Mining Stock Review.

The local mining stock markets, says
the Inter Mountain Mining Review, is
still unable to hold its own against the
midsummer stagnation, the presiden-
tial campaign and the uncertain and
unsatisfactory financial conditions
throughout the land. 1t is still a SELL
er's market, but the local offerings
have been rather lighter than during
the previous week, which is construed
cal traders, however, are not sanguine
of any great activity until after the
election, but during the period of low
prices Shrewd spectators with little
ready cash VIII pick up a good many
snaps" If those eastern capitalists
who have been thrown into a panic by
the fear that the resumption of free
silver coinage will depreciate the value
of their boarded cash really desire to
protect themselves against possible
loss, they could not do better than to
load up with some of Utah's gilt-edged
dividend-payin mining stocks, which
are paying from l to 8 per cent per
month and are certain to appreciate
in value under free coinage. Utah
listed stocks have paid $62, 500 in divi-
dends during the past week, and $142,-
900 since the first of the month.
The weakness of the market has
a1IOrQGQ opportunities IOr pear RAIDS
and some of the best stocks have sllf-
fered at the hands of the scalpers
Ajax was one of the victims and the
stock was sold short until it reached
so cents, when an upward movement
set in. There is very little stock to be
had at present quotations and few
legitimate buying orders during the
past week would have played havoc
with the shorts. Excellent reports were
received from the mine during the
week. The ledge has been cut on the
300-foot level of the Wine, 465 feet
below the surface and this gives 120
feet of good Stopping ground. The COM
pany has definitely decided to erect a
mill, and the completion of the East
Tintic railroad will afford it a cheaper
outlet for its ores. The ore now being
shipped runs as high as three ounces
in gold.
Bullion Beck was strong at about
previous quotations, but in view of its
present dividend record and the condi-
ton of the mine it should command
better prices. 1t is the cheapest divi
dend-payer on the market, which can
only be accounted for by the uncertain
policy of tie management in the past.
Some odd blocks of Centennial-Eure-
ka sold at S65Q67.5O, but orders cannot
be filled at these figures.

Scene Of Great Excitement.
Especial to The lIerald)
BUTTE, Mont, Aug. 20.-A wonderful
gold strike has been made at Cedar
Hollow in the vicinity of Gaylord. on
,iale western slope of the Tobacco Root
range in Madison county, and hundreds
of prospectors are rushing to the new
district The strike is the richest ever
made in the state. The surface ore. of
which several carloads have been ship
ped, has yielded from $500 to $500 per
ton and the returns from twelve car
loads closely apla zach 100000. An
other carload of select rock, which is
about ready for shipment, is expected
to net the owners not less than 81 500.
This has all been taken from a surface
cut. and as the loeaTors have only been
ant work since about the lst of July it
remains yet to be seen whether it
comes from a true vein or is only a
deposdt i'm the lime formation in which

has been done are the Mayflower group,

than the rich ore comes from a true

The ore is guarded by men with Win
chesters and no such excitement in
mining has been known in the state

New-York tribune., 1896-10-26

The British Radical taunt. that the military
bankruptcy is not likely to be fulfilled 1t has
served the purpose of creating some popular
prejudice against the undertaking a costly
attempt TO reclaim n worthless region. Nothing
could be much further from the truth. as refer
ence to indubtable authority will show. In
deed It might have been taken for granted AT the
outset that the enterprise would not De pecuni-
arily proftless for the nation Of shopkccpcrs'

pretty sure OF getting pay.
If the expedition should 90 no further than
Dongola, where it now is. il would certainly he
q profitable enterprise. The province Of Don
COLA is populous and fertile. and needs nothing
but good government TO make j, source OF
much profit to its owners. In 1852. the last year
before it was abandoned to MahIlsiic barbar
ism. its budget showed revenue of fE:,1.GSl
against expenditures Of fEl0.G0j; an Egyptian
pound being worth about $ cents more than a
British pound. There was then a surplus Of
fE4JO7G or. In round numbers. S22j.OO0 Sure
ly such a province is worth reclaiming. II will
not take it many years to pay off the whole cost
Of this expedition. OF course ii is now in Il bad
plight Fourteen years of Mahdi>m have pros
built irrigation works restored orchards replant
ed. But short time in that climate and on that
soil will suffice to make the province blossom
as the rose
Nor Is Dongola the only province worth re-
claiming Berber is also valuable. Ii showed
in 1882 a surplus Of fE23.916. Suakim. too was
a source of profit. though in far less degree. its
surplus being fEG.116. All three Of these could
therefore be restored to Egypt without fear Of
march to bankruptcy" On the contrary the
possession Of them would increase the financial
prosperity OF that country and the security Of It's
bondholders. Should the expedition Ultimately
proceed to Khartoum, as II probably will. some
different conditions would there be found. Khar-
toum was never. apparently. a profitable prov

son to believe that under proper government it,.

But II not. the surplus from the other three Is
large enough TO cover its deficit and still leave

the English press has hitherto not been well

,be English press has hitherto not been well
served by its American correspondents. Their
disnatchps have always been meagre. and too
often warned and distorted to cater to sup
nosed British taste unfriendly TO this country.
II is probably safe estimate that news OF the
present political campaign here has filled more
snoce in the British press than that OF the half
dozen preceding Presidential contests all put to-
rether. Moreover. the American abroad does
not always serve his country we'll. English
editors are not able to exercise proper discrim-

they are.
There are now. however. certain Indications
of n better era American correspondents OF the
