The following report TO the stock
holders Of the Lucky Tigre combina-
ton gold mining company shows
that the company is in a highly
prosperous condition and that its fI-
ture is most promising:
To the president and board OF d.
rectors OF the Lucky Tisre-Combi-
nation Gold mining company, Kan
sas City. Missouri:
Gentlemen: The following report
for the year ending December 81,
is09, is based on the operations OF
the Tire Mining company S. A., OF
Mexico. 100 per cent Of which IS
owned BY your corporation.
Your property is located in The
state Of Sonora. fifty-two miles south
OF the international boundary line
and is fify-five miles southeast OF
the city OF Douglas, Arizona
! Since you acquired the mine in
1903. it has produced $S.442.6S3.74,
combined gold and silver values.
During the year 1880 tons OF ore
were broke in themine OF which
1911 tons were shipped to the smelt-
ers of the Phelps-Dodge Copper com
pany. and to the American Smelling
and Refining company. S7.72i tons
were milled. the difference remaining
in the Slopes as broken ore. The
value of the ore milled for the entire
year averaged s24e5 U. S. currency
per ton. without including the value
OF the shipping ore. The mill pro
duced 223, tons of concentrates.
The receipts from the sale OF ore
and concentrates amounted to 81 0s7.-
1926. leaving net profit after de
Quoting operating charges. freight
and treatment rates. interest on
bonds. taxes. etc. OF s5s6.57e.99. he

previous year.
From this amount you paid in div

feet You now have a total Of 256

per cent. of which is blocked ont on
four sides, the remaining ten per
cent. being blocked out on three
sides.
You may also reasonably estimate
that another 10000 tons of probable
ore. much of which is already ex-
posed on one and two sides.
In addition 10 the above you have
$4,000 tons OF tailings containing a
gross value of 1896 per ton, which
can be treated in the new mill with
a profit of s5.94 per ton. The profit
from the treatmentof the tailings
now on hand and those which viii
be produced during the construction

sufficient to pay for both the new

is helm exposed. At the northern
end OF your property the main vein
is now being explored with very prom
ising results. There is still over
$3.50 feet Of the main vein entirely
unexplored.
During the year the Seitz vein was
discovered 500 feet east of the main
vein and 134 feet OF drifting was
done on it: small lunches OF ship
ping ore were encountered.
The sooy vein. COO feet west Of
the Tisre vein. now has 1925 tons Of
payable ore exposed on four sides.
New Discovery Made.
Towards the end OF 1909 high
grade ore was encountered in two
Slopes in the main ore body, and
curing January. 1910. 15S tons OF ore
we're shopped to the FL Paso Smelt-
ing works. assayiag lO.6 ounces of
gold and 3947 ounces Of silver per
ton. SC0.30l19 was realized from
the sale of three carloads of this ore.
We are still shipping from these
slopes.
In December a contract was en-
tered into with the American Smelt-
ing an refining company for the pur-
chase Of your high grade ore and
concentrates. affecting a saving of
over $500 per ton as compared with
yolr previous contract.
Your company has closed a con.
tract for the purchase OF $4,000 acres
OF land; your mine being situated
near the center OF the tract. This
land is valuable for the protection
Of your numerous interests. and con-
iains many years supply OF timber
and cordwood.
New Mil and Power Plant.
On account OF the fact that your
ore reserves are so large that you
are now developing new ore at the
rate OF 10000 tons annually. work
was commenced on the design Of q
new power plant to increase youI
mill capacity from 100 tons 20 251
tons per day, together with the ad
ditioD Of 250 ton cyanide plant.
Mr.. D. l. H. Forbes, who has just
completed the construction OF the
new Esperanza mill at Fl ORC, Mex
leo. has been engaged for this work
and his report and plans have al
ready been approved. Work rs also
started on the construction of a 1906
horse power steam plant and electric
transmission line. thiFty-one miles
long, from Ysabel on the Nacozari
railroad to the mine Mr. John
Langton of New York has been en-.
gagged to design this plant. and We
believe both it and the new mill win
be in operation by December 81
1910.
Arrangements have been made
with the firm of Messrs. Deloiette
PIender Grifhths & Co. 10 audit you
accounts for the present year.
Our relations with the authorities
of the State OF Sonora continue to be
of the most excellent and satisiac-
tory character.
Every department Of your organi
zation Is in excellent and emcient
condition. and / take this opportu-
nifty OF expressing my appreciation OF
he satisfactory way the work has
been carried on by all the employees
OF the company during the year
which is the most prosperous you
nave ever had.

Wytheville. Va. July 22.--Robert
Hudson. a white man, was shot and
killed and two others wounded in an
ARRAY at Max Meadows this morning
about 1890 o'clock by Robert Walk.
The trouble occurred at baseball
game. Hudson created disturbance,
and Constable George Alfred attempted
TO arrest and remove him, when he
and his two sons resisted. Walk was
called on by the constable to aid him,
when the Hudsons turned on Walk.
In the difficulty Hudson was shot Just
below the heart, living only about ten
minutes after receiving the wound.
one OF Hudson's sons. a boy about
eighteen years of age. was shot in
the back, the ball ranging around his
body and coming out OF his breast.
Walk was also shot in the arm. but
whether by Hudson, some one in the
crowd or himself, he does not know.
Two of Hudsons sons participated in
the ARRAY. the older being the one
shot. The other ran home, short dis
lance, and got a gun. but fortunately
II was not loaded, which prevented fur
Their bloodshed.
Hudson had lost two brothers by
violent deaths. Walk came to wythe-
vile TO have his wound dressed in
charge OF special constable. 1t Is
thought Hudson was drinking, as 1t is
known that he got a supply OF whis-
key the night before.
