In the Giroux annual report, Presi-
dent Joseph L. Giroux reviews the
growth of the company and the de-
velopments 10 date. He says: "A
bond issue of s1,500.00O was au-
thorized at the last annual meeting
to bring in the Steptoe water to the
mine and to put the property upon
a productive basis. This issue was
offered 10 the stockholders for sub
scription in March. Less than $780,
900 of the bonds were subscribed,
making il necessary to seek else
where for the money. 1t was not
until October that part of the issue
was SUCCESSFULLY placed and the COM
pany enabled to proceed with its
plans.
Mill operations were commenced
in November. The crushing ma
chinery proved inadequate. Addition
al Chilean mill and rolls were pro-
vided. which brought the mill up to
its full capacity. The ratio of con-
centration has been about 1214 tons
into |.
The Alpha shaft was continued to
the 1200-foot level. The flow of water
increased with depth. The Wine was

a large inflow of water, indicating
that the ore body is close at hand.
AT the close of the year a PROPOSE
ton was made to the directors to
purchase the company's Nevada prop
erty for $6.00o,000, which offer was
declined. This was followed by the
purchase of a large interest in the
company's stock by Thomas r. Cole,
who will take an active part in the
management.
Confident of the existence of an
extraordinary deposit of high grade
carbonate oxides and sulphides in the
Alpha, our principal energies will at
once be devoted 10 its development.
Further Developments In the por-
phyry ores will also be prosecuted to
permit of milling operations on a
broader scale large portion OF
these deposits can be mined by steam
shovel methods.
THE treasury shows available
funds of over $l,000,000. The
directors have decided that the best
plan of obtaining money quickly
hereafter is To increase the present
bond issue. the new issue to he sub
ject 10 redemption at par and to he
secured by second mortgage on the
Nevada property.
THE eompanys property in Mexico
consists of 459 acres of mineral lands

group are gold and copper, while
those of the San Jose are strictly cop
