HAS MADE
A GOOD ADVANCE
Effects of Curtailrnent of the
Output Are Already Felt
by Market.

When spelter several months ago be-
gan slumpng badly from the record high
point it enjoyed for a time, it was
thought that the enforced curtailment OF
production throughout the country in
time would revive the market, SO while
a number az Utah zinc producers reluc-
tantly closed their properties, a number
felt that ii could not be for long. For
a short time past shelter has showed a
material Improvement marketwise, due
TO the lack Of enough ore at q number
OF the middle western reduction plants
There are only limited, stocks in the
United States, but according to the l3ngl

In regard TO the effect OF tariff tinkering
That both the buyer and seller OF spell

an advantage is evident from the spread
on yesterday between the bid and asking
prices. There, was bid S5.27E and $40
was asked. whereas the spread OF late
has not been much over cents per hun

ties anticipate an Improvement IN the
market or, at least, that they recognize
that there is q chance for still better
ranges, and this cannot but be Of interest
and encoura cement to the many Utah
producers and their hundreds OF share

DIVIDEND OF IRON
BLOSSOM DECLARED
Ten Cents a Share Is Posted
by Directors for the Pres

The directors OF the Iron Blossom COM
pany at their meeting Thursday in Provo
decided to enliyen these dull mining times
by declaring the regular quarterly divi-
dend of 10 cents a share. This calls for
100000, and will be received by stock
holders on July %, the books closing on
July is. With this payment the company
Will have checked out s1.6I0.000 in divi-
dends, or $i67 per share, and while no
statement was made yesterday for publ
cation in regard 10 the cash In bank It Is
thought that nsiderably over twice the
amount of this disbursement Will be left
In the treasury for the future. Earnings
are well In excess OF the present dividend
OF the company not to crowd production,
but to await the completion OF the Knight
custom mill for the treatment of a con-
siderable low-grade ore tonnage in the
mine
Some encoura cling word came out from
Provo yesterday in regard to the old Colo
rado property. The Colorado Is trying
with comm endable effort to revive its
prestige by virtue of new ore develop
incnts on the 300-foot level. The manage
ment, 1t was stated yesterday, is increas
ing the extent of the tonnage continually,
while the grade holds UP splendidly, There
are great many who Will be benefited
by this improv at the Colorado,
while the effect of extensive new orc ton
nageS in this mine Will be most beneh-
cial TO the local mining share market.

the milling plant OF 1875 tons daily ca
pacity may be operated to the limit OF
its resources.
The long tunnel being driven from the
base OF the mountain on the west side Of
the mine, which the survey indicates
should tap the main vein a mile in and
at a vertical depth OF 1000 feet, is pro-
gressing rapidly, and II is believed Will
have reached the body by the first
of next year. The bore is now in $500
feet. and one Shift advanced the face
$50 feet last month. Another shift will
be added when the power is connected.
The shaft being sunk is now down 600
feet, and the Showings are better than
anticipated at this depth, several string
ers Of high-grade ore having been en-
countered at unexpected places A drift
500 feet long has been driven on the
highest grade ore ever encountered in
the property. Shipments at present av-
erage twentv-siX tons of crude ore and
