OLD SALT lAKER
LIKES CONTACT CAMP

With the fame of the Contact district
spreading, and new ore bodies being open
ed every day, number of Ely peO-
pie, who have located mining property
there, are destined to reap a substantial
reward. p. J. Donovan. who owns the
Last Chance group of four claims at Con-
tact. came in from that district last
evening. and states that Contact will GER
tainly cut some figure in the copper world
within a few years, says the Ely Mining
Expositor.
Associated with Mr.. Donovan are Viii
liam Snyder and Tom Maher of Ely.
The gentlemen have small force of men
at work on their properties. Some fine
copper ore has been opened up, although
they have only finished their location
work.
August Schlaak. Frank I.auer. George
Haas and William Miller are the other
Elyites who have gotten in on the ground
floor at Contact. Their properties adj
join the Last Chance group, and DonO-
van brought down some specimens from
that property at a depth of eight feet
which will assay 50 per cent copper, and
carries sulphides. The Ely people have
been developing their ground systemat-
ically. and have kept four men at work
for the last four months. Schlaak who
is now employed by the Peoples Meat

Opment work. They simply locate claims
and after finishing location work, they

BLOOD SPILLED IN MuTINY
sAPPERs FOUGHT LOYAL TROOPS
AT KEW.
Seventy Killed or Wounded In Mid.
night Engagement-RebeIs to Be
Court-Martialed.

st. Petersburg, June 2O.-Details
OF the mutiny of sappers at Kiev show
that 1t was suppressed only after a
bloody engagement at midnight, June
II. between the mutineers and loyal
troops, in which about 70 men were
killed or wounded.
Kiev is one of the cities where rev.
dictionary ideas have made the great
est inroads upon the army, and the
revolutionary military organization is
very powerful, counting among it's
members dozens of officers The mu.
tiny was planned to coincide with a
general political strike as a reply to
the dissolution of parliament, involv-
ing the railroads, telegraphs and
mails. In several of the southern
provinces arrangements for the strike
had been making for months under
the leadership of an experienced or
ganizer, NJ. Loskotj, who was a men,
Der of the first parliament. The de-
cision of the revolutionary staff at
St. Petersburg to refrain from demon.
strations was disobeyed by the hot
headed sappers. At midnight of
June II, 500 men at a given signal
left their beds, disarmed the sentries,
hurriedly dressed, obtained posses
sion of their rifles, broke into armory,
secured some loaded cartridges, and
then marched to the camp square
and fired volley in the air. The Of
ficer on duty, Capt. Akuloff, ran out
and addressed the mutineers, advis-
ing them to dispense. He then called
out another battalion, drew the men
up and led a charge on the mutineers,
ordering them to surrender. Upon
their refusal to do so Capt Akuloff
ordered the troops to fire, and fell
dead himself at the first volley.
The fighting continued for several
minutes. Half dozen others were
killed and about 60 were wounded.
Finally the mutineers, with no officers,
no leaders, and no plans, wavered
and fled. Two hundred and fifty
were captured, but 1913 eluded pursuit
and hid in the city.
The mutiny at Kiev was arranged
by Shefchenko, revolutionist of good
family, who entered the army as a
volunteer for the purpose of under
mining discipline and won over many
of his comrades, but when he raised
the standard of revolt they were
frightened, and the little band of ring
leaders were overpowered. Three
bombs were found in Shefchenko's
tent. All the mutineers will be tried
by court-martial.

SEVEN KILLED IN A MINE
TWO EXPLOSIONS OF GAS IN
SHAFT AT PRlCEBURG, PA.
Victims Are Horribly Disfleured-
Wild Excitement Prevails Among
Families of the Miners.

Scranton, Pa, June 20-Seven men
were killed outright and two others
seriously injured in two explosions of
mine gas in the Johnson No. l mine
at Priceburg.
The first explosion, which occurred
about three o'clock, was caused by the
carelessness of door tender who, by
leaving the door open, allowed gas to
accumulate in the workings. One man
was injured as result of this. The
second explosion, which resulted in
the death of seven men and the injury
of another, occurred about five o'clock
and resulted from the ignition Of the
deadly fire damp which accumulated
after the first explosion.
A runner who was near the foot Of
the shaft when the second explosion
occurred gave the alarm and rescue
party hurried to the scene of the ex-
plosion.
News of the explosion spread rapid
~ through the village of Priceburg, a
mining hamlet lust north of Scranton,
and hundreds Of wives, children and
other relatives Of those who are EN-.
ployed in the mine hurried to the
breaker. So badly disfigured were
the remains of those who were killed
that identification at the time was i'm
possible and the widest excitement
prevailed. Harsh measures had to be
pursued by the mine officials to keep
the crowds back. and hundreds fol-
lowed the ambulances to undertaking
establishments. 1t was with the great
est difficulty that any authentic news
of the affair could be learned, because
of the excitement that prevailed.
About 1,500 men work in the mine,
but as no account was kept of those
who had come ont before the explosion
occurred it is impossible to determine,
until the rescning party returns, if the
present death list is complete.

