Walter Scott, the Mysterious Death Valley miner, accompanied by his wife, arrived la Ogdea last night and la regtxlerqd at the Reed hotel. Mr. Scott, who is familiarly Itausa aa Scotty, la en route to bis mining property In California, after aa extended visit In New York and the east. A representative of thla paper waa given a must cordial welcome by the brawny and sturdy westerner. Jovial, and an all good He talked enlertainlujfly of his recent eastern trip and of some of his experience in the mining region of California. Among other things that tba fanned and hardy son of tha Golden West brought back from the east, la a couple oP rlflea, a product of tba Krupp rectory of Essen, which ha pilxei most highly. The gua has a box magazine holding five, eight millimetre sheila and is one of the best pieces of flies nn turned out by the foreign factory. The weapon la a most formidable looking one, and with ita soft nose bullet would make havoc at a good many hundred yards' distance. When questioned about his California mining Interests, Beott stated that he has been east, ordering machinery for a reduction plant, which will be erected at his mine la the Death Valley country. Tha nature of tha ora lakes from tha mine, he aald, la and has to be treated by the rotating process.

The conversation then drifted to local conditions and Mr. Scott said that thia was one of the several visits he had paid Ogden, but this visit would ha the longest one. 11a said he had heard so much about Ogden and her beautiful canyon that he had determined upon visiting it with Mrs Beott today. lie also paid a tribute to the Junction city, her nugnlllclent streets and tha prosperous conditions be had noted in the business section of the city. After several days' visit In the city, Mr. and Mrs. Beott will leare for Los Angeles, where he will arrange to receive and send the machinery to the mi no.

Well Known Producer Views tha Fu- ture With Optimism. N. U Amiter, president of tha Boston A Corbin company, Shannou and a Arizona Commercial, lias made study of tha topper situation, and, in spite of apprehension and pessimism that prevail, he takes a rather optimistic view. Duriug the past few day I have takes patna to Interview some of tha largest producing and consuming 4a the coper trade in aa endeavor to Inform myself accurately concerning the copper alt uatlun, says Aa a result of my inMr. Ameter. vestigations, I am led to the conviction, that, at the present time, Vbile the convuniptkm of copper has slackened up a bit, the decrease la fully compensated by the declining production. Butte and Arlxona. two of the greatest copper camps In thia country, era tudya considerably behind their output figures of a year ago. Thera seen is lo be more apprehension regarding the stability of the cupper Industry than la warranted by the facts, it cannot be denied that copper la accumulating In a small way in the hands of tbe producer, but this situation is met by tbe poverty of supplies in the hands of the manufacturer. The accumulation of surplus storks, concerning which no much la beard. Is no more then would ordinarily he carried by the consuming Interests, but today, instead of the consumers carrying their stocks, the producers themselves are carry ing them. The greatest bugbear that estate today la the uncertainty which exists in the minds of the copper buyers an to whether or not, having made a good slxud purchase of copper, iha producing Interests will protect them by refusing .to make Mies at low prices later on. The copper consumers are today more anxious to nee a niable market at 18 cents, at 20 rents, jic even nt 25 cents, than they are to s a fluctuating market from 20 cents down to 15 rents and back again. One of the largest consumers In rhls country told nie yesterday that he was perfectly willing to buy copper In large quantities at 20 cents a pound, or even at higher figures, providing the producers would stand together and not later on demoralise the whole lituaMon by naming a lower figure to some one else, 'There are several important factors in the copper situation which are not generally reckoned with. In the first place, it ts costing anywhere from 1 rent to I cents a pound more tn market copper than It did five or six years aao, and furthermore, the great producing mines of today are steadily exhausting their underground supplies their raw material as it were, and the producers of the metal are today Justly entitled tn demand at least 6 cents a pound mure for the red metal than was the case five or ten years FARMS OP BOXES OF PLES BEING SHIPPED. THOUSANDS The people of France are hcglming to realise that they have their own problem of women and child labor. The government sto Unties upon the subject are attracting attention, and the newspapei a are treating the matter aa a aerivus prulilsnt. President Judd of the State HortL are cultural Board and his busy tnese daya with the task which Utah's exhibit at tba Fifteenth National Irrigation Congress has Imposed upon them. Yesterday they got together a great mass of all' kind a uf tancy decorations and exhibits, which were boxed and shipped out en a special car last night. Aa entire car. was used for the shipment, and upon its arrival at Sacramento, a number of expert decorators will be ready to put all b place. President Judd preceded the car by if hours and will rare for the 1 stalUttoa of the exhibit. Last year, at BoIm, tbe Utah booth was the moat handsomely decorated of the lot, and to this vmditiun, as much as to the fins display of fruit, waa due the capturing of the cup. President Judd does well to profit by that experience, for every dollar Invested la decorations will bring a fourfold reward. Most of the frnlt and other products have all been put In shape and are now la cold storage In thia city, Whfcn the time arrives, they will be shipped la a special iced car to the congress. Utah will be well represented la the expoeltlon with all kinds of fruits, vegetables and farm products, not forgetting tbe canned tomato exhibit with Hon. Fred J. Klesel's 9500 trophy. A feature of the exhibit thia year, and one that waa lacking at the exposition at Boise last year, will be the mining exhibit All efforts have been made, and are still being put forth, to make tbe Sacramento exhibit of Utah's resources eclipse the splendid exhibit at tbe Irrigation Com gross In Boise last year. ASSOCIATION Bringing Vegetables In Good Price the Market The disposal of forest and farm s products at prices this season, In this section of tlis country, is encouraging, with good certainly promise of growing belter as the season advances. Wni. T. Miller, a prosperous and farmer of Syracuse, Davis county, has just disposed, of 8.000 boxes of apples through the office of Blackman and Griffin, and 10,000 more boxes in that neighborhood have Just been contracted for. The varieties are mainly the Jonathan and Ben Davis two guod commercial seller!. An actual test made of Mr. Miller's apples showed that 98 per cent of them were free from worms, a condition, almost Ideal, brought about by intelligent spraying. Thi-potatoes are bringing a good price, and are tn auch demand that it la not unlikely that the supply will prove Inadequate. A few daya ago Mr. Miller shipped two carloaJs of choice potatoes to Rawlings, Wya, one to Rook Springs, and one to Ely, Nevada, reallxlug a handsome profit by their sale. Wagon loads are being disposed of In thia per huncity by peddlers for dred pounds. Cabbage, too, raised in thia vicinity le finding favor with outside markets, and la being shipped in enrioad lota to different part of the Union. The shipping outlook for perishable garden and orchard stuff la not so bright, owing to the interruption in the telegraphic service. The shipping season for these products should have commenced on the 20th Of this month, but because tbe avenues for following up and taking care of these shipments are practically cloned to both consignor and consignee, there is a hesitancy In making shipments of perishable products. On the whole, the prospects of a big clean-u- p in fruits and vegetables never looked better for Weber and contiguous couutles. , first-clas- 91-5- INELIGIBLE 0 AS CITIZENS.

