LOSDON TAKING NEW HOLD Btock Exchange Likely to Resnme Bris Operations Boen. PACIFICS SCARE HARD TO GET OVER Deapite New York's Reassuring Quota- tions Past Week with London Dulls and Bears Has Deen Dull, LONDON, June 2.—All indications point to a rational resumption of business on the London Stock exchange in the near future. There 18 no reakon why this should have been delayed as long as it has, ex- cept that London recovers slowly, and there- fore the offect of the recent panic has been a week during which rransactions have been dicidedly dull New York has continued sending higher prices and these were marked up here in a perfunctory fashion, but actual busi- ness haw been small. Leading crities now point out that the material prospects of the United States which caused the re- cent advance in stocks are as good as ever and that the “community of Interest” campaign, which is essential to the de- velopment of the American rallway sys- tem Is certain to cause higher prices. London's Northern Pacific settlement is now practically complete and money Is easy. Home rails are dull and American rocurities offer the most attractive fleld for operation. The depression in home rails 18 due to unfavorable trafic reports, the | recent holiday period not bringing the trafic Improvement expected. There |Is considerable foreboding as to home rail dividends at the end of the year. The decided case in money was due to immense government disbursements and there are confident predictions of an early reduction in the bank rate. The govern- ment, however, owing to the large amounts of forelgn money which might be with- drawn If money s oversharpened, Is cau- tlous. It 1% expected that some large holders of consols have been unloading. Recent news from South Africa and the slow, smoulder- ing war embers apparent lu that country, check any material advance in these curities Rand mines, on the contrary, have ad- vanced and Argentines are looking up on the prospective unification of the national debt. The message of President Roca of the Argentine Republic has been very favorably received It s reported that Berlin is Investing In Chinese bonds, owing to the clearing of the political atmosphere in the Orlent. HIGHER LEVEL OF PRICES w Street Looks for a Return this Week of Recent Specn tive Activity, NEW YORK, June 2.—Henry Clews, head of the banking house of Henry Clews & have had another weoek of reactionary movement on the Stock exchange; no more #0, however, than might be expected from the extraordinary activity that preceded it. At one stage of the boom the weokly transactions ged at fuily 15,000,000 shares 3 senting a money valuatfon " 000,000. ~ For the last week the sales have aggregated at the rate of about 1,760,000 shares for an unbroken week, This shows a_decline of % per cent in the valume of shares exchanged, compnring the present with the recent maximum of transactions. Tho current weekly sales of 3,750,000 largely above the shares are, however, average of recent vears, the range for 1900 having heen 460,000 Shares per week: 1900, 3,360,000 shares, and for 1808, 2,160,000 shares, which shows {hat the currént weekly busi- 043,000 shares (or nearly 40 per han the average weekly snles '8 1900, 1890 and 1598. It is thus evident that, great as has been the reaction of the last three weeks, yot it is far from having exhausted the vitality and specula- tive resource of the market. The staying qualities of the sltuation are strikingly evident from the comparative stabllity of prices. There fs still rome realizing on speculative accounts and not a few conservative operators prefer to satisfy themselves as to the real strength of the market by postponing buying for a time, but selling readily brings out uying with a promptness which shows that the under element of confidence 1s Very strong.

D., surveying a site for a be erected at Sheridan, seven miles east of Hill City, in Penmington county. The Bliue Lead copper mine is une of the oldest copper propositions in the Black Hills, hav- ing been open for nearly a quarter of a century. The outcropping of copper ore on the surface of the ledge is enormous and the rock carries an average of 7 per cent copper. The company has stripped the ledge for a long distance and shafts have been sunk at intervals, which have demonstrated that the ore fs good to a depth of fifty to seventy-five feet. At those depths an ash bed occurs which fs barren of copper value. The theory is that the copper has simply feached out. A tunnel s being run at the present time near the water level in the expectation of striking the main ledge of copper ore beneath the ash deposit. There yet remuins but a short distance till the tunnel 18 completed There are thousands of tons of good eop- per ore blocked out above the ash bed and the smelter will be erected whether the ledge 1s encountered below or not. The ledge will average twenty feet In width where it has been opencd by the shafts. R. M. Maloney of this city organized the company The rock through which the tunnel has been excavated has been so hard that only a foot a day has been bored with double shifts, using air drills. This tunnel alll be about 1,500 feet long when completed, and should the ledge of ore be encountered again one of the greatest cop- per mines that the world has ever known will be the result. The property has been examined by a great many of the best copper experts of the country and their reports have invariably been In favor of the proposition Makes a Mine of Gold. Similar conditions on the surface aro found in the copper district west of Roche ford five miles, where several Michigan companies are operating extensively. The Black Hills Copper company of Benton Harbor, Mich., has made a mine of copper and gold ore within the last few months. An Incline shaft has been put down on a ledge of ore 500 feet and values suficiently large to pay have been found. The shaft will now be sunk to the 1,000-foot level It Is stated that the company Is already planning to put in a smelter thls season The ledge of ore outcropped at the surface similar to that of the blue lead mine. This city will recelve an increase in busi- ness as soon as the rallroads are completed Into the Galena, Strawberry and Two Bit districts. The decision of the National Mining company to erect a smelter this season started both of the rallway com- panies that enter the Hills to building nar- row-gauge roads into those districts east of this city. It is estimated that when all of the old mines are started up in these camps that 400 to 600 tons of ore will be mined and shipped dally. Deadwood will be the natural supply point for the dis- tricts. About 100 tons of ore will be mined dally from the Bulliom mine, which is now owned by the Natlonal company. The Oro Fine mine will likely be started up again, as well a3 the Dakota Maid and Gilt Edge mines. The Hardin companies wlll take advantage of raflroad facilities and ship- ments will be made again to the Deadwood smelter. The probabllity is that the Hardins will erect a large smelter of thelr own this summer on Redwater. The Belt Development company of Colo- rado Springs, will put in pumps at the shaft on the Homestake beit. Water has becomo troublesome lately. A shipment of machin- ery is to be made thls week from Denver. New Hotsting Plant. A complete holsting plant, with pumps, has been brought by the University company from Denver, and the plant will be in- stalled at the Yerxa mine, on Spring croek. A new shaft has been started a short dis- tance from the ore shoot, which dips to the east. The company has let a contract for 50,000 feet of lumber, to be sawed at the mine. The ore runs from $7 to $66 per ton gold, belng a free-milling proposition. The company has acquired six mining claims on the north fork of Lightning ereek, west of Custer, which will be added to the other propertles of tho company. There is a four-foot ledge of free-milling ore on this ground that averages at the surface about $6 per ton gold. This group of claims will be developed this summer. As soon the new hofst is in the force of men will be doubled.

