Nevada stocks o. X.

j. H. Macmillan of the Bankers and
Brokers Co., Inc, of Manhattan, sent
the following telegram from New York
City to the Manhattan News, last Sat
urday: "Greatly contrary to expecta-
ton. Southern Nevada mining shares
did not break following the San Fran
cisco ruin, though copper securities
have declined many points during the
past several days. Southern Nevada
stocks have held firm and in many in
stances here they have advanced. Tor
opah Mining climbed several points,
carving some of the other Nevada
stocks with it yesterday, and the feel
ing on Wall street and amongst brokers
and stockholders of Southern Nevada
mines is most bullish. There is agreat-
err tendency than ever to get out of
industrials and into Nevada's leading
spirits of gold and silver mining.
Schwab's open friendliness to Southern
Nevada and the re~-assuring of Malcolm
L. Mcdonald, who is here and in whom
eastern mining men have unbounded
faith, lent strength to the New York
curb and mining exchanges. Nevada
shares are higher all around than two
weeks ago, there being a project on
foot amongst capitalists here to quickly
install a two hundred thousand dollar
mill at Manhattan. Following are a
few quotations of local stocks: Tono-

The HOInestake.

Con 0'Donnell and B. D. Milan left
for the Bullfrog district last Tuesday
to inspect the Homestake mining prop
erty acquired by them sometime ago.
The Homestake adjoins the rich Gold
Bar mine on the north and the big
lodges that traverse that property run
through the Homestake. The shaft is
now down 260 feet and will be sent to a
depth of 500 feet. The ledge, which is
rs feet wide is being cross-cut at a
depth of 225 feet. The values are in
gold. The ore is free milling and is the
same as the Gold Bar.

Nevada Prospects Bright.

Maj. w. A. Stanton was among the
arrivals from Nevada Sunday, and i'm
mediately upon reaching the Wilson he
was surrounded by a number of local
mining men who are interested in that
mineral belt. The major has become
heavily interested in a number of pro-
ductive properties in that section, and
it is said by his friends that he has
amassed a considerable fortune from
the investments that he was fortunate
enough to make at the very outset Of
several of the camps that have since
become famous with enormous wealth
that is revealed in the mining proper
ties that have been opened up.
On telling of the conditions of Nevada
the veteran, who has been one of the
highly respected citizens of this city for
a great many years, is very much
pleased with the opportunities that are
afforded at the present time, and seems
to think that the future of that country
was never brighter. Salt Lake Tribune,

Nevada Making History.

What has occurred in the past two
months to make American mining an
even greater proposition than ever be-

of newspapers. The bringing into pro-
