The Richmond being a London in
corporation, but little is known of its
affairs in this country. We presume
there are but few people in this COM
munity who know the number of
shares in the company. The follow
ing facts will therefore be interesting:
The total number of shares is 81 900,
of the par value OF So each. The
company has paid in dividends about
Sl7 Ier share. The stock at last ac-
counts was selling in the London mat
ket at an average of S3l %. This would
give the property a total value Of
81 ,6S7 500. Eureka Consolidated closed
yesterday in the san Francisco market
at S35 per share. There are 81, 200
shares in the company. At yesterdays
quotations the whole property is worth
81 $50, 900, or S62 800 more than the
Richmond. 1t will he seen from the
foregoing figures that the value of
these great mines does not differ ma
terialiy on either side OF the Atlantic.

j.. j.. Kermeen, for many years the
efficient foreman of the Dunderbarg
and Atlas mines, returned Wednesday
evening from a six months visit to
the Bay. He has come back to stay
and will, we believe. take a position at
the Jackson. Mr.. kermeen saws he
heard most of the evidence in our
great mining suit. He thinks there
was some pretty tall swearing on the
part OF the distinguished experts.
Gentlemen may honestly differ on
theory. but they ought to agree on
questions of fact. For instance, it
looks a little tough for one set of ex
perts 10 testify that there are bodies of
ore in certain places, and another set
to swear That there il not a pound in
sight in the same Identical spots. This
is certainly pretty rough, and goes far
