L. ,. w., Chicago. We nave received
many inquiries about the Goldheld River
Bend NJ. & NJ. Co. and much Of the pro-
moter's literature has been sent to this
office. The company seems to have
property In Arizona as well as Gold
field. We know nothing of the Arizona
and not much about the Goldheld prop
erty. The claims which they " in
this locality might, by a stretch of I'M
~agination. be said to be located In the
Goldfeld district" but they are in real
ity in the Montezuma district. Their lit
erature states that the Skookum group
is surrounded by proven properties
This Is not true. as many other state
ments made. There is not a proven mine
or property within three miles. The
River Bend company tries to make CAPT.

the west. who. the prospectus says.
'have opened up within 200 feet of our
property a 16-inch pay streak, that runs
$4,000 to the ton. with four to five feet
of ore that shows a value of $50 to the
ton throughout" This is far from the
truth. If the Sassy Sal" had such ore
someone would be working 1t. There
hasn't been any mining done on that
ground for two years. The ground own
ed by the Goldfeld River Bend Mining &
Milling Company may have some merit.
There are good mining men in this dis
trict who believe that with extensive
work mineral in paying quantities will
be found in Montezuma. But the whole
tone of the literature sent out by the
promoters of River Bend is misleading
and many statements are absolutely
false. Not one of the officers and direct
ors lives in Goldfeld. They all may be
men of probity and standing, but they
are permitting some very vicious state
ments about their properly to go out
over their names.
J. W. L., Atlanta, 0a.-The Mohawk
Florence company acquired a suitcase
from the Little Florence in exchange
for use of the formers shaft and ma
chinery in working Little Florence
ground. The Mohawk-Florence struck
rich ore and mined out the block under
lease in a short time. The
paid one dividend of 10 cents per share
and have remaining about s35. 900 in the
treasury. Just what the plans of the
mpa are we cannot state, but we
understand a combination of some kind
is projected that will give the company
a good lease. At present 1t is without
any other assets than the cash in treas
ury. we understand.
J. q. D., san Rafael, Calf. The Mo-
hawk-Jumbo Leasing Company. or syn
dictate. as 1t was sometimes called, was
promoted by DR.. Lyman. who claimed to
represent the Union Securities Com
pany. He made a quick turn in selling
stock and then fled the camp and state
without doing any work on his leases.
1t turned out that DIR. Lyman had fig
ured in a number of fake schemes in the
east under different names. Creditors of
the Goldfeld company have never re-
ceived any returns.
L. A. K, New Haven. The Richard
Mohawk is still working diligently. but
so far without any big ore. A new hoist
of increased capacity was recently in
stalled. The ground is right in the heart
Of the producing area. but of course
that does not necessarily follow that
there is ore or that particular lease. We
have no data on the Johanna mine.
CneTTy Creek. we are not duNlSeu
whether the Observation-Disclosures at
Ida is working at present.
W. r. g., Schenectady. The lease of
the Combined NJ. & l.. company on the
Bee fraction of the Goldfeld Hub was
forfeited by that company by reason of
cessation of work. The lease was after
ward given to DR.. w. X. Robinson of the
Little Florence. who is putting in air
drills and is going after the ore. At the
2O0-foot point a cross-cut has been run
to catch the dixie. If the ore is not found
there, the management will begin sink
ing at once.
:. A. D., Denver. The Tokop-Con-
solidated has not been on the board of
either exchange for a long time. 1t was
one of the numerous companies of the
Mims-Sutro class that was put into
the Manhattan Merger Mines Com
pany. This company was formed to
gather in a lot of moribund companies
organized in various outside camps.
Have heard little of the operations of
the Consolidated Company since 1T was
formed.
New Conner, 0oldhsld. The January
Jones Leasing Company went into the
hands of a receiver, but later the lease
was purchased by G. s. Johnson. The
capital stock is to be increased, We be-
lieve. and 1t is said that under the new
company the stockholders of the Janu-
airy Jones Company will be protected.
The ground covered by the lease has
always been regarded as among the
most promising leases in the camp.
J. n. Ncc., Ogden, Utah. Can't find
that any operations are being prose-
cuted on the property you ask about.
The stock is not listed and we have
never heard of any curb transactions If
any of the articles in the prospectus
sent us. and attributed to the Goldield
News. were ever published in this paper
1t was before the present management
came into possession, which was Janu-
airy IL, 1906.
I. A. X, New haven. There is moth
ing doing on the Silver Pick Triangle
lease. The company got INTO a tangle.
