Anaconda Standard: pleasant fea-
ture of the mining situation in Utah is
the resumption of dividends by the fam
Gus Ontario mine at Park City which
has just announced one of 10 cents a
share. aggregating $4,000 This great
mine has already paid more than S13 500 600
in dividends. and the property is said TO
be looking better at this time than il has
before in years. The last previous divi-
dend was in 1897 which was for 70 cents
a share, amounting to s112.5O0. This was
regarded and spoken of as '.consoia-
ton dividend. because it was known that
the extraction of ore would then cease
and that no more dividends would be
paid for some time. The Ontario COM
pany is said to have 100000 in its treas
ury. and as there is great ore body
in. sight, there is no reason to doubt
that the dividends will now continue for
a long time. 1t is to be hoped that the
grand aggregate may yet be doubled and
more.
