The caller and the marker were about
It. q only ones who exhibited much life
during yesterdays call, and had it not
been for a small transfer of Sunshine
and Dalton stocks. the exchange would
have scored a whitewash.
BIDS and offers were made on every
stock called, but trading was not at
all keen. Considerable discussion en-
sued Immediately after the call over
the subject of dealing in futures, but no
decision was arrived at, and probably
viii not be until the bylaws have been
revised in this respect; for, at the
best, they are very ambiguous on this
point, and. as Caller Colburn said,
make delightful puzzle if artistic

At the close Of the call it was an
nounced that a meeting of the mem
<5ers Of the exchange would be held on
February 8 at 1880 p. m, and it was
requested that every member be pres

that Immediately after the adjourn

MOSS MINING DISTRICT.
Rich Discovery Made in the Con-
glOmerate Claim.

Rich Discovery Made in the Con-
glomerate Claim.
JUAB, Utah, Jan. S0.-The Mining
Recorder of Moss Mining district is
in town from that camp today, and
your correspondent finds that all is
excitement in there on account of re-
cent discoveries made on the Con-
glomerate claim, which belongs to
Juab and Levan Gold Mining and
Milling company. of a large body of
rich ore, and piece he had in his
possession made my eyes water. l
called upon the secretary of the min
ing company and found that the treas
rry stock was held very stiff, and no
inclination to sell at anything below
so cents. Also that the Moss Bros, had
sold their stock in the mining COM
pany to Salt Lake parties, but that
they are kicking themselves since the
big discovery has been made.
The camp will no doubt rival Mercur
before six months have passed away.
The recorder also informs me that a
townsite has been plated and that lots
are ready for sale.
Juab parties have secured three lots
for a two story hotel, and as soon as
the roads are passable, will commence
construction work.
There is plenty of water In the dis
trict. which is also taken up by the
townsite people for the use of the pur-
chasers of town lots.

are furnished me; the various combina-
lions have no effect. All must drop and
go in solution from four to six hours
after the electric current has been
turned on and the chemicals applied.
The ore must be reduced to a proper
size. about 20-mesh screen being the
best adapted. The solvent is introduce
ed through the ore by perforated tubes,
another very valuable invention of my
own, amply protected by patents. These
tubes are necessary for the working OF
large tanks of ore, and especially those
kinds which are mixed with clay, tale
and fine slums. We can work any
amount, from 80 pounds to so tons in
tanks. These tubes cannot be worked
in any other process save mine. The
cost of hundred ton plant is about
$4,000, and for its operation requires
one miners inch of water-abOut
twelve gallons per minute. Any mill
will do the crushing, with the addition
OF a dynamo and wooden tank, as
nothing but wooden or rubber tanks
will answer the purposes. The cost
of the chemicals is about 40 or so cents
a ton. The royalty will be 81 per ton
for all ore worked. There is no roast
ing required for any ore. We have
demonstrated that Sc per cent. of the
value given by a chemical analysis
can be recovered, and very often more
than this. l have saved more than
the values given in a fire assay, es-
peclally where the ore contains CHINA
bar or zinc, or any volatile substance
Whlch would carry it's values away in
the fumes"

BUSINESS, MINING AND STOCKS

cur townsite and the Baby Elephant
and June Bug lodes by Edwin w. Sen
Tor, Of this city, and w. E. Ladd, of
Leadville.
The townsite of Mercur is located on
these lodes, and the option secured by
these gentlemen include all the lots I'M
sold and the mineral rights of the
claims, which consist of patented
ground. This is a stroke of enterprise
that will open the eyes of some of our
slow-going people, and the result Of
the deal may in time create a stir in
Utah such as has not been experienced
for many a year
Mr.. Senior is also figuring on publish
ing a beautifully engraved and litho-
graphed pamphlet, which will be de-
voted to Camp Floyd mining district.
1t will contain concise and accurate
description of the camp, map of the
district and will be embellished to the
highest extent known in art. Colorado
will spend a million this year in adj
vertising the mineral wealth of that
state to the world, and as conse-
quence is corralling nearly all the
money that is coming west Mr.. Sen
ior believes that Utah should share
in this outpouring of eastern capital.
and that to do this our people should
awake from their Slumbers and join
in the march toward prosperity and
wealth. His idea is a laudable one,
and he should receive the encourage
ment he deserves
