Plan to Borrow 81, 900, 900 On Unit

WANT TO MAKE IT PAY

Proposition Also to Restore It to-
Stock Exchange Privileges
Money Needed to Meet Payrolls
and Other Pressing Obligations
VIII Be Forthcoming on Monday.



Boston, Dec 30.-There is a plan pro-
to mortgage the United States Mining
company's property for $1,0OO,0OO at
per cent, the proceeds to be used to
equip and develop the property to
paying proposition. How generally this
plan is endorsed is uncertain About
100000 shares have been deposited I'M
der the committees call. AS soon as
majority is in control, the committee
will be in a positions to mortgage or sell
the property, as shall be thought
wisest.
1t is advised by some people that the
stock be Immediately restored to stock
exchange privileges and be< allowed to
find its proper valuation Wall street
has been laughing at State street brok-
ers for ostracising this stock, because
they (the brokers' held a majority in
it, and wonder is expressed whether
this would have happened had the pub
lie, instead of the brokers, held the
stock. 1t might chance that an open
market would establish a better price
than the curb. Mr.. Arthur Wainwright
says he was bid s12 for 1,50O shares and
would not sell because he considered
them worth more than that.
Someone Wants Stock.
1t is apparent that someone wants
the stock, not to say the property.
There is some evidence of two or three
bidders for the property. A member
of the pooling committee says:
"A plan devised for the issuance of
81, 900. 900 in per cent bonds is perfect
ly feasible. and / would recommend its
adoption unless some responsible party
comes forward in the meantime. with
a satisfactory offer to purchase the
mine. This property is today intrin-
sically worth s26 a share, and with the
of 81, 600. 0c0 it can be made
worth $40. There would be no trouble,
in my opinion, in floating these bonds
with & bonus perhaps in stock"
1t is understood that the committee
has arranged TO advance the money
needed on Monday--between $4,000
and S50.000-to meet payrolls and other
pressing obligations. There will, there
fore be no shutting down of opera !
tons as has been apprehended in some
quarters.

Colorado Springs, Dec. 30-The mines

which was S15, SOP 600 As indicated by
the above the year has been one of

The years progress in Cripple Creek
was marked by the opening up of the
largest and richest ere bodies of the
greaitef.t depth yet attained in this

extending Of the gold bearing area by
several miles. These two facts form
the basis for the prediction that next

Years Of development work have at
this time placed the mines on a divi-

predicted that the dividend paying list
will be swelled to at least $4,000. 900.

CARBON COUNTY BONDS.
Delay Caused By Alleged Negligence
of Secretary Hammond.
(Special ID The Herald.)


Price, Utah. Dec. 3O.-About three
months ago the board of county commits
sionefs of Carbon county met and passed
a resolution to bond the county in a sum
less than S. 759. the object being to take
up the outstanding warrants of the coun-
~ at the time statehood was granted.
The loan was negotiated with the state
land board a per cent. The bonds were
TO be prepared by the secretary of state
James T. Hammond and were to con-
form with the other bonds in wording
already owned by the board. and which
the board had bargained for for the
future.
The county commissioners met yester-
day and the bond matter came W for
consideration. when il was discovered
that the secretary of state had fallen
down on the work and the matter will
now have to go over until such time a.
the bonds are received from the litho-
erapher, after the secretary or someone
else has filled out the form. These war
rants or rather the most of them, are
drawing s and 10 per cent. and the cost TO
the county is a considerable sum- be-
sides keeping the holders out of their
money.
One OF the county commissioners, in
speaking of the action of the secretary
OF state in overlooking the prepare lion of
the bonds. Sai5 he imagined the secretary
of state was too busy working up his con-
gressional boomlet aud aiding the storm
