MARKETS, METALS AND MINING CAUSE SLUMP I Startling reports of damage done crops by storms over a large western area, with attendant prospect of heavy loss to railroads In summer and fall traffic, were circulated on the eastern markets yesterday and drove all stocks down. Demoralized telegraph service In the storm area prevented accurate Information be ing obtained as to crop damage, and i reports today may be of such char acter as to enable prompt recovery from yesterday’s losses. Otherwise lower levels will be witnessed. A better time never afforded for stock investments, but it Is a bad one for margins. The good news from Ely Central mine probably saved it from going to half a dollar in the general landslide yesterday. Reports front New York indicate that the backers of the stock are proceeding conser vatively and waiting for results at j the mine before yelli.ig. A Derrick & Kerin advice front New York at tributes Hay Central decline to 30,- i 000 shares or stock hanging over the market, but at the low figure j made yesterday the stock certainly i looks like a prime buy. K. W. 11L8E * CO LETTER. Another one of those sad and pal lid markets greeted the traders yes terday and to say that it brought many doleful facet Is putting It mild ly. There was not a redeeming feat ure on the wohle board, not even In Ely Central. The latter did not re spond as was anticipated, showing | plainly that not even the discovery 1 of a ledge of $20 gold-pieces could | cause a stock to make an upward movement during this period. Ely Central again hovered around the dollar mark, going first beneath and then above that figure. That was the 1 extent of It, however, and needless to say, disappointments resulted. The market generally was again much shot to pieces with no immediate sign or reason for improvement. Our dally ^ quotations follow: — NEW YORK AMI BOSTON STOCKS. Open. Close.

ELY CENTRAL ■ Ely Central shaft yesterday pass ed through the carbonates and en tered the primary sulphid.es, thus making demonstration of the correct ness of the second link In the theory which has been advanced as to the manner of deposition of the ore sought by the Eureka shaft on the east of Copper Elat pit. The ore encountered yesterday un der the carbonates corresponds with that in Copper Flat pit, but is not the I commercial grade for hoisting pur- I poses that the Ely Central manage ment feels confident will be found when the Copper Flat pit fault is gone through and the basin entered. j To reach the ore body Ely Cen- I tral management is counting on. an Incline shaft is now being run along the rich carbonates which came in on Saturday below the 400 In the shaft, while the shaft Is sinking through the primary sulphides to the level from which they will send a drift out through the fault, connecting with the incline shaft and continuing on. To date the management of the property has the satisfaction of knowing that every occurrence met with In the shaft is in precise con formity with the deductions made by Engineer Herzig, a fact that gives ground for the confidence which is entertained that the concluding the ories which he has advanced will also be fulfilled.
