STOCK ExCHANGH FUND.
Tied Up by the Failure of the Bank

Tied Up by the Failure of the Bank
of Salt Like.
1t was suggested sometime ago that
the mining stock exchange close its
doors for the hot summer months in
oder to give the brokers a vacation
until the weather moderated some
what. Now however, it begins to look
as If the exchange would be obliged to
shut its doors on account of a shortage
Of funds caused by the failure of the
Bank of Salt Lake.
Mr.. Bacon of this bank is the treas
urer of the exchange, and at the time
OF the bank failure had about 81, $50 of
exchange money in his keeping, and
unless he is able at an early day to
meet the secretaTy's checks, the insti-
tuition will be obliged to also close it's
doors or else levy an assessment upon
It's members to keep it going, and from
all indications there are not more than
half a dozen brokers who would re-
soond to such a call
Through some oversight the officers
of the exchange did not require it's
treasurer to give bonds for the safe
keeping Of its funds and is therefore
in the soup along with the other de-
positors of the bank.
With such condition OF affairs
staring it in the face the management
OF the board is in a quandry what to
do and it is possible that the brokers
Will be given a vacation until the bank
is able to resume, which is to he hoped
VIII be at an early date.

Bingham with great regularity is
ever springing surprises upon the
mine owners of that magnificent
camp, and it is often that these pleas
ing experiences come in pairs, and oc-
casionally in +riplets; but it is more
frequently the case that in the great
mines of the camp. in sinking on mann
moth bodies Of milling or even ship
ping ore. fine chutes of very rich min
eral are uncovered.
The Dalton and Lark met with an
incident of this description yesterday.
and consequently Manager Schenck is
In excellent spirits. Notwithstanding
the fact that earlier in the day the
ready funds of the company were tied
up by the Bank of Salt Lake failure.
While sinking on g, large body of
good grade ore il VIM from the 700
foot level in the Dalton mine Yester-
DAY morning the men uncovered a body
of soft iron carbonates. q. foot in width,
that assayed per cent lead and 220
ounces in silver 10 the ton. This was
a surprise to the men. and also TO Man
ager Schenck, and the latest advices
y
noon were to tne effect that the rich
chute was getting larger as depth was
obtained.
The Dalton and Lark, with its man.
moth ore bodies, both milling and
shipping. is one of the leading pro-
dGcers OF West mining district, where,
although the lodges are noted for their
permanency and magnitude, rich
chimneys and stratas are OF frequent
occurrence.
Both of the Dalton and Lark mills
are running regularly, and heavy ship
ments of crude ore and concentrates
are consigned from this property al
most daily. Y :
Mr. Schenck. in speaking Of the fail
ure of the Bank of Salt Lake. in which
the funds of the company were largely
deposited, informs The Herald that
the company will pay its regular divi-
dend next month as if nothing had
happened.

DIPS, SPURS AND ANGLES.

cause her to suTpass all her neighbors,
even the impetuous Lehi, the town of
beet sugar fame. There has been
much said Of late about a custom mill
for ores being erected and set in opera
ton in American Fork canyon. 1t has
been said that a new form of nachin-
cry that separates the metals from
the ores by a new patented electrical
process is to be used. Machinery of
this character has lately been tested
in Salt Lake City and was found to be
most successful. So now there is to be
a. mill down this way somewhere. Bee
man & Co. of the Wild Dutchman mine
are going 70 erect custom mill either
here or in the canyon. If they build in
American Fork canyon the capacity of
the mill viii be forty tons of ore per
day, but If they put in a milling outfit
here, which they will surely do, if we
may judge by present indications, the
capacity will be one hundred tons per
day. The company has concluded that
American Fork is just the place for
custom mill. They like the location
AND surroundings here and admire the
picturesqueness of the city and the To-
cality. industry and business enter
prise of our citizens. So an offer is
now made to this city to erect and
operate a 1O0-ton capacity mill right in
the heart of the town if our people will
put up small bonus and insure their
hearty co-ODera ton.

BEAVER COUNTY MINES.
I he News Predicts Great Activity in
Mining Circles


Mining Circles.
The smelter and furnace, and mill at
the sulphur beds, is running day and
night under the SUPPLEMENTARY of Mr..
John NJ McFarlane, with some forty
names on the payroll, but we regret to
hea- that they think of closing down
abb it July l, for two or three months
During the last eighteen months one
hitch and delay has succeeded another
in the development of the Cremona
mines, not that the owners lacked con-
hoence in their properties but rather the
means to go ahead with and determine
the extent of their ore bodies and quality
Mr.. Simon Bamberger, Eisenman and
others, from Salt Lake, were here about
month ago and Mr.. Banberger sue
ceeded IN getting a controlling interest at
that time, not only in the group, but in
several others equally as good if not bet
ter, the properties Of Mr.. John E. Farr and
D. j. trew, Mr.. Bamberger went east
Immediately after returning to Salt Lake,
returning Iherefrom a few days ago, as
we are advised. with funds sufficient to
push development work to the satisfac-
ton of himself and Mr. Wilson. an ex-
pert mining engineer, who is in the mines
examining the lodges and ground and di-
recting the workings necessary for the
taking out of the ores, and the building
OF reduction works in the near future. It
is reported that at least twenty TO forty
men viii be put to work Immediately
which we hope is true, as we do not
know OF any mining camp in all the
Rocky mountains where ores can be so
cheaply mined and reduced as on North
creek and Indian creek, fire-wood and
mining timber being all around the prop
critics, and labor cheap. Without the de-
velopment of some Of these good mines,
Beaver will be at a stand-still for many
years.
If any of our readers have any doubt
as to the mines up Indian creek, they
have only to look at the piece of rock
Dick Tassel was showing on Wednesday,
and which had been broken off a newly
discovered ledge in the vicinity of the
Helen McGTegor a day or two before
The piece couldn't weigh over eight
ounces, and it was not only starred with
gold but barred with gold, and at least
IS worth was in sight.
Mr.. Anthony Godbe has purchased one
of the best mines in the state Line dis
trict, Nevada, from which they are now
shipping ore to their smelter and mills
at Bullionville. Should the property
continue TO be as extensive in the ore
bodies as it is now, they will put up a
mill, near to the mine, and about twenty
miles northeast of Panacca.

Railroad Notes.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2S.-The report
of the Southern Pacific company for the
year ending December 81, 1895. was issued
today.
The report shows that the net earnings
per mile of road have decreased gradu-
ally from S5,T63.97 in 1872 to S2,296.62 in
1885, The decrease in the net earnings
is explained by the decrease in the re-
ceipts per ton, all of which is attributed
to reduced freight rates. The figures
show that the traffic has increased and
the net earnings at the same time have
decreased.
President c. p Huntington, in his an
nual report which forms preface to the
volume, has the following to say on the
subject of rates:
The feeling, almost an epidemic,
passing from state to state, under whose
influence people have fixed or endeavored
to fix the rates of fares and freights
which they should themselves pay for
the service given and the benefits derived
by those who use the railroads, without
regard to the rights of those who create
or own the properties is disappearing. a
better appreciation of the mutually of
interest between the public and the rail-
roads and a higher sense of justice has
been reached in most of the states and
il is reasonable to assume that a similar
state of the public mind will soon OBJ
tain in the few states in which attacks
are still being made against corporate
property and more particularly rail-
roads,
