An Interest Sold and Soon to BE In

L. E. Ritter, of this city, and c. V.
Wheeler, of Silver City, figured in a
transaction day before yesterday, the
fruits of which will probably result IN
making them independently rich. The
deal in which these gentlemen figured
so successfully was nothing less than
/ the purchase of large interest in the
South Swansea mine at Silver CITY,
upon which company is soon to be
Incorporated, as the papers are now
being drawn up and will soon be sign
ed.
The South Swansea was located few
years ago on the fiat just south OF the
old Swansea mine by Tommy CroXall,
who at that time was clerking for Mr..
Ritter in his store at that place. Des-
pite the ridicule heaped upon him for
mining on hayland, Mr.. CroXall perse-
Vered and within a short distance
caugth the Swansea ledge. Since then
he has had a veritabie bank to draw
from and has always been flush with
ready means. Not long ago he took his
brother-in-law into partnership with
him; and now his old friends have sue
ceeded in getting in the deal, and are
happy, even though they paid twice as
much for their interests as was asked
for the same few months ago before
the Swansea made such an excellent
showing, and the Four Aces, which also
adjoins it, created such furore in min
ing circles.
The South Swansea shaft is now
down to a depth of $40 feet, the bot
tom being in solid body of high grade
ore the full width of the shaft. Another
shipment of this ore, taken out in do
ing development work, will soon be
made; a new hoist is to be put in, and
this mine is starting out to rival the
Swansea, its near neighbor.

tile pursuits, official capacities and in

cumstances of crop failures and eli

the demand active. Offerings of the
stock were at slightly higher figures
than during the previous week. The
directors of the company are scheduled
for a meeting early in May at which
some important improvements will be
under consideration. There is a
noticeable increase in the value of the
product shipments, due undoubtedly
to the fact that higher grade of ore
is now being milled. The properties
are in admirable condition. Morgan
(NIears) is just getting its new hoist
into position and as soon as this i'm
provement is perfected will commence
the shipment of ore. Mammoth re-
NAMED practically unchanged during
the week with the demand quite active
and offerings limited. The increase in
the capacity at the mill is being very
rapidly completed Shipments of ore
concentrates and fine gold and silver
bars are such as to make the stock
holders feel confident Of early divi-
bends.
Very little Ontario came out, al
though bidding was active and the
quotations if anything higher than dur
ing the previous week. The company
paid it's usual dividend of 10 cents per
share on the 18th. Silver King was in
good demand at higher prices. The
usual dividend of % cents per share
comes on the 18th of May. Sunshine
made little change in prices although
everything out at the mines and mill
is looking better daily. The saving of
values is now something above IA per
cent with every prospect of it being
worked up to 80 or 95 per cent. in the
very near future. Ore developments
during the past ten days has been
highly encouraging. Swansea made
little change during the week and
closed strong. With the new hoist IN
operation the company will be able to
make increased ore shipments. Cold
Dust is looking very well with good
body of ore showing. Assays above
$40 were received about the middle OF
the week. Utah will probably pay
double dividend on the 10th of May

ed by Mr.. Ryan.
Since securing this option, which Gov
ers some of the richest gravel deposits
to be found on the river, negotiations
have been pending for the formation
of a company for the successful ma
nipulation of this placer ground and
Wednesday the deal was consummated,
the gentlemen above named selling an
interest in the bond to John Beck, of
Buflion-Beck fame; Judge Charles
Stayner, Arthur Stayner and Messrs.
Donnelson and Young.
Wednesday night Messrs Shock and
Donnelson left for the river. Mr.. Dom
nelson will examine the property for
the intended purchasers, and, if found
satisfactory, Mr.. Schock has certified
checks in his inside pocket wherewith
to life the bond, and as soon as this
is done these gentlemen will hasten
back to this city, when a company is to
be organized, with these two bars as
its basis. to be known as the San Diego

days after the organization Of the COM

and in operation, the motive power to
be an S-horse power gasoline engine,
and as these machines will save on an
average of $100 each daily in gold, it
is believed that the enterprise will
prove to be most successful one.
The gravel on these bars run from 81
to Sc in gold to the cubic yard. which
is considered as very good diggings.
Messrs. Mitchell and Ryan have had
a great deal of experience on the Colo

they have been engaged in placer min

ing that the new company is sure to
make a fortune.
