Mines and Mining Stocks

has been doing in the mines since he
went away, and particularly at the South
columbus, where the big ore body was
tapped several lays ago.
Asked If the talked-of consultations of
the Columbus Consolidated and Columbus
Extension, and of the South Columbus
ana columbus Wedge, had been crystal
NED into reality during his absence, Mr..
Jacobson said the subject had been con-
sldered in an informal sort of way, but
tndt II was not yet time to take the
matter up formally. The Columbus Con-
solldated already holds an option on
the Columbus Extension and. if the deal
is finally consummated. IL will be in the
nature Of the direct purchase of the>Ex-
tension ground by the Columbus Con-
solidated
Developments in the South Columbus
are now of such a nature that the COM
pany would be unwilling to talk bust
ness to the Wedge company until more
about the resources of the mine are
known. What is true of the South CO.
lumbus is also true of the Columbus
at the 100-foot level. SO 1t is hardly
likely that anything definite on either
proposition will develop for some little
time to come.
Mr.. Jacobson says that the drones in
New YOrks hive of industry are in a
bad way. M~illionaires of a few months
age. at least that class of them who
never earned an honest dollar . in their
are now down and out, and, in
his judgment, they will stay down.
Things are going to be different; the
stock gamblers will have to go to work

HOW BINGHAM CON.
AFFAIRS LOOK TODAY

The orders issued from Boston to close
down the smelter of the Bingham Con-
soildated company removes that company
as a factor in the Utah smelling field
for there is little chance that this smell,
Ter VIII ever again go into commission.
SAYS Fridays Boston News Bureau.
These orders are part of a plan evolved
by F. Augustus Heinze for the consoli-
dation of many properties in Utah and
the building of an immense smelling pro-
position. Mr.. HeinZe does not own CON
troll of the Bingham company, his owner
ship consisting of but 1O. 900 shares. for
which he paid $50 per share or a total in
vestment on his part of 100000. This in
vestment is now selling in the market
for 5000 The Bingham Consolidated
Mining q Smelling company he's proved
a failure both as a mining and smelling
proposition.
The company has outstanding 10000
shares of stock. par value $50, which sold
at that price in 1902 and are now selling
in the market for S.. It also has si,00N093
of bonds and floating debt of rising $780,
900. Smelling operations have been con-
Quoted at a loss for some time.
Mr.. Heinze plans the building of a 1000
ton smelter near Garfield. Utah. The site
has been purchased and contracts made
for the initial construction work. Recent
financial difficulties. through which Mr..
Heinze has been passing. will not prevent
the completion of this smelter. which al
ready has long term contracts for the
treatment of ores to the limit of its ca
pacity. The Bingham company has made
a contract with the Heinze smelter,
whereby 1t will be able to have its ores
smelted for considerably less than it can
do ii. While this new smelter is building,
the Bingham ompany will make no pre-
tense OF mining operations except where
1t may be able to sell some of its ores
to other custom plants. We understand
that the directors have also given an
option to the Heinze company upon the
Bingham smelling plant, which will be
dismantled and parts used in the con-
struction of the new plant.
The Bingham company has also sold its
Mascot tunnel to the Heinze interests for
Sl56.O0 and an annual income of SIS, 000,
with an agreement to ave its ores trans
ported at q cost less than IL could trans
port them. This Mascot tunnel will be
extended 5000 feet to the Ohio property
II also to the Commercial mines owned
by the Bingham Consolidated, and at the
latter property it will cut the Commercial
ore body 800 feet below the present lowest
workings.
The future of the Bingham Consolidated
company lies largely in the Commercial
and Dalton and Lark properties. bOth of
which are low-grade propositions. Tt,
however. also controls the Eagle & Blue
Bell property in Tintic. which has re-
Gently opened a substantial ore body at a
depth of 900 feet.

Business Recession Is Keeping
Manufacturers With Big Or
derS Out of the Market.

