KEWANOS TURNS DOWN
VERY TEMPTING OFFER

Bonanza mining properties of Goldfield
are still coveted by the eastern capital
lists, who yesterday made an attempt to
get control of the Kewanos by seeking an
option on the majority of the stock, the
owners of which were in the city yesterS
day TO attend the annual meeting of the
keWanos Mining company, says Wednes-
days Goldfield Tribune
The suggestion was made by a prOmi-
nent Go!dfield company representing east
ern capital that ii be allowed an option
on the majority of the stock. but upon
the statement of the directors of the Ke-
WanOS that they refused to consider any
offer less than 81 per share, the negotia-
tons We're closed
At the annual meeting of the Kewanos,
which was held in the Goldfield hotel
yesterday afternoon and evening, ten of
the principal stockholders of the company
were present, representing some e00,oo0
shares of the company stock. The meet
ing resulted in the election of the old
board of directors and officers. a thor
ough inspection of the affairs of the
company resulted in showing that it is
in first-class condition, and it was decid-
ed that operations will be pushed rapid

ond vein encountered in the working tun-
mel al point about $40 feet from the en-
trance to the mine Manager George A
Beilinger was in town yesterday and he
1T was that explained conditions
When the second vein was cut by the
tunnel II was found to ne about three
feet wide. Drifting north the ledge has
widened to six feet or more and there is
now exposed an eighteen-inch streak of
ore that assays $50 ounces silver and 81. 40
In gold per ton, with a little more than a
trace of lead. These values are found in
an iron gangue, but whether the streak is
going TO hold out and prove to be a reg
ular silVer-gold proposition, as 1t now is,
or not, is something for development to
determine. At any rate. the balance of
the ledge filling is of the regulation lead
silver variety. with much of it running
around 40 per cent lead and 10 ounces
silver.
While the prospecting and development
OF this No. vein is progressing. the tun-
mel is being crowded steadily ahead for
what is known as the back ledge, the
main vein in the property. Manager Bel
lnger states that the face is now heavily
mineralized and the belief is that the oh
jeetive point is not a great distance
ahead.
The mine is now in shape to produce a
great deal of ore and when the third ledge
is tapped and opened up, with better mar
kets for lead and silver, the company
will be in a position to show the share
holders what a real mine Is.

.CLARK'S OIL RIG
IN COMMISSION
One Hundred Feet Made in
Well Below Virgin in One
Days Drilling. .

That II. H. (Bullfrog) Clark is making
the dirt fly down in the oil fields twenty
miles southeast of Virgin City. where he
has installed one of the finest drilling out
fits that ever came into this western
country is indicated in the following let
ter. written Tuesday and received yes
terday morning:
II started my big rig drilling yesterday
and am now down 100 feet. and everything
working like clockWork. There is nothing
like having the very best machinery and
the bes- expert men. My three 'Hoosier'
drillerS took the green lumber just from
the saw mill. framed ii all themselves,
erected the derrick, unpacked and put up
the new machinery, put in 600 feet of pipe
line and, in eleven and One-half days after
their arrival on the ground, started the
drills L want to hear of some crew that
can beat that, especially with as heavy
machinery as we have.
I'VE were much worried about water,
but at a depth of twenty-feet we struck
the water we need. and we are now 'spud-
ding in a side well to pump from.
we expect to encounter the oil sand
at about LEO feet and hope then to have
some news that will sound loud all over
the state.
The wells of Virgin are doing fine and
all the field needs is more work and mon
ey.
Il have just received a very liberal Of
fer for tract of land that we own from
a Pennsylvania oil man, who has had his
expert on the ground, and he will com
mence work about three miles from my
present well soon.

BAD WEATHER CAUSES
SICKNESS AT GOLD CIRCLE

W. f. Shaw, who holds lease No. on
the Gold Crown company's property at
Gold Circle. came in from camp yester-
day morning to spend a few days at
home. He is considerably under the
weather and states that a great deal of
sickness has been experienced in the
camp during the changeable weather of
the past few weeks. Men have been work
ing and sleeping out without tents or
other protection than a blanket or two
and the result has been that several cases
of pneumonia. with some of them prov
ing fatal, has been the result. Such
things, however, invariably go with a
new camp until time has been had to pro-
vide proper accommodations and now
that spring is so close and with settled
weather conditions SO near, it is not ex-
pected that much more suffering will en-
sue in the district.
Mr. Shaw states that no less than
twenty-one sets of leaseTs are now either
at work or making ready TO cut loose on
the property of the Gold Crown company
and Manager S. NJ. Levy is still busy try
ing to take care of applicants. Just as
Mr. Shaw was leaving camp he learned
that the owners of lease No. ,, who start
ed work a few days ago. had got down
twenty feet in the ledge and that an
eight-inch streak assayed 1853 a ton in
gold. Strikes were of daily occurrence,
he said, but he had made no particular
effort to keep track of them.

