new ORE Line
FOR Deep CREEK

That the Salt Lake Route, IN CO.
operation with the International
Smelling company, will build a line to
Ely, by way of Deep Creek, over the
route that was surveyed, and a portion
of it graded, several years ago, is the
firm conviction of one of Salt Lake s
most prominent mining men--a man
who is in position to know and does
know something of what is going on
in those quarters. The international
Smelling company at this time has engi-
neers in the Deep Creek county look
ing up the tonnages of ore available
and in prospect, according to a Salt
Lake paper.
"Building of the new railroad TO
Deep Creek and Ely is the only
means by which the Cole-Ryan peo-
pie can hope to make a complete sue
cess of their new smelling plant at
Tooele, and to make it a success is
assuredly what they set out to d.
said this mining man. "That the Gil
roux ores are to be treated at the
Tooele plant is a foregoing conclusion
and in the shipping of those ores
they cannot afford to be at the mercy
of their big competitor in the smelt-
ing ield-the Guggenheims-as they
would be to ship over the Nevada
Northern.
"That Senator Clark has long had
in mind the building of the very line
Of railroad which the Cole Ryan peo-
pie need is proven by the survey hav-
Jag been made and some twenty
miles of grade having been constructed
out of Tintic Junction. If there was
excuse for contemplating the building
of such a line at the time that work
was done, there is urgent demand for
it at this time. Millions are being ex.
pended in smelter construction at
Tooele, with the ores of only one mine
Utah Consolidated-availabl for treat
ment in the plant which is approaching
completion.
The proposed lines, approximately
200 miles long, will for the most part
be one of easy grades and it will be
relatively inexpensive to build. 1t
should be able to transport ore from
Ely to Tooele at a cost of $3.50, prob
ably as low as $1.25 a ton, and leave
u margin of profit.
"The line win begin to pick up ore
within twenty miles of Tintic June.
ton, where it will branch from the
main line, and it win be tapping min
ing camps at frequent intervals all
the way to Ely. After leaving Tintic
Junction il will pass through the
north end of Dugway district; it will
cross the desert at the narrow poin.
between Granite and Gold Hill; il
will follow up Cane Springs canyon
into Deep Creek: from Deep Creek
il will run southwark to the neigh.
borhood of the Cleveland ranch, and
from thence into Ely.

The News herewith publishes that
part of the decision of the supreme
court on the so-called "wild Cat'' law,
which contains the meat of the deci-
sion.
Suit was brought to determine
whether stock issued before the passage
of the bill and presented for transfer
after the law became effective. shout

I.streasury" or "promotion" stock
upon reissue. The opinion is as fol
lows:
The act, or parts of the act, at
tempted to be vitiated by this pro-
ceeding, is a law passed by the asst
legislature for the evident purpose OF
protecting investors in mining stock
from buying promotion stock when nn-
~scrupulous mining companies and min
ing promoters advertise that the stock
so purchased will be used in the actual
development of the property. The OBJ
iect of the law is a good one, intending
as it does, to protect mining investors,
who desire to purchase mining stock,
and to apprise them of the character OF
stock they are purchasing, and to
prevent deeeitful mining promoters and
mining companies from foiting pro
motion stock upon innocent Investors
under the pretext that the money lie
rived will be used for actual develop
ment of the property.
"Treasury stock is generally un
derstood to mean in this mining
country, and the Legislature intend
ed to mean when it referred to ''treas
ury stock in said act, such stock as II
set aside for the actual development Of
the property. In other words treas

