of copper cop-per bearing claims adjoining those of the Dixie at SL George this State yesterday yes-terday passed into the hands of a syndicate syn-dicate composed of Park City Tintic and Salt Lake investors and that the proposition is now headed for a position among the most prominent In the State appears reasonably well assured The purchasing crowd Js certainly for anldablo as any that has been organized for the exploitation of Utah territory including as it does David Keith presl dent anJ Thomas Kearns general manager of the great Silver King of Park City James Ivors a director of the same company William ITatlleld of the Grand Central and John C Sullivan Sulli-van oC the Raymond I of Tintic and Henry Newell of the Quincy of Park City In the transaction the crowd receives re-ceives 251000 of a t total of DOOOOO at which the Surprise Is capitalized and for which it 1 shelled out 12 J cents a share or 31875 all of which is now aicstling In the pockets of George Adams the wellknoun lumberman of Eureka The trade In which the keenest keen-est interest was manifested by mining men throughout tho day was promoted toy Messrs Hatfield and Sullivan who recently made an examination of the group and who commended It as capable capa-ble of as great possibilities as those that have been achieved at the Dixie from which highgrade copper bullion is be Arur MtrviHIlv forwarded That the Surprise has been taken hold of by so prominent a crowd cannot but stimulate interest In the zone to which t f the sensational performances of the Dixie hae so long drawn attention and the outlook for it Is today most assuring assur-ing The bullion record of the Surprise reveals that It has already marketed ores containing as much as 37 per cent copper while the vein into which a shaft has been dropped to a depth of 303 feet Is Identical In all its characteristics character-istics with that of the Dixie which adjoins ad-Joins it on the north It Is the intention inten-tion of the new crowd to begin a systematic syste-matic opening up of it from the bottom of the shaft and to that end a force of men will be organized at once In the meantime It is learned that the representatives of a strong Eastern syndicate have jpst secured an option on the Paymaster group In the same locality and that developments under the bond are tobe inaugurated In a short time The latter were represented
