FEAR FRAUD
IN 4 BIG TOSAPAH NINE.

NEW YORK. May 1S.-The stock
holders of the Tonopah Extension
Mining company propose to find out
at the annual meeting tomorrow
what has been done with the property
and aeertain If statements made by
the ellis element at the time the
mine was floated were correct. The
collapse of the Montgomery Shoshone
mine. also controlled by the Schwab-
Gillis syndicate, has angered many
persons who have sustained losses in
both properties. Experts employed
by the important stockholders who
have gone through the Tonopah mine
without the knowledge of the man
agement have made adverse reports.
The stockholders of the Tonopah
Extension are inclined TO believe that
Schwab relied upon Donald Gillies.
his mining expert, and that the latter
conducted stock market campaign
rather than the development of the
mine. Charles M. Schwab, who
owns one-third of the Tonopah En-
tension stock. said today that he
heartily favored an Independent In
yestigation for the stockholders in
formation. have been more de-
ceived than any one else" he said.
'as advanced all the money needed
TO carry on the work on both the
Tonopah Extension and Montgomery
Shoshone.'

bedrock. This block, containing APP
proximately 3S.4O0 yards, yielded so
cents yard, at cost of "a cents,
including depreciation. ! cite this as
an instance of what may be expected
ed for dredging.
THAWING COST "a CENTS.
Our thawing by steam points in
advance of the dredges actually cost
IA cents Fer cubic yard, and will be
reduced to IL cents with our present
equipment. The need for failing
room made 1t necessary to start the
dredges before pressure water was
available. and steam thawing is our
only resource at present. Our dredg-
ing cost we expect to reduce TO the
neighborhood of 20 cents after water
is available. To attain the above
costs. cheap power is a necessity.
We have provided for this by in
stalling our own power plant of o.
900 horse power capacity on the
Little 12-Mile, from which we will
deliver power to our operations at
cost of not to exceed SO a horse
power month, which is much
cheaper than the average California
power cost.
THE dreges in 1907, operating for
less than so per cent OF their possible
running time. absorbed more than
$4,000 in experimental stripping
and thawing charges, as well as the
entire cost of operating a large power
plant and still showed profit.
ihe properties In the Yukon Gold
Consolidated have earned net profit
of more than 100000, while in the
equipment stage where the operation
has been confined to very small

From these figures, concludes the

Yukon property contains. assured and

Welding profit of 100000. In

Report on Property That
Puts New Light on the
SituatiOn--IS Far From
UnfavOrabIe

o. u. Perry, the mining engineer in
whose charge the properties of the
Yukon Consolidated Gold company,
were put in their present shape, deals
at length on what may be expected
from the properties in a communica-
tion to the Mining & Scientific Press.
In view of the great. deal that has
recently ben printed about these
properties. both adverse and favor
able, what he has to say is of par
ticular interest.
The proposition" says Mr. Perry,
has been criticised freely on the
ground of impracticability, great
pressure being put upon the mechani-
cal difficulties and impossibility of
handling frozen ground. Our own
hydraulic operations on a small scale
have shown profit through two
years operations. We have provided
for dump room by purchase and con-
troll of the creek claims A con-
tinuous water supply during the
summer seasons has been thing IN
known In the Klondike district. We
have secured our water supply from
the main right fork of the 12-Mile
River, which. at the lowest stage, in
sures us a continuous supply of
5000 miners inches throughout the
season.
"All OF the conditions for economi-
cal hydraulicking are present. We
have provided, in the laying out of
the system, for the application of the
water at several points In the creek

the number OF openings the highest
possible duty. Taking our present
hydraulic cost as base with the re-
auctions that can be safely figured to
result from a continuous water sup
ply. | feel sure that the 10-cents cost
for hydraulicking is a safe average
figure throughout the life of the
operation.
LIMITATIONS OF DREDGING.
Our dredging operations have also
been severely criticised. We have
realized from the outset the limita-
tions of dredging in the Klondike,
and have only installed dredges on
the wide open valleys where the bed
rock is suitable and On portions of
the creeks where the gravel was
