Upward Turn for Good Net Gains.
 New York, Dec, 7.-Money on call loaned at 86 per cent. early to-day. Estimates of the weeks currency movement indicated a cash loss by the banks of between eight and nine mil lion dollars, without allowing for the carrying over of the effect of last weeks losses by the average system of computation. As last weeks surplus of the banks stood at less than $2 2,OOO- OO0 and as the stock market has re- flected no important liquidation during the week, the supposition.. that to-mor- rows bank statement would show de- felt did not seem strainer and was generally current in the financial dis trict in the early part of the day Not withstanding this condition, stocks of fered stubborn resistance to pressure for time and then turned upwards to good net gains, while the money rate ran off to 2 per cent, with no appear ance of the urgent demand being en- 1 tirely satisfied
 Explanation of this anomalous course of events was obscure. The persistent firmness of stocks was attributed, at | first to prevailing confidence that further measures of relief for the mon l ey market by the treasury department were imminent No source of actual relief for the money market was known to be in effect. Sterling exchange made a downward plunge in response to the stringent condition of the money mar ket. Foreign advices reported some perturbation in foreign markets over inquiries for gold for New York ac- count said to be making. No trace of any intended engagement of gold abroad for import could be obtained in ] New York.
 There was active discussion of the abuses connected with the excessive rates for money on call at the stock l exchange and of possible measures to remedy them Accusations of manipu- lation for the benefit of lenders were made. The abrupt decline in rates late in the day gave point to some of the charges. It was evident, however, that

Distances are so short in England and railway trains are so frequent that a traveller can reach q large city at any hour, and commercial "bagmen,' as drummers are called, make their headquarters at the large towns where they can find the best accommodations and radiate from them among the smaller places.

Largely Attended Gathering at Ely Hall
to Discuss Town Improvement and

commissioners and recommnd
that an occupation tax and prop
erty tax be levied at the meet
ing of the Board to be held next
Monday. 1t was. suggested that
the occupation tax would be inn
mediately available, but the
special tax levied on property
would not be collectable until
December. O. G. Nelson, c. Il.
Reeves, II. X. Wheeler, Sena-
tor Rockhill and others made IN
teresting talks ON the subject Of
town improvement. Everything
points to a successful campaign
and that Ely will be started off
right and grow to be model city.
After that part of the business
was disposed of Mr.. Pheby arose
and said that many persistent
rumors hrd been floating about
regarding the moving of the
town and said that Fitz- Mac
usually had something interest
ing to say when ever called upon,
and called upon that gentleman
to give the Chamber Il little
talk. fitz-Mac handled the sub
iect barchand and in IL vigorous
manner, and Judging from the
applause he received, he struck
IA popular chord. He opened his
speech with the statement that
sewerage system had been un-
der discussion and that the first
thing to be decided was where a
sewer was needed, whether it
was in Ely, Lane City or George
town, and when it is put in to be
sure that the intake is higher
than tho outlet. His witty in
PRODUCTION made much merri-
mcnt. Fitz-Mac said that Ely
was the coming city Of the state
and that no company or individ-
ual could do anything TO prevent
becoming such. At the conclu-
sion of Fitz- Macs address it was
decided TO pay no attention
whatever to any rumors that
might be put in circulation, but
that all should boost for Ely and
for nothing else. 1t was II

journed, and us everyone who

many successive ore bodies follow
ing the stratiication flames Of the
lime as it is penetrated downward
and this without very special re-
gard to the concealed shape of the
great manzanite body which is only
revealed where the lime has been
eroded-over All east west length OF
say 49, 900 feet by north south
width of averaging 5000 feet.
My present belief is that the
manzanite has the shape of a lenti-
Gle and that it slopes off gradually
under the lime. If this is true the
claims located near line OF contact
as shown on the surface will not
have to sink far through the lime
to reach the manzanite. But if the
manzanite instead of being great
dome-shape, or wllale-backed lacco-
lite proves to have the character of
a dixie with perpendicular walls, it
will not be reached at all by sink
ing in the lime except as it may
have flowed out between the sep
arated strata in forcing its way to
the surface-and it is just as likely
in the one case as the other to have
formed rich ore bodies in the lime.
but there will be great difference
in the cost and the certainty of
finding them.
Core drill work is the thing
needed to settle this part of the
question and if combination
could be made between those who
have located on the lime to have
some drill holes sunk at the ex-
pense of all the matter could be
verv speedily determined.
We have now in sight an ore
body in this great Ely copper de.
posit S., 900 feet long by 5000 feet
wide of an assumed workable thick
ness of about $50 feet that carries
an average of 81 per cent of copper.
Astounding and unparalleled as this
vast volume and value of ore IS,
it may be nearly or quite doubled
by what the core-drill intelligently
employed will reveal and that
means thousands of millions added

erations of active production

New Company Will Operate Group
of Sixteen Claims in Duck
Creek District

There has been formed by
various Salt Lakers a company
to be known as the Ely Gibraltar
Mining company, owning sixteen
claims in the Duck Creek mining
district. This district is sixteen
miles north of Ely, and has al
ready clearly established its
value as producer of lead, gold
and copper.
The names of the officers of
the Ely Gibraltar for the first
year will be M. M. Johnson, the
we'll known Salt Lake insurance
man, president; Charles &.
Street, secretary and treas
urer. The articles of incorpora-
ton, which were to be filed Sat
urday afternoon, provide for u
capitalization of 100000 shares,
of a par value OF 81 each.
There arc on exhibition in this
city specimens of ore from the
ground within this incorporation
that are extremely fine. Assays
show that from one ledge on the
group, which is twenty feet wide
on the surface, values in lead to
IS per cent are obtainable and

traced for an enormous distance,
and from it the management eX-

of its future resources.

values, there is a large ledge
carrying copper, and it was

of this ore brought II per cent
