While none in authority are willing
TO make any prediction 80 far ahead.
1t is considered likely, II not certain,
that the Carisa company viii again con-
tribute TO the pockets of Its stockhold-
ers q one-cent per share dividend before

meeting OF the board OF directors sched-
uled for he 10th Of the present month.
and the question of sharing another gem
erous portion of profits will como UP.
The surplus that is piling up In the
treasury OF the Carlsa company fully
Justiles the payment of dividends regu~

is able practically to take care OF an
other payment of equal proportions ns

ROMANCE OF MINING MAN.
Founder of Round Mountain Has Prop
erty Jumped at Wrong Time.

There Is visitor to Zion at this time
around whose recent marriage In New
York City was wound q romance worthy
of the days Of chiyalry. This visitor is
G. Gordan. one Of the prominent mining
operators of Nevada. Mr., Gordan was
the dIscoyerer OF the famous and enorm-
ously rich district OF Round Mountain, In
which several Salt Lukers have added
not inconsidcrably 10 their fortunes.
Aside from owning several large pro-
ducing properties in Round Mountain,
Mr., Gordan Is the owner OF the townslte
Of Gordan, Several weeks ago he left
Nevada for New York TO be married. and
upon his arrival In the East he received
wire 10 the effect that some one had
jumped his townsite. According to the
Eastern Journals, Mr. Gordan wired back
to his friends that he would return
within two weeks for the purpose Of at
tending TO the case of the jumper.
Every one who knows Mr.. Gordan is
confident that he will keep his word as
complacently as he viewed the damage
when back East, thore being no more
popular, successful man in the Sage
Brush State than he, Mr.. Gordan is d.
rector in several large Goldheld and
Round Mountain companies. He Will de-

MANAGER REQUA HAS
HAS HANDS FULL
Gigantic Tasks Awaiting Talent
Of Man Upon Whom Re-
sponsibility Rests.

General Manager NJ. l.. Requa, upon
ties incident to the building of the Ne
vada Northern railroad and the erection
OF the hugo plants which are destined
to handle the immense daily tonnages
OF copper ore from the property OF the
Nevada Consolidated company, left Fri
day evening for ELY. The undertaking
of tho Nevada Consolidated company Will
rank as ono OF the most gigantic In the
history OF mining In the West. and the
work Will stand as a monument to tho
qualities OF Mr.. RcQua as n manager and
organizer.
The extension OF the Nevada Northern
road into Ely will represent but small
portion OF the work that WAS originally
planned for execution This work has
been rushed forward with remarka BILE
progress considering the difficulty ex-
perienced In securing sufficient labor,
A still greater problem, however. re-
mains TO be solved before tho work can
be inaugurated upon the smelter OF tho
Nevada Consolidated company. This is
the question Of handling without delay
or dissatisfaction the untold tonnages Of
freight now awaiting shipment.
While the Nevada Northern company
alone will have sufficient freight to keep
lne IolIDS STOCK Oh the new ROAD pretty
we'll occupied for months, there are
score OF Ely companies and many scores
OF other White Pine county organiza-
tions piling UP their equipment and sup
piles all along the line from the sup
plying point preparatory to rushing these
Into the districts where they will con-
fine their operations. 1t will take no
small degree of patience and executive
ability TO meet these tremendous de-
mands satisfactorily,
And when these problems are mot and
solved by Manager Requa and his staff
the real effort Will come In assembling
the equipment OF the Nevada Consoli
dated company and placing 1t In condi-
tion to begin eating away upon the re-
sources Of the company. Little doubt
Is expressed among those who are ia
mliar with the situation that at least
two years Will be required OF steady
work. with everything favorable, for the
accomplishment of this task.

OHIO COPPER ANNUAL.
Stockholders VIII Decide Change In tho
Articles Of Incorporation.