WHAT THE COURT SAID AS TO
STAMPING STOCK

of the mining company at the time ~
its issuance.
The evident intent of the lev;s.
lature, in the enactment of the Law
under discussion, was to have all
stock which is to be used for da.
velopment purposes to be marked as
"treasnry stock" and such stock a.
otherwise issued to the owners or oro.
moters of mining companies, and the
proceeds of which are not to be use1
for the purpose of actually develosins
the property to be stamped ~"promotiop
stock"
We do not believe it was intended
by the legislature, in enaeting the law
in question, that the stock issued prior
to the 18th day of April, 1909, 1.-THE
time specified in the act when this pro.
| vision was to take effect) when pre.
sented for transfer was to be marked
as either "treasury stock or "pro.
motion stock Whether the legisla.
ture would have authority to change
the status of stock issued prior to the
passage of the act, or to penalize the
action of the officers of any mimi,
corporation for an offense committed
prior to the enactment of the law, we
need not determine. AS we e~onstrue the
act in question it was never intended
to apply to stock issued prior to its
passage.
We believe it was the intention
of the legislature, as we now con
strue the law, to mean that no
stock issued prior to the time spelled
in the act for the enforcement of these
provisions, when presented to the Off.
GERS of the company for transfer need
be stamped, but may be issued the
same as it was prior to the time speei-
fed for the enforcement of the law in
question; but any mining stock issued,
sold or transferred subsequent to time
of the enforcement Of the provisions of
this act in question, such stock must be
stamped in accordance with the pro
visions of the act. as either promotion
stock or Treasury Stock" as the
stock may be.
The application for a writ Of
mandamus to compel the respond.
ents to stamp certificates of stock
issued prior to the time Of the enforce
ment of the act of March 9Th, 1908, as
either promotion stock" or ~''treas.
ury stock in view of the fact that
these certificates of stock were issued
prior to the date of enforcement of the
law in question, is denied. The writ
will issue, however, to compel the re-
spondents to stamp the certificates o.
stock, presented for stamping, issued
subsequent to the time of the enforce
ment Of the provisions of the act in
question either as promotion" 'r
treasury stock as the stock may b..

The Markets.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of tho Days Dealings in All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, Jan. 27.-The violent contor-
tions in the price movements of stocks
which have been the characteristic of the
weeks market had another illustration to-
day Yesterdays sudden recovery was
wiped out for the most part and prices
of some of the principal leading stocks
were established at lower records that
in the decentralization of Tuesday. The
only news cited to account for the heavy
selling was the French disaster by flood.
French bankers estimates of the mini
mum losses according to cabled reports
were placed at $l0O0O0,000 while the gov
eminent official estimate was reported as
high as $2OO, 600 These figures do not
offer adequate explanation for any great
dislocation of economic and financial
agencies. The rate of international eX-
changes on Paris showed no sign of dis
turbance, sterling exchange at Paris
holding at yesterdays price The same
was true of the Paris cheque in New
York
Some of the days selling of stocks in
New York was reported to be for foreign
accounts but there was nothing to show
that these sales were in unusual proper
ton to the whole.
The more general opinion of the forces
at work in the days stock market was of
an organized bear party which took ad-
vantage of the dying down of demand at
yesterdays recovered prices to put out
fresh short lines and to offer prices down

position was apparent to these operations,
the market suffering from the entire alb
sence apparently of any supporting meas
ures. There was a great congestion of
activity in the most highly speculative
stocks in the list all of them, however,
of properties of first Importance. The
Hartman Pacfics We're the especial tar
get of attack and it met with no manifest
opposition. Rumors of the hostile inten-
lions of the government authorities
toward those companies were circulated
in connection with the weakness, in
strong contrast with the reports of a
compromise of the government suit which
were circulation short time ago.
Amongst the industrials United States
Steel maintained it's usual eminence and
Colorado Fuel was handled with especial
severity The coppers got no benefit from
the steps towards merger which is eX-
pected to result in improved control of
the output and marketing of that metal.
Pennsylvania offered notable resistance
to the days weakness and was prominent
in the recovery The approach Of the
dividend period had an effect on the stock.
The closing tone was a good deal unset
tied, notwithstanding the nervousness
manifested by uncovered shorts. 1t was
their buying to cover which made the oc-
cassional rallies in the market.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $685., 600 United States bonds were
unchanged on call2e.r
