SHAKE-UP SURE
IN WEST QUINCY
Present Officials to Be De-
posed and New Manage
ment Provided Oct. /.

A special meeting of the West Quincy
Mining company is going to be held on
the LIST day of October and. judging from
the tone of the call for the gathering,
there will be general shaking up in the
official family and other business of i'm
portance transacted. The notice of the
meeting, which is signed by E. ". Van
Norman, w. III. Dodge. w. c. Alexander
and III. Z. Cav. as directors. says the
meeting has been called for the purpose
of electing a new board of directors and
other officers and removing the present
incumbents; for the purpose of consider
ing ways and means of acquiring the out
pany's mining claims and for the pur-
pose of making arrangements for acquir
ing said interests, If a feasible plan can
be devised for that purpose
According to an insider. the chief mo-
tive in holding the meeting is to depose
the present president of the company,
g. d. b. Turner. who. 1t is alleged. is so
wrapped up in other mining propositions.
particularly in Colorado. that he no longer
finds time to look after the affairs of the
West Quincy company. 1t was under
stood few months ago that a PROPOSE
ton to sell the property to one of the big
been under consideration but II was then
impossible to reach an understanding.
While no intimation of what may hap
pen In the future has been disclosed by
anybody that might have authority to
talk, an impression is gaining ground
that, If Turner is shelved, ii will be pos
sible to clean up titles and round out
the possessions of the company in a man
ner that would aid materially in the sale
of the ground in case the shareholders
saw fit to ratify a deal. At any rate,
there is evident reason for the belief that
the company is going to stir things up,
and eventually either sell out or go to
work. the stockholders. are not salts
fled with the do-nothing policy that has
prevailed for a year or more.

SIOUX CON. is MINING
RICHER ORE THAN AT FIRST

Some splendid ore is being sent out
from the Sioux Consolidated mine these
days, says the Eureka Reporter. The
output. for the present week will be three
or four carloads, and some of this ore
is exceptionally rich in silver and lead
I he third carload, which was being load
ed at the time the Reporter was published
last week, carried II ounces silver and
a little better than 80 per cent lead, and
the two carloads which followed this lot
TO the smelter will, ii is understood. car
w even higher values in silver. Yester-
day a general assay taken from the best
face of ore which is now exposed in the
mine showed LIS ounces in silver and
about 80 per cent lead.
The Sioux ore body, like that OF the
Colorado is richest near the top. The
Sioux management is working the ore
from below. and when the first carload
went to the smelter it carried but So
ounces i'm silver, but as the work pro-
crossed the ore kept getting richer and
richer. By the time the raise reaches
the top of the ore some sensational silver
values are expected.

IRON COUNTY PRosPERINe.

The well known Holt property in
Iron county, which has been taken over

been encountered showing values from
s25 to over $500 per ton. The vein out
crops for over 5000 feet. and is one OF
the strongest assures in the state.
A block of stock is being placed on
the market at a reduced price i'm order
to enable the company to install ma
chinery at once and begin regular ship
ments of ore. AS very little stock has
been issued, a great boom is expected
as soon as shipments are begun.

pany, is now at Hotel Cullen making

THREE DEAD, 20 HURT
 IN ALABAMA WRECK

Marion. representing the thirteenth congressional district. came to town to- day bringing with him a number of his constituents whom he introduced to the candidate. The call was simply one of respect.
 Two speaking assignments have been arranged for tomorrow, when the can- didate will address delegation from Greenfield. Indiana. and In fhe evening ciergymen from the African Methodist Church in Allen Temple.
 Willis L. Moore. Chief of the Cnited States weather bureau. and poli;icial advisor of Judge Taft arrived from Washington today for the purpose of urging Judge Taft to make frequent speeches to. labor organizations.
 Before returning east MT. Moore. af- ter stating that his sympathies were with organized labor. as one having been an active member of a laber or ganization has this to say respecting Samuel Gonipers. president of the Fed eration of Labor:
 T have approved of the decision reached some months ago by the re- ports of the constituent bodies of the American Federation of Labor to stand by their friends and to punish their enemies. but. In company with many other friends of labor l resent the narrow partisan attitude of Mir. Com pers and part of the council of the Federation of Labor in their efforts to impose upon republican members of organized labor. as well as their demo- critls comrades by falsely charging Mir. Taft with being the father of injunc- tions and an enemy of labor.
 Instead of Gompers attempting to decide who are enemies and who are friends. why does he not give the facts with regard to the records of the two leading candidates for the presidency and then rely upon the high intelli- gence and loyalty of the individual members to decide each for himself" i"

Columbia, S. C.. Sept, 14-Eleven negroes arrested at Ninety Six, S. C., are in jail at Greenwood today on the charge. of the trouble growing out of the race friction.
 An intercepted letter revealed the fact that a band of negroes had been planning secretly at Ninety Six to shoot up the town on Sunday night, September 5. but that the floods which caused the annullment of all freight trains had delayed the delivery of rifles to the negroes
 Sheriff McGilian said that the evil dence against the negroes is conclu- sIve. There has been much friction be- tween the races since the general cleo tion race riot near Ninety Six ten years ago, when many negroes were killed.
 Two years ago 1t was rumored that negroes were obtaining guns to use in an attack on the white citizens, but the merchant who sold the guns fur nished the names of those who bought them and all the guns were collected.
 Four weeks ago Joseph Tolbert. white Republican was run out of Nine- ty Six at local election and 1t is said that In the intercepted letter the negroes mentioned as marked men, four of those most active against Tol- bert
