offerings We're being pressed at lower rates in the

several days and that large shipments OF stocks
Will be made this week
The news in regard TO the Presidents condition
was regarded as go favorable as TO warrant gem
eral buying of stocks. The London cables and
arbitrage buying made the strong tone at the
opening, and there were heavy buying orders at
strong combination OF local financial interests.
This buying was chiefly through T. j. TAYLOR a.
Co, who took large blocks OF stocks ali around
the room. When s per cent was bid for call
money traders started selling and caused a sharp
reaction. but this selling was quickly exhausted.
and after noon many stocks made material ad-
yances. In the late trading reports circulated
on tie Stock Exchange THAT q meeting of the

dividend on st. Paul on Thursday caused gen.
eral buying of that stock.

calling Of loans and from the requirements OF
purchasers OF stocks on Friday and Saturday,

lending on a large scale at i per cent. placing ut

additional leans later in the day. These loans
made for the Hanover Bank before the bank
POOLS money appeared. The supply from the
bank pool was apparently more than enough to
supply TIE demand. and for the greater part of
the day the call money market ruled at 5 to S
per cent. with nearly all the loans at 6 per cent.
Later on large loans were made at 4u4la per
cent. and the close was easy.

GOLD MINES
Rich Find Near Pueblo
Colorado.
=. PEOPLE FRANTIC
I
And the Boom Resembles Days
Of Forty Nine

Pueblo, COL, Oct. 2e.-The wildes
excitement reigns in Beulah, 20 mile
southwest Of here, where rich gold de
posits have been found. There is M
question that the discovery Of gold ii
genuine and that this vicinity IL
about to have a mining room such as
prospectors have been predicting fOl
several years.
For long time it has been declared
that there are god deposits in the
lower range here. The results shown
in the recent strike bear out all these
predictions.
Tue town of Beulah consists of 200
persons and is frantic and every person
strong enough to carry pick is out
in the hills today. Old Inhabitants,
who have seen booms before, and have
learned not to get excited over false
al lrm, are as enthusiastic as any of
The newcomers. They say they are
not surprised and have pinned their
faith to this region for many years.
The strike was made IN the follow
ing way
About ten days ago G. Protexter,
who had been prospecting near Beu-
lab for several months, discovered Il
body of rock on the west side OF Sig
nal range that appeared to carry gold
He knocked Oft piece Of the rock and
sent it to Pueblo Smelter. An assay
was returned on last Saturday, show
mo TAO In pOld to the ton. Unable to
restrain his joy, he told the story be-
fore be went back to the hills.
Pursuing his explorations, he came
upon a deeomposed rock, which crum-
bled to dust and turned white when it
was exposed. In the yellowish white
substance was dull colored dust that
proved to be gold. The assay on this
returned $l69 to the ton.
In the meantime every man ia town
rushed to the spot to stake out claim.
ore than 100 claims Lave been locat-
ed, and the hills are covered with
prospectors trying to get chance t
| locate.
| Several score arrived there from
Pueblo today, and every road leading
to the new fields is crowded with
boomers pushing on to the new 'Yrom'
,Sed land " II is estimated that Beu
lah's population has been increased II
2000 and more since the discovery. and
the town bears every characteristic OF
the old mining town days when the
fever first hit Colorado.

of the play.
The substitution of Putnam Bond
in place OF Alden Bass as Adoniram
Simpkins, the pious fraud, was dis
appointment to many Of the audience,
who remembered Mr.. Bass fine work
In "The Poor Relation" last year.
The others of the company are in the
main satisfactory and the village
choir rendered some good music. The
scenery IS fresh and new and the
costumes in keeping with the char
acter and incidents of the play.-Bur-
