an estimate by the Newburger Cotton
Company, of Mississippi, pointing to a
crop of II, 100000 bales But their cir
cular made no particular impression, the
market being already staggered by other
bearish conditions. Local bears made
some effort to recover: at one time a
prominent concern commenced to cover,
but in view of the heavy receipts and
the inherent weakness of the market
they subsequently withdrew. In the
afternoon the market showed even more

at Chicago. but Vernal is named as the
principal place of business in Utah J.
t. Mcconnell is to be the Utah agent
of the company with headquarters
here.
Just what the company intends do
ing is not known, but there are those
who incline to believe that there will be
some important developments in the
near future which will add materially
to the business of this section.
The company declares its intention of
engaging in a general mining business.
which will include the operation of all
kinds of mining propositions, either of
gold, silver copper, lead, elaterite, gill
sonite, asphaltum or other kindred min
erals. The capital stock is placed at
$1,000 although it is believed here
that the company has unlimited capital
with which to prosecute their enter
prises.
The management of the Uintah Sum-
nit Mining company are negotiating
with the Rio Grande Western concern
ing rates on ore from Price to Chicago,
and if satisfactory terms can be Sc
cured it is the Intention of the company
to divert the hauling from the north
and direct. it over the Price road for
this winter.
Indications point to considerable ac-
tivity in mining circles in this section
of the state during the coming year.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-12-19

they arrived. no accommodations for
man or beast. no room to build a town
and only a very small hotel now, but
no feedyard or place to keep a team;
inaccessible when the river is high in
the winter and frozen. and difficult to
get to at any season of the year. This
place the railroad company named Bel
KNAPP. Teams that are compelled to go
there try to go down in the morning
and get back uD in the valley in the
evening, but very large majority haul
over Monroe hill down TO Elsinore or
Richfeld. In winter this hill becomes
covered with snow and ice. and conse-
quently slippery. To overcome this
difficulty, the people living and doing
business in the southern part of the
state have combined to finish the
wagon road through Bear valley, so
they can go to Milford on the Union
Pacific, for their freight hereafter,
thereby causing loss of business, not
only to the Rio Grande Western, but
to the people in this part of the coun-
try. What makes it look more strange
is the fact that all the heavy grading
has been done by the railroad company
to this town and but little is left to do
except lay the iron. If they had stopped
in the other valley and not come on up
the canyon. we could have built good
wagon road. over the hill, but now we
don't know what to do

ings. The mill may prove a valuable
acquisition, but its only recommended
ton at present is that il is on the most
convenient if not best site in the main
canyon.
Last Tuesday Manager E. G. .Rognon,
accompanied by J. r. Foulks and other
interested parties, visited the Nam
moth group Of mines and selected a
site for the cyanide mill work on
which is shortly to begin. Parties ia
miiiar with the Mammoth declare it to
be one of the coming properties of
Bingham. An immense area of cyan
idlng ore of the uniform value of So
gold per ton is exposed by a shaft 400
feet deep, and several levels estab
Hshed, cross-cuts in each determining
the vein to be twelve to thirteen feet
wide, all ore. 1t is to be operated by q
thoroughly organized company, nearly
all the treasury stock of which has
been placed at a good figure. If all
that is claimed for the Mammoth group
is true, it win become noted before next
year is out.
At the Showall placer the work of
setting boiler, hoist and two pumps is
well advanced, and sinking will short
~ be resumed. Water raises five feet
in the shaft and comes in pretty lively,
but Will be easily controlled. The shaft
is on the north side of the CANYON,
within q few feet of the old Showall
homestead, and expected to reach the
old river bed.
The Giant Chief owned by George a.
Lowe and now being operated by him,
with George Thomson in charge, has
about fifty tons Of handsome ore on
the dump and will soon make a ship
ment. Reports from the property say
1t is making q fine showing.
Mic Castro talks of FORMING = cOJ11-
pany for the purpose of sinking a shaft
on his Bear gulch placer and working
II on large scale at bed rock. Worked
in a primitive way the ground yielded
him good income in former years.
1t is rumored that the Commercial,
which changed hands a few days ago,
is soon to undergo extensive develop
ment. A good showing of copper ore
was lately encountered, and the prop
erty is making a promising showing.
c. w. Cook 6, Son have just shipped
between fifty and sixty tons of good
ore from their Burning Moscow lease.
Manager Hill is this week making a
considerable shipment from the For
tune and keystone.
The breast OF the new drift being run
in the Frisco is all ore, said to be good
shipping grade.
