IMPERIAL, Dec. 13.-Great indigna-
ton is expressed here at a dispatch
from San Bernardino saying there is a
general exodus from the Imperial val
ley and stating that the Southern Pa
cific is refusing to accept freight for
this point.
There is not the slightest foundation
for either statement. There is no ex-
odus of any dimensions and freight is
coming as always.
Following the first depressing effect
of the break in the river comes the
actual work of closing the gap Land

MEET HILL LINE REDUCTIONS
ST. Paul Roads Action Stirs Western
Traffic World
RY Associated Press.

BY ASSOCIdlGu I-IN5S.
CHICAGO, Dec. 1S.-The Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul road has decided
to meet the reductions which the Hill
lines have made in rates from the Twin
Cities and Duluth into certain portions
of the northwest.
In doing so the st. Paul will reduce
the rates on all classes of freight tully
10 per cent from Chicago to the terri
tory about Sioux Falls, Sioux City and
other portions of the northwest, es-
pecially in the Dakotas.
The action of the st. Paul is likely
to cause a lively row in the western
traffic world, as some of the roads
notably the Burlington and the North
western, being not in favor of the rate
reduction.

DEVELOPMENTS IN THE
 P|TTSBURG-JER0ME
Spendid Showing Being Made in Shaft Attracting
 Attention.

The splendid showing in the deep shaft on the Pittsburg-jerome property has again attracted the attention of the mining world of Jerome. says the Jerome News. As depth is attained with this shaft the showing grows more favorable. At the present time they are taking out a formation of iron. quartz and slate, all of which carries more or less copper sulphides, and at the present depth. over 300 feet, the showing Is considered the best yet encountered. Development continues to make this property look more and more like big proposition. Reports from the eastern office of the Verde Grande Copper company say that this company is having no trou- ble in disposing of its treasury stock. It Is now the intention to start de- yelopment work on the group within the next few weeks. At the Harry housen they have been troubled with cave-in in the diamond drill hole during the past week. hence very It. tie headway has been made. Develop ment on the other prospects along the Jerome copper belt has been moving along without interruption. and gen erally with good results. This is es- pecially so on the North Verde com pany's property, where Superintend- ent Movies continues to make record time in sinking the deep shaft, with
 results thab are pleasing to those who are interested.

BLACK MOUNTAIN.

We are autboritatively informed that the ore body has developed dou- hle the width estimated by Philip \. Moore the consulting engineer. upon the strength of whose report the prop erty was purchased. The original es- innate gave the company very large tonnage. but this new development means that the reserves of ore from the surface to depth Of 800 feet. where the water level occurs, are prac- tically inexhaustible.
 Recovery from stamps in September was S27.000 and from the cyanide plant s26,000. total of s53,0o0. h.s is at the rate Of nearly Sl.60 per share for the 400,000 shares, and it is stated that the October income will exceed this amount.
 It would be a comparatively simple mater at any time to double the out put, as much of the plant is already euipped to render twice the present service. It is hardly more than a matter of building additional heads to the mill.

Especial Wire to Duey & OverloCk.)
 NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-General dis appointment prevailed at the course of today's market in view of the favor able election results. An upward swing was looked for by many. and an opportunity to sell for both long and short account. but such did not ma terialize. The election is over, and now the main issue is money. Proba- bly, much of today's selling was for professional account in anticipation of higher Bank of England rate tomor- low ana a general imDrovemeN in monetary affairs abroad is not improb- able in the future, and good gradual nursing of tEe situation here will find us in better shape with the return of the Western cash in a few weeks. Money remains the sole factor in the present stock market. and over-indul- gence by the public will result in such declines as we have witnessed today. Fer the time being we advise pur- chases of stocks on sharp declines and profit-takiag on bulges.

 The news that there was a call of $500 per share on the Warren Realty & Dev. Co. was somewhat unexpected, although 1t had to come, and might as well have it over with. Warren was offered at the close at $11.S7, and with few bids in the market.
