We are now working an active force

People hesitate at the statement that
the famous food Grape Nuts yields as
much nourishment from one pound as
can be absorbed by the system from ten
pounds of meat, bread, wheat or oats.
Ten pounds of meat might contain moro
nourlshment than one pound Of Grape
Nuts, but not in shape that tho system
will absorb as large q proportion of, as
the body can make up from one pound
OF Grape Nuts.
This food contains the selected parts

NEW YORK. March AR. C. Dun
& Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade to-
morrow, win say:
In its hrst week Of operltlon the new
monetary bill has given titi6iRction at
the treasury and 10 banks. Applications
for new per cents have exceeded S1Os,-
100000, and the net increase in bank
circulation is already over 31O,OoO,0oo
AS the rate at which new circulation
can be issued is limited. except for
banks which gave orders In advance OF
the passage of the BIN. and the issues
at first are largely for the inerease OF
notes to the par value Of bonds deposit
ed, little can yet be inferred regarding
the other increase, though applications
indicate that It viii be large for inter
Tor banks. TheSrelense OF millions em-
ployed in preparation for action under
the new measure has caused in bank
returns considerable changes which are
nominal rather than real. and the mo-
ney markets are undisturbed,

The reported settlement of the carne'
gIe-Frick controversy IS Of the great
est Importance to the iron ana steel In
dustry. A fight between such forces
would In the end have affected prices
and values beyond calculation. while
the combination Of interests now said
to be agreed upon, may prove revolu-
tlonary In its influence. Whether mar
kets Will be Immediately affected is not
clear. AS yet the tendency toward re-
action of prices continues, though in
the Pittsburgh region, Bessemer and
basic pig are strong. But eastern Bes-
semer and grey forge and southern pig
are sold there at prices below those
governing In larger transactions, and 1t
is only the demand for steel making
iron which appears to exceed the sup
ply, Eastern markets are weaker, with
reduction OF 81 per ton at Philadelphia
in some grades. Finished products are
generally unchanged. though sheets rise
ut Chicago with the coming combina-
ton, while plates sink lower at Pitts
burgh and to the lowest point since
April 3. 1899 at Philadelphia.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March a.
The official account OF the tragedy at

tIgate and report, and to have an officer

The affair is a source OF deep regret
to the officials here, but they are I'M

upon the civil authorities Of Galveston
for the punishment Of the guilty parties.

splendid success. The charming young

Report on Mine.
PEARCE, Arizona,
AF,roR, c 1onn
To the President and Directors, Black
Diamond Copper Mining Company.

To the President and Directors, Black
Diamond Copper Mining Company.
DEAR sIRS:-We beg to submit the
following report on the condition OF the
Black Diamond property. We desire
first OF all to correct certain Impress
ions formed by reading our superlnten-
dents reports, which. while not incor-
rect, were misleading, owing to lack OF
more detailed information.
We find the Hoatson cross-cut has
been driven APO feet. At distance OF
22O feet ledge matter was struck, all OF
which carried stringers OF ore Tor n
distance OF about eighty feet, but none
OF which is shipping ore, mainly ledge
matter carrying isolated punches oil
Chalcopyrite and bornlte.
At a distance Of 800 feet from the
mouth OF the tunnel a chute Of ore was
encountered and drifted on for dis
lance OF about eighteen feet. This
chute is about eight and one-half feet
wide and is flrst-class shipping ore,
We are now stopping on this chute and
have arranged to have this ore
treated ut the FL Paso smelter. Ship
ments will be made at once, returns
from which will not be received before
early in April, In advance OF this cross
cut we have so far encountered no
we'll defined ore bodies, simply punches
of sulphide. The Hoatson tunnel Is
now in porphyry, having passed be-
yond the lime belt and we are now con-
tInuIng the tunnel with view Of strik-
ing the back ledge, the groupings OF
which are about fifty feet wide. On
the first drift which follows the foot
wall and runs about n, TO- w, We find
the ledge badly broken. but carrying
punches OF ore for n distance OF fifty
feet. showing their chief values on the
floor of the drift. A cross-Cut has been
started almost at right angles to this
foot-wall drift, and while II had not at
the time Of our visit reached length
greater than eight feet was showing
regularly distributed masses OF bornlte
lis entire width. The AFst DRIFT Is now
being continued with view Of striking
n chute found in the No. 2 tunnel,
which has been driven $50 feet. Work
on the main shaft, started early In the
development OF the property. has been
completed and this shaft has now holed
with the Hoatson tunnel. Work on the
wlnze Immediately TO the right OF the
main shnft has not been followed As
says from the chaieopyrite and boFn'te
found in this shaft have returned 22
per cent copper and 3j,5 ounces OF sill
YER The width OF this ore body Is
about six feet and widening with depth.
While we are very much pleased with
the results OF development work on the
Hoatson tunnel (the mouth Of which is
only nincty-two feet below the collar OF
the main shafD, 1t Is our opinion that
larger and better defined bodies OF ore
Will be encountered at lower Ieyel;
