MINING STOCK REVIEW There was a strong advance along the line in the stock market, and, while the volume of the transactions is still ridiculously low, there were better efforts made so trade.

Dalton & Lark is not in demand to any marked extent. The holders of East Golden Gate put their price up at the dose, although it was an offering during the "eek at 3 cents. The closing bid was i cent a share. Four Aces sold at 19 cents and was held at 30 at the dose. The mine is reported as improving as work progresses and the stock gives promise of becoming a meeting Daly-We- st favorite. Galena was wanted at 51.40, with 51.70 asked.

The New York quotations on the same day were $10, while the stock is held here at 514.50. Silver King is in good demand, but none of the stock is offered, and bids away ahead of last weeks fail to bring out the stock. Sunshine is nearly out of the hands of the bears and was favored with bids of $1.60, and an advance to $2.95 was made. by the holders. Utah sold high and is in good demand. A dividend of 2 cents per share is payable October 10. d Of the stocks, Swansea and its neighbor, South Swansea, were the favorites. If these two stocks could be induced to change places with some of a tew listed ..stocks, the appearance of the board would be improved by the transfer. Swansea is quoted at a figure that puts the valuation of the property at more than $200,000, and its present rata of dividends, $5,000 per month, is 30 per cent, per annum on that valuation. South Swansea w'ent up 25 cents in the bid, but is not to be had under $1.05. The mine is shipping ore and is ranging itself with the other valuable producers cf Silver City. Since the Dalton assessment of 1 cent fell due, the stock has been in better demand, and was favored with higher bids. About 60,000 shares are still delinquent, but the sale does not take place till October 17, and the delinquency will be materially reduced by that time. An assessment of 2 cents per share has been levied on Natural Gas, payable October 31, and, as a consequence, the stock is offered at cents. d stocks closed as follows: The non-liste- non-liste- ORE AND BULLION. The Pennsylvania smelter is still turning out bullion and from all appearances will be doing so a month hence. The smelter is also buying ores but the management states that the purchases were made necessary in order to mix with the ores now on hand. There is a growing belief, however, that the owners have reconsidered the question of closing down, and have concluded to continue in the business of buying and smelting ores. The present stock of ores cannot be exhausted before election day and the result may enter into the company's calculations in shaping its future policy. The base bullion output of the valley smelters was slightty lower, although Penuiylvania shows an increase of about $10,033. The decrease is on Germania which produced nearly $29,033 less. Cyanides and fine bullion cut an important figure in the weeks receipts, amounting to over $25,030. Ore receipts were good and almost equalled last week's figures, but the immediate future gives indications of a falling off, as many mines, and in some cases entire districts, have suspended shipments during the continuance of the low price of the metals. The base bullion output of the smelters was valued at $75,450, divided as follows: Pennsylvania, $25,75; Hanauer, $20,525; Germania, $29,550. The ore purchases reported were: McCor-nic- k & Co., $34,5 50; T. R. Jones & Co., $44,-80Bamberger & McMillan, $24,734; Commercial National Bank, 20,500; National Bank of the Rebublic, $5,000. Total, $129,-58a decrease of $1,046.
