James Jackman is working on the Pay
 master mine near Cerbat.
 We understand that the Keystone mil
 will start up some time during the cominG
 week. There Is no reason in the world why
 this mill should not be running all the veal round, for there is ore enough i'll the Key stone mine alone to keep it running, and ore that will pay well, too. We want to sec fifty or hundred men put at woIk on that mine.
 Isaac Conkey is working for Patterson on the Fl Dorado mine at Gold Basin.
 Stephen Smith is hard at work on his claims near Sherum's Peak and taking out quite lot of ore.

 The gold fever in Lower California has been shorter lived than the hist Jrical Frazer river and Cariboo settlements. It lasted scarcely month and has brought wealth t0 none of the adventurous prospectors who endured many hardshipS to reach the deso- late region that was as destitute of gold as of water and food. This case only points the moral that the prospectOr who goes on forlorn hope cannot be too we'll provided wi6h money and supplies.-San Francisco Chronicle.
 W.J Belden and J. J. Hyde have loca- ted the northwest extension of the new bo- nanza on the Chloride trail and have called it the Early Dawn.

moderately active and only small gor-
ton of the decline in prices was recovered.
The eastern markets were without material
change. The receipts of product were
comparatively light and shipments of all
kinds were not sc large as during
the previous DAYS of the week. Shipping
eemand only fair, and orders chiefly for
small quantities. The market for mess
pork showed considerable activity, but the
feeling was greatly unsettled, especially
about noon. The offerings were few
throughout the day, while the demand was
active. Operators appeared to be trans
ferring their contracts ahead, and the trade
in the more deferred deliveries is increas-

The market opened quite strong, and
prices were advanced 5@1Oc, but the
offerings, were largely increased, causing
decidedly weaker feeling and resulting in
a gradual reduction of 55@65c on the
whole range. Toward the close the feeling
was little stronger, though prices fiuctu-

steady. Shipping demand moderate.

at $14. 5212 sellers. The net decline of the
day in this market is 15@ 2715c.
The inquiry for lard was quite active
and the offerings were liberal. At the open
ing the market was stronger and prices
we're advanced 21l93c per 100 pounds.
The offerings, however, exceeded the de-
mand, and weaker feeling set in accom-
panied with a reduction IN prices of 15a

a steadier feeling prevailed, and prices raj
lied 9l0c, and closed comparatively
steady. Shipping demand moderate. Cash
in fair request and quotable at $8.SO9 8.95.
September and October, as in pork, were
the favorite options. July and August
