A short time ago there was a prospect

known from New York and Boston to
Los Angeles and San Francisco, would
head a syndicate in the purchase Of the
famous Alvarado silver mines of Parral.

period of time allowed to close the deal
and turn over the vast sum or money
that would be required, was TOO snort 10
even permit of a cursory examination OF
the mines and the undertaking was aban-
doned.
These mines are owned by a Mexican
peOn. Pedro AIvaradO, who has always
turned down even exorbitant offers for
his mines His eccentriciueS and eXtraYa-
giant methods of operation, coupled with
an utter lack of the appreciation of the
value of money, which caused worldwide
comment. has evidently been his final IN
doing for his mine was finally, short
time ago. placed in the hands of Ger

Now comes the story from Boston that
matters have been fixed up so that the
owner of the mine which is credited with
having produced about 5000, 600 In silver,
will not be compelled to sell the property
but in order 10 meet his pressing needs
and clean up heavy debts, he VIII lease

calling for the immediate payment of
$4,000, and to provide 100000 for the
erection of a mill to treat the lower grade

cations are stronger each day that big
interests are picking up stocks, and we
expect to see sentiment change for the
better before long. J. r. Williston of
New York bought 1900 Amalgamated to-
day. The local market was dull and
seemed to be Intentionally depressed.
North Butte and Copper Range are
strong whenever Amalgamated is weak,
showing good buying. Royale has stood

changes, but don't get short at these
prices.

far astray. The Deseret News cannot
make reply for all the newspapers OF
