WILL BEGIN OPERATIONS.
Cedar Company to Go After Ore Close
to the Talisman Bonanza.

About ninety DAYS ago the Cedar
Mining company was organized to Op-
crate properties lying on either side of
the famous Talisman, which has been
placed in shape for steady production
during the last few months by ? 3
MckeOn, manager. Tomorrow night
Messrs. John A Hunt and Herman
Barnett, president and secretary of the
Cedar company. will leave for camp for
the purpose of deciding on a campaign
of development at that COmpany's
ground. Money with which to see the
proposition through is already In the
treasury and work viii be commenced
during the next few days
The distance separating the Talisman
shaft from one that has been sunk
nearly 100 feet on Cedar ground, is only
q few hundred feet and. as the ledge
that has made the Talisman a rich
mine Is known to run through the Ce-
dar company's property, ore will soon
be stT106. AS a matter Of fact. the
is confident of being able
to ship fine Gre within ninety DAYS
after work Is started, as the bottom of
the shaft is only a short distance from
the point where the ledge is expected
TO be encountered. After the ground
is proven I'D on the one side Of the
TalismaH, the management expects 10

opposite side, where equally good re-
suits are ANTICIPATED

SACRAMENTO is PROSPEROUS.
Dividend Is Posted-Produetion o
Quicksilver to Be Increased.

A dividend Of 5000 or 1kc a share on
the caDitaI stock of the Sacramento
Gold Mining company was posted yes
terday for payment on the first of the
coming month. and there is every rea-
son to believe that the entire year will
go through with a similar payment
monthly.
The company's production of quick
silver is now just about the equivalent
of the dividends that are being paid
and. as great body Of mercuriaI ore has
been opened I'D for extraction in the
mine the output of this product during
the year is ant to be increase rather
than diminished, particularly as the
management is now figuring on the ad-
dition of several more retOr-s
At the same time the milling Of gold
ores IS going steadily for u and con-
siderably more than the entire cost of
operating, including new development
work, is being met from the production
of gold-bearing cyanides. There has
never been a time in the history of the
Sacramento when the future looked as
full Of promise as it does today The
dividend rate which the mine is now
in shape to easily maintain for an in
definite period is equivalent to about
40 per cent of the market value of the
cOmpany's shares. Six cents a year on
14C stock is not so bad.

ARROW MINING COMPANY.
Something of the Property That Has
Caused Rush to Indian Springs.

Information has been coming from
the Indian Springs country, forty-five
miles northwest of Las Vegas, regard
ing strikes that have been made there
and mention has been made of the
property that has caused the influx of
prospectorS-the Southeastern group.
This property belongs to the Arrow
Mining company of Salt Lake, and is
Hunt and associates. The ground was
secured about two years ago and since
that time four of the six claims have
been patented. The company also
owns Summit springs, ten miles north
of the mines, and one of these days the
water viii be piped into camp. In q
4OO-foot tunnel a shoot of ore over 100
feet in length has been developed and
shipments from the property to the
smelters of this valley Will begin Just
as soon as the branch of the Salt Lake
Route, nov practically completed from
Las Vegas to Indian Springs, is ready
to receive freight from that point From
Indian Springs to the Arrow property
is between twenty-five and thirty
miles, but the read is a good one and
the reduction of distance made posi-
bic by the railroad will result in the
company getting right down to bust
ness within the next couple of weeks,
as the ore is all higp-grade, the values
being distributed Between the four
metals-copper, silver, lead and gold.
John A. Hunt will leave for ca
some time during the coming week to
get the seasons campaign under way.

+ E Meyer Of the Federal company,
who has been east rustling money with
which TO keep things moving at camp, is
back home after most successful mis-
sien.
Alex Goliath returned from several
days trip in the country west of Frisco,
in Beaver county, yesterday morning. He
states that considerable snow fell in that
region during the few days he was away,
but it melted about as fast as it fell
Manager Lafayette Hanchett returned
from trip to the Cactus yesterday morn
ing. He says the big steam shovel is rap
idly ripping the coverings off the big ore
deposit that crops to within z few feet
of the surface, and it will not be long till
mining begins there.

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.

shows the transfer of &c, 676 shares more,
while the selling value was also greater
by 81, $50. IS.
Nearly all active stocks have advanced
in price and it has been a noticeable fact
that the market was strong enough to
absorb al, offerings without causing a
break The market has been gradually
and safely broadening and an offering of
500 or 1000 shares Of low priced stock
no longer has the effect that IT did a few
months ago.
A comparison of what a few Of the
stocks have done during the week will
give q general and approximate idea OF
the performances of nine-tenths of the
active traders. Ajax has moved up from
29c to 90izc Carisa is &c higher at 301zc

Silver Shield and a few others in which
business has been light prices have not
changed much, but, with the single excep-
ton of Star ConsoIi1 nted. which is a lit

Little Bell, Columbus Consolidated

Of Little Bell and Columbus Consolidated