Although by order of Senator T. C Platt," the remains of Lx Lora 8. Baker, supposed to have been buried in tbe cemetery at Big Rapids, Mich., were not to be exposed to view, James Donovan, once a rich lumberman, formerly of Big Rapids, now living in Chicago, succeeded today in having the grave opened and the startling declaration now la made that the grave had been opened before, and that quick lima and other chemicals had been used to obliterate the features iff the body In the casket. Further, It is ssserted by Donovan and Pinkerton detectives that careful measurement of the coffin's contents show them not to be Bakers remains. They charge that the face In tbe coffin waa treated with wax to resemble Baker's when It waa shipped to Big Rapids and that on the small piece of glaea through which (he face could be dimly seen, waa pasted thia notice; Glass not to be remaved from face, by order of T. C. Platt, president of United Rtatea Express company; president Tioga Lumber company and Tioga National bang and founder and controller of Northern National bank of Big Rapids, Mich. Donovan, who lost heavily In the failure of the Northern National bank, of which Baker waa cashier, has for years Insisted that Baker was alive and that Senator Platt was a party to tha deception cf his alleged death. It la claimed that Baker under another name now has charge' of certain of Senator Platt's lumber Interest and that he sailed for Europe throe daya before the date of hla supposed death In New Yory City, years ago, from where the coffin containing tha body was shipped to Big Rapid by the United 8tates Express company, of which Senator Platt la president. Not the least Interesting part of Donovan's pursuit of Baker and his effort to show Senator Platts alleged part la the plot Is the declaration that Baker Introduced the aged senator to Mae Wood, who ia suing him for divorce, and also to Carrie Thompson, who later became the wife of Mr. Platt, thus complicating Platts matrimonial troubles. Donovan declares that Baker went from Big Rapids to Chicago and there met Carrie Thompson when she waa a member of the Black Crook An intimate knowledge of Platt'e susceptibility suggested to Baker the ides of taking Miss Thompson east and Introducing her to Platt. It Is claimed that Baker waa last seen in Honolulu a few years after hie supposed death, and that on account of his knowledge of the affairs of the Northern National In tha failure of which about 92.000,000 waa Involved and which ruined many hundreds ff small and large depositor. Senator Platt and others were interested In having him thought dead. The plan started, Donovan asserts. In the use of a dummy body a waxed face and a coffin ao constructed that those who attended the funeral at tha residence of G. F. Stearns, on North State street. Big Rapids, were easily deceived. Now that the body has been exhumed, Donovan says he will continue In New York the fight he baa waged for years to prove that Baker s alive and to bring Justice upon several persons who have directed the plan for the gross deception. He will be by Mrs. Baker, who, although she had obtained a divorce at the time of the supposed death, waa denied the privilege of kissing the face of her former husband or of seeing fc exposed to near view at the time of the funeral. Donovan now says positively that this request was denied by conspirator, who knew that tha body was not Baker 'a From a detective who scoured this count r. and Europe for the missing man. Donovan says he learned that Baker lived in New York City as A. Carpenter, an attorney, and A. L. Faster, a financier of tbe frenzied kind. cgm-pan- y. d I in - ' Deception. j.
