James j. Stewart Alleged to Be
Short in Accounts With

STEWART DENIES HIS GUILT
Says That If Any Shortage is Found

Shortage Of About $500.

James J. Stewart. postmaster at
Quarry. is charged with embezzlement
by the government, it being alleged
that he is short in his accounts with
the postoffice department. The infor-
nation was filed by postoffice inspect
ors. who allege that Stewart is short
about $500. After his arrest Stewart
was taken to Des Moines and ar
raigned before Commissioner Mac
Arthur, who bound him over to the
federal grand jury. Stewart was re-
leased on bonds, pending a further in
vesttgation OF his case.
The specific charge against the Quar-
ry postmaster Is that he took money
from a large number of Italians en-
ployed in the LeGrand company's
quarries. who purchased money orders
and sent them to their native homes.
1t Is claimed that the accounting on
these money orders was not properly

COMPANY EXPLAINS RATES.
MarshaIltown l., P. & Ry. Co. Fla.
Word on Ordinance.

Editor T1meS-RepuDMcan.
We beg permission to respectfully
submit to our consumers and your
readers a few words in explanation Of
our rates and the rates provided in the
ordinance submitted to the committee
of the city council, to whom the mat
ter of new rates was referred.
The present rates being charged are
not now higher than the average price
in cities of about the same size in Iowa.
In some places the rates. both maxi
mum and net are higher than in Mar
shalltown, but lin some places they are
less, but only in places having larger
population than Marshalltown and a
much larger output of gas which, on
account Of the much larger output, can
be manufactured for less cost per
thousand cubic feet. In none of those
larger cities having such lower rate
than now prevails in Marshalltown,
was the rate ever any lower when the
output was no more than it now is in
Marshalltown
In some of these places the company
Is in receipt of an income amounting to
several thousands Of dollars annually,
from the city, for gas supplied to lamp
posts in the resident districts and at
street intersections not sufficiently
Nghted with electric lights.
Referring to the proposed reduction
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1908-11-13

in rates, submitted by the company.
while they may seem small, DIT Will
amount to a reduction of about $4,000
for the year 1909, or about $4,000 per
year for the next two years; of about
$500 per year for the next two years,
and after five years to about $lO,Oo0
per annum, based OH the present bus
mess, and the same rates of reduction
viii apply on all new and additional
business from the rates now prevail
ing. while the company hopes and ex-
poets the new business to enable them
to grant such reductions from time to
time as will amount to the above, 1t
can only adjust itself gradually to the
lower rates as has been done in other
larger cities. notably Des Moines,
where the company was over five years
in getting down to dollar gas. in scent
steps, and where the rate now is $1.l0
with 10 cents discount for prompt pay
ment.
In the matter of electric light rates,
again this company is without any in
come from city lighting. while the
light company in most other cities is
enjoying q large income from this
source. Our rates are as low or below
the average in other similar cities In
Iowa, and as low as they can be made

with the approach of Thanksgiving
The housewives mind is turning to the
annual dinner for that day. and as the
season Is changing she also thinks OF
the family dinners for Sundays whea
ordinarily whatever delicacies the
market affords are placed upon the
family board.
Naturally her first thought IFS for the
meat, the basis Of every meal. There
are going to be plenty Of turkeys In
the market when Thanksgiving draws
nearer, but not many of them have
so far been offered to the retailers.
Some few have been on the market,
hit the. very large percentage of the
bulk Of the supply is still in the hands
of the producer. This situation, which
is an exact duplicate of what existed
last season at this time, makes specu-
la..ion on the price Of turkeys IN the
near future an uncertainty. Wholesal-
ers and commission men Of Chicago
are quoting dry picked turkeys at from
1e to II cents, and It IS probable that
the retail price here will not be under
q, cents. and it may be as high as a.
quarter Those who own the turkeys
are seeking the best market and the
best price. which may have the re-
suit Of either boosting the price or OF
filing the market and causing a slump
during the few days just preceding
Thanksgiving. The indications are that
the price will be at least, reasonably
high. compared with other years.
Chickens Arc Cheap.
But in chickens, ducks. and geese
the housewife has the alternative OF
choosing cheaper meat. Dressed
springs of prime grade are bringing
is cents while hens are selling Tor
shilling. There are few ducks or
reese on the market at the present
time, but towards Thanksgiving there
will be plenty to be had at from l2la
cents for geese to is cents for prime,
fat, young ducks.
Other Things Good to Eat.
The Michigan celery, and 1t is said
to be the finest In years, is now on
the market. It is bringing about $3.50
a case The home grown is not quite
SO expensive. All of the standard va
rieties Of apples are on the market
at prices of from $3.50 a barrel up
ward, depending upon quality and
kind. The winter crop has not been of
hetfsf quality IN rrar:yy' esee-as
winter advances there promises to be
a. steady increase in the price.
Some of the varieties of native
grown grapes have disappeared from
the market, altho others can be had
for weeks to come. The Imported fruit,
such as Tokay and Malagas are to be
had, and especially the latter, at about
the usual prices.
Florida grapefruit is on the mar
ket, at a price ranging from 5 to 10
cents EACH. according to size and quail
,ity. The quality is said to be most
excellent this fall. It is a little too
early yet for really good pineapples,
tho a few are being received.

