ARSENIC MINING IN VIRGINIA
American No Longer Dependent on
Foreign Rooreea of
Supply,
A Virginia farmer, up among the foot
hills of the Blue Ridge mountains, cleared
a new field and pastured his cows there.
Before long the animals sickened and ona
died. Thinking that perhaps the spring
which bubbled from the rocks In apparent
purity might be the cause, the farmer
caused ltswaters to be analysed. It was
found that they contained -arsenic In such
quantities as to render them dangerous to
man and beast. This discovery led to an
Industry, unique,' not only In the United
States, but In the western hemisphere; that
Is, the mining of arsenic ores and the man
ufacture of white arsenic, for the supply of
which America has hitherto depended en
tirely upon foreign markets.
Arsenic Is mined In Japan, Italy, Portu
gal,. Spain, Germany' and England. Its
uses are many. As a poison It has been
known from very eaily times. The peas
ant women of Austria consume large quan
tities of It, having faith In Its virtues as a
beaiftlnci', and the men brthrf same region
are addicted to Its use In the mistaken be
lief that It Increases their bodily strength
and endurance.
Arsenic is a useful mineral. It Is used
In the manufacture of glass, white metal,
parts green and a great vurlety of paints;
In printing calico. In making toilet soaps,
cosmetics and complexion powders; In the
manufacture of fireworks and as a constit
uent of many' alloys. For these and similar
purposes between 6,000 and 6,000 tons are
Imported Into the United States every year.
The average value of white arsenlo may
be placed at about $86 a ton.
It was only about a year ago that the
arsenic - ore was discovered In Virginia;
then the mountain top' round the present
mining town of Brlnton was an almost un
broken wilderness. , The story of Its trans
formation Into a busy Industrial community
Is a good Illustration of the pluck and In
domitable will to which America owes Ita
Industrial supremacy. The mine Is located
at the summit of a mountain, 8,000 feet
above the sea level. The physical difficul
ties that had to be overcome were enor
mous. The ore body averages 25 to 85 per cent
pure arsenic. It Is found In fissure veins,
cropping out at the surface and extending
Into the earth for an unknown distance.
Twenty distinct veins have been discovered,
outcropping for a distance of seven miles,
so that the deposits are extensive enough
to supply the world's demands for an In
definite period.
From the time when the ore enters the
crushers until the finished product reaches
the casks It Is untouched by human hands.
It Is carried along from point to point by
automatic arrangements through each
process of manufacture. The Impalpable
dust and poisonous gasea generated are
so dangerous that the atmosphere of the
plant has to be kept , pure by artificial
means. As a further precaution the works
are provided with hot and cold baths, of
which the men are required to make use as
soon as their dally task la completed.
At the present time the output Is three
tone of pure white arsenlo a day. When
one stops to think of them, these figures
contain some startling possibilities. .The
output for four daya would furnish a fatal
dose for every man, woman and child in
the United States. In a fow weeks the
plant could turn out enough arsenic to wipe
out thj entire population of the globe.
Boston Herald.
The Chestnnl Care,
There should be . less drunkenness at
this season of the yesr than at any other
time." said a specialist in nervous dis
orders who has a private sanitarium for
the treatment of wealthy dipsomaniacs. "It
Is hot generally known In fact, I claim
the honor of the discovery that roasted
chestnuts are a good antidote for liquor.
The average man who drinks under high
nervous pressure, not for the sake of so
ciability, but because the alcohol stimu
lates him to greater effort, Is the pne
whose nsrvous system Is most quickly un
dermined. He miy never get drunk, but
there Is the constant demand for over
stimulation that works damage In the end.
No sooner does the effect of one drink
wear off than there Is the craving for
another. Now, If that man would eat a
few roasted . chestnuts Instead of taking
another drink when the feeling comes on
him, he would find that the subctance of
the nuts, having quickly absorbed the
liquor already in hla system, had appreci
ably decreased his longing for. more alco
holic stimulant. It Isn't theory. I know It
to be true." Philadelphia Record.

OMAHA, net "9 1904
The weakness develoned in the wneat nit
yesterday was continued again today.
There was nothing In the situation other
than the certaintv of a peaceful solution of
the troubles between Russia and England
that would break rr!re. l.lvernnol consid
ered this sufficient for another decline. The
trend of sdvlces Is thst a large percentage
of the wheat crop has been marketed. It Is
ssserted that Nebraska has already sent
I or ward &n per cent of Its whent snd Min
nesota 60 Der cent. The demand for cash
wheat has subsided considerably In the last
few days for the reason that the trend to
wsrd lower prices has enoouraged would-be
buyers to hold back In antlelpstlon of aid
ing the decline. Quite a large amount of
long wheat acquired somewhat above these
figures has been coming out for three days,
and the fact that the weight of this does
not cause more serious declines Is a trib
ute to the strength of Its position. In Omaha
a saie or ino. i northern spring wnoni was
maae at ii.jo a buanel. a netier price man
could have been obtained in almost anv
other market. No. S winter, wltlt a test of

