GERMAN GLOBE WINS
BIG BALLOON RACE.
ALL NINE CONTESTANTS
HAZE NOW LANDED.
From Unofficial Measurements the
Pommern TraOeIIed Longest
Distance.

G. louis Oct 23.-The second International
balloon cup competition, which started from ST.
louis on Monday, ended to-day with the Ger
man balloon Pommern winning first prize for the
longest flight. The finish of the race was so
close. however. that the French contestant
I.Isle de France. which descended at 1:10
o'clock this afternoon at Hubertsville n. J., a
few miles from the Atlantic Coast, may possibly
he declared winner after official measurements
ore completed. The Pommern landed ar . o'clock
this forenoon half mile from Asbury Park.
" J.. apparently few miles further from ST.
Louis than Hubertsvilie.
another German balloon. the Dusseldorf,
stands third in the race. American entries fin
ished fourth, fifth and eighth. while a third
German team finished sixth and another French
team seventh. The one English balloon entered
the Lotus-feu far short Of the others The
Pomuern was piIoted by Oscar Erbsloeh. aided
by H H Clayton. while Alfred Leblanc and Ed
ward v. Mix sailed LIse de France.
The unofficial estimated air line flight of the
PomYnern is $50 miles and that OF L'Isle de
France SIS miles. The Dusseldorf, third, landed
near Dover, Del. It is estimated TO have COW
cred 30 miles The official measurements will
be computed by the Geological Survey of the
United States government at Washington.
Only the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean
stopped the flight OF the Pommern. The balloon
could have remained in the air many hours
longer. and probably would have added several
hundred miles to its record but for the expanse
Of water ahead
While losing the distance record and the cup,
the French team sailing LIsle de France gained
the worlds record for duration Of flight, remain
ing in the air IL hours minus 1 minute. The
previous record was IL hours minutes, held
by Count de la Vaulx. of France.
The previous record Of the international race,
set by the balloon United States in the flight
from Paris last year, was 402 miles. This was
more than doubled by the Pommern and LIsle
de France In fact, only one of the nine con-
testants in this years race failed to exceed the
1906 record.
Germany having gained possession of the sill
yer trophy presented by James Gordon Bennett,
the race next year will be in the home of the
German Aero Club. Final possession Of the
trophy rests with the club which wins it three
times.

Trust Company of this city.
The papers filed in court show that the COM
pany has assets exceeding $4.OO0,OOO. and liza

Attorneys for the trust company said to-
night: There seems to be doubt of the
solvency of the company and Of its ability to
nay depositors in full This action was pre-
cipitated by the appointment to-day of receiv-
ers for the various Westinghouse interests, and
was decided upon by the board of directors as
the best method of preserving the interests of
depositors and stockholders
with the small amount due depositors in
comparison with its assets, it is believed that

MINING NOTES FROM
ELY AND VICINITY

Ely. New June 21-Sam COcrOft has
brought in some excellent samples Of sill
Yer and copper ore from the mining dis
trict located about six miles from War
rem. The rock will go 100 ounces in silver.
Mr.. Cocroft has fourteen claims. and the
ledge is showing up in fine shape. The
locality has not been prospected very
ming to locate in that vicinity. Mr.. Co
croft will return this week to complete
his development work
1t is reported that the power line from
the smelter to the Nevada Consolidated
mines will be finished by fall. The main
reason assigned for this is that the COM
pany expects to have the hosting machin-
underground haulage system ready by Dc
tOber or November. As it will necessitate
the Use of electric power 10 operate the
machinery the indications are that the
power line will be completed by that time
The concrete is being laid at the Star
Pointer for the big ore bins and for the
large steel headframe. Most of the ma
terial for the headframe is on the ground
The ore at the Ruth has been blocked
out and Two or three raises into the ore
body are being made. The property is
being prepared for the mining of the ore
and two of the main drifts will be COM
plete in a month. These drifts are being
put in to facilitate the mining of the ore
body. II is the intention to always keeL
ore cars underground running in one di-
rectiOn, thereby making a regular loop.
The 15-horse-power gasoline engine al
the Robinson IS ready for work and the
shaft is down 100 feet.
Some excellent ore has been placed in
the dumps Of the Ely-Witch, and the work
of sinking is being carried on quite sue
ceSsfully.

that he was getting ready to place the

Right now there is more than 1000 tons
of concentrates in the mill bins awaiting

IRON BLOSSOM MINE
is A BIG PROPOSITION

From all that can be learned the Iron
Blossom Mining company of Tintic is not
depending at all upon the finding of the
Colorado company's fissure in its ground
to make its mine. The Iron Blossom, il
is said. owns the ground formerly en-
braced in the old dragon Iron mine. the
Iron Blossom and quite a lot of other
ground which reaches up to the south
erly limits of the Crown Point territory.
This property has been supplying the
smelters with iron ore for fluxing pur-
poses for many years and is still doing
at a comfortable profit.
The plan now is. according to camp adj
vices. to sink down below the iron and de-
velop what it is believed will prove an
immense deposit of cOpper-goid ore. This
work has already been started and the
claim is made that it is simply matter OF
time till the property is made one of the
big money makers of the camp.

SIX MONTHS DIVIDENDS.


For the first six months of this year
nineteen Utah mining companies, as in
dicated, have paid dividends aggregating
$40oe, aSe. This does not include dividends
posted this month for payment in July
This is only s1.15S,9S5 short Of the total
payments in 1906. 1t is safe to say that
the years disbursements will cut close
to the SO 10000 mark, as the Newhouse
mines and other companies VIII soon en-
ter the lists OF big money makers. Some
other companies have paid dividends dur
ing the six months. including the Bing-
ham-New Haven and Scranton, but the
figures are not available, as they have
not been announced here. The May Day
company, Uncle Sam and Lower Nam
moth companies will ali make good rec
ords for the remaining half of the year,
while the Newhouse company viii not
contribute less than 100000 The Silver
King, as the Silver King Coalition Mines
company, will also return to the fold be-
fore the year is over, so it is not eXdg-
gerating, at all, 20 claim 100000 for the

purposes. Some doubt has also been
raised as to the condition OF the Old
foundation, men working about II hav-
ing declared that the mortar work
originally used In building the walls
and foundation of the old high school
building was of poor grade.
No Building Before Winter.
1t is generally feared among board
members that the new building can
not be completed before next winter
is well advanced. The board may
aagin be confronted with the problem
of providing temporary quarters for
the city schools for a period of several
months.
Just before the board adjourned last
evening a set of regulations were
adopted fixing the necessary qualifica-
tons to be held by teachers in the
city schools and in the high schools.
The publication of these rules was
withheld for the present. 1t was stat
ed, however, that they were prepared
by the examining committee and we're
based on the requirements Of a recent
legislative enactment, also that the
rules had already been virtually in eff
feet in Norfolk.
