MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Weeks Trading Was Light and Mar
ket Unsettled.

The best thing to be said Of the week s
trading on the local mining exchange is
that, considering the dullness. prices held
up exceedingly well. The unsettled con-
dltOn OF the eastern markets, the uncer-
tainty as to how the San Francisco dis
aster was going to affect banking and
try, have had the effect of keeping trad
ers out Of the market. Reports coming
from the east are of an assuring charac-
ter, however, and business ought to begin
70 expand again during the coming week.
1t was evident that orders were beginning
to appear for Nevada stocks yesterday,
and they were not all selling orders,
and Montgomery Mountain were traded
IN, but these were the only stocks in
which buyer and seller could get together
on during the day.
The total number OF shares changing
hands during the week was 275,6SS. the
selling value being S13S.0S4. "A. yesterdays

AT SILVER KING CONSOLIDATED
superintendent J. n. KeetIey Gives
Up the observation-disclosures.

Because he did not feel able to give
the proposition the personal attention
which he felt it was going to demand
from now on Superintendent J. H
heetIey or the Silver King ConsoIi-
dated company's Park City properties
mas after much importuning, finally
persuaded Manager Scion Spiro to ac-
cept his resignation. Mr.. Keetley has
not been IN good health for a long time
and though he feels much better than
he did last fall and winter he does not
reel IKE taking the chances which close
attention to the development of the
property at the high altitude at which
the mine is located would involve from
now on 1t Is not only his personal
health that Mr.. Keetley considers in
the step he has taken, but the advance
ment OF the interests OF his company.
While there was nothing to do but d.
rect the work Of equipping the property
ana sinking the shaft he could look
after ii without great risk to his health
but now, with mine opened to close to
I,2OO feet and the starting of levels
and other details Of development, It has
reached that stage where close atten-
ton on the part of the man in charge
will be imperative. Mr.. Keetley does
not feel equal to the task. He is a
prominent shareholder in the company
and will continue to serve as a direc-
tor, fact that is gratifying to Mr..
SprO.
AS a successor TO Mr. Keetley Mana
ger Spiro has selected Newton A. Dun
yon, superintendent of the Little Bell,
and a. man who has made a reputa-
ton in the development of that rich
mine. AS the interests identified with
the Little Bell and the King Consoli-
dated are considerably interviewer, the
new superintendent Of the King Consol-
idated will continue with the Little Bell,
dividing his time between the two
mines, which are not far from each
other. The change will not disturb the
close relationship existing between all
parties concerned in the least. but it
will give the King Consolidated the
close attention it will require in the
future.

Director of Company.

Several weeks ago the directors and
heavy shareholders in the Wabash
company asked all shareholders to Join
them in n pooling agreement on the
stock of the company for legitimate
business reasons. over seVenty-ffve per
cent Of the outstanding stock was
turned in. but a few Of the sharehold-
ers who thought they saw a chance to
make capital out of their holdings by
declining to enter the pool, kept aloof.
Because OF their action the directors
yesterday dissolved the pool, thus plac-
ing every shareholder on an equal foot
ing as far as disposing of his holdings
is concerned
Owing TO his desire to move to Provo.
Director William Hatfield rendered his
resignation at the meeting. While the
directors were loath to give Mr.. Hat
field his release, it was deemed adyis-
able, in order that a quorum might be
residents OF Salt Lake and "setatable''
for meetings on short notice. For that
reason was Mr.. Hatfield given his free
dom, the vacancy being filled by the
election OF J. Leonard Burch Of the
brokerage firm OF q. NJ. West & Co.

ELDREDCE WAS
A HOT NUMBER
Noted Character ImpersonatOr De-
livers the Goods in Huge
Packages.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Mr.. Gilbert A Eldredge, the
noted character impersonator, is
the best one-man show to pass
this way. He's a "hun " He's
a hot number. He's worth the
price. He gave a large audience
a treat at the court house last
night they will not soon forget,
He gave the people a deep pain
in their sides, all due to laughter,
He caused people to smile who
perhaps never smiled before. II
was the best pill for the blues we
have ever swallowed.
Mr.. Eldredge favored the aud
ience with an extremely varied
and interesting repertoire; nearly
all the sketches and impersona-
tions were given in costume ano
his rapidity and dexterity in
changing not only his costume
but his entile appearance was
not the least remarkable feature
of the entertainment. And moi
only his outward appearance, but
his voice changes, to suit almost
any part from old woman to small
boy, or mature man.
The selections he gives for his
humorous work are of a high or
der, never trashy or silly
or leaving a bady taste behind
but full of good, wholesome fun.
In his serious representations he
chooses rather the classics of the
language such as "The Merchant
of Venice" Enoch Arden" and
"Eben Holden"
He seemed to have a native
talent for mimicry and character
ization, and is in his element
when dressed up" to represent
SOME character.
Again let's doff our hats to the
Fortnnghly Club, under whose
auspices Mr.. Eldredge appeared
here. Such entertainments are
treats we seldom are given op-
portunity to witness.
