CONSOLIDATION CoMPLETED.-At the
annual meeting of the Sierra Nevada
Mining Company, held at San Fran
cisco on the 9th instant, the final ar
engagements for n consolidation with,
or absorption of the Sacramento and
Meredith Company were effected, and
day before yesterday the Company
filed its certificate of increase of cap
ital stock to 81. 0O0, 900, divided into
1000 shares. The new consolidation
arrangement includes about all of the
best mining ground In Cedar Hill. at
the north end of the Comstock ledge,
and very good paying ground at that.
The consolidated arrangement will
now and hereafter be known as the
Sierra Nevada Mining Company.
This consolidation of course lets out
Fred Smith as superintendent Of the
Sacramento and Meredith. Smith de-
veloped the Sierra Nevada into a divi-
dend-paying mine, and made it what
it il. Interested motives Oil the part
of the controllers OF that mine prompt
ed his removal from the Superintend-
ency, and now the same controlling
interest pushes him out Of the mine
which he also had just developed into a
paying institution. Smith ri fairly
claim the honor Of developing the
mines of Cedar Hill, even though lie
does lose the profits through unjust
usage.
