The coal deal story yesterday was that
J. p Morgan has purchased the eighteen
mines of Coke Bros & Co for 81 500, 900
and the FIVE collieries of Markle & Co.
for $4,000, 600. II is stated that the next
movement in the consolidating of the coal
interests will be in connection with the
Lehigh Valley line. A. Pardee d Co. and
Coke Bros. & Co. report that their prop
critics have not been sold. but their state
ments are regarded as merely technical.
The coal securities were very strong yes
terday morning, making new high prices
all around. Later they sold off some
what. Reading first preferred sold as
high as 50 3-4 and closed at IS SIS. On
tario and Western went up to 90 IS, Jer-
sey Central advanced to 147. and Della
ware and Hudson advanced to 123 1-2.
The Eries were the strongest features of
the group, the preferred advancing TO 5e
and closing at So and the common ad-
vancing TO q 1-2 and closing at 20 3-4.
II is certain that even these gains have
not measured nearly the actual increase
in value Of these securities on account
of the better conditions in the anthracite
situation, and il is probable that the i'm
mediate advance in the stocks is not yet
over.
The times., 1900-12-18

Opinions are divided, as usual. but many
of the most conservative brokers and
traders have given up the idea that there
is to be any important break before the
holidays II would seem that the big
interests, the Morgan-Hill- Rockefeller
Cassatt Gould Vanderbilt community OF
interests" clique have decided to put
prices up without waiting for any break,
and that they are eminently able to do so.
They are credited with keeping money
easy by lending all that anyone wishes TO
borrow. Ii is even possible that they
were partly responsible for the bank
statement last week. which was so sur
prisingly good. There can be no doubt
whatever that they have furnished the
news recently in the shape of the coal
deal. The entire look of the situation is
that these people considered it a good
time to begin their upward movement.
When the professionals were all bearish
and nearly all heavily short II this is
the situation, ii seems probable that the
movement will extend further, that in
fact the advance of the winter has begun
in earnest Otherwise all the good bull
ammunition of news of big deals will have
been wasted when it might have been
saved quite as we'll as lot for a later
time, when il could be of real service.
The people that take this view of the
situation say that whatever the small
fluctuations from day 10 day may be. the
tendency from now on will be upward, and
they advise buying stocks on all recess
sions. They advise people with good bank
accounts not to wait for the reactions, for
fear they may not come.

Indications Of Activity.

The past few weeks in the market
have been marked by rather desultory
trading. The public seems to be wait
ing, but the wise ones claim that this
policy may prove disastrous to their
hopes, as move is likely to occur at
any time that will be surprise. The
market is like pent up force that may
break loose at any time.
The electric power is nearly read
and the first work to be done is at the
Gould & Curry mill on ore from that
mine. Important Developments may
be looked for in Savage, Ophir, Silver
Hill and in the Gold Hill group in the
west country AS work is to be pushed

| About three-quarters of mile north
of the Northern Pacific railway track,
half way between the city of Wallace
and Mullan, on what is known as Red
dy gulch, John Foss and j. II. Rice OF
Mullan have made remarkable find
which is likely to bring about great
excitement in that district. From all
appearances a new belt of lead carbon
ate ore of tremendous proportions has
been discovered. Although prospec-
tors have been running over the
ground for several years past, and the
country has been we'll staked in every
direction, no large amount OF work
had been done until the first part of
this month, when Messrs. Foss and
Rice concluded to dig on their old To-
cations, which had been left open for
relocation ever since 1892. 1t was in
deed happy thought to return to
their old abandoned love of many years
ago, for after few feet of digging they
uncovered large body of lead car

They at once secured group of five
claims on this ledge, which crops out
plainly over distance of several miles.
This important strike has been kept a
secret for two weeks, but now the en-
tire area has been restaked for miles
around, and lively diggings shows the
awakened interest in what promises
again to demonstrate the enormous
wealth hidden in the bowels of our
Occur d'Alene mountains. Several
we'll known mining men have visited
the new discovery and we're much sur
prised at finding such valuable ore
almost under the grass roots. 1t is al
30 reported that one prominent mine
owner has bought an interest and in
tends to open up a mine, if the splen-
did surface showing is not deceiving
his heretofore unques:ioned good

has also looked over the field and To-
Gated several claims in the vicinity of

Beside the water wheel of Pierce
Evans, by which great deal of arid
land will be reclaimed if the operation
is a success, other preparations are
being made for diverting permanent
supply of water from the Colorado
river near Yuma says the Republican.
In few weeks ten thousand inches of
water will be turned into new canal
running from Yuma % miles to the
international line. The Ludy & Son
canal, 10 miles in length, and capable
of conveying 6,OoO inches from the
Colorado, is about completed. There
are thousands of acres surrounding
Yuma which have not been titled for
want of water, and through this same
belt lies the Colorado river with con-
slant flow of thousands of inches. Not
only are the farmers watching the new
progress of water development which
may prove bon to the mining indu,-
try of southwestern Arizona.
