Mayne, who has been known In . the mining circles of this State for a 4 number of years past, returned from . ' Gold field yesterday to spend the holidays at hie home In this city. Mr. Mayne has been away Just one year and during his stay In the southern country has amassed 1 a fortune out of the product from the f Sandstorm mine at Goldfleld. He says fhat Utah Is very well represented in . f that neck of the woods, and a number of I- our well-known mining men have pros- pered In the operating of mining proper-' proper-' . ties. He is. of course, well pleased with t'l -the success that he has attained during the past year, and fels confident that he lias other properties that will bring him . a return as large as the famous lease on the Sandstorm group. The future of that country is Just beginning be-ginning to dawn uoon the outside world. - according to Mr. Mayne, and during the a next five years he thinks that the properties proper-ties opened up In that region will reveal a wealth Of precious metals that will astonish as-tonish the world. Mr.. Mayne will return , , to Nevada after spending the holidays with his family In this city, and after he has shaped his holdings so he can leave t the properties. In the hands of a capable mining man, he will make his home In this city again. I BULLFROG DISTBICT 4 HAS BRIGHT FUTURE. V Manager W. H. Clark of the Dixie and I . other properties around Bullfrog came In f from Nevada yesterday and will remain t home in this city during the holidays. Mr. Clark eays that while things have been moving along quietly in the Bull- - frog district during the development pe-ilod, pe-ilod, within a short time there will be - more heard from that region, as some of the properties have been opened up on an extensive scale and there has been an j 'mmense tonnage of rich ores blocked out " . 1 that will be sent to market. Some of the delays have been for the . reason that there have been two railroads - 3 j-romised that section, and It Is now ! I bought that within a very few months the Santa Fe line will tap the camp, while ome time during the summer there is. reason to believe that the line from Gold-field Gold-field will be extended to Bullfrog. When f these lines are completed, there will be a (vast amount of ores sent out, snd it Is expected that there will be a great many people come into the towns In the Bull-lrog Bull-lrog district. - ' j UTAH COPPER STOCKS v ON THE ADVANCE AGAIN. - ' ' A . AH predictions In regard to the prospects pros-pects of 'dullness In the eastern mar-- mar-- f- kets during the holidays have failed, (and the early morning reports received re-ceived over the private wlr of James A. Pollock & Co., show that All re-.' re-.' J cords have been broken In the list of f rtah mining securities. Boston con-I con-I solldated . took the bits at the opening of businem and was sent forward to $l'9, while United States made another sensational advance and was credited - with transactions pn a $46 basis. Other recurltles acted equally as well, and the prospects are very good for a num- ber of the copper stock located In the A Bingham district reaching $100 before the close of another year. ' A good volume of business Is being transacted, and while some of the stock showed a falling off In price at the close, the Indications are favorable for still higher prices to be attained within a few days.