The Boston News Bureau of yester-
day is quoted on the copper metal out
look as follows:
The price of copper has receded 1
cent per pound from the recent recov-
cry to 10 cents, and electfolytic can
now be obtained in New York at Ia
cents per pound. The market at the
moment is weak. There are several
factors contributing to this condition.
In the first place, the 100, 900, 900 pounds
taken over by a foreign syndicate a
week or more ago frcm the United
metals Selling company was not a sale
10 consumers, and this copper has not.
therefore. been removed from the So
called visible supply. 1t has been sim
ply transferred from the hands of one
seller to another on the other side of
the water. We have heard Thai this
IOO, 700, 900 pounds was not, strictly
speaking, a sale. but that foreigners
virtually loaned the Metals Selling
company between $4,000, 900 and s12,-
Uuo'VOO' with the privilege of selling the
copper pledged for the loan at their
discretion. 1t is possible that the ad-
vance in London bank rate NAV have
an indirect bearing on the weakness in
copper in connection with the finances
OF! this foreign syndicate.
1T is h general opinion hat about
Zo,O0O, QUO was bought by SPECTATORS at
the time the 100,0 900, 0O0-pound ~transac-
ton was being negotiated in order to
cover Short contracts in copper war
rants. In addition to the above. it is
further estimated that 90, 000, 600 pounds
was bought by consumers at home and
abroad, who became suddenly alarmed
that with n shortened production of
the metal they should suddenly find
themselves unable to cover their re-
quirements.
There is nothing to indicate that the
consumers in this country have stocked
up beyond their immediate necessities.
We know that some of the largest
manufacturers nave distrusted the Ie-
gItimacy of the recent van and
have been in the market for only such
supplies as were actually demanded to
meet the contracts on their books. The
fact that there is being produced on
Inc American continent today less
tina 90 per cent of the normal annual
output of 1,2O0, 000, 900 pounds, tends to
the copper buyers on the anxious
seat. as 1t is known that the manufac-
turers are scrimping along with the
smallest stocks of copper i'm their his
tory, but against these factors there
are steadily increasing evidences of a
recession of business in many lines of
industry"

BAR OF GOLD FROM
M0NTGOMERY-SHOSH0N

Superintendent Bryce Turner Of int
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. handed John ;
Cook & Co.'S bank a gold brick the
other day-nOt the variety once used to
eparate the innocent and u~nsuspecting
from their coin. but the real article yield
ed from the ores treated at the COM
pany's mill. 1t is the first refined gold
from the new plant, and is worth 81
900, says the Bullfrog Miner.
In addition to this the compa has
shipped two cars of concentrates to the
Salt Lake smelters, and is holding up
its average of thirty tons of high grade
shipping ore a day. The milling ore is
concentrated twenty tons in one, and the
material being treated will average in
the vicinity of SIS to the ton. An idea
of the value of the concentrates may be
had from this fact.
The new mill, the management says,
is going well and giving satisfaction.
Some few changes are being made from
time to time and the plant is being
gradually worked up to its full capacity.
The general verdict among mill men is
that the mill is a success. but it takes
time to get all the parts properly ad-
justed. 1t will be treating 300 tons of
ore in a very short time.
The company is steadily increasing its
force, and rapidly opening up its bodies.
The shaft has reached a depth of $50
feet. At the 600 q pumping station will
be put in and further lateral work I'M
dertaken.

COLE STRIKE REPORTED
NEAR M'CAM IDA.

Z. A. Haines. editor Of the McCammOn
Banner, was in Pocatello recently looking
after affairs of business. He says the
people of his town are in a fever Of ex-
element over a recent strike of high
grade gold ore on Bell Marsh. four and
a half miles northwest of McCammOn.
In an interview he said.
1.-The discovery has been kept a secret
for the past few months and those who
have been on the inside have been samp-
ling and prospecting their claims II
have found. not only good indications,
but a considerable quantity of free gold,
occurring, not only in places, but in
lodges.
Gold can be AIMED from the hang
ing wall of a Shale dixie, extending from
near the Bell Marsh south for three
miles. In places over this dixie the
wash will run about an ounce in free
gold. The gold is very fine, but any
one familiar with a gold pan can find
IT. The country farther west shows
other shale dikes: two at least, show
free gold.
"Other claims have been staked by To-
cal people in that vicinity and prepara-
tons are being made for active develop
ment work on them during this winter.
Just whether this excitement over this
find will prove a boom for his section
is only a mere conjecture, but the de-
velopment on the prospects will soon tell
the tale"

FRIENDS SILLY BANTER CAUSES
DEATH OF JOHN MILLER AT
GRINNELL.

