ALTA PROPERTIES TO
INCREASE PRODUCTION

Manager Tony jacobson of the Column
bus Consolidated left for Alta camp this
morning on two days trip of inspection
among the properties of that camp. Mr..
jacobson stated yesterday that as soon as
the increase in capital 1ation of the South
Columbus had been completed and the ad-
ditional ground taken in by that company.
a great increase would be made in the
operations at the camp. At the old Silver
King group. which is owned by Mr.. Jacob
son and his associates, a splendid grade
of ore has been opened up and shipments
will be made before the winter weather
shall have closed the roads. The Silver
King is not Incorporated as yet. but Is
being worked by Mr.. Jacobson and his
associates personally. At the Columbus
Consolidated the management has run
through 200 feet of milling ore on the 400
foot level and is opening up more of an
excellent grade at every shaft Within
short time the high-grade bodies which
were uncovered in the upper workings will
have been reached by the new drift and
this ore will be shipped as soon as pos
Sible.

UTAH CON. EXERCISES
OPTION WITH A. S. & R. co.

Utah Consolidated may begin the con-
struction of a new smelter next year,
Notwithstanding the repeated reports 20
the contrary. says George w. Walker in
his copper letter. L am told that the COM
Dany has taken advantage of its privilege
under the agreement and renewed its con-
tract with the American Smelling and Re-
filming company for eighteen months,
though the latter would much rather IL
had been terminated 1t seems that the
Garfield smelter has been swamped by
the shipment of 800 tons daily from the
Utah Consolidated mine. and has request
ed time in which to increase its furnace
capacity and put itself in shape to treat
this amount of ore The Utah Consoli-
dated management has held the smelling
company to its contract. however, and is
continuing its shipment of ore and getting
pay for il whether il is smelted or not.
Because of the somewhat strained rela-
lions thus brought about. it is not improb'
BILE that the contract will not remain in
force for a longer period than the two
years at first agreed upon. 1t is known
that some Utah Consolidated interests
strongly favor the erection of a new
smelter on the site in Tooele county. pur-
chased for that purpose. and | believe 1t
will be done.
Very large ore reserves have been devel
oped in the western part of the Utah Con-
solidated property, and the company is
likly to be in a position to double its
present shipments within a year or two.
It. therefore, will have need for larger
smelling capacity, and unquestionably the
best way TO provide il will be by the cree
ton of a smelter of its own.

MARKET
LACKS SUPPORT
Business Must Increase Before
Advances May Be
Expected.

In discussing the general market. Hay
den Stone & Co. say:
midsummer market and though not
as quiz as most. still a leaderless uncer-
tam affair The big men have done their
t Work lor the time being. and have left
Ihe MANAGEMENT of affairs to the lesser
hShts and the small fry The latter have
not come In to any great extent but so
tar as they have come in. they have un-
doubtedly Impaired the markets hitherto
strong position.
Up TO this time the bear party has lain
dormant Now the Professional element
mas turned bearish. and, should they re-
SoiVe upon aggressive tactics they might
make II extremely unpleasant for those
lection. P'0
The market. in other words. lacks for
the present any broad purpose: to use a
rather homely expression. it is between
nay and grass. 1t has blazed way for
business by an advance of 80 to 80 per
cent. Now At must wait for business to
catch up.
During this waiting period it will be
more sensitive than hitherto to unfavor-
able influences. Until now it has ignored
al adverse factors Now it is just in a
position to be affected by the manipu-
lative tactics so much in evidence Until
recently affairs industrlally have been 50
bad that any change must almost neces-
sarily have been for the better. This of
course, was the ideal time to buy stocks
Now this no longer holds true. Further
more. the political and crop situations are
likely to develop factors which. sentiment
tally at least. are apt to be temporarily
unfavorabl
Business. II is true. is picking up gradu-
ally, but it is still spotty. and has con-
siderable ground yet to cover before the
advance predicted by the stock market is
fulfilled. Men are a little inclined to hold
hold back until they are assured of the
result of the election, and those who have
not already resumed in full force arc
hardly likely to do so until after that
time.
As business does improve. it will re-
quire more money, and this, together with
the money needed to move the crops will
blunt a little the bulls most powerful
weapon. viz. cheap money.
Nothing positive can be predicated of
such a market as this. The best that can
be said OF ii is that it offers good oppor-
tunities for the active trader. AS bust
ness revives. and as the crop and po-
litical situations become more settled. the
market will get its second wind and with
the return of the larger interests il will
be prepared II discount what there is
every reason to expect. viz. one of the
most prosperous business years in our his
tory in 1909.
The intervening months. however. must
necessarily be a time of assimilation and
adjustment. and therefore of vacillation.
During this period of waiting. with the
ever present possibility of a serious set
back il is no more than prudent TO adj
wise considerable caution in making pur-
chases.

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Profit Taking and a Decided Short
Movement Sends Prices Down.

Almost every one of the active stocks
listed on the local mining exchange suf-
fered a sharp decline yesterday. There
was most noticeable lack of support

lack of support and the knowledge that
a number of the more active stocks are
selling for more than conditions warrant

to continue throughout the week. Sioux
