THE MINING EXCHANGE
Sales of Sunbeam and steady AL

While there was but little activity
on the floor of the Mining Exchange

and number of advances were noted.

THE DALTON ASSESSMENT.
Quite "A Rush For the Stock at the
Delinquent Sale.

The sale of delinquent Dalton stock
which took place Tuesday afternoon
was so we'll attended that the idea that
all interest in this property had died
out was shown TO be without founda-
ton. and the eagerness with which
the stock was bid in by those present
would indicate that in the mining world
this property was still possessed of
merit
There were about % brokers and
mining investors at the sale of Dali
ton stock and the bidding was both
active and spirited, the prices at which
the stock was knocked down at being
all the way from rs to 3$4 cents. ac-
ccrding to the size of the certificate.
AS there was only about 1000 shares
delinquent the buyers failed to make
much of a haul even at these figures,
which in some instances were higher
than the bidding quotations on the
floor of the Mining Exchange. AT
these figures only a portion of the de-
linquent stock had TO be sacrificed for
the payment of the assessment, 50 that
the holders still have something left to
80 on.
The sale was not without its inter
esting features, one of which was the
appearance Of one delinquent stock
holder just at the time when his stock
$500 shares-was being auctioned off
This individual rushed into the room
with the assessment money in his
hands and before he had shut the door
he called out to stop the SALE The
buyers present entered a protest at
this but the law reads that the as
sessnent and costs of advertising can
be paid at any time before the actual
sale of the stock. This was a narrow
shave for the stakeholder; but in this
instance 4 minute was as good as an
hour. for the stock was saved just
about as it was TO pass into the DOS
session OF another.
1t is the general opinion that there
will be a gradual advance in Dalton
stock from now on, and especially SO
as it is reported that the lessees of
the property are now taking out high
grade ore.

PIONEER ANNIVERSARY.
appointment of Il Committee to Make
Arrangements For This Event.

Arrangements For This Event
As the outcome of the midsummer
carnival which was held in this city
last summer, the governor has recently
appointed a commission of ten, whose
duties will be to supervise a celebra-
ton to be held in this city next year
in honor of the fiftieth anniversary OF
the settlement of Utah
This commission will meet at the
governors office tomorrow for the pur-
pose of receiving their credentials and
also TO organize, in order that work
may begin at once in this praiseworthy
undertaking, and it is believed that
before long everything will be well in
hand and that within a few weeks the
enterprise will be in such shape that
the commission will have no trouble
in carrying the project to a successful
issue.
To start with, the commission has
$4,000 to draW on, as this amount was
appropriated for this purpose by the
legislature last winter; and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that every Wide-aWake
citizen of the state will contribute
something to the fund. and that all
will unite in making this the greatest
celebration ever held in Utah, or in the
west, for that matter
In mining circles in this city it has
been suggested that the county
courts of every county in the state be
solicited to make an appropriation TO
this fund, to be used as a mineral and
agricultural display from the re-
spective counties. This is an excellent
idea and should be presented to the
different county courts at an early
day.
The celebration of the fiftieth ami
versary of Pioneer day will constitute
one of the most important epochs in
the history of the state, and every
loyal citizen should join in the en-
deavor to make it success.

INTERCHANGEABLE MILEAGE.
Proposition For the Adoption O
Five Thousand Mile Tickets.

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-The central pas
senger committee will hold a special
meeting tomorrow for the purpose of
considering the resolution offered by
the Pennsylvania railroad for the
adoption of an interchangeable 5000
mile ticket. The Santa Fe railroad was
given relief today by Chairman Cald-
we'll in the matter of making a one
fare rate from Chicago to Phoenix,
Ariz., for the irrigation congress, Dec.
15-17. The trans Missouri and south
western roads granted the reduced
rates and forced the Santa Fe to ask
for relief, as other roads east refused
reductions.

THE BIG sUNFL0wER.
A Property of Merit That Gives Good
Promise For the Future.

Promise For the Future.
Colonel Andrew Cory, one of the
prominent citizens of Cedar City, in
Iron county, who was in the city yes
terday from Omaha, where he has
been with a shipment of fat cattle, in
the sale of which he met with q good
market, informs The Herald that
everything is all excitement in the
southern country just now over the
valuable discovery of rich gold and
silver deposits in the State Line dis
trict.
The Herald has made frequent men
ton of the encouraging showing in
this new camp, and all that this paper
has said concerning it is more than
corroborated by Mr.. Cory who is of
the opinion that State Line will
eventually come to the front as one of
the richest producers of the precious
metals to be found in this western
country.
With his usual enterprise the colonel
was among the first to get in on the
ground floor in the new district as
soon as it was known that a strike had
oeen made in that locality, and al
though it was not until lately that pay
ore was found on the group of claims
owned by himself and Is associates.
it begins to look as if the Big Sun
flower as the group is called, would
turn out to be as valuable as any of
the other mines of the camp.
The ledge on this group of claims
was not discovered until within the
past few weeks, and developments so
far show that it is a big blowout in
which rich ore is mixed 10 with the
vein matter; and just before Mr. Cory
left for Omaha with his CONSIGNMENT
of stock a big boulder was taken from
the groupings of the ledge and shipped
to Silver Reef for treatment. This mass
of ore weight 1000 pounds. and accord
ing to tests made on the rock, it has
been demonstrated that it carries val
ues of SO ounces in silver and $127 in
gold to the ton. This is an encourage
ing showing, especially as the ore is
all free milling, and it is believed that

and il is believed that this will turn
out 10 be one of the most important
discoveries that has been made in the
mine for some time.
One of the most Interesting features
connected with the strike is the find
ing of slickensddes: and a piece OF this
ore is now on exhibition at the Onta-
rio office that is as smooth as glass.
and to the uninitiated it has every
appearance of having made the init

considered as a very good sign, as they
