NEW DIRECTORS ELECTED.
Annual Meeting and Changes IN Hid
den Fortune Comnanv.

Lead. S. D., Feb. 2.-The Black Hills
people are feeling good over the out
come of the trip of Otto p. TIL. Grantz,
Judge j. p. Allison, T. j. Steele, prom
inent stockholders of the Hidden For
tune Mining company, and their at
torney, Henry Frawley, are in Denver
attending an important meeting be-
tween the Denver faction of this COM
pany and themselves. For some months
back there has been trouble brewing
in this company, there having been
formed several factions to such AN eX-
tent that a receiverShip was threatened.
Sioux City has several hundred thou
sand dollars invested in the company,
and there is scarcely q city of any size
in the continent that has not some
stockholders. The control of the stock
and the board of directors was in the
hands of the Denver crowd in whom
the outside stockholders lost confidence.
The Deadwood stockholders went to
Denver with the determination to
know how much stock and bonds re-
manned unsold. The Denver promoters,
it is stated, made a complete backdown.
II. j. Mayham will not be a candidate
for reelection at the annual meeting
March &. but will be succeeded by
Judge Allison. Otto p. Th. Grantz will
be Il candidate for vice president and
George Begole will continue as secre-
tary. The board of directors is as fol-
lows: Judge Allison, Frawley, Grantz,
Franklin. Steele of Deadwood. Morcom,
a.. Nj. Stevenson. H. j.. Shaw of Den
Yer. VIM. Sauntry of Saltwater, Mimi.
T. j.. Steele is general manager, prin-
cipal office moved from Denver to Lead.
There is now no question locally about
the future of the company. The mine
and mill have been doing great work
for several months past. The stock
hotation of this company has injured
the Black Hills mining INC has acted
as a damper to other investments that
might have been made. The adjust
ment of the factional differences of the
company is considered the turning
point in the mining promotions of this
district. 1t is believed here that the
Hidden Fortune company can easily be
made one of the greatest dividend pay
erS of the west,
