Hon. James A. Murray, Who has for many years been one of the boldest Usurers in the diggings of Montana, is down from Butte again devoting his energies to deal involving one of the good things that Utah has on its bargain counter, and an occasional dip in the lake, says the Salt Lake Tribune. Concerning Montana the visitor says that at no time since the development of its mines was begun has there been as much ore exposed. While the market for copper, which he last spring predicted would go to ,20 cents a pound, has added many hundreds of thousands of dollars to the earnings of the commonwealth.

The dividend-payers are all in fine feather, stocks themselves have maintained a steady figure, not 'a few prospectors have found a market for their discoveries, and labor is thriving. In many of the gold camps old proposi tions have been aroused to new life, new ones have found means with which to start and an increase will doubtless show in that metal during the year. Mr. Murray has a large circle of acquaintancps here, who hope to see him get permanent foothold in Utah. MINING NOTEb.

A third interest in the Campbell, Lund and Johnson grou'p of claims in Eagle valley, near Deer Lodge, has been purchased by Messrs. A. W. MoCune and W. L.

Hoge. The Butte nurchasers of the April Fool mine at De La Mar, yesterday made the final payment of $75,000 at Salt Lake. The company will be reorganized. Local mining and smelting men place no credence in the story sent out a few davs aa-o about the proposed building of a smelter at Leadville to cost $25,000,000. There would not be business enough to engage such a huge smelter or to make it profitable for any such amount oi capital.

THAT IS HIS VERSION Turned Over to the County Authori ties Today and Will be Prosecuted for Grand Larceny Henry Stork, who was arrested last night by the police on a charge of horse stealing, after maintaining his innocence some time, finally admitted his guilt Captain Leyden, and this morning was turned over to the county authorities. The animal stolen belonged to George Creighton and was taken from a pasture south of the city several days ago. Creighton had reported his loss to the authorities and last night was walking along Park street when he saw his animal tied to a hitching post. He called an officer's attention to the horse and told him the circumstances, but the officer told him he would have to have some wcul known citizen corroborate his claim before ha could take the animal away. Creighton went away to get some friends to identify him, and while he was gone Stork appeared, and was proceeding untie the animal when the officer interfered and said lie would have to wait until Creighton's return.

Stork protested with a great show of indignation, but the officer was firm. A little later Creighton returned with a friend and satisfied the officer that the horse was his property. Stork was taken to the city jail, where confessed to Captain Leyden. He said had beon working on a Jefferson county ranch and had been out hunting horses. His animal became exhausted and lie borrowed Creighton's without leave, intending to return it tomorrow.

Martha Hood, at 544 West Broadway, Wednesday morning. At first it was thought that an inquest was not necessary, but as death came so unexpectedly that a physician was not in attendance, and a. death certificate was therefore not forthcoming, the coroner concluded to make an official investigation. The testimony was practically the same as the story of the finding of the body as published by the Inter Mountain on Wednesday evening, and the jury returned a verdict to the effect that the deceased had come to his death from an attack of heart failure. tukat fouth i cm mki Professor Gentry's school of performing dogs and ponies, who are to exhibit under a tent in this city, on South Jackson street, near West Galena, four days, starting Monday.

Wix. Two Parties in Possession of the Homestake Mine TROUBLE MAY FOLLOW The Silver King: Mine Suspends Operations Owing; to an Injunction Suit. "Wednesday afternoon the Montana Ore Purchasing company closed a deal by which it acquired a two-thirds interest in the Homestake mine in Park canyon, the consideration, however, not being given. The interests acquired were owned by Con Sullivan and Henry Nichols. The other one-third interest is held by the Glass brothers of Basin.

Yesterday the Heinzes placed a watchman at the mine and began making preparations to begin work. There is an enormous quantity of water to be pumped out, and arrangements being made to umvater the mine before beginning sinking. The Glass brothers, however, were not parties to the arrangement, and yes terday noon, during the temporary absence of the watchman, a number of men in their employ proceeded to the mine, effected an entrance to the hoist through a hole in the roof and began work. When Heinze's watchman returned be was ordered off the premises, and the Glass brothers now have possession of the hoist, although a number of Heinze's men are digging around the shaft house. James Glass, one of the Glass brothers, said today that he and his brother had spent $30,000 some two years ago in developing the Homestake, and they did not propose to turn it over to others at this time, until some satisfactory arrangements could be made.

There are large bodies of copper ore in the Homestake, but the ore is too low grade to ship at a profit to a smelter or concentrator. The shaft is 550 feet in depth, and it is believed that with additional depth some good bodies of high grade copper will be uncovered. THE SILVER KING. The Silver King mine, in Missoula gulch, which has been operated during the past few months by Wakeman Sutton and James A. Talbot, suspenaea opera tions last nicht.

owing to an injunction suit which was filed in the district court yesterday by the owners of the Plymouth lode claim. The latter contend that the Silver King vein departs from the side line of the latter claim into the Plymouth claim. Surveyors have been at work tor some time in tne silver jvmg iu ucm-mine the question, and the suit is the result. The Silver King is owned by James A. Murray and Silas F.

King. William Waller obtained a lease on it a couple of years a.go, and after striking rich silver ore lost his life in the shaft. His partner, Milo H. Sanders, continued work for some months thereafter and cleaned up about $15,000. The ore body pinched out and Sanders sold out to Sutton and James A.

Talbot. There is said to be a splendid body of high grade silver ore where they left off work, and a crew of leasers will start work in a few days on the Plymouth to locate the vein by a crosscut from the old shaft. FUTURE OF COPPER. The Boston News Bureau says: In view of tha small stocks in the visible supply and the continued strength of the metal at 18c, the failure of some of the better class of copper stocks to respond is surprising. The producing companies are making handsome profits at current selling prices for the metal.

By reason of contracts taken for future delivery, it is doubtful if the majority of the producing companies received on an average much over 1516c for their product during the first six months of this year. A 16c selling price, however, means for most of the companies 100 per cent profit and more over cost of production. The selling price for the latter half of ttie year should average between 17c and ISc, making say a 17c price for the year. There is talk that at the present selling price for its copper, say 17MsC. Montana can pay its shareholders $40 per share per annum and carry $1,000,000 to its surplus account, now above 000,000.

THE HIGHLAND BOY. Tim creat Highland Boy smelter in the valley is going along in the usual way and treating the steady stream of ore sent down from the mine daily, says one of the Salt Lake papers. Another big shinmt-nt of 259 copper pigs lias been loadad onto cars and ent eaai to ttio tiew Jersey refineries. The lot consisted of Sl.nso nounds. which, at the present price of copper, will bring the company close onto for that mciai aione.

Manager Poland is pushing things at the Highland Boy and although 1m has been at the helm but a short time, he has every department under his charge working as smoothly as clock work. MR. CLARK VISITING 0PHIR. Salt Lake Tribune: Hon. W.

A. Clark. vb last season shelled out $75,000 spot cash for the properties of the Ophir HIM Mining company nt Ophir, arrived from Butte last night, accompanied by E. -W. Clark, his engineer.

He will leave for his Ophir possessions tomorrow, where he will begin a thorough examination of It, and before leaving for the north again will have arranged for further work. This will be, In nil probability, followed by work on the proposed pyrliic smeller, although definite arrangements for this have not yet been made. The Ophir group furnishes a splendid foundation for such nn undertaking, nnl although the grade of ore is low It hns been mail" to yield nice profits by concentration.
