SHIPPING FROM FAIRvIEW
Mines of District Send Good Ore Out
by Carloads

May was the best month in the his
tory of the Fairview district for ship
ments of ore. The Goldfeld Chronicle
says that UP to the first day of June
the high grade loaded on cars amount
ed to 20 carloads that averaged $3.50 a
ton. This means, says the same paper,
that the district is producing metals
at the rate of s1,000.00o a year. Opera
tions in the district are described as
follows:
The first shipment of ore from the Nevada
Fairview will consist of two cars Of ore running
about 500 per ton. Ii is now about ready for
the wagons. Sacking will continue.
Tunnel 3, Nevada Hills, has cut a good breast
of that breaks down into the sack at $500
per ton In a drift from the winze in tunnel
there is five feet of solid ore that ships at
s400 per ton This winze is 65 feet deep and
was dropped in the vein of for the entire
depth.
The hoisting engine for the Golden Boulder
property will be put in commission at once. The
roadway leading up to the works was finished
recently. and development is in evidence at
every point this property. Sinking from the
tunnel level is the program, and the vein of high
grade viii be explored. esss
In a crosscut at the 100 foot <lesel of their
new shafts the Nevada Hills leasing company
has just encountered ore that by IFS value and
the general formation indicate the nearby
presence of the big ore shoot ON which tunnels
and of the main property are drifting. At
present the work is confined to drifting because
the hoist has not arrived, and the big shaft
cannot be dropped farther without power.

Mining Stock Market Shows Better
Trend and Prices Are Advanced
Trading in Goldfield Shares Is Marked by a
Rally Indicative of Passing of Bedrock

An upward turn I'm prices marked
the mining stock market yesterday.
The shares that have been pounded
down nlonotonously for some days rail-
lied and the quotations showed gains.
simultaneously with this move the
stock board adage that there is money
to buy stocks on the rise If none to
pay for them on the fall found some
illustration.
Buyers were taken with the idea that
a change had come and that bed rock
had been reached.
whether this is true or not cannot
be forcasted very well. The shares
may soar today or drop again, as the
fluctuations would seem to be very
slightly affected by the reports con-
cerning ore strikes in any particular
mine or set of mines. But the spirit
of the market was distinctly better
than for some DAYS previous, and this
was sufficient 10 inspire the bulls with
hope.
Goldfeld consolidated mines opened
at $3.50, sold up as high as s4.6711 and
closed at s4.e2h, or shade better
than the opening. Combination Frac-
tion opened at s155 and sold up to
$1.7O. Jumbo Extension advanced from
sL12H to $1.20 Pittsburg Silver Peak
wound up at $1.35, or 2na points better
than at the opening. Jim Butler was
not knocked down materially. The
opening and closing were both at II
cents. Some shares. in the interim,
sold az 76 cents
Red Top Extension put on 2 points
TO the good. Daisy, Red Hills, Dia-
mondheld Triangle and Atlanta netted
small gains. Combination Fraction
sold upward from s1.55 TO s1.60. There
was no great rush toward the goal of
higher prices. but the stir was consid-
cred to be hopeful New York prices
for the Gold1eld stocks were stronger
than they had been for several days
preceding.

Maj. Jefferson r. Kean. surgeon, l.

partment of health. is making a short
visit TO Washington. Major Kean was
put in charge of the situation when II
was found that yellow fever was pre-
vailing in Cuba, as he had taken such
an active part in the suppression Of
the disease in the previous occupation
Of the island. BY virtue of his in
telligent and active measures he soon
had the disease under control.
Since January no case Of yellow
fever has been reported in Cuba, and
while a sporadic case may be expected
to develop occasionally. Major Kean
does not expect any spread of the dis
ease. There has not been a single case
among the enlisted force and only one
among the officers OF the American
troops on the island.
