SHANNON COPPER CO.
 ID BUILD RAILROAD
All Doubt As to Plans of That Company to Disappear
 With Filing Articles.

AZ doubt as to the construction Of railroad by the Shannon Copper company from their smelling plant at Clifton to their mines al Metcalf will be removed within a few days by fil- ing their articles of incorporation with the auditor of the territory. says the Clifton Copper Era.
 The company will be incorporated for sI ,0G0. .000 which will give them ample capital for equipment and also for the construction Of brancnes from the main line to the producing mines of the district, which will have a mag icaI effect upon the mining interests in general
 The building Of tnls signilne road will afford ample facilities for trans porting the ores of the district at all seasons of the year, and will material iy increase the output of several of the older mines, and will undoubted- ly be the means of opening up many new ones
 Tn this connection 1t Is also proba- ble that it will be the means of afford ing transportation for Clifton people from the valley to the hills surround ing the Shannon smelter, where 1t is more than probable a new town will be laid out In the near future. When Mir. Amster, president of the Shan non company, was here in December last, he announced to a representative of the era that the company would offer an available townsite at no dis tant period in the future.

MARKET Is STILL AT 4 STAADSTILL
Locals Are Drug With Little Trading in Denn and
 Shattuck,

The market continues to be a dead one with no traders locally or in the east, apparently everything is at a standstill. Calumet < Arizona holds will at si91.00. with light trading at these figures. Superior & Pittsburg was traded in at s26.50 with consid. erabie offered at that figure. North Butte and Butte Coalition showed d.s- ciines for the day. Shattuck and Denn are both about the same and quota tions are for very sruall lots buying and selling. Black Mountain shows weakness. sales being made at Ss.vV at the close. American holds strong at $l7.00 with very little offered nothing under s17.50 coming out. Warren was traded in at SIS in small lots. KeweenRw has made a s2.00 call, s1.00 payable on the first of April and the other sl.00 is payable on the fist of October. The assess ment on this stock should not effect 1t in the least. and l am of the opin- ion. that for a good investment as well as a speculation. Greene Con solidAted fell off during the day as well as Greena-CanGnea. I think that Greene-Cananea will go a little lower as the certificates will be forthcom- ing very shortly and will be traded in more actively. There is nothing par ticularly encouraging in the market at the present and do not think good stocks can decline very much more.

DETAILS IF BIG STRIKE AT OLD
 DOMINION
Mistaken Idea in East That New Ore Body Is Contlnua- lion of West Ore Body-To Enlarge Shelter Capacity.

Old Dominion.s i4th level sulphide strike has more than justified expec. ta1ion. crosscuttlng was continued aHtil Wednesday night. when tfe work was temporarily suspended in order that the crosseut through the vein might be timbered and prepara. tions made for opening up stope. The crosscut had penetrated forty feet of glance ore and the breasl showed no change. being in the same high grade ore. Attention was also given to the ventilation of the cross cut. which is now connected by winzes with the 12th fevel.
 It is expected that timbering will bs finished by Monday or Tuesday. when driving the crosseut will be re- sumed and carried on through the ore till it reaches the hanging wall. Spec ulatIon as to the width of the ore body at that point Is futile. The width of ore at present. forty feet has already exceeded expectation. and whether 1t will continus ten or twen- ty feet. or further. is problematicai.
 One thing is certain. howeyer-the Old Dominion suiphlde vein on the I4th level is the largest high grade ore body yet opened in any copper mine in the southwest We might possibly except the Old Dominion west ore body. which has t7en par tiaiiy opened on the Sth. sth and 10th ievels-sG sufficiently to indicate its great size and high quality.
 There is a mistaken Idea in Boston that the 14th level sulphide veins are a continuation at greater depth of ths west ore body. as is assumed by Geo. L. Walker of the Boston Commercial. Tns Is erroneoug The two greaI leads are entirely separate and dis tinct, which makes the latest strike Of all the more importance. Two such bodies as these establishes the Old Dominion as one of the greatest copper mines in the southwest.
 The sulnhide ore body on the I4Jn level where opened by No. 2 cross cut is almost directly beneath the old lnterloper shaft. destroyed by fire a year ago Had a former manage- ment sunk that shaft 200 feet further from the 18th Fayel-it would have penetrated the sulphide ore body. and the history of the Old Dominion com. pany in all probability would hay. been very different.
 The physical condition of the mine was never so good as it is at present There has been steady improvement for months and tha increase in the ore measures has been very gratifying The amount of ore being hoisted daily is now larger tkan at any previous tine and the grade of the ore is good The output from the Continental and original Old Dominion claims is also increasing and the United Globe prop critics are supplying a considerabl: tonnage. Some idea of the present output of the mines may be gained from the statement that the stock piIs at the smelter nov contains about 10000 tons of ore.
 Apparently the greatest need of tht Old Dominion at present is enlarge, smelter capacity and this is to by partially supplied by fifth furnace which the management is now "r9

