REDUCES ORE AT SMALL COST.
New Concentration at Toronto Cuts Ex-

M
TORONTO, Oct. l7..-The Canadian
Pulverizing Company has had con-
centrating plant working on the lake
side Of the exhibition grounds reducing
silver ore from the Trethewey mine at
Cobalt. The concentration Is an ingen-
ious contrivance for reducing the ore
lat d small cost. The company claims
iit can establish frst-class plant at
about one.third Che cost Of other con,
centrators.
The company also guarantees to ex-
ti,ct 95 per cent Of the ore values. The
capacity Of the present plant, If operat-
ing five tables, Ii about five tons an
hour, or 100 tons each working-day. The
plant can be run By gas engine. The
value Of concentration consists mainly
in the fact that the ore-bulk can be
reduced from a tho weight to 100
pounds weight before being shipped TO
the mselter thereby reducing to an ex-
traordinary degree freight charges and
delay in refining.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 1.-THE heav-

the year for wheat for May delivery
was the basis Of trade yesterday in the
Merchants Exchange. The sale was
distinguished also BY the fact that it
is the heaviest ever put through by the
exchange. he amount was 10000 bush

price Of "a cents per bushel, delivered
