II is reported from Boston that the
United States Mining company is pre-
pairing 10 extend its operations into Mex
leo. For many months past, it is said.
the management has been seeking a prop
erty in tho southern republic that could
be used as a basis for the erection Of a
smelter IN that country. Many proper
ties have been examined and turned down
by it's engineers. but il is understood
that q property has at last been found
Its purchase, according to report would
call for an initial expenditure or S5OJOVO.
What the company IS said to want Is
something that will be to smelling works
in that country what the Centennial
Eureka and other properties in Utah are

!n Shasta county, California, is to the
onlp8nY's works near Kenneth.
The United States company stands as
an amen and aVowed competitor Of the
American Smelling & Refining company
IN this country, and as the American
company has the Mexican mineral-bear-
ing regions largely under its control, II
would seem that the United States COM
pany has determined to give the trust 4
run for its money down IN the southern
country.
While nothing has yet cropped to the
surface on the subject, there is a well
grounded suspicion that one Of the pur-
poses of the company in buying the Eu-
reka and Richmond mines at Eureka,
New, was TO better enable it to enter
the Nevada field as a direct competitor
surprise no one in this section to hear
that the company has decided TO establish

STOCK BUYING

Speculative Furore in Wall Street In
Full Force.
CALL MONEY Is CHEAPER

THE TOP.
CALL MONEY is CHEAPER

New York. Dec. 29-For practicable
purposes today was the last day of the
year on the stock exchange. There are
not loans or deliveries on Saturday, loans
made on Friday carrying over until the
following Monday and stocks purchased
on Friday are TO be paid for on the fol-
lowing Monday. AS Monday is the New
Years holiday the settlement for today s
transactions in the stock market Will be
deferred in effect until the turn of the
year This fact was made the basis for
the speculative furore which perVaded
the stock market today from start 10 I'm
ish and carried dealings to the tWO-mtI-
lion share level. 1t was argued that prep
arations for the January first settlement
must now be completed and the stress
in the money market must have done its
worst
AS a matter OF fact there was less Sc
verify in the money sringency today
than on the two previous days. The rate
was carried up to 20 per cent during the
urgent demand Of the first part of the
day but fell back rather promptly to the
neighbOrhoOd of 81 per cent and even
below that Compared with yesterday the
money market was regarded as easy and
today's rates were cheerfuIly and even
eagerly paid.
There Is a deep-rooted conviction
amongst the speculative contingent IN the
stock market that a vast organization
exists among the most powerful capital
lDlD III lit bUuILIJ nllOL Af'l Soy ~
sponsible for the severe stringency IN
money of the last week in the year. The
operators in stocks Of less imposing re-
sources assert their belief that the afore-
said power of the capitalists have ac-
cumulated vast resources in their own
hands with the purpose of squeezing the
money market, forcing out stocks from
other hands and gathering them into
their own with the purpose Of realizing
the great profits which are to accrue
when the enormous waiting demand for
stocks develops with the latter relaXa-
ton In the money market.
1t is with determination to defeat this
alleged plan that the active spectators
have cheerfully paid exOrbitant money
rates rather than part with their stocks.
The belief in the substantial character or
the accumulation of stocks was foStered
by the prominence in the market Of y. S..
Steel, Union Pacific and Amalgamated
Copper. 1t is the common assumption Of
the speculative public that these stocks
market operations Of the most influen-
tial groups of capitalists in the country.
The many rumors which were prevalent
yesterday OF expected measures to re-
lieve the money situation were not veri-
fled in any case today. The market
closed firm and at about the top. The
strength of the market was so general
as to require no specification. The SEN

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Eagle & Blue Bell Nearly Doubles
Value in a DaV.

It was Eagle & Blue Bell day on the
mining stock exchange yesterday, that
stock advancing from 81 the previous day
to $l.76. On the forenoon regular call
there was nothing doing but Eagle q
Blue Bell, and the first sales were made
at $3.50 Information early reached min
ing circles OF the sudden jump, and there
was much curiosity as to the cause. Be
yOnd the fact that much OF the stock
was being bought for Boston parties.

EAGLE & BLUE BELL JUMPS.
Eastern Orders for Stock Advance
Price to $1.76.


As & result Of a flood or orders from
New York stock in the Eagle & Blue
Bell company sold up to S176 a share
prevailing price the day before. The
Bingham Consolidated company owns the
control Of the proposition and an effort
was made by prominent brokers here to
learn from the Boston end what had
caused the demand for the stock. The
effort resulted in failure, but word was
received that the stock was much sought
after by New York curb brokers.
Assistant General Manager IT. H.
Green OF the Bingham Consolidated was
asked during the Afternoon what he con-
sidered the cause of the movement, and
he confessed to being entirely in the
dark. Every days work means just so
much OF an addition TO the already large
ore reserves, but nothing in the way OF
sensational development has been re
ported from the property for some time
past
There seems to be something behind
the movement of the stock, which is
practically unknown in the eastern mar
kets, where it has so suddenly Jumped
10 the front. IL was never listed outside
OF Salt Lake and the stock was so close
~ held when the Bingham company Sc
cured control that only three or four
stockholders participated in the deal.
Others might have done, but they de-
clined on the ground that the mine was
worth great deal more than il was SELL
ing for 1t is thought possible that n
deal OF some nature involving the Bing-
ham Consolidated may be incUbating and
that a larger percentage of the Eagle &
Blue Bell shares are being sought to
meet conditions Developments are ex-
pected.
