Troubles from Tonopah.

Tonopah, New, Aug 2O.--A long dis
lance message from Goldfield says:
The Goldfeld Florence Mining com
pany, yesterday, enjoned the Little
Florence Leasing company from fur
Their work. The Little Florence is the
lease which has been making sensation
al strikes and paying big dividends. 1t
is claimed by the Goldfield Florence
people that the lesses are not sticking
to the terms of the lease that they
are careless in their work, endangering
the timbers and floors and are getting
their richest ores outside their ground.
Today an underground survey will be
made on the lease and possibly some
arrangement will then be made for
storing the ore until Judge Isangnn,
at present absent, returns and decides
the case"
Another long distance message from
Goldheld says the miners on the Mo-
hawk are still out and there are re-
ports to the effect that the men on
Red Top and Combination mines may
follow. There viii be a meeting of
Western Federation of Miners tonight
when the matter will be taken up and
decided The general impression is
that the settlement will be satisfac-
torily arranged.

The Cinnamon Consolidated Copper

Cuts Little Figure in the Actual Vaiu-
ation of Securities.

The question OF the par value of stock
Is being discussed in quite number
of mining and financial papers through
out the east and west, says the Mining
Review, and, in number OF cases,
the decision has been that the par value
attached to securities OF various kinds
have but little significance, If any. A
company, for instance, Is incorporated
with a capitalization OF a million shares
of a par value OF 81 each. This looks
well and sounds Well; but as a matter
of fact, the real value of the shares
of the company may be 30 cents or
$50, the par value having no relation,
whatever. to its actual value.
This being the case, IL has been sug-
gested that, in the incorporation OF a
company, the number of shares, only,
be stated. leaving the matter of value
To be established by what the shares
Win actually bring in the market,
which, i'm most instances, would be
what the stock Would be actually
worth.
II is often the case that stock with a
par value OF 81 a share is sold at 10
ceuts "A share. This ~ all that II is
worth, and perhaps more, and the fact
that lis par value Ia more adds no val
nc beyond its actual selling value, and
Tho further fact that the capitalization
rs placod at a certain figure fails to
give additional merit to tho stock OF tho
company. Unless the earnings of a
company, its dividend payments, VIII
Yield n percentage OF prolt TO tne
shoreholder equal TO the par value of
his stock. the stock is not worth the
valuation that the company has placed
unon it. The capitalization, then, is
represented IN so many dollars or cents
Is something that ia only imaginary
and is Of no real benefit only 50 far as
II facilitates corporation hookkeeplne
and the limitation of personal liability
of Individual stockholders.
W. believe that the time VIII come
when tho par value OF stock Will be
eliminated when the articles Of incor-
porntion are hled, and that the trno
Value Of stock win be regulated by
market quotations.

Very Gratifying Reports Are Be-

Noted Producer.
WALKER VISITS PROPERTY.
II Railway Supplies Cars This Years
Production viii Equal That
OF Last Year.

1t is gratifying to note the excellent
reports that are being received from
the Utah Consolidated mine in Bling
ham. A party who visited this prop
erty recently makes the statement that
developments made there within the
past 60 days have materially increased
the ore reserves and. in fact. has pro-
longed the life of the property several
years.
George L. Walker the Boston copper
authority aud financial editor, was a
guest Of the management yesterday,
and II Is reported that he came out Of
the mine very well pleased, indeed,
with its present condition.
Utah Consolidated has received some
pretty hard knocks in the eastern stock
markets and many shareholders nave
been frightened into sacrincing their
holdings in the company before aseer-
tanning what the actual conditions at
the mine really We're.
The only thing that stands in the way
of Utah Consolidated pulling out at the
end of the year with record OF produc-
ton equal to that of last year In pounds
of copper is the railroad service, II
the railroad company furnishes the cars
and there is no setback on account
of coal shortage, the showing that the
Utah Consolidated viii make should
satisfy every shareholder. This talk
INDUCED in of late to the effect that
the mine had seen its best days is all
idle talk 1t was never in a more
promising condition than 1t is at this
very moment and no better evidence of
this is needed than the assurance OF
the management that the plans for the
building of the proposed new smelter
will be carried out in the near future
No mining company in Utah Is in
better shape to make improvements
than the Utah Consolidated, for 1t has
been learned from eastern sources that
the treasury contains something over
81, 100000. With that much money on
hand, with the mine producing right

over that section of country and claims
that copper deposits exist there that
will put Ely or any other Nevada camp
far in the shade. He brought many
samples with him to show his many
friends the character of ore being un-
covered.
Norman McLane. who had charge of
he West Quincy during the season of
active operations there, was in camp
last Sunday and spent the day at the

view to resuming work in the near flu
