PINE NUT CON. COMPANY
GETTING PLANT COMPLETE

The stockholders of the Pine Nut
Consolidated Mining company held
their second annual meeting at their
office in Gardnerville last Monday. g..
w. Emigh, George J. Brown and J. j.
Brockliss were reelected to serve as
directors of the company.
President and Mine superintendent
Emigh submitted a very complete re-
port of the amount of work done dur
ing the year in mine development AMI
it is conservatively estimated that the
company's ore reserves exceed a half
million dollars. OF this hun ireds Of
tons are on the dump and await early
reduction. The report showed that
some $4,000 have been expended in
development of the company's prop
erty and mine equipment, which IN
cludes a first class steam hoist good for
a thousand feet, steel cage for the
double compartment shaft, a complete
cyanide plant of 50-ton capacity, a
5-stamp mill already erected and a 40
ton capacity Lane mill en- route from
San Diego, a mammoth rock pulverizer
and in fact the most complete mine
equipment in these parts. 1t is expect
ed that the plant will be ready for
operation within sixty days Gardner

AMERICAN CANYON WILL
SOON BE SHIPPING AGAIN

X. s. Feige of Lovelock, has just re-
turned from the American Canyon dis
trict, where he has been for the past
month doing his annual work ON the
Silver King claim. Mr.. Feige speaks
very highly of the future prospects Of
the district, from which he has just
returned and a that it will only be a
matter of time until American Canyon
will again rank as one of the big gold
and silver producers of the state, says
the Lovelock Review.
On the Silver King Mr.. teige has
sunk a shaft to a depth of 120 feet. At
a depth of 100 feet he cut through the
ledge, which is dipping to the east. AT
this point the ledge shows strong four
feet in width and gives assay value re-
turns of from go to 30 ounces in silver
and 81 in gold. 1t is intended tu CON
tinue the shaft to a greater depth and
then crosscut to the vein, where it is
believed better values will be found.
About 200 feet north of the shaft the
same ledge has been opened at the sur
face. Here the values run from 100 to
400 ounces in silver and So in gold. Mr..
Feige is very much elated over his
showings and believes that with proper

MAY BUILD RAILROAD FROM
FALLON TO SAND SPRINGS

C. w. Kinney returned on Saturday
from a business trip to the Willamette
country to look after business interests
there, says the Churchill County Eagle.
He expects some New York capitalists,
who are interested with him in the salt
marsh, to meet him shortly at Fallon.
These parties represent millions of cap
ital, and write that they intend to go
ahead at once with the development OF
the salt property.
1t is understood that one of the oh
jects of the present trip is to see what
can be done about the building of a
branch of the Southern Pacific from
Fallon to Sand Springs. Mr.. Kinney
says that if the Southern Pacific does
not extend the road it is not improbable
that the salt company will build a roac

development he will open up a regular
producer.
Louis Bartell, owning property one
quarter of a mile west of the Silver
King, has opened an eight-foot ledge
which pans free gold very freely. Por-
tions of this ledge are very rilch and
recently a shoot was encountered from
which the owner, with a crude process,
washed out from $40 to SIS in gold a
day. The Bartell property is being cx.
tensively developed in an endeavor to
locate another rich shoot.
Walker brothers, who recently discov-
cred a 20-foot vein of cinnabar ore,
are steadily developing their property.
Splendid values are being opened up
and the mine now looks as though It
was destined to become a producer.
There is talk of Lovelock capitalists
putting in a plant to reduce the ore.
The Bonanza King, located in
Spring valley, and on the same contact
as that which cuts through American
canyon, is also very busy. Three shifts
are o at work running the pumps to
unwater the mine. When the property
has been cleared of the water more
forces will be added and the old mine
will be further exploited.

INCREASE IN MINING SHOWN
IN DEMAND FOR SUPPLIES

That the mining industry is ON a
strong upward lift is shown by the
business which is being done at present
by railroads and machinery and supply
houses. The local manager of one OF
the largest firms doing business in min
ing equipment stated a day or so ago
that the past month has been the best
in point of sales Of equipment and sup
plies for almost two years.
The officials Of the various railroads
which enter Goldfeld also bear out the
the statement that business is increas-
ing very rapidly, and all of them state
that their various roads have done
more business during the past month,
not only as to passenger and freight
handling, but as to ore handling, thai
they have lone in any n month Tor
more than Is months. 1t is an encour-
aging condition.

NEW STEEL CORPORATION
MAY RIVAL U. 8. COMPANY

New York, June 2.-Wall street sees
a deep significance in the incorporation
at Dover, Delaware, of the Imperial
Steel corporation. 1t is believed today
that the new corporation, which is re-
ported to be a merger Of seven of the
largest Independent steel manufactur-
ing companies, presages the growth of
IN organization that may prove a rival
to the powerful United States Steel
corporation.
The new corporation is capitalized at
So, 10000 but under the provisions of
it's charter, the capitalization may be
increased to $75O,0OO,OOO. The follow
ing Independents are said to have af-
filiated in the merger: Bethlehem
Steel Corporation, Midvale Steel Cor
poration, Sloss-Shefield Steel and Iron
company, Republic Iron and Steel
company, Pennsylvania Steel COM
pany, Lackawanna Steel company,
Jones and Laughlin Steel company.
The capitalization of the companies
is $245, 100000. Their combined fund
ed debt is $1lO,OOO,OOO, making their
aggregate capital less than one-half Of
the amount for which they may capital
ize, according to the terms of the char
ter. 1t is claimed there is little or no
water in the capitalization of any one
of these companies and that the total
capital does not represent adequately
the actual value of their holdings. The
charter for the new corporation was
granted yesterday.
