Progressing Finely.

A report to THE OASIS from the camp of the Queen Bess Copper Company, near Mowry is to the effect that the shaft is now down between forty.6ve and fifty feet, and the rock in the bottom is streaked with sulphides MT. John son, the president and general manager of the company, who is now in Kansas City, writes that he had assays made from some of the rock in the bottom of the shaft, at the time he left, which was then down but twenty-five feet, from which he got total value of $2 70 per ton in gold and silver. As the rock was leached a great deal he was surprised at attaining such result. Work is pushing in the shaft vigorously, and it will be driven down as rapidly as possible. Mir. Johnson is expected to return from Kansas City within the next ten or twelve days.

 Hogs herethi week 20,700, last week "A 800, same week last year 38,900. The slim run is hard to explain, in view of the strong prices paid here. The argument that owners are feeding for weight, and that later receipts will make mp for presen: deficiency, may ex- plain a part of the shortage, but It does not seem strong enough to cover the whole ground. Packers put over coup yesterday in the shape of decline of , to 20 cents, but it had n9g9od foundation, and prices are 5 to 10 higher to-day.

Odd head of natives also brought that figure, but natives usually lack class, and sell around S6 50 this week. Feeding western lambs sell at $6.35 $50, for good many big strings this week. and feeding wethers $4 50. Fat wethers are worth up to $4.55 to- day, ewes $435, yearlings $525.

WOOD SOLD AS NEAT
"SPREADERS" COST NEW YORK
Frs $2S, 600 A YEAR.
Consumers Pay Heavily, Too, for
Paper Wrappings on Hams
and Bacon.

NEW YORK, June 2S.-W. H. Noyes. a
representative Of Swift & Co., testified at
q hearing at the city hall yesterday that
in 1863 the New York public paid for
$4,000 pounds of wood "spreaders" in
it's meat at an estimated expenditure of
$4,000. He gave his figures to refute
statistics prepared by the city bureau of
weights and measures, which had esti-
mated the amount of wood purchased in
New York as meat last year at $4,000
pounds.
Retail and wholesale butchers alike
gathered at the hearing to give their
side of the case. The city authorities are
trying to remedy short weights and first
hand information is sought.
Hams and bacon weighed before the as
senblage showed how the public is
gulled. A ham. including heavy paper
wrapping. marked 1874 pounds. tipped the
scale at only IL pounds IA ounces. An
other marked 1917 pounds weighed 8
pounds ounces. Similar shrinkage was
shown in bacon.
The retailers blamed it all on the whole
salers.
A campaign Of concerted action was de-
cided upon.

The market opened easy at a decline
of Gals points under active liquidation
and bear pressure. inspired by weak
cables, better weather in the south and
a weak stock market. 1t was said that
July notices amounting to about 10000
bales were being stopped by the bull
leaders, but there was no sign of Inn
portant support in the market, and offer
ings appeared to be chiefly absorbed by
the covering of recent sellers and de-
mand from spot houses at the decline.
The market ruled regular after the
opening.
After selling off to a net loss of about
HAIL points offerings became a little
less urgent and a renewal of support
from the bull leaders. together with COW
ering by early sellers, caused a rally OF
or points from the lowest, with trad
ing less active in the forenoon and prices
at midday showing a net loss of from Z
to IL points Later estimates placed the
July notices at about 10000 bales, which
were said to have been stopped as rapid
