SETTLEMENT WORK
fLAYED BY PRIEST
Father Curry Denounces Breed
ing Places for Socialism
in Large Cities
Rich Supporters of Movement
Scored as Pharisees at
Catholic Congress

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-The modern So
cial settlements of American cities
were denounced as breeding places of
socialism and anarchy by Rev. James
Curry of New York. in an address at
the Catholic missionary congress today.
Father Curry who labors among the
poor of the famous Cherry Hill dis
trict, flayed the rich supporters of the
social settlements of the crowded city
districts, declaring that many of them
go among the poor as "Pharisees and
seek to excuse their own shortcomings
by their interest in the sufferings Of
their brothers,.
The speaker inquired if any one had
heard of a social settlement among the
rich to teach them the sacredness of
marriage and that a champagne de-
bauch is as bad as one on mixed ale"
The speaker in closing, however, ad-
mitted that the social settlement,
purged of what he termed it's abuses
and under proper Catholic administra-
ton, would be a good department of
endeavor for the Catholic church.
Auxiliary Bishop Rhode of Chicago
urged the adoption of a comprehensive
colonization scheme to take Catholic
immigrants from the crowded cities to
farms in Catholic communities.
Missionary work in foreign lands oc-
cupied the attention of the congress to-
day. In the morning session, to which
Archbishop Messmer of Milwaukee was
called to preside. the duty of church
workers for the social uplift Of man
kind was considered.
Caring for Homeless Men" was the
subject set down for Rev. Timothy
Dempsey, founder of Father Demp-
sey's hotel" st. Louis. This was fol-
lowed by a discussion on Truth So
cieties and Their Influence" by Rev.
William F. McGinnis,. founder and pres
ident Of the International Catholic
Truth society, Brooklyn, N 7.

TAFT MAY CHOOSE
ENTIRELY NEW CABINET
Aspiring Politicians GIeefuI
Over Information From Al
legged Authentic Sources

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA good
many aspiring politicians are cheerful
over information which has just reached
them from what seems to be authentic
sources that President Elect Taft will
construct an entirely new cabinet. This
information has been gaining circula-
tion since the visit of Mr.. Taft to the
White House last Sunday.
President Roosevelt, it is said, has
advised his successor to make clean
sweep of the present cabinet, not be-
cause it is not an efncient body of men.
but because he feels that il several of
the present cabinet members should
be retained the public might gain the
impression he had fastened the men on
the new administration. One of Mr..
Taft's advisers said today that Mr. Root
is probably the only man in the pres
ent cabinet whose services the new
president would want

MISSING TACOMA
CASHIER A SUICIDE
Frank D. Pinkham, Living Under
Assumed Name ia Louisville,
Kills Himself
Left Northern City With Ac-
counts of Big Milling Conn
pany Nearly $4,000 Short
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALI

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 17.-Frank
D. Pinkham, former cashier of the Ia
coma milling company, said to be near
ly $4,000 short in his accounts, and
who for several weeks had lived in
Louisville under the assumed name of
asphyxiation last night at his apart>
ments, 119 East Jacob street.
The finding of the body of the sui
eide was brought about by a letter he
had written to a. friend. The officers
went to the apartment at 10 o'clock
and found the rooms on the second floor
unlocked. The smell of gas was strong
in the hallway, and the patrolmen
opened the windows for the fumes to
escape before entering and examining
the premises
in a pool of>blood on the dining room
floor. Lying face downward with a
feed hose off the gas stove in his mouth
theJifeless body of Pinkham was found
on the floor in the bathroom. He was
clad only in his trousers and an under
shirt. A stab wound under the heart
showed where he had made an unsuc-
cessful attempt to end his life before
inhaling the gas. The following note,
written in a clerical hand, was dis
covered on the pillowcase in the bed
room:
Louisville, KY, November 16, 1908.
To the Coroner. Louisville, Ky.-Please

Tacoma, Wash, of the death of their
former. cashier, known here as j. f.
Hamilton They will notify my fam
lily there.

A telegram was sent to his former
employers with the request that they
notify Pinkham's relatives.

FIRST ELECTRIC
SINKING PUMP
Fred c. Richmond Sells 1t to
TlntiC Smelling Co. for
Swansea Shaft.

