DEADWOOD, B. D., April 30. (Special.)
It is now stated that the 120-stamp mill
of the Branch Mint company will be In op
eration by September 1 at the very latest
and that In the mines a large forco of men
will be employed. This company's ground
Is located in the Bare Butte district, at and
near the town of Galena, and had been
ODerated several years ago undnr a dif
ferent management, but poor methods and
a desire to sell quickly and put little
money Into the ground killed the proposi
tion at that time. The Branch Mint com
pany, however. Is a new concern, and while
it includes within Its holdings much of the
ground covered by the'old Union H1H con
cern, it has added to It and Is the posses
sor of about 1,000 acres of good mining
ground. The mill Is being erected In the
town of Galena and has progressed so far
that the power plant has been set up, part
of the stamps are in position and the rest,
are expected to arrive within a few days.
Attached to the stamp mill will be a com
plete cyanide plant for the retreatment
of the tailings, the building for which is
about completed. Mining will be done from
the Hoodoo shaft, At wheh point there has
teen placed Ave Gates crushers, and the
ore will be dumped Into the crushers as It
Is hoisted and from there Into storage
bins of large capacity, from which It will
be drawn as wanted Into cars for trans
portation to the mill, the company having
built and equipped three miles of narrow
road Just for this purpose. Since

great deal of development work has been
done upon it under the direction of James
Hardin, the general manager, and it Is
his opinion that the mine, even at the pres

Trial Ran. of Electrle Drills.
During the latter past of the week a
trial run was made by the Goldstake com
pany with the electric drills whlcfc. It has
lately Installed, and from all accounts they
give the best satisfaction, and by tlicfr use
the work of drifting which has been started
n the long tunnel which the company Is
driving has been greatly facilitated. The
power plant consists of a ten-horse power
special electric gasoline engine, connected
with which Is a generator capable of run
ning four drills, all of which Is located at
the portal to the tunnel In a neat frame
building. From the portal of the tunnel to
the face of the working It Is a distance
of 500 feet, and while running that distance
two well defined veins of ore have been
cut, both showing good values. Develop
ment work will continue for several months
In the verticals and In the quartzlte ore
shoots, and by that time It Is believed' that
sufficient ore will have been blocked out
to warrant the erection of a stamp mill or
some other form of treatment plant. Ow
ing to the topography of the country the
tunnel when It reaches the main ore bodies
will tap them at a distance of 600 feet from
the apex, or where they are exposed on the
surface. This company was organised sev
eral months ago for the purpose of develop
ing and working 150 acres of mineral land
which Is -located in THose proximity tot a
number of good propositions in the Garden
City district.
Lneky Baldwin Company Meets.
J. P. Wilson of Denver, accompanied by
a number of people Interested in the Lucky
Baldwin Gold Mining company, was In
Lead, the headquarters of the company,
this week for the purpose of attending a
stocknolders' meeting, at which plans wefe
dlscusued for the future management of
tne concern. This company owns a large
acreage or land in the vicinity of Hill City,
on which It has had a force of 'men 'work
ing ior some tune, developing a strong
vertical of ore, carrying free -gold and
concentrat.'ng values. Work on these verti
cals will be continued and the company
also proposos to work the surface ground
on a part of its claims for the placer gold
which It contains, and will shortly con
struct a dam to Impound the waters of
Sunday gulch and use it to sluice the
'gravel and surface dirt, all of which carry
good values. It not being a difficult matter
to pan out good wages on many parts of
tne grouna.

the Extreme Mining company's gTound two

ana tne management hopes to have it in
operation before the summer Is over. This

Victoria Is Prospering;.
A switch Is being built to the milling
plant of the Victoria Mining company on
Bpearnah. river at the mouth of Squaw
creek. and it Is expected that It will be

building material and other supplies within
a few days. At the last meeting of the
directors of this company Us affairs were
placed In tbe hands of a managing direc
tor, who has been made responsible to
the stockholders of the company, and, as
his authority has been made absolute all
contracts are referred to him for approval.
William M. Class of Omaha holds this
position, and under his direction the af
fairs of tbe Victoria have prospered. Pre
liminary work on the big 240-ton mill has
already made a good 'start, and the walls
ot the building will soon be raising. De
velopment work continues upon the splen
did ore bodies which have been opened up
on this property, and they are looking bet
ter than ever. This particular section of
the Ragged Top district had been long
neglected until the Victoria entered it, but
tne aevetopmenis maae by the company
have been such that It has prospected a
great deal ot the surrounding ground and

work which is being done by the Victoria
there Is a great deal going on and all ot
it is of a most promising character.

