PIONEER TIPTOP SILVER
 MINES ARE SOLD
(From Sundays dailY.)

Returning yesterday from Tiptop district, J. K. Mulkey, mining oper' ator. made announcement that he had closed the deal for two of the oldest mining locations in that field, the Sil' yer Museum and the Jack Swilling properties. which include three orig inal locations.
 This combined deal was for heavy consideration and on a tungsten basis but the terms were private. While Mir. Mulkey states he was a principal ill this transaction with him as al as sociate is one of the largest manu featuring firms in the East, that make a speciality of handling this rare min- eral in vast quantities.
 The early history of the Silver Museum shows total production oi silver from a l50foot shaft of over Si50.0O0 while the Swilling mine also was dividend payer, both suspend ing when silver slumped. As wa; characteristic of mining in that field in early days, wolframite went over the waste dump, classed as black jack" and had no valuation whatever its b;-metal bearing properties being unknown and without any market de mand. Mir. Mulkey conducted an ex lhaustive sampling of the two old dumps as well as mine workings al both points. Revelations were giver of an astounding nature insofar a: tungsten ore bodies were found 1T place, and which prevailed from the surface to the deepest workings.
 "We will establish a camp" he said. just as soon as weather condi tions permit, a reduction plant vii be erected, and production will begi- at an early period, in which there i; every reason to anticipate success ful undertaking. The Tiptop country Is nothing more nor less than mael strom of tungsten ready to boil over it is in short a wonderful region, o incalculable resources"

Special Correspondence.
 KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS. Jan. Y. - Cattle sold stronger last week. beef grades 15 to 30 higher, and stockers and feeders 10 to 25 higher. Receipts were very light after Tues day. storms interfering with railroad service. Receipts today are 13OOO head, and there is a good market, Beef steers are selling steady, with no very toppy steers here, sales around S8.25, being the best. and most of the steers at S7.50 to SS. Prime steers are getting into a class by themselves. and would bring S9 to S9. 30. Butcher cattle are gaining strength more rapidly than steers. An order buyer wired an Eastern killer this morning that he could buy good heavy COWS around S6.5O. ani received instructions to buy, but found 1t took S6.50 to S6.75 to get them, ex- tra good ones worth &. Veal calves are selling up to SlO.5O, and heavy bulls to S650. Arrivals from Iowa and Minnesota were small today, zero weather acting against loading there. stock steers selling at S6.5O to SIPS. and butcher cows and heifers S550 to S6.75. Stockers and feeders sold quickly today, as few were left in the yards last week. and buyers got out early. Prices on them were 10 to 25 higher. A train of choice Colo rado yearlings and twos sold at S6.Io to %55. Colorado feeders brought S7.l5 to $.30. Three lots of Colo rado yearlings sold at S7.65. from Olathe, Lamar and Delta. respective ly. A load of l.202-pound fed steers from Hugo. brought SS and Colorado COWS sold at SC to S6.6O. heifers S7.25 bulls S5.60. The Panhandle country had practically nothing nere today, because of bad weather for loading.
 Hogs sold to 10 higher, receipts 12OO0 head. Chicago had heavy run, and market reported steady. bur competition soon put prices up , to lO cents here, top S.20. bulk $oS5 tc S7.l5. The feeling prevails that heavy liquidation has run its course, and stronger prices are expected. Outle' for fresh pork and pork product Is wide open. and packers cannot con ceal their desire for hogs. and thc market is crceping upwards steadily
 Sheep and lambs sold steady. after signs of weakness at the opening, re ceipts 15OO0 head. Pea-fed lambs brought $1060. top ewes s. Some medium wetners brought S7. and year lings $S.75. The common price last week for good feeding lambs. 54 to co pounds. was S9.l5. 10 doubles sell ing at that price. Dealers, expect 2 temporary break in prices, especially if Northern Colorado loads freely, al though that is the only region cap able of furnishing enough of supply to create an impression.

RICH CINNABAR ORE
 FROM OLD LOCATION
(From Sundays Daily)

Samples of cinnabar ore brought to the city yesterday by Richard NcNary from the Copper Basin field, attract ed very much interest among mining men conversant with this mineral, from the unusually high grade values carried in quicksilver, tests giving as high as 10 per cent.
 The product was taken from an oli shaft originally sunk by the father of McNary over thirty years ago, at a depth recently given of 80 feet, where the ore body is strong and shows val ues increasing as sinking goes ahead. Present market quotations give this ore value of S4OO per ton, with a heavy demand as prevailing in all markets.
 This field was recently revived by John Ross, w. L. Roberts, R. C. Me Nary, Matthew Hall and others, and seven continuous locations were made o1 the dyke that cuts through the formation, the mincralized area run ming from 20 feet to 50 feet in width. In relocating this deposit, the owners performed annual assessment work. as well was exploration given at diff ferent points, all openings carrying values in mercury that reached to the high average in shallow workings ot 212 per cent.
 MT. Ross in speaking yesterday of the new strike. stated all the proposi' ton requires is thorough cinnabar operator to take charge, as the ton mage is unlimited. and the percentage of values is far ahead of any other field known il the world. It Is quite probable this Summer will see plan of activity crystalized by which oper- ators familiar with this phase of min ing, will be on the ground.
