many regard as being one Of the
most valuable assets of the Nevada
Utah corporation. Indeed, the Man
haitian is wonderfully attractive, and
as an undeveloped proposition, it Is
one that appeals to the mining man
as being property, which after prop
er development, is bound to be a
very large producer of ore.
Ii is generally understood that
when the Nevada ytah and Ohio Ken
lucky reached an agreement for
consolidation of the mines along
the Black ledge just above town,
i, was with the understanding that
the active management was to be in
the hands of men not connected here
tofore with either of the old concerns
hence that left Mr. Gaskill, as well as
William Lloyd. superintendent Of the
Ohio Kentucky, out of consideration.
In the meantime, preparations are
going ahead for operation of the
consolidated mines upon large scale
and the construction of mill tha
!, will Civ" employment to many men.
| Mr. Gaskill and his staff hav'
! hosts OF friends who regret to se'
! them leave Phoebe.

pared with 10,193,434 pounds for the
eek previous and l5,678.665 pounds
for the corresponding week Of 1908.
Total exports for the calendar year
70 and including Oct. were 1896, ,240,-
237 pounds as compared with 434. .269,-
826 pounds for the corresponding per-

pounds.
Copper is little lower on the
showing made by the Producers as
sociation figures on Monday of al
increase in surplus during September
of nearly 10000, 900 pounds.

EAST PRINCE LOOKS
VERY ENCOURAGING

Development work is progressing
steadily at the East Prince property
aud the shaft is down to depth of
80 feet with the bottom showing
some lively looking porphyry. Officers
OF the company are very much encour

be prepared to report the strike of
an ore body.
The East Prince company has been
financed by syndicate of Salt Lake
]. ining men, headed by George Tar
ghetta. Lumber has arrived at the
mine and the shaft is to be timbered
from the surface down.

WILLIAM MCLEOD DEAD.
Miner Stricken With Heart Failure
Falls Down G. Prince Shaft.

"A terrible fate befell William A.
Mcleod, well known miner, in the
Golden Prince mine late Saturday
night
Mcleod had been working on the
night shift with Hiram Atkins and
William Keisling. At 10 o'clock. the
lnnch hour, the three men climbed
onto the rim of the bucket, gave the
signal to hoist-just had been GUS
tomary for them to do on previous
occasions. When within fifty feet
Of the collar of the shaft, Mcleod
evidently became afflicted with
heart failure, for without moments
warning to his companions, releas-
ed his grip on the rope and sank
10 the bottom nearly 400 feet,
| After brief stop, and realizing
the inevitable fate of Mcleod after
taking such a plunge, Atkins and
/ hiesling continued to the surface
| to give the alarm.
In due time, General Manager Coke
4 was Oh the scene and, with several
others, went below. The grusome
sight that met their eyes on the
way down and after they had reach
bottom of the shaft was sickening
in the extreme; but nerving them
selves to do their duty, they plao-
fsd the limp and mangied form OF
the victim of the accident in the
bucket and brought it to the sur
face. McLeod's head was gone and
the particles of bone and brain mat
ter not strewn about where the
body landed, were found principally
on the timbers at the 300.
, County Physician Duckworth ant
, Coroner Garrison were called to thu
scene and ordered the remains
! brought to town, which upon arrivini
, here were conveyed to the Miners
' union hall where they were prepared

G Mcleod, from whom he was divorces
! some months ago. daughter an

/ Following the inquest held Monday
the coroner's jury rendered verdie
exonerating the company from an
blame; dec airing that death had bee
brought about by an attack of hear
failure and subsequent fall down tn
shaft.

GASKiLL TO LEAVE THE
NEVADA UTAH MINES

A complete change in the local man
i,gement of the Nevada Utah Mines
& Smelters corporation is just
about to occur The resigna-
tions Of General Manager James P.
Gaskill and his trained corps of
assistants has been forwarded to New
York and in the meantime, the Day
inine at Jack Rabbit, where the COM
pany has centered its energy for sew
eral years, has been closed down
tight. The magnificent plant at Jack
Rabbit is in the hands of watch
man; the locomotives of the Phoebe
Pacific railroad have been housed.
other words, Nevada Utah has ceas-
ed operations altogether.
To persons who have closley OBJ
served recent developments, the an
nouncement has come as no surprise.
IN fact, it was rather expected; yet
the hope was entertained that
General Manager Gaskill might be
permitted to remain and operate the
mines belonging to the Nevada Utah
sibly that would have been the case
not included in the consolidation
Possibly that would have been the
case had the Tintic sme.ter contin
ued in operation and furnished mar
ket for Day ores. But the closing
os the Tintic smelter put a new phas
onto the situation and President
Iearnard telegraph from New Yorl
to Mr.. GaskTll to shut down every
thing-aud he has done so.
OF course, temporarily at least
this order will have it's effect on al
lines of business in the camp, but the
assurance has been given, and this
information comes from parties ir
position to know that the shut dowr
Of the Day mine and the cutting Of
Of a payroll aggregating nearly $1,000
per month is only a move in the di
rection Of greater things for Pioch'

1t is very evident that the Nevads
