OF Mining Stock Board met again yesterday,
MIR. S. ". King in the chair. There were sew
cral present who arc interested in the project.

prise would sustain such an institution-tIlat
now was the time to organize, for if there was d
delay, ST. Louis or Kansas City, or
some other sccond-class town would establish a
Board, and then Chicaco's opportunity TO con-
troll the mines III tue West would be gone. It
