DEADWOOD. 8. D.. Nov. 2. (Special. )
All of the machinery for the big Penob
cot mill at Garden City haa been set In
place, the engine having been made ready
to run on Saturday. The mill will alart
up for a trial run by the loth of the month,
and after a, few adjustments have been
mad will continue In constant operation.
The plant wax Blared only about six
months ago. and although It la the largest
wet-crushing cyanide plant In the Black
Hills. It Is now practically ready to run.
The mill at the start will crush and treat
about 300 tons of ore dally, but thla amount
will be Inereaned aa soon as conditions
warrant It. Ore will be delivered to tho
mill on Monday, and by the time it la
ready to begin Ita long run on regular
work the blna will be filled with the best
eyantdlng ore In the Hills. State Senator
Maltland of Michigan la at the head of the
company, which haa Invested over' $1,000,
000 In the Garden City district within the
past year. There are only 500,000 sharea
of stock In the company and It la all owned
ty a few people, so that there la none for
aale. The company has recently mode a
purchase of several groupa of clalma to
the north of Its present holdings, which
gives It possession of a v.?ry large area of
ground and the largest owner of claims la
the district. The men connected with the
management are all practical mining men
and have entered the district with the In
tention of mining on a strictly legitimate
tiasls and for the purpose of making their
Operations' pay them a good profit.
Km pert n Railroad. .
The Garden City district has always
been considered. to be the richest sllicious
ere district In the Hills, its ores possess
ing the duality of being highly ausceptible
to the cyanldlng process, but until tho
Penobscot company located there It has
been, In aa measure. Isolated, supplies and
mining Implements having to be hauled over
bad roads. These conditions have kept It
from reaching the development which would
otherwise have obtained yeara ago. But
with the completion of the new mill, It
Is said m ill come the extension of either
the Elkhorn or B. ' M. railroad system
Into the tamp and district. That It is rich
In ore no one doubta who la acquainted
with the development In the district, for
on every claim which haa had a hole sunk
upon It. or a drift driven ore has been found,
ore much richer than that, of the aame
character found In other districts. It Is
destined within a year at the outside to
be producing more gold tban any other
district In the Hills. If the Homestake belt
la excepted, for the entire district la un
derlaid by a vast blanket of sllicious ore,
and this fact haa no better demonstration
than In the workings and developments of
the Penobscot company on different ' and
widely separated claims.. On the Realiza
tion group, on the Smoky City group, on
the Prnobacot group, .the Tacoma group,
ore shoots have been .opened up which
vary Jn thlckneaa from sixteen to five
feet, and which carry values ranging from
t to $50 a ton gold. It la thla way all
through the district, and with better trans
portation facllltlea it will not be long be
fore this-vast body will be contributing
Its share 'to the wealth of the world., It
Is a district which Is Just being developed,
one which' Is,., on the eve of becoming on
of the ' greatest . produee'ra in the Black
Hills, and one which; with the exception
of the dne big company, Is owned by in
dividual and small concerns.
Highland t hief Mill at Work.
The Highland Chief mill In the Spruce
gulch district, which haa been closed down
for a couple of months, la again at work
after having been completely overhauled
and repaired. It la treating fifty tona of
ore dally, and saving, as high a percentage
of valuea aa is any plant in the Hills. Dunn
e Allen,- la the . aame, neighborhood, own
good ground which haa. been explored to
aome extent upon the upper ore contact,
but which has not aa yet been developed
on the lower. Blachof and associates also
own aome good ground In the district close
by, ' which la at present being developed,
while other Individual owners are work
ing with good prospects. The district Is a
small one, and lies just outside of the
city limits of Deadwood, and good roads
connect It with the different plants of thla
city, and it la more than .probable that a
great deal of ore will be shipped here from
that district thla year.'; '
A meeting of the executive committee
tf the American Mining congress has been
called to meat in Lead' or Deadwood the
coming month. The Interest in the session
of the congreaa.ln Lead or Deadwood next
year haa not' been allowed to die down
and the local committee la doing every
thing In ita power to keep things moving.
There will be a great deal of business
for the committee to- transact at ita com
ing meeting for at It the work of the con
gress at its next seaalon will be in part
mapped out. It waa no trouble to raise the J
necessary funds for the entertainment of
the coming congress and to defray the ex
penses which ita meeting would entail, for
. mine owners, bualuesa men, professional
men and others, all contributed and over
$12,000 la now guaranteed. It la the Inten
tion of the two Hill cities not to allow
