GAY q sTURois GOSSIP.

Calumet Mich, March 5.-The Lake
group was the whole copper market
today, with North Lake the leader,
opening at 1875 and selling up to 25 on
a large volume of trading. North Lake
cut the No. 1 Adventure lode with
diamond drill the lode is 23 feet wide
with 10 feet well mineralized and six
inches very rich.
The early activity in North Lake
started doings i'm Lake which moved
up to S0h; Bohemia sold up to Is; In
diana 80 and South Lake 13%.
With the exception of the Lake
group the market was dull but strong
and the closing was at the best prices
for the day.
OF the local curbs, Superior & Globe
lead in activity and good buying took
place at 1as with offerings at that price
on the close.
Fremont has been i'm good demand
the past few days at $500. AS there
Is but 10000 shares of this stock out
it would not surprise us to see much
higher prices in the near future.
Cactus was well bought at SIX.
New York, March 5.-The feeling af-
ter the close and this morning is con
siderably mixed. The labor situation
in Philadelphia is causing a great deal
of anxiety and although ii is generally
admitted to be poor policy to sell
stocks on strike news, conservative
people DO not feel like loading up with
securities until this changes for the
better. Reported heavy purchases Of
copper metal are frequent.
Probably the truth of the matter Is
that large consumers are making in
quiries preparatory to purchasing.
The continued strength in American
Tobacco securities has much to dc
with returning confidence.
Good buying orders continue to Pen
ma, Canadian Pacific, Southern and
Union Pacific. but the talk is so con-
hicting on the later that we would
prefer waiting before making pur-
chases Little change expected in the
bank statement.-J. III. Wainwright.

UNLISTED STOCKS.

j. A. Minnear & Co. say today:
North Lake was the decided feature
of the copper share trading today. 1t
jumped up by points to $25, that price
being bid for the stock at one time.
1t eased off slightly before the close,
but the buying at all times was better
than the Selling. In sympathy with
the North Lake movement Indiana
went up to $50. South Lake to 13& and
Lake to $50. All eased off slightly in
the later trading. Bohemia sold at
SIS, and at these prices looks good.
Hancock has ordered a large amount
of machinery for its permanent equip
ment, and as a consequence will UNI
doubtedly require further funds from
shareholders, possibly next month. An
assessment will likely not be more
than 81 per share. The Boston copper
market was completely overshadowed
by the movement in the Lake group of
stocks. La Sale continued under pres
sure.

 The Arizona Gazette has this to say in reference to the big hose race run here on the 4th. and which the Bisbee team won:
 Though somewhat disappointed over the loss of the big hose race at Bis bee the Phoenix hose team which re- turned home last night are well pleas ed with the treatment they received at Bisbee. I..sbee won the hose race in 25 1-5 seconds; Lowell was second in 20 2-5 seconds.
 The Phoenix team ran the 100 yards to the plug in II seconds and Tn % seconds had the hose laid ready for the nozzle. The plugman turned on the water a trifle too soon or the men would have done the trick in 24 seconds and won.
 Ed Luke was second in the 100 yard foot race. being beaten by Bis bee man who did 1t in 10 2-5 seconds. All the teams at the Bisbee meet an nounced that they would attend the territorial fan next fall and compete for the prizes.

CAMERON RECEPTION.

DOUGLAS. July S.-(Special) )-
 Attorney David Benshimol is at the head of the publir reception which is to be rendered to Delegate Ralph Cameron in the city park when the Arizona representative shall be able to come to Douglas, though the at torney denies that he is chairman. maintaining that there should be no chairman until the democrats shall appoint a committee to act with the one named by the Republican club. He maintains that the reception should be by the people in general to the man elected to represent them and not by any particular party President O'Donovan will probably name some democrats to participate If they desire some time today. Then Mir. Benshimol expects to organize the committee and lay out pro gram. One feature of this is al ready planned and that is a chorus of forty-eight young girls. one for ev- cry state in the Union. including the two proposed new states, very pretty idea and appropriate one. It is practically the first time that many of these have had the opportunity to sing truthfully My Country" This chorus will probably be the prettiest part of the proposed recepetion.
 Attorney Benshimol cannot yet an- nounce when the reception will be held. He states that the committee has heard from Mir. Cameron and were informed that the delegate was delayed in departing from Washing ton by the illness oS Mrs. Cameron. This prevented Mir. Cameron from at- tending at the celebration in Globe as he expected. He added that he would take his wife to Flagstaff and leave for Douglas direct from there. If this program is carried out it will make the delegate a guest of Doug las as the first city after his return. This Is what the committee desires as It will add to the importance ot the proposed reception.
