Both these properties belong to the
Wingfeld people. The former company

worked under lease. Write A. ii. Howe,
Goldfeld, for more information.
r. O. Y, Los Angeles We could not
undertake to give you full
on the Goldfeld Consolidated, Goldfeid
Florence and Combination Fraction IN
these columns. If you watch our news
columns from week to week you VIII
get all this information. The Consoli-
dated and Florence are both great
mines, with miles of underground work
ings. are producing and milling heavily
right along. The Consolidated has just
issued it's annual report, from which
we quoted literally in our last W
issues; the Florence is about to issue a
report. You can get either or both by
writing to the secretary of the eompa-
MES at Goldfeld. The Combination
Fraction is out of ore but is steadily
prospecting.
J. Give do not advise you to pay
the assessment. The property apparent
ly has little value-at least none has
ever been evidenced by the work lone
on it-and the work done, to be sure,
was simply surface assessment work.
But the property has no future.
E. T., San Francisco.-We cannot
give you the plans of the promoters of
the Conquere r-Hibernia merger. Such a
merger was announced some months
ago, but since we nave heard nothing
from it. Write A. H. Howe, secretary.
j. H. M, New York.-The Nevada
Leasing company has a long time been
out of existence. 1t had a lease on the
Florence and worked the lease until it
expired, when the lease was taken over
by f. R. Argersinger, and the work
continued for a time, but no ore was
owned six claims in the Buckskin dis
trict, but it is probable that these
claims were allowed to revert to the
public domain for they were not pat
ented. The officers of the company
were w. H. blank Smith), president;
Voney B. Leonard, vice president; A.
E. Oahse, secretary, and G.. N. Slack,

know.
w. D., San Francisco.-We have no

get a reply.
w. T. G., Seattle, Wash.-Only the
annual assessment work has been done
on the Tom Jaggers-Tule Canon mine.
Edward T. Patrick is secretary, located
at Goldfeld. (2) Jack Davis is in
South or Central America and A. X.
Wheeler is no longer in Goldfeld, and
so far as we can learn, they are not
working any of their various properties.
In fact outside of a few properties at
Wonder very little work is being done
at that camp.
T. j. s., Canton, O.-The Red Top M.
& l.. c., has gone out of business, their
lease having expired. No ore was ever
found, although at one time it was full
ly expected that they would get into
the pay. johnson and Cottle, the pro
moters, are now operating in oil in
California.
H. E. R., Milwaukee. This new
scheme of which you write, consolidating
two companies, or rather, transferring
the assets of two companies to the third,
may or not be all right. We have not
much confidence in either company.
That bond-issuing proposition is a great
scheme, If it will only work. 1t sounds
well, but stockholders must remember |
That In issuing bonds a mortgage is Civ
