The Indian Creek Mine.

c. W. Miles of the Indian Creek Min
ing company, left for the south last
night for the purpose of making an
examination of the reported strike in
the Ute ground, owned by the com
pany in Newton district, Beaver coun-
ty. and if everything turns out as
favorably as reported it is the inten-
ton of Mr.. Niles to superintend the
shipment of lot of ore. which ma.
be expected to arrive within week OF
ten days.
According TO the word sent in from
the mine the new find consists of a
5-foot body of ore disclosed near the
surface that carried average values of
$3.50 in gold and q ounces in silver 70
the ton, and the indications were that
the strike was a permanent one.
Newton district is we'll mineralized
and it is the prevailing belief that with
development it would come to the front
as one of the leading gold producing
camps of the state.

Tuesday Evening Next.

A special convocation of the Blue
Church has been called for Tuesday even
ing at G. A. r. hall. at which time a
candidate will be initiated in the solemn
rites of the fraternity. This is fortunate
for had the lodge not admitted any one
between this time and the oath the usual
penalty of an extra assessment from the
High and Sovereign lodge in Asia Minor
would haze been imposed for neglect
The membership here is so large that
candidates are scarce. Almost every
man of note in the city is a member. and
as the selections made are very select ii
is difficult to increase the mem bership.
President Josh Davis will offlciate. with
the regular vice-president of the organi-
cation, High Priest Mccartney, and
Grand Lecturer and Defender of the
Great Seal John +. Meakin. The new
ritual will be applied for the first time
in this jurisdiction.
Brother Davis has been called to Nam
moth to institute lodge in the Eureka

are waiting to be put through the rites.

New York, May 6.-There was con-
siderable strength apparent in today's
market. but it was due rather to the
com bined effort of special influences in
individual stocks than to any develop
ments in affairs affecting values gen
erallv in the market. The narrowness
of the market and it's professional
character left it very susceptible TO
such influences and the fact that the
short interest had been largely reduced
was shown by the small dimensions Of
the maniDulative movements to Offset
the advances. 1t will be remembered
that the prices were sold off to some
extent yesterday on the suppostion
that British holders of American Secu-
rites would reflect the public resent
ment heretofore manifested over the
rejection by the senate of the arbitra-
ton treaty by Offering them for sale.
AS nothing of the kind occurred the
international stocks. on the contrary,
showing rather exceptional strength, il
was natural that there should be some
recovery of yesterdays losses. An
other faVoring influence was that today
was the time set by the exchange
houses for definitely deciding whether
they should make further gold ship
ments as projected. and it was
accepted as an encouraging fea-
ture of the general situation.
Many stock movements. were
largely due TO special influence and
their influence on the general list was
only sympathetic There was more or
less restriction manifest in the move
ment of Sugar. which was attributed TO
political purpose to prevent very man
ifest response in the price to the ad
vancement of the tariff bill.
The net gain on the standard shares
on the average was a large fraction.
The bond market broadened appreci
ably. but few important changes were
scored in prices. The underIone of the
