MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Yankee Consolidated Weakens in
Face Of Three-Cent Dividend.

In a market that was unusually strong
and lively the talent jumped onto Yankee
Consolidated and sold il any old way
and in any amount down to 43 cents a
share. A few days ago the stock was
crOwding so cents. 1t is an open secret
that there is dissatisfaction in the ranks
of the official household and that may
have something to do with the raid that
has been made on the stock. Park City
stocks were all in good favor and strong
prices prevailed Ontario was unobtain-
able under szI15 and few sales were
made. DAILY moved up TO $3.50 and hold
ers demanded several cents more at the
close of business. Silver King sold at
81 to s25 and the impression is that it
will hold around these prices until plans
for the future have been settled. Tintic
stocks were all strong and in good de-
mand while some of the unlisted stocks
commanded considerable attention during
the open board calls.
During the two regular and open board
calls total of 81, 100 shares Of stock with
q selling value of $67. ~. 25 changed
hands. Following is the list of final quo
tatiOns and official record of sales made:

BEARS DRIVEN TO COVER
ON FRISCO EXCHANGE

San Francisco. Jan. 10.-There was
great excitement at the morning session
of the San Francisco stock and exchange
board today, caused by the bull raid on
the Nevada mining stocks. A number of
the brokers who had been selling the
stocks short were caught in the raid and
for more tnan an hour there was frantic
buying in the effort to avoid a squeeze.
Among the stocks which figured in the
advance were Blue Bull, which sold at
81 an advance OF ten points since yester-
day, with the demand much larger than
the supply: Silver Pick advanced is, clos
ing at $1.65; ORC at Sc. an advance of six
points over yesterday and Atlanta, which
sold yesterday at 81, was in great de-
mand and there was a wild scramble for
il this morning at 81. Great Bend was
likewise very strong, selling at $.45, the
price yesterday being Slip.
An interesting feature of the session
was the presence of a number Of women,
who directed their representatives as to
prices and the amount of stock to buy.
Goldfield Consolidated sold at Is cents
above par, and many brokers believe this
will carry Mohawk to go, as the stocks
are linked together in the merger.

Of additional stock under such circum-
stances places an unjust and unreason-

CATTLE KING
In Many Respects Ono Of the Most
Remarkable Men Known in
This Section.
(Ry the Weston pemocratl !.

Il
WESTON. July s1-col. A. w.
iWoodford. who for several weeks has
been attending to business interests
here and greeting old acquaintances,
has gone to Pennsylvania for few
days before returning to the home
OF his adoption In far distant Cali
fornia. His friends In West Viz
ginia, who are legion, regret to have
him leave so soon. but wish him the
highest means of success and most
abundant happiness in his western
home. OF which he speaks in such
glowing terms, and where It is said
his genial disposition has already en-
deared him to a wide circle OF new
made friends.
Col. woodford. in many respects,
is one of the most remarkable men
who ever resided In weaton. Hav-
ing by nature bright, sunshiny dis
position, he is possessed OF that hap
py faculty which has always render
ed him ready mixer" among men,
and he has perhaps a more extern
sive personal acquaintance In West
Virginia than any other one man re-
siding in the State today. His adj
mirers have ever been ready to do
him honor. He was twice elected
sheriff Of Lewis county, and once a
delegate to the legislature. On
more than one occasion ne has been
prominently mentioned for congress,
while few years ago he attained
distinction as the farmers candidate
for governor until he withdrew from
the race. To him b due the credit
Of introducing thoroughbred cattle
into Lewis county, where for years
he held the undisputed title OF
Cattle King" Some years ago he
was one of the extensive exporters
OF cattle to London. In business he
has ever been successful. and 1t will
not be controyerted by those who
know him best that in days past he
handled more ready money in the
course of twelve months than any
two men in the county. He has own
ed hundreds of acres of what is now
the wealthiest real estate In the
county. and during the long years OF
his residence here was ever active,
diligent and earnest in promoting
and unbuilding the public welfare.
His career has indeed been fraught
with activity and usefulness. All
wish for him yet many years OF hap
piness and continued prosperity.
