Bisbee daily review., 1905-10-08

through it's most critical period, and will soon resume its old place as a regular dividend payer.
 
 The Era last week mentioned the arrival in camp of Col. Durham and Col. Parish, both well known as min ing men throughout the United States. They are still at Metcalf, where they are thoroughly going into the merits of a large number of mining claims, and it now seems reasonably sure that a deal will be made on these proper ties. for men of their class do not fool away much time on properties in which they are not interested. Should this be the case there will no doubt be another strong company operating in the camp in a very short time. The present price of copper. together with the gradullv increasing output of the camp is attracting the attention of moneyed men throughout the United States. A large number of claims hve been tied up in the Metcalf dis trict during the past two months which is an indication of the return ing interest which is now being taken in The camp by outside parties.
Bisbee daily review., 1905-10-08

coming winter less dreaded. Some of :he brokers of the East. who are car rying pretty big loads of things much less valuable have stated they would take no more of it as collateral. The real object was apparent: They want ed 10 force the price down. but :t couldn't be so forced. It has been continually going up instead There are enough people with money wko know about the mine and the manage ment to think it well worth having in the house. Indeed, it is one of the things that will not spOi in such a place.
 By referring to the weekly copper letter of Mir. Walker it will be seen what he thinks of North Butte. Hay den& Stone, another reputable brog- craze house. and one of the most con- seratiye in the business say this:
 The feature of the Boston market has been North Butte. the stock selling as high as it. There IS sa very strong crowd back of this stock, and much higher prices are talked of. based on the large earnings of the company. For the month of August the net earnings were S220,000 after allowing for extraordinary expense in the shape of repairs to the shaft, which amount ed to S25.G.,
 Friends of the management consider the property another of the western wonders that the very aggressive Du luth & Pittsburg people have brought out. Their former operations were confined to the Bisbee district with exceptional success.
 The acquisition by the North Butte company of additional property adds greatly to the value, and well posted people compare it with the Boston & Montana.
 IL is reported that the next dividend will be at least 75 cents per share, and possibly s1.
 The fact that the Amalgamated in terests are large holders of North Butte IS significant. Evidently there is no enmity between the two compa nies It IS not reasonable that Anal gamated interests have invested in the stock unless they are satisfied of its worth. and they are in a position te know all about the property. All the Boston and New York com mercial papers have accounts of simi- , lar tone. It is a record-breaker in winning popularity as well as In the way it's shares have increased.
 IL looks as if it were really going 10 be another Boston & Montana and there are those living in Butte whc predict even bigger things for [.