CONTEST OF DETECTIVES.
Every Move. on Part of States At.
torney in Haywood Trial Watched.

Boise, Idaho, June 20.-Secrecy is
the watchword of the men who are
conducting the prosecution of w. D.
Haywood, charged by the state of
Idaho with comprising the death by
assassination of a former chief execu-
tive, and mystery surrounds every
move made by counsel retained by
the Western Federation Of Miners to
defend their secretary.
The case has reached the stage
where every move on the part of the
states attorney is closely watched
and reported on by scores of sleuths
employed by the defense, in order that
counteracting evidence may be Sc.
cured from the points in the four
or five western states where the al
legged conspiracy, eliminating, ac-
cording to the allegations of the pros
ecutors, in half a hundred murders,
played it's part and from which the
state is producing witnesses.
While the state has its day in
court, another score of detectives
watches the employees of the defense
in the hope of uncovering some new
move by which counsel for Haywood
hope to clear their client from the
charge of murder.
The entire morning session We'd

Refuses to Discuss Story He Will Not
Run for President.

Leavenworth, Kan. June 20.-When
William II. Taft. secretary of war, ar
rived here Wednesday morning his
attention was called by correspond
ent to a story printed in the Kansas
City papers. quoting the Washington
Times to the effect that the secretary
may retire from the presidential race,
it being intimatcd that he is not phys
ically equipped for a long presiden-
tal campaign, and citing his illness
at st. Paul as giving color to the ru-
NOR. The rumor bore this cap,
ton:
Taft not to rum"
Secretary Taft declined to discuss
the matter and dismissed the question
by saying, laughingly:
"You Just let that question mark
stand"
The secretary looked to be in per
feet health and said he never felt bet
ter in his life.
Secretary Taft passed the greater
part of the day at the fort. depart.
ing late in the afternoon for Ottawa,

Department of Commerce and Labor
to Continue Investigation Into the
cause-Gen. Uhler Disagrees With
Verdict of Naval Body.

Washington, June 20.-Admiral
Emory, commanding the fourth divi~
sion Atlantic fleet, who is at present
the ranking officer of the American
ships in Hampton roads, arrived in
Washington Wednesday on hasty
visit to the navy department. He
brought with him the report of the
naval board of investigation which
has been looking into the circum-
stances surrounding the loss of the
launch of the battleship Minnesota on
the night of June 10. The board found
that the launch had fowled a steel
hawser with which the tug Crisfeld
was towing barge carrying a num-
Der of loaded freight cars from Cape
attached to the officers of the Girls
field, who we're in ignorance of the dis
aster.
Inquiry to Be Continued.
The inquiry into the loss of the
Minnesota's launch, though closed as
far as the navy department is con-
cerned, will now be continued by the
department of commerce and labor
Gen. Uhler, supervising inspector gen.
eral of steam vessels, was at the navy
department Wednesday in consulta-
ton with Secretary Metcalf, and is
arranging to prosecute the inquiry
next Friday, following out the theory
that the accident was caused by the
launch striking a. heavy acetyline
buoy in the fairway, which seemed to
find support in the fact that the hull
of the boat was found within 200 yards
of this buoy. Gen. Uhler is quite posi-
tive that the injury to the launch
could not have been inflicted by a
hawser or towline of a tugboat The
hole in the launch is on the star
board side and was sufficiently large
almost Immediately to food the little
vessel.
II am convinced" said Gen. Uhler,
chat the injury was inflicted through
a collision of some Mnd-with barge,
some large vessel, or, perhaps, with a
buoy. 1t would have been impossible,
think, for such hole to be torn in
the launchs side by a tow line. Had
the launch come in contact with a
towline it's upper works would nave
been carried away. The vessel might
thus have been capsized and sunk, but
no dent would have been made in her
side. The launchs machinery was in
tact, showing that she had not broken
down. We expect to continue our
investigation into the accident and we
hope, eventually, to determine def
nitely the cause of the disaster"
