BELT LINE OPENED.

The Scranton Traction company ran
Its first car over the new SHETLAND
street belt line Saturday afternoon.
Car 107 made the trial trip, which proved
satisfactory in every respect. Satur-
day and all day yesterday the West
Side bound cars were all run over the
new line. The new system Is perfect.
Schedule time was observed, the time
taken to make the extra stretch being
made up In the time formerly lost in
switch waiting. The intersection at
the corner of Main avenue and jackson
street is not Of the best. A spring latch
and new roadbed will remedy the in
convenience.

New York, Feb. 7.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade, which issues
tomorrow. will say:
The wonderful success of the popular
loan alters the face of events. The inf1u-
ence of this event upon all manufacture
ing and all trade cannot be lightly esti-
mated. 1t strips the silver agitation of
all it's power to hurt. 1t puts the treas
ury on a safe basis for the time, whether
congress does anything useful or rot. 1t
notifies foreign nations that the United
States have power as well as purpose.
1t unlocks millions of gold which have
been gathered in preparation, brings di-
rectly several millions in gold from
Europe and stimulates the anxiety of for
eign investors to obtain American Securi-
ties.
With such a revolution in business sud-
denly effected, the customary records of
the past week and months are of less
value than usual
Speculation has raised copper to 1O14
cents. with sales of six million pounds
and tin to 1872 cents, and lead to 80,
with large exports of Mexican.
Sales of wool have been 4,566,200 pounds
against 2,150 last year and S,6o6,.15 in
1885 The orders for wooden goods are
still unusually delayed.
Speculation in wheat has again lifted
prices. although western receipts have
been 2800907 for the week, against 992,-
291 last year, and for the year thus far
15,O67. $50 bushels against 6,039,9SS last
year. Atlantic exports have been increas-
ing, though not in the same proportion,
amounting for the week. flour included to
l. 65. 956 bushels, against 1,45S,255 last
year. The speculative market has been
influenced by rumors of injury 10 the
coming crop and by foreign advicas, and

BUSINESS, MINING AND STOCKS
STRIKE IN THE AJAx.
Ore Running High in Gold and
Well in Silver and Lead.

Ore Running High in Gold and
Well in Silver and Lead.
Yesterday morning Henry M. Ryan
received letter from Superintendent
Ed Stewart, of the Ajax mine, which
conveyed the pleasing intelligence that
new strike had just been made in
this property, and that a mining car
of the ore had been sampled and as
sayed which went $3.50 in gold, Is
ounces silver and % per cent. lead to
the ton.
The new find was made in one of
the adits being driven from the main
tunnel level, and as the discovery was
in virgin ground, it is believed that
when followed I'D and developed a
large body of high grade ore will be
uncovered.
The Ajax has a most promising fu-
ture before it. It has passed the stage
when it could be called q prospect, and
can now be dignified by the title of a
mine. It is a second Mammoth in en-
bryo, and as great as the Mammoth
has been in the past it is just now in
its prime, which means for the Ajax
many years in which to yield up it's
wealth of ore.
The Mammoth mine has made Tintic
district famous in years gone by and
mas PAID the handsome sum of 81, 040,-
900 in dividends; but, from all appear
ances. the Ajax will add lustre to this
record.
The Ajax has been making regular
ore shipments of late, but the three
carloads received yesterday were of
higher grade than previous consign-
ments. This fact. taken in connection
with the new strike above mentioned.
should be good news TO Ajax stock
holders, who will be happy when
summer comes again"

EAST OF THE atERCUR.
Predicts the Existence of Rich, But
UndeveIoped Mines.

One of the best indications that we
know of that the Golden Gate contin-
ues on it's regular dip into the east
ern hills, says the AIercur Mercury. is
the fact that General Manager Robin
son of the De Lamar mines, who IN
doubtedly is acquainted with the con-
ditions which exist in the Golden Gate
mine, is willing to take an interest in
the East Golden Gate. Mr.. Robinson's
reputation as a mining man as we'll
as an honest, conscientious gentleman,
is of the best in every respect. He is
regarded as the leading mine manager
in the west, and no inducements could
be sufficient to persuade him to con-
meet himself with any property which
he did not believe to have honest merit
superintendent Kislingbury also, who
is intimately acquainted with every
ore body in the great De Lamar bo-
nanza, is willing to stake his reputa-
ton and money on the country lying
east. This paragraph is not written
to bull the stock Of the East Golden
Cate, but to point out one of the
straWs which indicate that in the coun-
try lying east of the Mercur, Golden
Gate, Hecla, Seal and Rover, exist I'M
developed mines as rich and perhaps
richer than any now known.

EnREIGN FINANCES.

Posts London financial cablegram:
One hundred and eighty-fve thous-
and pounds of gold was withdrawn
from the Bank of England for Amer
lea today, but in bars instead of
eagles. The banks price on bars be
ing high, tomorrow's shipments will
probably be only 100000 pounds.
The features of today's market was a
further revival in Kaffirs. There was
good buying but the movement is rath-
er difficult to understand amid much
that should tend to depress the shares.
The other markets were idle and easier
on reaIizations in view of the settle

CINNIBAR IN THE RAVEN.
Discovery That Causes Joy In the
bacI-Dutton Camp.

n discovery Ihat causes JOY IN the
characterization Camp.
Theodore Bruback and A. J. Dutton
of this city. have bond on the Raven
group of claims in Camp Floyd dis
trict that joins the Hillside property
on the north. The group is being de-
veloped by shaft which is now down
a depth of seventy-five feet in what
was supposed to be black shale. Thurs
day night Mr. Dutton came in from
Mercur, but before starting he picked
up several pieces of the shale to bring
in with him. Yesterday, in examining
this rock it was discovered that in
spots it was glazed with cinnabar, and
that the shale was streaked with hard
places, which, after a close examina-
ton, appeared to be ore.
This discovery is a most important
one, as the appearance of cinnabar has
always indicated the near presence of
a large body of pay ore, and as this is
the first discovery of cinnabar that has
been made between Mercur and Sun
shine, the find is regarded as one of
the most important ones yet made in
that portion of the district.
An assay of the rock will be made
at an early day to determine whether
it is shale or ore, and if it is found
that pay dirt is near, the Raven will
cease its croaking evermore.

New York, Feb. 7.-Today's stock
market was quite irregular. The vol
ume of business was on about the
same scale as yesterday. and Sugar
and st. Paul were again the leaders
in point of activity, although there
was today a disparity of over 10000
shares between them, in favor of the
first mentioned stock. Lower London
prices for Americans and free foreign
selling here again eXerted a depressing
influence upon the local speculation.
The dealings were for the most part
governed by the professional leaders,
whose tactics were more clearly evil

was good investment buying Of some
of the other railroad stocks and par
ticularly of the shares of the corn