with. Between 8,000 and 4,000 feet of tun

It Is stated that Mr. Franklin will shortly

I.ncky Strike Wants Stamp Mill
Superintendent Allen of the Lucky
Strike Mining company says that It Is the
Intention of that corporation to build
targe stamp mill on its property on Elk
Creek the coming summer. At present
there Is no work doing at the mines, and
will not be until the weather settles and
the roads dry up, for as they are, it is
Impossible, to haul supplies over them.
ork will be resumed, however, Just as
soon as the roads get good sgaiw, - and
the development of the property proceeded
with. It is at present in good condition,
and the various ore bodies exposed In the
workings showing up well.
There bas been some talk lately of build
ing a cyanide plant on the Richmond
Sitting Bull property In the Galena dis
trict, and C. B. Harris, who had the
euperlntendency of the property for a num
ber of years, has gone to New York City
to confer with Henry Eaxle, the owner.
When the property was gutted of Its rich
smelting ores years ago there -was, as
In the Wasp 2, vast quantities of
medium grade ores left standing, and it
Is this material It Is now proposed to run
through the .cyanide process. It ia as
serted that should a mill be built on the
ground it will be a large one, and one
that will have capacity sufficient to handle
a great deal of custom ores besides the
material taken from the company's ground.
On last Saturday final payment was
made by the Reliance company on the
Johnqulst property In the Ragged Top dis
trict, and the deeds, which have been In
escrow In the American National Bank of
Deadwood, have been taken out and war
ranty deeds conveying the property to the
Reliance company filed with the county
register of deeds. This ground contains
sixty acres, and Includes the site for the
proposed cyanide plant which the com
pany will erect this summer. . With this
payment the company has secured title
to all the ground upon which It has held
options that has developed any considera
ble quantities of ore. It holds a number
of options on some adjolnlpg ground upon
wpicn rair prospects . nave.. been, ootainea,
but on which continuous ore bodies have
not been found. It is said that the com
pany is In a good financial condition, and
that It will within few weeks make a
very Important move.
For some time past there has been
rumor current In the Black Hills that the
differences between the American ' and
English stockholders of the Harney Peak
Tin Alining company are about to be set
tied out of court and that In all proba
bility the American stockholders will se
cure possession 1 of the property. It Is
further said that if this end is attained
that the company's properties In the vi
cinity of Hill City will again be the scene
of extensive operations.

through, so that not much of a lest of the
mnrki't was made. As a matter of fn t,
lwf er, buyers did not seem tc be very
anxious for supplies.
For the week receipts show a loss as
compared with Inst week of about 6.000
head, but as compared with the same week
of last year there Is an Increase of about
16,000 head. The mutton market In the east
has been In bad Shape this week ana
cago reports a M( drop in prices tor
stuff. A this point, however, the supply of
sheep has been rather limited and with a
rair demand desirable grades nave nem
about steady. Common and part fat kinds,
though, have been slow sale and ft trifle
lower.
The bulk of the. receliits all the wees
consisted of lambs and ss a result packers
have ben able to break the mnraet ju-i
about 20c on both the good and medium
grades. At most of the other markets the
decline Is considerably more than that, so
tnnt prices here are well In Hue wnn tnoi-n
being paid at other markets.

OMAHA. April S9, 190
llh every prospect for fair weather over
Sunday, with the crowd bearish and mostly
on the short s ite, and no outside buying,
wheat is in a weak position. The May
wheat closed Friday night Ho lower than
II was the s.une ntuht lust year. The July
wheat was l-Sc lower and the September So
lower than a vear ago. In corn the May
cloned at the same flguro It did a year ago,
or 4ti-)),c. The July was 1e and the hep
tombcr lio lower than a year ago. The
May oats closed 12vc lower tlisn a year-
ago. The Mav this morning opened st 87CT
advanced to (iw and returned go sic nt the
close. The hlvh nml low in, lots KflOAV
were S9c and iss';,c. The Julv reenhed Wa
and SlSc for high and low today and closed
at 82c. Krlday the extremes were tw1 and
W-'ic The trade was light In the wheat
and confined to the proirslonnls. Gates
Is reported to have bought a lot of short
wheal In Mlnnenuolis.
Cu.h wheut Is snld to be selling In Chl-
capw at prices which cannot be met Ift the
southwest by as much as 4c. Minneapolis
loaded out ilt cat of wheat, including 41
earn of fso. 1 northern and ? cars of No. 2
northern. The world s shipments are esti
mated at 9.0W.0HO huuhels. The Australian
shipments are 846.000 bushels, against 84.000
last week a id 1.124.000 last year. There is
disposition to buv Julv wheat and sell
Septemher on the theory that the small
slocks of wheat makes It unsafe to be short
tho July at such a low tiremlum. It is
said that Wrenn will deliver over a million
liusliels of corn on Mav Fates the nrst or
the week. They have been bearish on corn
for some tim? and have held the cash corn
since December. Shinning houses were
active in taking oft their hedges Irl May
and July yesterday, four houses buying
600.000 bushel.
If the corn longs (.tend by their holdings
on the first delivery day, Monday, it is
pmbafcle tha shorts ' will cover for the
present. The clearances are 670,ou ousn-
cls. The May corn ranged between 4So
and 45c for high and low, against 40So
and 4f)c Friday. Shippers are bidding- St
Illinois stations for ,-orn to SO SOUtlt
equivalent to 46V40, Chloago, for No. 3
corn, and 4Sc for No. 3 yellow corn.
This would Indicate that there Is very
Utile chance of corn coming from that
section at the present time on the. basis
of present prices in the market. Corn
was chartered at lc and lVc. Chicago to
Buffalo, the outside rate being up tne
river loading. The amount contracted for
was 400.000 bushels. The primary receipt;
of corn are HW.OOO bushels, against 196.000
bushels, and the shipments are 442,000
bushels, against 206,000 bushels. , .

