had secured a lease and bond on the
Dipper gold mine. which is located near
the mouth of Little Cottonwood, in
Salt Lake county. Subsequently, how
ever, a hitch occurred in the transac-
ton and the deal fell through. Still
the originators of the project have been
quietly working ever since and with
unbounded faith in the value of the
property they have stuck to their orig
inal purpose with bulldog tenacity, and
Thursday night the enterprise was sue
cessfully landed. and through the eff
forts of Messrs Gill s. Peyton and c.
L. Dignowity syndicate of eastern
capitalists were able TO secure bond
and lease on this valuable proposition.
which comprises a group of three
claims the consideration named in the
papers calling for good round sum.
The new management was at once
vested with the possession Of the
property and it is the intention to begin
extensive developments within the mex
day or so with a force of IS men, and
it is confidently believed that before
the expiration of three months the
mine will take rank as a regular ship
per, and that before winter comes
again" it will fall into line as a divi-
dend payer.
In the operation of the property the
tunnel will be extended and the ledge
in that immediate vicinity viii be
thoroughly prospected and explored
and as some very fine high grade free
milling ore has already been disclosed
in the face of the tunnel, it is con-
fidently expected that as work pro-
crosses a large body of this class Of
mineral will. be uncovered.
The shaft on the group is now down
to a depth of 40 feet and in the Dot
tom there is a siX-foot body of ore
that carries average values of S12 20
to the ton, while picked samples assay
$40 and even higher, and ore is occa-
encountered that shows gold
in its native state. The work of deep
ening this shaft viii begin at once and
the property Will be opened up in
scientific manner.
Adjoining the Dipper group is an ex-
cellent mill site and water right, which
in all probability will be utilized later
on by the purchasers of the property.
This Will be the first really heavy
work that has or will soon be done
in the search for the precious metals
IN that locality: and judging from the
fine and rich samples of gold quartz
that have been brought in from there.
there is good reason for the belief hat
only development is necessary to re-
veal the mother lode of that section.
and now that something is to be done
there it is hoped that others will take
courage and resume work in the pros
pectlng of other prospects in the same
locality.

There was an excellent tone to the
market yesterday morning; there was
also marked activity on the floor of the
mining exchange. and quite a number
of the leading securities figured in the
transactions of the call.
AS rule the listed stocks were the
favorites, especially so in the way of
sales. Ajax was stationary in the bid
ding, but in the offerings decided gains
were noted. Bullion Beck was inactive
and weak in the bidding. There was
considerable inquiry for Galena and
sales We're recorded at So cents, which
is quite a decline. considering the quo
tations on this security a month or six
weeks ago Mercur, while firmly held at
the old figures, slumped in the bidding.
Mammoth was in good demand and af-
Ter some sparring on the part of the
bulls and bears a block of the stock
changed hands at $3.50. GeySer- Marion
advanced to $l.30 in the bidding, but
holders would not let go under $3.50.
Northern Light created considerable
interest and transfers were recorded at
Sc and S612 cents. More than usual at
tention was accorded Utah, which
chronicled gains as well as sales and
was firmly held at the close.
There was a disposition on the part
of the brokers TO slight the unlisted
securities and but little business was
done in these. South Swansea devel- !
oped upward tendencies and closed
strong in the bidding at Sis, while
none of the stock was offered under
81 %. Dexter was quoted al $40 bid
and S1.90 asked. Little Pittsburg re-
gaind lost ground and transfers We're
noted at 80 cents. There was consid- /
cradle inquiry for Omaha, but buyer
and seller were too far apart for the
transaction of any business. Swansea 1
maintained its own in the bidding, /
while holders stood out for better
prices.
The transactions of the day were as
follows:
SALES OF STOCK.
200 Galena at SO cents.
200 Mammoth at SLIGO.
zoo Northern Light at Sc cents.
100 Northern Light at S61a cents.
200 Utah at 81.
400 Utah at S1.02l5.
1000 Little Pittsburg at 3l5 cents.
Total sales $500 shares.
Value of sales S1,42S.50.
The closing quotations were as fol-
lows:
