FINANCING BIG DEAL.
How Goldfield Consolidated Mines Took

financed for the big merger was told last
week In the report Of the trustees 10
the stockholders. The report was made
public at the stockholders meeting in
Evanston. Wyo., when the purchase of
tho stock OF the Consolida ted Mines of
Goldheld was ratified saws the Tonopah h
News.
The company borrowed 81, 900 900 To
make the, first payment and gave an op-
ton to the lender Of the amount on a
share, which option undoubtedly Will be
taken up, giving the company 81 750, 900
III cash. There was an Impression that
at this meeting dividend would be de
clared, but such a step had not been
contemplated, for the reason that the
directors alone have this power and not
the stockholders.
However. it is expected that the direc-
tors will authorize the frs, OF next week
the payment OF a dividend OF to 10
cents share-probably 10 cents. Ap-
pIroNlmalely pro- 100000 has been set aside for
This purpose. The fund VIII be derived

in the official report Itself
The raising Of the money TO put

overcoming of certain legal obstacles
which threatened To impede the move,
were two achievements rejecting credit
