EXCHANGE. GOVERNORS
MEET AND ORGANIZE

Three members of the new governing
board of the Salt Lake Stock & Mining
exchange met yesterday afternoon and
organized for the years work ahead by
electing officers and naming the chair
men of the various committees. James
A. Pollock was named as president; w. ].
Browning. first vice president; William
II. Tibbals, second vice president; w. d.
Nebeker, third vice president; ]. A. Shor-
ten. secretary, and G. P. Norton, treas
urer.
President James A. Pollock then an
nounced the chairnen of, the various COM
mittees, who select their own associate
members, as follows: Arrangements, s.
r. Neel; membership, H. w. Doscher;
rules, w. h. Tibbalus; listing, ]. L. Ham
iltOn: arbitration, w. II. Child.
The institution is now operating as an
association, the old Incorporation hav-
ing been taken over by the new organiza-
ton. Membership is no longer represent
ed by shares of stock and the only evil
dence of membership now is simply a
card certifying to such fact and signed
by the proper officers of the association
1t will hereafter be as hard to gain a
membership in this body as it would be
to join an exclusive club. A member who
might sell his seat could give no guaran-
tee that the purchaser would be admitted
to the association; everything would de-
pend on the number of black balls cast
and, while the number of votes required
to keep anybody out has not been made
public, il is understood TO be very few.

At the annual meeting of the BIackbird

patented mining claims adjoining the Gao
tus mines of the Newhouse company, lit.

to campaign of development at the

coming season will witness the taking of

u. S. SHELTER
IS CLOSED DOWN
Third Copper Ore Reducing
Works in Valley 0beys the
Courts Injunction.

The copper smelling works OF the
United States company were closed down
last night. The cleaning-up process has
been going on for a month and for the
past two weeks only two furnaces have
been in operation. 1t was impossible to
get a statement concerning the matter
from either President w. G. Sharp or
General Manager George w. HeintZ,
though the latter verified the report that
the works would close before midnight, 1t
was learned during the afternoon that the
company's lead smelter would not draw
its fires at the same time, but on that
phase of the situation no explanation
could be secured 1t is understood that
there is still sufficient ore at the lead
treating works to keep them running for
several days, but what the company
plans for the future are can not even be
conjectured at this time.
With the closing of the United States
plant three smelling works have been put
out of business by the farmers of the val
ley. First came the works of the Bing-
ham Consolidated and then the Utah Con-
solidated. The American companys
works are still running on a greatly re-
duced tonnage and, if the United States
companys lead plant continues to oper-
ate, there will still be some signs of life
down the valley
1t is understood that the United States
company intends to send about go tons
of Observation-Disclosures ore per day to
the companys smelling works at kennett
Cal, while arrangements are being made
to have the Tampa company handle fifty
tons per day. In this connection 1t may
be said that the plans of the latter COM
pany contemplate the handling of mucn
bigger tonnage than ii ever treated before
and the understanding is that, when II is
turning out a high-grade product, ship
ments will be made to the United states
company's refinery in Illinois.

Then, if the ledge continues to drain off

We are certainly in a good ore-making
country now and the ground we have al
ready gone through can be stopped at a
handsome profit. There are strong indica-
tons that we shall find something rich
above the drift and there is also reason
to expect good results on the foot wall
side. But with 300 gallons of water per
minute pouring out of the drift, we have
not considered 1t wise to court a greater
flow by trying out the foot wall side for
a while, at least That is everything there
is to say at this-time"

COPPER STOCKS IN
BOSTON AND NEW YORK

Following is the daily market comment
of Paine, Webber &, Co, Boston, together
with the range of prices of copper stocks
and other Boston listings in which the
west is interested. as well as a similar
report on New York curb transactions,
by James A Pollock g. Co, and from
which it is secured for use in this de-
partment of The Herald:
Boston, Jan 2S.-The local market again
acted well under the lead of Old D0min-
ion and Utah Consolidated North Butte
has been tagging behind lately and is
about due for a further advance. Royale,
Arizona Commercial, Shannon, Old Do
minion, Centennial. Copper Range, North
Butte. Butte Coalition, Greene-Cananea
and Utah Consolidated should be bought
We firmly believe that good news will
come out on the copper situation and
that Amalgamated Copper will lead a
sharp advance of ten points Do not
think there is any risk in buying the
good coppers at these prices.

There are 100000 tons of ore in sight
in the Ohio property above the 500-foot
level. 1t is $50 feet below that to the
Mascot tunnel, now being driven, which,
when completed. should make 5.OOO.O 900

MEVADA-UTAH AFFAIRS.
Treasurer Burgin Tells New Workers
What the Company Is Doing.

Fred F. Burgin, treasurer and direc-
tor of the Nevada-Utah Mines q Smelt-
ers corporation is back in New York
York from a four months stay in the
west where he has been adjusting the
numerous odds and ends in connection
with the financial affairs of this com
pany, says the New York Commercial.
Mr.. Burgin succeeded in-cleaning up
number of old debts outstanding against
the corporation and in arranging for the
expenditure of money on a basis that
cut off all unnecessary expenses.
THE efforts Of the Nevada-Utah com
pany," said Mr.. Burgin, ARE all to be to-
ward placing the company on self-sup-
porting basis and the production OF ore as
rapidly as that can be accomplished prof
itably. We are now shipping from the
Day group of mines near Phoebe. New. at
the rate of 1.5OO tons a month, and while
the ore is not essentially high grade the
Murray smelter of the American Smelt-
ing q Refining company is glad to get
it as a flux. The income from these
shipments has been meeting the payroll
Of the Phoebe operations SO that the new
work is not costing us any money"
Mr.. Burgin said that the company was
contemplating making number of al
terations at the new Phoebe smeter which
would enable them to reduces their own
ores and thus save the transportation
charges on making ore shipments direct
to Salt Lake.
The companys Last Chance group at
Bingham is still shut down. Work later
may be started at the Comet group in
beaver county, Utah- AT Phoebe it has
been arranged to concentrate all the work
IN specific portions of their property in
order TO save the double expense of run
ming the two deep shafts
The Nevada-Utah enterprise, according
to its president, George f. Learnard. is
now in excellent shape and in a condition
which makes it impossible for any other
companies or consolidation to force its
policy. It will have. with its capital
100000 shares outstanding, about 500 OO0
SaSn IN ITS treasury. 1t has $500 stock
holders, located all over America ana Eif
rope, to draw upon for future capital
should extensive development demand I'M

ers of the Nevada-Utah company is The

Mininu fJotes,

One carload of ore from a Utah prop
erty was all that was released from the
Pioneer sampler yesterday.
]. NJ. CaIlow, the concentrating expert
of the General Engineering company, re-
turned from an extended stay in Colorado
Monday night. Mr.. Callow has been bus
lily engaged in so remodeling and equip
ping the milling plant at the famous
Tomboy gold mines at Telluride that it
will do the work desired. That he has
been accomplishing results goes without
saying.
George o. Bradley of the Utah Copper
company's engineering staff. has returned
from a trip to the properties of the Pitts
burg-Silver Peak company at Blair New.
He reports sixty of the 100 stamps in the
companys bill mill now grinding away.
Mr. Bradley admits having been rendered
the general mana gership of the properties
and the probabilities are that he will ac-
cept.
There was released from the Taylor &
Brunton sampling works yesterday one
car of ore each from Utah, Idaho and
Nevada mines. If local shelters received
no more ore than is now going through
the custom sampling works it would not
be many days till they all closed down.
But there is some ore coming that is
sampled elsewhere and some is being re-
ceived that is sampled at the smelling
companies individual mills.
