ganization known as the Master

proprietors of the printing Offices,
and Is to protect themselves against
what they shall consider exhorbitant
demands by workmen, and is also
for the purpose of discussing all sub
iects which are of Importance to the
publishing and job printing offices.

printing offices in town have been
considering the advisability of form
ing an association. Although the
majority are in favor of the organ
ization there are some who in all
probability will not join. At the
meeting last evening there were
seven delegates present representing
six job printing Offices and one news
paper.
The committee which was ap-
pointed at the first informal meeting
of the association to draw up by
laws, made its report, which was ac-
cepted. The bylaws are said to be
brief.
The association elected no officers
but selected a standing committee.
which will serve in the capacity of
officers. The committee is composed
of ii. II. Heminway of the Hemin-
way Press Co, A. c. Matteson of
the Waterbury Blank Book Co. and
William j. Pape of the Republican.
They will elect their own chairman
and secretary.
At the next meeting of the associ-
alton, which will be held In two
weeks time. MIR Lee, of the firm of
Price & Lee of New Haven, will give
an address ON how to manage job

Frog and switch manufacturers re-

progress, orders coming mainly from
the traction lines. IL is noted that
there is d great volume of this class
of work in progress in this city and
vicinity, together with the independ-
ent lines in New York state and New
England. The traction lines under
the control of the steam lines are
buying almost nothing. There is also
a fair inquiry noted for girder sec
lions, but orders are usually in lots
ranging from 100 10 500 tons each.
A tentative inquiry is reported for
about 1000 tons of 80 pound sections

pectations, dealers are well satisfied
with the total tonnage placed, and
there is every reason to believe that
the April business will be greater
than that of March. As was the
case in February, the bulk of the
business has gone to the small fabri-
Gators, who have made some excep-
tionally low prices. The unwilling
ness of the steel mills to shade prices
on shapes, and the improvement in
the financial situation has brought
out many orders, and also a good
number of new inquiries. The Le-
high Valleys order for several small
bridges is still held up. while among
the new inquiries in the market is
one for several small bridges for ex-
port to Cuba. OF late the export bus
mess has fallen off to a marked ex-

there will shortly be resumption of

ELY MEN TELL SALT
LAKE OF BRISK TIMES
HERE-.THE HUNTER

Messrs. Whitehead and Neil, prom
inent business men and mine opera
tors in the Ely district, are in Salt
Lake City on business connected with
their interests in White Pine county.
says the Salt Lake Herald. They re-
port Ely improving in various ways,
especially in a business sense, after
a period of depression following the
financial stringency that has cast a
gloom over the country for several
months. These gentlemen are the
owners of the Bunker Hill and Sui
Ivan property, near the famous old
Hunter mine, some rs miles or so
north of Ely.
There has been a great deal of
money taken from the Hunter prop
erty, and the Bunker Hill and Sulli-
van Is thought to contain the same
sort of resources. This, the present
owners are going TO test thoroughly,
and work at depth is to begin soon.
Regarding the Hunter property, J. b,
Simpson, the well known Ely oper-
ator, now a resident of this city, has
some interesting history TO give,
which illustrates some of the uncer-
tainties of mining. He said Mon
day:
Several years ago | was one of
two who secured an option on the
Hunter property for something like
$4,000. The mine has produced a
great amount of wealth, just how
much is not definitely known. 1t was
abandoned by the first workers for
the reason that the ore pinched out
and that was why we turned the OPP
ton down eventually. Thousands o
tons of ore must have been treated
by the small smelter the owners bat
on the property, for there was al
enormous Stag dump there when We
examined It.
THE ore was a sand carbonate
and flowed at the stroke of the pick
like shelled corn before shovel
| understand now that the present
owners have turned up one of the
big mines of the state of Nevada, the
ore being found at depth by means
of a long tunnel. 1t is reported that
the ore carries some copper, from Az
to 65 per cent lead, and up to 400
ounces silver per ton. But we could
not look as far into the mountain
then as they can today with that long
tunnel
