Exploration in the Antarctic regions
has at least one advantage over similar
work in the vicinity of the North Pole.
In the former case the explorer travels
over land. coated with ice, to be sure
but affording fairly firm support Tor
sledges and other vehicles. In the lat
ter the most important stage Of the jour
new lies over floating foes which may
part at any moment. This difference,
however, is to some extent offset by an
other The distance Intervening between
the goal and the point at which an eX-
plorer must leave his ship is greater IN
one hemisphere than in the other. Grant
Land is about four hundred geographical
miles from the North Pole, while Cap
tain SCOTS base in Ross Sea is fully
seven hundred miles from the other end
OF the earth's axis. An expedition going
ashore in Coats Land would be more
than one thousand miles from its desti-
nation. Detours to avoid CreVlces In the
ice would not be required Of seekers for
the South Pole, but glaciers and noun
tain ranges prevented Sir Ernest
Shackleton from making a speedy and
direct dash for it. What hindrances Of
a like nature would be encountered by
a party adopting the Coats Land route
is vet to be determined.

BY the recent spectroscopic revelation
that Halley's comet contains cyanogen,
an extremely poisonous gas, speculation
is revived regarding the possible conse-
duences of an encounter between the
earth and the tail Of this interesting OBJ
iect. Unless the composition of Halley's
comet radically differs from that OF
others there would appear to be no cause
for anxiety. More than once the globe
has passed through cometary train
without any one except the astronomers
discovering the fact, and they learned
only by computation.

Calumet, Mich, Jan. 22.-As forecast
last night the general market opened
strong and advanced rapidly during
the early trading. Steel Common sold
up to SSH but heavy selling in this
issue near the close dropped the price
down to S6ai. Amalgamated, after a
weak half hour, was taken in hand and
lifted to S4ls, but reacted to S3%.
In the Boston list Lake was i'm most
demand and was traded i'm large lots
up to 94is, a new high record. Lake
lost two points near the close. The
third mill test of 200 tons on Lake
is being made today without selection

CHIEF CONSOLIDATED.

How are things looking at the Chief
Consolidated?" Walter Fitch, general
manager of the company was asked
while i'm Marquette this week.
Better all the time" was the reply
"Our shaft is now down 1876 feet and
at the 1.600 foot level the ore is the
richest yet found. We are now engag-
ed in sinking the shaft to the 1,S00
foot level and we expect to find still
richer ore there. We have evidences
of ore at the 1000 and 1900 foot lev
els. and are mining from the 1,400 and
1000 foot levels. The ore contains
silver, lead and gold and is Of the d
rect smelling kind, needing no milling
or concentrating before being shipped
TO the smelter in Salt Lake City. We
are finding a larger percentage OF
gold the deeper we go.
II have not received the December
figures, but i'm November the profits
of the mine were a little over $4,000
above the expenses of operation. I
expect this profit TO increase from
month to month from now on. With

CALUMET AND cORBlN.

The head offices OF the Calumet and
Corbin Mining company, which have
been at Laurium, Mich. have been re-
moved to Duluth, says the Duluth
Herald. This is because the company
has passed into the control of heavy
stockholders of Duluth and st. Paul.
At The annual meeting of the stock
holders held Monday of this week at
Laurium, the only member of the old
board of directors reelected was Capt.
James Wilcox of Mass City, Onton-
ogan county Mich. other members
of the board are William j. Schin-
der DR.. S. C. Arnold and Olin Espey
of st. Paul, and b. J. Cook Of Du-
luth.
The transfer of the company's
books and supplies was made yester-
day to Duluth from Laurium. The di-
rectors believe they have very
valuable piece of mineral property,
which is in the Corbin- wickes dis
trict Of Montana.

year, we hope to. out of the earnings.
pay for these improvements and in
crease the surplus to S25O,OOO. Then
ana not until then. will we be i'm a
position TO consider dividends.
Directors Are Conservative.
Many OF the best properties of the
west have been wrecked by a wild
cat policy of the managers and direct
ors In declaring dividends as soon as
any money accumulated in the treas
ury' the results being that when re-
verses came there was no relief TO be
mad and the company went to the wall.
Chief Consolidated directors have de-
clared In faver of the conservative
policy under which most of the Lake
superior mines have been explored ana
operated. We are keeping up our de-
Veiopment work along with the min
ing OF ore, and when one drift pin
ehes out we can begin work at another
place without any material falling
off of revenue. We do not intend TO
declare any dividends until we are
IN a position to practically assure the
stockholders that dividends will be
paid regularly"
The Chief Consolidated company has
the mineral rights on 400 acres of land
IN rich ore bearing zone, embraced
IN which Is the city of Eureka. One
shaft is now being oneroted hut IN,
years to come it is expected that
another will be sunk on another part
OF the property. The capitalization

residence on the property and per-
sonally superintends the mining and
development work.

HEATING.

Advices received by the home office
of Heating state the mine looks better
now than ever before Consulting
engineer c. w. Pritchett was at the
property within the last month and his
brief summary of conditions is very
favorable. The Blacker No 3 shaft is
being retimbered, and to do this had
to be stripped down, which resulted
in giving a face of freshly broken
ground almost the entire depth of
the old shaft and permitted an exam
ination of the vein on the north side
Of the shaft to a much better advan
tage than ever before Mr.. Pritchett
states that he yas much pleased
with the showing thus exposed and
that it was far better than he had
thought. Practically all of
The ground north of the Blacker or No.
5 shaft is virgin and the shaft is being
put into commission for high duty with
the purpose of commanding this ground
as well as other ground tributary to
it. Deeper development will be sought
as soon as possible. but work now on
hand at the shaft is largely mechani-
cal and rapid ore developments at
this point cannot be expected for n
little time. The first 100 feet of this
shaft is verticle and this Is being
stripped to conform with the incline.
