The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1907-06-15

MS
the following companies Of which we
should like fuller Information;
Fern Clin mine. White Horse district
Kawich-Bullfrog Mining Co, A. ID. Biner
NJ. & NJ. Co, property supposed TO De
near Ida. Midway Standardization,
said to have properties at Cuprite,
Montgomery Quartette, Builfrog. Great
Ben Twin, Lea Bell. near Rhyolite; Free
Trade Goldheld, said to be 20 miles east
of Goldfeld.
II. J. T., Bayonns, u. Y.-The adver-
tisement which you enclose OF the
Goldheld Somerset Mining Company
does not name the lain or the exact
location of the ground claimed, ana
hence we can give no very satisfactory
information. We are always suspicious
of a company that advertises owning
and operating" properties in the heart
of the phenomenally rich Goldheld dis
trict'' without naming the claims. THE
Rich Somerset Mining property which
the company claims to own ought to be
on the map, especially IL in the heart
of the rich Goldheld district" The
property of Central Tonopah and Gold
field Mining Company, which 1t has
absorbed" we know nothing about.
Some time ago Wisner & Co., were put
ting out stock on the United Tonopah
and Goldfeld Mines company" which
claimed to own the great Freedom
mine" and 1t is possible that 1t is this
property that has been absorbed" This
latter claim, the Freedom. does not
appear upon Chutes' latest map. which
is supposed to contain all the sur
veyed claims in the district. The COM
pany also claims to own ground in Tono-
pah but does not give the names of the
claims, as in the case of Goldfield. We
should like more light on the subject.
H, T., Milwaukee.-The Nevada Queen
Mines company Is capitalized at 1,500.-
600. 81 shares. President, ]. o. Buckley.
vice-president, II. r. Buckley. secretary
and treasurer, Thomas L. Somers,
Plankinton Building, Milwaukee. con-
sulting engineer, Donald Ferguson,
Goldfeld. Company owns Queen group
of So acres, sections s and 4, and Congo
group of 90 acres, section .. Goldfield
district. These groups show large and
well defined veins, development is pro-
crossing with good results; a force or
men are now driving the Congo tunnel,
which will cut thirty veins in its
course of $500 feet on the company's
ground, according to survey, at over
500 feet below the surface. This is
considered by engineers among the most
important development being done in
the Goldfeld district and big results
are expected. The company's titles are
complete, patents applied for. no debts.
and $4,000 cash in treasury.
San xrancisco.-The largest hotels
completed and doing business are the
Casey, Brown Palace. Esmeralda. San
Carlos, Grimshaw, Merchants and sew
eral smaller hotels. Two large hotels are
in course of construction, one the Gold
field, is to cost s250,00o. Just address
proper destination.
r.. H. A., Columbus, Both the COM
panies of which you ask, are at work.,
but neither has got ore. The Mohawk
Leasing Syndicate holds the last lease
on the Mohawk, nearest Columbia Mt.
Shaft down $50 to 24O feet. Lease has
been shut down since the general shut
down and is just opening ~.
=, l., Indianapolis.-Afraid the COM
pany of which you speak has gone out
of business. 1t was a promotion of the
Union Securities Company. DIR. Lyman.
who skipped out some time ago after a
meteoric career. He came to Goldfield
from New York, put out two or three
promotions in rapid fire time and then
decamped leaving numerous creditors.
1t is said that Lyman has recently come
into a large amount of money through
the death of an uncle. The latter left
nothing to Lyman's creditors. sad to
relate.
A. J. g.. San Francisco.-The Skookum
group of claims is in the Montezuma
district, several miles west of Goldfield.
No work has been done on them to
speak of and the value of the ground
is entirely conjectural. They lie near
the Sassy Sal, as their literature claims,
but this does not mean much, as little
work has been dome on the latter claims
and nothing found of consequence. In
fact the promoters of the Sassy Sal
seem to have abandoned their property.
1t is believed, however, that intelligent
development work will produce some
mines at Montezuma and the district
has many staunch friends.
A. K, Chicago.-The Goldfeld Solic-
itor Company is one of the numerous
companies organized to lease in this
camp. 1t has a lease on the Talmage
No. .. on Vindicator Mt. and work on
the lease is being vigorously and intelli-
gently pushed. under the supervision
OF u. w. nays, one VI ~ pcSt hhiAhS
men of the camp. Thu shaft is dow
100 feet and a contract let for so feet
additional. 1t will be sunk to the 200
foot point before prosecuting. In the
first 100 feet, 8 small veins were cut
from " to 3 feet which CAV small as
says. Depth is required In this section.
The money seems to be economically
and wisely expended in the work that
has been done. !
"Eastsrner."-Can give you no salts
factory information on the Goldf1eld
Gem. Neither the company or its prop
critics Is indexed on Chutes' new map.
Our Handbook of Nevada Mines says
the company owns Augusta Fraction
and Damon group. If the Augusta
Fraction Is near the Combination" as
you say, 1t must be a small fraction. At
any rate we are pretty sure the COM
pany Is not working its property.
D. D., soldiers Nome, Quincy, H.
Neither the Goldheld Noble nor Heart
of Goldield is working. al express
no opinion on the merits Of the property.
not enough work lone. Properties in
east and northeast parts of district.
Understand there is d~issention in COM
pany and nothing doing.
J. y. T., fulton, No.-Know nothing
of the Faron Mining Co. Give US a
clue and we will look 1t up.