Stockholders OF tho Ohio Copper COM
pany are receiving notices from the
management calling their attention to
the fact that the annual meeting OF the
company Will be held in this city on tho
10th OF the present month, Considerable
attention has been called to this meet
Ing owing to the proposition calling for
a change In tho articles OF incorpora-
tlon permitting the company to incur An
indebtedness OF $650.000.
The articles of the company, as they
now are. do not permit the company to
incur an Indebtedness of over 100000,
and II is desired to have ample oppor-
tunity OF raising sufficient fund beyond
that amount II necessary to carry the
present plan Of development work for
ward Just what the plans Of the Ohio
company are remain for the future to
disclose, but It Is certain that tho COM
pany Will soon be counted among the
most active In Bingham, tho annual

FURNACE CREEK STAMPEDE.
Remarkable Rush Has Been Taking
Place Into Death Valley.

The stampede to the Furnace Creek
district OF California continues TO absorb
the attention OF southwestern Nevada
This Wild rush has furnished no end of
comment all throughout the East, being
one OF the most remarkable in the his
tory of mining, II all reports are to be
credited. 1t was remarkable on account
OF the way it started. and remarkable
on account Of the forbidding region to
which II led men in the race for wealth.
During the better portion of last WIN
ter reports from Patsy Clark opera
tions In the Furnace Creek region were
numerous. but little or no attention was
paid to these accounts. IN the early
spring, when the weather is most trying
representatives OF Charles NJ, Schwab
got into this Death valley country and
secured some finely located claims in
the center of this copper territory. II
Furnace Creek was good enough for
schwab, 1t was good enough for every
one else and the rush was on.
So far the naturalization of this re-
gion has been demonstrated for a dis
tance Of eight miles in length and two
or three miles in width. The ground Sc
cured by Schwab Is composed OF six
teen full claims and three fractions. The
purchasing syndicate was made up Of
Schwab, Charles e. Know, Donald B.
Gillies and NJ. P. Ward who have formed
what Is called the Greenwater Copper
Mining company. The district has at
tracted numerous other heavyweights In
the mining world. including Heinze,
Clark and Samuel Newhouse.
The advent Of the railroad planned Will
do away with practically all the old
time horrors OF Death valley. providing
comfortable ingress and egress and
solving the food and water questions. 1t
has been stated on several different oc-
casions that Senator Clark was going to
build a smelter Of capacity sufficient 10
handle the first few years OF produc-
tlon from the district. but UP to the pres
ent time there has been no authorita-
tive confirmation of this.
There is no reason why Salt Lake
should not step in and secure the busi-
ness that will necessarily follow the
activity in this camp.

NOW HAS SEVEN FEET ORE.
Montezuma Vein on the South Drift
Widens Out Encouragingly.

A. J, BEETLES, one OF the big chiefs OF
the Montezuma Mining company, is dis
playing n photograph Of the ore body In
the south drift Of the mine. This photo
graph was taken by flashlight during his
recent visit to the mine, and shows the
ore TO be Az feet In width. This picture,
however, does not tell all the story, for
since 1t was taken tho ore body has
widened out TO feet. and Mr.. BEETLES
states that exploration does not find one
inch OF diminution.
The Montezuna company Is taking out
fifteen tons OF rich ore each day, or
car every other day. and these oontri-
buttons to the local market come en-
tirely from development work, the man
agement making no effort whatever to
stope the ore. The local stockholders
in the Montezuma are moro than pleased
with the manner In which the mine has
responded to their efforts.

UTAHNA MINE HAS
HIGH COPPER VALUES
Company Strikes Fissure in

DRIVING TO TAP
HUGE BLOWOUT
Foreign Capitalists Securing
Dugway Ground; Means
Better Facilities.

