Trading on the street today was
very quiet and strictly professional.
At times bidding was brisk, this
brought out quite a few shares. Sew
eral of the local stocks were quite
active, but failed to show any strong
advance, but it now looks as If the
bottom had been reached and that we
will see all of the leading Ely cop
pers several points higher by the last
of this month. Nevada Con. was the
most active stocks in today's trading.
Cumberland Ely and Giroux were
firm and both look good for higher
prices. Ely Central was strong and
in good demand. Mason Valley is
about due for a good advance and is
certainly cheap at present prices.
Boston Ely had a fair demand. The
property is looking very encouraging.
The general market should improve
from now on and a good time to buy
is right at the present time, not af-
ter they advance.

Through dividend reports made to
the Mining World it is apparent that
the metal mines are gradually re-
turning to their normal profit-earn-
ing status as a result of the i'm
proved demand for their various pro-
ducts. A careful compilation by the
Mining World shows that during the
eight months ending with August,
dividends amounting to the larg.
total of $41,491,5 31 have been paid
by n~inety-eight American mines and
metallurgical works. Since their in
r alton these ~niLety-eight prop
critics have yielded the enormous
sum of $576,119,901 in dividends on
an issued capitalization of $496,745,-
1877, a return equivalent to 116 per
cent. Large as this amount Is, 1t
does not include the dividends de-
clared by notwithstanding corpora
tions, metal selling companies and
other organizations that derive great
pecuniary benefit from the mining
and metallurgical industry.

COLE-RYAN PLANS.

The Boston Financial News says:
There is much talk of a consolida-
ton of the Cole-Ryan properties, but
nothing has developed to indicate
that a consolidation is under way.
The management has made great
progress in securing a lower cost at
the Greene under the direction of
Manager Ricketts,, but with the met
al at the present price and in view
of the large number of shares in the
company, there does not to be
much to attract the investors. The
plans for the Giroux are being rapid
ly put into execution, including those
for the erection of a smelter. Cir
oux is known to have very rich ore
bodies and should respond to the ex-
cellent management it now has. T.
F. Cole has taken the control of
another property in the Ely camp
which is probably for the same gen.
eral interests that control the Giroux.
The report that the control of the
Ohio Copper company has been Sc
cured is generally believed, as it
would secure the company's output
for the International Smelter being
erected for treating the Utah Con-
| solidated and custom ores. There
has been some talk of the passing of
| the control of the Boston Consolida-
ted to the same interests but that is
not considered likely at present. The
Mascotte tunnel, controlled by Mr..
Heinze would be a valuable ac-
QUESTION in carrying out the plans
of the Cole-Ryan party in Utah, but
whether Mr.. Heinze would part with
it or mot is uncertain. The North
Butte is under the Cole-Ryan control
and is believed now to be giving
better indications of finding the rich
ore body again. 1t is possible as
Wall Street seems to think that any
or all of these properties may be
consolidated, but there is nothing at
present to indicate that such a plan
is near completion.

NO ACTIVITY on
STOCK MARKET
EFFORTS TO AROUSE INTEREST
IN SPECULATIVE FAVORITES
ARE ENTIRELY WITHOUT
AVAIL.

Stocks narrowed to a professional
rate today. Efforts were made to
keep speculative interest alive by
concentrating operations in one or
two of the usual speculative favorites
and a few novelties, but the response
of the general list was languid.
While banking opinion does not
look for any stringency this fall, the
position Of the New York banking
reserves shows that a restriction of
credits is imperative to conform to
the heavy drain o making on the
cash holdings of the banks. The
$4,244,0O0 withdrawn from the bank
by the ~subtreasury operations since
the last weekly bank statement was
made up compares with an actual
surplus reserve at that time of less
than $4,000,000. The interior has
continued to draw on New York in
the meantime in addition to the sub
treasury requirements.
The low level of merchandise ex-
ports for many months past have
combined with very large imports to
leave the international exchange mar
ket without the usual material for
covering foreign remittances. In the
home financial markets the invest
ment appetite for securities has been
the occasion of complaint by bank
ers and syndicate and various pro-
jected new issues have been delayed.
In some of these a large foreign an
ticipation was expected, which has
been relied on to meet a part of the
maturing Indebtedness of New York
to foreign money markets. With the
season at hand when the normal re-
quirements of the interior make re-
QUESTION upon New York for tens of
millions of dollars, the outlook does
not invite undue extensions of liabili-
ties for holding securities.

Judge Norman Buck, who was

Sullivan mines were in dispute be-

and Kellogg and O'Rourke on the
other. Cooper and Peck owned a
burro which Kellogg and O'Rouke
found while in the act of kicking up
dirt that contained rich pay and they
laid claim to the property. On ac-
count of owning the burrow Cooper

of the supreme court of Idaho and
