YANKEE co. DICKERING
FOR MORE TERRITORY

At a special meeting of the Yankee Con-
SOnqated company. which was convened
W ednesday and adjourned until yesterday
afternoon, the proposition to increase the
capital stock of the corporation for the
purpose of buying the Mountain View and
Lake View properties from John Z. Du
Bots was considered.
Representatives of Mr.. Du Bots, who
owns A per cent of the Yankee Con-
solidated, stated that he was willing to
turn over the properties if the company
would double its capitalization and give
him the extra 500 600 shares. During the
discussion that followed it developed that
outside holders were opposed to paying
any such price; that they would be will
ing to increase the capital of the Yam
kee company by $4,000 and pay that for
the claims, if Mr.. Du Bots would turn
into the Yankee treasury the 200 in the
Mountain View treasury, with the under
standing that the Yankee should hold in
reserve twice that amount and pay the
balance out in the form of a dividend
to the present shareholders of the Yam
kee Consolidated before the increase in
capital was made. As the Yankee COM
pany is said to have about $4,000 on
hand. this would permit of the distribu-
ton of cents a share al least.
A motion finally prevailed that a COM
mittee be named to present the sharehold-
ers' proposition to Mr.. Du Bots and re-
port at the regular annual meeting of the
Yankee company about the end of next
month. J. w. Merrill, 3. n. Lehman and
H. c. Edwards were named as the COM
mittee, and the meeting adjourned.

UTAH CON. SHELTER SMOKE
Farmers May Permit Valley Plant to
Run Till New Works Are Built.

The farmers have held a conference
on the smelter smoke proposition SO
far as it affects the Utah Consolidated
company and they have instructed
their executive committee to negotiate
and close a deal with the smelter man
agement permitting the plant to oper-
ate until the new smelter, I'm Tooele
county, can be built. To be more ex-
plicit it is proposed to allow the smell
ter to run for fourteen months from
the first of next month.
At the meeting it was pointed out
that the smelter company would ap-
peal its case to the supreme court of
the United States if something was not
done, and that was what probably de-
termined the farmers to agree that
for consideration in coin, the smelter
might be allowed to continue i'm oper-
alton. Some of the farmers thought
they ought to have $500, 900 for the priv
ilege, but the matter was finally left
10 the committee.
Manager ]. B. Risque of the Utah
Consolidated company stated yester-
day afternoon that he had INQUIRED as
to when the committee would be ready
to take the matter up with him. He
was informed that the chairman was
out of town for few days and that
the committee preferred to wait until
his return. 1t now seems probable that
an agreement Will be reached and that
the Utah Consolidated works will con-
tinue to do business, the court acquies-
cling, until the new works on the Stock
ton side of the range is built
John HOwells, who lives just below

ASSESSMENT FOR 1907
MUST BE PERFORMED
Especial to The Herald.)

Washington, D. c., Dec. Ex-senator
DICK, chairman of the senate committee
on mines and mining, has decided that
his committee will hold no meetings un-
til after the reassembling of congress
after the holidays.
This will make 1t impossible to secure
the passage of the bills introduced by
Senators Teller and Borah providing
that mining claims shall not be for
feited through failure of entrymen to
perform required assessment work upon
them during the year 1907. One of the
essential provisions of the proposed
legislation is that those taking advan-
tage of it should file declaration prior
to January l, 1903, of their intentions to
retain their claims

UTAH COPPER COMPANY
NOT TO CURTAIL OUTPUT

Following the inspection of the mines
and milling plants of the company at
the hands of A Chester Beatty, con-
sulting engineer, there was a general
conference of the officials at the Utah
Copper companys offices yesterday
forenoon. Present were President
Charles NJ. MacNeill, Secretary Treas
urer Spencer Penrose, General Counsel
K. R. Babbitt. General Manager d. c..
lacking and Mr.. Beatty.
During the conference Manager jack
ling left the room long enough to say
that nothing but routine business at
fairs were being considered; that the
object was to finish up in order that
Mr. Beatty might continue his journey
east by catching the Los Angeles Linn
tied before l o'clock.
Speaking for President MacNeill and
the entire mana cement of the COM
pany Manager lacking stated that
there was absolutely no ground for the
story from the east to the effect that
the Utah Copper company had been
requested to curtail it's production of
copper by the American Metals Selling
company or anybody else, and that his
company had no thought of doing any
thing of the kind.
ION the contrary" said Mr.. lacking,
II can say that we shall begin increas-
ing the production of our mines tomor-
row morning by placing the eighth Sec
ton of the new Garfield mill in COM
mission. At the present price of cop
per we are making a very satisfactory
profit and you may say that we have
no idea of doing other than gradually
increasing the rate of production to the
full limit of both mills just as fast
as conditions will permit. The COM
pany's properties are being operated for
the benefit of the Utah Copper COM
pany and not for metal selling agen-
cies anywhere. 1t will continue to op-
crate in that way all the time"

 My dear MT.

 In October I go to the States on a lecture tour. and if every thing goes well, as I hope 1t may. l will take a trip to Nome in the summer of 1908, in order to shake hands with my many friends there.
