A.. n. H, Auburn, N. Y.-Most of the
Manhattan companies of which you in
quire. are excellently located. are in
the hands of good people, and the prop
critics will be developed either on COM
pany account or by leasers. Manhattan
Mining, Manhattan Standard, Consol-
idated, cowboy, Dexter, Combination,
Broncho and Seyler Humphrey are
among the best properties in the new
camp. No map as yet has been pub
lished of the district, and cannot give
the location of Manhattan Jumbo. Cres-
cent Gold, Gold Wedge. Gold, Original,
or Union, and as vet can give no sug-
gestion as to the value of the properties.
Suffice it to say, that Manhattan is look
ing better every day, and there is the
promise of a great camp, and it would
not be wise to classify any of the COM
panies as wild cats which have titles 70
their property and honest management.
There is likely to be quick action in any
of the stocks mentioned. Whether il
would be wise to hold for any length of
time depends upon future developments
entirely.
p. H. X, Wayne, Neb.-No informa-
ton at hand about the Gold Bug Min
ing company. but will look it VI. Quartz
mountain is located near Bullfrog.
w. s. A., Waterman, rll.-We have no
knowledge of such a company as the
Diamond Valley Mining company. If
you can give us the names of the o.
hcers we may be able to get the in
formation desired.
j. C. H, Chicago.-The only Red Butte
Mining company we know of is located
in Esmeralda county, between Diamond
field and the Sandstone mine. The COM
pany owns a good piece OF ground. 1t $
working four men, who are drifting on
a vein found by prosecuting at the bot
tom of a 50-foot shaft Fair mill values
have been taken from the ledge. The
drift is being extended for shipping ore.
A. R. D., Milwaukee.--The Bullfrog
Nugget has excellent location on Bo-
nanza mountain, Bullfrog district.
Claims are Sunrise, " interest in the
Last Chance, and s claims known as the
Nugget group in East Bullfrog district.
On the Bonanza mountain property, the
company is sinking a shaft and driving
a crosscut tunnel. Treasury has $4,000
cash and $50. 900 shares of stock. APP
plication made for patent. No debts.
Vice president and manager, Edwin
Arkell is en- route to the property from
the east. Prospects excellent. The Last
Chance is the northern extension of the
Rush group, which was recently sold
for $150,000.
A. L. p. Richmond, at Dixie
Mining company owns several claims
three miles east of Goldfeld, and has
opened up a great body of IS ore, having
spent in the neighborhood of $75, 600 in
development work. Under the present
conditions ore of this character cannot
be milled at a profit, and work has been
suspended on the property for the time
being. The main working shaft is down
400 feet-from this numerous crosscuts
and drifts nave been run. At one time
some good ore was shipped and there
was every promise of a big mine. but
the values played out. The property IS
not in the producing belt so far deter
mined.
C. T. A, Los Angeles.-We are unable
to get any information about the Kis-
met Gold Mining company, of Beatty.
The best posted men on the Bullfrog
district which includes Beatty, the sup
posed location of the c~ompany's prop
erty, know of no such company. which
would hardly be the case if the property
had merit. However. such a company
may have a charter and property some
where in southern Nevada, but it cuts
no figure in local mining affairs.
f. S. G., chicago.-The Annie Laurie
and Snowdrift claims of the Manhattan
Mining eompan of Nevada lie directly
in the center of the richest belt yet dis
covered in Manhattan. To the north IS
the Mayhower for which 500, 900 was
lately refused by it's owner, Judge Yer
milyea, of Goldfeld. To the northwest
is the Union No. 9. a property on which
fhere are more shipping leases than on
any other ground in the camp. To the
west are the Iron King and the Iron
Queen, lately organized into the Man
haitian Cowboy company. At a depth Of
80 feet in the Annie Laurie shaft values
have been found that are better than
any heretofore disclosed. A new strike
has been made in a drift from the so
foot level, and a body of ore S feet in
width has been uncovered a foot and q
hair of which gives values in the thou
sands. six leasers are now at work on
the ground granted them by the Man
haitian Mining company, which consists
Of Q cross section OF e claims 100
feet in depth. Three of these leasers
are now in ore ard are preparing TO
