EASTERN MARKETS BRING
RUIN TO THOUSANDS

R J. Evans returned from business
trip east Tuesday night that had kept
him away from home for nearly three
weeks. During his stay he took occasion
to visit the Cobalt camp and he states
that there are three or four good mines
there.
Eastern market conditions. he says. are
something that the westerner cannot I'M
derstand unless he goes there Published
accounts of conditions. he declares do not
give the least conception of the ruination
that has swept through the stock specu-
lating ranks. while the whole truth will
never be known. Men rated as million
aires a short time ago are now worse
than penniless. while hundreds of thou
sands of people in modest circumstances
six months ago are now seeking enDIov-
ment at labor they would previously have
considered beneath them.
while there has been a shaking I'D in
Utah" said Mr.. Evans ''the people here
don't have the least idea of how much
better off they are than the multitudes
in the big cities who have been absolute
" wrecked"

"POCKET OF WATER" CUT
IN THE ELY WITCH

The miners of the Witch shaft of the
Ely Witch Copper company were flooded
out today by an unexpected deluge of
water from the west drift. on the 300
foot level. and as a result work has been
suspended for few days, says the Ely
Mining EXpositor.
l.. W. Wickes, the> superintendent of
that company, has been trying to secure
the services of engineers ano other men
to assist him in cleaning out the shaft. He
believes that it will take at least week
before the Witch will be in shape to re-
sumo work.
Il think that it was simply a pocket
of water said Mr.. -Wickes to an Ex-
postor man. land | don't think that it
will give us any further trouble. We
have been bothered for the last week with
water, but this flood came in the nature
of a SURPRISE

FROM PINE GROVE MINES
AND THE OIL FIELDS

Henry Schepers. one of the pioneers of
the Pine Grove district. i'm Beaver county
has returned from a trim to the mines
there in which he is interested and a nil
grimage into the Virgin City oil district
The oil country" said he during the
afternoon. looks good to me. l am not
an expert in oil but | saw lots of it dur
Ing my trip and ] also saw number of
drilling plants being erected and others
going into the field. 1t looks like bust
ness to me and the experts down there
are certainly most sanguine lot.
There is not much that is new TO re-
port from the properties in the Pine Grove
district at the present time other than
the rich strike that has been made by the
McCauley crowd OF Milford on property
adjoining the Revenue holdings on the
east. When I was at the Milford crowd s
ground a few days ago they had five
feet of ore that I was told would go ZIG
ounces silver per ton. ! am pretty ia
miiar with the ores down there and I
was convinced that their estimates of its
value were correct 1t is a fine looking
property and 7 believe it is going to
make big mine. But Pine Grove is a
rich mineral district and a number of
great mines will be made there

BETTER SMELLING LIME
IN SIOUX CONSOLIDATED

colonel Ed Loose was up from Provo
Yesterday He was asked what had ham
pened at the Sioux Consolidated to start
the stock on the upgrade, whether a
strike had been made or not
There has been no strike made that
know of, he answered. 1.-THE shaft is
now down. I understand, about $50 feet;
there mas been change in the lime to
the man with a, nose for ore it smells
different. But seriously speaking. the
shaft is now getting down into the coun-
try where. if there is ore it ought soon
to be in evidence. 1t is located. you know
pretty close to the Colorado lines and
there has been a suspicion. at least, that
the fissure of the latter makes through
into our Phoebe S. claim. | suppose the
present buying of the stock is prompted
by those features sof the business: they
don't want to wait until a strike has been
made before getting in"

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Stocks Were Stronger All Down the
Line and Closed at the Top.

The mining share market presented a
stronger appearance yesterday than it has
done for several weeks. There was a
sharp rally in Colorado, Lower Mammoth
and number of others. and the character
of the buying left the impression that bot
tom has been finally reached and that all
the weak holdings had been Jared loose.
Trading was not as heavy as usual and
the excitement that accompanied the rap
id decline and dumping of margined
stocks was almost entirely lacking.
During the two regular and open board
calls a. total of Is, 629 shares of stock, with
a selling value of 500 1863. 90 changed hands.
