STRIKE BIG CAVE

Strikes in East TIntic.
Especial to The Ncws.)

Especial to TIC l>cWssj
Eureka Dec. 25.-Christmas day In
East Tintic will be one to be long re-
mcmbcred as 1t shows four properties
with ore. two OF them with ore In pay
ing quantities and In a part OF the
district that was long discreditcd and
declared TO be barren OF ore. In tho
past year this country has jumped TO
tho lead and there is much to De c%-
pected during the coming year
Most of the properties are closed To-
day on account of II being holiday
AT the Grutli the drift on the 200 level
has encountered Il large cave rms was
broken into several days ago and since
then IL has been fully opened up. The
depth OF the cave has not been ascer-
tained and it is believed that 1t extends
down considerable distance. Inc waiis
show considerable iron stain, but thus
fpr no ore has been found.
In cross-cut on the 20O-foot icVei
ore CARRYING per cent lead. three
ounces in silver and so cents in goiu
has been encountered. This was going
stronger with depth. 1t has been de-
cided that the shaft shall be sent down
another 100 feet and then drilt Sent
out TO the north to get under the vein.
The Provo expects to be stopping orc
from it's new strike on Monday INC
seven feet of ore encountered week
ago has continued to improve. IL ca
ries better than So per cent lead and Is
getting better right along.
The East Tintic Development mas also
made another strike and at present
has a good showing of ore on the 3Uo-
foot level.
Speaking Of the property Wilford r.
Giles, one of the big interests says:
Returns Just received from thIee
cars of ore, show net profit TO the
company of S1,S79. One car alone
has netted us SS94.SI
"That, we think, Is going some. and
should be a matter to help along the
good cheer of the season"
IN FINE SHAPE.
Regarding conditions at the mine.
MI Giles said:
1.-The ore shipped was taken from
the 2SO-foot level, but work on tie
30O-foot level has developed a small
vein of much promise.
I'VE are drifting for the vein on the
500-foot level, and our expectation is
that. wc will tap the same vein from
which the high grade was taken on the
230-foot level, in another 40 feet
"I am elated at the condition or the
property and the promise it holds out.
as well as gratlfled to be able to say
that the financial condition of the
company is first class. 1t is out OF
debt, and has in the treasury 100000
shares of treasury stock"
1t is reported that strike of con-
siderable Importance has just been
made at the Tintic Standard. The com
pany has, in a crosscut off the 700-foot
level, run into a foot of low grade ore
that carries as high as seven ounces
in silver. 1t is. declared that the ore is
considerably leached. but that a cross
cut will undoubtedly open up a very
large body OF high grade ore on that
level.

The dividend rate of the Utah Cop
per will be increased and the stock

of In the following telegram recently

able outcome of the consolidation OF

the next dividend declaration be plac-
ed on a So year basis by increasing
the quarterly disbursement from so
cents to rs cents a share. Furthermore.
stock holders will be given the oppor-
tunity to subscribe to 10000 shares of
new stock at $50 a share. thus provld-
ing S7500,c00 cash for plant improve
ments and working capital.
We understand that every holder of
10 shares of Utah Copper Will be given
the opportunity to subscribe for one
new share at $50. This privilege will
also accrue to the present holders of
Nevada Consolidated shares who will
have exchanged them on the basis of
two and one-quarter for one of Utah.
In this manner both the Utah stock
holders and asserting Nevada Consoli-
dated stock holders Will be In receipt
OF rights before long as we'll as an in
creased dividend.
Except for the final word of the
Utah stock holders in increasing the
capital stock of their company from
s7.500.000 to s25.O0O.0O0, the merger with
the Boston Consolidated has been con-
cluded on the basis of two and one
half for one. The rights to subscribe
to new Utah shares will not. however,
be extended to the present Boston
Consolidated holders. for this privilege
Will have expired before the actual
exchange of Boston shares into Utah
has been accomplished.
On the other hand. for each share
