The Herald's correspondent learned
from H. G. Shaer. of Midway. today, that
there is more prospecting in the Snake
mining district this season than any
former year in the past ten years. Every
foot of ground in the district is located.
and the ground IS fairly dotted with
fresh mounds Your correspondent be-
neves that there are fortunates in the
mineral lands in the country adjacent TO
Park City greater than in British
Columbia or Alaska. But il VIII take

absolutely helpless, no matter how eX-
pert miners they man be- Here is an OPP
portunity for labo- and capital to join
hands. Each will be able to inaugurate

harvest.
There = considerable renewed activity
among the property owners in the Beaver
creek country IL miles east of Park City.
1t IS reported TO me that rich strike
was made in the Summit a few days ago
at q depth of 40 feet The report states
that the ore found in this new strike is
rich in silver and runs very high in lead.
At O'Clock last evening. the gearing
of the line shaft of the Ontario mill went
TO pieces. necessitating a shut down.
Fortunately duplicates of the parts
broken We're on hand and il is expected
that the mill will be started up again this
evening. The shipment of bullion from
the Ontario mill today was 50 bars of
base bullion, equivalent TO %. 716 ounces Of
fine silver

New York, June 22.-RObert p. Will
bur, an American Presbyterian mis-
sionary from PeOna, India. has just ar
rived in New York. In an interview
he said:
Tine plague is abating in India. but
the famine is at it's height The plague
has been as bad in Peona in proportion
to its size, as in Bombay. where L. 900
have died, but it is lessening. It moves
in line, like cyclone, and was
travelling northwest when l left in
March None OF the people in a city
through which the plague passes will
get it unless they are in the plague
belt, or some one who has taken the
malady carries it across to another
quarter. 1t originated, no. one knows
how, in house in Bomb bay on a wide
street. The conditions of the building
were far more sanitary than thousands
of others. A Calcutta doctor who
looked at it said: Well, if the plague
can start in a house like that what
will it do when it strikes Calcutta
One cause of the spread of the disease
among the natives is said to be their
practice of walking bare-foOted. Even
insects transmit il. 4 friend of mine
entered a house where a plague patient
had died to get some of the soil for
analysis The government officials re-
fused TO let him have il. Receiving per-
mission to 'disinfect it. he threw some
sugar on it and afterward took up the
sugar. together with some ants. which
had collected there. in his handker-
chief, and carried them of. Every one
of the ants took plague microbe with
it.
The famine is the great thing there
now. This morning 1 got a letter say
ing the people were dying by hundreds.
IS they have no seed TO SOW. even If
rains come, and their blowing oxen
have died. There is plenty of grain in
India, but the bunyaps. or merchants
have it stored IN in hidden pits and
won't sell it exceOt at ruinOus prices
Some have THOUGHT that a cause o.
plague was the putting on the market
of grain 20 years old. The government
made a great mistake in not beginning
their aid earlier. The trouble IS with
the native OVerseerS. who roo the peO-
pie frightfuily. They are paid in pro-
portion to the number Of people they
feed and mix earth in the grain to
make their supplies go a longer way.
] know of one man who got grain to
distribute free and sold il at auction.
The people are mere skeletons, living
on root and grass. Their troubles have
bred queer ideas in them. Some of
them think Queen Victoria has sent the
plague IN revenge Tor dauDlnS OF her
statue in Bombay Many of them re-
fuse to go to the segregation hospitals.
because they think it is the intention
of the government 10 put them out of
the way when it gets them there In
some cases they have actually shut up
their houses with dead bodies in them
and searching parties have been
organized to unearth the corpses. The
money relief offered hitherto for the
distress in India is merely a drop in
the bucket"

On Wall Street.

New York, June 22.-The stock mar
ket today again gave a demonstration
of its astonishing capacity for sustain
ing increase of prices with only tenn
porary pauses and trivial reactions. The
maturing plan of the committee of di-
rectors of the Chicago & Northwestern
for refunding the bends of the company
so as 10 effect a saving which may
be applied to the stock, has become the
central object of interest in the market.
The upward tendency of prices which
radiated from this stock. ultimately
permeated the whole market. carrying
even the industrial stocks, some of
which had sagged during the morning.
TO a higher plane. NOrthwestern's eX-
IRENE rise was q.
A striking feature of the markets
course was the comparatively small
transactions on which prices rose.
Southwestern railroads were particu-
larly strong on account of the good out
look for business in that section. Con-
tinued good crop reports sustained the
markets, particularly the grangers. The
announcement of a $4,000 shipment of
gold for Tuesdays steamer and the
probability that more will go in few
DAYS, rather facetious alarm on the
subject.
Trading in railroad mortgages were
in considerable volume and some strik-
ing gains were made in a few issues.
The general tone of the market was
good and free purchases were noted of
the prominent international mortgages
for continental account. The aggregate
sales were 81 .S09, 600.
Governments were more active but
without essential change in values. The
sales were 1000.

Strike in the Phoenix.

The Herald is informed that an i'm
portant strike has been made in the
Phoenix mine. at Bingham, during the
past few days and that the outlook
for this great property is now brighter
than ever.
This stlike. according TO The Herald $
informant, was made in the face of the
lower tunnel at point 100 feet in, and
consists of a body OF high grade mineral
from two to three feet in width. and
the magnitude of the discovery can be
easily understood when il is stated that
this will give the company from 500 to 900
feet OF stoping ground on the dip of the
vein to TIE surface.
The mine has been worked by leases
during the past winter. but now the COM
pany has resumed control. and it is under
