QUOTATIONS IN LONDON. _ Statement in an English Journal of British Columbia Properties. - HOOCOCOOGCOCOC It is conservatively estimated that the The Inst nun.ber of the British Colum- bia Mining Review, ' published in Lon- don, discusses the mining stock market ag follows: ‘The only feature of importance during the week has heen the rise in B. A. C's. owing to the completion of the purchase ofthe Le Rol. The prica paid to the numerous shareholders has not trans- pired, but there ia a very general belief that they received. a larger price for their shares than their felldw sharehold- ers did in the firet instance. The Le Roi will be floated early in ‘December with a capital of £1,000,000 in £5 shares. Several prospectuses are in course of preparation. The Felix Klondyke com- pany, which appeared this week, may be regarded, for all interests and pur- poses, a8 a. German enterprise. The jargest and most important Klondyke concern yet offered to investors will make its appearance very shortly. The company owns three miles of Hunker Creek, which has been carefully and sys- tematically tested, and is apparently rich in gold for the entire distance. One enterprising promoter believesin “‘Klon-. dyke for the million,” and hasa number of small companies ready for flotatiun with capitala of £25,000 in 2s. 6d. shares. It ia probable the investors will beoffered some of ‘‘Alec”” Macdonald’s properties. Those who have the best knowledge of the Klondike diggings say that the value of his many diggings ie too large to be accurately estimatedat present. Durinc the week ending November 6th the Roseland market showed some activity, the Republic camp mines receiving the bulk of attention from investors. Iron Maske rose to 64; Iron Horses at 18¢, and Iron Colts at 9 were largely dealt in. Jumbos remained frm at46. Com- manders were in demand at 12, while Virginias fell to 40. Republic shares Jumped from $2.60 to $4, and the shares ot other mines in that camp rose in syn] oT to Torsnto the chief sales on the 11th inst. were: Athabascas 39, War Eagler $3.1, Dundecs 37, Minnchahas 19, Monte Christos tumbled to 8 and Noble Fiver changed hands at 16.
