ASSAY CHARGES
To Be DOUBLED
Government Finds That West
ern Offices Are Losing Too
Much Money.
INCREASES MAY RESULT
IN BRANCHES CLOSING
Lost Money in Salt Lake, but
Business Increasing, Says
J. l.. May.

There ,pnears 10 be some danger that
Salt Lake may lose the Lnitod Sth'ee
assay office OF which j. L. Eldredse JT'
Is a5sayer in charge. The government, IL
seems, has discovered that the various
assay offices In the west have been losing
money and It has been decided TO double
the charges now made. II is believed that
such course on the part OF Washington
will close number of the offices and II
Is feared that the Salt Lake office being
one of the new ones. will be one Of the
first to &C.
A Washington dispatch received last
night has the following:
WASHINGTON. July 30.-More land
marks OF the old west Will begin TO dis.
appear January L. unless congress should
PASS legislation to maintain the scattered
western assay offices on ;heir present
basis.
The government has decided to double
the charges for aSsnyinR at Deadwood;
Carson. Salt Lake City. Helena. Boise and
Seattle. Congressman from those places
protest that the Increased charge VIII
panies viii prefer to send their gold TO
the mints, where the assaying charge VIII
not be increased.
Treasury officials SAY the offioes nave
been a dead loss for years, Seattle, they
say. does quite n business in assnyinG
gold that comes from Alaska, but at all
others the government loses money.
The government established some OF
these assay offices in tho stirring days
when a messenger setting out over the
pass with a fortune in his saddle -bngs,
often failed to return and the professional
''assaycr' was classed with the card
sharp and the eunman. No miner was
assured Of an honest assay OF his treas
ure.
But with the advent OF mining machin
cry the offices became less useful because
many Of the big companies preferred to
send their gold direct TO the mints.
May Says Is Needed.
]. L. Eldredge, Jr,. who has charge OF
on fishing trip but his chief clerk. J l..
May admits that tho assay office Is losing
money He sets forth. however, that the
business hns increased very much In the
period OF a little over two years that the
office has been opened here,
Tho mining interests OF this country
demanded the Hssay office and X has
been shown that II is needed by the In
crease OF business" said Mr.. May Inst
night During fhe fiscal year ending
June 30. 1910 we received about $500. o0C
worth Of gold bullion and during the fiscal
year ending June 80. 1911; we received
about equal to what the express charge
would ne TO send the bullion to Denver
from here. The advantage to the mining
men near here. in having a Salt Lake Of
flee. is that they can dispose of their bull
lion In smaller quantities and get their
money for II much more quickly. We
buy the bullion in amounts as low as S2C
and at the mints they must be hundred
dollars"

HEARD AT CATHEDRAL

Able, eloquent and scholarly was the
sermon delivered yesterday morning al
81. Mary's cathedral by the Rev. Father
George T. McCarty Of st. Louis. who is
spending n Few days In the city, the guest
Of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Laurence SCanlan
OF this diocese. Father McCar,y dealt
with the perman"rcy and power Of the
religion of Christ as eNcmplincd by the
Catholic church. pointing out that while
the proudcst and most venerable families
pass away and become as yesterday, the
Church OF God lives on. growing in power
and influence.
For 1ftccn hundred years." the
speaker said. tho Catholic church reigned
nione. In und!sputed possession OF the
house OF Jesus Christ. even though these
centuries marked the critical period In
the history of the world In IT'S passage
from the domination OF superstition to an
acknowledgement Of the established rights
Of Christ. When the last ANALYSIS is
made. the last assertion made. we still
find the undeniable fact that the Catholic
church Is In possession, sacramentally
and doctrinally. of the house OF Jesus
Christ. The burden rests on those who
protest We stand supremely- indifferent
TO the assertion of passers-ny; VIC stand
with charity TO all. with ennity to none"