Butte to exceed them In their hospitality.
Will Do "one Developing.
i. .
The Magnate Mining company in the
Iroa creek district la having Its ground,
about ,700, scree, surveyed for patent. The
company this week will begin operations
on a shoot of sllicious ore, which assays,
where exposed In an open cut, almost at
the surface of the ground. $8 a ton. A
drift will be atarted in on this shoot and
Its development continued during the win
ter months. The company haa a number of
openings, on ore shoots within the limits
of Ita holdings, but on none of them haa
any extenalve developments been made. II
la a new company, and will spend the next
five or six months developing its ground.
The district baa never been prospected to
any great extent. All of the work In It
baa been done on the upper contact, on
which the aame shoots of ore found In the
Ragged Top district exls. Even with thla
small amount of work good ore bodies have
been diaclosed, as. for inutsnce. In tho
Eleventh Hour group, which lately shipped
about 100 tone to one of the Deadwood
planta for treatment and received good
returns after making a long haul on wagon
to the railroad. Tom Johnson and asso
ciate, are working on a four-foot shoot of
goad ore on their ground on Toll Gate
flat, h(ch give promise of developing Into
an extensive body of ore. The Iron Creek
company will begin operations again this
week on Ita ground. The company has a
fifty-foot shaft already aunk, and when It
resumes work It will begin drifting on a
four-foot vertical of pre, which it followed
down from the aurface. ' It la aatd that
' thla vein gives an average value of $10
a ton. A company Is being organised to
develop the Wheeler & Connor ground In
thla district.' This ground has a ahaft about
106 fast la depth ea It, and it la the pur
pose af the new company to continue this
Shaft to the qttsrtxlte. which will be struck
In another 1U0 feet. Besides the parties
and the companies mentioned there are
others working In the district, doing for
the most part their annual assessments,
and all of them have a showing of ore, aa
It Is seen that the ore bodies are not con
fined to any particular part of the district.
A good many men will winter In the ilia
trlct, and when spring opena next year
the country will have received a pretty
good prospecting, and the result of the
work done may be the establishment of
several cyanide plants on properties maklug
a good showing of ore.
storing Ore for Shipment.
OREVILLE. 8. D., Nov. 2 (8peclal.)
Harrington Gregg have obtained a depth
of 240 leet on the vein In the Falrvlew
mine, and are taking out a splendid quality
of smelting ore. which they are storing
for shipment. The ore Is being taken from
a six-foot atreak In the main ledge and
the shaft Is In ore all the way down. This
atreak In which the work Is being done
will assay from $20 to $65 a ton. and It is
the Intention of the owners to ship It
either to Omaha or Rapid City for treat
ment. At the present time but one shift
is being worked In the mine, but when
arrangements are made for shipping the
ore additional miners will be placed on
the work.
The elect ro-cyantde plant at thla place
has been running on ores from the southern
Hills for a part of the time and Is said to
le getting a very blgh extraction, saving
about all the gold values there are. In the
ores. It .1 said that the plant will be
steadily engaged from now on and that;
enough ore haa been contracted for to keep
it running.
Working Copper and Tin.
, CUSTER CITY. 8. D.. Nov. 2. (Special.)
The Central Black Hllla Copper company,
which recently purchased the Dick Palmer
group of claims eighteen miles northwest
of this city, tins' begun work In earnest on
the ground and Is preparing for extensive
developments. Buildings for the accom
modation of the miners have been erected,
blacksmith and machine shops built and
all of the usual conveniences of a camp
established. The company at the present
time is employing, a large force of miners
getting out ore and opening, up the vein.
The vein at the point "where work la being
done on It la about forty feet In width and
carrlea from 2 to 4 per cent copper, al
though aome of the ore Is much richer. Tho
company haa begun work ' on a leeching
plant, which it expects to 'soon have In
operation. In thla plant the ore taken
from the vein will be treated with a dilute
solution of sulphuric acid and the copper
precipitated by the use of scrap Iron. W.
E. Barnes, the chemist and architect in
charge, says that it wfcll take one ton of
scrap Iron to precipitate 1,600 pounds of
copper, and that the process Is a very eco
nomical one and that the ore taken from
the property treated In this manner will
pay well. There are several groupa of
claims Included In the property, and it is
said that ore Is found on all of them.
William Tarrant, who la doing assess
ment work on a tin claim about twn miles
cast of Custer, Is getting out some very
good ore and has a' large body of it ex
posed in the ' workings. - Since the recent
developments In the northern Hills In this
metal quite an Interest is being aroused In
tin clalma In thla section and several out
fits are' engaged In the development of
good mines of that metal. -

