FACTS OF DEAL
 LEAKING THROUGH
Figures as to How Calumet 6 HeCIa Secured Bigelow
 Properties Coming 0ut


 BOSTON. Mar. 1e.-While official figures are still not forthcoming with respect to actual amount of shares in the BigelOw properties recently ac- Qlired by the Calumet -x Eecla Co. it Is possible to very closely 1pprozi- mate the same. It developed Thur day, fer instance, at the annual meet ing Of the Osceola Co. that the CaIu- met & Hecla Co. took over 9GOO shargs Of Osceola from the Sears Building interests. bringing it's ownership in that company up to S2,271 shares. For two years its holdings in OsCeOia bas stood at 22,671 shares.
 The total Of 32.27l shares gives to the Calumet interests an ownership of 33.6 per cent Of the total 96, ,150 shares of OsceOra now outstanding.
 No prices were put upon these shares in the trade. The 117,u0J shares are purchased in block from Mir. Hyams representing himself and associates; A. s. Bigelow does noe appear. Negotiations and the trade were all between Mir. Hyams and the Calumet & Hecla directors.
 With the acquirement of II7.000 shares, the Calumet & Hecla. treasury now owns a total of not less than 60l,- 52O shares in other Lake Superior companies, an amount representing i9 per cent of the 1, ,229. .l27 shares out standing in tho l5 compames.
 The Calumet sold through Lee, His ginson & Co. the sl,9JO,000 notes and the other side sold to MilIett. Roe Hagen the ST e8j 900 notes. Therefore tho. sellers divided among themselves $4,134,0O0 in notes and S4,3s5.O00 ir cash, but from the Calumet & Heck was received directly s2,7OO. 900 1T cash, of which $l,950,OOO was Obtaing, from the sale the notes and S750.o9t from its own treasury and banks.

T5e exploitation of tae wealth of Yuma county has just begun. For practical purposes the sterile and un- inviting mountain fastnesses of Yuma county have remained for untold ages a sealed book, says the Yuma Sun Some few good mines h've been dis, covered in the past and developed Unto good properties; but it has only been very recently that the real, un- told mineral richness of Yuula coup ty Sas appealed to the prospector ana the capitalist.
 Just now there is more prospecting and more promising claims being lo- cated and moro work being done in the development of claims than at any time since this country has been in the possession of the white man. How many fabulously rich gold. silver and copper mines will be developed in these mountains only time can tell; but that the Arizona mountains. the Plomas range, tho Castle Dome range and the Fortuna mountains are 9 vast store house of mineral wealth is be- coming moro and more evident all of the time.
 Just at this time prospecting is ex. ceedingiy active and every week brings to light some new and rich strike and there is a rush to the neN field. to locate claims and get in on tae good thing before all or the ground is staked.

of the territory. It is only an illus tration of what Q magnificent prop erty can be made out of a good claim. It continues it's production and developing: only those on the in- side know how much it is worth or what the yearly output is. That it Is very large is a certainty and it's value is away up in the millions.
 The Thumb Butte property, which is exclusively owned by Yuma people. is about 1S miles from the North Star. Development is going on at 8 raprs rate. The main shaft is down BIO feet and from the 300 foot level they are drifting. The shaft from the 200 foot level and .he drift are in solid put in Q solid body of ore, the aver age of which runs high. This mine will shortly put in g mil and will be added to the large producers in the county. These are all gold proper ties and big ones and from them mil Hons of dollars G>ll be taken in the next few years.
 The Alvarado strike, recently made by tho Alvarado boys and in whica Felix Mayhew Is interested, Is a new proposition This property, for so it can be called, promises to be bigger and richer mine than any of the oth- CTS. The ledge is 50 feet wide and half a mic fons a1d will run Sl00.0e to the ton from the "grass roots. It is a perfect mountain of ore. It lOoks like that when it Is developed it will be one of the big gold mines of the world. The Alvarado boys and May how are on the ground and develop ment work is being done. Mayhev has the money to develop this prop erty himself and it's rapid develop. ment into a producing mine eau be looked for at once
