FINE ORE SAMPLES
FROM THE WASHABLE

George w. Morgan, president of the
Washable company, an auxiliary cor
poration of the Northern Nevada Ex-
plOration company, was exhibiting
some fine-lOoking gold ore that has
just been sent in from the property
yesterday. The. company owns several
claims In the Washable district, about
thirty-four miles from Winnemucca,
New, where there is much activity lust
now
I'VE have a number of leasers work
ing different parts of the ground said
Mr.. Morgan, land most of them are
taking out good ore. / understand the
values run, as the ore is mined, from
SIS to 1925 per ton, nearly all in gold.
That ought to be good enough for
anybody, particularly if the usual
high-grade streaks accompany il, as I
presume they do"
The company has granted the leases
on basis of Is per cent royalty, so
that, in addition to getting its ground
well prospected, it will make money if
the leasers do.

LEAD IS GOING
TO -FOUR DOLLARS
Local Ore PurcaSer Predicts
That Price for the Metal
Next Week

Harry S. Knight, of the ore buying
firm of Knight & Warnock, believes
that the local settling basis for lead
next week viii not be less than 81 per
100 pounds. Taking the quotations as
they come this week and the private in
formation that he receives by wire as
basis. he figures that the average price
received for refined lead in New York
this week viii approximate the price
mentioned. Mr.. Knight believes, also,
that the price from now on for some
time to come viii move up and that a
much better price than 81 will be
reached before the brakes are applied.
The average price of lead for the
past twenty-five years." said Mi.
Knight during the afternoon, has been
approximately $4.17 per 100 pounds, so
we are now approaching the mark
where there need not be expected any
wild advance. If silver would now take
a turn and move up, there would be
little in the way of the price of metals.
at least. for the producer to complain
or. look for a general resumption at
the lead-silver properties in the near
future, possibly within a few weeks"

HORN SILVER SPARRING
FOR AN ORE CONTRACT

a. I. Harrison, for many years sec
rotary of the Horn Silver Mining COM
pany, and who was named as president
after the death of Allan c. Washing
ton, stopped over on his way out to the
coast from New York early in the
week and, with Manager NJ. c. Morris.
took a hand in figuring on a contract
with the smelter for the output of the
property. When he continued his Jour-
ney no agreement had been reached.
and Manager Morris says that the
matter is still open.
At the mines, where new ore bodies
of Importance were recently encoun-
tered, work is still progressing, but
not with the same vigOr that will fol-
low the signing of a contract for the
output 1t takes a pretty good jockey
to get an even break with a smelling
company in figuring on the sale and
purchase Of ore these days. The mine
owner who signs up in hurry invaria-
bly, has chance TO repent at his leis-
ure.

BULLION-BECK'S
BIG DIVIDEND
Shareholders viii Pocket Sixty
Cents a Share, or $780,
600, Monday Next.

The directors Oft Bullion-Beck &
Champion Mining company met yester-
day and posted a dividend of $50. 600. or
60c share. Books will close tomor-
row afternoon and checks for the
amount will be issued on Monday. Last
month the company paid $4,000 and the
impression prevailed that like amount
would be disbursed monthly as long as
the treasury would stand il.
1t was last month that the company
received its money from the sale of
ground to the Centennial Eureka com
pany and yesterday it was decided that
the remaining surplus from that sale
might just as well be disbursed at once
as to string out the payments.
At the property of the company a
number of -leasers are operating and
making good money for themselves ard
the company, while the company itself
is devoting it's energies to the opening
up of new ground and, it is said, with
most encouraging results While it is
not likely that another dividend will
be paid during April, there is reason to
believe that the famous old mine will
be in line with substantial production
and good earnings before the year is
very old.
