The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-04-02

has approximately $4,000 shares Oh
stock in the treasury, but no money to
speak of. The company is under prac-
tically no expense, as the property IS
now and always has been worked by
|leasers. There are seven leases in active
operation on the estate at this time.
I. O. D. G., Oakland-The Florence
Consolidated Mining and Leasing com
many had the old January Jones lease
ON the Florence estate and at one time
was supposed to have one Of the best
and most promising leases in the dis
~trict; in fact the lease shipped a little
ore. The lease expired, however, with
out the lease company realizing any
thing. The Florence Consolidated had
no other assets save the machinery on
IT'S plant, as we understand it, and we
have reason to believe that this has been
disposed of. We cannot conceive of
any reason for the move you say is be-
ING made. Give us more light on the
subject.
r. L. G., Seattle-Sell by all means as
the company has gone to pieces, ae-
cording to our information.
j. T. S., Ogden-The Ramsey-Com-
stock is the biggest proposition in the
Ramsey district, and finds its little FL
Paso mili-a mill of the rotary type,
on the order of the Huntington OF
~Chilean-too small to handle the volume
of ore they now have available. Cap
tain Mayne is now on the coast negotia'
ting for the purchase of a 10-stamI
mill of standard type and that Will be
soon installed. The Ramsey-Comstocb
has as big a surface showing as any IL
the state and they are down about 400
feet; they are taking their ore from
the 160-foot level to the surface. They
have taken out $4,000 worth of bull
lion with the little rotary mill, anC
sent a $4,000 brick to the mint "a weeh
ago yesterday. The gold from the work
ings is remarkably fine, running to al
average of $19.4S per Troy ounce and
being pure yellow in color.
E. H. E., Salt Lake-A proposition j:
on foot to sell the Fairview Eagles
Nest property, and a special meeting OF
stockholders is called to consider 3
proposition of Charles E. Murdoch, fol-
a bond for one year in the sum of $3.50,
900. 1t will take a majority of the
stockholders to assent to the bond be
fore it can be given. Mr.. Murdoch had
a lease on the property some time age
but forfeited it. Knowing Mr.. Muir
dock, we believe he will "make good
if he is given the bond, as he has i'm
portant associates in the mining bust
ness. 1t seems there are two certificates
for a large number of shares missing,
their numbers being 1850 and 1850.
They were either lost or stolen, accord
ing to the secretary of the company.
Their absence was discovered when the
books were in the office of the Sullivan
Trust company. Any information re-
garding these certificates should be sent
to Charles E. Hudson, secretary.
A. L. s., Sherwood, Ore.--We under
stand that the Arizona mpan of
which you ask, the "Clark Development
Company is defunct. The camp of
Chloride did not pan out well.
A. A. w, M~organtown, w. va.-The
report of the Florence company is now
in the hands of the printer, and The
News will be prompt in publishing same
as soon as it is released. The report
will show a general and marked i'm
provement in the condition of the mine.
A report on the Florence is to be found
III this week s issue.
L. G. g.. Portland and others-The
Frances Cold Mountain Mining com
pany's ground is being worked in a
limited way, and we understand a rich
stringer has been encountered ana some
ore is being saved for shipment. Mr..
Williams, son of the former president,
who, as you know is dead, is at the
property, giving it his personal super
vision.
N. P. H., Owen Sound, Canada-The
property is being worked with good
prospects. The company is not very
heavily financed and the work done is
not on an extensive scale, but the pros
poets are good at Manhattan for a pros
porous season.
IT,. l.. E., Seattle-We do not make
III a practice of answering queries of
