Aseirtant Secretary Mountenay posted the usual Daly West dividend of 40 cents a share, or $72,000, in the absence of a majority of the board of directors, on Saturday.

MUTING N-OTFS. . . : x The Ohio Copper company shipped about 450 tons of concentrates and 200 tons of crude ore in October. John A. Kirby has left the city on mining mi-ning business. There is a' big gold excitement reported at Masonic mountain, near the Nevada-California Nevada-California line. It is reported from Boston thst the Utah Consolidated will distribute $000,000 among its shareholders in December. George I Moates of the Latham has returned re-turned from Denver accompanied by Fred Fllndt. R. W. Brady of the Ploche Nevada Consolidated Con-solidated has returned from a trip te the coast. . Manager Cllve of the Oasis" is up from the south for election day. The Bryan group at Atla has been bonded bond-ed by Messrs. Chambers and Craig. Dick Colboura has organized the Maria Mining company, whose property lies next to the Great Bend at Goldneld. , Forty-nine carloads of ore were shipped from the Eagle & Blue Bell during, the past month. Work has been resumed on the Wild Blir of Beater county. The week c " on a fairly small -"S'b bu; 3 and the market :1 a marked depression, due prob-: prob-: '.y to rre-eloctlon influences. Prices ! ' owed a dec! Jed downward tendency in I'.'.ost Instances and the showing was by r.o rnear.s satisfactory. : Caxlsa was strong at the usual price of 11U cents, but there was litttle demand de-mand for it, the stock being held at 14 cents at the clae. Star Consolidated fell off slightly, selling at 15 cents and i-lifing after torpid trading at U cents Mi and 15 cents asked. Victoria, which has been dormant for some days, wakened lojig enough to sell a nice 1 lock at $2, which apparently satisfied the demand. Butler-Liberal was strong and moved up to 11 Vi cents, but closed ' elig-htly lower. The bi? slump of the day was in New Tork. That stock opened weak and got .weaker rapidly, selling down with a toboggan-like rush from 15?4 to 13M: cents. It looks as if the boost which the strike has given the stock has petered out, and that it would go still lower. - Lower Mammoth did a small amount of business between 13 and 14 cents, and closed with the demand satisfied at 15 cents asked and 10 cents bid. May Day failed to. excite as much attention as usual and was weak, selling off to 31 Vi cents, although a block for future delivery deliv-ery Bold a trifle higher. Sliver Shield was one of the' exceptions and" was strong at 114 cents, although the trading trad-ing was light. Uncle Sam Consolidated fell off a trifle below 25 cents, but little etock came out at the prevailing figures. The closing quotations foliar-: Bid. As'-d.

FINE STRIKE MADE IN THE CARISA, MINE The good news stil Icontinues to pour In from the Carisa. Not only has Man. ager Harry Joseph put the property In such shape that It Is shipping at least forty tons a day to the smelter, but a. magnificent strike has Just been uncov- ered in the property. While working on the big stope from which the low-grade -ore is coming the mlne.rs broke through the wall of the ctope and uncovered a body of very high-grade copper ore. This body was at once investigated and was found to be eight feet in- width. It has also been followed for some distance on the strike of the vein, but it has not as yet been determined how far it extends in a lateral lat-eral direction. The average of this new ore body across the eight feet shows values of at least 30 per cent copper, $7 gold and some silver per ton. This strike is of Inestimable benefit to teh Carisa, and will put a fine, large chunk of money in the company's stocking. stock-ing. ' It will, of course, be put on the market as soon as arrangements for treatment charges have been made with the smelter. I GOOD PBOOBESS MADE BY CONTINEHTAL-ALTA. Henry M. Crowther, manager of the Contlnental-Alta, returned Sunday night from a visit to the property, and reports that ""the finest kind of progress has been made on the various enterprises enter-prises of the.company. The entire line of the tramway from the mine to Tanner's Tan-ner's flat where the mill is located, has been cleared of the underbrush, and the grading has been done for about half the towers. The timber for the towers is on the ground, and enough for about half the towers has been dropped at eacn station, ine lowers win now ue-gin ue-gin to rise and the crew are w-orking fast in order to complete the Job before snow flies. The work in the mill itself hae now got to such a point that the weather cannot interfere with it and the mill will undoubtedly be ready by the time the tramway and pipe line can 6upply ore and power. Mr. Crowther also visited the Columbus Colum-bus Con. mill and reports that while the plant ic not running steadily as yet. they are turning out some very fine concentrates con-centrates and that by the time the How. land tunnel is connected will be running full blast. It is understood that the Columbus Co-lumbus will put on two Dhlfts In the mill at once. ' BEGIN DEVELOPMENT WORK. Advices from Manager Doubleday from San Francisco state that he has engaged a superintendent for the Pennsylvania Penn-sylvania Goldfleld company of Goldfield and that a crew of men will b "' to work at once doing systematic development develop-ment work on the properly. Tut o. a which has already been done on the property has shown astonishing results, but it has nearly all been purface work and has been done for the purpose of establishing the best point at which to continue operations at depth. Now that that has been established the ground will be explored at depth, and it is practically prac-tically certain that a mine will be made of the property. MAJESTIC SMELTER. MAT STABT. The report comes from Mllford that the Majestic smelter will be fired up in the near future, probably about the 1st of January. It is to be hoped that this is not the case. The Majestic company has had one experience with starting the smelter before it had enough ore with which to feed It for any length of ! time, and the results nearly put the company out of business. It is true that under Superintendent Freudenthal there |
