RALAKLALA REoReANIZEs.
Subscriptions to New Stock Exceed
assure Four Times Over.

While nothing additional concerning
the details of the reorganization of the
Balaklala company, as given in yester-
days Herald, has reached the city, a
brief message from Clarence K. Nc
Cornick to his father, w. S. McCor-
nick, shows that the big deal was con-
summated on Tuesday and that the
treasury stock was four times over
subscribed and that 81 was being Of
fered in the market, with no sales.
Stock in the new company has a par
value of SIS, but at what price it was
decided to offer the 100000 shores of
treasury stock, no word has yet been
received. As 81 was bid for the new
stock on the New York curb, the con-
clusion is drawn that the subscription
price was probably SIS. Mr.. Mccormick
stated during the afternoon that he
was altogether in the dark concern
ing the details of the business that had
been done

Heavy Liquidation Causes Decline IN
Stocks and Rise in
Money Rates.
WALL STREET I'M FERV0R
DISCREDITED RUMORS CAUSE or
ALL THE EXCITEMENT,

New York, Feb. 2S-There were no de-
velopments in conditions of affairs today
to account in any measure for the heavy
liquidation and the violent declines in
prices which occurred in the stock mar
ket. An active demand developed for
money and there were considerable with
drawals Of credits from the stock mar
ket- But 1t is not probable that restric-
lions on credits were large enough to
Iorce liquidation In any proposition to
an unusual selling which occurred. The
rise in money rates, however, and the
selling which was induced proved amply
sufficient to tOpple over a market which
had become tOp-heavy and easily vulner-
able by progressive growth of distrust
over the level of prices ruling and the
means which have been employed to
achieve that level.
A number of the projects which have
been subjected to Industrial rumorS in
the stock market and the motives for
some of the most active advances and
the largest speculative buying have come
into distrust and, in some cases, actual
discredit within the last few days
An important instance is the project
for the purchase of the ore lands held by
the Great Northern Railroad company in
the interest of the United State Steel cor
poratiOn. The accomplishment Of this
project has been accepted as certainty,
although no authentic or official infOr-
nation on its terms have ever been given
the pubic Reports IN the last Two Gays
of a hitch in the negotiations have
aroused fear that the project might fall
through. But the effect of these reports
upon the prices of stocks concerned in the
project discloses a realization upon the
part of the speculative operators that the
price movements in them has been extrav-
agant and beyond anything warranted by
the promise of the actual accomplishment
Of the proposed projects.
The action of the copper and metal
stocks shows the results Of similar con-
ditions in the speculation. The forma-
ton of the Butte Coalition Mining com
pany and the taking over Of the opposi-
ton copper properties in Montana in the
interest of the Amalgamated Copper COM
pany were recognized as inadequate
grounds for the extent Of the speculative
advances in the stocks concerned Ru-
NOR has continued busy in an effort to
sustain prices with the alleged further
projects since the Montana settlement and
skepticism over the foundation for the
rumors has been gaining force. Similar
cases on a minor scale might be cited
at various points in the list Of active
securities

Mining Notes.

