BOSTON MINING STOCKS
Special service to The Herald by j. G. WI
son, 212 West Fifth street. Los Angeles.

BOSTON, Jan. 25.-Heavy liquidation con-
tinued throughout the list today and selling
on stop loss orders, and the closing out Of
weak margined accounts and POOLS together
with bear raiding, caused the weakest session
we have in a long time. AT no time did
anything like organized support appear, and
only occasional small rallies from the shorts
relieved the decline. 1t is SAIL the directors
of the Anaconda company Will hold a meeting
TO consider an increase of the capital stock of
that company for the purpose Of absorbing the
other Butte mines, including Amalgamated,
which looks as II the Ama1gamated merger is
at last being brought to head, and no doubt
others will soon follow.

MAN BUYS
GROUP NEAR RAY
PAYS $4,000 FOR SEVEN
CLAIMS
BOND CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE DE-
VELoPMENT
Promising. Property Adjoining Ray
Copper company's Holdings,
Owned by Prospectors,
Goes to Angeleno

PHOENIX, Jan. 25.-A transaction
has just been completed in this city
between Dan Mcfarland, Los Angeles
mining man. and S. ]. Tribolet and as
sociates of Phoenix whereby the for
mer takes a bond on a group of seven
mining claims adjoining the Ray Cop
per company's holdings for 1000 I'm
der the terms of the bond the first pay
ment of 10 per cent will be made in
July and the balance in year, and
within thirty days a churn drill must
be at work on the property and be
kept at work until the sale becomes a
finality or the project is abandoned.
This is a small deal compared to
some mining enterprises that require
six or seven figures to talk about, but
1t means business in a way that indi-
Gates more than some larger bargains.
The essence of it all is to develop the
property, meanwhile giving the poor
prospector and the buyer both chance.
If the mine-is worth anything the price
paid for 1t will prove to be cheap, al
though 1t will give the prospectors and
locators big returns for their small
investment and their patience. If it
fails to make good, the buyers will not
be out a great deal of money. In fact,
they will begin work as soon as posi-

enthusiastic than today or they will
have cold feet, in which case the pros
pector will also have a better line on
the property through the development
work accomplished.
For Benefit of Camp
Tribolet says he is not a mining man
but d. meat cutter. He sells beef and
sells a lot of it in the Ray country,
and he can only sell it when someone
is there to eat it, He believes, there
fore, in encouraging the mining in
dustry all he can.
Tribolet said he would take chance
with them, and for the last two years
has financed the assessment work end
of 1t and kept the thing moving. If 1T
proves to be a mine his quarter interest
will have been easily acquired. If it
does not, it will not be the first money
he has lost, and the developing fea-
ture of the contract is more important
than the payment feature, for by it he
will be able to better tell whether it
Is worth spending any more money on
it. A feature of the contract is that
he may have a man. on the ground at
all times to see the result of the eX-
ploration work of the churn drill.
If the sale is finally contaminated the
four partners will receive ample re-
turn for their time and money spent,
and a fine profit beside, while the buy
ers will probably have millions of dol
lars worth of ore in the ground.
