treasury.
8. M. M, Santa Fe, N. M. The Cola
Bullfrog Mining company is a fraud
and the people who have operated il
have been selling worthless stock
Partly through the efforts of this paper
the mountebanks have gotten into the
tolls. c. J.. Callahan, an assayer of Los
Angeles, who reported fictitious ASSAYS
for the stock ~peddlers, has been ar.
rested and is now out on bail of $1,000.
+. w. Nash, secretary of the company.
has not been apprehended but warrants
are out for him and all the other takers
of the delectable bunch of rascals.
Callahan is an old offender. He has
been handing out "salted' ASSAYS for
years. He could get gold out of a tur.
nip. He kept business going by giving
values where all others failed, and while
this made business good for him it
caused bad business for others. At
geles, who has always valued his bust
ness integrity, now finds that he has
been energetically selling stock on a
property that, since the revelation of
Callahan s methods, he finds to be
worthless. The cleanup of this ~rascally
Los Angeles bunch will be a good thing.
for Los Angeles has not enjoyed a very
good reputation as a promotion center.
H. p. M, South Norwalk, Conn. We
cannot learn that anything is being
done on the properties you ask about,
more than some superficial prospecting.
There was some little work for the de-
velopment of the property performed
last year, but not enough to demonstrate
anything. This company has spent a lot
of money prospecting various claims in
other sections. They "bought" these
latter properties under a bond, made
first payment, prospected the ground,
and in every instance, almost, threw up
the ground and forfeited first payment.
This was done in a number of eases.
among directors. William Bayley, d.
rector, Los Angeles, is suing o. P. Poey,
president and director. As these two
were the active agents in the company
its affairs have been allowed to drift,
from all appearances.
A. F., Marquette, Michigan. We re-
greet to say that this department erred
when it stated a week ago that Henry
Weber had been deposed from the posi-
tion of president and manager of the
Doctor Wonder Mining company. Mr..
Weber denies the allegation and offers
the records of both stockholders and
directors meetings in proof of his
statement, which is undoubtedly cor
rect. The error grew out of the recent
difficulties between the Hooper-Man
ming and Weber factions, which re-
suited in criminal as well as civil pro
ceedings. Mr.. Weber states that he is
the heaviest individual holder in the
company and that the Hooper Manning
people have only a few shares of stock
left, having disposed of their large hold
ings.
H. F. H., Detroit. There is a Quartz
lite Mining and Milling company with
properties at Ballarat, and owned, We
believe, in Milwaukee, but we do not
have at hand the names of the ofhcers
OF the company. There is a postomee
at Ballarat, we believe. The camp Is
in California. Write the postmaster.
F. f., Superior, Wis. None OF the
leases you ask about are being worker.
Wiz J. Morgan, manager, was expec'e"
here some weeks G to start up one
or more of the leases, but has not ?"
in appearances.
H. R. M, Middletown, o. No wolA
