Z. w. s.. Delta, Colo.-The shaft Is
down $50 feet and about 1,2OO feet Oh
lateral work vas done on the 200 ana
levels. No work has been done
IA the lease for over a month, the com
Icing out of funds. Arrange
meuts were made by the company 10
work their ground through an adjoining
ea and at the time of the shut
down, they were prospecting a VEN
cut at the 20O-foot point. 1t would
seem. from experience on the Atlanta
ground, that it would have been bet
ter mining to have continued SINKING
to the 6oo-foot point. Instead of spend
ing money prospecting at shallow
a,pths. Ine tease here was In good
hands, but subject to orders from New
York, and dependent upon New YORK
Ior funds.
]. e. w., Pittsburg, Kas.-All we
can saw is that none of the work done
on Atlanta has been deep enough TO
determine its merits as mineral ground.
several leases are working and as you
will see from TINS issue OF The News,
encouraging conditions exist, at least
upon one of the leases. Sometime a
deep exploration shaft will he put down
ON rnat property, Tut At does not o
as if the Atlanta people themselves
VIII DO 1t. In raet, that company is NOT
in condition financially to mine. The on
ly way several estates In TINS camp
will be developed is to give a D or III
year lease to some strong company,
enabling them to 10 work on a large
scale with enough time to get their
money back.
4. ". L., Racine, Wis. and others
We have the foilowing from our Man
haitian correspondent on the canon
mil company: From my general I'M
Outstanding and from special inquiry
mace | find that the company is still
intact and that it is under a ten-year
to Walter Lamb. l was told that
Mr.. Lamb agreed to take care OF the
debts OF the company amounting to
close to $4,000. Mr.. Lamb has leases
on Union y and Little Grey and ex-
meets TO move the mill to the ground.
| have no definite information, but I'M
derstand that the lease carries an OPP
ton to buy the mill, or at least a con
troll of it..
H. e.. c., San Francisco regret
that we are unable to give you the ad-
dress of the secretary of the Goldheld
Montezuma Mining company. The
Fred Nelson, died some
months ago at Rawhide, of pneumonia.
According to our understanding the
company has nothing in the way OF as
sets. as its ground was relocated Jan
uary / of this year. The property is
tnree mics southwest of Goldteld.
A. B. B., Columbus, Ga.-The officers
of the Frisco Group Gold Mining com
were at our last advice: Michael
Daum. president, Cincinnati, o.; q.
Cook, treasurer, Chicago, Ill. Address,
Baltimore building, Chicago, Ill.
H.. Il. r., milwaukee, Wis.-You will
see reference to the Atlanta and the
June Atlanta, in another column.
r. T.. D., Bosron--These ''long dis
experts are a wonder. What
they don't know about Goldfeid mines
would fill many congressional libraries.
We do not believe the brokers issuing
the letter you sent us, have been IN
uoidGeid for at least three years. They
prate about their "Goldield represen-
tatives,' while they simply use what
ever hoating information they may get
and twist it to suit their purpose.
C. A. D., Philadelphia.-We haven't
heard of the company for years, and
me DdIliCo NouutttNu ith ~ h"NS SchS
nroke. They were cheap %swindlers, and
save long ago fled this camp.
z. W., Los Angeles, Calif.-We sup
pose the struggle for control of the
is accountable for the neglect
of the stock. The mill is not big enough
do great things; it is expected, we
believe, that if the mill proves the
process to be a success, additions will
be made to output on a large scale.
4. H., Philadelphia and others.-The
North Star of Tonopah owns a little
less than four claims that are inside
property in the Tonopah district. 1t has
a snaft LOO feet deep and heavy lat
erai WORK. No work is now in prog
ress, as the treasury is depleted. Con-
ore has been shipped, run
ming about $50 per ton. The ore is a
sulphide. We understand that working
arrangements with the Belmont are
pending. We are advised that the
is a good buy at the present low
price.
j. G. R., Canton, Ohio.-The Queen
Consolidated Lease company has 400
of ground on the Hazel Queen
