The first visible free gold to be
struck in the Mohawk was unearthed
this week in the shaft Of the Mohawk
Leasing company. The free gold oc-
ours in stringers of an inch wide in rock
remarkably rich in itself and is from
a depth of 225 feet. A large chunk of
the rock is on exhibition in the John
S. Cook bank and is declared by many
to be identical with the richest ore from
the Reilly lease on the Florence. The
hanging wall of the ledge was struck
in the Mohawk Leasing company's shaft
at 165 feet and although go feet ad-
ditional depth has been made the foot
wall has not been reached. The lessees
feeling that they are already confronted
by more ore than they can take care of,
have cut their station in the ore at the
225-foot mark and are prosecuting.
About one carload per day is being
shipped but the output could easily be
increased three times.

In all four crosscuts, two drifts and two
upraises are being driven now. In the
east crosscut forty feet from the Oddie
line the ground sampled $147.60 this
week. The general average of the face
of the upraise from the 200-foot level
assayed SIC. In the Oddie lease the
ore is stopped up to within a few feet
of the Mackenzie line and a solid breast
of ore is presented Considerable water
has been encountered in the Mackenzie
lease and a big Cameron sinking pump
is on the way to the ground.

aoLDFIELD TREASURE

Murphy and Marthaler in their lease
on the Goldfield Treasure ground are
progressing nicely Since taking over
the ground they have timbered the shaft
to within working distance of the bot
tom with square sets and are working
good depth with each day. The shaft
is now down so feet and into the sui
phides Some very good quartz is pres
ent and small values attend constantly.
During the life of previous lease
crosscuts were run north and west from
the 60-foot mark The west cut ran in
200 feet and struck a hopelessly big and
barren quartzite dyke. The north work.
ing in rs feet gives appearance of being
on the verge of revealing something
worth while. This working is in a
tough putty like kind of tale bearing
little kidneys of good appearing quality.

The local stock market during the last
week has strengthened so materially,
sales have been so large and the in
crease in prices over those which pre-
vailed seven days ago is so great as to
deserve considerable attention. In some
cases bids have advanced to a point
more than so per cent higher than was
offered last week. All through the list
there has been an increase in price of
from 2 to 10 points and the stocks are
still going up. st. Ives which on
August I'd was bid 40 cents on August
9th was refused on a bid of 62R cents
Mohawk quoted on August I'd at $1.93
was bid $3.50 at the night call on
August 9TH Atlanta at the earlier date
selling at II on August 9th was bid 25.
Not only have the prices increased but
the volume of business has become so
great that it has been found necessary
for the local exchange to convene each
night at 1880 O'Clock. This night call is
very popular and the entire active mem
bership is invariably on hand with Is
buying orders for every selling COM
mission The News believing that at
this time the opinions of some of the
Goldfeld traders might be of interest
to the outside public has secured the fol-
lowing interviews:
L. NJ Sullivan of the Sullivan Trust
company, when asked to account for
the present bull tendency of the market
said: "Tt is very easy to ascribe a
reason for the present action. In fact
it would be much more difficult to find
a theory which would fit the conditions
were they reversed. During the days
Immediately preceding the Frisco dis
aster the market was strongly bouyant
and while a temporary depression was
looked for in midsummer, that time was
far in advance and the top of the market
had not been reached. When the catas-
trophe came all the world stopped,

new electric hoist which will be in place
shortly. This company will go to the
200-foot mark before crosscutting.
DIR. w. X. Robinson and Geo. vickers
have taken a lease on Block No. of
the c. o. d. and will sink working
shaft $50 feet. The work will be done
by contract and bids are now being re-
ceived. In the interests of the lease Mr..
Vickers recently left town for Balti-
more where the lessees have strong
backing. The burst Degan lease is now
nearing the 150-foot mark and fine
quartz is present which carries encour-
aging values.
In the Detch and Brewer lease on the
Golden Eagle claim drifting is going on
from the 210-foot level north and west.
1t is expected that they will shortly cut
several lodges.
In the company's shaft a depth of zoo
feet has been attained and prosecuting
begun.

rRANCEs-MoHAwK

In the Mohawk lease of the Frances
Mohawk Mining and Leasing company
sinking is being rushed with all speed.
1t is doubtful If another so efficient crew
can be found anywhere in camp and
with the splendid equipment on hand
great work is being done. Two machine
drills are in use, of the Water Leyner
type, one doing good service in the
shaft, the second is in use in the cross
cuts and drifts. The shaft is now down
245 feet and two upraises are being pro-
jected from the 220-foot level. A cross
cut at this depth is also under way. On
Wednesday an assay from the face OF
the west crosscut carried values of
s262. AS soon as connections are made
another hoist is to be installed. At
present about SO tons of rock is hoisted
daily and the shipments for the week
will probably aggregate ten carloads.
The ore bins are now completed and

caused a panic among the holders of
margins. The result was that thou
sands of high priced stocks which were
purchased on contract previous to the
shake was thrown back on the hands
of the brokers who to preserve their
own credit were forced to sell at any
price In consequence every stock in
the list went far below its real worth.
Then came the threatened labor troubles
in Tonopah preventing the reaction
which was due owing to the increased
production of the mines. When the
labor troubles were laid the market
began to assume a healthy tone again.
There may be some slight falling away
during the next two months but any
thing like a depression is impossible so
long as the present rate of production
continues" Mr.. Robinson says further:
'I know for a fact that during the past
so days the ores of Goldfield and Tono-
pah carrying values of $50 or over have
given aggregated returns of $1,O00,OOO
Although the Tonopah tonnage Is the
greater the returns are about evenly
divided owing to the higher values of
the Goldfeld rock. This does not in
clude the milling ore which is being ex-
tracted which if taken into consideration
would bring the output of the two
camps on a par with Cripple Creek. 1
fully believe that the production of Ne
vada during the next two years will
surpass that of California and that
within the next three years it will be
the greatest mineral state in the union.
A year from now the shares in Gold
fields best mines will be selling at
prices of $4 or $5 at least"

there is a great deal of professional
buying as we'll Sandwiched in with
