THE GOVERNING BOARD.
Mokes Movement to Keep Wildcats
Out of the Exchange Pit.

Out of the Exchange Pit.
The governing board of the mining
exchange held an important meeting
yesterday and transacted business cal
culated to purge the pit of the ex-
change from all semblance of wash
sales" or undetermined business. To
begin with, the caller was further in
structed as to his duties, and East
Golden Gate was stricken from the
list.
A resolution was then adopted, pro-
hibiting the call of only such unlisted
stocks as should first be approved of
by the governing board, the intention
being to keep all wildcats from frisk-
ing about in the pit, the list approved
so far being as follows, to which adj
ditionS viii be made from time to time:
Buckeye, Chloride Point, Dalton,
Dexter, Eagle, Emerald, Homestake,
Little Pittsburg, Omaha, Richmond &
Anaconda, Swansea, South Swansea,
Sunbeam, Alice, Opehongo, Lower
Mammoth, Valeo, Golden Eagle, Nor
gan (of Park City,, Lucky Bill, Creole,
Tetro, Martha Washington, Gold Dust,
Century, Rabbits Foot and May Day.
From time to time, as it is desired to
call other unlisted stocks, the govern
ing board viii pass on applications for
the same, and it is more than likely
that number of other valuable mines
and prospects will be added 10 the list

George w. Moyer,s Answer.

George W. Meyer yesterday filed his
answer in the suit brought against him
by Peter Parkinson to recover the pos
session of a certain deed.
The answer says that Parkinson, to
secure the payment of a promissory
note, executed the deed in question, and
that the note was subsequently paid,
but that Parkinson issued an order to
the defendant to deliver the deed to
George H Stephens, who claims that
Parkinson borrowed money from him
and agreed to give him the deed as Sc
curity. Parkinson and Stephens can't
agree as to which of them own the
deed, and Mr.. Meyer says as soon as
they decide to which of them it be-
longs he is ready to deliver it, and he
asks that they be required to litigate
their claims.

Interesting Point As to Where Cause
of Action Arose.

Justice Bartch wrote the opinion and
Chief Justice Zane and Justice Miner
concurred, in the case of George w.

Opinion of an Eminent Jurist.

Ballot reform in New York was neces-
sary, says an eminent jurist, because
mere politicians by trade, who had no
interest in government or politics except
to enrich and aggrandize themselves.
sought perpetual control. There are other
excellent reforms besides those Of the
ballot. Conspicuous among them Is the
reform in disordered physical system
by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
counteracts tendencies to serious disease
bred by q deficiency of vital stamina, ir-
regularity of the bowels, stomach, liver
or kidneys, and inquietude of the nerves.
This sterling medicine, which has tor
near half century won popular favor,
not only for its excellent qualities in
remedial capacity, but also for its service.

of some of the machinery in the
mill being broken, which caused a
number to be laid off, leaving only
fifteen miners at work until the
parts broken can be replaced from
Seattle.
The Sumdum Chief is supposed
to be on the same lead as the Bald
Eagle, but farther up the gulch.
1t employs about thirty-five men.
The price paid for the Chief was
$40, 900, so | am told, and it was

lead as the Eagle it was sold for q
