silver during the week, though caused
largely by the purchases of India and
China, has had perhaps an appreciable
effect in preventing an even more gen
eral distrust in the future. The weakness
in lead has not been without an ill effect.
The ores now being received are sill
cious, some leads, iron and small
amount. of copper. In spite of the de-
pressing conditions the statement of car
load receipts shows an increase of sixteen
cars of, ore and of thirty-fve cars of coal.
Coke and limestone show falling off of
six to four cars respectively, making
total net increase for the week of forty.

sAND1A GOLD.
There is considerable excitement de-
veloping over gold disc0yeries which
have been made by different people IN
the mountains east of Albuquerque. Not
much is being said by those Immediately
interested in the new finds, but every day
the number of people who quietly come
and go between the city and the Sandals
increases.
IOO MUCH WATER.
The damage to mining and other prop
erty by the recent flood, in the vicinity of
Kingston, is estimated at from $4,000 to
$4,000. 1t is said all the mines are more
or less damaged, many shafts and tun-
nels being filled up. A breast of water
twelve feet high passed through the box
canon between that place and Hills
ANOTHER DRY WASHER.
A dry washer is being constructed at
the Albuquerque foundry, after the model
of f. E. McKinley's patent, from which
big results are expected. It is claimed
that with this machine the dry placers in
different gold fields of New Mexico can
be successfully worked, and F. E. Nc
Kinley, A. w. Jones, j. G. Baldridge and
D. L. Sammis comprise the company,
which will dem onstrate the virtue of the
invention. If this washer works as sue
cessfully as anticipated, there will be a
fortune in it for south Santa Fe county
placer ground claimants.
NEW CORPORATION. J..

The rich gold quartz and placer dis

shape for busy season of work. The

0} BAD POLICY.
AT Socorro, N. M, last week smelter
employees went out on strike because Of
a reduction of wages. What is more they
