GOLDFIELD MERGER
INVOLVES 100000
Details of Recent Report Made by Directors o
the Goldfeld Consolidated Mines Company.
Financed by Baruch of New York

The report of the trustees for the
Goldneld Consolidated Mines company
has been submitted and unanimously
ratified. Nearly s1O,000,000 is involved
in the gigantic merger transaction, in
which thousands of Californians end
eastern investors are interested. The
report, which bore the signatures of
John S. Cook j. w. Finck, G. s. Thorn
as James r.. Davis and r.. l.. Johns,
recited in detail the steps by which
the big gold producers of Nevada had
been merged.
In speaking Of the method employed
to 1a1se the money. to meet options on
the various properties the report re-
veals the fact that Bernard M. Baiuoh
of New Y, TX has become n tower in
the ccipors tion.
Baruch Supplies Coin
on this point the report ays
"A contract was made on December
2s with Bernard M. Bar" IN Of New
York city by which he agreed to lend
the sum OF $1,O00,OOO to make the pny-
nient of J9nuary 90 1907, AMI In con-
siceiatior sor this loan he was to be
given an option to purchase 1,OOlo00
shares OF the capital stock Of this
company, for the sum of S7,T5OD00.
"a meeting of this board was accord
ingiy held or the 9Th day cf January,
1907, at which 1t was agreed that the
stock % the Combination Mines COM
panY should be purchased Cor 100000
shares of the capital stock of this com
rany. and an additional $4,000 shares
was authorized to be issued for taking
sara Of incidental matters in contlec-
tlon with the consummation OF this
deaf.
"Onc million shares of this stock
was Immediately optioned TO B. M.
Baruch for the period Of one year,
during which time, in case he takes
up his option, he must pay the company
for the stock the sum of $7,750,000. And
Of the $4,000 shares additional $4,000
were turned into the treasury to be
sold at the rate Of $3.50 per share"
Big Sum for Treasury
The report also states that the Com
bination Mines company, to which two
notes for q total of $3.50, ,108.44 were
given, elected on January 20 to have
the notes paid in stock of the Goldfield
Consolidated Mines company, with the
exception of some $4,000. The notes
were accordingly Cancelled. At the
same time 72,300 of the $4,000 shares
were sold and the sum of $542,250 paid
into the treasury of the Goldfeld Con-
solidated Mines company The report
continues: eE
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-17

The net result of these operations
Is that out of the sum of S7,750, 900 to
be received from the sale of stock to
Baruch the company will be required
to pay him only the sum OF S1,O00,0O0,
leaving S6,750,0O0 In the treasury Of the
company; to be added to this will be
the sum of s542, $50 received from the
sale of additional stock above men
toned. To be deducted from It will
be the cash payments made by Nixon
and Wingfield to purchase the re-
naming stock of the Combination
Mines company. These cash payments
will not amount to more than S260,000
50 that the company is now the abb
solute owner of the Combination Mines
company and on or before January
/, 1908, will have in it's treasury over
%,2O0,O00 cash from the sale Of stock
in connection with this transaction"
Big Fortune In Sight
1t is not proposed to use this sum
for dividend purposes. 1t is to be set
aside for the purchase Of additional
properties and for improvements.
The amount of stock owned by the
company in its constituent companies
is shown by the following table:

two. veins are feeders to the main vein,
which has course Of north 43 de-
grees east, and which from surface
showings is forty feet in width.
Along the footwall of this main vein
galena pay streak, about six inches
wide, has been uncovered, which car
ries almost solid. lead ore, with oc-
casional oxides and carbonates Of cop
per. The assay shows 62 cents in gold,

that, with depth, a large body Of sui

BORAX SMITHS
NEW RAILROAD

RHYOLITE, New, March 3.-The
Tonopah & Tidewater railroad, which
is the Borax Smith extension of the
Santa Fe, will be completed through
Amargosa canyon in six weeks, accord
ing to a statement made by General
superintendent John Ryan. Mr.. Ryan
also stated that the road would reach
the Lila c. mine by June /. This will
bring the road within eighteen miles
of Greenwater. From Greenwater the
road will be rushed to Rhyolite, Gold
field and Tonopah.
Concerning the Greenwater branch
Mr.. Ryan said: "If you have the busi-
ness the road will follow it, There
are two surveys-one entering the
town by the north and the other at
the southern end. These surveys are
canyon is being pushed and we have
a large force of men on the ground.
1 have Just completed a tour OF the
country in an effort to run down the
situation and l am of the opinion that
the strikes in and around Greenwater
are important enough to warrant the
building of the Ash Meadows smelter."
Mr.. Ryan also held a conference with
II. C. Bellenger in regard to the plac-
ing of theanew semlter at Ash Meadows
and the railroad swil be completed at
once to this point.
The site for the smelter already has
been selected and within a few weeks
hundreds of men will be employed at
the mines in building the smelter and
in constructing the railroad within a
few weeks
Assays OF characteristic ores have
been taken and upon the report of Bel
lenger viii depend the type OF smelter
that win be erected.
The money for. the construction now
is ready and nothing but the lack OF
material upon the ground prevents
work from starting at once.

The report adds:
at willFthus be seen that since the
announcement of November 21,' 1905,
the acreage of the companies owned
and controlled by this company has
been increased from 156.47 acres TO
395.149 acres, and your board believes
that there is not a richer section of
mining ground to be found in the
world that that contained in this large
domain owned by the companies of
which this company is the practical
owner"
