The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-12-03

Company you re1er TO. Please gSe
us some details. Where is the com
pany operatings Who are it's officers,
etc.f There is no Interstate Mining
company operating in the Goldfeld DIS
trict that we know of. We must have
some cue with which to start our in
yestigations. Nevada is a big state
with thousands of mining companies.
ID. s., San francisco-The News has
printed reports of the finding of ore III
the Red Top Fraction. Last weeks
paper had an account of it. The Red
Top Fraction has got some ore-qulte
a lot of it and of good value. One or
more shipments have been made an .
production is continuing right along.
The mine seems to nave a raIrly good
amount of the VEN, and, as we under
stand it, without much fear of an apex
controversy.
J. w. L., Cleveland-The Rawhide
Coalition and Rawhide Queen both nave
good ground that is being extensively
worked by ~leasers. When the ground
was first located immensely rich orr
was taken from the surface and many
leases taken. The Rawhide Queen and
Rawhide Coalition were formed. The
former ground was purchased by +. w.
King, a successful mining man from
Montana, who was rated among the
largest and richest operators IN that
state. The other property belonged to
the Grutt brothers. George Graham
Rice got into the district and bought
the control of the Coalition, paying Tor
the stock as he sold it. Rice boomer
the camp and sold a great deal of the
stock. In the meantime both the
Queen and Coalition were producing
in a number of places and much of the
rock was of the "picture' variety. As
the shafts attained depth they develop
ed great quantities of milling rock.
Finally mills were built in Rawhide,
but they were poor affairs. Since, one
or two good mills have been put in ope-
ration. Rawhide is producing more
ore than these mills ear take care OF,
and it is rapidly developing into one
OF the lest camps in the state. We
understand there was an attempt to
consolidate the Queen and the Coali-
ton under the name of the Queen Con-
solidated. How far along the PROPOSE
| ton got we do not know. George Ora
ham Rice and his brokerage firm o.
Scheftels & Co. nave since gotten mo
trouble with the government, being
charged with "bucketing' stocks.
Whatever may become of Rice does no.
affect the value of the Queen and Goa
lition ground, although naturally his
arrest knocked the bottom out of the
stock. If owne only knew what was to
become of the c~ompan.es-lf they Wee
to come under substantial management
and be worked for their mining instead
of the stock possibilities, these stocks
at the present price would be a great
pickup. You might write to E. w.
King, Rawhide, Nevada, and get de-
tails of the future of these companies,
as planned.
f. l.. L., Marshall, Textile Pre-
cious Metals company is still working
It's lease on the Atlanta and has an.
nounced that it will sink to the thous-
and foot point in the hopes of reaching
ore. The company mas lately taken
over a silver-lead property in Califol-
MIA, of which much is expected. The
property has ore in it's present work
ings, but it has been considered advis-
able to work the property with a tun-
mel. SO a tunnel is being driven to
intercept the ledge with depth, whel
a good production is assured.
J. F. Y, Brookline, Mass.-There IS
such a company as the Newark Mining
& Milling company in this state, but
we have no data on it. If you vii
send us the location of the property
and the names of the officers as a clue,
we will endeavor to hunt it up for you.
C. F. c., Los Angeles.-Nothing is
being lone with the Butte Goldfeld
Mining company, except the assessment
work, which was lone last year. So
far this year it has not been done, but
it is assumed that it will be. (2) The
l.. l.. Patrick crowd won out in their
fight for the control of the Black Butte
Reorganized. Parts of the company's
estate are under lease and some ore is
being shipped at intervals. 1t IS
thought that a nine will be found on
that ground when the proper work is
done.
F., Dobbs Ferry-The Crown is Pre-
pairing to work. (2) No work was
ever done by the New York lease. (3l
They AVE abandoned their lease, as W.
understand it.
