species.
In addition to the timber estima-
tors who carry on the work, the field
party includes also a cook and team
ster, and the entire camp outfit is

to regulate the location and amount
of sales made with view to avoiding
any possible danger of overcutting

NO TEARS WERE SHED AS
THE OUTLAW WAS BURIED

Only three carriages followed the
body of C. l.. Maxwell to the ecm-
etery Wednesday afternoon and there
was no meeting of the two women
who claimed the outlaw as their law
full husband
There was no funeral service and
no tears were shed over the plain oak
coffin which contained the body of
one of the last of the western bandits,
as it was taken from the chapel of
Eber w. Hall and placed in the
hearse. Mrs. Maxwell No ., who
calls herself Mrs. w. II. Seaman. with
her two daughters and one son, were
the only mourners, and the bearers
were only acquaintances, with the
exception of S. A. King. a local at
torney, and NJ. p. Braffet, another at
torney. The lawyers had been asso-
ciated in the defence of Maxwell in
one or more of the cases where he
was called TO answer charge of at
tempted murder. S. A. King was also
connected with the prosecution of the
bandit when he was convicted for rob
bing the Springville bank about
twelve years ago.
The body was brought from the
morgue to the chapel at O'Clock.
and half hour later Mrs. Seaman
arrived with her two daughters, aged
ii and 13, and her son. aged 6. The
attorneys and five other acquaint-
ances of Maxwell came at about the
same time and without services the
body was carried to the hearse. Four

Styles

The popular belief that if
you keep your raiment
long enough it will again
come into STYLE" has gained
added strength in the de-
velopment Of new ideas
this year. The theme for
the present artistic costume
has no less precedent than
the garments worn by the
wives and daughters Of
Frankish chieftans in the.
middle ages. The influence
exerted by this new note is
clearly portrayed in several
of the importations. The
possibilities for its general
adoption are all the greater,
seeing that apart, perhaps,
from a gradual lowering Of
the waistline. the styles in
troduced will be but little
divergent from the classic
effects.

PROSPERITY is NOT COMING
but HERE-KEARNS OPT|M|ST|
ELY DISTRICT GREATEST OF ALL.--MUCH AHEAD

Former United States Senator
Thomas Kearns, accompanied by
General Manager G. E. Allen and
Engineer J. F. Smith of the United
States Smelling Co., arrived in the
district last night and will remain
for several days. Senator Kearns
is here to look over his holdings in
the Mcdonald Ely and the Success
mining companies. Messrs. Allen
and Smith are here to look over the
situation with regard to securing
lead ore for their smelter at Salt
Lake and, incidentally, to determine
whether they can handle the product
of the Success mining company,
which is now shipping proposition.
81 am one of the pioneers of the
district" said Senator Kearns last
night, land am familiar with most
of the workings, but l want to take
another look over the entire camp.
Outside one hear a great deal of
Ely, and it is the one place in Ne
vada that is regarded with favor
by all classes of investors as a per-
manent camp. 1t does not require
a great deal of intelligence to grasp
situation like this, for we know
from the developments already that
Ely will be shipping camp for a
generation to come. 1t is a manu-
featuring opposition in Ely and
there is no doubt in my mind that it
will eclipse Butte, that it will, in
fact, be the greatest copper camp in
the world.
''The new railroad coming in here,
the Ely-Goldfield, if it is to come,
will be of the greatest benefit to the
community of Ely as well as the
entire district. 1t means the plac-
ing of Ely on transcontinental line
and that means the making of the
camp. We are in need of more rail-
roads in this section. We should
have better connections with Salt
Lake. 1t is absurd that it should
from the Lake. Then another thing,
the western roads are congested with
freight, and this condition means al
most coal famine; not that there
is not coal enough, for there is plen-
ty to be had, but that there is a
scarcity of cars to haul it.
''Of course this congestion of
freight means another thing, and
that is that there has been a tre-
mendous increase in business of all
kinds, for it is business needs that
create the congestion of traffic.
Freight is moving both east and
west, and this applies to all kinds
of freight, so that there is no doubt
in the world of the prosperous con-
dition of business and trade affairs.
look for the greatest era of pros
perity that the country has ever
known, and look for it right away.
Next year will be banner year, in
all directions, with regard to busi-
ness. We are in the beginning of
the prosperous era right at this mo-
ment.
"Of the future of Ely district
there can be no DOUBT. 1t is the
camp of the lowest cost copper pro-
duced in the world, and that there
is an abundance of ore here is being
shown every day, both in develop
ment work and in the actual produc-
tion of copper. I am going to the
Success mine, If the roads permit,

without delay and yesterday was out

three weeks during which he was
away.
General conditions in the East
said Mr.. Smith in response to query
are excellent. Confidence
is high and the outlook of the best.
A great deal of money is being in
vested and more coming out. hTe
coppers are a trifie off, because of
the uncertainty that is felt about the
terms of merger. This will right it.
self in due time.
People in the East who have been
out here inquired eagerly about the
camp and are as enthusiastic about
it as ever-mOre SO, in fact, because
the district is steadily advancing in
public esteem. Regarding all local
enterprises there is good feeling
among those interested in the east
and satisfaction with the situation in
the district. Everything is working
out nicely. We have no reason to
feel otherwise than highly optimistic
here"

