Docs gold exist In Kanmis ? This Is a
question upon which there Is a wide < ll-
vcrgencs of opinion and the reports that the
yellow stuff In good paying quantities has
actually been discovered In the western
part of the etato along the Smoky 11111 river
In Trego and Kills counties , has created n ,
stir that Is confined not only to the state
of Kansas , but In attracting attention
throughout the whole middle west.
Some people , and there ere many of
them , believe that gold really exists In the
sections of Kansas mentioned above and nro |
BO confident that their Judgment IB correct )
that they have ventured several thousand of
dollars In the purchase of lands In which
the peculiar looking whales reported to
carry the gold are located , the prosecution of
development work and are now even going
so far ns to erect mills for the treatment
of the ore. The affair has reached a point
where It Is not a speculative scheme and
this can not bo charged against It. The
land situated adlaccnt to the gold-bearing
properties IB almost -wholly disposed of and
the present owners are In no wise disposed
to place It on the market , believing that
they nro the posswwors of that which will
ono day make them wealthy and permit
them to ilguro tn the same class of gold
mine barons KB Hearst , Haggln , Daly and
the root of the big gold bonaza kings.
The adverse criticism on the western Kan
sas gold excitement comes , In most cases ,
from sources which apparently have no
Interest whatever In the matter , but arc
disposed to look upon the reported gold dis
covery as a scheme bereft of reliability and
calculated to damage the record of the state
of Kansas.
Statement of Mr. AnilriiN.
It Is dimcult to arrive at the trim status
of the case. K. A. Andrus , general agent
in Kansas for the Union Pacific land depart
ment , Is a caller at the general headquarters
and In discussing this matter said :
"Nothing ha * created more widespread In
terest throughout Kansas than this gold ex
citement. For the past two years work has
been going on In the Smoky Hill region nnd
experienced mining men from southern Utah
have boon developing the ground. The gold
ig supposed to exist In a vast shale forma
tion , from 200 to 300 feet In thickness , and
extending over an area of forty by ten miles.
The shale is soft and grayish In color and
contains , so these Who believe In the re
ported discovery say , gold , silver and zinc.
There Is a peculiar process necessary to sep
arate the gold from the zinc , which was dis
covered by a man named Tockson. With him ,
also , was associated Thomas A. Edison , who
furnlsed the electrical end of the treatment.
Much of the innd In the Smoky Hill region Is
owned by a syndicate that purchased the
right to use this Jackson treatment from the
originators , Jackson and Edison , paying
them $30,000. The Ott syndicate- now at
work building a $20,000 mill atDenver / ,
which will bo adapted for the special treat
ment of this class of rock , and the members
of the syndicate are confident that they will
realize handsomely from It.
"Tho land in Ellis and Trego counties Is
almost all taken up and the owners of
property in that region are eagerly buying
up all that Is vacant , BO that there Is little
chance for any ono else to get in there.
The belief la held ( by many that the shale
bed extends on further to the -west of
Trogo and Ellin counties and oven assert
that it underlies nil of western Kansas. If
the present Holds are found to be bona
fldo and productive there is no doubt but
that all -western Kansas land wherever
there is an indication of shale trill bo rapIdly -
Idly bought up. "
There are divergent reports regarding the
assays that have been received on the gold
from western Kansas. These who have
faith in the discovery cite the fact that
many assays have been made on the shale ,
which shows that it contains an average
gold value of $14 to the ton. Some assays
have shown that the rock contains no gold ,
others report a gold-bearing value of from
$2.50 to $1,000 a ton. These who have the
"gold craze" claim that the ere la of such a
peculiar nature that an assayer is unable
to discover the presence of gold unless ho
has Just iho proper understanding of how
to extract It. At $14 a ton the shale beds
would provo Immensely productive to the
ownore. The supply Is practically Inex
haustible. The formation exists only a
tbort dlutanco below the surface and can bo
joined at in extremely low rate , not to
oxce d 25 cents a ton. Then 'with ' a mill
specially adapted for the treatment of the
ere the gold can bo extracted at a nominal
cost nnd the profit is figured at $10 per
ton. This la a greater per cent of profit
than IB derived from the production of
some of the richest gold mines In the world.
