PoLLoCK'S LETTER,
Weekly Review of the Mining Share
Market.

James A. Pollock will say in his weekly
mining share market letter under date
of October so, 1896: Business for the week
was comparatively narrow. The near ap-
proach OF the election has a tendency TO
curtail speculation and transactions must
of necessity be restricted until that dis
turbing event is finally settled. look
for a general revival in trade and while
there may be some temporary recesSionS
IN the strictly silver stocks IL will not be
for long, and toward the first OF the year
l look for some sensational advances.
The greatest requirement at present in
this market is courage and a strong
profit is in view for all who take advant-
age of the situation.
Ajax did a heavy business and the quo
"a tions continued strong although there
was no material advance The well post
ed predict a still further advance in the
stock within the next few weeks, basing
their opinion on the splendid showing at
the properties and the consequent good
record being made by the company The
closing down of the Anchor has material
IN weakened that stock and there will
hardly be an Improvement until operations
are resumed. Bullion-Beck remained
stationary, as is usually the case after the
payment of the dividend. Good reports
are coming from the mines, although the
grade of ore being taken out is somewhat
lower than usual. Eureka did
practically nothing, but the security is a
great favorite and there are few sellers
in the market But for the condition OF
the market there would undoubtedly be
a lively demand for the stock at the
present quotations, upon which 20 per
cent is being paid, with every prospect
of an increase.
DAILY West was strong, with the demand
greater than the supply. The company
IS doing very well and is getting into
splendid shape, financially and physically
Stockholders confidently expect the
declaration of the quarterly dividend early
next month by the Taly. While nothing
official has been given out, the ind.ca-
tons are that the August payment
will be repeated. Dalton and Dalton and

Lack of demand for Geyser at the ad

in the stock at the opening, but with the
close came q somewhat better feeling

SHOWING IN THE GEYsER.
Milling Capacity Increased and
Large Ore Bodies Exposed.

MERCUR, Oct 29.-Colonel Miner
is a very busy man these days, being
engaged in the work of receiving the
materials for the Geyser mill extern
sion and in experimenting the work of
building. A new set of precipitating
tanks are in place, and the work of
putting up the teaching tanks is in
progress. The mill will have a ca
pacity of $50 tons when completed.
The mine, under the able manage
ment of superintendent Benner, is in
good condition, and enough ore has
been blocked out to supply the mill to
its full capacity for a long time In
every part of the workings attention
has been paid to having things handy,
and advantage of the principle of the
attraction of gravity has been taken
in the moving of ores. In no part of
the workings is it necessary to hoist
the ore or shovel it up HILL as, by the
aid of chutes and inclines, it is on the
down grade all the way. In this way
the cost of mining is reduced to a
minimum.
In teaching, a longer time is given
than is usually considered necessary,
and the result is that the tailings
contain so small a percentage of gold
tically no waste.
The value of cyanide shipments from
the Geyser this month will be more
than in any previous month, and as
the conditions may be said to be per-
manent, there will be an increase OF
the profits 1t is in view of these facts
that stockholders are satisfied that the
Geyser will join the ranks of the divi-
dend payers at an early date.

ments for the resumption of work on

be making money, as the total cost of
working is less than 81 per ton
Mr.. George of Salt Lake city has been
spending few days in the Tintic min
ing district. He reports that business
at Mammoth is very lively and that it
is impossible TO rent a house, and
even hard to rent a bed, so great has
been the influx of late. He thinks
Tintic will be lively camp during the
winter.
The latest news from Sunshine is OF
a very encouraging nature. A great
deal of work is being done on claims in
that portion of the district, and many
claim-holders are preparing for the
winters work. The Overland expects
to be ready to build a mill early in the
spring, and the Red Cloud will prob
ably follow suit about the same time
The Searchlight is prepared to again
prosecute its work with improved IA
cilities. and altogether there is reason
to believe that there will be several
producers in Sunshine before the
robins nest again.

