SUCCESS OF THE ST. LOUIS.
Boston Capitalists Find a Probable
BONANZA at Buffalo Hump.


1t is estimated that at least $500,Oo0 was
the total cash expenditure in the Buffalo
Hump last season, which was practically
the first in the mining life of the district.
Probably the richest showing. says the
Spokema n Review, was in the st. Louis.
one of the large group of gold properties
owned by the Boston, uffalo-Idaho Com
pany.
which cuts the lead at a depth of nearly
100 feet below the apex, and drifts both
north and south on the lead disclose
seventy-three-foot pay shoot. the vein av-
eraging three and a half feet in width.
Nearly hundred assays show that the
average value from one end OF the pay
shoot to the other is .$65 per ton in gold
1t Is a remarkably fine concentrating ore
and reduces to about 10 for !, which makes
the concentrates worth nearly 500 per ton
in gold, certainly bonanza In any land.
Considerable work has been done on the
Mother Lode No 2, Of the Boston group
and thirty-fve or forty feet long. which
will average nearly $50 per ton in gold. In
the latter some phenomenally rich ore has
been found and the lead is strong and well
defined.
The company only had bond on the St.
Louis but within ten days has paid the
money and taken up the bond, This This com ON
over 100000 and now has the property

opinion that they richly deserve their won
derful luck, for they have gone into the
country, Invested their money without
grumbling. and are reaping thousand per

MAMMOTH COPPER NINE.
Two Hundred Thousand Tons of Ore
Said to He In Sight.

All mining men are talking great deal
of the Boscowitz property on Howe sound.
1t has proved of enormous dimensions and
richness The cross-cut has exposed a
vein twenty-six feet wide, running sixteen
in all values. The property known as the
Britannia group was purchased from J.
Boscowitz by II. c. Walters. of Montana,
and j. II. Adams, of Vancouver. Mr..
Adams says when the purchase money is
paid and the mine put in shape 1t will
have cost himself and his associates $780,
OOo ~ A
smelter Is to be erected and a tram
way to the beach three and half miles
distant. Mining men give various esti-
mates of the extent of the ore body. One IS
that 1t would take a Bracket tram with
a capacity of 1000 tons day ten years
to haul out the ore In sight A very con-
sentative estimate is that there are 100000
tons OF SIG ore proved up.
1t seems certain that the Coast cities
have a mine at their very doors of great
richness. which has been worked eighteen
months without the public knowing any
thing about 1t.
A large gang Of men are at present work
ing on the group and more are being put
on daily. ..

Low WHEAT RECEIPTS.


The wheat receipts In Seattle for the
first five months of the season OF delivery
of the 1899 crop have been lighter than
during any one of several preceding years.
They amounted to 1,125,60O bushels. as
against / 400 100 bushels for the same time
In 1898 and 1888 500 bushels during the last
five months of the calendar year 1897. The
reason of the lightness of these receipts
is because the farmers have been holding
their grain for higher prices. and will not
ship, and also because exporters and mil
lers are not buying much.
The receipts by months for the first Ave
months of the last three seasons have been
