nInS-SUTRO CO.'S LETTER.

The market during the past week has
been very active in spots. January,
Jumbo apd Sandstorm show a strong
upwaru tendency. We have repeatedly
advised our clients to purchase Sand
storm and Goldfeld as they were sure
to go higher on merit. We think the
rise in Jumbo is entirely speculative, due
to the complications arising from the
many suits the company is involved in.
If the Supreme Court sustains the lower
court in granting the contention of lease
No. Z and the ~permanency of the re-
ownership, it will certainly bear heavily
on the minority stockholders. AT this
writing it looks as though the company
would be held up by litigation for some
time to come. 1t has been VIGOROUSLY
circulated that Mr.. Taylor and Mr.. Nc
Clellan are trying to fleece the minority
stockholders but we find, after due in
~vestigation, that there is not a scintilla
of truth i'm the accusation furthermore,
We believe that they are entitled to the
control of the property as they W a
large majority of the stock and that
when they are placed in control they
will manage the property for the benefit
of all the stockholders. Under the ex-
listing conditions we think it Il very poor
buy. The upward tendency has had
a good effect on a great many other
properties in the camp, notably Red
Top, Columbia Mountain, Blue Bull and
Kendall. We have, during the past
week, inspected these properties end we
have no hesitancy in advising our clients
to take on these stocks at the prevailing
prices. They are sure winners. In our
opinion the Sandstone is going to rank
with the Florence, January, Combina-
ton and Jumbo as Il shipper. There are
a number of other properties which we
would like to mention but we will refer
you to the news columns of the paper.
We are receiving very hattering re-
ports from the Bullfrog district. The
Original Bullfrogi is looking exceptionally
well. There are a number OF new strikes
reported in districts contiguous to the
Bullfrog.
There is no question but what the
southwest Nevada Mineral zone is the
wonder of the age. Capitalists are just
beginning to realize that they must be up
and doing to keep pace with the oppor-
tunities. Don't fail to take on some
Florida-tioldtield Mining campany at %
cents. 1t is a great property and its
management is a good one. We will
gladly furnish our clients any Informal
ton they may wish regarding any com-
panieS il the Goldtield or Bullfrog dis
trict-.

Not a word OF complaint out of them. dying

Just YOU never mind about that. I'll ind

build them Up- Never mind if it's personal.
I'll take care Of that end"

bad enough. is not anything like one-third.' he
