 the fact that the Northeastern merger meant the opening up of the New Mex lico coal fields to this section. and no doubt the introduction of Dawson coal

 FEW DAYS.
Sonanzas Are Firm and Rising-Denn- Arizona Now at $to, With Demand Strons-Fourth Call Deprasses the Black Mountain.
(By Frank J. Graf.l

The Bonanza Circle is gradually get ting stronger. Yesterdays market was even stronger than Monday. All stocks are quoted at bid prices, and it Is almost impossible to get an asked price on any stock with the probable exception of Pittsburg & Duluth. We are at loss to suggest any ideas why this sudden furry should take place at this time of the year. when there is at least a month and a half of the sum mer to come. But as the stocks were depressed some time ago without any apparent reason, so today they are advancing. All stocks are strong and hard to get unless a stiff price sbove the bid is given
 Calumet & Arizona is strong at s91 bid, with little stock offered. We were unable to get an asked price out of Calumet & Pittsburg unrsI late this evening. when it was offered at s25.50. Bids of s23.50 and s24 failed to bring out the stock. Lake Superior & Pitts burg is strong at s31 bid. with no ask ed price. Pittsburg & Duluth does not seem to rally at all, and even the final call has not heped it. JuncuUu is in good demand, but can not be had for ess than $60. and only then, in small blocks. North Butte has talk en on a sudden advance and opened yesterday morning a dollar higher than Monday night. and before the close had gone to $27 bid. with none offered
 Denn-Arizona is still nthe rapid advance, ard today eastern brokers are bidding s10 for 1t with none offer ed.

A Fuel Saver.

The Arizona Copper company at Clifton has just completed new building near the quarry on Chase creek where they will install plant for the purpose of briGuetting the fines of coke and coal. The macnin- cry is made in Leeds. Scotland, and is in successful operation all over Europe and the continent. though this is the first plant of the kind ever put mp in the United States. The present plant, which is being erected as an experiment, will have capacity of twenty-five tons in ten hours. The briquetts will be mixed with pitch, and will be compressed with a pres sure of 2,000 pounds, when necessary. This machine will not only prove 9 great saving of coke by using tho fines, but will also do away with much of the flue dust, which carries away small percentage of copper and is a source of annoyance. The plant can also be used for briquetting flut dust. The entire plant works auto matically. From the time the fine: are fed in they are not again handled until they come out in bricks ready tC be lcaded onto the cars
