BINGHAM NEW HAVEN
DIVIDEND is PAID

Local shareholders are in receipt of
dividend checks from the head offices
Of the Bingham-NeW Haven company for
10 cents a share. OF its 400. 900 shares of
capital stock the Binsham-New Haven
company has issued only 226.OO shares SO
the dividend calls for the disbursement of
so. eco. Last year the company paid -
cents share and ii is evident that the
directors are counting on paying a like
amount this year.
The Bingham-NeW Haven is one of the
cleanest cut propositions in the Bingham
camp and, while very little is ever said
about II, it is known that the mine IS
opening up splendidly under the energetic
management of c. II. Doolittle and that
with all the dead work, OUTLAWS for ma
chinery, mine equipment and the building
of an aerial tramway. the mine is meeting
all cost paying a substantial dividend and
building up a fine reserve fund at the
same time.

NEVADA HILLS READY
TO SHIP BIG TONNAGE

John T Hodson of the Nevada Hills
who arrived here this week, and spent
two days looking over the camp, gave
out some interesting statements regard
ing the present output of the big mine,
and also some facts regarding the future
operations that will result in Fairview
becoming famous in every stock market
in the world says the Fairview News.
Plans are just now maturing that will
cause the Nevada Hills to be quoted
daily on change on both sides of the
pond. But to keep faith with Mr.. Hold
son. the News will confine itself to the
facts that were given out for publica-
ton.
At the present time there are 10000
sacks of high-grade ore sacked in the
dumps at the Nevada Hills, while this
accumulation is in excess of the average
of 600 tons per month that have been
going out regularly. In the Slopes there
are 900 tons of $3.50 ore already broken
down, which cannot be moved; the nu-
merOUs chutes connecting the various
levels are filled to the brim with the
same quality. In brief the mine is block
ed with actual production
The time has come when strenuous
measures must be adopted to effect
transportation, and Mr.. 'Hodson went out
last night. headed for Yerington and
other points, for the purpose of inducing
teamsters to bring their outfits to Fair
view and haul ore exclusively, at a price
that will enable them to come in empty
The Nevada Hills Leasing company is
now paying Sl5 per ton, and is using the
greater number of the teams, though the
congestion at that mine is comparatively
as great as on the company works.
L am prepared TO execute a contract
and guarantee LOCO tons per month. and
would be glad to find some big outfit that
wants snap in the freighting line, .
stated MIR. HOdson.
Mr.. Hodson, who inspected the Fair
view Eagle strike, was delighted with
it. In mis- opinion the opening of this
enormous vein of rich suIphide ore, at
the zoo level, will aid materially in push
ing through a railroad project for this
camp. There is no question now, that by
the time a railroad could be constructed
there will be available for transpOrta-
ton more than dozen cars of ore every
twenty-fOur hours.

HAS A FINE PROSPECT
IN PARK CITY CAMP

Mike Fitzgerald. who for years has
been operating what he calls the Lookout
group of claims adjoining the Naildriver
on the south. is down from Park City on
business connected with his promising
property. He states that the tunnel is
now in over 40O feet and that he has lust
opened as fine a looking fissure as there
is in the district. That he will develop
the proposition into a producer before
long he is more than confident
For several years he plugged away on
the proposition single-handed and alone.

good crew of men constantly at work

RICH ORE MARKETED
FROM MAZUMA HILLS

The initial carload of ore from the Ma
yuma Hills company's property at Seven
TToughs, New. reached this city few
days ago and was settled for on Monday.
1t was impossible to get at the exact
value of the shipment. but it leaked out
during the day that the gold contents of
the ore was % ounces. or $500 a ton. The
amount of silver could not be learned
but there is no question but what it was
sufficient to run the total up to over 500
per ton.
The company is said to have shipped
some ore to Selby's that was over three
fourths gold. while two sacks are known
to have been sold to an assayer here on
assays showing 1.260 ounces gold, or on a
basis of S25. 200 per ton. 1t was declared
that the company. aside from the ship
ments that will be occasionally made by
express. will so grade it's ores for regu-
lar shipment that the transportation
charges can be kept within reason.

