Such Was the Condition Prevail
ing This Week.
BEARS WERE VERY BUSY.
Principal Auack Was Made 'po"
Daly. West nnly subiee'sd'o
vide Fluctuations

The condition Of the mining snare
market this week was not altogether
satisfactory. A feeling Of Indifference
prevailed in many quarters; there was
lack Of bouyapcy and as consequence
the prices suffered TO more or less
extent This was particularly true o.
the speculation stocks
The investment stocks also suffered
a bear attack. The principal attack
was made upon Daly-west and an at
tempt was made TO bring this blg ParK
CITY bonanza into disgrace. The move
ment started in Boston, where forced
sale OF large block Of the stock was
made. The attacking party took ao-
vantage Of this. To assist them In the
clearing story was placed IN circn-
latIon 10 the effect that the vein as
closed In the DAILY ground would apex
the Quincy VEIN This seemed ridlcu-
lous to those who are thoroughly IN
touch with conditions, but the report
had It's effect. Some local holders were
given the tip and unoaded burying III
again at reduced figures DAILY fluctu-
ated badly during the week. 1t ran up
TO over 81 and afterwards fell little
more than dollars per share, The
stock closed the week with $S.4O BID.
Some call was found for Ajax, but at
lower prices.
Consolidated Mercur held up TO
strong figures being stimulated by the
Forthcoming dividend. Daly-Judge re-
NAMED at practically stationary hgures
during the week Wabash and New
York Bonanza, which have been active
traders on the board for some time
past. are quoted lower than at the be-
ginning u the week. A b-cent assess
ment is pending on Wabash, which be-
comes delinquent on Feb. "a, Century
has held up TO stiff figures II is re-
ported that a bid Of 81 per share has
been made for controlling interest IN
the mine. Lower Mammoth has suffer-
ed a relax and California ends NJ about
where Il started in the week,
The sales for the week amounted 90
1922 shares, which brought 1929 $685..
ToDAY's TRANSACTIONS
The proceedings Of the mining stock
exchange were not very animated this
morning. Trading was slow and prices
at which stocks sold were generally
lower. DAILY commanded the greatest
attention and seemed to be In more de.
mand than any Of the other securities
called. The stock participated In the
sales. opening with board lot going
at 1866. followed by q decline to $40, the
closing bid. Daly-West was not any toe
strong. Lower Mammoth and New
York Bonanza We're both weak. while
Little Chief exhibited a little more
strength than usual. Little Bell was
called but no stock was transferred
Ajax and Sacramento were the only
participants IN the open board transac'
lions
The sales OF the day amounted tC
1850 shares OF q value OF s5l66.I5.

BUSINESS NOTES.

Sugar has again occupied the center
Of the financial stage during the past
week. The popularity of all sugar in
yestments is well illustrated by the fact
that a 81, 0OO,O 900 company was organized
here during the week, and half the
stock subscribed in a single meeting Of
those interested. the remaining half be-
ing placed In the east. Amalgamated
common has broken the record by push
ing two points past the preferred, Com
siderable Utah Sugar has changed
hands during the week at prices rang
ing from $3.50 to 5000 for the preferred,
and S3.S5 to 1896 for the common.

for an annual dividend disbursement OF

Club, Tuesday evening, the directors
were instructed to go ahead and make
out the papers for the purchase of
the hospital building. A sufficient
amount of money had been SUBJ
scribed to cover the matter, and
although there was a little "crawfish-
ing" on the part of some, enough
public spirited men will see it through
to successful completion. AS soon
as the deeds are made for the grounds
and building work will be commenced
in fitting up with all the modern in
provements.

In Memory of Mrs. Annie Newman.

Alas: Must we forever part.
Ny Annie true and kind,
At the sad thought my teardrops start
For Oh! My precious child thou art
Engraved on my maternal heart,
Within my soul enshrined.
All thy kindred round thee weep,
Their hearts are aching sore
To lay thee down in earth to sleep,
In mouiderinE clay so dark and deep,
Whilst silent grasses DER thee creep
To 'waken nevermore.
But o. We place our hopes above,
That we shall meet thee there,
Where thou hast flown, my gentle dove.
Where ar is harmony and love,
Where God can all cur sins remove;
We bow our souls in prayer.