Despite the pronounced declaration of well-
informed mining men that there Is no gold
In Knnsnn the promoters of the Smoky Hill
mining properties are -working away and
spending all the money necessary to pur
sue their operations. The principal Inter
ested parties come from Lawrence and To-
poka. although there is a company of In
diana men and a company of Illinois parties
who have property. J. II. Thorpe of Omaha ,
traveling passenger agent of the Ponnsyl-
ranla railroad , owns ICO acres of land.
Dne Not Ilelleve In ICaiiNim Gold.
The most authentic denial of the existence
of gold In the Smoky II 111 river region comes
from the University of Kansas. Prof. Ha-
worth , who is associated with the university
In the geological department , has looked
carefully into the matter and is ( juotcd as
saying :
"Wo have no mlncu In Kansas producing
gold and silver. The material which the
gold is said to bo in is a flno-gralned shale ,
Tory abundant in the state , but there is
nothing about the strata to imply that any
eruptive action of any kind had over taken
place near them. From an extended study
of the geology of that part of the state It is
positively known that the great mass of
strata of ere la lying undisturbed and en
tirely removed from any eruptive action.
There is always n possibility of local dis
turbance similar to these in gold mining dis
tricts , but there is nothing of the kind in
western Kansas. Our principal disbelief in
the existence of gold and silver In Kansas Is
Attributed to two conditions. First , we can
find no gold In specimens sent to us for
tuisay , 60 cents to the ton being the highest
gold yield obtained nt the university , al
though 200 specimens have been assayed.
Second , the general character of the country
is euch that it would be mast remarkable
should any great amount of gold bo found
under like conditions. " .
Similar to South African Formation * .
On the other band expert opinion fs ad
vanced by Prof. Caldon of Denver , one of
the IIret to open up the rich deposits at
Johannesburg , South Africa. He says that
the Kansas rock Is strikingly similar to some
of the very richest finds in South Africa.
He pronounces tbo formation as being the
result of submarine volcanic eruption and
gives it as bis opinion that It was lifted
from the surface at the time the Rockies
were thrown up. This theory Is borne out
by the fact that shells and sharks' teeth are
found In the shale.
The new mill which the Orr syndicate Is
erecting at Denver will be a combination of
the fire and chemical processes of ere ro *
auction. The flro process will be used to re
duce the ere from the shale nnd then a
chemical treatment will be given the ere to
separate the gold from the zinc.
TENTH PENNSYLVANIA BOYS
Itcccptlon Committee Panne * Through
Omahn to Meet Them at
San Frnnclnco.
Tbo Pennsylvania committee- receive
the Tenth Pennsylvania regiment upon Its
arrival at San Francisco passed through
Omaha yesterday In a private car en-
route to the coast over the Union Pacific.
The people of Pennsylvania have raised
$50,000 to bring the regiment home and
give the boys a rousing reception. The
regiment will bo mustered out In San
Francisco , but the plan Is to keep the men
together until they reach Plttsburg. At
New Brighton , a short distance west of
Plttnburg , where they will toke 'breakfast ,
they will bo furnished with arms and ac
coutrements from the state depository.
Upon arriving at Pltt&burg they will march
to Shcnley park , where a fine program will
bo carried out.
Yesterday was the anniversary of the first
battle In which the regiment under com
mand of Major Hal Cuthbcrtson was en
gaged. It was the battle of Malotn , In
which the regiment lent eleven men. The
anniversary was observed by the commit
tee by appropriate exorcises In Its car.
The committee consists of State Senator
Charlm .Muehldronncr of Allegheny City ,
W. 13. Cuthbertson of Now Hrlghton ,
U. M. Cook of Cannonsburg , Jcslah
Wood of Wayncsburg , Luclen Clawson of
Orocnnburg , W. C. Leer of Greonsburg ,
J. A. Hcrron of Monongahela
City , George II. Cramer of Patterson , E. 0.
Christy and E. AV. Morland of Pittsburg.
Accompanying the committee are the fol
lowing newspaper men : H. J. Ford of the
Chronic-Telegraph , L. W. Stroyer of the
Commercial Gazette , n. W. Herbert of the
Times and No s , C. E. Locke of the Press ,
John Angun Mackayo of the Dispatch , all
of Plttsburg , C. W. Campbell of the Phila
delphia Enquirer and H. W. Mill. Jr. , of the
Grcensburg Press. The party Is In charge
of Charles Travers of the Chicago & North
western railroad and S. A. Myers of the
Union Pacific. The committee was met at
the depot by Mr. J. A. Wakcfleld of this
city , who la well acquainted with the
members , who come from his old stamping
ground.
