NEVADA HILLS
BIG DIVIDEND
Shareholders Will Pull Down
Another SIS, 900 During
the Present Month.

w. V. Rice, treasurer of the Nevada
Hills company, authorized the statement
yesterday that the usual quarterly divi-
dend of ten cents a share, or $4,000. would
be paid by the company during the pres
ent month. This is the third dividend in
like amount by this year-old company.
The books will close on the 18th and
payment will follow on the 10Th.
Word from camp is to the effect that
the recent strike by the leasing company
on the Nevada Hills ground, about 600 or
fO0 feet east of the developed portion of
the property, is turning out big. There is
now exposed over ten feet of ore that will
sack, without sorting, better than 500 per
ton, and it now begins to look as though
this would prove the richest portion of
that phenomenal property. 1t means that
the ledge is loaded with rich ore for 600
or 200 feet in an easterly direction from
where operations are now being carried
on by the Nevada Hills company, and
gives the mine value altogether beyond
calculation at this stage of development.
We are not at all troubled as to where
the ore is coming from for the future,
declared Mr.. Rice, but we do admit that
the transportation problem is a serious
one. We had hoped to see the railroad ex-
tended to camp by this time, but it is
evident that we shall have to wait for
that a while yet. We are affOrding en-
pioyment to as many teams as it is posi-
bic to secure and supplying them with all
the ore they can handle, and that with out
touching the reserves in the mine"

ANOTHER CROWD BUYS
INTO YERINGT0N CAMP

Charles T. Stevenson, an old-time engi-
neer of this city, but who now claims
Reno as his home. is in town on mining
business. Mr.. Stevenson has been put
ting in q good deal of time in the Yering
ton district familiariZing himeslf with the
formation and naturalization of the camp.
This investigation has eliminated in the
purchase of twelve claims and the loca-
tion Of five more, adjoining. by himself
William NJ. Bradley and A. Hanauer, jr,
of this city and some California men. The
syndicate which has taken over the
ground is a small but prominent one and
the purpose is TO develop the ground
without organizing a company, at least
for the present.
Il have secured" said Mr.. Stevenson
yesterday. what appears to have all the
earmarks of the making of a mine. I am
old enough at the business, of course, to
appreciate that every promising prospect
does not make a mine. But when the for
nation is right and the mineral is to be
found where il ought TO be at the sur
face, the best that anybody can do is go
ahead and prospect the ground: that is
what we are going to do and I believe
that we shall not fail in making a mine.
Our claims are located in what is known
as the Churchill canyon, about two miles
west of the Yerington-Ironsides. The for
nation is lime with strong intrusions of
porphyry and iron blow-outs. Characters
tic of the Mason mining district and the
tried out I expect will carry good values
in copper. We have an abundance of wa
ter and timber on our claims and in this
respect we have the best of great many
of the operators and claim owners in that
region"

COPPER STOCKS IN
BOSTON AND NEW YORK

Following is the daily market comment
of Paine. Weber & Co., Boston, together
with the range of prices of copper stocks
and other Boston Istings in which the
west is interested, as well as a similar
report on New York curb transactions, a
feature that has just been added by
James A. Pollock a Co to it's private
wire service. and from which it is secured
for use in this department of The Herald.
Boston. June 1--WE find a little better
feeling is developing. If it continues we
think stocks will rally few points. The
Mohawk dividend fell flat and after the
first quick jump, stock came out freely
and the close was weak at Sfiz. There has
been considerable weak buying of the
stock on the prospect of this dividend,
and we expect this stock to come c.t
now and with the very limited demand at
present it will decline close ID 80. We
find we are being criticised for writing
bearish gossip, but the only idea is TO
give as close a view as possible 20 our
customers of the conditions as they exist
on the floor of the exchange. These
opinions are based on the situation as
we see ii from cay to day.

