MAY DAYS SOLID WORK.
Extracting a Shipping Galena and
Has Great Future.
Especial CorrespondenceO


Eureka, Aug. 5.-Unlike many mine
managers in this and other localities
who assume a wise. silent air when a
newsgatherer solicits information, Su-
perintendent Muhlenbruch of the May
Day is frank and courteous. Without
any great guSh he explains the situa-
ton, and then extends one the privi-
lege of going over the workings. with
out any secretive reserve. After eX-
aiming the conditions prevailing at
the May Day, one could hardly be ac-
cused of being an enthusiast in pre-
dieting d great future for this mine All
visible evidence warrants the state
ment. Most of the profitable work and
extraction of ore is being done in the
Wine, now over 100 feet deep, and in
drifts run both ways from the bottom
all of which disclose more or less of a
shipping grade of salena ore. Speaking
of the situation, Mr.. Muhlenbruch said
it was most gratifying in every partic-
ular, and appeared to him more prom

able, and the quartz body. which is al

The mining stock market has been
in better tone the past week, and an
improvement is one of the noticeable
features. Brokers in general are san
guine over the prospects of good fall
and winter business. The advances
noticeable for the past few weeks lead
them to believe that the worst of the
summer dullness is over, and business
will be good from this time on.
During the past week Tintic and
Bingham stocks received the greatest
attention.
The old line stocks of Tintic all kept
up TO good figures. The eastern m
weston was attracted TO the camp. and
on Wednesday q, 600 shares of Centen-
nial-Eureka passed into other hands
at the rate of $40 a share. Other stocks
from that camp. such as Grand Cen
trail. Mammoth and the Swanseas and
a number of the low-Driced securities
were in popular demand. Certain
stocks not quoted on the exchange were
active. and an option on $4,000 shares
of Red Wing stock was taken up dt,1-
ing the week by local capital. Other
Bingham securities were sought after,
including the York and Yampa.
Mercur stocks were not SO active
during the week. with the exception Of
Daisy, which made notable gains.
Park City securities were in fair de-
mand. and investors were seeking DAILY.
The sales for the week on the stock
exchange were as follows:

Speaking of the camp in general. Mr.:

reports coming from that section or
great activity in mining. He says there
is no doubt that the mines in that vicin-

in the country for Grand county.
Making late explorations in the south
ern part of the county Mr.. Kirker has
come across a favorable showing of
uranium ore, how extensive it is has not
been determined, but there is every in
dication of its being found in large
quantities.
Uranium is good ore to have. 1t
is found so Mr. Kirker states, in three
different forms in the country he has
been over and he says ore running 20
per cent of that mineral is valued at
over $500.
Mr. Kirker left for home last night
and expects to make further eXplora-
lions in the mountains.
