River. In fact, there is any amount Of
coal in the country with which to work
our precious minerals when we obtain
the necessary facilities.
In one instance eighty avoirdupois
pounds of gold were realized from II
single cleanup, representing about
SIC, 600 in money. This seems eXtraOr-
dinary, but we must bear in mind that
the dump from which this came con-
tanned only $4,000 and took the united
efforts of five or six men at S1.5O per
hour for upward of three months, not
including the labor of sluicing, so tLaC0
although II is tremendously rich, il is

/ saw the other evening in one Of the
papers that n man who owns a claim
on FL Dorado and another on Bear
Creek has sold out for Sl,OOO,OOO. Ho
went into the country a poor man with
the intention of raising sufficient money
to pay off the mortgage on his place.
Well, he has done so; he has not only
paid off his own mortgage. but the
mortgages OF his nelghbors.
Although these creeks are rich, and
as I have told you more men have
made homesteaks there than anywhere
else IN the world, l do not wish you TO
look only ON the bright side of the pic
ture. An American from Seattle camo
in June, 1896, to the Forty Mile with
his wife, with the intention of hetter-
ing his condition They went out
again last July with $4,000. l was well
acquainted with this man, a very de-
cent, intelligent chap. He told ME one
day that If n could remain in that
country from three To live wears and
go out with $4,000 he would consider
himself i'm great luck. He has come
out with $4,000 and after prospecting
his claim at both ends ana a little in
the middle he concludes that there iJ
81 100000 in it.
THE OTHER SIDE.
on the other hand, an old Scotchman
by the name Of Marks has been in
there for eleven yearsI have known
him well, and once when he was sick
last fall happened to ask him how old
he was. SiXty-three years, he said.
Then / asked him how long he had
been mining. His reply was, forty~two
yeers-in all parts of the world except
in Australia. In answer to a question
as to whether he had never made his
stake he told me h had never vet
made more than a living. and often
that was very scanty. This, of course,
is the opposite experience, but could
quote scores of similar cases, 80 that [
would not have you look too much on
the bright side.
There are men In that country who
are poor and who viii remain so. 1t has
not been their luck" as they call It,
TO strike 1t rich, but / may say that
that country offers 40 men of great
fortitude, steadiness. and some inteli-
gence an opportunity to make more

NEW YORK, January 19.-Advances In
the stock market were quite general to-
day. The reactionary tendency on yes
terday, due to extensive reaIizations. and
for the short account. ended abruptly
with the opening OF business this morn
ing. The frmness Of the London market.
the reduction in the discount rate
OF the Imperial Bank OF Germany. and
advices from Washington that the Came
ron resolutions on the Cuban question
would be shelved, all contributed to the
strength" OF the local speculation.
Before the expiration of the first half
hour Of business Sugar ran off a point
on the announcement Of a reduction Of
1-lG0l-sc. in the price OF refined sugars,
and the general list yielded l-igS-i per
cent, In sympathy, but the decline was
soon recovered, and as the day wore
along material advances on the closing
figures OF yesterday were recorded.
The recognized bulls gave their special
ties effective support, and commission
houses generally reported numerous out
side orders, the demand being stimulated
by the reactions of IL TO per cent. in
the market. and the inability OF the
bears to shake out long stock. The con-
tinued low rates for money also exerted
an important influence on the security
market.
Consolidated Gas led the upward adj
vance. rising 31-2 per cent, to liS, on
rumors that the efforts making at Al
bany. to reduce the price of gas from
S1.25 to 81 per eco feet will result in the
adoption of a compromise measure.
Sugar, which figured for nearly one
fourth OF the entire days business. moved
up from ll6 to ISIS. on reports,
which are not credited in usually we'll
informed quarters, that settlement In
the war between the company and Ar
buckle Brothers was imminent.
The advance otherwise was equal to
1-4G1l- per cent, outside Of Manhattan
and American Spirits preferred, which
Jumped about two points. Chicago Gas
rose ia. to 791 10, the highest point in
a long time. There has been heavy IN
side buying of this stock for some days,
ON the belief that the bill to permit the
constituent companies to consolidate
will he passed by the Illinois Legislature
I'm the near future.
The dealings aggregated only 221,S3l
shares. but they were well distributed.
Speculation closed firm in tone, at
small reaction from the highest. Net
changes show advances Of 1-24l IL per
cent, Sugar leading.
In the specialties, consolidated Gas
gained IL per cent.
