For q moment French looked at him

Butte, Mont, Oct. /, 19O7.-To
the Stockholders of the Barnes King
Development company: At special
meeting of the stockholders of the
BarnesKing Development company,
held August q, 1907, the following
directors and officers were elected:
John Gillie, president, Butte, Mont ;
Charles Goodale, vice president,
Butte, Mont; Julian NJ. Gerard, vice
president, New York, N. Y; L. o.
Evans, secretary, Butte, Mont; d. ].
Hennessy, Butte, Mont; Joseph H.
Case, Butte, Mont; Thomas S. Dee,
Boston, Mass; J. c. Lalor, New
York, N. y.
"At the same meeting C. C. Swim
borne of Butte, Mont, was elected
treasurer, and c. D. Draper of New
York City, assistant secretary and
treasurer. The president and vice
president made personal inspec-
ton of the property of the company
during the week ending September
%, 1907, and found the conditions as
follows:
"The developed reserves of payable
ore do not exceed $4,000 tons, includ
ing the Santiago ore body, and from
what probable profit of 81 per ton
or $4,000 may be realized. Under
these circumstances, dividends can
not be expected in the near future.
"A three-compartment shaft called
the Santiago had been started during
the present year within $50 feet Of
the south boundary of the property
and had reached depth Of 200 feet.
The necessity for this shaft was not
apparent and all work on it was dis
continued September 27. The orig
inal Barnes-King shaft, while small
and unsuited for large tonnage, is
well located and will cover the re-
quirements until very much more ore
is discovered and developed.
"The mill is treating about l80
tons of ore per day; of this 40 tons
are coming from the north end,
known as the mule shoe and horse
shoe workings This ore is of such
a grade that it barely pays for ex-
traction and milling, but is being
mined as development measure,
with possibility of some of the
openings leading into larger and
more profitable ore bodies.
"The South end open cut is pro-
ducing 80 tons per day of a fair
grade of ore, but these workings are
caved and wrecked SO that the handl-
ing Of the ore ic expensive The
amount of available ore in this To-
cality is so uncertain that it would
be an unwise policy to make the nee
essary expenditures for proper mining
methods
'"The principal supply Of ore is
coming in the Santiago workings
This ore body has a general east and
west strike and dips southerly out
of the south boundary Of the prop
erty. There are several pillars Of
