Show FRENZIED FINANCE never before in the history of the local stock exchange has there been such avast a vast amount of trading and such scenes ot excitement the market has been boiling and the brokers and investing public seem to have suddenly become stock crazy the week ending june ath was a record breaker for the exchange 0 and the volume of busness transacted more than doubled that of any previous week that two stocks could stir up such a commotion is hardly credible and that rumors from two mere prospects could make such a change is unusual to say the least but such has been the case with sioux con and iron blossom during 0 the past few weeks both helve have bee been merely prospects and until recently neither had any amount of ore why the binding finding of ore in such properties should so excite the public and cause such flighty advance in stock prices is hard to see surely one body of ore does not make a mine without being fully developed and those who have paid mine prices for these stocks are likely to lose out not that these properties may not develop into large and productive mines in fact there is an excellent chance that such will be the case however a valuation of on a prospective mine is rather high and it will take an enormous amount of ore to justify such a price A great deal of criticism has been expressed for the manager management rient of the sioux con the reports that ore had been en countered were persistently denied by those in charge and the public kept in ignorance of the real facts if this was so then thi the s management should surely be censured dg as the investing public is entitled to know the truth there are always two sides to ever every question however and there may be n no cause for the severe criticism expressed when the first flurry is over the stocks s toc will probably drop back in the list where aher they belong advancing more mora slowly as the cheif developments merit and there will edly be many poorer but wiser men |
