The Douglass Group.

The Douglass group of copper
mines in the Hawthorne district have
again been bonded for a short period
to a mining promoter from Butte,
Thompson Campbell. The price is
$3.50, 900, and Mr., Campbell will con.
tinue development work on the prop
erty and left Wednesday for San
Francisco. 1t is his intention to put
a gasoline engine, a hoist, and an air
compressor for machine drills and
sink the old shaft on the property to
water level. There are few copper
properties in this state or any other
state, which have as fine a showing
to make a big mine as the Douglass,
and in the near future it will be
classed with the big copper produc-
ers OF the United States.

sue went into the pockets of any Of
the stockholders or the directors.
The same means were followed as
used in the increasing Of the capitali-
cation of the North Star, Mcnamara
and other Tonopah properties.
''The meeting in question was a

iority Of the stockholders either
voted for the increase Or were per-
fectly cognizant Of what was happen
ing. The Cash Boy is too good a
property to have its shares hammered
down at present and the stock board
figures today, evidence that | am
correct"
The above article was followed in
the next issue of the News by a
statement signed by H. j.. Humph-
reys, secretary Of the company,
which showed clearly and concluslvely
that the best interests of the stock
holders had been subserved at all
times. Mr.. Humphreys statement,
which was quite lengthy, was in part
as follows:
Last October, when the fact was
fully established that the Golden
Anchor ledge was headed direct for
the Cash Boy claim, but bearing
slightly to the north, the directors OF
the Cash Boy company considered
it of very much Importance to secure,
if possible, the "Keystone Fraction, y
so that il the Golden Anchor ledge
should possibly strike Cash Boy on
the northeast corner this fraction
would certainly prove a most valu.
able adjunct to the company. In
order to make the purchase it was
necessary to call a special meeting Of
the stockholders, which was done ac,
cording to law, and the meeting was
held at the Office Of the president o
the company at Reno, Oct. 10, 1905.
At this meeting it was decided tC
purchase the keystone will
treasury stock and in order to do so
it was decided by a two-thirds vote
of the issued stock, to increase the
capitalization to 1000, 900 shares
100, 900 shares of this was paid fol
the Keystone" and the other 400,
900 was placed in the treasury ant
all of this remaining unsold when the
mine is placed on a self-sustainina
basis, will be subject to distribution
among all the stockholders, by mean,
of a stock dividend. The history o
Tonopah shows that it is quite i'm
possible for a company to fully de
velop a mine in that district with
capitalization of 500, 600, or evel
$50, 600 shares. The North Star
Midway, Mcnamara and others hav,
increased their capitalization to l,
600, 900 shares since Cash Boy wa
organized.
| consider that Cash Boy, with
capitalization of 1000, 600 shares
with 375, 900 shares in the treasury
with no debts whatever; also abou
$50, 900 in the treasury for develop
ment; a fully equipped steam hoist
capable of sinking 1900 feet, and
large ledge recently cut in the shat
at 275 feet, the extent and values c
which r yet undetermined, is toda
a much stronger corporation and
safer investment than ever before.

Cash Boy Mining Company. The
stockholders in Carson, Reno, Elko,
Tonopah and other places are up in
arms over what they claim was an
Illegal recapitalization Of the com
pany at a secret meeting held last
October. The Carson News in a
lengthy article gives the facts Gov
eriug The subject as follows:
"When Albert Jackson received
his certificate Of Cash Boy stock pur-
chased at the Nye and Ormsby
County Bank yesterday afternoon he
was surprised to see that the GER
t%ificalc called for a capitalization Of
one million shares. 1t was his inn
pressiof hat the company had been
incorporated for only half a million
shares.
AIR jackson called the attention
OF Assistant Cashier George Cowing
aud Deputy Sheriff Fred Knoblock to
the Gglnes. Both were certain that
they bad not heard of this increase
in capitalization before.
''The news spread rapidly, for
Cash Boy is a stock that is very
largely held in this city and a doub-
ling in capitalization is supposed to
result in a halving Of value. 1t was
$3.50 before the News was informed
Of the discovery" and an attempt
vas made to get to the bottom Of the
affair, but, owing to the serious ILL.,
ness Of H, j. Humphreys, secretary
Of the company, it was impossible to
get any direct evidence in The case in
time for yesterdays issue.
During last evening and today a
number of irate stockholders in the
Cash Boy have called at The News
Office and denounced the watering
of the stock" in unmeasured terms,
claiming that it was sharp practice
on the part of the directors. Some
of the shareholders stated that they
had wired their certificates to Sar
Francisco with instruction to realize
on the paper at any price.
''The effect Of the unloading was
noticeable today when Cash Boy
went off three points, but was vel
sustained at % cents, a figure much
higher than 1t was sold for in many
months, with the exception of the
furry Of a weeE ago.
"There has been considerable talk
Of testing Ire legality Of the increase
on capitalization, some of the visitors

capitalization is doubled every share.

Although Secretary Humphrey il