Baily, president of the Na tional Temperance Soclety of Friends, de- | clared before a large audience in Philadel- phia the other evening that “If there is any one feature of the drinking custom which at this time {8 occaston for alarm it is the ap- palling increase of inebriety among women."" “I was told a few days since by a pupll of one of our most fashionable young ladfes’ seminaries,” continued Mr. Baily, “that their principal, in counseling them to avold extremes, declared that it was just as vul- BAr to be a total abstainer as it was to drink to excess; that one was indication of a weak character just as much as the other, What must be expected as the results of such tuition, when these young girls enter soclety and become members of the fash- fonable set? “Intemperance among fashionable women, as I have learned from some of their own class, s much more observable, even in Philadelphia, than it was some years ago. In New York a noclal leader, who refused to allow her name to be used because of her family connections and her personal rela- tions to the ‘400, says that the drink!ng reached an alarming state, “It 18 nothing unusual, she declared, to see in leading hotels and cafes beautiful und handsomely dressed women of Fifth avenue absolutely pouring down cocktalls and other mixed drinks.

Dr. Haywood Smith, a noted English specialist, furnishes facts and filgures to prove that British women are drifting toward inebriety. He asserts that the vice Is increasing with greater rapidity among the rich and well-to-do women than among those of the lower strata of soclety. He adds: ‘In this so-called upper class drunkenness is epldemic.’ “I have long belleved, and each year strengthens my conviction, that the drinking customs of soclety stand more than any other impediment in the way of all moral, soclal, industrial and religious progress.’ A MOUSB DID IT. Clever Ruse Exposed a Womn tending Blindness. A leading ocullst of Montreal, whose practice extends far outside the boundaries of the city, relates that one day a young woman came into his office accompanied by an older woman, apparently the mother The young woman wore colored glasses, which one might have assumed to be super- fluous, as It was claimed that the girl was totally blind. What was wanted of tho doctor was a certificate authenticating thiy claim of bl'ndness, putting it beyond di pute, and it was frankly stated that the object in seeking this was to obtain cer- tain alds and advantages of a philanthropic nature, impossible of access otherwise. The standing of the oculist was such that a statement from him would carry full welght wherever presented. On examination the surface of the eyes gave no Indication of any defect, but that might be 80 and blindness still exist. Ap- plying tests of the strongest light, the girl professed herselt to be absolutely unable to distinguish between light and darkness. Other tests were resorted to, trying in their nature, and some of them very painful, and these were all borne with patience and courage. The doctor was puzzled and bafed. Apparently the girl was stone blind, but he was unable to solve the problem of those eyes, to discover the cause of that blindness or say just where the defect lay. The doctor was more than half disposed to grant the desired certificate, when, as a last expedient, he hit upon a novel exper- ment. He dismissed his patient with in- structions that she should come again i a certain hour the following day and this gave the ocullst time to arrange for the carrying out of his plan. When the girl came the next day the doctor had her securely blindfolded with a heavy bandage over her eyes. He then took a tiny mouse which he had procured and held the lively Mttle thing by Its tall betore the girl's face, though not touching her, while he ordered the bandage to be removed. No sooner was the bandage off than her screams rang through the place and her oyes were wide with terror at the harmless little rodent which had thrown her so completely off her guard and exposed the imposture. Of course she saw it or she would not have screamed. Needless to say the applicant did not get that certificate, Pre- evil among women of the highest circles has | SALVATIONISTS MAY UNITE Prospect of Velunteers of Amerion Jeining the Older Organizatien BOOTHS, FATHER AND SON, TO EMBRACL OMeer of the Army Suys Secret Ne- kotiations Are Now in Progress Looking to Reconcill stranged.
