business man, Of
ample means, and when he begins TO
improve some of his holdings here the
people will see that something is be-
ing done to further the growth and ex-
pand the business of Salt Lake. But
there is absolutely nothing definitely
agreed upon along this line by Mr..
Phipps as yet, the statement of n pub
lication TO the contrary notwithstand-
ing"
Mr. Tuttle spoke of many buildings
in the business district of Salt Lake
that might be improved in such manner
that it would not only be benefit
to the building itself, but it would have
the effect of enhancing the value of adj
joining property.
"Don't you think, Mr. TuttIe, that
in order to support greater Salt Lake,
this city should be made a manufactur.
ing centerl''
''Most assuredly, and in order to Sc
cure them and get them established, the
railroads must, and / think will, CO.
operate in establishing and maintaining
manufactures here. They can materially
assist in these enterprises by adopting
uniformly low rate for the transpor-
tation of raw materials, etc. Mauufac-
tories are bound 10 come; they cannot
much longer be kept out.
In order to make Salt Lake great
city, one thing must be done. The peo-
pie must all pull together for Greater
Salt Lake.