Silver dropped from 66s4c to $3.50 per
ounce yesterday.
A carload of copper ore from the Grand
Gulch property, just over the line in Ari-
iona, was on the market yesterday.
Thirteen carloads of ore from Tintic
and two from Modena were released from
the Taylor & Brunton sampler yesterday
morning.
Two cars Of ore from Alta, two from
Nevada. two from Tintic ard one from
Bingham were reported at the Pioneer
sampler yesterday morning.
Ben D. Luce pulled out for Nevada yes
terday, and his friends expect to see him
land either in Bullfrog or Manhattan and
become a fixture until his fortune is
made.
President Seymour w. TuIloch of the
Sewer Consolidated stated yesterday that
the try-out of the new milling and power
plaTts at the cOmpany'S properties was
about completed He considered that the
profanity period" at camp was about
over, and he therefore expects to go down
and watch the new mill WOIk next week
Superintendent David Lemon of the
Black Diamond properties, at Stockton,
was III own yesterday with another car
load of leaI-silvec ore. While no attempt
is being made by the company to ship
other than ore that IS taken out in the
regular course of development, there are
not many days between cCnsignments, so
the mine must be looking pretty sood.
James Hickey, formerly superintendent
of the Comstock properties at Park City,
has got back to his old stamping ground
in Nevada He was registered at Las
Vegas Saturday last, and the supposition
is that he is going into Bullfrog and the
other camps farther north from there. Mr..
Hickey got his training as an expert
miner on the Comstock lode, Nevada, and
is therefore no stranger to that region.
Lafayette HOlbrook of the Grand Cen
trail and Victoria companies was up from
Provo between trains yesterday He
stated that the retimbering of the Grand
Central shaft would be finished by or be-
fore the tenth of the month. Asked
whether the companies would pass the
March dividends owing to the close-down,
he stated the matter had not yet been
considered by the directors, but he saw
no necessity for holding off payment

Settlements for February Reach
Nearly $4,000, OOO-Dividends
Paid and Coming.
BUILDING A SHELTER TOWN
MAMMOTH MINING COMPANY
TO RE-INcoRPORATE.

The months production Of Utah
mines, other than those belonging to
the big copper companies that do their
own marketing, was $1,974,505, or only
S15s,745 less than for the long month
of January. These are the figures Of
settlement as reported by Mccormick
& Co. Bad roads in the snow engulfed
camps, the closing down of the Grand
Central and Victoria mines, and mat
tiers of that kind have undoubtedly
had much to do with the value of the
months output, but with the opening
of spring all the camps will make up
for lost time.
Dividends were also rather light for
the month, though eight mines were
represented in the disbursement Of
S14S, 800, as follows: Silver King, $780,
900; Beck Tunnel, $4,000; Grand Cen
mento, $1,000; Uncle Sam, S., 900, and
Utah, of Fish Springs, $1,000.
March will be a hummer because, in
addition TO the mines named, which
will all be in line, as usual, there will
be the quarterly distributions of the
DAILY West company, the Consolidated
Mercur, Horn Silver and some of the
big copper companies. The Annie
Laurie will also most likely resume it's
payments, White the oNdHSSd, MAIL
moth and Yankee Consolidated, Bing-
ham-New Haven and several other
properties in the state are known TO be
piling up good SURPRISES, so they are
on a notwithstanding basis whether
the mana gements count it wise to or
der disbursements or not. The Homer
inc viii also be piling up wealth dur
ing the month, and it should not be
late in the year till this great bonanza
property begins the reimbursement of
its shareholders for the patience and
nerve they have displayed in bringing
the mine to the front.

Goldfeld. Feb. 2S.-The visit of Chas
NJ. Schwab and large party of capt.
talistic friends this week is fraught
with intense interest to the whole min
ing industry. Mr.. Schwab is now the
heaviest, as well as one of the most
fortunate, investors in Southern Ne

place in the estimation Of the mining
public He controls two of the largest
mines-the Tonopah Extension and the
Montgomery Shoshone. The first is at
Tonopah and the second is at Bullfrog
The stock of the first company has ad-

UTAH'S RICH ORE.
Less Than Forty Tons Net Company
Over $4,000.

For less than forty tons Of ore, to
be exact, 1888 pounds, the manage
ment of the Utah mine of Fish Springs
yesterday received a check from the
smelter for $4,044.S6, or more than S101
per ton. Advices from the superin-
tendent of the mine, under date of
Monday, stated that 1000 pounds more
Of the same kind Of ore was being de-
Iivered at Oasis to make UP another
carload lot, a lot that will likely be
completed by the end of the present
week
All the good things which J. NJ. Ham

ports from the property, and it begins
to look as though increased dividends
were in sight
