practically as large as when the shares

ence follows:

5000 (Mex) per share was declared In

imatcly 100000 (Mcx) AS is well
known the Mexican Co Is controlled
absolutely By the United States Smclt-

and the dividends paid to date have
about eaualcd the purchase price OF

the purchase of practically all tho
stock of tho company at the rate of
$1,000 (Mcx) per share. and tho doal
has proved one of the biggest bargains
In Mexican mining history The hold

MAJESTIC PROPERTY
MAY ALLOW LEASE
vclop Ground and Now Ask for
Lease on Discovery.

The recent rich strike on the Majcs-
tic estate In Beaver county. made by
Messrs. Balm, Wagner, Jensen and
number OF Hobcr City men. who
thought they were working on their
own adjoining property. Is the talk of
tho Milford district Just now, accord
Ing TO p. B. Mexican. As soon as the
men discovered their mistake. a re-
preventative was sent direct to Boston
TO secure a lease from the Majestic
Copper company. Mr.. John M. Dick
of Boston. accompanied by his wife. is
now on the ground investigating be-
fore signing the lease.
The men were driving a shaft, pre-
sumably on their Crown Point prop
erty At n depth of so feet they
struck four-foot vein of rich ore 1t
shows 500 In gold and silver across
the entire four feet. The formation
Is lime and prophyry contact, tho
best kind of indications for that dis
trict. 1t Is an iron ore, similar to that
taken from the famous 20. X" In
the early days. The 60-foot shaft has
been carried down 125 feet. and the
rich four-foot vein is still In sight,
already giving over 60 feet of stopping
The prospect Is that something big
has been discovered on the Majestic
p. B. Mexican. at one time one
district, returned from a two weeks
visit In the Beaver and Star districts
today.
."I never saw things generally in the
mining line looking better" said he
There Is activity everywhere. and tho
grit and stick-to-it-iveness shown by
the mining men down there will surely
win out. They are making very fine
showlngs in various districts. But the
strike on the Majestic now seems to
overshadow all others. I went out and
saw 1t. and 1t is certainly big thing.
There is even considerable activity
In the old district between Milford and
Beaver. 1 was very much pleased with
the appearance of the district gen.
orally. and believe this COM
Ing season Will do much to-
wards bringing It to the front.
While there I met John T. Clark Of
Provo, who was looking over his min
Ing interests In the Star and Antelope
districts. Everyone seems satisfied
with the account the mines are giving
OF themselves; IL Is only the stocks
that are on the low tide. But that
won't last forever"

BIG STRIKE MADE IN
PRINCE CONSOLIDATED
Orc Body Encountered on Fourth
Level That Is Richer Than
All others.

According to reports that are COM
ing from Piochc, ono OF the biggest
strikes that has ever been mado nj
the Prince Consolidated property is
being opened up. But little Is said by
the local officials of the company be-
yond admitting that such strike has
been made The latest strike is IN
vein containing considerable galena.
which is the first to be found In the
property.
For somc time the company has
been following a stringer of ore that
made in vertical flssure. This has
at last run into a large body OF ore
making out in a bcddcd plane.
The ore WAS found on the 400 foot
level and In IN altogether new part OF
the mine and away from any OF the
other ore bodies. Thus far no con-
ncction with them has been discovered.
The ore has been followed for dis
tance OF S5 feet and during the entire
length 1t has been In ore. The vein
has vertical thickness of IA feet and
its dimensions otherwise have not been
determined As one person described
It. there might be lake of ore.
Throughout the vein there arc
punches OF galena and an excess of
iron ore The values are higher for
the size of the ore body than anything
found before In the mine. 1t Is de-
clared that the present strike alone
would make good mine in itself
Since the washout of the Salt Lake
route the Prince Consolidated like 9TH
er properties OF the district has had to
run with a small force.
