The exchange is now open for business

sales for the first day amounted to
10000 shares and the following day
46, 900 shares were dealt in with value
of SAG, 900.
The Florence ground resembles a
series of ant-hills these days, each one
fairly teeming with hustle and activity.
The surface is honey-combed with
trenches and open cuts and score or
more of dumps indicate where the busy
lessees are engaged in searching for the
gold bearing veins that traverse this
area of remarkably rich mineral bearing
ground The lease of leases is, of
course, the fnmous Reilly -McKane, and
there every effort is being made to
market the largest possible tonnage
before its expiration next Tuesday
night. Hundreds of sacks, crammed
to the limit with high grade, are lying
upon the dump, and the gasoline hoist
is working night and day, wheeling
and painting as if short of breath, but
yet determined to do its part in this
race of production VS. time. The aver
age daily shipments are in the neigh
borhood of 100 tons, but the daily pro-
duetion is much in access of the amount
and sacks of ore are being piled up to
such an extent that they present all
the appearance Of Notifications.
There is nothing new to state re-
garding the lease" said Jack Camp
bell, one of the trio whose bank roll
has become more then plethoric as a
result Of riling Of its treasure chests,
to a reporter Of the Goldfeld News
yesterday morning; and he was doubt
less right, for nothing in the way o.
high grade values that might be an
nounced from there would create muel
in the way Of a sensation, considering
the values obtained in the past. Th'
ore is being hauled to the sampler a!
fast as possible, but notwithstanding
that fact the freighters are hardly keep
ing even with the output.
Messrs. Van Dervort, Keene, Holzer
Truax and Conklin are operating
promising lease on the Red King CLAIM
of the Florence property A two-foo
vein has been opened up at depth o
55 feet, on which average values of SIS
in gold to the ton are being obtained
The ore according to Superintendent
Oliver of the Florence, resembles tina
being mined in No. 8 of the company
workings, which gives values bette
, than $50 Sulphides are showing in tn
! quartz, and as development progresses
they are becoming more pronounced
There have been repeated reports Q
strikes on the Kendall property Of late
AS near as can be ascertained the fact
/ are these: While prosecuting ON tn
20-foot level vein of ore four fe,
B wide that averages lseven hundre
q dollars to the ton clear across was ei
: countered. The strike was made with
II three feet Of the workings Of the Gar,
Iner-Oddie lease, from which ore to Il
value of $3.50. 600 was extracted durir
the life Of the lease.
i On the Mayne-Goldheld propert
4 which lies on the west slope of Colu
n bla mountain. they are drifting at t
,e so and 105-foot levels. They ha
opened up big bodies Of $l5 to $40 O