 The market today isy weak and prices are low. asthreatened courln- uanca of labor difficulties causes capital everywhere to withdraw from the market. The investor desires to see the outcome before he makes his investment. Many are seking to real ize on their stocks so as to be prs- pared for any emergency. and as a result it is to be expected that prices should decline, still there seems to be merit in some of our local stocks that keep them up in spite of the depression and there ar emany who have faith that all will come out right and take advantages of the low prices prevailing to make their invest ment Wolverine & Arizona rather strengthened in the east. where 1t was offered yesterday at s3.25.

Everybody sems to be awaiting the issres with bated breath. while none seem to be aoIe to figure out what may be req sonable to expect. The oppor- tunity to buy some of the leading issues at low figures is now and the fellow who can invest in them regardless of what occurs will in the end make big money. besides hay ing a very excellent chance. in our opinion. to do so very shortly. There is no particular stock commanding unusual at tention and locally the orders are mostly to sell. Only slight changes in prices since yester- days close.

A New Electric Plant.

Carl D. Cushing has acquired control OF
the water power at Gaysville and intends
to install plant for the developing Of
electricity to sell. Included in his pur-
chase are the property of the j. E. Stafford
Lumber company, that of the Bethel
Electric Light and Power company at
Gaysville and the rights of the heirs of
the late Nelson GAY in the water power.
The combination of all these rights in
one power affords one OF the best water
powers in this vicinity. There is head
Of about twenty-five feet with the total
flow of White river at Gaysville. 1t is
estimated that with its present develop
ment the plant will yield about 500 horse
power. Mr. Cushing has had engineers
examine the property and will make some
changes. Included in his purchase is the
electric lighting system of J. E. Stafford,
furnishing lights for the village of Gays
vile.
Negotiations are on foot for the sale by
Mr.. Cushing to the Woodbury. Granite
company of power to operate both their
old shed at Bethel and the new one to be
built as well as the plant at the quarry.
Mr.. Cushing will install an auxiliary
steam plant to use in time of extra low
water and in case of breakdowns, etc.
The power taken by the Woodbury. COM
pany will not exhaust the supply that the
new plant will give, and it would seem
that this would make good opening for
any new industry to settle in Bethel, as
this electric power can be furnished at a
much lower rate than steam power can
be produced.

Shoe Shop BUILDING Sold.

c. w. Matson of Philadelphia was in
town Tuesday and closed a contract with
DR.. r. M. Chase, trustee for the owners
of the Bethel shoe shop building, for IT,
purchase of that property. Final papers
are to be drawn and possession Civ,
about Sept. 1st In company with h S
brother, Robert Matson, also of Philadel-
phia, Mr.. Matson intends to operate
first-class machine shop Both men are
first-class, practical machinists and there
certainly seems to be good opening for
an industry of this nature in this vicin-
ity. There is nothing in the line this
side of the Lane shops at Montpelier,
and there is large amount of work OF
this kind called for by the Rochester rail-
road and by the two local granite COM
panies. This building was erected in
1892 by the Bethel Shoe company, COM
pany organized by local capital, with a
paid-up capital of S21, 900 at first, after
wards increased to $4,000.
The company did large business,
with $50 employees at one time and an
output of twenty cases of shoes per day.
The depression in the shoe business thet
occurred about 1896 brought hard luck to
the Bethel company and it went into
bankruptcy in 1898, since which time the
building has been occupied part of the
time for tannery purposes and for the
manufacture of bobbins, but has been va
cant most of the time.
Bethel people will welcome the new in
dustry to Bethel for more reasons than
one, as it has been quite trying sight to
see this great building vacant. 1t has
four floors and is 80 feet by $50.
