NEVADA MINES PAY BIG
SUMS IN DIVIDENDS
Consolidated Has Surplus on Hand
and May Continue Disburse-
ments for Some Time
to Come
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
GoLDFTELD, New. Nov, 25.-Three mines
paid dividends today. The Red Top, at 10 cents
per share, amounta to sS5,45O; the Mohawk, at
80 cents, amounts to s21s,OOO. and the consol-
.dated at 10 cents to s36o.OOO.
The greater part of the Red Top and Mo-
hawk distribution gees to the Consolidated COM
pany which owns practically all of the stock
The directors oS the Consolidated met To-Day,
but adjourned without transacting any busi-
ness until Wednesday, at which time the mat
ter of future dividends and other things which
vitally affect the future conduct of the prop
erty will be discussed. At this meeting the
new manager, Nj. Mackenzie, who has been
ousy getting acquainted underground, VIII
make a report as to the conditions. 1t is un-
derstood the directors will consider at the
Wednesday meetins the immediate construction
of a mill Of large capacity
Vice President George Wingfield said: THE
company has sufficient surplus of funds to
continue paving dividends without shipping any
more ore for the present. L cannot say what
action will be taken in the matter of further
distributions until the meeting OF directors.
The company has ceased shipping to the
smelters and is treating about 105 tons day
at the Cont nation and Kinkead mills, which
is not sufficient to pay 1O-cent monthly divl-
dends The Mohawk, however, has been
heavy shipper for the past three months and
has also earned considerable money from roy
aties.
The Consolidated. counting the Mohawk
treasury, tne greater part VI MuiOh pSioh6s ~
that company through its holdings OF stock,
has heavy surplus, enough probably to pay
10 cents q share each month for half a year
to come. The Combination mill is earning
about $4,000 month, and the Kinkead mill.
which is running on Red Top ore, probably
about $4,000 month
The smelter situation, however. looks very
unpromsing. and 1t will require the better
part of year for the company TO get its re-
duction works installed Considering these
conditions It seems probable that the directors
will decide to pass the dividends for the time
being.
