mel level, from which a drift extends
ll5 feet in a northeastern direction
terminating in an incline of % feet.
From the tunnel level about 500 feet of
raises, slopes and crosscuts have been
put through. Within So feet of the
mouth of the tunnel there is a ledge
20 feet in width between a lime hang
ing wall and quartzite foot wall, which
Mr.. Steele informs US carries manga
nese copper, a little gold, some silver
and trace in lead. Likewise blanket
vein seven feet wide between walls,
which runs 9 ounces in silver 81 in
gold and l21a per cent in lead. In the
vein running north at the breast of
the tunnel is a horse" and when that
is passed through he thinks he will
strike pay ore. To accomplish this Mr.
Steele wants to sink a shaft lbs feet
and cut the vein so that he can drift
behind the horse" instead of going
through it. In the upper works. he
thinks, is the apex of the vein.

WILL BUILD A TOLL ROAD.
B. A. Cardwell Meets With Success
In California.

3. a. Cardwell, who IS we'll known
in Salt Lake City and other portions of
Utah and the west, returned yesterday
from Nevada county, Cal, where he
succeeded in obtaining a charter from
the county for the construction of a
toll road from Truckee to Cisco by way
of Meadow Lake mining district, and
he states that before returning he was
able TO interest capital in the building
of the road, and that it is the intention
to begin work in its construction as
early as possible in the spring.
Mr.. Cardwell, who is heavily inter
ested in properties in Meadow Lake
district, is of the opinion that that To-
eality is destined to enjoy a remark
able boom in the spring, and this IS
one Of the reasons that he is so much
interested in the building of the ton
road, as he is convinced that before
the end of the present year the camp
viii have made rapid strides 10 the
front
One of his reasons for this belief is
the fact that ne has also interested
capital in the district, and it is the in
tention of himself and associates to
erect roasting furnace in the camp in
the spring with capacity of treating
80 tons of ore daily.
Mr.. Cardwell also states that in the
spring two other companies will put
enough ore in sight in the mines of the
district to run these reduction works
for many years to come.
To Herald reporter Mr.. Cardwell
states that he enjoyed his California
trip very much and that the people
with whom he has been associated have
treated him right royalty.

chicago eeneral Markets.

Chicago. Jan. 12.-Wheat opened firm
this morning, but shortly afterwards
yielded TO free selling of long wheat.
When that pressure was removed from
the market it strengthened up and ad-
vanced to better figures than were
quOtable at the start. Liverpool did
not decline quite as much as was ex-
pected. and that with reported buying
here by foreigners and the sale of
100. 900 bushels of cash wheat for ship
ment abroad were the Erming influ-
ences. The sentiment remained bear
ish, however, and the inclination was
TO deDress rather than elevate values.
Receipts in the northwest were liberal
at $50 cars, against 149 last Tuesday.
and 80 a year ago. Chicago had -
cars and inspected out 24,911 bushels.
The tone displayed quite a little i'm
rrovement later and an advance to the
call price took place, but selling
against those privileges prevented any
further rise. Export cleardnceS were
moderate at 23l. 1867 bushels. Closing
continental cables were lower. May
wheat opened from SO1a to S0ss. sold be-
tween 1874 and SOS. closing at SOS
Is higher than yesterday. Estimated
receipts for tomorrow. L. cars. No. >
red spot wheat ranged from S7% to
SS1S closing about 7sGSS7s.

Stocks on the Curb.

Stocks were active on the curb yes
terday, both before and after the call
of the Stock Exchange.
& IA the morning. before the call,
Swansea was wanted at $3.50; Northern
Light at SIC; South Swansea at $1.S5
and Mammoth at 81
In the afternoon there was a lively
demand for good stocks, and the fol-
lowing bidding quotations were made:
South Swansea, S1-S5; Northern Light.
Sl12 cents; Ajax, S7l2; Bullion Beck,
$50; Mammoth. $2.45: Swansea, $3.50;
Buckeye. 1872; Sunbeam, II.
It Viii be noticed that Mammoth
made decided gains during the day and
that Bullion-Beck also scored good ad-
Vances, while Northern Light, Ajax
and South Swansea were very firm
with an upward tendency noticeable.
Mercur was weak throughout the day
and closed at about the same figure as
the morning quotation.

WESTERN SLOPE ACTIVITY.
The De Lamar Mercur Option
Causes No Surprise.

Mercur, Jan. 11.-There is no sign of
a let up in West Dips excitement In
deed it would be hard to see why it
! should, as every day adds TO the list
! the number of prospects in which the
! indications are that the ore body is
close. Neither does the stalking of
claims in the valley appear as foolish
as 1t did at first. as the groupings show
! that the vein does not continue to sink
at the same angle that il does on the
foothills. In the Daisy, the vein has
fiattened out merely to the dip of the
valley slope, showing that there is good
reasoning at the back of the Golden
| Gate theory
The news of the option obtained on
the Mercur by De Lamar caused but
little surprise as it was we'll known
that both the Golden Gate and the
Mercur had been thoroughly examined
by the experts. The price asked how
ever, was generally admitted to be
much lower than most OF the miners
believed would be asked
Mayne, Scheu and others are ap-
preaching De Lamar in the number of
claims located in the valley Deter,
Clay and DignOwity are also in the
swim TO a great extent. Probably no
less than a thousand claims have been
located in the valley, and still the
work goes on.
Arrangements have been completed
for a resumption of work on the Hecla.
The boiler has been repaired and the
company are only awaiting the arrival
of supplies from Salt Lake City to
commence work.
Two men are employed drifting in

Your correspondent is informed by
Mr.. Benner, of the Geyser, that the in
junction has been raised on the dis
puted ground and as the court decided
it belonged to the Geyser company,
the citation of the officers to answer a
charge of contempt of court for taking
ore from their own ground looks very
much like a burlesque.
The Brickyard is now doing their
drilling with an Ingersol- Sergeant
drill and as a matter of course are go I
ing into the ore at rapid pace.
The Daisy deal is off as De Lamar /

ENCOURAGING SHOWING.
Developments Being Pushed in Open
ing Up the Homesfake.


Hon. Frank Harris, manager. and
/ Jay Harris. secretary and treasurer of
/ the Homestake mine. returned Mon
day from Silver City, Tintic. where
they made an examination of the mine.
which. from all accounts. is looking in
a most encouraging condition.
The shaft in the Homestake is now
down to the 2s5-foot level and it is
being sunk between the two chutes of
pay ore in the vein.
The intention of the company is to
gain depth as rapidly as possible and
arrangements are being made for the
installation of a steam hoist which
win be in place about the middle of
February.
During the past few weeks there
has been an active demand for the
treasury stock OF the company and
since returning home Mr.. Harris has
filed orders for g. block of 10000 shares
for eastern parties. besides a block of
1880 shares for residents of Pocatello.
Ida, and l,500 shares for Tintic peo-
pie
With the steam hoist in operation
the work Of sinking will be pushed with
greater rapidity and when cross-cut-
ting is begun and the ore bodies devel-
oped the mine win be equipped so
that it can be worked to good advan-
tage.
From advices from Tintic, from other
sources, it is learned that the prop
erty is looked upon in a most favor
able light by mining men who are we'll
acquainted with the district. and that
it is believed it will come to the front
at no distant day as one of,the regular
paying mines of the camp.
