AT THE VALEo.
Large Body of Ore Exposed In This
Promising Property.

Park City. April 13.-The connection
between the upraise from the lower
tunnel and the winze on the vein at
the ValeO was made yesterday. The
accomplishment of this work means
very much for the property. 1t affords
good air and will facilitate and cheaper
the stopping of ore. The winze from
the upper tunnel to where the connec-
ton was made is 2S5 feet in depth
The ore has continued good TO the
bottom The work of stopping Will COM
mence soon, and regular shipments OF
first-class ore will be made. The vein
also carries much second grade ore,
which will require the erection of
mill at some future time.

is significant of coming activity in that

COLORADO RIVER PLAcERs.
Auriferous Gravel Plentiful Along
This Great Water Course.

A few years ago this western country
was in a furore of excitement over re-
ported finds of placer gold diggings
on the Colorado river in San Juan
county, this state, and an exodus of
mining men and tenderfeet followed,
for the new Eldorado.
The seekers for wealth did not meet
with any great measure of success.
however, and the boom flattened out in
due time. Still, many good claims were
recorded and men who have remained
on the river working their gravel beds
are now beginning TO realize that they
are on the road to success.
In speaking of what has been done
during the past season in the way of
placer mining in San Juan county, the

The transfer of Bingham mining
in Yesterdays Herald, was but a small
portion of a gigantic deal that has just
been consummated by Mr.. Weir and
Sam Newhouse, involving some of the
choicest mineral ground in the "Old
Reliable" which is but the preliminary
steps towards inaugurating another
great enterprise for the camp, which,
in it's magnitude, promises to eclipse
even that of the Highland Boy, which
has been so successfully established
that now there is no doubt but that this
proposition will soon be classed among
the great dividend payers of the state.
In speaking yesterday regarding this
new venture, Mr. Weir stated to rep
resentative of this paper that while it
might be something new with the pub
lie. that with Mr.. Newhouse, who had
done much towards the successful ter
mination of their negotiations, he had
been working on the deal for a period
covering several months. and that the
transfer of titles, as referred to in The
Herald of that date, comprised but a
small portion of the property purchased
by himself and associates, which in

These claims" continued Mr. Weir,
form a solid and unbroken group, two
thirds of which are patented, ald en-
brace within their environments an ex-
tension of the Highland boy ledge to
the northeast. They were not purchased
because of their productiveneSS in the
past, although the Stewards have some
thing of a record in this direction, but
for the reason that in our opinion this
ground is but duplication of what we
have shown to exist in the Highland
Boy, and we feel that by systematic
and intelligent development we can
transform the group into a paying
mine equal in value and productive
ness to the Highland Boy, but it will
take time and the expenditure of large
sums of money. which Will not be
stinted in it's development.

MARKED ADVANCES RECORDED.
Chloride Point Establishes a New
Quotation and Is a Favorite.

The call of the exchange yesterday
was attended with more than ordinary
interest, a special feature of the deal
ings of the day being the continued ad-
vance made by Chloride Point, and the
fact that this popular security regis
tered a new quotation, and made sales
at a figure in advance of any transfer
yet recorded since the listing of this
stock on the board. During the last
two days Chloride Point has made a
gain of at least cents a share, and
at the close of the call yesterday, 1t
was firm at Y bid. and 70 cents asked.
The listed stocks were unusually
quiet, the unboarded securities monop-
olizing the heavy business of the call.
Still, the leading shares were invariably
firm, and sustained former quotations
in good form, the exception being with
Mammoth, which changed hands at
$2.01. Northern Light had solid friends
in the pit, and was in good demand at
2S1s cents, with holders standing out
for 2 cents more. Nothing was done
in Sacramento, which was stationary
and yet firm at former figures.
The unlisted stocks, headed by ChlO-
ride Point, were fairly active, South
Swansea being a hot number, and in
good demand, and during the call of
this security a very pretty play was
made. when one of the leading brokers
dropped 1000 shares to two of the active
dealers at s1.24, the transaction causing
much merriment in the lobby. Later on
another block of the stock found buyers
at SIPS, and the stock was firm at this
figure at the close. Dexter was I'M
changed. but steady, while Grand Cen
trail was wanted at Site, with no sell
ers in the pit.
The transactions of the day were as
follows:
SALES OF STOCKS.
100 Mammoth at s2.01.
100 Chloride Point at II cents.
600 Chloride Point at 711A cents.
100 Chloride Point at Y cents.
