AMERICAN AND OENh
 ARE THE FEATURES
Nearly All American Stocks Were Drawn From Market
 Because of Demand.
(By Frank J. Graf.)

k6y ETauk J- GIAl.t
 The principle features of today's market was American and Denn Ari- zona. At the opening the demand for American was strong and all stock was withdrawn from the market almost and at the close there were bids out at 24 IA for the stock with none coming ouI. Denn Arizona reached the 100 mark in the eastern market today and from all indications will sell higher as there are as yet no sellers in the market, and think they could do better the coming week. Should the Denn find a good body ore on the HOO. the present price will be cheap. Shattuck at the close Of the market showed some weakness, sales being made at s53.00 and s54.00. Vol verine and Arizona is getting stronger, sales being made at $4.00, the demand for stock is good and many look for this stock to go to the $500 mark by the close of the week. East Butte Is in good demand at s15.5o with little coming out. Butte Arizona continues to be in excellent demand and from all indications this will be a good trad ing stock, sales being made today at $500. understand that the company does not intend to issue stock. this being the case the present floating stock ought to sell for much higher figures. Globe Consolidated failed to keep up her regular pace and at the close was offered freely at s2o-00 with no bidders in sight The market as a whole is h splendid shape and ought to sch for higher prices.

s. P. IS CHARGED
 WITH ILLEGAL LEVY Coast JobberS Accuse Railroad of Charging Tax Without
 Reason for Same.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 29.-Inter- state Commerce Commissioner Lane today resumed the inquiry into the affairs of the railroads involved in Lhe so-called Hartman merger.
 The hearing today was designated as the Pacific Coast Jobbefs against the Southern Pacific % The shippers complained that they were charged five cents wharfage tolls on every ton of freight that catered the city whether 1t came across the bay or over the Coast Line, in which later case there was no lawful wharf age tax to pay.
 Commissioner Lane claims San Francisco as his home.
 He took an active part in the exani- nation of witnesses.
 General Freight Agent G. W. Lucs, of the Southern Pacific. was withess He was asked if the Southern Pacific divided the amount received with con meeting lines or retained wharfage toll and divided remainder. He re- piled that the toll charge of five cents per ton was not divided.
 ! Some statistical testimony and ar rangements for filing briefs in the case completed the session.

RAIL FACILITIES
 FOR GLOBE MINES
6. V, G. 6 N. Will Extend Line to Lower Pinto Creek Sec
 ton at Once.

The first definite news of railway ex- tension to the mines of Globe district not already accessible by rail was brought to Globe by E. A. Mcfarland, chief engineer of the Hartman lines in Arizona and Sonora. says the Silver Belt. Mir Mcfarland stated last cv- ening to a representative of the Silver
 Belt that work will begin at once ca
 the extension to the Mitchell shelter site. a distance of three and one-half
 miles, and as soon as possible tne ex tension win be continued to I point near the Live Oak mine, giving the extension a length of between .,eysn and eight miles. Nr. Mcfarland s business here is to start the cunstruc- ton work and also to look over the , country in the Lower Pinto section with 6 view of further costrIh.-tM "f
 the extension as far as the Keystone
 mine. This will be done very soon If upon examination by the chief ersin- eer a practicable route can be estaa- lished.
 Regarding the work of recDnst 'uc- tion on the main line, Mir. McFa:ld l,l stated that it was progressing as quickly as possible, but owing tn a
 scarcity of laborers, headway on the
 work was not as fast as it might ne. Work will be soon started on ;ha act
 ual construction of the new s.eel bridge over the Giia at San Carlos and Mir. Mcfarland states that he expects
 to see it in use before the summer
 flood season begins.

COLLINS CONTROLS
 SANTA ROSA MINES Property Has Been Worked Be- fore and Much Ore Taken
 Out by Owners.

1t seems that Captain Hoatson Is not interested in the Santa Rosa property with Tom ColliRs. as has been stated. Collins controls the property alone. When seen by Review man yester- day on his arrival from the property he said in substance that he now con troIlsd 3.sso acres of land n the dis trict: that he had bonded two claims for two yea<s. and denounced enough more land te make the above acreage.
 Certain Douglas people formerly had a bond on the property and spent there about s40.0o0. Two shafts were sunk 200 feet and considerable other work done-this was 4 or years ago. The showings are good. There is lime. iron, porphyry, garnet. with copper stains and some chaleopyrite and bor- nite. There are also showings of bor- nite. MT. Collins will proceed to de velop the property and if the resufJs warrant he will organize a company and do business on large scale. The property is located IS miles south of Douglas in Sonora.
 Mir. Collins left the city last night for him home in Calumet, Michigan

CONFIRMS BIG STRIKE

FAIRVIEW, Nsv, Jan. 29.-Con- tinued development on the Golden Boulder Is said to sustain the reports of the big strike there last week. The shaft that is being sunk to connect with the main crosscut tunnel is in solid ore. with signs of becoming more extensive as depth is attained; the same exceedingly rich ore is be- ing piled up for shipment While no attempt Is at present being made to take out tonnage and exploration work will continue alnos the same lines, 1t is the intention to start ship ping as soon as the president. Harry L. Taylor, arrives from Gold6eld and views the property n its present state of high development. MT. Fay. Tor has not been on the ground for several months, owing to the exten- slve operations in Red Top and oth- CT Goldheld bonanxss in which he is largely interested, but is expected here daily to consult with the super intendent. Harry Tibbits.
 There has been . uvely scramble by local people to get hold of Golden Boulder stock, which went on the market at 25 cents last summer. AZ order came in rectnly from New York 1t is said. calling for all that could be had at 35 cents, but not a share was available. It seems that mum ber of wise ones got next to what was going on ard sent in orders several weeks ago at the fotation price. A stream of these orders awoke the pro motors at the Goldneid end of the line about the time the announcement went out that the Golden Boulder had struck 1t rich.
 Work on the Golden Boulder start, ed on the 10th day of May, 1906. and has never ceased; it is one of the best examples of keeping everlastingly at 1t and will stimulate vast amount of development on other prospects in the district, particularly those imme- diately adjoining the Boulder No. claim; the development of shipping mine here shows up several other properties exceedingly well, owing to the continuity of the vein.

MARKET GOSSIP.

Especial Wire to Duey 6 Overlock.)
 BOSTON-Good buying was seen all the list today. The bear party in coppefs has sold the market for three or four days, but found they were not shaking out much long and today when they tried to cover prices rallied easily. Copper Range rallied from SS to 91. Moh to 89, c. 6 A to fS1. and others in proportion with lit. tie stock coming out. The whole mar ket looks like a further upturn as weak holders have been shaken out by this break.
 NEW YORR-Today's market open ed weak and most of the active list sold of during the first hour. A sub stantial rally took place after the early depression. which brought prices up anywhere from H to 2 per cent above their low points. On the rally the market became very dull and at the beginning Of the last hour a selling movement occurred in Reading. Penn and Erie. wkich carried these two lat ter stocks to new low price levels. As seen yesterday. the steel stocks were inclined to be heavy. In the final trading the market was very irregular and in most stocks were weak with considerable activity.
