Show INTER-MOUNTAI- ORB AND BULLION. The Interruption of ore traffic incident to the melting of the snows, which makes the roads impassable, is now being felt by the smelters, and the diminished supply is causing them some embarrassment. It is not likely, however, that any stacks will be blown out, although operations will be somewhat diminished. The present scarcity extends to all classes of ores except the pyrites of Bingham, of which there is The smelters have adan vanced their charges on these ores to a point at which there is little left for Just at the present the mine-owne- r. time there is a greater scarcity of siliceous than of lead ores. The ore receipts of the past week were of the value of $126,000, against $104,407 the previous week. The base bullion output of the smelters was $85,678. Ontario bullion to the value of $18,914; Daly, $8741; cyanides, $2760, and miscellaneous lots, $4450, were also shipped, making the total bullion output $120,543, against $115,862 the previous week. The base bullion output of the Salt Lake smelters was as follows: Pennsylvania, $27,053; Germania, $28,000; Hanauer, $16,925; Hanauer matte, over-suppl- y.

Between 15,000,000 and 20,000,000 ounces of silver have been gathered and stored there, and nobody knows for whose account or what final purpose.

Attorney-at-La- w, Salt Right to Proceed for Patent of Mining Claim. Cancellation of Land Office Receipt A letter of the Secretary of the Interior to the Commissioner of the General Land Office saying: Your judgment from which an appeal has been taken is affirmed, is a judgment of cancellation of an application for a patent to mining lands. Decisions of the Register and Receiver of the Land Office, made on a protest against issuance of patent to plaintiff, cancelling the receipt for fraud in obtaining it, are admissible in evidence, in an action to determine the right to proceed for a patent. Such decisions, as well as decisions of the Commissioner, cannot be objected to on the ground that they are not decisions absolutely cancelling the entry, but simply recommending its cancellation, and that they are subject to the right of 43further appeal.
