MEN ARE SAFELY LODGED IN THE
CITY PESTHOUSE.
They Are Laborers Belonging to Con

Two cases Of smallpox were dis
covered in this city yesterday by
Health officer George Shorten. In
both instances the disease was in a
mild form, but the men were lodged
safely in the pest house and the
houses and camps at which they had
been stopping were thoroughly quar-
antIned to prevent further spread of
the dreaded disease.
Eugene Goldsby, laborer employed
in the block signal camp of the Or

He made business trip to Ogden

charged from the gang. He was re-

Mr.. Clyde Lindsay, Mormon mis-

Switzerland and Germany for the
past three years, and who has been,
for the greater part Of that time, the
president of the Berlin conference,
spoke to a large congregation last
evening at the Fifth ward meeting

lines of church doctrine, intermingled
with few OF his personal missionary
experiences.
The speaker declared that 1t was
his opinion that the missions of Ger
many were among, II not the greatest,

authorities, apostles operating In that

HARTRlDGE.
Who Is Suing For $4,000, Spent to
Conciliate Persons Who Would
Have Injured Client.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, May 23.-Harry
X Thaw and his mother both Issued
statements tonight attacking the af-
fldavit made and statement issued in
New York yesterday by Clifford w.
Hartidge, formerly OF counsel for
Thaw, in which the lawyer said that
"hush money" to conciliate persons
who would have otherwise injured his
client. Mr.. Hartridgc Is suing for
counsel fees and issued mis- statement
after motion had been made by Mrs.
Thaw calling for bill of particulars
In his suit
Harry Thaw Is in the Matteawan
asylum and his mother has been al
most constantly In touch with him.

to keep my son out of Matteawan.'
Harry Thaw's statement is similar
to that of his mother but In addition
1t bristles with personal attacks upon
Hartridge. The statement says, among
other things:
"The affidavit published by c. w.
Hartridge is composed OF falsehoods
from beginning to end Were any
truth in 1t / should have him dis
barred, but there is no truth in IT. He
never spent $4,000. nor $1,000, nor
500 in hush money, as he pretends.

tell you that Hartridge's pretense of
having suppressed anything Is hum

HAS GREAT COPPER MINE 4
IN SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA

A. n. Cram, the big, genial president
and general manager Of the California
Gold & Copper company, was in town
last Monday, says the Searchlight
Bulletin. "Just over to see what do
ing. was the way he described his
visit. 81 like to get acquainted with
my neighbors and keep in touch with
the development of the country"
The estate Of the California Gold 4
Copper company is best known as the
"Cram Property" And no wonder,
for Cram located the property IL years
ago, and it is due solely to his in
dividual efforts that the same has been
brought to it's present splendid state
of development.
The corporation has nine claims, To-
Gated about one and one-half miles in
a northeasterly direction from the lit
tie station of vontrigger on the line Of
the Searchlight & Barnwell railway, in
the Exchequer mining district, San
Bernardino county, California.
Copper is the mineral mined, and the
great deposit is no less than 1900 feet
in width. Three shafts have been sunk,
the deepest being down 81 feet. The
deposit has been prosecuted for 500
feet without reaching either wall. In
all 1000 feet of underground de-
velopment has been done. Mr.. Cram
figures that the deposit will average 4
per cent, with, of course, lots of ore
which is high grade.
At a cost of $4,000 seven inches of
water has been piped in from t he

blackberry Mountains, a distance of
seven and three-quarter miles. The
equipment comprises a hoist, compress
sor, blacksmith chop, etc. In all, there
are 20 different substantial buildings,
including a general store.
But Mr.. Grams particular pride is
the reduction plant. As the story goes,
he has had innumerable offers to sell
the property, likewise to secure all
kinds of financial backing in return for
the control of the property. But for
nearly a score Of years he has held on
with bulldog tenacity, meeting and sur
mounting each succeeding obstacle.
Having opened and proven his ore
body, next came the question Of hand
ling the output. The nearby railroad
offered easy means Of disposing of the
higher grade, but the retaining of the
values from the lower or average grade
was a problem fraught with countless
difficulties. But with the characteristic
energy Mr.. Cram tackled the question,
and after several years of experimental
work perfected an entirely new pro-
cess, known as the electrical teaching
process.
A 100-ton plant is now in process of
construction, which will be in operation
within the next 60 days. By MI.
Grams treatment the copper goes into
solution and is extracted chemically
pure, thus saving transportation
charges and refining. The cost per ton
for mining and treating the ore is Civ
