New Friday and Saturday, March 13 and 14, at the Hyperion theater, the worlds greatest illusion dancer, La Loie Fuller, will make her final appearance in New Haven for several years prior to her trip around the world. Miss Fuller is fully justified in considering herself the pier of all dancers because it was she who invented the famous ser pentine dance and completed several other art classics, including her latest and greatest effect "LArchang." This dance created a tremendous sensation in Europe and has been presented privately "by command" before nearly every crowned head of Europe. This lady's performance here will be perfect in every detail, an exact reproduction of her performances which captivated the artistic Europe. A bargain matinee will be given Saturday, at which prices will be 25c and soc. Seats on sale Wednes- day. Prices $1, 75c, 50c.

company of the Irving Place theater will play Gustav Freytag's we'll known comedy, Die Journalisten." This troupe has recently given the play with great success in New York. At the last performance the whole house was sold out two weeks in advance. The inter- est in the public readings of the play by Professor Gruener and the hearty cooperation of the patronesses gives the assurance that Director Conried will be no less enthusiastically received than in former years. It is to be hoped that MT. Conreid's new duties as man. ager of the Metropolitan Opera house will not interfere with the annual pre- sentation of a German play in New Haven.

The Financier this week says;
The official statement of the New
York associated banks last week
showed a loss Of S3,747, 500 cash reserve,
instead of 1920 400, the amount of loss
which. was estimated upon the basis OF
the traceable movements of money our
ing the week This discrepancy or
more than Sc. O00. 600 between the Of
fetal and the estimated loss cannot be
a accounted for. even on the sUpposition
that IL was due to the operation of the
average system. The assay Office paid
during the week 81 .112, 419 for imported
gold. which payment was not included
in the estimates. moreover, the who're
OF this disbursement should, II Would
seem. have been accounted for in cash
receiDts bv the banks because the pay
ments were distributed throughout the
entire week. There was a transfer TO
San Francisco on Friday of $700,ouO'
which did not appear in the estimate,
hut this would count only for an aver
age Of one day, or One-siXth of the
amount
The estimated loss in the previous
week showed a decrease Of $4,z6o1lCu
cash while the official statement IN
dicated a reduction of S2,9l3,2O0. 1t IS
quite possible. therefore, that some OF
the loss in the week ending Nov. Il
was brought over into last week, thus
partly accounting for the above noted
discrepancy of S3.000000 The deposits
decreased S6.oS1700 last week and the
required reserve was thereby reduced
81 500. 425. Deducting this sum from the
loss of cash. leaves S2.22tbt9 as Jhe
decrease in surplus reserve to $3,Sll'59o
committed upon the basis of deposits
less those of $36.SO1 100 of public funds
the surplus is S13.111,625.
Loans were decreased 81. $40. 200. prob
ably rejecting the average or cans
made late in the week ana also hquida-
ton of speculative accounts on the
stock exchange: borrowing upon ster-
ling investments was most likely not
large enough to have an offsetting IN
duence. Comparisons Of loans with
the nrevious week show that six of the
larger banks reduced this item by
sA0O 600 net. Cash changes show loss
bv six banks of $500. COO Though the
surplus reserve of the banks IS low

therefor should be reflected in the bank

FROM THE BOSTON END.
United States Shareholder Discusse
Jonn Hays Hammond.

john Hays Hammond.
! A large stakeholder of the United
states Mining company is quoted by a
Boston paper as saying:
/ An examination of the United States

mond has naturally led to rumOrs, and
/ denials that Mr.. HammOnd's examina-
{ ton Of the properties has any bearing
upon the ownership of the property are

united states Mining properties was
part Of a deal made by Mr.. Evans a
year and a half ago when he sold Mr.
Hammond q part interest in his Cali

Mr.. Evans had the first call on his serv-
ices.
There is no thought on the part Of
any Of the large owners in United
states Mining of parting with their
shares. They are perfectly satisfied
with the showing Of the proposition to
date. We have a great big property
capable Of earning at least 50 per share
for the stock under adverse copper
trade conditions. The fact that we will
earn over $1,000. 900 net the first year of
our active operations after the annoy
ing troubles always incident to the
starting OF a large mining proposition

Market Has Shown Marked Improve.
ment in Tone During the Week.

