PROGRESS OF DRILLING
AT THE JUAB OIL WELL

The Juab Oil company's oil we'll was
down to the l50-foot mark at noon yes
terday, and the expectation was that 1t
would be 200 feet deep last night. Be
fore the fO0-foot mark was reached, water
was tapped and work had to be sus-
pended until the hole could be cased off.
That work was successfully done and
the rig was pounding away without in
terruption again yesterday. Secretary G..
r. Raymond and J. II. BURNER are go
ing down to Juab tonight, as they want
TO be on the ground when the well is
brought in, an event that is scheduled for
Saturday or Sunday. at the latest. ac-
cording to the expert opinion of the dis
lance that will have to be bored to get
the oil-bearing strata.
Sunday a special train is going to be
run from Nephi to Juab to accommo-
date the people there who have expressed
a desire to see the drilling rig in opera
ton, or the we'll flowing oil. If such
proves to be the case.
AS 400 feet is the limit set at which
oil will be encountered. the well will have
been finished for at least half the dis
lance this morning. Casing is being used
all the time now. and ii is not expected
that anything viii happen to prevent
making approximately 100 feet for each
twenty-four hours. That would finish the
well tomorrow night, and, allowing an
other day or two for the unexpected.
which usually happens, news that oil has
been struck should be coming from the
we'll by Sunday, at the latest.

HECLA COMPANY
SHARES LISTED
Beaver County Proposition
Makes Fine Showing in
Statement.

One of the incest exhibits that has been
made by a company listing its shares
on the local mining exchange was that
made by the officers of the Hecla Mining
d. Milling company whose stock was
called for the first time yesterday
Inc statement shows that the company
Is capitalized for only 100000 shares, par
81, with one-half of the amount set aside
as treasury stock. OF this treasury stock
1o,oOo shares have been sold and the treas
ury still holds 175,O00 shares, as well as
5000 in cash. The company's indebted
ness Is only $500, and the notation is
made that shipments of ore from the
property, after a forced suspension last
fall on account of smelter conditions,
have again been resumed. the first con-
Segment now being in transit. The re-
port also shows that during last year,
before the order to cease shipping Was
given, the company marketed 5000 worth
of ore, carrying fine values in silver. lead
and gold.
The company owns eight claims in
Beaver county, nine miles from Milford,
the shipping point on the San Pedro
road Development work consists of 500
feet of tunneling. 10 feet of wines, $50
feet of raises and 100 feet of cross-cuts,
and the ore in sight at the property at
the present time is estimated to have a
market value of $4,000. III. p. Clark, cash
president of the company; W. II. Shear
man, of the same institution, is treas
urer, and j. NJ. Reynolds is secretary and
manager of the property. The company
has full and unincumbered title to all
its property, which has been surveyed for
patent.
1t is not often that a prospect is listed
on the exchange that has a cleaner rec
ord or better showing, all around, than
that made by the Hecla company.

NEVADA DIVIDENDS
FOR MONTH OF JUNE

Dividends have been declared by five
mining companies operating in southern
Nevada in the month OF June alone.
amounting to $4,000. says the Goldfield
Tribune This does not include consid-
cradle amount OF money realized as prof.
its from leasing enterprises for which there
are no authentic reports, and the figures
do not comprise profits from such VEN
lures as the hydraulic operations at
Round Mountain.
But for the litigation involving apex
rights and the attendant Injunction pro-
ceedings which have operated to suspend
all work on many producing leases. il is
more than likely that these figures would
be materially increased, as. in the case
of the MISUNDERSTANDING lease alone, the
last dividend OF $4,000 which has been
impounded by the federal court, might
well have been succeeded by this time
by another dividend if the property had
not been idle.
The companies which have declared div
idends during the month of June and the
sums to be distributed to the stockhold-
ers are as follows:
Florence Goldfield Mining COM
Rogers syndicate lease Ohree divi-
Mohawk Combination lease 10000
Round Mountain Mining company. 32,O00
Tonopah Mining company .......... 100000
Total dividends in June ........ .S5l7, 600

PRICE OF WOOL ADVANCED
Demand Is Said to Be Growing and
Further Upward Movement
Is Predicted.

WoolgroweIs were elated yesterday
when Secretary c. B. Stewart of the Utah
Woolgrowers received telegram an
nouncng that the price of wool has adj
vanced to - cents a pound in Boston,
which would mean about II cents a pound
on the range.
But there is little wool left in the hands
of the sheepmen, with the exception of
the clips that were placed in storage.
From the chief eastern wool markets
the report has been received that con-
signments have ceased and that the deal
ers are buying anything in the way of
staple.
The interest in the wool situation has
been transferred from the west to the
eastern wool market
Sales in Boston alone during the past
week amounted to 100000 pounds. 1t is
said that both dealers and manufacturers
are now eager to buy and the indications
are that there will be a continued up
ward movement in the price of wool.
With the exception of Montana and
other sections, where the shearing is late,
this years clipping has been completed.
The amount of the wool produced is no
longer a matter of guesswork. 1t is said
that this years clip contains a smaller
percentage of staples than last years
clip.
