THEREIN STARTS CAREER
IN THE PRODUCING GLASS

The property of the Seven Troughs
Therien Mines company began its ca
reer as a producer a few days ago
when the treatment of about thirty
tons of shipping ore from the WihuJa
Gold Mines company lease thereon was
begun in the ten-stamp mill of the
Seven Troughs Kindergarten Mining
company
1t was originally intended by the
lease management to ship the ore to
the Selby smelters for reduction, but
this plan was abandoned, the man
agement of the Kindergarten mill con-
senting to suspend the treatment of
its own rock long enough to make a
run of the thirty tons from the lease.
1t is estimated by the lease man
agement that the thirty tons of ore,
much of which is of a picture grade,
will average around $500 ton. AL
though the treasury of the lease COM
pany is in a healthy condition, it has
been the aim of the management to
place the proposition on a self-sup-
porting basis at the earliest possible
moment, which will have been accom-
plished when the returns from the
mill run have been received, and
which will be followed by the most
extensive campaign OF work thus far
attempted ON the block of ground.

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, August 6.-The speculation
for the advance in stocks was hampered
again today by the disquieting buoyancy Of
the wheat market. Speculative operations
are discernibie as partly responsible for the
speculative jumps which have occurred in
the wheat market in the last few days and
allowance is made for this fact in estimat-
ing the significance of the price movement
as an index of crop conditions The iinan-
cial district has not relinduished its COM
Portable faith in the prosperous crops for
the year already practically assured.
The news of the high temperature of the
last few days, however, has not been with
out disturbing effect, coming at a period
recognized as critical for the spring wheat
crop Private experts in the employ of
speculative houses both in grain and stocks
have added the burden of alarming reports
of the extent of the harm done to spring
wheat by the rust. These influences were
at work at full force in todays financial
markets. With the temperature at the
of discomfort in Wall street itself the
professional proht-taking speculators were
more than ever impressed with the possi-
bilitles of burning up the crop before
it is garnered. The government crop re-
port to be published Friday Is awaited
with more than usual interest. The sinister
import allowed for the rise in the price of
wheat of effect in curtailing rather than
in preventing the advance.
Prices in many instances in fact rose to
new high levels for the present year, al
bettered in that respect. OF the stocks
which are favorites with the professional
traders this generally true. The group
of metal industries all notably strong.
American National Lead and American
Smelling especially, were buoyant and out
stripped their companions in the group.
Some of the railroads running through ter
ritory in the southwest took up the ad-
vancing tendency after reaction set in
for the spring wheat grades The squirt in
Rock Island preferred was given some
speculative significance a possible rehec-
ton Of the entry into the movement of the
group of capitalists in control of that prop
erty Amongst the factors making for re-
strant were the preparations made by the
interstate commerce commission, to investi-
gate the proposed increase In freight
charges. The news of activity by the de-
partments of justice in seeking evidence to
prosecute the suit against the Hartman
railroad merger was regarded a possible
disturbing factor it shall develop The
resort to advertising to incite a speculative
furore in stocks was looked at askance as
likely to arouse distrust rather than to in
spire confidence. The sustained strength of
wheat told of the speculative tone of stocks
the day wore on helped to make the
closing easy.
Bonds were strong. Total sales, par
