TURNING ATTENTION TO TIN PROPERTIES 1 Activity in the Keystone Distr Parties Take the Bullion Group. DEADWOOD, 8. D., March 8.-—(Special.) —L. R. Bhrich of Colorado Springs, accom- panled by a number of the stockholders of the Belt Development company, operaling on the “Homeetake” vein to the south of Lead, arrived in the eity last Thursday and, it s stated, will complete the arrange- ments already made for developing the ground whicl, the company is now holding | on un option. The option on this ground expired on the first of the present month but the company succeedc in getting ap extension on it. Operations In the work- ings on the ground were suspended for a few' days, but were resumed again on last Wednesday, and will be continued with much larger force than formerly. The company has already placed a great deal of money in the ground in the shape of de- velopment, having sunk upon it a 700-foot three-compartment shaft, from the bottom of which It has driven 2,000 feet of drifts. 1t Is said that under the new arrangement made with the owners of the ground the company will spend more money than it has already put Into the ground in the work of exploration, and that it will also put in additional machinery. Several ore bodles | have been encountered In the workings of the ground, but the Homestake vein, the | one for which they had been looking, It was announced, had not been struck when the work closed down last week, but min- ers who have worked for the company in the deepworkings say that it hoes been struck, and that the values carrled are much higher than where the vein is being worked in the Homestake. However tbiy may be, It {s cercain that the company has epent a fortune on the work it has already put In the ground, and is prepared to spend as much more. The appointment of L. P. Jenkins of Lead as assayer In charge of the United States ay office In Deadwood Is one which meets with the approval of all mining men in tte Hills. Mr. Jenkins was a member of the state senate when the appointment was made, he is a practical mining man and heavily interested in mining properties in this e2ction. The assay office is now one of the most Important federal ofices in the country, for It receives and pays for a great deal of gold bulllon during each month. So far this month it has shipped over $60,000 worth of precious metals to the mint, and the amount is increasing every month. Mefore the end of the month three large cyanide plants will be adding to the amount passing through it. Cleanups Are Large. The Deadwood-Standard company, on the last cleanup of its m'll on Tohuson gulch, produced a brick which weighed a little over $6,000. The plant of the company is now running at its full capacity, and it is believed that the next clcanup will be much larger. Plars have been drawn to enlarge the mill to double its presant ca- pacity. The Alder Creek company on the Arst of the month sent down a $5,000 “rick, the re- sult of a cleanup of its fifty-ton mill after a fifte lay run. The Alder Creek com- pany adjoins Wasp 2 on Yellow creek, and is in the same characten of ore,.a por- phry, and an_excellent cyaniding propos tion. Wasp 2 came down from Yellow creek with an $8,000 brick, the result of it semi-monthly cleanup. The Clover Leat nt its regular cleanup in from Elk creek, about $5,000. This mine cleans up every week. The Golden Crest made its frst regular cleanup after a month of experi- mental working of its new mill on Straw- berry, and the brick weighed about $8,000. This mill has a capacity of but thirty-five tons a day and had not been running tull all of the time. It Is the intention to en- large it at once and bring its daily o pacity up to 100 tons. an important mining deal was consum- mated last week in Spruce gulch property by which the Lexington Hill Mining com- pany, composed of Colorado and Black Hills people, has acquired title to 320 acres of £00d mining ground there. The property in- | velopment work in the past, and has onme | running all arrangements to put a holst on the ground and to make other improvements. The Gold Standard Development com- pany Is making arrangements to put a force of men at work on its Bald Hills property and operations will be begun witnout delay. A shaft 100 feet deep will be sunk and from that depth drifts wili be started both ways along the course Ot the vertical, which shows up on the sur- face. Some very good assays have been received from or¢ broken from the crop- pings, 8o it is belleved that with depth the values will increase. Chicago parties have taken hold of the Bullion group of mines near this camp and will at once begin eperations on it. The Bullion has received a great deal of de- or two large ore bodles considerably de- veloped. One tunnel has been driven into the ground from the Battle Croek side for a distance of 340 feet, and from the portal of this tunnel 200 feet, a drift has been started, which is already twenty-five feet fn an ore body, which gives assay re- turns at $11. At a distance of 100 feet from the crosscut an upraise has been started, the way to the surface, and for that distance in ore. There is also on the property another tunnel 350 feet long, 180 feet below the apex of the veln, in which the ore shows just as good values.

OTTAWA, Ont., March 8.—The Dominion government has called for tenders for an improved Atlantic service. Tenders are asked for a fortnightly sixteen-knot serv- ice and a fortnightly twenty-one knot serv- ice. The route suggested is: In winter, from Halifax to Liverpool, calling at an | Irish port, and in summer from Quebec to Liverpool, calling at Sydney, Cape Bre- ton and an Irish port. The contract is to be for ten years, from June, 1905. Canada Retains Counsel WINNIPEG, March 8.—F.