RAPID GROWTH
Of U.S.COMPA ANY
Net Earnings of Mines and
Shelters Show Splendid
Gains.
NEAR 100000 THIS YEAR
MAMMOTH PROPERTY MAKING
FINE RECORD.
NEAR 100000 THIS YEAR

The United States Smelling, Refining &
Mining company has issued a statement
from its Boston offices that brings the
company's operations practically up to
date, or July l, of this year. There is
some interesting data in the report a
synopsis of which appears in the last
market letter of Hayden. Stone q Co.
as follows:
This eompany's mining properties are
divided into three principal groups: The
Mammoth group at Kenneth Cal; the
Utdh group which includes the Centen-
nlal-Eureka at Tintic. and the original
United States mine at Bingham. and the
Real del Monte at Pachuca. Mexico When
1t is considered that of these only the
first two have as yet contributed at all
TO income, and that the Centenniai-Eu-
reka is the only group whose earning ca
pacity has been at all fully developed, the
possibilities of this company'ca be soma
what appreciated
In addition to these mining properties.
the company has several smelling and re-
inning plants, which do not however play
a very important part in the matter of
income.
Growth is Rapid.
Since 1904 the growth of the proper
ties owned by the United States Smelt-
ing has been very rapid. as may be seen
from the following table of earnings:
1S05-First six monthsS eSS f57
Second six months. 1.267, $50 1885, 1873
lyO6-First six months. 81. 472 169
Second six months 2,0S2, 353 IS, 504, 522
lSJs-First six months 81 81, 1856
For the full twelve months of 1897 the
net earnings should amount to between
A,VeJ.VOO and s.. 100000. For one year the
net income has been equivalent to over
twice the dividend on the common: or
TO put II another way, the common stock
Tor a year past has been earning at the
rate of practically 81 a share.
Additions to the equipment within the
near future comprise surface tramway
and two new furnaces at the Mammoth
property, a sixth copper and sixth lead
furnace at the smelling plant, and mar
row gauge railway at the Richmond E,u-
reka mine of the Utah GROUP

Examined Field Carefully.

I'VE went over the field very care
fully without giving any one an init
nation that we intended to buy amy
thing. We visited the well that was
recently brought in and then took in
the country to the east and. the west.
We noted the formation, its straiifica-
ton and the different oil seepages
through the lowlands; found that the
first oil ever struck in the country vas
at a point three miles or so west of
where the recent strike was made. in
a well put down 220 feet with a spring
pole: found that an old oil man by the
name of F. A. Brown, who had been
prospecting the field for two years.
had located about one and three-quar-
tiers miles east of the new well, GER
tain that he was right. After seeing
all these things and weighing the prop
OsitiOn carefully, we started out 10 find
the men who owned the land we had
decided we wanted and we bought it,

Drilling Rigs Ordered.


To-day we have organized two COM
panies, one to operate 100 acres on the
Brown location, the other to develop
1850 acres, covering the original spring
pole well discovery and running up to
within a quarter of a mile of the re-
Gently discovered well. These proper
ties have been bought and paid for in
cash. Drilling rigs have been ordered
from Los Angeles, and, let me say, we
ordered from there only because we
could not get them here, and just as
soon as possible we shall begin boring
on both properties.
I'VE believe we have secured just as
good land as there is in that region. If
we get oil in one well we shall cap it
and proceed with the driving of an
other. As soon as we have demon
strated to our own satisfaction that
the field is all right. additional rigs
will be installed and well after we'll
VIII be put down. We are not going
TO be cramped for money and, when
the proper time comes, we shall be
prepared to put in pipelines to carry
the oil TO the railroad build refineries
or do anything else that the field justi-
fies and business enterprise demands.
When we quit the field, if such a thing
should happen, it will be only after we

found that it is no good. We are so
far we'll satisfied with what we have
done and we have every faith that the
field is going to be a big one and that
fine grades of oil will be developed"
Big Men in Companies.
The corporation that will operate on
the 160-acre tract to the east of the
latest well. is to be known as the
Southwestern Oil company. 1t is cap
italiZed at S1,000000. in 81 shares. Bert
l.. Smith. the Reno banker. is presi-
dent; H. II. Clark, vice president: c. d.
Porter, secretary and treasurer; the
other directors being Peter Porter and
II. f. COllett.
The other company is called the
Southern Utah Oil company, and is
capitalized the same as the South
western. II. II. Clark is president:
Bert L. Smith, vice president: G. D.
Porter, secretary and treasurer; d. J.
Smith and f. L. Ferree. both of ST
George, being the other directors The
offices of both companies will be in
this city. and both Messrs. Clark and
Smith promise to be frequent visitors
here.
Fourteen pounds of groupings from
the Southern Utah company's ground
were crushed and distilled and a pint
of kerosene oil was obtained This
fact and the character of oil that
Messrs. Clark and Porter were able to
obtain from ground belonging to both
companies has convinced them that.
while there are possibly inferior grades
of oil down there, as in most fields.
there are also unlimited quantities of
productfhat will yield much high
grade fuel and illuminants, and that
they propose to demonstrate with as
much dispatch as possible.