STOCKS FAIL TO RESPOND
Wall Street is the Least Optimistic Portion
of the Country.
REACTION FROM SPECULATIVE CRAZE
Itlah Money Rates and t'onsrrvntlre
Artlon of Rnnkera Have Brought
Uprrolatlve Boomers to
Their Senses.
NEW YORK, Nov. 2. (Special.) Henrv
Clews, in Ills weekly letter, says:
Favorable developments In the stock
market have been lew and had little effect.
There has been considerable Improvement
In the monetary situation, but values fall
to respond. Not even the cessation of the
coal strike exerted any stimulus, and the
entire market has displayed a sluggish
downward tendency, In marked contrast
with the buoyant expectations that were
based upon our good harvest only a few
weeks ago. What is the reason for this
change of sentiment? Why Is Wall street
today unquertioiiubly the bluest Kit In the
t'nited States. Are th' apprenenslon.t
wnicn now nmi expressic.i reai or imu-ieu;
or are our people at la.', awake to the fact
that the pace of the last five or six years
has been too rapid? These are some of the
questions which the public are thinking
about, and which only time will solve. It
Is quite certain, however, that the change
In Wall streeet temper as due to a reac
tion from the speculative craze of 1901 and
1H02. The sobriety which follows any sort
of Intoxication Is usually accompanied by
undue depresHlon, and any change in the
drift of events is not apt to be measured
at Its true value, especially If that draft
is unfavorable. High money rates and the
wisely conservative attitude of New York
bankers have, brought unruly speculators
to their senses; diminished profits on rail
roads and Industrials have stopped the en
thusiasm Induced by continued reports of
big earnings; the aggressive attitude of
labor is beginning to check new enterprises
and create talk of necesary retrenchment;
high prices of materials compel postpone
ment of contracts; signs of reaction In the
Iron trade, the recognized business barom
eter, are already at hand; stocks yielded
such small returns at the high level that
they became a profitable sale while good
Interest rates prevailed; our favorable for
eign trade balance is steadily declining;
f:old export are threatened and a grow
ng Impression exists that the crest of the
boom has been retched and that a partial
reaction at least Is due.
Election Cat m Flgnrr,
Added to these naturally adverse devel
opments Is the approach of a doubtful clec
tlon that may easily project aome unpleas
ant surprises. New isxues are at work
among the masses; Issues of a social and
economic order that have thus far been
tenderly left alone by the politicians. Pre
viously the differences between capital and
labor have fortunately been kept out of
politics; but the coal strike greatly ac
centuated these difficulties, and the fear
that they may reeult dlsadvantageously to
the party In power Is partly responsible
for local depression. Whichever party
wins at the coming election It la certain
that the newly arising conditions will com
pel the consideration of a great deal of
new legislation affecting corporations; in
short, we are entering a new era In which
the Just relations between capital ana
labor will have to be adjusted without In
fringing upon the right of the public at
large. Wise legislation will be needed to
preserve stability. This, however. Is a
question for the distant future.

