TINTIC FREIGHT RATES.
Committee Today Will Hold Conference
With Railroad O61cials

The same ancient controversy be-
tween the committee of the Tintic
Mine-OwDers association and the rep
resentatives of the railroads will be
taken up again this afternoon at the
Commercial club. This is the question
of freight rates on ores from the
mines of that camp TO the Salt Lake
smelters. Last year the matter was
taken up and the committee worked un.
til concession was granted by the
railroad representatives, but this con-
ccssion is not considered the right one
yet. So the meeting today is expected
to be productive of interesting results,
as all parties have had several months
10 think the situation over, and 10 try
out the concession made last fall.
The present rates on all ores of A
valuation of $15 or less IS S125 per
ton. On ores between SIS and S25, the
rate is $2.25, and on all ores of a
higher value, $3.50 per ton. This is on
gross valuation, and the old contro-
Versy is over changing this TO net val
uatlon. The Tlntic operators are in
hopes that their contention will be car
ried successfully, but in case they fail,
they have the satisfaction that relief is
not far distant owing to the erection of
the smelter at Tintic. by Provo and
Salt Lake capital, for the treatment of
the ores of the camp.

GoLDFIELD CONSOLIDATED.
New York Parties Are Not Dissatisfied
With Goldheld Property.

An interesting story circulated IN
Bush street yesterday relating TO Wing
field and Nixon and the Goldfeld Con-
solidatcd Mines was denied in toto by
y San Francisco man IN touch with
the heads of the Goldfeld Consolidated
Mines The story Was that Baruch,
who with Ryan of New York, were and
are holders of an option TO take in
| 100000 shares of treasury stock of
the Goldfeld Consolidated Mines at a
fixed time on the payment of 81 100000,
were dissatisfied because the price of
the company s shares had fallen in the
stock market below the price AT which
the option was taken, namely, $50 A
share, and were selling in San Fran
cisco iu the boards at $3.50, which was
Inc lowest price yesterday, and that
out of this some arrangement would
grow TO give BaTuch and Ryan a larger
influence in the management of the
company's affairs. The story found
some believers

man who Is III constant touch with

present interest Baruch has in tho COM
pany is the loan of 5 900 900 that was
raised to purchase the Combination
mines company out. If tho New York
people do not take up the option To
buy the 100000 shares at $500, 900
when the time comes, that will not
make any difference to Nixon and
Wingheld. The story that WiugGeld
and Nixon need money IS untrue.
Nixon, in fact, has Just brought about
the consolidation OF the Nixon National
bank ard the bank Of Nevada at Reno,
with capital OF 81 .000,0 900 and a surplus

the company was scheduled to receive
the settlements on four cars OF ore,
and there are at the samplers today six
additional cars awaiting treatment.

that the amount the company receives
from the smelters averages close TO

Beef on Ice Fourteen Years.

DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, Uncle Sans
wizard in chemistry, is about to re-
lease from captivity side of beef
that has been held in refrigerating
plant for more than fourteen years.
This is the story:
"Two years ago DR.. Wiley, chief
chemist Of the Department of Agri-
culture, inaugurated series of ex-
periments with view to determining
the nutritive value Of meat, game
poultry, eggs, butter, milk, cream
and other food products kept in cold
storage for indefinite periods. The re-
suits are about to be placed in the
form of report, which will be SUBJ
mitted to congress at its coming ses-
sion. These experiments demonstrate,
it is understood, that it is unsafe for
three months or longer.
N'When we started these expert
ments," said DIR. Wiley today, mo
tice of our intention was sent broad
cast to the managers of refrigerating
plants. One of them in Cleveland
informed the department that he had
a side of beef that had been In re-
frigeration for more than twelve
years. We asked the Cleveland man
to contribute it for use in our scheme
Of experimentation. He did. ("
DIR. Wiley was asked if this long
lived piece of beef would be fed to
the poison squad, whose members have
laid their stomachs on the altar OF
science, and who for several months
have been devouring all sorts of foods
selected because of the belief that
they are deleterious to heath.
"It will not, said DIR. Wiley en-
phatically.
"Why not?o he was asked.
"We will first try it on the dog, ="
he replied with smile.
Then DR.. Wiley explained. Meat
and other foods, if appearances are
to be accepted, may be kept in cold
storage for long periods without any
apparent degradation in their nutrl-
tive value of quality. But between
the time they are removed from a
refrigerator and the time they are
prepared to be fed ptomaine OF aka
loidal bodies may develop that would
make them fatal if taken into the
human stomach.
The meat, poultry, game and other
articles that have been in DIR. Wiley s
ice house for the last two years will
not, therefore, be fed to the poison
squad. Their condition will be tested
by the chief chemist and his assls-
tants in other ways. When put in the
refrigerator plant in the first instance
the tissues of the meat were carefully
measured, and since have been re-
measured at intervals.

Police As Labor Agents.

Terence V. Powderly, chief of the
Division of Information, Department
of Commerce and Labor, proposes TO
make every New York policeman an
employment agent. He said: I" l am
making an appeal to state and city
governments and free employment
bureaus to cooperate with my divi-
sion to furnish information as to
where are the men who want work,
their trades and avocations and also
what industries need labor and what
wages they will pay.
"I count especially on the lnfor-
nation which the policemen would
contribute as to the number OF men
in their precincts who are out OF
employment.

MONEY PROBLEM
FOR CONGRESS
MANY DEMANDS WILL BE MADE
ON REVENUES.
BILLION DOLLAR CONGRESS
No Longer Causes ANY Surprise and
the Day of Two Billion Dollar Con-
crosses is Fast Approaching.

Washington, D. C.-Looming up
bigger and more troublesome than ev-
er before, the problem of how to hold
down appropriations and keep them
commensurate with the revenues, and
at the same time satisfy the rapidly
growing demands for government ex-
penditures, is giving the Republican
leaders of House and Senate no end
of worry and apprehension. 1t Is
coming to be the most vexing ques-
ton with which congress has to deal.
1t has been serious enough with pre-
ceding congresses, but all indications
are that the Sixtieth congress, which
will begin its first and long session the
first Monday in December, will fird
itself sorely beset.
On the one hand there will be a
fiercer and more insistent clamor for
appropriations and authorizations
than ever assailed any other congress;
on the other hand, will be the fact
that appropriations have already
reached a vast aggregate, nearly the
limit of the country's revenues on
the basis of present laws, and more
revenue will have to be raised or a
deficit incurred if the outlay is to
KEEP on swelling. There is the further
important fact that presidential and
congressional election is approaching,
and it might prove embarrassing 10
the Republican party if the Democrats
keep the issue Of extravaganza to the
front.
The total appropriations made by
the second or last session of the Fif-
tE-ninth Congress amounted to $685.
948,679. including the permanent an
nual appropriations. This broke all
previous records. The first or long
session of the Fifty-,Gnth congress
provided for total appropriations Of
$879,589,185. This total broke all
records up to that time. In the ag-
gregate, the Fifty-ninth Congress ap-
propriated the enormous sum OF ST.
799,537 1864, over one and three quar-
ter billions. The Fifty-eighth Con-
gress was not far behind, with total
of 81, 1,601, 1857, ,010. Some men, a few
years ago, stood appalled, when they
heard the phrase ga billion dollar
Congress applied. That was in the
days of Tom Reed, Speaker of the
House. But the term has not mere
ly become outgrown and thing OF
history, but the day is. close at hand,
unless unexpected checks are put on
appropriations, when the term, " A
two-billion-dollar Congress will have
to be applied.
