 The city council has decided to float the s12, 900 bond issue, recently voted by the town, and the work of grading the streets and sidewalks will at once be started. The idea seems prevalent that the money will be divided between the four wards, thus assuring each an equal appropria- tion.

The attendance this year is very f1attering, and Dr. Montague expresses himself as being highly pleased with the work ac- complished.

BANK STATEMENT
 IS ENCOURAGING
CASH GAIN MUCH BELOW THE ESTIMATES, BASED ON TRACE ABLE MOVEMENT OF MONEY DURING THE WEEK.

New York, October 15.-The Financier this week says:
 The official statement of the New York associated banks last week was a very encouraging exhibit, though the cash gain was much below the estimates which were based upon traceable move ments of money during the week. The decrease In deposits resulting from cor poration loans was so great as to cause an important gain in surplus reserve.
 It seems surprising when the fact Is considered that the estimates showed that the banks had gained heavily in cash, chiefly through the receipts of Aus tralian and Japanese gold and of domes- tic bullion amounting together to S,S79,- 56O. while the net loss on the interior bank movement was much more than offset by a gain of the banks from the sub-treasury that the increase in cash as officially reported should have been only $311, l00 The deposits were de- creased $12,OSS, 300, causing reduction in the reserve requirements by s3,009,5l5, which sum, added to the gain in cash, made $S, 320975, as the increase in surplus reserve to s15,957S75. as against $17, 43S, 250 year ago, and S5.00S, 250 at the cor responding date in 1909. Computed upon the basis of deposits. less those of $32. 262. TOO public funds, the surplus now is $21, ,773,5 $50.

CONSOLIDATION TALK.
Attempts to Merge Salt Lake
and Jim Butler Properties.

Attempts to Merge Salt Lake
and Jim Butler Properties.
At a meeting Of directors Of the
Tonopah and Salt Lake Mining com
pany during the afternoon a call was
promulgated under which the share
holders will gather thirty days later
to pass upon a proposition looking
to a consolidation OF its interests
with the Jim Butler Tonopah Mining
company, the Salt Lake interests to
receive $400, 900, while, as a supple
mental proposition, the originators
OF the latter obligate themselves to
underwrite 100, 600 shares in the
amalgamated company that shall
afford 800, 900 for development uses.
The new proposition from the Butler
company comedies 100, 600 shares
more than was held out when a con-
solidation OF those valuable Tonopah
interests was formerly projected,
and it now looks as il they would be
harmonized and the territory made
to add another to the active pro-
ducers of a camp that promises, with
the all-rail outlet now assured it, to
astonish the world. In the PROPOSE
ton a great deal OF local interest
must be revived, as during the pc
riod of inactivity the market value
of the Salt Lake company's shares
has suffered aUutely. Consolidation
means an almost instantaneous re.
cuperation OF all interests, and Ger.
tainly all Tonopah will exult over the
permanent burial of hatchets that
have been welded with such depress.

OPENING UP
Discovery of Number Of Big
Gold Lodges.
Crop for a Long Distance and Carry
Milling Values Of a Sub.
Stantial Grade.

In Agate mountain, four miles
north Of Round mountain, and about
sixty miles northeast OF Tonopah,
j. A. Moore and ]. G. Barker, OF
Smoky valley, have found what
promises to become a great bonanza.
There are several parallel lodges,
the largest of which is four feet wide;
the groupings of this ledge are fifty
feet in height. Assays made from
samples taken from the different
lodges run as high as forty dollars in
gold on top.
The formation is porphyry and the
ore seems to be the same as at Round
mountain, the values being in the
oxides contained in the ore.
The find is very favorably located,
as large teams can be driven with
ease to where the ore is being taken
out. There is also an abundance OF
wood and water rear by. The lodges
we're first located by Indian Dick,
the discoverer of Weepah, over a
year ago, but as he never had any
assays made or work done, be never
learned the value OF the property,
consequently his location lapsed.
Mr.. Moore and Mr.. Barker are to
be congratulated on their valuable
discovery and for their enterprise in
finding out the true value OF the fina.
Mr.. Moore is an experienced pros
pector and his friends say he is very
conservative, and as he is very much
excited owe the find, we may look
TO see something happen al

At Round mountain work is stead.
lily going on. Dixon and Stebbins,
the owners, have a tunnel in about
forty feet. The ledge at present is
about a foot wide and increasing in
width as the work goes on; this is
not the largest ledge at Round
mountain, hut they hope to cut all
the Lodges in the tunnel they are nov
running.
1t is a significant fact that the
values at these two properties and
at Goldfeld are contained in the iron
oxides, and that the values increase
as depth is obtained.
This country is a paradise for pros.
pectors as there is a mineral belt Of
porphyry ten miles in extent. The