FRANCHISE
PUT OVER
FOR WEEK
Held up for Amendment
Want Railroad, but AL
so Want Assurances

Arguments were heard pro and
can before the city council last
night on the granting of the fran
chise to the Ely-Goldfield road, Civ
ing it an entrance to and right-of-
way through the city of Ely. One
thing was positive, everybody wants
the railroad, wants it badly, and
wants it to come through the city.
A number of amendments were Of
fered to the franchise, some OF
which the railroad did not favor, and
some the city did not desire. The
result was that the matter was laid
over for a week, during which time
the city attorney will dress some OF
the amendments, throw out some
and boil down the whole proposition
to tangible and Ineligible instru-
ment which will show both the rail
road and the people where they are
at.
The principal protests to the fran
chise came from property owners
along the line of Garden street
through the city, alongside the Ne
vada Northern tracks. In nutshell
the property-owners ask for compen
sation for the property which will
be wanted for the line and wan
their damages assessed before the
damage is done. 1t was suggested
that the railroad buy 40 lots on Gar
den street. No price was asked, bu
the sum of 100000 was tentativel.
mentioned, with shadings to $4,000
and $4,000.
Engineer G. M. Rasor for the Ely
Goldfield road declared that his com
pany did not want those 40 lots
that they had no use for them; ant
it was suggested that they sell then
again for more money, but the rail
road is not in the real estate bust
ness. Mr.. Rasor said that some peo-
pie would be damaged by the run
ming of the tracks through Garder
street; but that the greater major
ity would be benefited. This was
the history of all progress. 1t was
then that Councilman Witcher sug
gested that the property owners gel
line of what they want to do; ther
get together with the railroad people
and see what could be done.
The general tenor of the meeting
was that the Ely Goldfield road shal
come through Ely; and the genera
belief that it will pass down Garder
street with the Nevada Northern
road.
The full council was present, May
or Mcdonald presiding. The mayo
called for the report of the stree
committee, which was presented II

whether our ore can be handled.
Those gentlemen are here also to
look over the district as well as our
properties. They, in the interests of
their business, want to keep abreast
of the times, and they want to know
what is going on here. Possibly,
they will want to know also what
the new railroad is going to bring.
Theirs is trip of general inspection,
and / believe they will remain here
for several days"
Senator Kearns and his party
were met at the train by Mayor Nc
Donald, who is interested with Keith
and Kearns in the Success and Nc
Donald Ely. 1t is probable that, dur
ing the visit of Senator Kearns ar
rangements will be made for the
resumption of work on the McDon-
aid Ely.

SERIOUS IS
BIG STRIKE:
OUTCOME
Many Thousands Out Of
Employment Today--ls
Likely to Close Butte

ST. PAUL, Dec. 1.-The far
reaching effects of the switchmen' s
strike, should it be protracted, is
shown in dispatch from Butte,
Mont, where immense copper mines
and smelters are located. They are
dependent on the railroads directly
concerned in the strike. Inability
to get coke in to the smelters will
cause the suspension of their opera
tions and fully 10000 men in mines
and smelters would become idle.
Summary of the switchmen on
strike in Montana shows 80 out at
Livingston; IL at Glendive; at Bill
lings; 10 at Helena; at Butte; 35
at Deer Avery and Alberton; 8 at
Missoula, Garrison, Saltese, Stregis,
Paradise and Wallace, Idaho; SO at
Great Falls, and SO at Havre. Busi-
ness in many lines is being interfered
with. Little freight is being handled
st. Paul and Minneapolis millers are
quoted as saying they would close
all their big flour mills tomorrow
This would throw about $4,000 men
out of work.
The railway managers committee
have announced that an effort is be-
ing made to bring in new men to
take the places of the striking switch
men. The switchmen in reply have
declared that if the railroads attempt
to use non-union switchmen, the To-
comotive firemen might refuse to
handle the cars.
PORTLAND, Dec. 1.-The Ore
gon Railroad and Navigation Co.
lines are not being affected by the
switchmen's strike. The Northern
Pacific and North Bank Roads are
diverting their freight to that sys-
tenn. No perishable freight is being
accepted by any of the roads af-
fected by the strike.
SPOKANE, Dec. Freight traf-
fc is almost completely tied up to-
day on the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern main lines and on
all their branches centering here.
Eighty switchmen left their places
on the Northern Pacific here last
night, while forty-five quit the Great
Northern. The total number of men
made idle here by the strike, includ-
ing engineers and brakemen, is es-
timated at $50, with hundreds more
likely to follow.
Passenger traffic is not affected.
Most of the immediate danger
through the strike to this part of
the country is in shortage of fuel
which is likely if the strike con-
tinues for any length of time.
