MARKETS, MINING AND METALS COLLAPSE IN LAKE STOCKS LOIRS ALL A Boston dispatch to the News says that Lake Copper was raided on the Boston Exchange yesterday and dropped $16%, down to $60. It was also hard hit at New York. The conditions attending the property should have prevented reflection of its fall in the price of other copper issues, but it seems did not. All the coppers were a little off. losses while not large being general. Lake has been considered over done for some time past. It had a big promotion campaign during the summer, but engineers who visited the property came away with du bious looks and lately have openly declared the property overrated. The smash in the stock yesterday gave the mining list much such of a jolt as Rock Island gave the rails, and Hocking gave the Industrials. These exchange i ncidents have served to greatly weaken public con fidence and until the exchange gov ernors do something drastic to cor rect the situation, the public is go ing to continue wary. Even after remedy is applied. It will be some time until confidence Is restored and prices work back to the level that j brisk trading will bring. Meantime the Just are suffering along with the! unjust. Inspiration was very strong yester day, being an exception to the role and holding its price firm through out the day. Mason Valley was also strong. Reports front these prop erties are better every day. Kly Cen tral lost off a little, hut should he good for advance before long. The situation at the mine Is promising of much within the next ten days. Salt Lake trading yesterday contin ued quiet. There was little or no movement either way. K. W. lil'l,SK & CO I.KTTKK. In direct contrast with Wednes day’s markeii recovery all along the line, most of the stocks again acted lame yesterday. All of them opened strong hut before the close1, the losses were in the majority. Some of the stocks came near to gaining back the* marks held prior to the slump while- th<* others had only the satisfaction of making u good be ginning, losing it before the close. The bigger Issues were hard hit, in some instances again losing as much as ten and fifteen points. The re ported truce between the Amul gamated-Cole-Ryan and (Juggen heim interests, apparently, did not have a soothing effect on the dis turbed condition of the market. It is believed the reported combina tions have had anything but a good effect on the market’s action. I>e mand for Salt Lake stocks yesterday Slumped off a trifle and reports were that the Salt Lake -market again ex perienced a lull, but this appears to be merely a reflection of Tuesday's decline, which, at the time, did not affect the Halt Lake stocks. Consid erable activity was manifested on the local market notwithstanding the slump. Local investors are still taking advantage of every good op portunity and buying desirable is sues at the prevailing low prices, realizing that the time to buy is when they are down and not when they begin their advance.

Orem of the Ne vada Douglas and the new Copper Belt railroad has returned from hiR trip of inspection in Nevada and was very busy Tuesday in disposing of business accumulated during his absence, says the Salt Bake Tribune. 1 he Copper Belt road hap now been completed into Yerlngton and freight iR being hauled into that camp on a regular schedule. A gas oline passenger car, of the same build as the one in use between Tooele and the new International smelter in this state has been order ed and will be in commisson for pas senger traffic in the near future. Splendid progress is being made, it j is stated in the furthering of the line of the Copper Belt and its connee- j tions, and the railroad so long a ] cherished hope of the Mason country will soon be a reality. 1 he road to Yerington is of recog-' nized value to the Mason Valley mines in that district, and is given, as being one of the reasons for the increased interest be ing taken lo cally in the future of that property. Manager George Gunn is still in the east, and at the offices 01 the company 1 uesday it was stated that he will probably not be home for some time. it is understood that Mr. Gunn’s visit to the east is prim-! arily for the purpose of making ar rangements for finances for the erec tion of a smelter for the treatment of the property's ores. As a result of the teHts carried on recently by the management of Mason Valley, the ores have been demonstrated to be of a nature suceptible to methods of direct smelting, and this in itself is an item of no little importance to the company. It was anticipated that it would * be necessary to erect a concentrator j for the first processes of the reduc tion of the ores, but if such action j is not necessary, the test results in dicating that it will not be, the prop- i ositlon of smelting for the Mason Valley people is tmuch simplified and the costs of improvements will be very materially lessened. Mining men familiar with the1 Yerington country and acquainted ] with Mason Valley, are unanimous in the opinion that the property is a very important one, recent develop-! ments having been of a highly en couraging nature.
