At the Denn they are still drifting cn the 100 level to make connection with the Saginaw-American property. The work n this drift Is progressing steadily, and the drift itself still in iron ore and manganese.
 A cross-cut was started from this drift on Tuesday to connect with the diamond drill hole. The cross-cut has been driven 25 feet so far, and is showing up well in iron ore anc manganese. and an altered limestone. It Is expected that a large body of ore will be exposed by this drift. as soon as 1t is driven short Gscance fur ther.
 Word was received that the 1000 gallon triple expansion pump would be shipped about the first. of this week. If this program is carried out 1t will probably be in operation by the 7th Of next month, and sinking of the shaft will be resumed. The shaft will be sunk to the 1900 mark. and drifts will be driven at the HOO. 1900 and 1900 levels.

WEEKLY RESUME

were made at $1T.62 and closed at SIT. This stock is becoming favor ite; more so every day as Boston has taken very kindly to it, and the general public realize that this property ought to in time make as good property as the Greene Con. Copper Co. From an article taken from the News Bu- reau, it states that when this property was bought, the Cole-Ryan crowd paid s1 900 for actual ore in sight, and paid s2,500, 900 for the property. This goes to show that it will only be mat ter of very short time when they will receive all the money paid in out of the property within two years time. Nipissing has made some good ad- vances. This property is in the Co halt District capitalized at 100000 shares at s5.00 per share full paid, hay inc an acreage of $40 acres.
 Globe Consolidated has shown no hurry to advance, and apparently there Is a great deal of stock that is being offered as soon as any strength is shown in the market. There may be regret for this some time to come. Cnchise is being sought after at s7.00, with little coming out at. SIPS. Shat tuck has bee ntraded in at $32.50, with best bids at $32.