The Tinton is the name of a new com- pany which has beon recently organized for the purpose of working the tin deposits on Bear gulch. The company was organized 16 Chicago under the laws of the state of 1linols and interested in it are a number of Deadwood people. The company has re- cently acquired a large acreage of land in the Bear gulch country snd upon some of its claims has put a great deal of develop- ment. Recently a mill test of 300 tons of the ore was made, and from the test It was demonstrated that the ore carries a much bigher percentage of tin than does that mined in the English mines of Cornwall. The new company has fitted up offices and boarding houses on Bear gulch and has made every preparation for entering upon the work of getting out ore on a large scale. J. R s the. KEYSTONE, 8. D., March 8.—(Special.)— The work which has been done on the J. R. mine during the past few months has resulted in again finding the freemilling veln from which so much rich ore was taken by the former owners before they lost It in the country rock several years ago. A shaft was started on the ground forty feet below the point where the old workings ceased, and at a depth of 145 feet a drift was run, which struck the vein at a distance of seventy-five feet. It was still in the same condition as where abandoned in the old workings. It was about forty feet wide, between slate walls, quartz and country rock mixed, but the quartz carried as high values a the old workings. The shart was continued to a depth of 200 feet, and at that depth the vein came into the shaft, but in a dif- ferent state respecting the gold, the ma- terlal encasing It belng very refractory. It is a strong vein, and drifting has been done on it for a distance of 200 feet in the hope that at this depth the freemilling ore would again be has not been the case. The ore carries high values, and experiments are being made with a view.to find the best system of treatment for it The shatt which the Grand Gold Mining company bas been putting down on its ground near this camp, has reached a depth of about thirty-five feet, at which depth the vertical which is being followed . widened out to four feet. The ore pans well, a long string of gold being obtained in such tests. The ore also carries a large quantity of iron, and this iron carries gold, assay tests made prove. The company propeses to contnue operations on the ground and thoroughly develop the vertical on which the werk is being dol The shaft on the Clara Belle is pow down 185 feet. The vein at that depth cov- ers the bottom of the shaft. The ore at that depth carries some freem!lling values. but the greater pait of the values oceur in & refractory state. The ore assays high and will cyanide. The company has made it aid in | struck, but so far this | e of Spectatory’ form. LAFAYETTE, La., March 8.—By the m.! ing way of a platform which was occupled by a number of people who had assembled to participate in the dedication of a public achool bullding - at Broussardville today, three persons were serlously and a dozen others slightly Injured. Thought Best to Tell Him. Mr. Toplight, having come into possession of more money than he could conveniently spend, had hit upon the idea of having a bust of himselt made and was negotiating with a seulptor. ““Could you make it heroic size?" he sug- gested. “Yes, T can make it that way If you want it sald the sculptor, “but it—er—won't look natural.”"—Chicago Tribune, Virginia Miners Vote Strike.