The Utahna company, the organization
OF Salt Lakers who are doing some tell
ing work upon their Dugway properties.
Is in receipt OF very encouraging news
regarding this possession, The COM
pany Is driving a long tunnel for the
purpose Of tapping into the heart OF a
huge blowout at a reasonable vertical
depth, the surface showIngs being re-
markablc for their values. The COM
pauy has no doubt that when this
ground is reached they will have large
and rich body OF orc.
II Will be necessary for the manage
ment to drive this tunnel an additional
distance OF 900 feet before this interest
ing nest of resources is reached, In
making for this point, however, three
assures have been encountered. and from
the last one comes very dattering re-
ports Messrs. Cutler and Nelson, upon
whom is the responsibility of the present
development work, have informed the To-
cal officials that this assure is two feet
wide and copper values have been OBJ
tained from IT to the extent OF 20 per
cent
From another portion Of the Utahna
property the management is taking some
fine silver and lead ore that carry high
averages In these metals, The company
expects equally fine results from this
portion OF their property rs they do from
that part which yields such generous red
metal proportions. In spite OF the
heated term now on In full blast, and
the scarcity of miners In the district
the Utahna company Is pushing work
vigorously and will maintain the present
rate Of development at all hazards.
OF late some very strong financial tnl
ent has been picking up Dugway prop
erty, the Importance OF which has not
been overlooked by those who have re-
mained faithfully by the district from
the earliest days. 1t is thought certain
that these outside powerful interests Will
do more to hurry In the railroad than
anything else could, consequently Dug
way operators are preparing for this IA
cility, confident IN its early appearance.

READY TO LIGHT
FIRES IN SHELTER
Lost Packer Mining Company
Prepared TO Handle Rich
Ore Reserves.
RECENT STRIKE is
FULL OF INTEREST
Four Ounces Gold Contained
Within Two Feet of
New Vein.

Senator r. Macbeth OF Custer. Ida..
who has been identified with many Idaho.
Utah and Nevada mining properties ar
rived in Salt Lake from his home Fri
day morning. Senator Macbeth brings
good tidings from the operations OF min
Ing properties on all sides Of Custer
county. there being q degree of activity
now in the county that never before has
been equaled. The properties In tho
county are in Ideal shape for productive
ness, and outside capital is coming In
with most encouraging faithfulness.
The Senator confirms the recent strike
that created no end of favorable COM
ment about the Lost Packer property,
On the 600-foot level OF this famous mine
the management has four feet OF mag
nifcent ore that serves TO emphasize
most positively the resources OF this
ground. Two feet OF this ore Will run
better than four ounces in gold per ton.
the other portion being rich but OF lesser
value,
The Lost Packer company has made all
arrangements about securing it's fuel and
other supplies for the operation OF their
smelter, and everything at this time Is
in readiness for the lighting OF fires of
this plant. The capacity of the Lost
Packer smelter is from 100 to 120 tons
OF ore daily. and the results from sue
ce6sful season of activity Will be ap-
preciated when IL is taken Into consider
alton that this ore Will average between
$15 and 500 per ton. Senator Macbeth
Is enthusiastic over the prospect ahead
for this property and the entire county
as we'll.
He states that the lead producers OF
Loon Creek, Clayton and Bayhorse are
attracting considerable attention, their
disclosures more than confirming all that
past performances foretold,

NEW YORK VALUES.
Four Thousand Dollars Follow Shipment
Of Fifty Tons of Ore.

Four Thousand Dollars Follow Shipment
Of Fifty Tons of Ore.
The New York Mining company could
have sent no more eloquent argument
to this city OF the quality OF work that
Is being done upon the resources of the
mine, nor OF these resources themselves,
than that given by the returns received
from the last car OF ore sent to the local
market. The shipment consisted OF nifty
tone of ore, and for this amount the Sec
retary of tho company received check
for $4,000,
with the management breaking down
ore from several different portions of
the workings, and with results expected
almost hourly from the two exploratory
drifts being run upon the 740-foot levels
TO intercept the ore bodies encountered
on the upper levels. the stockholders
have every reason to feel gratifed with
tn New York property.
Secretary Deming returned Friday from
an inspection OF the mine,

NEVADA HILLS ORE.
Shipment Number Four May Arrive at
Any Time Now.

The local Offices of the Nevada Hills
company are In receipt of tho bill Of
lading which announces the fact that car
number four from Nevada Hills mine
may be expected at any day. This car
contains GO, 600 pounds, and while the e2-
act values are not obtainable, 1t is GER
tain that this shipment will net greater
profit than any previously marketed from
the mine. Few properties In Nevada
have enjoyed 30 great q growth as the
Nevada Hills, developments have fol-
lowed In quick succession. and the
scarcity Of teams alone prevents the
company from marketing 100 per cent
more ore than now reaches the samplers
Of this valley.