The Immediate outlook Is for a good
traders' market. Quite a bearish following
has been created, but It lacks leaders, and
no aggressive policy can be looked for In
that Quarter while stocks are so strongly
concentrated and well backed aa they now
are. The big holders being In a very con
servative mood appear quite willing to per
mit a downward drift,, and no change seems
likely until the new year or anticipation or
January disbursements Is at hand. An
oversold condition of the market, on the
other hand, might easily tempt punishment
to over-venturesome bears. A rather se
vere strain haa been Imposed In aome quar
ters by the recent decline, and it is not cer
tain that liquidation is complete. The
failure of the market to respond to rlelng
bank averages and easier money Is sig
nificant. There is no real distrust, but
caution Is still observed In high circles.
Throughtout the west business prosperity

enced. Unfortunately prices o agricul
tural products are held so night as to de
lay exports and thus Increase the possi
bility of gold shipments. It seems Impos
sible, however, for the outward movement
of produce to be restrained Indefinitely
when Europe Is ready to buy our corn,
cotton or wheat at moderate concessions.
The excessively low outward freights now

cargoes ordered on account of the strike)
cannot last very long, and this oppor

and largely Influenced by the election.
Foreign Financial.
LONDON. Nov. 2. The plcntlfulnesa of
money which characterized the October
market has been succeeded by con
dition compelling heavy borrowing from
the bank at 4 per cent in order to meet
Stock exchange settlements and month
end obligations. An Increase in govern
ment disbursements Is anticipated this
week: this will enable borrowers to liqui
date some of their Indebtedness. The bank,
meanwhile, has regnlned control or the
money market and the hardening of Lon
don discount rates has not affected conti
nental exchange. That there will be any
considerable shipments of gold from New
York In connection with the purchases of
tho shipping combine, or for other reasons.
Is regarded as Improbable, Inasmuch as
the mercantile balances ravor tne united
States, and It i considered likely that
these will provide sufficient exchange for
requirements.
The sluggishness of the Stock exchange
was relieved for a couple of days by spurts
of activity, especially In American and
British railway sharea. The dealings wuie
mostly professional. The more cheerful
tune prevailing did not Induce the public
to buy to any extent.
BERLIN, Nov. 2. The Bourse began the
week under tho Influence of the gloomy re
marks of Herr Barre. director of the Bo-
chum Gusstahl company, who at the an
nual meeting or the company, nem Oc
tober 25, said the German Iron Industry
was approaching a serious period of Ita
existence and that there existed danger of
the dissolution of the steel rail syndicate.
In which event there would begin a price
war betweeen everybody In the business.
These utterances of Herr Barre depressed
all industrial shares this week and partic
ularly Irons. This decline, however, waa
partly checked Wednesday by remarks of
a snesian magnute, wno waa mure cneer
tul reaardlna Iron prospects. The annual
meeting of the great Dortmund Iron com
pany, however, brought nut discouraging
facts and representatives of other Iron
companies also expressed fliimal views of
the situation. Yesterday brought strong
recovery on strong prospects of the re
newal of the pig Iron and steel rail syn
dicates In the Rhine country. Shares of
the electrical companies did not show a
uniform tendency during the week. Those
of the Schuckert Electrical company of
Nuremburg dropped to M on f riday, but
recovered to 76 yesterday upon the an
nouncement that the company had secured
a contract to build a suspension electrical
railway In England. The week's drop of
other electrical companies were slightly
higher. Quotations upon the All-German
Electrical company of Nerlln rose on the
announcement of an 8 per cent dividend.
This company paid a dividend of 12 per
cent last year. The newspapers, however.
point out that thla year s oivldend would
have been below per cent except for the
fact that the company's tax has been re
funded. Indications are that the retail
industry Is in a bad way with no prospect
of Improvement. All negotiations for an
electrical trust have apparently failed. A
number of American electricians are re
signing their positions In German com
panies and returning to the United States.
The money market showed a greater de
mand for the monthly settlement than was
expected. Considerable demand n il ex
isted yesterday, call money reaching 4'j
per cent, but later relapsed to 4 per cent.
German 'in and Prussian consols were
slightly lower during the week and there
was little doing In foreign rentes. Shares
of the North German l.loyd and Hamuurg
Amerlcau Steamship companies continue to
be weak, hovering Just above par.
MADRID, Nov. 2. The report of the
Bank ot Spain for the week ended yester
day shows the following: Gold in hand,
Increase '-'10. (urn pesetas; silver in hand. In
creased 2,978.000 pesetas; notes In circula
tion, decreased 2.i0s,uuo pesetas.
Manchester Testllra.
MANCHESTER. Nov. 2 -There was a
fair week's business on the cloth market,
but the end was somewhat quieter. Orders,
however, were extremely difficult to ar
range arid negotiations were frequently In
complete. The weather and crop reports
from India show an excellent outlook for
healthy and good Indian Inquiry. In
linn fabrics there was aome anticipa
tory buying of well known standards. The
China trade was not briak last week, al

were entered and prospects are conald

statistics were all against wheat and the
market ruled, weak throughout the dav,
with the exception of sonic steadiness
rally. Longs nguln threw a lot of stuff on
the market anu with no support prices de
clined steadily. Large primary receipts
and rspluiy accumulating stocks were (he
principal near features. Helling oy the
Houthwefct was also a weakening influence.
Worul s shipments were estimated at about
lJ.um.UlU bushels and a lltieral Increase was
looked for in the visible supply. December
opened a shade lower to a sonde higher at
I'V'i iSc and after holding lauiy steady
the first hour the market gave way ami
the ju ice dropped to V.'c. 'I he close was
Vic lower at i'(1iJ'dC. Clearances ol wheat

ago.
tteaknesa In wheat affected the corn
market and, after a lalrly steady opening,
prices weakened. With the lower tendency
stop-loss orders became general and these
offerings lent an Impetus to the downward
trend. There was little demand for May,
shorts being about the only buyers, while
longs had a considerable amount to offer.
Trading in the December option was lignt
and there was a wide fluctuation on
limited transactions. The close was weak,
December closing Sc lower at doVfciMi-jnc,
after selling between 50V: and 51'rfco. Local
receipts were 274 cars, with 67 cars ot con
tract grade.
Oats ruled weak, particularly May, on
selling by commission houses. Inlluenced
by weakness in other grains. Trade w as of
larger volume than ot late, with the local
sentiment decidedly Iwarlsh. The close
was easy, December Vs'tc lower at if-VU'
2!'4c, after selling between 2140' and 3UV4.
Local receipts were 274 cars.
Provisions were subjected to a steady
selling pressure, longs being the principal
sellers. The market was extremely weak
throughout the day and the close was at
lower prices. Large receipts of hogs and
lower prices at the yards were the de
pressing Influences. January pork closed
ZiVfcc lower at I15.32Vii, January lard 3c
lower at !!U2V4 and ribs 15c lower at JK.lo.

