THE REPORT A FAKE.
The Sale of Oil Wells at Casper, Wy
oming, Denied.

Casper, Wy, Dec. 15.-The reported
sale of the Pennsylvania Oil and Gas
company's property here. consisting of
all the oil land. wells. drilling appar-
atus and large refinery, is denied by
representatives of the company in this
city. 1t is true that such a purchase
has been contemplated by the Cudahy
people, but no such sale has been made,
nor is one likely to be made.
The proposition to lay pipe line to
Omaha at an expense of 81, 900, 000
when viewed in a practical manner,
seems absurd. At the present rate of
production ii would require the entire
output of the wells for SO years at IS
per barrel to pay for such a line, and,
adding interest and cost of operation
it would take at least 100 years to get
even.
President McCalmort of the
Pennsylvania company denies having
any knowledge of the sale and had
never been advised that a sale was
pending. Mr.. McCalmont has been the
resident manager of the company for
a number of years. and it does not
seem reasonable that such a deal has
been consummated without his knowl-
edge. A majority of the people here
look upon the report as a fake, which
was sent out for the purpose of pro-
noting a few personal interests.

ALL FOR HERSELF.
Propositions That Canada Should
Have a Representative In This
Country.

New York, Dec. ia Washington
special to the Sun says:
1t is the opinion of many public men
at the capital that the approaching
visit of Sir Richard Cartwright. the
prime minister of Canada, to Washing
ton and Canton will be followed by an
arrangement to have here a permanent
representative of the Dominion govern
ment. Mr.. Laurier, the present prime
minister, it is said, regards il as quite
as important to have an agent in
Washington as TO have one in London,
because Sir Julian Pauncefote is re-
quired to attend to the business of
Great Britain and all her colonies and
cannot devote the time and the atten-
tion to the interests of Canada that
their growing Importance deserves. 1t
has been proposed several times in
Canada TO ask from the. crown the APP
pointment of a special envoy to the
United States who shall have nothing
to do but attend TO the business of
Canada. Such an agent would be re-
ceived by the president and recognized
by the department of state in the reg
ular manner and it is believed that
efforts To secure the appointment of
conspicuous Canadian for this duty
are already il progress The envoy
would be selected and paid by the Do
miniOn government, but would bear
a commission and credentials from
Queen Victoria.
The president-elect has never made a
public announcement of his views on
the Canadian question. His intimate
friends are not so reticent. and from
their utterances it is inferred that ne
will cheerfully meet the Canadians
half way in negotiations to promote
the friendship and commerce of the
two tr-ia Of
controversy between Canada and the
United States are: Customs dues at
the border; the bonded car privilege
upon Canadian railways which obtain
much of their traffic from the United
States: the enlargement and control
of the waterways: the rights and priv
ileges of fisheries in both the lakes and
the ocean and quarantine regulations.
The prime minister of Canada has de-
clared his Willingness TO throw al
these questions into the same pot" as
Mr.. Blaine once suggested. and settl.
them together. He is willing to wipe
out all the custom houses on the Dor
der. to give American fishermen and
Canadian fishermen the same rights
and privileges. and grant American
capitalists concessions to improve the
canals and navigable channels on the
Canadian side of the border on equal
terms with the citizens of his own
country. provided that the government
of the United States will do the same.
In other words, Mr.. Laurier would
like to make the commercial relations
between the United States and Canada
in all respects as free as they are be-
tween the states of this union. This
is what he means when he uses the
term commercial union and if his
scheme were carried out, the result
would be equivalent to commercial an
nexation.

The Annandale.

