LOST CABIN.
crosscut Goes Forward After Much
Annoying Delay.


Clarence Landes was In the city
this week on his way from Murray TO
his home at Plummer. Speaking OF
the Lost Cabin Mining company, In
which he is heavily interested, he
said the company had experienced
considerable delay In getting a drill
adapted to the work In hand. but had
finally been successful and that work
In the crosscut is now going forward
very satisfactorily. 1t is estimated
that about $50 feet must be run to cut
the vein which will be at point about
200 feet below tunnel No. /. In the
upper tunnel an ore shoot has been
developed for a distance of 20 feet and
the face is stll in ore. This tunnel
was run to prospect the vein, the max
imum depth gained being only 68 feet
from the surface. The width of the
shoot ranges from one to three feet,
with an average of 20 per cent zinc
and Z per cent lead. The property is
located on Bear creek, above Murray,
three miles from the railroad and Is
reached by good wagon roan. The
company has gasoline compressor
well equipped for development, and an
abundance of supplies for several
months.

Lead Vein, Also,

The best showing on the Wilson has
been developed on a parallel vein up
on which lead ore of shipping grade
was found many years ago at time
when prices and other conditions were
not so favorable for profits. 1t is
stated that the showing was so good
that the then manager of the Federal
company made cash offer for the
property of $4,000 The tunnel in
which this lead showing was made
has now caved in due to the forest
fire Of several years ago burning the
tmbers. The leasers will give their
attention the copper lead until the
snow subsidies, when they will start
another crosscut that will tap the lead
vein at an additional depth of 200 feet,
where they have every reason to ex-
poet shipping ore, Owing to the large
amount of preliminary work before
there is a chance to ship ore, the COM
pany has accepted very low royalty
of 10 per cent. The lease runs for
two and a half years, The wagon
road to the Richmond and st. Lawr-

iies the matter of getting the ore TO

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The New
Y orR>Evening Sun financial review to-
day said:
From an opening that held consider
able promise of both animation and
strength, today's stock market re,
lapsed after the first half hour, into a
state of stagnation that resembled in
all respects the sluggish sessions OF
last week. Although some OF the
early buying activity was attributed
to certain large interests, 1t is prob
able that the brief upward movement
was mainly due to the covering opera
lions Of the shorts. Such as 1t was,
the movement failed to attract outside
participation. Considerable strength
was displayed in The munitions group
in the afternoon following announce
ment from Washington that the navy
department had been successful In
making arrangements with companies
on this side to take over the Hadfield
contract for six and eight inch shells.
This movement was not sustained.

tently active in the late trading. Unit