MERCUR, Oct. 2s.-It is reported on
the q. t. in Mercur today that rich
strike has been made in what is known
as the Western Foothills" and it is
now believed that one of the greatest
gold discoveries of the district has
been made especially as the body is a
large one and the gold values run up
very high, and this almost at the grass
roots.
For some time the exact location of
the strike was kept a profound secret,
but during the afternoon it was
learned that it was on the Omaha
ground, not far from the old workings
of this property, and parties who have
Just returned from an inspection OF
the new find state that it is only
about 10 feet from the surface, and
that the ore body is all of u feet in
width, and tests of the ore show
values running from $3.50 to SAT In
gold 10 the ton.
This is exceedingly high-grade fol

handled so cheaply, and at this shall

progresses.
AS a result of this important dis
covery a great deal of work will be
done on the properties in the locality
of the Omaha this fall, and especially
on the La Cigale, which is on the same
ledge, and on which there is already
a very favorable showing.

slope have always been of the mos

is located.

Pitchforlx and Gun.

Two men giving the names of James
Burns and E. Logan came in from
Park city yesterday and went to the
place of Ben R. Harris in Sugar to
get a load of hay. When the hay was
loaded Harris missed pair of gloves
and accused Logan of stealing them.
This precipitated a row, and Harris,
who holds the office of constable, says
Logan attacked him with a pitchforh.
He, however. got his gun and, contin-
uing his search, found the gloves
among the hay. He then, as an Of
ficer, essayed to put Logan under ar
rest for petit larceny, and Burns, he
alleges, interfered. Between the two
Harris got a hard blow on the side
of the head, to which he replied by
striking Logan over the head with the
revolver, infiicting a wound so severe
that the services of a physician were
required to dress it.
Burns and Logan then, by the aid of
Deputy Sheriffs Thomas and Gibbs,
were taken to the sheriff's office, and
later before Justice Harvey, where
Constable Harris swore to complaints
charging Logan with petit larceny and
Burns with interfering with an Of
ficer in the discharge of his duty. They
will have hearing today.

Two Opinions Handed Down Yester-

In the case of NJ. Eastman. appellant.
VS.. A. R. Gurrey, the state supreme
court yesterday handed down an opin-
ion written by Justice Miner, and con-
CURED in by Chief Justice Zane and
Justice Bartch, in which the appeal
was dismissed.
The plaintiff recovered judgment in
the district court in an action in eject
ment against the defendant in Feb
ruary last. This Judgment was after
wards set aside and vacated and a new
trial granted on motion of the de-
PENDANT, and the appellant appealed
from the order vacating and setting
aside the Judgment. The respondent
then moved TO dismiss the appeal, on
the ground that no appeal lies to this
court from an order vacating and set
ting aside the judgment under section
9 of article of the state constitution.
and that such order was not final
judgment, from which an appeal will
lie to the supreme court.
The opinion says: we are of the
opinion that when the trainers of Sec
ton of the constitution used The
term from all final judgments of the
district courts there shall be a right
of appeal to the supreme court, they
intended to deny the right of appeal to
the supreme court in all other cases
arising under that clause. although no
express term of negation was lsed-

their own in fairly good shape, 1T was
a noticeable fact that the interest OF

euced a similar decline. Geyser made
decided advances in the bids. and it
was claimed on the street that the
rise was due to the rumor that the
company would pay dividend next
however. the report was denied, al
though it is believed that dividends
will be forthcoming from this company
soon after the first of the year. Ga

BuLLaoN-BEcK STRIKE.
High Grade silver Ore Uncovered on
the 900 level.

EUREKA. Oct. zs.-The Bullion
Beck records a remarkable strike of
high-grade ore this week. A very fine
body of high-gTade silver ore was en-
countered on the 900-foot level last
evening in a drift near the main shaft.
This is regarded as the most import
ant strike OF recent years, being the
first body of shipping ore found be-
low the Se0-foot level. 1t is as yet inn
possible to determine the size of the
ore body, but as what is supposed to
be the same ore body has been found
in about the same locality on the 600
level, it is thought to be enormous. If
this ore is found to continue below the
800 level it is very likely that the main
shaft will be sunk at once another 100
feet
