COLORADO is Much WEAKER.
Columbus Consolidated aud Iron Bios

Under heavy selling Colorado devel-
opcd a sick feeling tins morning on the
local market and the price was rapid
~ driven down 10 a new low level Of
Stl0 in the past 90 days the stock
has dropped nearly a dollar, although
dividends have been paid regularly
each month. In the market this morn
ing there was a large amount OF mar
gin stock The selling OF stock WAS
heavier this morning Ia this security
than IL has boon Ia some time.
Prices on the market this morning
were slightly on In many Of the stocks
and the lack OF interest on the part OF
the public Is fast making the local
market look like a penny arcade. Ever
since the first Of the year IL Is declared
that persons have used the exchange
as a means of securing ready money
which has been diverted into other lines
OF business. The market has not been
able to absorb the continual dumping
OF stock. In spite OF the effort OF
brokers TO maintain prices they have
gradually slumped TO shadows OF what
they once were. Persons who are close
10 the various brokerage houses de-
clare they have an lost money. 4
comparison of the prices OF two years
ago and az present leads to the ques-
ton. Where did the money go2" The
millions Invested certainly aid not stay
in the market
Columbus Consolidated was steadier
after sagging heavily yesterday. AL
though considerable stock was sold il
remained fairly steady. Iron Blossom
was slightly stronger this morning aud
the margin men we're again In the mar
let after this stock. From an authentis
source IL was learned this morning that
the drift along the ore body has struck
the p0rphyry. and that the leached con-
dillon noted shows that greater depth
must be secured.
on the curb market there was less
interest today and the unlisted securi-
ties were not As strong. Bingham Cen
tral Standard was sold at 80 cents for a

new KIND OF SHIP.
She Is Constructed Without Magnetic
Metal in Her Hull.

New York, June ia departure in
shipbuilding was taken today with the
launching of the Nonmagnetic survey
yacht Carnegie at Lebo's yard in
Brooklyn. The vessel was built for the
Carnegie Institute of Washington, and
is intended for the use of the insti-
tution's department of research in ter
prove of great value in survey work,
especially in observations to determine
variations in the magnetic needle. The
absence of magnetic metal in the YES
sers hull is expected to make the work
accurate and easier.
A producer gas plant, said to be the
first installed on board vessel, is
another of the new features of the
Carnegie equipment. This engine will
consumption Of 120 pounds of anthra-
cite coal an hour. Her bunker capac-
ity of % tons will give her cruising
radius of 1000 miles at a speed of six
miles an hour; but most of the time
the Carnegie will rely on her sails for
motive power.
She is brigantine rigged and has a
sail area of $4,000 square feet. Her
length over all is 155 feet. Her water
line length 128 feet, her beam 33 feet
and her draught IL feet. She has a
displacement of about 56S tons. With
the exception Of the engine, pistons and
cams, the producer and the range
CRATES, there is not a piece of magnetic
metal in the ship. Manganese bronze,
copper and aluminium have been utiliz-
ed instead. The Carnegie will be made
some time in july. On her return she
will be resheathed in yellow metal, pre-
paratory to a cruise in southern wa
ters. She cost $125,O00.