BIG COPPER PRODUCERS
MAY SELL AT LESS PRICE

Quoting the Boston News Bureau, in q
message over the Pollock private wires
yesterday, ''the president of a leading
copper producer is made to say:
Il anticipate that the leading copper
interests will compromise with the big
consumers of metal and reduce prices
few cents per pound possibly to 23c for
electrolytic brands and 231kc for lake, and
the next big Calumet sales will be affect
ed on the basis of 24c-
This is not bear point on copper
shares. as such action will insure enor-
nous earnings to the companies this year
and copper stocks have already discount
ed a big decline in the metal and are al
ready selling on a basis of about 16-cent
copper, while many copper stocks are now
selling lower than when the metal was
Il cents per pound.
81 believe that the price of metal could
decline to IS cents per pound without az
fecting the dividends now. being paid py
the copper companies. No company Is
paving dividends on the basis of receiving
g cents per pound for the metal

CACTUS OUTPUT
AND DIVIDENDS
Mays Product Carried Well
Over 100000 Pounds of
the Red Metal.
DISTRIBUTION FOR JULY
LOCAL SPECULATION ON CON-
PANY's POSSIBILITIES.
DISTRIBUTION FOR JULY

1t comes from a source that ought to
be perfectly reliable that the production
of copper by the Cactus during the month
of May aggregated approximately 1,Ol5,VOO
pounds, while the gold and silver contents
In the ore was worth in the neighborhood
of Sex, 900. That means that the property
produced something like 5000 pounds
more copper than was admitted for the
April run. This showing and recent state
ments of President Samuel Newhouse
have caused local operators TO scent
dividend, the initial distribution OF the
company, next month
At the present rate OF production and
with the price of copper at 20 cents or
better, it is figured by local oracles that
the Newhouse company can maintain div
1dends at the rate OF 50 per share per an
mum, or 70 cents share per quarter, and
at the same time add materially TO the
sinking fund for bond redemption. 1t is
declared that \ dividend of 20 cents
share can be paid in July and that sur
plus of more than quarter OF million
viii remain after the sum mentioned is
checked out; that 50 a year can be paid
and 81 year, or $4,000, can be added to
the reserves
This is ali figured on the present per-
formances of the property. No allowance
is made for increased output of crude ore,
nor enlarged milling operations, both OF
which are just as sure to be carried into
effect as il is sure that the mine is now
earning in excess of the figures quoted.
Nearly three months ago one of the most
competent engineers Of this city exam
local investors and reported that there
was over $50 a share in sight in the mine;
that 1t would require, at the present rate
of production, eight years to exhaust the
ores then in sight and capable of being
accurately measured up. Since then the
known tonnage has been greatly added to
and, before the present year Is at an end,
enough new development work and suffi-
cient additional depth will have been ac-
Quired to make it certain that the esti-
mates of ninety days ago are entitled to
a doubling up
In addition to this it may be stated that
right now the milling capacity of the
magnificent plant at the mine Is being in
creased from 200 to LEO tons a day, so
that, by the time the initial dividend is
declared the company will be in a posi-
ton to make it's net earnings not less
than S. a share per annum. Ample water
is available for this purpose and pumps
TO handle it are now being installed at the
mill.
Dividends of 50 a share mean 10 per cent
on $50 stock; it means % per cent on the
par value of the shares and, with ore
enough blocked out to keep that up for
eight years, without reference to in
creased reserves and double earning ca
paCity, which is sure to be brought about
by the end of the present year, it seems
ridiculous that NeWhouse stock should be
selling for less than $50 a share.

FINE LEAD ORE STRIKE
IN GREENWATER CAMP

Greenwater, Cal, June 6.-An enormous
iron deposit has been discovered in the
Rhodes Springs section on the ground
of the Greenwater Bonanza company, con-
troll of which is held by ]. Irving Crowell,
George Franklin, Ed. Cready and c. W.
Patrick, all of Greenwater. Mr.. Patrick
visited the strike last week and stated
that the surface showing at the new lead
strike is remarkable. 1t consists of a big
iron-stained quartz dyke on a lime and
pOrphyry contact which is from so to 100
feet wide In some places the lead raises
from the surface from twenty-five to
thirty feet high. A pay streak four feet
wide in the dyke runs better than $50 per
ton in lead. with small values in gold and
silver
Messrs CroweII & Franklin are working
twelve men. all engaged breaking down
the ledge and sacking ore. A carload is
now being hauled out for shipment to
the Salt Lake smelter. 1t is estimated by
the management of the Bonanza property
that there is at least 500. 600 worth of ore
in sight on top of the ground and they
propose to make regular shipments of ore
averaging $50 a ton. The strike is said
to bear every surface indication of an
other big bonanza.
