j. a. Minnear q Co. say today:
Superior q Boston monopolized the
attention I'm the copper share list to-
day, and scored an advance of over 8
points from Saturdays close. The rise
was due to the announcement that ore
had been encountered at the Gardner
shaft. We are i'm receipt of telegram
just before the close today. to the eff
feet that the ore body is assuming
considerable size and assays made
showed 81 per cent copper. This is
the most important development at
the property in two years and we be-
lieve it will result in higher prices for
stock. 1t sold as high as 1917 with
heavy buying. Superior & Globe
should reach an ore body showing good
commercial values at any time, as the
conditions at the. property are very
similar to those at the Gardner shaft

siderable demand, offerings at SIS find

NEVADA CONSOLIDATED.

An Ely, Nevada, despatch to
Thompson. Towle and Co. says: In
spite of February being a short month
and numerous difficulties attendant
upon frozen ore, the Steptoe plant
turned out during the month of Feb
ruary about 100000 pounds of cop
per. Receipts of ore from Copper Flat
are running about 100 to lao cars
daily. Three reverberatory furnaces
are running and the fourth is being
refined and will probably be fired up In
a few days. Construction work on
the fifth furnace was suspended last
fall when the furnace was more than
half completed. 1t is expected that
this furnace will be completed this
spring. Photographs taken recently
in the pit at Copper Flat show that the
frost line extended down into the
ore six or seven feet in many places.
ore frozen in this way had to be
hand drilled and then dislodged with
charges of dynamite. The steam SHOW
els were moved this week into new
territory made available by the gain
in stripping operations. Some delay
was caused i'm ore shipments by the
changing of location of the snoVels,
but the pit is now in fine shape, and
can supply all the ore the concentrG-
tor can use"

state.
The Oakland, Cal, board of pub
lie works has let a contract for the
