Realising by smalt holders caused a weak cloae today In the local wheat market, the final quotatlona on the May delivery being down 5aW4jo. Corn was oft Ho. Oats were ie higher. Provisions were 2 Ho to 250 lower. With the exception Of a moderate show, of strength about the middle of the day due -4o covering by shorts, sentiment In the wheat pit was Inclined to the beer' side. The market opened easier, because of liberal receipts In- the northwest and continued favorable weather for lh crop movement. At the end of the first hour prtnes rallied on reports that exporter were buying heavily of American wheat. An .exoeUent demand for cash wheat at all the principal grain centers In this country also strengthened prices for a time. The firmness, however, was soon dispelled by the realising sales of local longs. Ths market closed weak.

This was none too much to supply the demand. ' . . . . Helltrs of beef steers seemed to reel tnui they were entitled to a little stronger prices than yesterday and they were pricing their cattle accordingly, tin the other hand It was apparent that pacKers were not favor able to any advance and they generally In sisted on paying no more than steady prices. The trauo waa a little aiow, owing in pan to the tfforta of salesmen to force prices upwurd, but still the big end of the cattle sold In fair season. What has been said of the steer market would apply euuHlly well to th market on cows and heifers. The trade on that kind of cattle was alow and while sellers tried hard to Ket better prices the market was generally only steady. There seems to oe quite a little inquiry fur good light stockers and holders of such thought they were able to get out to very good advantage. On the other hand the market on Heavy Tee tiers was certainly no better and speculators, If anything, were In many cases talking lower. The reaaon was to bs found In the fact that speculators, who bought very freely Monday had not found as good a country demand as ex pected. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. No. A. Pr. No. At.

In ,fact. sellers In most cases thoUKht tney got about steady prices for such muff as buyers happened to want. There waa. however, a weak undertone' and It was noticeable that buyers were only picking out here and there surTi stuff as they wanted and neglecting everything else. The result was that aftir buyers had secured what they especially needed the market became easier than yesterday. The fact was that the market at this point yesterday was too high, ss compared with other market points and there was a feeling on the part of buyers that they pold most too much for their purchases. , That fact naturally contributed to the dullness and weakness todav. Shippers should not Infer from the above that the market at this point is nut In very satisfactory condition, as the contrary Is ths truth. Prevslllng prices at this point have been and still are high as compared with all other selling points. Sales In many cases have been Just as high as the samo kind of stuff Is bringing at Chicago.

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT REPORT POU lBOS., " In Masbate, In the Northern part of the Islands, near the town of Aroroy, more) or lesa work hat been done upon sixty or more claims, principally of free-milling gold ore in quarts, and upon twenty or more placer clalmi on the Lanan and Gulnabatan rivers. Manganese Iron ores of high grade have also been found here, but little atten tion has been given them up to the present time. Upon claims of The Eastern Mining; Company, Mr. A. Helae hat Just erected a five stamp mill, purchased from the Union Iron Works, San Francisco, to handle the free-milling ores, and as a result of successive trials aggregating eleven and one-half days, during which an estimated supply of one bun dred tons were crushed, fine bullion to the value of $954.67 was obtained. This would indicate the value of the ore to average a saving of $9.55 to the ton." THE PROPERTIES The, properties embrace 10 quarts claims, all demonstrated, perfect title, with V. S. Patents, and 80 river placer claims of 800 acres, averaging 8.1 rents per yard. Over $8,000,000 in sight on qnarts claims, on which 9100,000 have been spent in development work In the FIVE STAMP MILL ACTUALLY AT WORK To Test Ore At Developed and Producing Over $3,009 Per Month Tbe U S.

No. 3S62 3955 4029 4205 4284 34061 604S The bullion returns here given This is the yield of 224 tons of ore produced from seven of the most accessible mines, or an average of 914.40 pe ton. The mill recoveries on the above test being only 33 per cent of the actual value of the ores, showing an ore value of $41.11 per ton. With the Installation of a modern milling and cyanide plant the recovery would be 90 per cent, or $37.00 per ton. While there is sufficient ore in sight to supply a 500 stamp mill, it has been decided to pur chase and erect ECT A FORTY STAMP MILL AND CYANIDE PLANT capable; OF HANDLING 300 TONS of ore per day The operating expenses with labor in the riillllplnes s.t 85 cents per day, should never exceed $2.00 per ton, of $000.00 per day's rapacity of 300 tons. At the low recovery of 35 per cent, or $14.40 per ton, this gives a dally pro duction of $4,320.00 or a profit of $.1,720.00 daily, or a yearly production (800 days), of $1,330,200. With the re covery of 90 per cent possible with the new plant, or $37.00 per ton, this should give a daily profit of over $10,000.00 or $3,000,000.00 per year, working full capacity. The cost of this new equipment installed will approximate $125,000 A sufficient number of shares of treasury stock is offered investors tSfAT 50 CENTS PER SHARE-PAR VALUE $1.00 for the sole purpose of purchasing the required plant, ordered from the Union Iron Worka at San Francisco, and for its erection.
