LONDON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, Oct. THE Evening Post 8
London financial cablegram says: The stock
markets here continued stagnant to-day, but
the tone was fairly good. Grand Trunk was
good on traffic reports More attention wal
given to Americans in the belief that New
York liquidation OF the unwieldy industrials
is virtually complete and that Wall street is
consequently healthier
The Continent again bought Americans.
Operators also lent support. The advance
was led by St. Paul the bull talk of Presi-
dent Miller 1t was also reported that leading
Wall street operators were buying st. Paul
here where the position more easily be
carried New York again sold this evening.
but the reaction not material
To-day's advance of Is in the discount market
here is due TO anticipation of a possible rise
in the German bank.
American bills are coming forward more
freely.

DRIED FRUITS. NUTS. RAIsINs. ETC

The dizziness of this market for fruits is due
to the arrival of large lines of contracted goods
which dealers want to dispose of before work
ing on the arrivals. Peaches are weak.
Apples steady and Apricots firm. Prunes
are selling moderately at the established quo
tations. The East Is not taking hold of Prunes
at all, being skeptical to the short crop.

Receives Government Position and
Strikes a Rich Gold Vein.
Daniel L. Sheets, appointed receiver
of the Durango land office in Colorado,
is another example of being over
whelmed with good luck, like ex-Sen-
ator Tabor.
About the first of January he re-
newed work on an old claim in the La
Plata district, which he had owned for
years without getting any returns
from the property. In less than week
he opened up vein of gold ore that
proved to be enormously rich. Sheets
was offered round sum for the claim
on the new showings, but refused all
offers until last week, when he was
prevailed upon to sell minor interest
in Southern Boy" for sum which
will approximate S25oooo. While the
lucky miner was closing his sale In
Denver he was notified of his appoint
ment as receiver of the Durango land
office.
Mr.. Sheets has already shipped from
his gold vein over $25, 900 worth of ore,
and proposes to develop the mine at a
rate that will surprise the people of
southern Colorado
