Recent developments in the Gray
mine, OF the United Globe, have con-
firmed the good opinion of those who
have Il knowledge of that property,
and there seems to be no doubt but
that Phelps, Dodge IS Co., have in the
Gray very valuable mine. A four
foot vein of rich oxidized ore was I'M
expectedly struck on the fifth level in
driving to reach the main ore body,
which, if calculations are correct, is
some 300 feet further east, and which
from the first TO the fourth level has
been very large, ON the seventh level
several good veins OF sulphide ore
have been encountered. Very little
work has yet been done
below the fourth level, and the OPEN
ing OF the new ground to the depth Of
40 feet affords great possibilities.
Development has been greatly re-
tarded by an excess Of water, but fur
Their difficulty on this account is not
apprehended We are informed by
Supt. n. S. Berry that the flow of
water in the Gray has decreased more
than 10000 gallons since the first of
the month. and now amounts to about
600, 600 gallons per hOur.-Belt.

REASONS FOR THEIR TRADE
cempetare water and Rail Trans.

You may say tuat something like three
nnd halt million dollars worth OF dry
goods is sold each year by Richmond
sebhers. This statement was made by
Ar. Coleman. Of the AZ. 0ohen Son &
Co. to a D:ss,aLc h reporter yesterday,
ENC Ii gives one pretty good idea or
the general 5oDbing situation here
There Is nc Necessity said he, for
a merchant to go further North than
81 the Gfy-goods line, for the houses here
Carp complete stocks and can furnish
anything from piece OF brown cotton 10
the fines, dress goods
While Richmondss johbing terrftory Is
principally In Virginia, West Virginia.
North and South Carolina, Tennessee
and Georgia, yet her products go to al
most every State IN .-.e Union.
The splendid railroad and water trans
portatioa facilities that Richmond pos
eesses enable her to compete with any
city IN the country, and give her some
advantage In the States above mentioned
Another thing that helps her considerably
Is Inc CO. diai relations that exist be-
tween the iobbers here and their patrons.
They are liberal In extending credit, and
feel mutual interest a serving the needs
ct their customers. This goes a long
ways with the average southern ner-
cheap as others. IL is not wonderful thai
Richmond has In the last few years ct
tracted a great bulk OF .rade from larger
a.la more northern cities.''
The house Of d. Cohen Son & CO. lie

OF the jobb.nE business. Its facilities are
splendid. the building 1t occupies being
the largest Of the kind in the South II

square feet, and is conveniently arranged

and travels sixteen statesmen on the road
IDS concern came to 'Richrnond from Pc
tersbrrg about two years ago, being at
tracted. Of course. by the advantages THE
CITY offered n The 5obbing line Since To-
eating here. Its business has increased
gnarreiously, and If the business OF this
house continues throughout the year as il