Case Of Rev.. D. w. Thompson, For-
merIy Of LeGrand, Next Week.
The case of Rev. D. w. Thompson,
who was at one time preacher of Lee
Grand, but who later has been preach
ing at Truro, Madison county, is to be
tried in the federal court in Des
Moines next week on the charge OF US
ing the mails to carry on a fraudulent
land business. Rev. D. w. Thompson
was indicted several mnn4hs ago, ans
a large number Of LeGrand people
will be subpoenaed as witnesses for
the trial.
Another case OF interest to Marshall
county that may come up before the
federal court next week is the action
against Jacob Bolei, of Rhodes, Bolei
is charged with threatening to circu-
late stories rejecting on the character
of w. F. Stoufer, cashier of the Farm
ers' Savings bank, of Rhodes. There
is however, a prospect that this case
will not come to trial. Bolei was in
dicted by a local grand jury about
a year ago, for the same charge. The
case was later dismissed on account
Of q lack of evidence.

RICH pLACERS
AT RAWHIDE
Placer Gold Mining Company Will Make
Fortune from Its HOIdiRgS---PIdCer

will run better than 35 cents.
Interested in the property with
Mr.. Davis are William Harper,
George Wingfield, R. L. Hubbard of
Goldfield, and another man who is
about to take an interest is l.. v.
May, prominent New York broker
and chief owner of the Great Mogul
mine in the old Ray district, north of
Tonopah. Also in the project is M.
Showing, superintendent of the Com
bination mill, and all are practical
mining men who are showing their
faith in the property by putting in
their own money.
A report by c. L. Dingowty, min
ing engineer of Reno, contains the
following:
My tests from five shafts upon
your property at various points gave
values from So to $40 per cubic yard.
found these values extending to-
three feet above bedrock, with nat
urally the heaviest values on bed
rock. The bed rock, as rule, is
quite smooth and of porphyritic for
nation. The placer deposits consist
of small shale and gravel, slightly
cemented together by lime and clay.
The ground stands we'll from surface
to bedrock, either by round or square
shafts, and can easily be worked by
pick and shovel.
From my examination of this
proposition the gold values from this
placer deposit could be extracted at
nominal cost with handsome profits
per cubic yard, from three feet of the
deposit above bedrock. At present I
can see no other method to operate
this ground successfully other than
drift mining, which is well known to
the mining world. The material to
he lifted to the surface from near
bedrock could be worked either by
dry concentrators or by series of
sluices with water brought from the
lake.
Since Mr.. Dingwoty's report was
issued a lot of prosecuting has been
done, four other shafts have been
sunk and the property proved up in
far better shape. The report was
made in April when no work had
been done except to sink few shafts.
1t now has far better showing and
it's chief recommendation lies in the
fact that it has the values in sight,
making it unnecessary to drift or
search for any ore shoot. The pres
ent showing on the territory gives
1 the best assurance that the owners
are destined to realize big fortune
from their enterprise. -Rustler.

That the future greatness of Raw
hide and the revenue to be derived
from its minerals is by no means con-
fined to the rich quartz lodges of the
district is evidenced by the results of
experiments made by mining men in
the placers near the town.
Jack Davis while here few days
ago secured in the course of an hour
a phial of coarse gold taken from the
black sands which are found in the
placers and declares that fortunes
are to be made by treating these
sands.
A vast area of placer ground is
now being developed by the Rawhide
Consolidated Placer Gold Mining
company, which was promoted by
Jack Davis and company, and they
now have down nine shafts with
drifts and crOsscuts which have been
run across the entire channel and
show the presence of material which
runs 81 to the yard, the deposit be-
ing four feet thick, eighty feet in
width and is opened for length on
the ground of 1900 feet.
Each yard of this earth, according
to the tests, carries sixty hounds of
black sands which has a value of be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 to the ton.
1t is proposed to raise sufficient
money to construct pipe line for the
purpose of bringing in water to treat
the sands and it is said that when the
! company is enabled to begin this
work the line can be completed with
in period of sixty days. A pump
ing plant will be established at a
| point about four miles from the
placers and it will be necessary to
raise the water from 400 to 500 feet
remarkable circumstance in con-
nection with the prospecting of this
i ground is the fact that while two men
have been at work sinking shafts the
surface man has, since last March
been able to pan sufficient gold from
the surface dirt to pay his wages dur.
ing the intervals of hosting the
buckets. Two men are now employ
ed on the ground and four additional
shafts have lately been sunk, which
further shows the great value of the
territory under development. Or
the trip with Mr.. Davis was William
Harper of Las Vegas, New Mexico
formerly of Goldfield, who, during
his examination took six paintings
picking his own dirt, which ran from
10 cents to 35 cents to the pan. H,

JANUARY
Jones IS
DIVORCED

GOLDFIELD, Oct. 12.-Mrs. Luz
cile Jones arrived in Goldfield this
afternoon from Los Angeles and an
hour later was granted divorce
from her husband, January Jones,
we'll known in mining and other cir
cles here and elsewhere. The hear
ing leading to the separation was
conducted before Judge Langan, the
decree being issued upon a showing
made that Jones had for some time
past failed to contribute to the sup
port of his wife, the while taking
the daughter of the vine to spouse
Mrs. Jones testified that the min
ing man has been on almost con-
tinuous spree for the past fifteen
months and even when, during lapses
of sober thought, he has made mon
ey, he has failed entirely to turn any
of such over to her, or even to pay
back sums which she says she gave
him.
The couple were married in San
Rafael, California, November 6,
1905, a time when Jones was rated as
one of the most successful men in
Goldfield There is no issue of the
marriage, Mrs. Jones having child,
however, by a former husband.
Rufus Thayer appeared as attor-
ney for the plaintiff this afternoon.
