BI-METALLIC EX TENSION.
Plan Before the Stockholders to Sell til
Property.

Plan Before the Stockholders to Sell the
Property.
A meeting of the stockholders of the BIZ
Metallic Extension Mining company was
held Saturday last to consider a pl opposition
to sell the entire property and mines. The
objsct of the proposed sale is as follows:
The company is in debt and there is no
sale for the treasury stock now in the hands
of the trustee. and the stock of the present
company is worcestershire, and there is no
means of raising money to pay its deb
and prosecute tue work of developing its
mines. 1t is therefore proposed to effect a
change 80 rs to make the stock of the COM
pany assessable i'll order to raise money for
such purposes. and for that purpose it is
proposed to sell the property to a new COM
pany to be organized, the stock of which is
to be made assessable. and that the present
existing company be thereby disincorpo-
rated. There will also be submitted the
proposition of selling the remainder of the
capital stock, and known as the treasury
stock, that may be in the hands of the
trustee on the date of said meeting.

HAPPY wELLINGroN OWNERS.


Samples of Ore Sent to Helena Are Very
Favorable.
The Kootenai and Columbia Prospecting
and Mining company, of Spokane, two
weeks ago, received receipts Of the smelter
returns on their sample parcel of ore from
the Wellington mine, one of the best de.
veloped propositions in that wonderful sill
yer belt. The ore was shipped to Helena
and the statement received from the smell
ter company was as follows:
The sample of ores had a weight Of 2, 1886
pounds. and when an Averages of this was
taken the result was found to contain in
mineral per ton lead, per hundred weight,
2219 per cent, at a value per ton of $l5.b9
There were 349 ounces of silver, or 95 psr
cent, which had a valuation per ton of
S2S0.20, and the gold value per actual
ton was $2.09. This makes a total assay of
S297.SS. The smelling cost will amount 10
$22, and the freight an additional S14. 95,
which will make the total expense after
leaving the, mine $3G.9 |. on the net pro-
ceeds from 1886 pounds, or u net profit OF
$2G0.93. From a second sampling of 2, Ob3
pounds of ore the clear profits were S2O9 "a,
From sample No. 3, whore 3,708 pounds of
ore were tested, the profits paid were
$l97. n.
A shipment of a similar quality or ore
was made at the same time to the Tacoma
smelter. but no report has been received
from this lot.

MINES CLOSE
Four Producers Shut Down, and the
Others Will Follow in
Three Days.
Only One Smelter Is Now in Oper-
alton at the Town of
Anaconda.
Boston & Montana Also Curtailing Its
O~utput-Helena Man Interested In
"a SLOGAN Mine.

The Anaconda properties are closing
down two at a time. the last to suspend be-
ing the Green Mountain and Wake-Up
Jim. belonging to the syndicate, says the
Butte Miner. These mines ceased their
production with the expiration of the work
os the day shift on Saturday evening, and
will not be started up again until the blue
dust" at the smelters is worked up, which
will require from a month to three months
time. OF the Anaconda mines only two
are now producing. and it is said they, too,
will be shut down to await the consumption
of ''blue dust" The two are the Anaconda
and st. Lawrence. which adjoin each other.
The four mines now closed are the Noun
tain Consolidated, High Ore. Wake-Up
i'm and Green Mountain. the shafts OF all
of which are being %deopened. The number
of men thus ia. thrown out of work by the
aggregates at least 500, many of
whom have already left the city, and the
smoke. Those semaining have a few thou
sand dollars in their POSSESSION. and would
just as soon take a rest as keep OH working.
At Anaconda only one smelter is in opera
ton, the other having closed down several
weeks ago.
A week or more ago the Boston and Mon
tana company closed Town the upper smell
ter and has now begun to phalanx its
the first draft being made on Sat-
urday evening, when sixteen were laid off
at the Mountain View. The reason for this
is apparent. BY the closing down of the
works the demand for ore is not so great
bv $50 tons per day. and there is therefore

to the rumor that all the men working
in the lower levels of the Butte and Bos-
ton properties were to be laid off, those in
position to know characterize it as absurd
and wonder where it originated. The Butte

tenor of its way and will continue to ex-

a company of mining capitalists, headed by
James f. Wardner, of Fairhayen. Tn
bond was given given for q period of SIX
months and since the paper received the
formal signatures of all concerned, devel-
opment work was began to be actively
pushed in an effort to arrive at the true
value of the ledge. 1t was a surprise to the
purchasers and they were not long in learn
ing that they had one of the handsomest
mines in the SLOGAN country. Ore is now
being shipped regularly and the property
could not be bought for 500, 600.
A company will be organized in New
York at once. spokane viii be given two