The first electric sinking pump ever
ordered by Utah company was pur-
chased from Fred C. Richmond yester-
day by the Tintic Smelling company
popularity designated as the Jesse
Knight smelling company. The pump
in intended for use at the old Swan
sea property, where it will be used to
unwater the shaft and lift the water
from the 1900 to the S0O-foot level
From the latter point the water will be
pumped to the surface by an electric
station pump, ordered some time ago.
Mr.. Richmond has guaranteed the ship
ment of the sinker within thirty-five
days from Denver, so it will reach the
mine about the middle of April, if not
before. The pump has a capacity for
handling 800 gallons of water per min
ute against 500-foot head, which rep
resents more than the present natural
flow of the mine. It is known, however,
that much more water can be developed
and the probabilities are that, once the
1900 level is reached, another station
pump will be installed and the sinker
will be used to go deeper and develop
an additional flow.
All that is now going on helps to en-
phasize the fact that the Tintic Smelt-
ing company means business, and that
its plant will be placed in commission
with as little delay as possible.

BIG OPERATORS LAND
GOLD CIRCLE PROPERTY

After being delayed a couple of days
waiting for some of the parties booked
for the trip, Willard F. Snyder, Grant
Snyder, OrsOn Keeler and others left
for the Gold Circle camp yesterday
afternoon. The party will land at Col
conda today and take automobiles into
the new district. There two or three
different propositions are to be in
spected and one, which has already
been tied up by w. F. Snyder, c. E.
Loose, George Wingfield and Adrian c..
Ellis, jr., will be placed under active
development before the party returns.
AS noted, a powerful syndicate has
taken hold of the property here re-
ferred to and, while not a single MEM
Der of the syndicate has yet seen the
ground, it had such faith in the re-
ports that had been made that no hes
itancy was shown in going down for
the money that was necessary to bind
a bargain for the ground, ground that
was presented to the crowd by ]. A.

GOLD BULLION
FROM JENNIE
Gold Springs a Utah Camp
That Is Rapidly Max
ing Good.

Friday. $500 gold bar from the
Jennie company's property at Gold
Springs was shot out for the mint, and
tomorrow another of the same size will
be in the market. As at present run
ing, the company's mill is now turning
out bullion at the rate of about 81, 00C
a week, and when the cyanide plant is
placed in commission a few days from
now, the company will be in shape to
make the plant earn approximately
$1,000 a day.
1t is pertinent at this time to call at
tention to the fact that the Jennie is
a Utah gold mine; that real gold bull
lion is being made and shipped, not
through the papers, but to the minis
for coinage into shining $40 pieces. II
is realized, of course, that Utah has
nc right to have gold mines; that right
belongs only to Rawhide, Manhattan,
Wonder and other wonderful, stupen-
dous, magnificent, bewildering regions
to the west. Gold Springs is in Iron
county. The value of its leQges was
determined last year. 1t is turning out
the bullion from one mine already. Be-
fore the year is over it will be ship
ping the yellow metal from others, not
to bank vaults under armed guards,
but to the market, and it will keep it
up for years.
Gold Springs has lodges that would
drive Nevada boosters crazy if they
were in the desert instead of where
they are, and the money to bring them
to the front is being advanced in guam
titles that mean something. There is
a wonderful country down there and,
now that the country is looking for
Onf6 If might No I'd hIa To
gest that right here in Utah, where
the world has finally come to learn
legitimate mining is done on a ire
mendOus scale; where mines are
worked for dividends instead of the
stockholders, is where the best oppor-
tunities for gold investments are to
be found.

NAM MOTH MINE MAKING
HISTORY AT DEPTH

At the Mammoth Mining company S
property at Tintic, another carload of
gold ore is being made UP that will, ac-
cording to the best obtainable informa-
ton, run better than 81 900 a ton, with
the certainty that the consignment will
be worth considerably more than $780,
600, or five dividends of &c a share. The
management declines to admit more
than that a car of high-grade is being
accumulated; but that is all that is
necessary. The Mammoth manage
ment is not In the habit of claiming
anything, but when it acknowledges
that rich ore is being accumulated for
shipment, there is never a chance to
question it, because the goods are al
ways forthcoming.
1t is also reported from camp that the
company is or has been finding some OF
the richest copper ore ever unearthed in
the Tintic district on the 2,260-foot level.
1t is believed the secondary enrich
ment zone is being penetrated at the
depth mentioned and that the next few
hundred feet are going to carry the
workings into the solid sulphides and
that when they are opened, all pre-
vious records in this splendid old mine
are going to be eclipSed.

