POLLOCK ON THE EAST.
Tells of Country's Prosperity and
Market Conditions.

Fresh from the sweltering open
cuts" through miles of towering build
ings in New York, fresh from the
haunts Of the money kings and the
worlds greatest army of industrial and
mining stock manipulators, James A.
Pollock reached home yesterday. Dur
ing his stay at the family homestead
in Missouri with his children, he had q
delightful time; during his stay I'm New
York he had a struggle TO stay long
enough to conclude the business that
took him there without giving way to
the heat.
Mr.. Pollock returns with the state
ment that the tremendous Industrial
activity of the country is simply be-
wildering. The copper share market
is comparatively dull. he says. but the
small offerings Of stock and the unprc-
cedented prosperity of the country
makes il seem certain that one of these
days the lid will be ripped off and there
will be such a bull movement as the
world never saw. The condition of the
copper metal market. he says, could
hardly be better than il is today. All
producers are sold well ahead into the
coming year, while the demand for spot
copper creates a constant scramble
among those who need it, Manufac-
turers of finished products in iron, steel
and copper are utterly unable to handle
the business that is offered them, and
so it goes IN all lines of industry.
With everything running at such high
pressure. Mr. Pollock expects to see
flurries in the money market every
once in while. though banking inter-
ests are confident OF their ability to
cope successfully with the situations
as they may arise, Mr.. Pollock is glad
to be back declaring that no section

80 FEET OF $50 ORE CUT

80 FEET OF $50 ORE CUT

a great strike was made Wednesday
in the Portland, which lies south and
east Of the town about half q mile in
region in which no strike has ever
previously been made, says the Gold
field News. For months and months
the big hoist on the side of the hill
has patiently lifted the waste from the
deep workings and such values as nave
been had were small and not particu-
larly encouraging. As the dump has
grown faith i'm the property among the
outside onlookers has steadily dwindlcd
until not many would care TO invest in
that section. Now suddenly at depth
of 426 feet the lessees, Donald b. Gillies
John McKane and associates. have
come upon an immense ledge thirty
feet across which returns average
values of $50 the ton.
John f. Mitchell. who is connected
with the Portland company and who is
authority for this story states that as
says as high as $500 have been lad
from the ore. The rock is a Sulphide
quartz exactly the same composition
as the Mohawk ores. The Portland is
over mile and half southeast of the
Mohawk and perhaps three-quarters of
mile distant from the Florence. That
this Portland ledge is the continual zion
of the Mohawk vein system there is
every reason to believe and the picking
it up at a point SO distant is perhaps
the most important single strike that
has ever been made i'm GOldfield The
Portland shaft is the deepest an the
district and the presence of ore estab-
fishes beyond dispute the certainly that
when depth is attained on the various
properties of the camp the surface
showings will be discounted and the
values shown to be permanent.
The Portland stock was listed on Fri
day and was strongly i'm demand. The
company is very strong with thousands
Of dollars and 100000 shares in the
treasury. Since the strike was made
claims in the near vicinity have ad-
vanced in price one hundred per cent
