BIG COMPANY
FOR ELY CAMP
Enterprise Being Launched That Is
as Powerful as the Nevada
Consolidated.
GEO. E. QUINN TURNS TRICK
PROPERTIES FLANK THOSE OF
CAMPS BIGGEST BONANZA.
GEO. E. QUINN TURNS TRICK

While the matter has been guarded
carefully, the news leaked out yester-
day afternoon that a company the
equal in financial strength of the Ne
Vada Consolidated, and owning a mag
nif1cent lot of territory thanking the
Ely's biggest concern, has Just been
rounded out by George E. Gum, the
chief field expert on the staff Of the
American Smelling & Refining COM
pany. The new company will be known
as the Cumberland-Ely, and its com
pIete financing, 1t is stated on author
1ty, was fully accomplished by Mr.. Gum
during his recent trip to New York.
Like the promotion of the East Butte
company, few weeks ago, it is said
that Ii has not been a question in the
hotatfOn of the Cum berland- as to
whether takers could be found for the
stock offered; it has been simply q
question Of whether there would be
enough to go round. Subscribers to the
stock in this city have been already no
titled that their orders would have to
lDe trimmed owing to the fact that ap-
plications for the shares, the original
issue OF which was offered at 81 a share
were altogether too many to permit
making the aIlOtmentS as requested.
While the organization has not yet
been completely formed, il was stated
yesterday that local subscribers had
received offers of 50 a share for the
stock which is coming to them.
Those cOnversant with what has been
going on declare that the property of
the new company was secured by Mr..
Gunnafter a thorough personal inves-
tfSation, and with a care that is char
aCteristic of his actions in the field at
all times. No one has been given an
edge on anybody else in getting into
the new corporation, 1t IS said. All
have Jared alike, Mr. Gum with the
rest, though he was compensated for
his time, labor and talent exercised in
rounding I'D the territory which be-
longs to the organization.
No time was lost by Mr. Gum after
securing the ground, and before leaving
camp for the east he took the precau-
ton to start work on several shafts in
order that the present season might
bring the properties up to the produc-
ing stage.
Mr.. Gum Is convinced, it is said, that
Ely viii develop into one of the biggest
copper camps in the world. and his re-
ports on the properties turned into his
company are said to carry the prom
ise they will compare favOrabIy with
the best of which the district can boast
Consolidated.
Details of the whole proposition are
expected to be made public during The
next few DAYS. 1t is understood that
the American Smelling q Refining COM
pany has nothing to do with the for
nation of this company.

Merger Movement Is Denied-Insid
ers Taking New Stock Issue.

Discussing the affairs of the Tintic
company, which owns the Yampa mines
and smelter at Bingham, Boston paper
declares there is no foundation for the
rumors that the companys properties
might go into the big merger of Bingham
copper mines being rounded out by the
Guggenheins. 1t then enters the ''rumor'
field on its own account and says:
THE Yampa adjOins the Utah COnsoli-
dated and eventually may find Judgment
with that company, but there have never
been negotiation to such an end
The increase of 10000 shares of stock
in the Tintic company is stated to be sole
~ for the purpose of reimbursing the
directors and large stockholders of the
company who advanced money TO pay for
smeIter construction and mine develop
ment Most Of the directors will take
stock in the company at $50 per share
in payment of their notes.
The Yampa smelter has been rebuilt. 1t
now has two blast furnaces and rever-
beratory furnace. A converting plant
will probably be installed at once so as
to permit the making of blister copper.
The Yampa mine produced a little better
than 10000 pounds of copper per month
the past year and in 1906 it is expected
to output 100000 pounds Of copper per
month.

Several Stocks Make Advances and
Whole List Continues Strong.

Beck Tunnel, DAILY, Daly-Judge and
Carisa each presented a strong face to
the bears yesterday and. according to
the talent, there is a likelihood that each

bear element and Daily, with the impress

days pass into new hands, was moved
up from CSC to s1121k. Daly-Judge was
strong at $50 to $S.1212 and Carisa gave
signs Of strength such as 1t has not
shown in several days.

CONDITIONS AT MAY DAY.
Stringers of Ore on 800 Level, but
No Strike,


Manager J. E. Darmer of the May
Day at Tintic yes.Nrday made the
statement that there were two cars of
lease ore and one car of company ore
ready to ship. but that 1t had been i'm
possible to get teams to do the haul
ing. Within the last twenty-four hours
heavy rains have hit the camp and the
reports yesterday were to the effect
that the roads were we'll nigh impassi-
BILE
II don't want the impression to go
out that a strike has been made in the
mine" said Manager Darmer. Moth
ing could be farther from the truth.
The little ore that We have been get
ting came as a result of the prospect
ing that has been going on IN the 300
foot level. We have had little string
ers of ore cutting through the face of
the drift and we have been doing a lit
tie raising and sinking, cTOss-cu ting
etc. in the hope that they might lead
to something. There have been no re-
suits worthy Of mention, so far, and
am not able to hold out any encourage
ment. so far as operations on the 800
level is concerned. We are hopeful OF
results from the work that is being
done on the 400 and 50O-fOot levels. bur
we have not yet reached point where
changes are to be expected, f thew
come at all. Whiting a few weeks we
ought to know what the ground is
worth in the direction we are going on
these levels. There is nothing in sight
now, however, TO make any noise
