There hare been many damage reports from the winter wheat l,elt of Kansas, but as a rule the crop seems to be in excel lent condition. There is usually a bait in business at this period of the year, as there Is a general desire to get a line on the crap outlook before making commitments for tbe future. Whether there is any more of a let up in business than U normal and to be expected at this time remains to be seen The majority opinion is that the outlook is very favorable and that a large volume of trade Is being transacted. There certainly Is less said about the Washington situation, but on the other hand tbe amend ments to the interstate Commerce law have been reported in the Sen ate, and may lead to a renewal of the agitation about the effect of politic s on the business situation. it U Hear that the high price* for commodities, beside* being a burden on the consumer In this country, have interfered with our foreign trade and cut down the balance in our favor, fbln may become an important mat ter in the money markets here, un less rectified by a large yield of such export commodities as cotton and wheat during the crop season about to begin. This is the main reason probably for what let-up In business has been experienced, and besides the uncertainty over the crop outlook there are the decisions in the Stand ard Oil and American Tobacco case* to be considered.

The return* of the railway com panies, as they tome to hand, reflect j the effects of the severe winter in heavily increasing operating ex penses. The gross returns remain very satisfactory, but whatever let up there is in business, would not have bad time to affect the volume of traf fic and the returns of the next two or three months must be awaited, before It will be possible to teli much from the showing made by the transporta tion interests. The eastern railways have refused the demands of the men for higher wages, but it is still prob able that eventually a compromise will be arrived at. The labor situa tion generally shows many evidence* of discontent, with important strikes at Philadelphia and other place*. Home of them are purely local in character while other* have their in ception in the claim that higher wage* are necessary to meet the cost of living whl' h seems to increase steadily. The railways make the same claim as the men, that the advance in the cost of commodities has increased their expenses to such a degree, they are unable to advance wages. They also claim that as wages were not re duced during the panic, the men should not ask for an Increase now. It is clear, therefore, that the situa tion is far from placid, and that ele- ; ments of discord are not wanting The stock market maintains a firm front, however, and this Is taken to Indicate that the large Interests ex pect the Washington situation, the labor conditions and the state of trade to be favorable later on.

Sic'*- Geor» Gann and as*K;a‘es went down tc Globe, Artz., and got title to the Inspiration Copper prop erties, local people have been very much interested In the development work that is being carried on, say* the Salt Lake Telegram Very little information regarding the property la given out locally, and the question is frequently asked. what is develop ment work in Inspiration showing? Recently an engineer of prominence visited the various properties In the Globe district and he ha* written accurate accounts of hi* observations in a concise manner. The following, description has been furnished of In- j spiral ion: "The Insx-iration Copper company, whose group of 44 4 acres lies con tiguous to the Miami on the west, has a length of about 5000 feet on the same mineralized zone a* the latter. The width of the zone on the Inspiration is not fully determined. The mineralized area is in schist, having intrusions of granite-por phyry, and a dacite overflow. The ore Is composed of chalcoclte In a schist gangue, a* is the case on the Miami. Explorations by churn drills on the Joe Bush and Pinto claims, on the eastern part of the group, indi cate a thickness of the ore body of 400 feet. One drill hole is down "1$ feet, another 600 feet. The average depth of the numerous holes is 450 feet. These tests show that below the chalcoclte zone is an unaltered deposit of copper-iron sulphide, some of which might be mined. The Joe Bush shaft, down 400 feet, and the Scorpion, 300 feet deep, are 1700 feet apart, on opposite sides of a mountain ridge. Driving is in pro gress on the 400 foot level of the for mer and also on the 275 foot level of the latter. An adit level is being driven nortbly from Keystone gulch. To facilitate this work a Sullivan air compressor and drills have been In stalled there. This adit will be driven 2300 feet through granite porphyry before it strikes into the ore body. It is to become a working level for a large body of ore above It. The en trance to this arit Is one mile from the railroad. T. R. Drummond, man ager for the company, slates that In spiration ore does not differ material ly from that of the Miami. It Is ob served that the chalcoclte in all these ores occurs In coarse, highly concen trated stringers and In finely disse minated particles. The New Key stone Copper company, under the same management as that of the Miami has been for some time devel oping from a shaft and exploring with two churn drills. This work Is In charge of E. B. Tinker. The Bos ton-Mlaml, next to the Light Hope and Keystone, Is controlled by F. W. Hoar and associates, forming a close ' orporatlon. Their holdings comprise forty-two claims in a body. Explora tion is in progress with two Star drills, now on their sixth and seventh holes, the depth of the holes drilled being 550 to 600 feet. A force of forty-two men is employed.” ItAW II IRK I.KASKK. — An Important gtrike was made on Proskey No. 1, lease on the Coalition at Rawhide, last week on the 125 ifoot level, where a body of ore two and a half feet wide of very rich stuff ;was uncovered, says the Rawhide Press-Times. Some samples taken jfrom this body assayed well up into four figures, while a careful average sample taken clear across the lead gives the handsome sums of from $250 to $280 per ton. Recent ship ments made by the Grutt-Balloon Hill company to the Victor mill netted the company 8«4 ounces of bullion, aside from about $1300 worth of concentrates. Tests from the tailings show that $15.30 per ton went Into them. The Victor lease has all its ore bins full, and in the company's mill in order that the reduction of the ores of the other leasers of the camp may be possible, thus helping in no small measure in keeping the camp going.
