BEAVER MINES
INTO A MERGER.
Through a Deal Closed Up This
Afternoon Beaver Con, and Ben
Harrison Are Consolidated.
new COMPANY BEING FORMED.
Will be known as the Beaver Harrison
Mining Company, With Capital
0fL5Oo,ooo Shares,

An important deal was consummated
in this city this afternoon, whereby two
well known Beaver county mining
properties were merged--the Beaver
Consolidated and the Ben Harrison,
both of which are located In the Beaver
Lake mining district. The result OF
this transaction Is the organization OF
the Beaver Harrison Mining company,
with a capital stock OF 100000 shares
Of the par value Of 81 each The stock
holders OF the old companies will re-
ceiye stock in the new, share for share,
and 100000 shares will be left In the
treasury 10 be sold for development
purposes.
The properties are adjoining groups
and are only short distance from the
Majestic Copper Mining & Smelling
company's o, X mine, The Beaver
Consolidated is equipped with the most
powerful hosting plant In Beaver
county, and the Ben Harrison also has
one almost as good, The consolidation
has been talked Of for some time, The
two mines have been under the same
management and the shareholders In
the two corporations were pretty much
Identical, This being the case, 1t was
thought that 1t would be to the Inter
ests Of all concerned to join issues-Mr,
j, j, Trenam, the manager as well as
large majority Of the stockholders,
could see that by adopting this plan
the mines could be operated on much
more economical basis than they could
be by being segregated.
The stock OF the new company Will be
made assessable and BY this means the
company will be able to raise sufficient
funds from time TO time 10 carry on de-
velopment work Manager Trenam has
stated that an assessment OF two cents
share on the issued stock will wipe
out the entire indebtedness of the two
companies, while four Of one cent each,
levied quarterly, will be sufficient to
pay all operating expenses without re-
sorting, to the sale Of treasury stock.

The combined company owns tract
comprising about 400 acres, which is To-

lt Is the intention OF the manage.
ment TO direct all energy in the Beaver
Consolidated shaft, which had been
sunk TO depth Of 500 feet, the deepest
one In the Beaver Lake district This
shaft, Manager Trenam says, will be
continued and no let up will probably
be made until 1t reaches the 1,O0O.foot
point,
Mr.. Trenam was one OF the first TO
place confidence IN the Beaver Lake
country and he has never lost faith in
the region, He has stuck to Il, and
has met difficulties which, at times.
seemed almost unsurmountable He Is
In the fight to win and that his labors
will be crowned with success there Is
little doubt Late developments In the
Beaver Consolidated have been Of a
decidedly encouraging nature.