The transport Senator , having on board
the Tenth Pennsylvania , Is expected to ar-
rlvo at San Francisco about August 3.
SHORT CUT 10 GREAT LAKES
Extension of Xorthtrentcrn Alone Old
< irnde from Dciilnoii to
The Beyer Valley branch of the Northwest
ern road , extending between Dcnlson nnd
Wall Lake , la. , a distance of twenty-five
miles , has been completed and passenger and
freight service has just been Inaugurated.
The towns on the new line are Delolt , Beyer
and Weed , and the country 'through ' which it
runs Is a patlcularly rich agricultural region.
The completion of this extension to Wall
Lake gives rise to the belief that rail's will
bo laid along the already constructed grade
from Denlson to Algono , and thus , bring
about a short cut from Omaha to St. Paul.
Under Union Pacific Control.
CHEYENNE , Wyo. , July 31. ( Special. )
The Union Pacific Hallway company has se
cured control of the new Wyoming Southern
railway. It Is stated that the Union Pacific ,
before entering into traffic arrangements
with the Wyoming Southern , Insisted upon a
five-year option upon all stock , and a simi
lar option giving the Union Pacific the privi
lege of redeeming the bonds In the same time
at par. The bonds were underwritten by the
International Trust company of Boston ,
whose officers state that agreements have
been signed with the Union Pacific. The
capitalization of the now company Is $2,000-
000 , half in bonds and the .balance in stock.
Much Utah Land Sold.
The Union Pacific land department reports
no cessation In the demand for lands situ
ated along the line of Its road. A big sale
haa Just been closed with T. U. Van Pelt ,
whereby he purchases 2,408 acres of Banner
county ( Nebraska ) land , which ho proposes
to use for a cattle ranch. Utah land Is In
especial demand. John H. White of Salt
Lake City has Just purchased 2,537 acres
near Salt Lake ; 3,039 acres of Summit
county ( Utah ) land has been sold to Forest
N. Stlllman , and W. J. Llndsey has come Into

III * Dead Hod- .
The dead body of J. E. Sampson was found
yesterday morning In his room at the Del-
lone hotel at about 11 o'clock. The ctiamber-
mald had been unable to get Into the room
at all Sunday , and yesterday morning , upon
finding the door locked ngaln , she called a
bell boy , who peered over the transom ,
only to see the dead body of the occupant
stretched on the bed.
The door was at once opened and the cor
oner notified. A bottle labeled "morphine"
told the tale. The dead man left .a letter to
his daughter , Miss Mamie Sampson , who
lives at Albany , Mo. , In which ho gives the
reason for taking his life. The letter Is as
follows :
OMAHA. Neb. , July , 'M. My Dear Darling -
ling Daughter : When you wlir have re
ceived this I will have passed Into the un
known from whence no traveler has ever
returned. The reason why I have committed
this act Is because Mrs. Ron" went back on
mo at the trying moment. She had prom
ised me to bo my wlfo for the last four
yeans and when I arrived home and found
she had deceived mo so 1 could not stand
the disappointment. Do not weep after me ,
but always remember , darling , that I died
for ono I loved. Bo n good girl. Afways
mind your Aunt Cena. Tell your Uncle Bob
to look after your Interests ; he will always
treat you right. Goodby , darling , I will
never see you again. Your papa ,
J. E. SAMPSON.
Ho also left a letter addressed to the
public which contained practically the earno
as the ono addressed to his daughter.
Very little Is known about the man at the
hotel. Ho came there Jury 7 and told the
clerk that he might remain there some time ,
ns he thought of going Into the stock busi
ness at South Omaha. Ho was a quiet , un
obtrusive man , and did not seem to bo en
gaged In any business. Ho called for his
mall dally , and that was about all that was
seen of him around the hotel.
Ho was acquainted with a stockman at
South Omaha by the name of M. D. Huston ,
who Is thought to know what arrangements
had been made by the dead man about going
Into business.
As the letter stated the reason for the
suicide , no Inquest will be held.
CITY HAS A COUNTER CLAIM
3IcnlN of City Prlnoncrn Have Not
llecn 1'nId For Jlrcniipc of
Trial EXIICIINCH.
