THE ALTA

The great break in Alta has been the
leading topic in stock circles for the
EAST week. The San Francisco and
Comstock papers aver hat it was a
magnificent swindle in which the Cook
Brothers sailed their friends without
mercy. The Cooks, on the contrary.
say they have not sold a share of their
stock and never advised any one to
buy a share. They claim to have faith
in the mine and propose to stay by it.
Seth Cook was interviewed by a reporter
of the Stock Exchange. He felt badly
over the abuse that had been heaped
upon him, (guess he can stand it If he
got away with the pooh and
declared that there was not a
word of truth in the state
ments that he had proven false to
his friends or any body else. Experts
visited the mine, were pleased with its
prospects, and their purchases semitic
stock up. He had not money enough
