Beautiful weather prevailed, and IL
would have been an ideal day for an

The crowd of women surged from one
store TO the other, where were displayed
the latest creations OF millinery art The

lady attendants Were kept busy catering
to the tastes OF numerous buyers. Before
each Of the many mirrors stood a wo-

Developments upon the Bingham prop

Thomas Weir returned Friday evening
from the mine, and stated yesterday that
the disclosures were truly gratifying and
astonishing In driving the cross-cut on
the 500-foot level, Mr.. Weir states for
the last twenty feet or so none OF those
who nre connected with tho Ohio COM
papy would have been surprised to find
the wall.
On the contrary, however, this cross
out hns been extended for q distance OF
100 feet, all of which Is In orc that will
pay we'll to work. and the last ten feet
disclose values that eclipse any other
portion OF the vein now explored. Mr..
Weir spent some time IN looking over the
ground for the purpose Of selecting a
sito for tho new shaft, a decision that
will not bo made. however, until the
company is assured that all things arc
ripe
Mr. Weir was especially plensed with
the manner IN which the mill is being
operated. and he paid quite a tribute to
the efficiency OF Superintendent Ziegler.
whose reputation ns MILL man is we'll
established, Mr.. Weir would give no
figures to the saving now being made
by the Ohio mill, but stated the saving
was better than so per cent. He stated
further that he never saw q cleaner lot
OF concentrating tailings anywhere.

CARS ARE SCARCE.
Bingham Operators Are Having Difh.
Guilty In Securing Facilities.

Next to the difficulty experienced by
the operators of Bingham properties In
securing sufficient skilled labor is that
of procuring enough cars to take care OF
the business now being done In that
camp. AT no time in the history of the
camp has there been such a need for
cars and motive power. and tho present
stringency is greatly complained Of.
1t is said that in San Francisco are
countless numbers OF cars loaded with
timber and building material generally
that can not be moved owing to tho
scarcity of labor. When this large num-
Ser Of cars is relieved II is thought the
railroad companies will be better able to
look after the growing Bingham business.

CORAM TALKS OF
BINGHAM PLANS
Boston Capitalist Says That the
Company Will Alter
the Smelter.
1T IS CONSIDERED
THAT HALF is TOLD
Bingham to Become Great Fac
tor in the Western Smelt-
ing Field.

The fret authentic echo Of the recent
gathering of tho Bingham Consolidated
company officials In this city 10 heard
from Boston, where j. A. Coram Ia An
interview stated some matters OF In
terest connected with the Bingham COM
pany. Mr.. Coram stated that tho com
pany haa planned to spend $4,000 In
smelter alterations, and that the Bing-
ham was preparing TO enter the lead
business upon an extensive scale as we'll
as copper smelling.
Mr. Coram said In addition that the
Bingham Consolidated hereafter Will be
an aggressive factor in the lead and cop
per smelling field, and also in tho min
ing field. This information is merely in
line with what has been reiterated time
and time again, only without official
sanction. ever since the gathering In
this city of tho Bingham heavyweights.
1t is considered. however, that Mr.. Cor
am told only a portion of what has been
planned.
1t is not likely that such men as Heinze,
Coram. White and numerous others Of
prominence In the smelling. mining and
financial field would assemble in Salt
Lake during the vacation season to spend
q couple OF weeks planning an cxpendi-
ture Of $500 900. 1t is considered certain
that this is only one item. and perhaps
the smallest, in the campaign that un-
doubtedly was mapped out during the
visit here
To become an aggressive factor In the
lead and smelling field involves great
expenditure OF money and the acquisition
OF additional properties in all probabil
ity, The course followed by the United
States Smelling, Refining and Mining
company at the first of the present year
illustrated what is necessary along such
lines 10 attain the end desired. At any
rate ~ all foretells a greater activity
and era of prosperity for Utah, and that
is what is mostly desired.

as there are vast tonnagcs awaiting

rate is necessary before these can be

heretofore thrown to one side by mine

In Debt Last Year.
This time last year the Columbus Con-
Bolidated company was In debt TO the
extent OF fully $50 1000, and the mine
was little more than al uncertainty.
Today. free from all incumbrances and
with growing surplus IN the treasury,
the Columbus occupies a place IN the
mines Of tho State that is most crafty
Ing to Its official family and friends.
There are few better equipped proper
ties IN the West the mine being lighted
by electricity throughout and with a
complete telephone system TO all the
workings. No comforts for the en-
ployees have been overlooked. and all
the appliances necessary for quick and
efficient work are q part OF the equip
ment.
Too much cannot be said about the
faithfulness and wisdom displayed by
Mr.. Jacobson in bringing the property
most prominent mines. When he took
charge OF the Columbus Consolidated
five years ago. there were about 200 feet
of tunnelng already done. Today there
are over three miles OF underground
workings, and enough ore is blocked out
in the mine TO allow the company to run
for several years without doing another
foot of development work,
