The more favorable weather in the West
and the decline in the grain markets did
not help stocks, for the traders were Of
the opinion that there was scattered llqui-
dation, and for this reason were not in
ciincd to recede from their position on the
bear side. They conceded willingly that
the borrowing demand for stocks was
large. but argued that this did not neces-
sarily imply heavy short interest. con-
tending that a good part Of the borrowing
was done by sellers who had the stock to
deliver, but preferred to borrow so as 10

night, and in less than an hour after
had DR.. Richardson on the road to
succor the pioneer woman, who had
been kicked almost to death by a
vicious stage horse. Mrs. Corners
recovered from her injuries and did
not give up her life's work until last
year, when she passed to the other
side for her reward for a life well
spent. She engaged the man who
had been kind to her when she need
ed help at once to care for the sta
ton, and he is still there, doing his
own cooking and living alone, caring
for the transient public travelling to
and fro between Ely and Osceola.
The story as related by Mr.. Wylie
sounds like page from fiction, but it
is as true as gospel" The old
house which sheltered Mrs. Corners
from the storms of life for so many
years stands today as she left 1t, a
rough monument to her memory.
More Discoveries.
Charles Hawkins, Walter Ludlow
and A. Fl. Palver have been in the
hills near Corners station for the
past five weeks and have made sew
eral mining locations near that point
which speak well for the mineral de-
posits in the Shell creek range. Mr..
Hawkins says that surface indica~
lions are all that could be asked in
the development of a gold mine. The
formation is characteristic of this
part of the country. 1t is black spar
lime, with shale and porpllry contact.
He has had assays made from near
the surface that show values of
$16.50 per ton in gold. Mr.. Hawk
ms has not yet discovered anything
but collaborating ore in the district
prospected and seems quite confident
that he will soon develop a valuable
gold mine. The discovery only goes
to show that White Pines grass roots
have not as yet been hardly
scratched The section where Mr..
Hawkins and his associates are now
working is on the eastern slope of
the Shell creek range. Timber for
mining purposes is abundant on the
slope where he is working.

distance of forty miles, for the trans
portation of ores from the mine to
the smelter. The company is also
contemplating putting a pack train
of jacks on to pack the higher grade
of ores from the mine down the
mountain side, where it can be
loaded on wagons and hauled to Ely
for shipment by rail. A. S. Will
Jams, the general manager of the
company, is now in the East to con-
suit with his board of directors
about the several projects in contem
plation.
The Omaha Mining company is de-
veloping several properties in the va
rious districts under the manage
ment of the Wooleys. The Wouleys
have bitten off pretty big chunk of
territory, but whether they will be
able to handle all successfully re-
mains to be seen. If they do, and are
able to fulfill their expectations they
will be bigger than Grant," and
prove themselves very popular in this
section of White Pine county. AS
far as | have gone | have given the
mining industry pretty good over
hauling, and my next letter will treat
more on the agricultural possibilities,
developed and undeveloped, and the
live stock holdings.

from one end of the county to the
other in describing the various prop
critics that may be called Outside.
First: Louis Smith left on the 9th
to float lot of stock in a company
he represents in the New York mar
ket. The company was organized on
Smith creek, twenty miles northeast
of Blackhorse in the same belt, the
st. Maria, that Blackhorse is located
in. How well he may succeed re-
mains to be seen.
The best copper showing yet
made in this district is that of the
Phoenix Blackhorse claim, two miles
east of the camp. Mr.. Hart and Mr..
Kane are on the ground doing deyel-
opment work. The vein is exposed for
a distance of 200 feet and is from
two to six feet in width. A tunnel is
in tifty-four feet and is high grade
ore all the way The Black horse
Phoenix also has three shafts, from
twenty-seven to fifty feet in depth,
showing strong chute of ore in
each shaft from the surface to the
bottom.

situated group of ten claims owned
by j. H. Marriott, on which a good
deal of development work has been
done in the way of shafts and tun-
nels. Mr.. Marriott proposes to take
out ore to be milled during the sum-
mer. Adjoining the Marriott claims
is the property of G. w. Gaby and S.
A. Sabin, which have had consider
able work done on them.
j. II. Marriott has a group of
thirty claims at Tungsten, situated
on the western slope of Mount
Wheeler. whose white head goes into
the clouds for a distance OF $4,000
feet. Mr.. Marriott's first work on
the Tungsten group started at an ele-
walton of 5000 feet. He has owned
the property for years, and has done
"a good deal of development work.

miles south of Osceola, has several
promising locations. Mr.. Lanta is
now running tunnel to tap some
deep workings in an old claim partly
developed in an early day The

About ten men are prospecting in the
district.
In Lexington district there are
twelve men working under the man
agement of E. T. Wooley of Salt
Lake. The development being done
on the group shows Improvement as
depth is attained. Mr. Wooley
seems satisfied with his prospects,
and says that depth will show up a
valuable mine. The property was
owned for number of years by Sim
mons & Fowler, who have simply
done enough work to hold on to the
claims.
Ten miles east of Shoshone and
thirty-two miles south of Osceola is
Mount Washington, whose summit is
10000 feet above sea level. On the
side of this grand old hill the st.
Lawrence company is operating, with
ID. G. Cahoon at the head. of the cor
poration. Ten or twelve men are
just now employed, but the mine
would be working double that num-
Der We're they to be had, and, by the
way, the same condition applies to la
Dor everywhere l have visited, all
along the Snake range, for men are
hard to get, and harder to keep after
getting them, as they generally quit
their jobs after earning a few dollars.
The st. Lawrence is located on the
side of Mount Washington, 10000
feet above the home of the sea gull.
The company is running tunnel
into the side of the mountain for
distance of 800 feet, and have started
a working tunnel on the LEDGE At

runs from forty-three ounces to sew
