COLORADO IS NEAR
ITS FIRST DIVIDEND
Present Earnings of Company
Will Justify Profit Shar-
ing Very Soon.

J. Fewson Smith, the United States
company's expert, has returned from an
observation visit 10 the Colorado Min
ing and the Beck Tunnel properties of
Tintc, and he stated to The Tribune
yesterday that everything pointed TO
the Colorado being the next Tintic prop
osition to Join the dividend paying list
Of that splendid camp. The present
shipments, the fact that this Jesse
Knight mine is out Of debt, and the
present ore developments all lead him
to expect the initial proft-sharing to
take place within the next thirty to
forty days Mr.. Smith spoke highly
Of the Colorado, and deems it one of
tic.
He states that the Colorado has not
yet tapped the ore on the 300-foot level,
but from the fact that the trend of the
body has been shown above, sufficient
data is available to establish that a
short drift only will be necessary to
reach the resources on the 800. On the
250-foot level the ore chute has been
developed 10 n vertical height of forty
feet, and for horizontal distance of
100 feet. The ore bins now contain
fully 300 tons, and on Saturday last
the bad roads season apparently ended
for the company, as shipments were
started on the way to the smclters. Mr..
Smith states that the ore is the same
as found 1000 feet away by the Beck
Tunnel, and he thinks it will prove
equally as rich when marketed.
The Beck Tunnel, he states, is con-
gested with ore. Hundreds of tons of
high grade are awaiting shipment. This
rock not only is very rich, but 80 easily
broken that two shifts of ten miners
enable the company to pay $4,000

BOSTON CON. VERY
NEAR A DIVIDEND
Important Conference in East
Thought to Bear Upon
Profit Sharing.
COMPANY NOW Is
MAKING BIG MONEY
Crude Ore Shipments Literally
Provide Funds for the
Company Purse.

There is a very important conference
taking place in New York City between
the officials of the Boston Consolidated
company, and those who keep closely
IN touch with the affairs of copper
producers generally are promo to proph-
esy some highly significant develop
ments as a result Of this combing over
the affairs of this great Utah red metal
producer Samuel Newhouse, president,
has Just arrived in New York from Eri-
rope, and he was Joined there Wcdncs.
day by Manager Lafayette Hanchett
and other officials of the organization.
While what is being transacted In these
conferences is at best mere conjecture,
the matters being discussed here. in re-
gard to the same, are Of interest
Some seem 10 see n dividend in the
near future. The company over
year ago had Il quarter of a million dol.
lars IN the treasury. Since that time
ly, there must be at least million
dollars IN the strong box now. The
company is making splendid shipments
of crude ore at this time, and thc ex-
penscs of constructing the new Garfield
concentrating plant have been provided
for by the bond issue Of 1905, and it has
been stated that there will be no furth.
er need for raising additional funds
for this purpose,
The capitalization of the Boston Con
sohdated company is $4,000 shares, of
q par value of El, or S5, each.
The capitalization was lifted to this cx-
tent IN August of 1905 in order to raise
the funds for building the Garfield mill.
These bonds, bearing six per cent in
torest, are TO run for five years from
date. when they arc redecmable at six
months notice or convertible into
shares on basis of 60, or $40.
There is no question, therefore. but
what the bondholders will prefer to con
vert their bonds into stock on basis
of $40, when the stock is selling some
thing like S25 today While these bonds
have not been converted as vet, the
company considers them as such. for
the entire capitalization of 625 900
shares is considered as issued
Nothing seems to stand in the way Of
dividends, therefore. and the declara-
ton of one would not create surprise.
The present earning capacity Of the
company is much greater than generally
thought, and not dependent entirely up
on the completion and operation Of the
new Garfield plant. 1t is very clearly
established that the company is send
ing out something like 500 tons of
crude ore day This is said to net
The company $40 per ton, making the
present earnings range around S2,SS0,-
700 per year. Add to this, say one
year from today. the earnings Of the
new mill, s2,7O0,000 per year, and we
nave a total earning capacity Of $5,-
100000 per year, or about 50 per share.
Such figures, and they are facts, show
now extensively this great Bingham
nlne will reward its stockholders. 1t

lend is within easy reach.

RATHER GROUND IS
CENTER OF INTEREST
Utahns Score Another Success
In Rosebud District of
Humboldt County.

The latest attraction at the Rose.
bud camp, like the camp itself is due
to the talent from Salt Lake that
knows how to acquire. what TO acquire,
and how to handle a mining property
after its acquisition. The Rosebud
Rattlcr company is the point Of inter
ests now, for recent showings have
clearly demonstrated the property TO
he among the leaders of that section.
Lewis A. Jefrs and ], II. McCrystal,
both officials in the Rather company,
during their recent visit to the mine
were surprised at the group and its pos
sibilitics, and Mr.. Jeffs stated Wedncs-
day that the Rattler was n mine.
On the Lookout claim there is huge
cropping rearing twenty feet above the
surrounding surface. In this was found
few DAYS ago four feet Of orc that
shows splendid ruby and horn sill
yer identical in character with that
on the Brown Palace property, From
two To three feet in addition runs
very much on the order of the White
Alps ore. Samples taken from the crop.
pings, which average fifteen feet in
width, were assaycd Wednesday, and
the returns showed silver present from
374 to $3.50 ounces, and gold from
$3.50 to $3.50 To the ton. From the
Rattlcr claim. another part of the com
pany's group, samples ran II ounces
silver and $50 gold. Mr., Jeffs stated
that the company will drive a short and
shallow tunnel into this ledge, more
with the idea of locating 1t definite
ly than from n permanent working
standpoint, as eventually the real de-
velopment work for big results must
come from a shaft.
Mr.. Jeffs states that the camp gen
orally is active and being rewarded
with results. The Dreamland company
is drifting on tho seventy foot
level for a parallel vein to the Rattler,
and in so doing is sacking $500
rock for shipment to market. The
Brown Palace company is working a
large force of men in driving the
tunnel and in trenching. The White
Alps is very busy, and is turning out
some fine results wherever work is
done. The Pawhattan is turning day.
light into north and south vein, and
the Golden Anchor is sinking in
porphyry, country rock, yet getting
values from the same. The Sunrise
is preparing TO get down to
hard pan, as tho Pawhattan is working
within thirty feet of the Sunrise side
line on a vein to be explored by the
