The firm of W. L. Stow & Co, which
went down in the recent market slump,
is expected to resume business about
September Is. 1t was said yesterday
that the firm. would pay practically dol
lar for dollar. Daniel B. Viewer, the as
signee of the firm, has as yet made no
statement regarding it's affairs.
Wall Streets holidays are as late as
the crops. Hitherto the summer has
been one OF unreasonable activity and
anxiety, with attempts at vacation
making broken by summonses to return
to business in such haste that ordinary
railway trains have not been quick
enough in some cases. Hence. now that
there is some hope of few undisturbed
days, those who can are taking the rest
and pleasure hitherto denied them, and
exchange business is stacking up just as
normally it would begin to tend toward
autumn activity. This is distinctly the
tone of the market this week.
After conferences that lasted all day,

from stockholders had failed utterly.
Nevertheless, said the same director.
the conferences in New York had re-
suited IN obtaining substantial support
for reorganization scheme that would
keep the corporation out of the hands Of
a receiver.
The difficulty experienced by large
merchants in getting mercantile paper
discounted on reasonable terms tends to
confirm the opinion of many brokers
that funds are not available for an &C
tive bull market. Several instances
have come to light this week Of impor-
tant commercial houses being forced to
demand money at 61k and per cent In
none of these cases was there any ques-
ton as to the borrowers financial
standing or credit. One case in particu-
lar, where after vigorous statement Of
the necessities involved the money was
obtained at per cent, caused a good
deal of comment yesterday in Wall
Street 1t is the information OF leading
brokers that banking interests are OPP
posed to any general speculative &C
tivity at this time. II is not beautiful
prospect for commission brokers. but
they accept it phiIosophically, and very
few influential houses are encouraging
activity on the part of their clients.
They advise waiting until money mar
ket conditions are easier and the out
come of crops is more certain.

Especial Correspondence of THE NUGGET. ]


 East Cape, Siberia, Oct. 15.-The American miners engaged in prospecting the Tchukotsk pc Ohsula, the concession owned by the Northeast Siberian Company, have found lodges and de posits of minerals that will undoubtedly make this country great quartz camp and attract the attention of the mining world
 A deposit of graphite, which has been demon strated to be of the first quality and of large ex- tent, is among the more important discoveries. This is apparent when it is known that graphite, such as this, is worth, approximately, $2O0 per ton Many claims on the deposit have been To- cated by the miners, and the company has also reserved large area for mining purposes. The graphite is very accessible, the larger body lying within ten miles of the coast.
 As important as the graphite find is, some of the prospectors incline to the opinion that it will be ecpsed by gold and copper lodges which have been discovered.
 What is known as the Swenson lead is located on a small peninsula in St. Lawrence bay, and comprises 12 claims, 1,500 by 600 feet each. Crude assays of the quartz, which is free milling, show it to contain gold, and it is thought it may develop into large low. grade proposition, sim liar to the Treadwell mine on Douglas island. The ore body is very extensive and it's accessi- bty is greatly in its favor.
 The Hogan party has located fine copper silver lead on the Arctic slope. It is well de- fined ledge, F feet in width. The party has also found an immense deposit of graphite and of franklinite, an oxide of zinc and manganese, and red lead.
 The Johnson party has located a lead which gives evidence of containing tin.
 Ole Monsal has located lead of rich free milling ore.
 A. Ericson has located several good looking leads
 The Nadeau party has located promising leads of wulfenite, gold, copper, iron and graphite.
 The want of an assayer has retarded the de- velopment of these discoveries, but Capt w. N. Armstrong, who is now in charge of the mining

operations on behalf of the company, has assured the prospectors that next season this great def ciency will be supplied, and that two assayers, with complete assaying plants, will be sent in
 The Guggenhem Exploration Company, the manager of which is the noted mining expert, John Hays Hammond, has had twelve prospectors in the field, and they have located graphite and other claims
 notice in the Seattle papers, just at hand, that one Johnson has made certain statements which are false and misleading He says, in effect, that ''the American miners were being starved and ill treated by the company's agents here, and that Phil Mclean, formerly of Chicago, was being held prisoner in Siberia, and begged him (Johnson) to notify his (NlcLain's friends, that they might send relief"
 Simple justice to the company demands the unqualified and vigorous denial of these asser- tions. The miners here did protest against one Lippy, formerly agent at East Cape, and he either resigned or removed. As to McLain, his passport for another year has been signed at his own earnest request, and he has good whaling lay from the company and will soon en- gage in whaling His friends need entertain no alarm on his account.
 Johnson has certainly an erroneous conception of the makeup of American miners if he labOrS under the impression that they would calmly sub init to either starvation or ill -treatment. The fact of the matter is that no reasonable man could complain of the quality of the food furnished, and the supply has been sufficient for the demand.
 A. M. Baber is in charge of the East Cape station, and Captain John w. Kelly, the most successful whaler either side, is in charge of the whaling operations Both of these gentlemen are deservedly popular with the prospectors
 Nearly all the miners will winter the out side those remaining in being: Frank P. S1een, Ben Wall, John Olsen, Chris Wilkins, Harry ODonnell, the graphite king Phil McLain, Billy Jones, Charles Carpendale, Wm, Smith, Charles J. Murphy and William David. l.. FRANK SHAW

...B0Wen'S Breakfast.

