MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Market Opens Quite Strong but Eases
Down During the Day.

The weeks trading on the local ex-
change opened strong yesterday, but as
the day wore away prices were eased
down. 1t looks as though there was go
ing to be quiet times on the exchange for
while, though strikes in some of the
numerous new propositions at Finite are
likely to fan the flame and start things
going again without advance notice or
warning. Victor Consolidated was the
leader in the days trading ard al the
start 1t looked as though the stock might
go we'll over the 20c mark. 1t failed TO
get above 19c, however, and whsn the day
closed the stock had sold back 10 16kzc-
This reflects in manner the action of
the market as a whole, though two or

Manager D. c, Jackling. of the Bling

a strike had been made in Standard
ground that is likely to prove of partic-
ular Importance to the company. Leasers

made in the Saginaw tunnel workings and

try from Central workings and will soon
cut the Saginaw ledge at a depth of APP
proXimately $50 feet below the point
where the strike has been made and in
absolutely virgin territory.
Under present market conditions of the
stock, Mr.. lacking did not know wheth-
er any mention Of the strike should be
made or not. fearing. evidently. that TO
say anything might be construed as an
attempt to boost He finally consented
to stand for a notification of the dis

Opment work is being pushed right along

ALLIS-CHALMERS FAILURE
REPORT A CANARD

In the closing days of last week the
private wires carried rumOrs affecting the
financial status Of the Allis-Chalmers
company, the great machinery house of
Chicago and Milwaukee. and some of the
local newspapers published the rumor as
fact. A letter to F. f. Marcy, Salt Lake
manager of the big concern, from w. H.
Whiteside, president of the company, sets
at rest any question as to the solvency
of the concern and explains that the
rumor was started by competitors anx-
ious to destroy its credit and affect the
stock market at the same time. Crippled
wires prevented Geographic denial of the
report. In his letter to Mr., Marcy, Presi-
dent Whiteside says:
There is no fOundat ton whatever for
the rumor that a receivership has been
asked for for this company. The COM
pany was never in a more prosperous
condition. We have orders on our books
at the present time aggregating SIS, 400 600,
which assure a full years work ahead
of us for all manufacturing departments.
These orders have been taken at excep-
tionally good prices and the company is
showing substantial earnings. The COM
pany's assets are in amount equal to
nearly two and one-half times its liza
bilities."

AMERICAN FORK MINES.
Several Properties Shipping-MilI
for Camp.

Superintendent George SummervilIe OF
the Pacific was down from the Blue
Rock mine in American Fork canyon the
middle of the week, and brought very en-
coura ging reports from that property.
The immense body of sulphide ore. which
they have been working in for some time,
appears to be making into the carbon
ate ore In a drift from the upraiSe they
have encountered some very good look
ing rock and from all appearances the
ore is becoming carbonized and indica-
tons are that a body of carbonate ore will
shortly be encountered. 1t is the inten-
ton of the management of the company
to start tunnel to the north of the pres
ent drift and tunnel into where they are
at present working, as the air is so bad
that they cannot continue in the drift.
From reports that have come down, and
from returns on a shipment of seven
tons which netted $780, the stock of the
company has advanced very materially
in price Old miners who have visited
the property lately say that 1t Is no
longer a prospect but a sure mine and
will be among the regular shippers in a
short time.
The Mountain Dell mine on Miller hill
has been shipping ore during the past
week The ore is of very high grade
and will net the owners a handsome
profit. They have a large body of the
ore and from reports that come from
there shipments viii be coming down
regular from now on
D. d. Houtz of Provo is starting a
force of miners at work on claims which
he recently acquired. He intends to do
some extensive development work on
them and expects to have something to
show for his labors before the season
closes Mr. Houtz has a great deal of
faith in the American Fork district He
is heavily interested in the Mountain
Dell property. and predicts a great flu
ture for that mine.
There are over forty teams hauling ore
from the Tying mine at present. They
are bringing down an average of a car
a day. which is being shipped to the
smeiters Reports from camp are to the
in the history of the mine. The ore is
very rich in silver and is making the
operators a handsome profit. They ex-
pect to keep all teams busy from now
until snow flies.
Nephi Packard and sons of Springville
who have been sorting over the dump of

This makes three cars that they have