While the volume Of business has not
been as large as it was for the pre-
ceCing six days, there has been a
marked Improvement in the tone of the
local mining share market during the
past week Sales amounted to us. 1872
shares Of stock, with a selling value of
$S0,S14.95. or 26,042 shares and O,37311
less than during the week ending on
the 14th. Consolidated Mercur Is sell
ling for 15c a share more than it was
bringing on Monday and but little of
it is being offered The single transfer
yesterday was S5c. Century has also
been very strong, the sales which have
been made all being at Gao to 85c
DAILY West. which was sold at S31 in
Boston and $3.50 here Monday, is now
commanding $3.50 to $50. Proft-taking
sales Of Daly-Judge have caused that
stock TO fluctuate considerably during
the week, though the close finds it near
~ as high as il was on Monday. The
excitement attending the new disclOs-
ures In the mine has worn off, but the
property itself never looked as well
and, as the ore bodies are opened up on
the different levels and production in
creases, the market in these shares viii

just where the greatest amount of pro
mt is to be obtained. The problem is
now wei along toward final solution.
A little Grand Central changed hands
early In the week at prices ranging
a few cents under the 81 mark. but
buyer and seller have generally been
too far apart to do business. May Day
has moved up from 6 5-Sc to s lie.

close to 25c, while Star Consolidated

Tetro has strayed but little from the
3Oc mark. and the same is true of Yam
kee Consolidated. at 40c
More trading than usual has been
noted in unlisted stocks during the
week, a fact that is taken to indicate
that more attention is being paid the
market by the public. Stock i'm the

DIVIDEND OF
T0NOPAH Mine
Nsvada-AIpine Company 0peHs
the Ball With $40, 600.
CYANIDE MILL FOR LA SAILS
CONKLIN SAMPLER QUITS
AFTER 80 YEARS.

The first dividend to be declared by
a Tonopah company was that of the
Nevada-Alpine corporation which yes
terday declared its intention of paying
$4,000. or 1Oc a share. on the issued
stock on the fifth day of next month,
with transfer books to close on the Both
or this month. Tt is only a few days
over year since NJ j. O'Meara. acting
Tor himself, his brother W. y. O'Meara.
and II. j. Lynch. bought the prospect at
a snug figure, paid spot cash for it, and
then notified his partners Of what he
had done That his judgment was not
at fault Is shown by the action taken
by the directorate yesterday az the
close Of the cOmpany's annual meeting.
Reports were submitted at the meet
ing showing that the company had no
outstanding accounts or unpaid debts
other than those represented in the Op-
Grating account for the present month
while the treasury was I'm a healthy
condition and the mine disclosing large
bodies of rich ore. with everything
pointing to their being largely aug
mented during the year to come.
The showing was one which is not
made by one mine I'm 100 during the
nrst year of it's existence. and Mr.
Z. Meara has every reason to feel proud
OF the reward which mas followed his
prize on such short acquaintance as he
old- In October Of last year the Alpine
was the merest prospect. Today it is
one Of the big mines of the TonOpah
Iegion-a mine that is making money
through the sale of ore to the smelters
of this valley which is averaging about
go ounces silver, A. per cent lead and
little gold per ton.
At the election following the adoption
of reports at the meeting, the follow
ing board of directors was chosen to
serve during the coming year: NJ. J.
O Meara, w p. O'AIeara, f. Z. O'Meara.
T. J. Lynch and d. A. Swan, jr. The
organization of the board followed NJ
j. O'Meara being named as president:
N. J. Lynch, vice president, and W F.
. Meara, secretary and treasurer.
As stated above. the first thing the
new board Of directors did after organ
izing was to declare the dividend Of
$4,000 When IL is known that the first
shipment Of ore from the property was
not made until the 29th day of last De
cember. the record for production seems
an the more remarkable. The company
Is still earning a large amount. net
every month and. Notwithstanding the
big plan Of campaign marked out for
the property during the next twelve
months, the assurance IS given that

OLD LANDMARK GONE.
Conklin sampling Works Closed
After Thirty-three Years Run.

After Thirty-three Years Run.
After a practically continuous run
stretching over thirty-three years of
time the shutters were nailed up at
. the Conklin sampling works yesterday
and business indefinitely suspended.
The plant which was built by man
named Johnson, was originally run
on ores from Stockton and others
OF the early-day camps. Then il was
bought by J. c. Conklin and run by
him for many years.
Finally IT went into the hands of a
company, of which G.. B. MARYLAND was
manager and chief owner, and it con-
tinUed to serve the producer as a me-
dunn through which to get his product
TO the smelters. Mr.. Marklands III
health and business reverses finally re
suited in the plants falling into the
hands Of the Bank Of Commerce and,
since the retirement of MARYLAND, Z.
W. Wilson has done what he could to
keep the business alive. What with
the samplers put in by the smelling
company and the operation Of more
modern custom mills, the business of
the old COnklin has finally dwindled
TO a point where II was no longer pos
sible to operate IT at a profit, and Fri
day evening Manager Wilson issued
orders to superintendent w. r. NAPLES
to close down.
For the past eight years Mr.. NAPLES
has had charge of the mill and un-
der conditions that would have made
a less resOurceful and persevering man
give up the proposition. he has kept the
wheels moving and done everything
within his power to make the plant
more than earn its way. With the
management of the company's business
he has never had anything TO do. but
for all that he has never allowed an
opportunity to slip by that would in
any manner, help to keep the thing
moving. and it can be said I'm all
truthfulness that had it not been for
his efforts the plant would more than
likely have gone out Of commission
long before now.
The Conklin sampling works Is one