A considerabl short Interest had been created, and cover- on this account served to check the de- | ing cline at end of the week ket was in this sensitive While the mar- condition no at- tention was pald to gnod raliroad earnings | or other favorable features, and the Knowl- edge that several syndicates had quietly Mquidated recently at a loss or without profit only served to Increase the seling essure. In present monetary conditions the congested conaition the security market was made verv apparent and tho knowledge that further important creations of new rallroad capital were pending was, of course, unfavorable to values. Many of the financlal leaders are absen: and until their return and the effect of stringency in- cidental to the end of March is passed n real change for the better is anticipated, al though it may prove that the worsc is how being graduaily discounted. Continued llquidation must eventually improve stock market conditions. More disappointment than necessary was per- haps shown at failure of the Aldrich bill Unquestionably some additional reliet woul i have been afforded by the liberty which it gave the accept other high- class bonds than governments as collateral for government deposits, but #ilure to cure his assistance is niot really a serious menace to the situation. It will compel continued conservatism on the part of lead- ing bankers, which has its advantages, an may hasten the adoption of a common- sense modern credit currency system. 1t it furthers the latter object the “Alaiich bill will not have died In vain, and its enemies will_have wrought more good than they knew. Credit Situation Stronger. The monetary situation probably shows more underneath improvement than the weekly bank statement indicates. in spit of low reserves and big louns the credit situation Is probably stronger than u year ago. In the first place, a very large of our forelgn Indebtedness has b celled, a considerable portion having beea transferred to this side. This notabl strengthened oyr position abroad; for, nav ing demonstrated our financial abilities, Europe I8 the more w'liing to respond to our present demands, the course of Lhe ex- change market Indicating the replacing of American loans abroad. The chief trouble here is that large sums of money are stil locked up In underwriting syndicates, not in ordinary stock speculation. Fortunately most of these syndicates are well backed wnd the losses arising from their liquida- tion ‘or_expiration have fallen upon those best able to bear them. It seems ver likely that further syndicate liquidat.o will have to be faced, and tne securite thus released must find a rest.ng piace be- fore the market resumes a rcaily healthy condition; but from the nature of the cs such a movement Is likely to be gradual and accompunied by frequent fluctuations One of the most satisiactory features uffering from thesa mission houses are generally in exceptionally strong condi- tion, conservative concerns having per- sietently advised their customers to lighten tneir holdings for months past. In conse quence the losses are falling upon wealth. holders, whose carlier profits render them abundantly able *o meet present deprecia- tion; In fact, in many cases the losses \re not real, but only a fallure to turn paper profits nito cash. Neverthe'ess the financhu! situation is s confused by overdoing in some directions and by gtrength in others that no safe can be made 18 to the future. Kurther liquidation, as we sald, is inevitable n some quarters, and if business continues good, If the next harvest proves sat.s’uc- fory, If we escape serious stringency next fali,'and If undesirable speculation be held firnlly In check, the market may eventually be gradually and safely gulded into a stronger position. Labor Situation Threntens. The most unsettling factor in the busi- ness situation (oday is the threatening and olten unreasonable denands of labor. Thers are signs that these demands have been pushed to the breaking point, simply be- cause costs of production have been pushed 80 high as toseriously curtall, if not de- stroy, profits and to check new enterprise Buch'an attitude on the part of the labor leaders is foolish to the last degree and will prove most unfortunate, a>t only for capital, but for labor, which in (he end will be the chief sufferer from its own excesses Should present demands be enlarged and pushed to the point of rupture, it may easily start a reaction which, and moderation prevailed, could be in- definitely postponed. Those who control large capital and large enterprises view the situation with serfous concern. Amer- ican labor is already securing generous re. ward, and If costs of production are to further. raised our industrial supremacy, fike that of England a few years ago, will receive a blow requiring years of suffering and repentance for recovery. it should noi be forgotten that we are unavoidably an important factor in the world’s markets, and we cannot withdraw If we would Great Britain and Germany, our chief rivals, are rapldly adopting all our best methods of organization and _equipping their plants with improved machinery; 8o that, with lower costs for labor and smaller capltalization, they are wiready able to outrun us in the forelgn markets until we come down to the'r cost of production. The latter event must fall with most severity upon American labor, because its present extortionate policy plays right into the hands of forelgn labor, enabling Germany and d&ngland to undersell the Americ product and secure a foothold from wh they will oe driven out only through costly sacrifices and struggle. or recent declines, edictions Forelgn Financial, LONDON, March 8.—The stock market last week was absolutely featureless except for Grand ‘Irunks, the January exports ot which caused a quick ‘realization by the bulls who had been bearing them for soms weeks, .

Americans were dull, the list generally showlng the closing prices to be below thoce of the previous week. This, moreover, was true of all the departmens few exceptions. The scarcity of money, the extreme cautiousness dispiayed by oufsiders and the depression on Wall street were tributary causes of the un- favorable conditions prevalling here. BERLIN, March 8—The events in Wall street receélved unusual attention on the bourse here last week and caused specula- tors t) show great reserve, which was in- creased by the rising money rates. The domestic and Fovernment bonds lost frac and most foreign rentes were weaker. Canadian Paclfics were 81d heavily owing to the reaction In New York, the week's drop belng 6.57. The influence of Wall street operators, however, was fel: here chiefly as a borrower of money, for which they were offering 6 per cent and above. Much was taken for New York esterday, but several of the largest Berlin ouses having New York connections showed manitest disinclination to place money there now, believing that the ex st- ing rates of exchange would not continue and that they might incur loss upon ihe withdrawal of the loans for not lending to Wall street was that Germany has lent immense sums to London and Paris which musc later reverse (h present high rates of exchange when {h ioans are repaid. The industrial market showed an Irregular tendency last week Coul shares were higher, while irons wers iower, although the iron market repurts are in the main favorable. The Siiesian Rolling Mills assoclation ralsed its prices o marks per ton for the next quarter. Th. American demand for pig iron increased and American purchases are also reported from Austria. The banks were moderately lower upon the disappointment of the ex. aggerated hopes of speculators caused by the annual reports. Electricals were lower 48 were also ocean (ransportation shares. Machineries were partly higher.

Trading was fairly active, so that the bulk of the offerings was disposed of in good season. Good heavy hogs sold largely from $7.15 to $7.25 and a little bunch brought §7.27%. The medium weights s0ld from .19 to $7.15, and the light stuff from 37.10 down. The heav welghts were in the vest demand today, th same as has been the case for some tim past, and salesmen occaslonally thought they did not sell the lighter loads quite a dime higher. Receipts of hogs this week have been rather light, as there {s a decrease both as compared with last weck and with the corresponding week of last year. As a re- sult prices have moved steadily upward and have reached the highest pol last October. Representative sales No. Av. 8b. Pr.