In regard to the action of the County Com
missioners in Instructing the county attorney
to bring suit against the city for something
over $12,000 , claimed to bo duo for meals
furnished city prisoners at the county Jair ,
City Comptroller Westberg says that the
claim is probably a Just one. It has never
been paid because the city had a counter
claim against the county for the expenses
of police court trials and the services of
officers and detectives In connection with
state cases , the prosecution of which Is the
duty of the county. The comptroller has
repeatedly asked the council to allow him
extra help for the purpose of going over the
pollco court records and ascertaining the
exact amount of the city's claim , but the
council has never acceded. Consequently it
has been impossible to render an account
against the county. Comptroller Westberg
believes that the claim of the city , it
figured out , would bo greater than that of
the county against the city , but he has no
means of knowing Just how much It Is. It Is
possible that the matter may bo brought to
the attention of the council and some plan
adopted by which the suit may be averted.

Washington soundings are being made west
of the federal building to determine whether
It will'be necessary to drive piles upon which
to put the foundation for the new building ,
specifications for which are being prepared.
It Is generally believed that the present
building should have had plfcs under it ,
which would have prevented the unexpected
sinking of the structure. The sinking has ,
however , been so nearly uniform all around
an not to work any serious damage. It Is
probable that no changes wilt be taken in
the construction of the new building.
POWELL LOSES HIS ROLL

Pocket.
Tony Powell , an Italian fruit vender Hy
ing at 312 North Tenth street. I * mourn
ing the loss of A roll containing $145. Peter
Proclpll , another Italian , Is languishing In'
the city Jail at "present " to ivwolt an ex
amination Into matters that Implicate him
cllghtly with the missing of the money.
Powell tells the police that some one
entered his house Saturday night and took
1
his trousers from the room to the porch j
and extracted from the pocket thereof a I I
roll of bills with a rubber band around It.
In the roll there -were seven $10 bills and | i
an old $20bill. . I
The complainant states that Proclpll came
to his place last week and said that ho was |
hard up and did not have money enough to
pay for a night's lodging. Powell opened i
his heart and homo and asked the stranger
to otop with him. That night Powell i
missed a $20 bill , but found It later. In
looking for the money , however , ho had
occasion to Hash his roll and ho says
that Proclpll took a good look at It.
When Proclpll was placed under nrrest
$550 was found on his person. Ho told the
police the reason he had so much cash about
him wna owing to the fact that he had been
In business In Webster City , la. , and had
burned out. The cash represented what he
had obtained from the Insurance company.
When the money was examined , seven $10
bills and an old $20 bill wore found bunched
together. Powell says he would not swear
that the money was his , but Is of the opin
ion that It Is.
Proclpll will be detained until word can
be received from Webster City and from
Storm Lake , where ho sayo ho has been
stopping for some time. Another suspicious
circumstance connected with the matter IB
that Proclpll Is unable to account for but
about $400 of the money In his possession.
FLOOR COVERING YANKED UP
Dlnpiite Over the < ) wtierlili > of Some
Carpet Cannen Kzcltcmciit
In n Hotel.
Sergeant Whalen was called down to the
Brunswick hotel Sunday afternoon about 2
o'clock upon a report that the carpets ol
that hostelry were bolng forcibly removed
from the floor by a gang of mon. When he
arrived ho found several floors denuded ol
their wonted covering , the air was flllod with
particles of flying dust and the elevator
shaft was piled full of carpets. There was
excitement In the air nnd wild gesticulation
and angry words passing to and fro. As
far as the sergeant was enabled to untangle
the complicated trouble he ascertained that
there has been some difficulty between the
present proprietor of the hotel and a
former one. It seems that the man In pos
session purchased the carpets In the house
from the ono who formerly ran it. He
claims that ho paid JlfiO down and prom
ised to pay the remainder at a future date.
The original owner got in a hurry for his
money , but it was not forthcoming , so he
[ hired a number of mon Sunday and went
to the hotel and began operations. The
carpets were yanked from the floor In short
order , notwithstanding the remonstrances o ]
the Irate landlord. Sergeant Whalen poured
oil on the troubled waters and a Sabbath
quiet soon reigned again after he had com
manded the men to cease work.

wo aim to bo discrcot and so roudor it un
