SAN Francisco, SATURDAY MORNING.
December LIST, 1866. I
The money market remains easy, and
the demand for local business purposes
falls considerably short of the supply.
We may safely remark a general in
creas of deposits in Savings Banks as
well as in the other banking institutions
of our city. Accommodations, on good
6rst-class business paper, are readily
obtained at lf@l3 y cent. per month
in Bank, and mortgage loans are freely
made by the Savings Bank at It 5T3 cent.
per month.
The recent very material advance in
the more prominent mining shares has
been well maintained. We have en-
couraging news from nearly all the
companies whose shares constitute the
business of the Board, and it is said that
at no previous period did the Comstock
lode yield so largely as at present. In
most instances, so far as we have been
able to ascertain, the bullion returns for
the month Of November will exceed the
October yield.
Crown Point was in the market to a
limited extent during the past week
opening at $3.50, seller 30, advancing to
S9O5, buyer 80, improving to 5000
9l5, and closing at $1,000, seller 80.
During the week ending November 23d,
1913 tons of ore were extracted from the
mine, l54 tons of which were taken
from the fourth station; previous week,
597 tons were raised. On the fourth
level, in going north, the vein is said to
be about 81 feet wide, and a breast 20
feet south from the vein shows IL feet
of ore. The ore from these points
averages from S3S to $40 per ton The
east drift from the fourth station is in
about 90 feet and runs in vein matter.
The receipts of bullion for the month
Just closed are estimated at Sl00, 900.
1t is yet too early to obtain the exact
figures.
Yellow Jacket was dealt in at $4,000
$40, huctuated between S940@960, then
sold at 81, 900, and closed ut Sl,l75, S.
80. This company, it is said, have con-
cluded to forward II weekly letter to the
office in this city, and the regular
monthly balance sheet as usual. 1t is
said that in drifting east from the winze
in the lower level, south mine, after
penetrating the main body of ore and 40
feet of loose, barren quartz, Il second
body of rich ore was found, the extent
of which has not been ascertained.
In the north mine, they are 20 feet from
the ledge. At the Morgan mill, $500
tons of ore have been accumulated.
Empire Mill met with small sales,
opening at $3.50, then selling at Sl26@
l2S and again al $50, and at the close
Sl35 is bid. This mine continues to
yield as usual, and we hear it from good
authority that a dividend of $40 per
share is likely to be declared for the
present month.
Imperial receded from SIPS to SIG
5O@lll, then sold at Sill so, improved
to SIPS, and closed at SIPS. Up to the
