MAMMOTH TO OPEN DEEPER
BECK TUNNEL AND RED TOP DIV
IDENDs POSTED.

The financial statement submitted at
the annual meeting of the Columbus
Consolidated Mining company yester-
day showed that the year began with
an Indebtedness of nearly $4,000. It
shows that approximately $50, 600 was
put into improvements; that 2,S73 feet
of development work was done in the
mine; that ali Indebtedness Of what
sOever nature has been wiped out and
that the treasury now boasts a surplus
of S3O,148.28. The report also shows that
the receipts from all sources amounted
to $281,626, and that S20S, 1888 of this
amount came from the sale Of crude ore
and concentrates. Payrolls and salaries
were, on account of the great amount of
construction work, installation of new
machinery, etc. abnOrmally high, but
under these conditions it amounted to
only little more than S1O5, 800, or con-
stderably under S., 900 per month. These
and other figures in the report indicat-
ing that under normal conditions, as
they should prevail during the present
year, the total operating cost of the
mine and mill will be something like
S15O.O00 this including all supplies
All of the crude ore and concentrates
produced during the year came as d re-
suit of development alone. There has
been no real mining during the time
covered, Barring the production of a
few cars Of concentrates during the
earlier months of the year, the nearly
S209,000 worth Of ore and concentrates
was marketed between June and the
end OF the fiscal year, Jan. l. If opera
lions should be continued on no broader
lines for the present year than those
followed during the last six months Of
last year, the company would produce
more than $500 900 at a cost of some
thing like $50 hO0 and TINS vpaLa a
profit of about 81 a share on the out
standing capital stock of the company.
But, as the mine and milling plant. as
well as the power plant are now in
shape to bear almost any burden that
may be placed upon them. it is predict
ed the company should be able to earn
81 share net, or $3.50, 0O0 this year.
The report Of General Manager Tony
Jacobson shows that in one single block
OF ore that has been opened up for ex-
traction. there is over 81 900 900 in sight
while DEVELOPMENTS in other portions Of
the property should easily make the
bic ore reserves carry a value Of
twice thai much. The reports goes into
detail concern ng the value Of the crude
ore and concentrates shipped. the mills
line work and other features Of interest
to the shareholders. and shows concIu-
sively that the Columbus Consolidated
Is now one of the states big mines and
that nothing can prevent it earning big
money.
At the meeting 19G30S of the out
standing 2S3 eco shares of the company
were represented and voted unanimous
ly for the following officers and dtrec-
tors: Tony Jacobson, president and
general manager: G. K Mccormick.

and treasurer: w. S. Mccormick and 4.

For several months past the Red Top
has been producing a great deal Of
high-grad ore, and it is claimed that
the mine contains a world OF ore that
would here be considered rich first

rated as milling ore because IL averages
under 800 per ton. Milling facilities
have heretofore been rather limited and
they are yet, for that matter, but the

the company, according to camp ad-
vices, expects to more than double it's
present rate Of earnings. A great deal
Of Red Top stock is owned in Salt