of a demand for the cash grain md sellers

CHTCAOO. Oct. t. Pesceful settlement
of the north sea Incident was the main
Influence In a wesk whest market here
today. At the close December wheat was
off lc and May lUfclNe. Corn showed
a loss of fc and osts c. Provisions
sre practlcsllv unchanged.
In the wheat pit here the speech of the
British premier regsrdlng Anglo-Russian
sfTnlrs seemed to effectually dlxpel all p
prehension of hostilities between Great
Britain snd Russia. The market was fur
ther Influenced by the bearish action of
foreign msrkets. As s result lower prices
prevailed here throughout the entire ses
sion. At the opening December was down
MfV st II UUTil 13, while Mny was oft
r,rc at 81.11M.11. From the start there
was heavy liquidation and also large even
ing up sales over Sunday. The low point
on December fnr the day was reached at
31 12 and on May at 1111. The market
closed practically at the bottom, final
quotations on December being at 11.12. Mny
closed at 81.11. Clearances of whest snd
flour were equal to 31.700 bu. Trlmary re
ceipts were 1.231.000 bu compared with
1.273,000 bu. a year ago. Minneapolis, Du
luth and Chicago reported receipts of 89J
cars, against T2 ears last week snd 1,025
cars a year ago. .... ,
In sympathy with the decline In wheat
and as a result of easier cables and Ideal
weather conditions the corn market ruled
weak throughout the entire sesnlon. There
Was heavy selling by commission hou-es
snd the demsnd came largely from scalp
ers, December opened mho lower at 48
48c. ranged between 48 and 4V'M9e anj
closed at 48UfN8c. Ixical receipts were 98
cars, with 8 of contract grsde.
Oats were weak ss a result of the selling
pressure on the other grains. Trading was
verv light snd mostly of n local fhsracter.
December opened 6v;c1ower at 2S fc'729c.
eold between "fc and 29c and closed at
28-Ve. Local receipts were 98 car-
Notwlthetsndlng the weakness of grains,
the provision market held steady on a fair
demand for lard. A prominent rckjr was
the principal huyer. The volume of busi
ness was small. At the close January pork
was unchanged at 312.42. Lard was up
2c at 17.17. Ribs wp; unchanged at

CATTLE There were not enough cattle
here this morning to make a market, but
for the week receipts have been fairly lib
eral, showing an increase over last week of
about 7,000 head, but compared with the
same week of last year there Is a slight
decrease. Prices have fluctuated back and
forth to some extent, but on desirable
grades values are much the same as they
were at the close of last week.
Cornfed steers arrived in very limited
numbers all the week and the more dealra
bls grades wold at generally steady prices
without difficulty. The commoner cattle
and warmed-up grades were neglected to
some extent and In sympathy with other
markets eased oft a trifle. Packets do not
seem to be at all anxious for the short fed
cattle, but they apparently want all the
well-finished grades that are showing up,
Oood to choice csttle could bo quoted from
36.00 to 16.40; fair to good. I5.60&6.00, and
short fed cattle from 15.50 down.
The big bulk of the western range beef
steers was made up this week of common
to fair cattle, so that the more desirable
grades were scarce and sold freely all the
week at just about steady prices. Nothing
strictly choice waa offered, but good to
choice cattle could be quoted from 13.75 to
34.40 and prime cattle would sell up to 14.65,
or perhaps a little higher than that. The
medium to common cattle are a trifle lower
than they were a week ago, owing to the
liberal receipts of that class. Fair to good
rrad.ee may be quoted from 13.15 to 13.75
and the commoner grades from 33 down.
There has been a pretty fair demand for
cbw stuff all the week, and while prices
broke a little early In the week there is not
much change at the close from the prices
ruling the latter part of last week. If there
is any change at all It is a little euxler
feeling on the common to medium grades.
Good to choice cows may be quoted from
12.75 to 13.15, fair to good from 12.25 to 10.60
and canners and cutters from 11.76 to 12.25.
Dulls, veal calves and stags have shown
but little change all the week. Grass bulls
sell to the killers largely from 11.75 to 12.26
and best veal calves sell up to 15.50.
There has been a pretty good demand for
stockers and feeders this week, but buyers
have been looking principally for cattle of
good quality. Weight does not seem to be
as Important a feature as quality, and as
the receipts have Included a large number
of common eattle speculators are loaded up
with that kind and have been unable to
move them, although they have been offer
ing them at bargain counter prices. Very
few good cattle will be carried over Sunday,
but a good many common cattle will not be
sold. As compared with a week ago all de
sirable grades may safely be quoted steady
and active, but the commoner cattle are
rather slow and a little lower. Oood to
choice cattle sell largely from 13.50 to 13.75,
fair to good from 13 to 83.25. The less de
sirable grades sell all the way from 12 to 83.
HOGS Receipts of hogs were rather light
this morning and with favorable reports
from other points the market here opened
mostly a nickel higher on the better grades.
The early sales were largely around to, with
the prime loads at 15.02. After some of
the more urgent orders were filled packers
lowered their bids and for a time but little
business was transacted. Buyers, though,
would not raise their bids, so that the late
sales were only a trifle bettor that) yester
day's market. The bulk of the hogs sold
from 14.90 to 14.96. Some of the trains were
lnte In arriving, which also helped to delay
the market, so that it waa late befurt u
clearance wns made.
For the week receipts have been quite lib
eral, as there is an Increase over lost week
amounting to about 12,000 head, and as com
pared with the same week of last year there
Is an Increase of about 7,00 head. Packers
have made use of the liberal runs to pound
th market and have succeeded In taking
off about 20c as compared with last week's
close. Representative saies

on it s-.p There was only one car of sheep
reported this morning and no change In the
market took place. For the week rtce pts
have been very light, as there I a decrease
as compared with last we k amounting to
sbout 22.0(10 head and as compared wuh the
same week of last yesr there was a tailing
off of about 24.1K head.
The demand has shown no decreets, and
with such light receipts there has been
active competition and the tendency of
prices has been upward, lloth fat theejj
and lamhs can safely be quoted 15t2ic
higher than a week ago. The greats t lm
provement has been on the more deflrabls
grades, but still even the common kinds
Sre higher than they wera last week.
The demand for feeders has also been
brisk, and with light receipts price have
Improved 10iil5c all around. Each day
offering have been well cured for, aa there
seemeo to be more buyers than lei er.