CATTLE There were a few cattle In the
yards this morning, but not enough to
make a fair test of value. For the week
receipts have not been quite as heavy as
the previous week, but In excess of the
at me week- of "last year. The month of Oc
tober was the heaviest month on record,
with the one exception of September last.
The most noticeable feature, however, is
that the receipts for the year to date equal
the total receipts for the year 1901. The
receipts for the months of November and
December will be a total gain over last
year and there la no longer any doubt
but what this year will go far ahead of the
big run of 1893, when 853,456 cattle were re
ceived. As noted yesterday the cornfed steer
market has been very uneven all the week.
Packers have not taken hold with as much
life as they might, but the trouble was
that the bulk of the effertugs constated of
sfort-fed stuff, which seldom sells to good
advantage. But while trading haa been
rather slow prices on the average are but
little different from the close of last week.
The cow market lift been very satisfac
tory all the week to the selling Interests.
Ttadlng has been active most of the week
and prices stronger. 1 esterday some sales
men thought they did not do quite as well
as on Thursday, but the total advance for
the week amounts to 1525c. The advance
has affected all kinds except the common,
old ca liners, such as sell from 11.76 to t2.25.
They are only about steady with last week.
Good fat bulls are about steady for tho
week, but common kinds and feeders are
a little lower. Stags and veal calves have
shown little change.
The supply of stockers and feeders has
been more moderate this week and conse
quently prices have Improved a little. Any
thing at all deslrablo may aafely be quoted
15(U2ic higher for the week. Even the com
mon kinds have moved more freely than
they did a week ago, so that the market
has been In very satisfactory condition.
The market on western beef steers haa
nlso held up In good shape. The demand
has been fully equnl to the supply and In
fact has apparently been a little In excess.
Prices ruled strong each day and, as com-
f a red with the close of last week, prloes
00k about UK(jl5c higher on the better
grades, 'otnmoii stuff is not much more
than steady. Range cows have also been In
good demand and an advance for the week
of 15ti25c Is reported. Stockers and feeed
ers also Improved about the same amount,

HOGS There was a fair run of hogs here
today for a Saturday, and the market
opened btyWc lower. Later In the morning
the feeling improved and the last sales
were only weak to 5c lower. The bulk of
the hogs sold from 16.60 to 16.60. and aa high
as 16.624 WBs paid. Trading was quite au
tlve, so that everything that was In was
disposed of In good aeaaon. The same as
usual, however, trains were late In arriv
ing. A few loads arrived at about 11 o'clock
but by that time buyers had their orders
pretty well filled and did not buy them as
strong. The late sales were a good deal
like the early ones.
For the week the supply of hogs haa been
more liberal than for some time paat, ei
will be seen from the table above. In fact,
the supply has been about the aame as for
the same week of last year, so that the
decrease, as compared with. last year, has
at least' been temporarily stopped. The
tendency of price has again been down
ward, and aa compared with the close of
last week the decline amounts to 15jj20c.

8HKKP Three cars came In thla morning,
but they were sold lo arrive at steady
prices, so that a test of the open market
was not made. For the week recelpta have
bron very liberal, showing a gain both
over last week and over the aame week of
lajt year. The receipt for tho year to
date are now over l,;.vi head, as against
I. "H.M1 hend for the entire year of i:M, i
there will be more than two months In
crease over last year.
The market has liren lu very satisfactory
condition this week, so far ss fat st:ifT Is
concerned. Although rereipit. were very
liberal, there w.is riiinPHtatlvtiy little stun
that was good enough for MIN-ra. and tin1
market ruled firm and active all the week
As comparrd with the el last we h
the market n desirable grades oan safely
be quoted sleaoy to strong. lmbs have
shown more strength than sheep, as there
have been ver few good lutnbs on sale.
The fieder market, however, has PKi'il
off a little in view of the enormous stipp'V.
The demand Was fairly liberal, but hard:y
eciisl to the supply the first of the week.
At the close of the week however, there l
very Utile stuff unsold, but sellers had to
ilfan up st a decline of l.Va2.V. as com
pared with last week. The greatest decline
was. nf course, on the common stuff.