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE
Week Has Been One of Lively Trad
IND and Strong Prices.

The action of mining stocks on the To-
cal exchange during the past week has
reflected a condition to conjure with.
There has been hardly a spark OF hope
in the metal markets; there has been no
change in the smelter situation. But for
all that stocks have been on the jump and
the Tintic list, particularly, is showing
q strength that is suggestive OF a lively
spring boom. 1t is argued, and rightly,
too that the mines of that camp never
looked so well and, while they may not
find conditions right for heavy production
for a time, the ore reserves are being
added to all the time, and they represent
lust so much money in bank, money that
cannot fail 10 be available sooner or later.
During the week total of 791,192 shares
of stock with a selling value of $685., 306 10,
changed hands. Yesterday g. 73 shares of

EIGHT DRILL HOLES
NOW DRAINING ONTARIO

Park City, March with the good
news that another hole is expected
through at the drain tunnel by tonight,
the heart of every business man, as
well as the public generally, will be
filled with joy, as it is now almost a
certainty that there will be absolutely
nothing done until the draining of the
Ontario No. shaft has been COM
pleted.
Superintendent George Ames. who
has had charge Of this work for the
past year, feels gratified over the
rapid progress that is being made. and
the big fellow is certainly to be con-
graduated on the way in which this
work has been carried on. Up to the
present time the total decrease of the
water in the shaft from the water
level, which was thiTty-f1ve feet be-
low the 1,100-foot level, is 1877 feet, or
an average of three and one-half feet
per day since the first hole went
through from the side drift in the drain
tunnel level
The hole that is expected through
tonight will make eight in all, and it
is the belief of the management that
with this number of holes enough wa
ter can be taken out to drain the No.
shaft rapidly, as every precaution is
being taken to prevent the large flow
of water now going through the tunnel
from washing the timbers out and
causing a cavern.
A steam hosting engine has been
installed at the Ontario No. 2 shaft for
the purpose of taking care of the men
employed at cleaning up the tunnel
level, and the long tramp through the
underground way is now a thing of
the past.

T|HT|C MINE
CLOSES DOWN
Rather Than Pile Up Expenses
Lower Mammoth Manage
ment Gives Order to Quit.
WILL BE ONLY TEMPORARY
MARKET FOR ORE is PRACTICAL
LY ASSURED IN APRIL.

A special meeting of the directors of
was held yesterday afternoon, at which
it was decided to close down the mines
until such time as it is possible to
market ore. This, it is expected, will
be possible within a few weeks, or
some time during the coming month.
Most of the work that has been going
on for several months has been in the
nature of development and, while there
have been opened up large quantities
of merchantable ore, the company has
not been able to sell it under its con-
tract with the United States company,
so there has been no means of keeping
up the heavy expense that the opera
ton of the property has entailed.
The recent issue of bonds that was
offered to the stockholders was not
subscribed to to any extent, everybody
feeling that times did not justify the
tying up of money in any manner.
This issue was decided upon in order
that the shaft might be sunk to the
2,000-foot level and that a vigorous
plan of development might be rushed
along during the time that the mine
might be prevented from marketing
its product. As that proposition has
not met with favor at this time and
under prevailing conditions, the diree-
tors have felt that the best thing to
do was. to cut off all expense until such
time as the mine could be made to
supply the money.
The hearing in the United States
company's application for permission
to run does not come up until the end
of this month, so there is no chance to
market ore under the old contract,
which is still in force, until the smell
ter starts again, or. in the event of its
not resuming, the finding of a market
elsewhere.
1t is stated by the management that
the Tintic Smelling company will buy
the ore, if the company will let it have
it, and that shipments may commence
during the coming month. Other OPP
portunities also are presenting them
selves and there is no question but
what, before the end of April, the mine
will resume again and begin the ship
ping of ore.
When things shape around for it, as
is sure to be the case when the mine
begins production and demonstrates
its ability to make money, there will
be no trouble in selling enough of the
convertible bonds to carry out the
shaft sinking and other development
propositions that have had to be tenn
porarily abandoned.

conditions are right during the summer,
it is possible that a plan of reorganiza-
ton of the company might be fixed up
that would save everybody, but, as
things look at the present time, the men
who have advanced this money to the
companies will have to take the prop
critics and thus shut out the small fry.
