“Some tew weeks ago a telegram
was received in London to the effect
that-a lead had been discovered in

natural expectation that the shares

brokers prepared to pay the differ-

it was discovered that there was
hardly any stock tobe had at all,
Mr. Wright having carefully cor-
ralled all the paper before he began
his little operations. The scarcity
of shares. when they were actually

and when the astute engineer of the

There isan element in the Lon-

hammering Mr. Wright's flotaticns
persistently. Last year this same
element, by conspiracy with the
superintendent of Lake View con-
sols, by manipulating the mine,
hammered ‘these shares. from 628
down to S10. Owing to this con-

Wright suffered to the extent of

It is a well known fact in Ross-

Then Thorpe conceived the scheme
of employing the Scotch broker..to
accept all offerings;—and after
getting everything in, Thorpe ran
the shares up to £15. He then ap-
plied tor and obtained a settlement
from the exchange, and then de-
demanded the delivery of the goods,
The brokers then found that in or-
der to make good their sales they
had to buy the shares from Thorpe
at his own figures.

The whole story was inspired by
malicious people to injure Mr.
Wright, the character of Thorpe
being a supposed representation of
Mr. Wright. In fact it is a carica-
ture rather than a portrait.

B. C. Murray Endorses
the Record’s Argu-
ment for a Duty.

B. C. Murray returned last night
from a visit to Priest lake, Idaho,
where he interested with Mr. Klock-
man in the Continental property.
He reports a very promising outlook.
The shaft is now down between. 50
and 60 feet, and strange to say, it
has run all the way down in solid
ore. This ore is a silver-lead,
and the assays have shown up very
satisfactorily, though Mr. Murray
for business reasons declines to
state the exact returns. He re-
ports that considerable develop-
ment work is being done. and that

[the trail from Post Hill is being

rapidly constructed. A large quan-
tity of ore, coming -as above stated
directly from the shaft, is already
on the dump. The lead extends
throvgh four claims on the surface,
and Mr. Murray says that he has
never seen a prettier surface show-
ing.

In discussing the general mining
situation Mr. Murray took occasion
tofendorse:strongly the position tak-
en editorially by the Recorv with
regard to the duty on lead ore. ‘5