CATTLE Thee were no fresh receipts
of cattlo here today with which to make a
test of the market. For the week receipts
show a Iobs ot about 2,000 head as coin-
Dared with last week and a loss of about
11 ooo head as comDared with the same
Week of last year, supplies at Other points
have also been light, sq that the decrease
a a mmnarul with lust WBfk at six Of tha
leading markets amounts to about 25,000
head. This, of course, makes quite a dlf
ference in the amount of dressed - meat
available to meet tne requirements of the
trad a.
In unite of that fact the fat cattle market
this week bas been the most unsatlstaotory
from the sellers' standpoint of any that has
been experienced In some little time.
Packers claim tkat the dressed meat trade
in the east Is in bad shape and conse
quently they have been very bearish and
have broke the market on beef steers about
30 to 40 cents at all points. This decline is
not confined to the commoner grades, as
the irood to choice cattle have suffered
about as much as the common cattle. The
condition of the market next week, oper
ators say, depends almost entirely upon
the sise of the receipts, as Ahey think the
dressed beef market needs a little breath
inr Good to- choice beef steers are
quotable from S5.75 to 36.15. fair to good
Su.oofc6.75 and common to fair 34.004j6.0o.
The market on cows and heifers has suf
fered the same as the trade on steers. The
decline on the bulk of the cattle, including
the better grades, is around au to 40 cents.
A few cows are beginning to arrive tnat
how signs 01 grass, ana me loss on mat
da is a trifle more than on the others,
1 1 hm been a slow, mean market all the
week. Good to choice grades are quotable
from S4.36r(f6.00: fair to good, 33.604i4.25;
common to fair, S2.264J3.50. Good veal calves
have held about steady, oesi graaea selling
up to S0.00.s The common kinds, though, are
little lower. ...
Tha sunnlv of Btockers and feeders was
rather limited last week, and as there was
a fair demand from the country, the mar
ket has held Just about steady In spite of
the big slump In prices on fat cattle. Some
of the commoner grades may be a trifle
lower, but anytntng tn aesirame is sell
ing In Just about the same notches as a
Week ago. as nign an j.w wiu, piu huh
waelr for some oholce hay-feds and good
to choice feeders may be quoted from 34.60
to 85.00. Fair to gooa attie sen irom
34 00 to 34 50 and the common to fair grades
so mostly from 33.00 to 33.76.
HOUS mere was uuuui a normal run, 01
hogs here this morning and the market
showed very little change from yesterday.
At the opening prices were Just about
steady with yesterday's best time and
trade was active, the ruling prices being
35.10 and 35.12V. Most of the hogs changed
hands on tnai dhhib ui m cany nuur, out,
the same as was me case yesterday, buy
era beared the market on the extreme
close and tried to buy the last hogs under
35.10. Salesmen held on for the morning
nrlces. so tnai 11 was miner laie oeiore a
complete clearance was made. The bulk
of tha nogs couia De pmrea 11 n.u7 to
35.12V. with the choicest loads selling up
to Sa.la.
For the week the receipts of hogs have
been quite literal, there being an increase
nv.r last week of about 9.000 head, but as
compared with the same week of last year
there is a decrease 01 aooui zo.uuu neaa
Packers have been bearish all the week at
all of the markets and have succeeded In
breaking the market a little over 30 cents.
This decline carries the market to the
lowest point reached sines March 30. As
compared with a year ago, however, the
market la about 44 cents higher. Represen-
