The following is taken from the Hilo
Tribune:
We are pleased to note the fact that
we have been charged with prevarica-
ton in the matter of the departure OF
the Lennox, without giving the mules
a chance to see the country. The ques-
ton of round-trip tickets between ship
and shore had nothing to do with the
question. According TO the gentleman
who set us right, and who certainly
ought to know, the departure OF the
Lennox was due to the fact that 1t
rained the first two nights after she
arrived here. The mules were Oregon
mules and had never experienced rain.
Consequently those in charge of them
were afraid to expose them to such an
experience here. The United States
| Government had supposed that it new
er rained in Hilo, because the people
of Honolulu called this the rainy
city" SO they sent the transport here,
| but met with cruel disappointment.
Again has Hilo been on the verge of
| ruin through it's chronic dampness,
and Oregon mules will probably after
this be sent by way of the Suez canal,
so that they can be put off for rest
and recreation at some point in the
| Arabian desert, where they will fee
at home.

Two companies Will be maze OnS Oh
November Is.
The directors of the Dexter and Tus-
carora Gold Mining companies met yes
terday and decided on a plan Of con-
solid ton which will be submitted to
the stockholders in each corporation
for ratification on Thursday the 18th
day of next month. That action will be
necessary only because the law requires
1t, as more than twO-thirdS of the Dex-
ter shareholders and practically all Of
the Tuscarora have already signed the
agreement
The terms of consolidation provide
that the two companies shall go in to-
Eether unC = the name of the Dexter
TuScarora old Mines company: that
ut shall have a capitalization of 81 &C.,
600, divided into SOC, 900 shares of a lar
value of 81 each: that the Dexter and
Tuscarora shareholders shall each re-
ceive 100000 shares in the consolidated
company, or share for share of their
present holdings. This will leave 10O-
600 shares which the agreement pro-
vides shall go into the treasury, Ito be
used, controlled and disposed of by the
directors of said consolidated company
for the purpose Of paying, funding and
otherwise liquidating Indebtedness of

ditions to or Improvement of the prop
critics"
Thus the two companies combine at
a figure equivalent to the capitalization
of one Of the old ones. or, more prop
erly, one-half the Capitalization OF the
two, and make provision Tor meeting
operations at the same time. That the
agreement reached viii prove a most
profitable one to all concerned goes
without saying.

BELL-MARE MINE NOT SOLD.
Judge Sommer Says There Is No In
ton to Dispose of Mine.


The report having gone out that the
Bell Mare Copper company's Nevada
mines had been sold to an eastern
crowd for $500, 600, Vice President Nor
ris Sommer of this city took occasion
to deny it yesterday. He says the cap
itaI stock of the corporation has been
increased from $1,000 TO 81, 500, 600 and
a branch Office established in Colorado
Springs, where most of the heavy
stockholders reside. The whole propo
sitiOn is held by a very few people and
there is NJ thought of selling the prop
erty. The capitalization was increased
to secure money to open the mine and
build a Smelter and within the next
five months the latter viii be under
way.
The vein in the property at present

fifty-three feet with no hanging wall

width runs from to IA per cent cop

The mine is located in Sable Noun

Humboldt county, and the fact that
some of the chief owners recently went

probably led to the impression that a
