The Statesman of yesterday has
the following regarding important
transactions in which leading Mineral
mines are involved:
1.-THE arrangements for the consoli-
dation of two of the leading mining
companies of Mineral-the Maria
Mining company, and the Mutual
Smelling company-have been con-
cluded, and the work of delving for
precious metals in that camp will be
vigorously prosecuted. The consoli-
dation is not joining of the two
companies in strict commercial
sense, but merely mutual agreement
to work their mines and the smelter
in harmony.
The prospect for Mineral not long
ago was very dark, but the joining OF
issues 10y these companies means Il
season of great prosperity for that
camp.
The Maria company owns the Ma
ria and Black Hawk mines. The
leading men OF the company are Chief
Justice Huston, United States Marsh
al Piukham, T. Il. Logan and Edward
Darby The other company is com
posed chiefly of G. G. Wing, Davic
Gorrie, Louis Sommer and W. H.
Speaks. They own the large smelter
These mines, and others, will be
worked right along and all the ore
will be treated at the smelter of the
Mineral Mutual Smelling company.
The Maria Mining company expec
to take out from the Black Hawk an(
