More Rumors of Railroad

The Denver & Intermountain rail-
road, operating between Denver,
Lakewo"d and Golden, was sold this
week t. eastern capitalists who will
convert the road into an electric
line, it Is said. Articles of incorpor-
alton We're filed with the secretary of
state last Tuesday for the Intermoun-
tain Railway company with capital
stock OF 81 900. 900. The incorporators
are: {, II. Chase, T. j. Miner, Cald-
well leaman, Frank Loveland and
Thomas 3. Doran, all of Denver.
What connection the sale of the
road may have, with reference to the
continuaton of the line up Clear Creek
canon and over the divide through the
Vidler tunnel. is merely conjecture at
this tine Ii is hoped that the pur-
chaser represent fnanciers identified
with the proposed Wider railroad, and
that tn line will be continued from
Golden 10 Lookout mountain and on
toward the continental divide as pro-
jected by the Vidler people.

Stock.Bia Five Case

Among the cases to be tried in the
district court this term in Golden will
be a rehearing of the notable bath
house case, which attracted consider
able attention several years ago. The
action was brought by Mrs. Sarah A.
Stock, formerly proprietor of the
Cliff house in this city, against VIM.
P. Daniels and the purchasing depart
ment of the Big Five, to recover
$25, 900 damages for injuries she
claimed to have received while bathing
in one of the defendant company's bath
tubs November %, 1903.
The complaint alleges the cutting
of plaintiffs flesh by jagged piece
Of copper in the bath tub, and AYERS
that blood poisoning set in, and that
she was confined to her bed absolutely
for six weeks and hardly able to get
around the house for about four
months. Her health, she alleged, had
been ruined to such an extent that she
had become burden to herself and
friends, and that she would remain so
for the rest of her life.
The case was first tried in Golden in
the spring Of 1905 and lasted nine
days. The legal fight was a bitter
one, much expert medical testimony
being introduced by both sides, and the
injured limb was exhibited to The jury.
After several hours deliberation the
jury awarded Mrs. Stock $1,000
damages and costs. A new trial was
granted the defense on the ground that
the verdict was excessive.

1t is reported that the American
Smelting and Refining company has
under consideration new rule in re-
gard % settlements for high grade
ore shipments, by which payment for
the contents will be deferred for
from four to six weeks. This means
that the smelters will have been able
il that time to have marketed their
bullion, realizing on the proceeds of
its sale, before they in turn settle
with the producer Heretofore the
smelters have settled for ore i'm
mrdlately after a compari-
son of assays has determined its value,
bearing all costs and carrying the pro-
duct until the bullion has been convert
ed INTO cash. If this rule is adopted
by the smeter people, the ore produc-
er will be obliged to wait from a
month to six weeks or more for the
money for his ore.
ii is understood that the rule, if
adopted, will only apply to the higher
grades of ore, and it will not mater
iaIly effect local producers The Ne

will be the greatest sufferers if the
system is adopted. The smelter con
