Show BETTER STOCK MARKET. Inquiry Is Active, New York Still Low, Silver Shield Advances. Conditions in the local mining share j market woro considerably better than on the opening day of tho week. There was a strong Inquiry among Investors for somo of tho stocks, nnd tho brokers old not havo It all their own way. Tho total transactions of tho day amounted to a good llgure. and thero was scarcely any noticeable bear movement, except, per- hups, In Now York nnd In Wabash. Near- j ly ail other stocks showed an Improvement Improve-ment and In most of them there was evidence evi-dence of Investors' selection, even In cases where only current pi Ices maintained, main-tained, whllo on one or two lines there wero advances, due to improved conditions condi-tions at the properties; facts that had come to tho knowledgo of tho Inventing public simultaneously, If not In advance of the brokers Altogether the tono was better than for the past two weeks, and reflected a decided de-cided reaction as compared with Monday 3 business. Daly-Judge let out somo few shares at prices lower than during last week, out thero was no frenzied offering o. the shares, and tho transactions looked rnoic Uko somo ono realizing than as an Index In-dex of the feeling. May Day, In tho sales, had a range of 2 cents per share In tho forenoon's transactions, and though It was offered lato In the day for less tnun the morning selling price. th stock closed in gO;d Jorm. ancf there was no slj;n of liquidating. Tho fact that this properly is periodically sending carlbad lots of crudo oro to the market and that It has reserves In sight Is causing considerable speculation as to why tho shares remain so low. During the day the dealing embraced pretty much tho whole line of actlvo stocks, Now York doing business at nbout Monday's figures, Llttlo Chief being Ij) demand and Mammoth .selling at somewhat some-what lower figures, with Wabash lower and Tetro on the upgrade. The feature of the day. however, was Sliver Shield. On Monday an assessment of 114 cents per share was levied against this stock, and on that dav It closed with tho stock In sight at S cents and no bId-3 for It at that figure. It was stronger on the opening open-ing yesterday, and In the afternoon was eagerly In demand at 12V cents with the stock held out of reach of that figure and after sales had been made up to 12 S-S ceuts.