One of the most promising prospects
in Tintic district that is almost sur
rounded by big paying mines is the
Annandale. which joins the Centennial
Eureka mine on the southwest on the
Mammoth side of the mountain, and
it is claimed by many who are familiar
with the formation of the district that
this ground lies on an extension of the
ore BODY that has made the C.-E. so
famous as a great dividend paver
During the past Jews months Messrs.
J. Z. Oglesby. j. L. Yundt and L. b.
Gorhan have been al work in the de-
Velopment of this property. A shaft
has been sunk on the ledge on this
ground and at a depth of only % feet
body of copper pyrites has been en-
oounteredSand everything indicates the
near presence of a deposit of ore
The gentlemen who are interested in
the DEVELOPMENT of this claim are
highly elated over the showing made,
and they feel confident that with depth
it will open out into a good producer

1t is the intention to push work all
winter in opening no the Annandale

workings will disclose a fine body of

The stock market was firm yesterday
and in the pit of the mining. exchange
prices ruled high and some sharp adj
vances were noted, and especially so
in the dividend paying shares or in
those which had good prospective indi-
cations. And, yet, although the bo-
vine element ruled The call, but few
transfers were made.
Ajax was buoyant in the bidding,
and scored good advances. DAILY was
steady at s. bid, but none of the stock
was offered. Daily West. the near
neighbor of the DAILY, was strong and
advanced in the bidding and the offer

Ontario was quite active in the bid

The unlisted stocks were also frisky

Nanced to $1.65 asked. Northern Light
held its own as a favorite with the
brokers and made advances in the bid
ding as well as in the offerings. Sun
beam made noted gains and the signs
OF the times would indicate that this
stock would make steady gains from
this tin,e on.
Sacramento displayed considerable
activity and was ready seller at AZ

ACTIVITY AT MERCUR.
The Old Fever Is on Again and the
Camp Is Getting Red Hot.

From a gentleman who is Just in
from Mercur il is learned that the old
fever is breaking out there again, and
that it Will be a hot camp this winter,
with indications that the activity will
be greater than it was a year ago. and
especially so on the western slope,
where it is said that at least 500 men
are employed at the present time doing
assessment work or development work.
or in building houses and making i'm
DroVementS
According to The Herald's informant
there is not an idle carpenter in the
district, and it is difficult for the rail-
road and the dealers to supply the
4 demand for lumber; and as for teams
and saddle horses, it is hard to get
them unless they are ordered day or
two in advance.
In the city of Mercur there is re-
newed activity and the residents of the
camp are beginning to brighten up
after the siege of dullnesS that il has
had the past summer and it begins to
look as If the winter would be an eX-
ceedingly lively one throughout the
district, and il can be said that the
recent valuable finds in the western
foothills is largely responsible for this
pleasing state of affairs, as now more
prospecting is going on all over the
camp than there has been for six
months past.
Three months ago the west dip was a
deserted portion of the camp. Now 1t is
full of life, and it is said that build
inss of all descriptions are springipg
up in all directions over the slope and
the finds that are being made lead to
the belief that within a year several
big mines and mills will be in active
operation there.
The late decision of Judge Street in
the Tough Nut VS.. Songbird case has
had stirring effect on many of the
claim holders of the camp and a large
number of them are filing amended
notices of location in order that they
may be safe in their possessions.
In this connection it is said that

THE HIGHLAND BOY.
Company Incorporated Under the
Laws of New JERSEY.

The Herald stated a few weeks ago
that it was the purpose of the recent
purchasers of the Henry NJ. group OF
mines at the head of Carr Fork, Bing-
ham, to incorporate under the name of
the Highland Boy Gold Mining COM
pany, and it was expected that the
company would perfect its organization
under the laws of this state. but it was
learned yesterday that the company
had Incorporated under the laws of
New Jersey with Sam Newhouse as
president: while II. H. Campbell, well
known business man of New York and
Boston, is treasurer OF the association.
The capital stock of the company,
according to The Herald's informant.
has been placed at 100000 shares of a
par value of 500 a share.
1t is understood that the contracts
for the erection of the Highland Boy
mill will be let about the first of the
year and, as has been stated before
in these columns, it will be the finest
plant ever erected in West Mountain
mining district
Thomas Weir. the manager of the
company. who was out to the mine on
Tuesday of this week states that the
property is looking in an excellent con-
dition, and that when the contemplated
improvements have been carried out it
can he claSsed as one of the best pro-
ducerS of the district
