ALICE coMPANY's MINES.
Little History Concerning Butte Dis
trict Bonanza Recently Bonded.

The Alice Gold & Silver Mining COM
pany, upon which John d. Ryan is re-
ported TO have secured an option, owns
about twenty patented claims lying
around the city of VAUDEVILLE, two miles
north of Butte Among its claims are
the Alice, Alice Millsite, Boston, Magma
Charta, Valdemere, Gusset, woodward,
HaWkeye, Midnight, Blue Wing, Pay
master, Read, Rising Star, Walkerville,
Magnolia, Cottonwood, Curry, Plover,
Reef Fraction and several smaller frac-
tiOtz.
The Alice was famous producer Of
silver in the days before the demOne-
tization of silver, and in its time has
paid more than q million dollars in divi-
dends. 1t is owned chiefly by the Walk
Of years the only work done on the prop
erty was by leaserS, who paid small
tribute to the company on earnings. The
Alice was among the first mines operated
in the Butte district. The property was
opened by the late Marcus Daily, VINO
was sent to Butte by Walker Bros.
The main shaft, that on the Alice claim,
has reached a depth Of only 1,56O feet, at
which point the workings cut into an
immense body of black Ztnciferous ores.

the mine was shut down. The Alice group

in silver was taken in years gone by.
When the company was operating on an
ming, one of sixty stamps and the, other
Of twenty. In the lower workings OF all
the mines there are good indications OF

FILLING THE BINS WITH ORE.
Little Bell Will Soon Ship if Weather
Permits.

superintendent Newton Dunyon of
the Little Bell, was in the city yester-
day. He reports that the new ore bins
are now completed and that ore will be-
gin going into them today. Unless
heavy storms come on TO prevent it,
the hauling and marketing of ore will
be under way within a few days. The
season is here, however, when heavy
snowstorms usually hit the mountains
and close the reads leading up the
gulcheS and mountain sides to the
mines, and Mr.. DunyOn appreciates the
fact that Park City is quite apt to get
it's share of the beautiful between now
and the middle of next month, and on
that account ne is making no irOnclad
promises of what he will do. 1t began
showing in this valley yesterday after
noon and the chances are that Park
City. the COttonWoOds, Bingham, Tin
tic, Stockton and other camps will have
a time of it for the next few weeks.
The Little Bell mine, Mr.. Dunyon
says, is looking splendid and, without
going into detail, he expresses himself
as being altogether pleased with the
progress of development.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. DEAL
Few of the Details Covering the Big
BuIIfrog Transaction.
Especial to The Herald. }

GOldfield, New, Feb. 12.-The most
important news of the time is the an
nOuncement of the sale of the great
MontgOmery-Sh mine at Bull
frog to a syndicate of the friends of
Charles NJ. Schwab, the price being ST.
100000. Bob Montgomery. who staked
out the mine about a year ago, dis
poses of his interest; Malcolm MacDon-
old, who has been active in the owning
management, retains an eighth interest
The transaction in connection with the
MOntgOmery-Sh cshOne, it appears, is
but half the deal. Malcolm Macdonald
parts with all but an eighth of his in
terest in the Shoshone-P olaris, and this
property, together with the Shoshone-
Montgomery, and the Crystal, which
Schwab already controls, will be joined
fnto one enormous company The entire
deal is said to involve $4,000, 600.
This will be great news for the Bull
frog district for, with the best mine of
the camp in such strong hands, the
money spent in development and the
construction o. mills, and possibly
place. The railroad will reach Bullfrog
from the south in June next. Consum-
nation of the big deal has been awaited
for some months. Mr.. Schwab was here
in September last and made a hurried
inspection Of the MOntgomery-ShO
shOne. Tt was understood then that he
made a provisional offer for the prop
eTty, the prOviso being that litigation
then pending be cleared UP and the til
tie 10 the property be perfected as much
as POSSIBLE before the necessary time
has elapsed in which a patent may be
obtained. This has been done.

UTAH COMPREHENSION CON.
How Negotiations on Merger Were
Marred-AII Now Serene.

Here is the latest gossip concerning the
merger of the Utah Copper, Boston Con-
solidated and Cactus properties from the
Boston end of the line:
Talk of a hitch in the plans Of the
GuggenhelmS for q consolidation of the
Boston Consolidated. the Utah Copper and
the Cactus properties grew out Of the
open opposition to the merger on the part
Of President Mcneil, Spencer Penrose and
D. G. lacking of the Utah Copper COM
pany. They took the position that the
Utah company was worth far more than
Boston Consolidated and that the pro-
posed basis of the mergers for ] of BOS-
ton company stock and 21a for 1 for Utah
company stOck-was unfair to the Utah
Colonel z. A. Wall, who owns 10000
shares of Utah Copper company stock
and the Guggenheims have been working
together, and the latter are large own
ers of Boston Consolidated as well as
Utah Copper. The Boston Consolidated
stock purchased by the Guggenheims was
bought with the idea Of combining the
properties.
1T is now understood that both Mes
Sis. Mcneil and Penrose have agreed to
the merger and there viii be no further
opposition. This may. account for the re-
neWaI Of activity in Boston Consolidated
stock the last few days As a matter of
fact the Boston Consolidated interests are
not entirely satisfied with the terms of
the merger, as recent strikes are esti-
mated to have added many millions of
dollars to the value of the property They
believe that the merger of the Boston and
Utah should be on the same basis. Papers
committing both the Utah Copper ana
Boston Consolidated people to the merger
on the above terms, however. have been
signed and are only subject to examina-
ton of the mines now beirg made.

plete and will probably take longer than
was at first anticipated. It Will prob

BACK FROM MANHATTAN.
Salt Lake Man Likes New Camp and
Secures Ground There,

After a trip which covered eight
days of investigation in the new camp

broker reached home again yesterday
morning. He thought we'll enough of

lace ShOWlngS are simply wonderful
and, II the ores go down, as mining en-
Slneers OF reputation and good iudg-
lnent beIieVe they will, the camp should
prove the equal of any in the state
During my visit I found only two
men who appeared skepticaI and bear
ish. One of them thought there was
100 much iron in the ores and the other
considered that there were too MANY
cross-nSsures associated with the main
quartz lodges to make mining deDenda-
pie The main lodges cut through the
country with great regularitv and
strength and, while the country forma-
ton Is largely lime ana Iime-shaIes

that It made scme of the handsomest
and richest specimens I ever saw. The

this exhibit had and to give an idea of
the fever that is on, it is only necessary
TO state that he sold 10000 shares of
the companys stock in Goldfield at 10
cents share during the first hour that
the stock was opened to subscription.
Men are hOCking into Camp from
everywhere, and there is a general
scramble on to get property. While

nation will prove every figure ever made
for either property. The figures which
formed the basis of the merger We're made
from complete records on the properties,
and believe the examination now taking
place Will show an enlarged tonnage of
ore as compared with the previous ex-
anl1nations, owing to the recent strikes
made in the mines. My stock has been
