ore bodies. mostly milling iron carry

are to be made, with the view of oper-
ating the old Markham mill in connec-

thorough oveThauling, and some new
machinery will be put in, replacing
rolls and crusher. Superintendent Ed
Mas is expecting members of the
Northern Light company here from
Michigan.
George Hirsch and partners will soon
resume operations on the Rosa, above

for some time waiting for the snow TO
melt, as it lays very deep in the local

Mr. Kervin, who is foreman at Ontario

as it will inspire confidence that ore
will be found If there is any. The flu
ture plans for working the property
are not yet fully laid out, but il VIII
involve continuing the drift north from
the lower tunnel which runs from east
TO west and is $40 feet in length. A
shaft will be sunk from the ore body
in the upper workings to the lower
tunnel. The stockholders are well
pleased with the action at last nights

THE ARGoNAUT PLAcERs.
Bingham Gold Diggings Secured IN
der Bonds.

A deal was contaminated in this city
yesterday whereby T. w. Mathews and
C. f. Bolton of this city secured bond
and lease on the Argonaut gold placer
diggings at Bingham, owned by j. w.
Strickley.
The term of the lease is for a period
of five years, while the bond calls for
the payment of $4,000, the lessees to
pay a specified royalty on all gold re-
covered.
The Argonaut Dlacers have been a
source of wealth for many years, and
for a long time past they have been
operated by Italians. but they never
could be induced 70 tell the value Of
their clean-ups. 1t is known, however.
that the diggings are rich in the yell
low metal. and it is believed that the
new lessees have tied up q, good thing.
Messrs. Mathews and Bolton Will go
out to Bingham this morning for the
purpose of examining the property pre-
paratory to beginning active work for
the season. it being the intention to
put on a force of men sometime this
week.
The indicaticTss are that the season
will be a favorable one as the large
snowfall the past winter insures an

and the record of transactions ex-
hibited quite a wide range.
In the listed securities, Galena and
Geyser were favorites. Galena devel-
oped a strong upward tendency and
the bidding on this stock went as high
as 81 cents, while sales were recorded
at 931k. Geyser was in good demand,
although the quotation made was lit
lie below former figures. Eagle reg
istered a sale, which is the first trans
fer that this security has recorded for
several months past. Ajax fell off in
the bidding, but was held at the offer
ing of the previous day. Bullion-Beck
was very weak in the bidding and the
stock was sluggish. Centennial Eureka
was also the victim of bear attack,
and was offered at a low figure. DAILY
and Daly-WeSt were stationary and
created but little interest. -Four Aces
was listless and is slowly but surely
on the downward grade. Mercur failed
TO figure in the business of the call,
but the stock was firm in the bidding
and was held for an advance. Mann
moth was somewhat weak, although
buyer and seller were near together at
one time during the call before the
bid of S1.55 was withdrawn. Geyser-
Marion held its own with quite a gap
was in good demand at IS cents, but
holders of the stock held out for 30.
Utah was unchanged.
In the unlisted stocks, Swansea was
weak and developed downward ten

quoted as low as % cents in the offer
ings and only caught bid of 10. Dex-
ter. registered gains in the bidding as
we'll as in the offerings. South Swan
sea maintained its own but nothing
more.
The week on the floor of the ex-
change has been an exceedingly dull
one, and the transactions have been
almost featureless.
During this period Northern Light
reached the dollar mark once again,
but it was unable to hold its gains and
fell back to 80 cents, at which hgure
it closed strong. Mercur has been
strong throughout the week and is
gradually working its way I'D TO IS.
Mammoth has been a puzzle, but has
been strong for a number of DAYS at
81 521b to 81 50 in the bidding. The re-
appearance of Sacramento on the board
Al such a marked decline has caused
considerable surprise among the friends
of this stock. who can ascribe no good
cause for the decline. Swansea, which
started out at the first of the week as
winner. suffered losses, notwith-
standing that it has just declared its
regular dividend, which will be paid
tomorrow.