The following story comes all the way from Siberia, and it is of such nature that it will appeal to the man who has mushed and mined from Peru to Point Barrow. The hero of the sketch is Eddie Bowen, we'll known all over the northland:
 'Go to it! It's coming up! Go to it, gentlemen !' called Bowen to his guests, as he poured some cold water on to last nights coffee grounds. Go to it! Go to it v' continued Bowen, taking cup of flour and stirring some water into it and slashing a spoonful of the mixture into frying pan without baking powder, salt or other trim mings. :t
 In a couple of minutes he threw a slapjack on the table with the cry: 'Go to it Go to it :! there's another one coming up." The captain took it, be- cause the rest deferred to him. Sev- eral forks reached for the second cake, but it went the way of the first one. The graphite king" secured the third. The fourth and last cake went to rank outsider. Theremaining guests helped themselves to the "coffee" and some stray bones left over from last week. Bowen threw the frying pan into cor. ner, and exclaimed: "Gentlemen, don't want any breakfast; I never eat any,"

SEVERE STORM
 AT ST. MICHAEL
Steamers ISOm and John J. HeaIy Wrecked Below St. Michael
 --Passengers Left.

The Empire Transportation Co. $ steamship Ohio returned from St. Michael Sunday morning with five shipwrecked passengers from the Gu- kon steamers Isom and Healy, and S50,- 900 in treasure from various points on the Yukon.
 Purser D. F. Robertson reported severe storms raging vlong the coast at St Michael, making it impossible for the Ohio to land her freight. Over 90 passengers were booked for Seattle by the Ohio but as the storm was ex- pected to last for several days, they were unable to get out to the steamer and were transferred to the Roanoke.
 The N. A. T. x T. Co.'S elegant Yukon River steamer Will $. Isom was driven ashore Oct 18th during a fierce storm one mile below the Canal and will probably become total wreck. 1 The ice burst a hole in her bow, and she had a narrow escape from sinking. | The crew and passengers worked two pumps and after many hours of hard work they managed to beach the steamer. She had 20 passengers and a crew of 40 men, all of whom mushed to St, Michael, distance of ten miles. The steamer was without fuel and considerable hardships were encoun- tered.
 The John J. Healy belonging to the same company, was also driven ashore by the same storm three miles above the Canal. She had a crew of 20 men all of whom arrived safely at St. Michael.
 | F. Green was frozen to death on the tundra two miles from St. Michael a few days ago.
 The following shipwrecked passen. gers arrived on the Ohio enroute to the | outside: Howard Marten, F, T. Hunter

THE AMERICANS IN SIBERIA.

Forty strapping miners, With shovel, pick and drill, Were ripping up Siberia From mountain peak to Till. They broke into the treasures, Down in the soaking mould, Where the hoary ice-king Had stored his virgin gold. They sheared the Laurentian noun
 tains
 With graphite laden deep; They drained the messy marshes Where silver laid asleep. They wakened up the echoes Of the Arctic solitude, Till they felt gnawing hunger. And hot desire for food. They ate of Bowen's breakfast or coffee, cakes and bone: And now the mighty ice-king Holds the treasure all alone.

CASAOEP0GA
A Quartz Mine That is
 Promising.

Speaking of quartz, Louis Olsen, last year, located a promising ledge at the mouth of Willow creek, on the Casade. poga. This year he began the work oi development. The ledge is well de- fined and is Ii feet wide, and the ore carries both gold and silver. While the assays are not high, they are com pletely satisfactory, and it is the be- lief that big quartz mine will be in operation within comparatively short time.

MINING WORK
 THIS WINTER
Operations on the Snowflake Have Already Begun-O Other Claims
 Also to be Worked.

Work on the Snowflake claim on the left limit of Dexter has commenced, Superintendent A. N. Ashley having started operations yesterday with six men. The number will be increased to IS in 30 days or less, and more men will be added as development work pro- gresses. A new shaft will be sunk on the east end, and the work of explor- ing the deep channel, located at depth of 225 feet will be prosecuted during the winter.
 The outlook for good deal of work on Dexter and Anvil benches the com- ing winter is good. Among the bench claims that will be operated extensive ly are the Gambrinus, Leua and the Sugar, besides number of others. As told in the last issue of THE NUGGET, . great deal of work will be done at the head of Dry creek on the divide be- tween Dry and Dexter. Many camps are already being established.