Mines and Mining Stocks
MINING STOCK EXCHANGE
Prices Are Moving Up and the Mar
ket Is Gaining in Strength.

Clouds that seemed to be lowering over
the local mining stock market for sew
eral days are apparently lifting and, not
Wtthstanding metal price conditions and
other unfavorable features of the BUSH
ness, il begins to look as though another
bull movement had started The talent IS
now wondering if history is not going TO
repeat. itself. 1t is being pointed out that
several times in the past ten years the
local exchange has enjoyed boom IN
stocks while conditions were exactly the
reverse in practically every other mar
ket In the world. Mine conditions, OF
course, are ripe for any kind of a bulg-
ing move, but everything else is against
il. But there is no getting away from
the fact that money is being poured into
the better classes of stocks and the prices
are responding just as they might be eX-
pected to do under normal conditions.

ANNUAL MEETING OF
NEVADA HILLS COMPANY

At the annual meeting of the Nevada
Hills company yesterday the old board of
directors was reelected and there is lit
tie or no doubt that when they organize.
a few days later the old officers will be
renamed. That will make the board read
as follows: w. V. Rice, president; John
r HOdsOn. vice president: w h clark,
secretary and treasurer, and w. Ii. Web
Der. general manager with John A. Kirby.
James Farrell and j, r. Davis as the
other directors.
Reports made at the meeting showed
that, during the past year, or foBthat por-
ton of it that shipments were made, 4459
tons of ore were sent to market. This
ore contained 1-632 ounces Of gold and 49,
524 ounces of silver, The company has paid
five dividends averaging S74,543.3O each, or
a total of 1872, 1850, and the treasury re-
serve now amounts to S59.630.29.
As mine conditions were pretty well eX-
planned in statement from Manager w.
II. Webber yesterday morning, IL is I'M
necessary to deal with it again. As is
generally known, the company. like all
other companies operating out in this re-
gion. has had low silver prices and I'M
usual smelter conditions to face for the
past six or eight months and, as re-
suit no particular effort has been made
to market ore from the property; II
seemed too much like throwing away
good money while. for A portion of the
time. the smelters did not want the ore,
anyway.
Work has never ceased at the mines.
however. and while the force was natural
~ trimmed a great deal, tremendous
amount of new work has been done anu
the ore reserves i'm the mine have been
added TO all the time. The new develop
ment i'm eastern ground is considered the
equivalent of opening an absolutely new
and independent mine and. as the charac-
ter of the ore is such that the percentage
OF gold and silver has been reversed, with
gold predOminating. il is more than likely
that, until the price Of silver moves up
again. most of the ore that may be
shipped in the near future will come from
the eastern portion of the mine. No
splurge in the matter OF shipments will
be made just yet, though, even from the
new ground

BOND ISSUE OF s25O,OOO
Will Pay For Work Laid Out By
 Former AIdermaDjc Board.

People who pretend to De alarmed at bond issue of $250,O00 for Li- brary park and other things inci- dental to railroad changes ill Water- bury, including the opening of Liber- ty street, must have very poor reten- tive powers, and, indeed, the most charitable construction that~could be put upon the attitude of citizens who are. railing at the present board Of aldermen for passing such resolu- tion, is that they are joking. Isn't 1t so that everybody who knows any, thing at all about this project is aware that the former board of al- dermen settled up this park matter and that the present board is bound by contract between the railroad company and the city to pay? The park may or may not he good thing, but in any case the board Of aldermen now in office is not in a position to do anything in the prem ises except provide the city's share of the expense from time to time. " hdI WOuiu you ody pupPooAh5 ot oiAS end of the year the aldermen refused to provide an appropriation to retire the water and sewer bonds according as they mature? There would be just as much sense in such course as in making a fuss over the city's share of the expense as there is in making a scene over the city's share of the cost of the approaches to the new union station.
