Nat. urally the offerings were very limited as there is no public subscription to the stock. and the allotment to frieuds of the company had not then been or. tlCially announced.
 Most Of these properties have been idle because of litigation, but they are recognized as extremely valuable. In fact. to their great richness was due in large measure the continued ntiga. ton. They will be opened for pro duction at once. and will be an i'm portant factor in the Butte district.
 The new company Is more interest ing for what it will be than for what it has been, as there IS little doubt that it will absorb other producing properties and will occupy much more commanding position in the in. dustrl.

ARIZONA COMMERCIAL IS
 IN MUCH DEMAND

The demand for Arizona Commercial on the curb has been quite marked and the price has advanced sharply The buying has been based largely upon the purchase by Thomas F. Cole and associates of properties adjoining Arizona Commercial and Old DOmin ion. which has led to rumors that a consolidation under Cole auspices will be brought about.
 The conditions at the Arizona Com merctal property are very encouraging, and the outlook is decidedly good with out regard to any consolidation. The recent strike proves to be even more important than was at first thought and assures permanent profits.
 The output at present is restricted by lack of sufficient cars. If this could be remedied, shipments would be substantially increased. The com pany nets a good profit on present shipments.
