"At the meeting of the share

New York Market News

l pointed out last week that
the market was due to undergo
a moderate reaction. The past
few days have been days of de-
cline, and the market is again
getting to the level which favors
speculative and investment pur-
chases.
There are not many things
dangerous to the situation, which
are hanging over the Street.
The Erie's financial difficulties
are believed to have been met,
and all danger of a receivership
averted. With the disappear
ance of the Erie cloud will pass
the threatened storm.
Railway earnings are still un-
satisfactory, but the pruning
knife is being used relentlessly
to cut down expenses. and the
next month or two will show
much better results in the net.
The statment of the U. S.
Steel Co. on earnings for the
quarter ending in March is hav-
ing a good effect.
The sensation of the past few
days in the outside market has
been the selling of Yukon Gold.
A large portion of the general
public seemed to believe that
Lawson would carry the stock
Immediately to a point far above
Its Introductory price on the
curb. His failure to do so has
caused a tremendous lot of dis
appointment, especially on the
part of the quick turn" element
among the spectators and or
the part of a few hundred stock
brokers and operators whc
thought they saw in the tremen
: dous volume of orders, which
came in from all parts of the
} county, a solid foundation fol
building up an advancing mar
ket.
Lawson and his supporters
however, think the brokers hav'
made enough outof Yukon in com
missions and are now shaking
out the weak hands. The peo
! pie who have bought Yukor
Gold for investment are though
to have good value and to b
safe, but it will probably b

Increase the

Ohio Kentucky Now Incorporated For
100000 Shares

At the company Offices i'm
mediately after the meeting,
Ernest Godbe said that the oper-
ations would now be carried on
more extensively than at any
time in the past. Development
work would be carried out on a
large scale, and some of the por-
phyry dykes in other portions of
the company's domains aside
from the development work now
being done in the Susan Duster.
1t is planned to equip the Susan
Duster with a concentrating
plant later on in the season, and
place large equipment on the
property wherever it is needed
to get the most satisfactory re-
suits. So far as learned there
was no mention of the proposed
consolidation with the Nevada.
Utah company, and it is believed
from expressions given out by g
number of the officials of the
Ohio Kentucky that no combin.
alton of interests is possible al
this time.

Shipping Ore Daily.

The Nevada-Utah Company
received a new locomotive Tues
day last, which will be used on
their narrow guage between
Pioche and Royal City. The en-
CINE seems to be especially con-
structed for good service on this
road and facilite the shipment of
ore from the latter point.
At present the Nevada Utah
is shipping a carload daily and it
is expected this amount will be
increased within the near future.
The ore comes from the Day
mine, which is in condition tc
supply many tons.

some time before the stock ever
sells at $40, which is about what
it appears to be fairly worth at
the present time.
1t is pointed out, however.
that Lawson will not dare bring
out the new Guggenheim Copper
Combination until he has lifted
Yukon Gold and shown his pub
bic a stable. regular market at
higher prices for the shares
which they so readily took in
his first campaign.
Smelters has displayed marked
weakness of late and it is not
unlikely that the Guggenheins,
having let go of the hide, are
now letting go of the tail. There
are those who say that the Gug-
genheims made a deal when they
sacrificed" their smelters stock
to protect their Ely & Bingham
copper mine investment, where
they can make copper at from
! z to &c as against Amalgamated's
1Oc to 1S, and also to protect
their immense Alaska copper
interests where it is said the
cost of production can be brought
down to 4c per pound.
The Nevada market has been
quiet over-shadowed by the ex-
citemenent in Yukon. Tonopah
mining has, however, moved up
strongly on the announcement
that the company's debt has
been cut in a few months, prac-
tically since the first of the year,
from nearly 5000, 600 to only a
little more than $100, 900. Mont
gomery Shoshone advanced on
one or two good buying orders.
Large orders have been scarce
in this stock for months.

Just a few lines to let you

News comes from the proper

important strike having recently
been made. These properties
adjoin those of the Horn Silver
Mining Company where some Of
the richest gold and silver ore in
the district has been found.
The ore, recently uncovered,
carries gold values in abundance,
and the owners are highly elated
over the prospects. The con-

This Mine Will Be Shipping Ore In

place. The Lyndon mine is one
of the finest properties in the
Comet district, It has been a
producer of much good ore for
years.
Under leases which have been
given from time to time, in the