Grf1nell, Ia, May 21.-Enraged by
the thoughtless banter of his COM
panions, Jonn Miller, young farmer
living two miles northeast of this
town, committed suicide by hanging.
Miller attended tLe Congregational
church and after the service some Of
mis- companions twitted him about his
relations with Miss Libby Adkins,
whose father, it is said, was hostile
to his suit and made it uncomfortable
for him at the Adkins home. Miller
had no answer for them, but seemed
moody when ne left them to go to the
home Of H. H. Fleener, his foster
father.
The fact that he did not enter the
house was not noticed till this morn
ing, wnen his body was found hanging
from a rafter inthe carriage shed. He
had taken the team home and put
them out. Then using part Of tine
harness as moose he tied it to a
rafter and jumped OF. breaking his
neck instantly.

THE HOSPITAL SEWER
City and Property Owners Do Not
Agree On Plan.

Yesterday morning the city fathers
took a ride to the Kemble Floral com
panys grounds to Investigate the con-
ditions in regard to building the sew.
er extension through their grounds to
the new city hospital site and drew up
a contract which they desired Mr..
Kemble to siga and present at their
meeting last night. but when the mat
ter was brought up for consideration
1t was found that Mr.. Kemble and his
wife had drawn up another contract
asking that the sewer be built in ac-
coriance with their desires and under
their supervision. AS this could not
be satisfactory to the city engineer,
the sewer committee was instructed
to arrange for contract which could
be mutually agreed upon and present
it at the called meeting next Monday
night.
Another Sewer Problem.
The search light was turned on the
open sewer which runs back of the

Island tracks. Into this ditch 10 emp

buildings n addition to the load from
a private sewer which was built sew.
eral years ago, extending northeast
from the depot, with from six to ten
|tappages. All this has caused an ac-
emulation of filthy refuse which
emits offensive odors. 1t is a serious
problem to know how to abate this
nuisance, as the only connection
which could be made at this place
with the city sewer would necessitate
an extension o. the Ninth avenue
sewer about 1000 feet and for the
greater part of the distance under pri-
vate ground.
At the suggestion of City Solicitor
Orvis an order was issued notifying
those who use the sewer that they
must stop using the ravine as dump
ing ground for refuse, within seven
days, or they will be enjoined by the
city. -.

AFTER FIFTY YEARS.
Mr.. Pugh Comes Back To Visit His
Former Home.

A very remarkable family reunion
is being held this week at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. w. ]. Thomas, on
Sixth avenue west, where Mrs. 1'hom'
as is entertaining her brother, George
Pugh, of Waterville, Kansas. Mr..
Pugh is 70 years old, and has not been
in Oskaloosa for nearly fifty years.
During that long period he mas seen
none of his family excepting Mrs.
Thomas, who visited him in Kansas
eighteen years ago.
Mr.. Pugn is somewhat feeble, and
was quite overcome by his long trip.
His brothers, Benjamin, who lives out
on the Des Moines river, and William
whose home is near Beacon, have
been in to see him and welcome back
the brother whom they have not seer
in half a century. There are also two
sisters, Mrs. Ferral of Oskaloosa and
Mrs. Girard, who lives south Of town
to welcome him. A third sister, Mrs
Inman, left Tuesday for Oklahoma and
will miss seeing her brother.
Mr.. Pugh's visit was a great sur
prise to Mrs. Thomas, as well as u
other members of the family. Thinl
