CALEDONIA.

This mine Is still closed, and nothing
will be doing in 1t till 1t gets out Of Its
present state Of bankruptcy. Last
March the stock sold for $l5 and $40
per share. but now it will not sell at
all. indeed it is apparently found not
worth quoting IN the stock list. The
Occidental Is \ good mine, neverthe-
less, and will come out all right some
day.

Quoted, rs usual, In the lower mine,
with no orc developments. The pres

what's the matter with the stock just
now.

During the past two or three weeks
much better orc than usual has been

both mill and mine betokens efficient
and judicious management.

DANEY.
The new shaft Is nov completed to
the depth Of 800 feet, and drifting In
the direction of the old shaft will be
commenced next week. where there Is
known to be \ fine body Of rich ore.
The drift will strike so feet below the
bottom OF the old shaft, and has about
200 feet to run In order to do SO.
VIRGINIA CONSOLIDATED.
The west drift is still increasing Its
length In that direction. 1t has not
yet cut vein matter, but will before
long. Something good In the way of
ore developments should be encoun-
tered by it at that point In the Com
stock ledge.
SIERRA NEVADA.
The general appearance Of this mine
continues to improve, giving a better
Weld and inducing a consequent rise
In the stock. No special new ore de-
velopments to report.
