WHEAT and CORN
MARKETS UNCHANGED
Moderately Active Business
With Half Poinf Loss After
Opening Recovered.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-For a time
after the opening the market showed
a little easier tone in wheat and the
deferred deliveries lost half a point.
The decline was due to receipts Of
fair proportions and good weather.
The evening-up process that seems TO
be quite fashionable these days
caused the recovery.

THE CROUCH.

The fields are full OF beauty
And the woods al fun OF song,
The heart is thrilled with duty,
As the moments dance alOuEs
The sunbeams brightly failing
With the gentle lovers kiss,
While tender hope is calling
Unto everlasting bliss
But then,
Just when
A sense Of alteration
Nestles by the peaceful couch,
Old Adam takes his station
And the man must have his crouch.
A solemn hymn Is sounding
Mid the countless joys OF earth.
An earnest faith Astounding,
In a nObler spirit-birth.
Creations lord uprigh-ly
Points the path that leads on high
While drumming loudly, brightly,
OF mansions in the sky
But he
You see,
Would be far more than mortal
Did he fail TO Erimly crouch
By salvatiOns gilded portal
To proclaim his gloomy crouch.

the tramway from the mine to the mill
can be completed within 80 days and
that the mill win be ready to start before
June /
Mr. John F. Wixford, thinning expert,
here from St. Louis, to examine the Po-
tosi mine and to advise that company re-
garding the character of the mill to be
built to properly treat Potosi ore, paid a
visit to the Banner mill, in company with
the manager and secretary Of the Potosi
company, and expressed his opinion that
it looked to be the most complete and
convenient mill for its capacity, he had
seen.
Now that sufficient money has accrued
from the sale Of the company's stock to
pay off all the obligations and to run the
mine and mill until returns may be look
ed for, the executive committee is consid-
erlng an advance IN the price OF STOCK YET
to be sold and notifying its agents that
no more will be sold at one dollar per
share but giving them time to close nego-
tiations now pending, before the advance
is made.
Work in the mine is going on as usual,
with small force of men working in
Nos and levels north, with the ore
probably slightly improving in grade as
progress is made. The upraise toward
the surface from No. level is being con-
tinued, with good grade of ore the full
width of the shaft.

Mr.. John F. Wixford, of St. Louis, a
chemist, metalurgist and mining expert,
who has acquired fame by his chemical
precipitation of the mud in Missouri river
water used in st. Louis, arrived here last
week to examine the Potosi and report
upon it in the interest of eastern capital
lists and has since employed the time in
thoroughly examining the property and
sampling the ores taken from all parts Of
it upon which to base the report made for
his clients, and is now visiting other
mines to get better conception of what
is being done in the camp. OF course,
we can only guess at what his report may
be, but that he has been careful, pains
taking and thorough is quite manifest.
Work has progressed at the mine stead
lily during the week, on both the north
and south drifts of No. levels, the north
drift being now in 22O feet, with Is inches
Of the usual grade of ore showing in the
face, which is now opposite a point on
the Knickerbocker vein where the ancient
shaft was sunk ON the latter. A crosscut
will be run from this point to cut the
Knickerbocker vein under the old work
ings. The drift south on the vein is now
in 240 feet, in extremely hard granite
with streaks of quartz all through it and
with even the granite highly mineralized
the entire width of the drift.
Yesterday survey was made with the
intention Of running a crosscut tunnel
from the west to cut the adit tunnel on
the shaft level south. This crosscut will
cut the adit tunnel distance of more
than 300 feet in, and will not be more
than $50 feet long. AS this old adit is
badly caved and would require new tim
bering, it has been thought cheaper to
run this new crosscut than to clean it out
and re-timber Besides it will provide a
new dumping ground for the waste fur
ther up the gulch.

ing for the delivery of six mails week at
Murphy, and the company had been car
rying it daily, it refused to carry a Sun
day mail. Then the postoffice depart
ment, because the star route contractor
had no mails to carry on Sunday, cut off
one-seyenth Of his pay. For the first
time in forty years Silver City was de-
prived Of its Sunday mails. 1t seemed to
her people as they thought of it, that the
nearer the railroads reached the camp the
more unsatisfactory the mail service had
become. Old timers declared that when
stages reached here from Winnemucca,
New, 2l0 miles distant, at cost Of $50, :
900 per year to the postoffice department
for the line between Winnemucca and
Boise, they count, every day in the week,
the time of their arrival here, within
less than one hour. When the Short Line
reached Nampa, within 50 miles of the
camp, and the mails reached us from that
place, the hour of their arrival was not
quite SO certain, but no complaints were
made. But since they have come from
Murphy, the schedule time Of their reach
ing there has been considerably subject
to the whims of the manager of short
plug road, and the Sunday service has
been cut off.
The people here have petitioned that
it be put on again, but instead Of that it
has been decreed that it shall come by a
longer route and arrive and depart at the
most unreasonable hours.

The adit tunnel is now being conlin-
urd north from the point where the up
raise was made, connecting it with the
old Trask shaft and the surface. Fully
20 tons OF high grade tale and copper
stained ore is now piled at the mouth
of the tunnel, taken out while making
the upraise aud from the tunnel south
of it. As the tunnel is being driven
further north than the upraise the
width of the vein is increasing, the
character and value of the ore remain
ing quite as good as at any p int yet
worked. Four men are now engaged il
work in the mine. No arrangements
have yet been made for either milling
or shipping the ore piled up at the
mine.
