STATEMENT MADE BY
THE LONE STAR CON

Secretary J. S. Henderson OF the Lone
Star Consolidated company or the Gold
field district has issued the following
statement TO tho shareholders under
date OF October IS:
Since the last report vas mailed TO
the stockholders, early last month, op-
eriLtions have continued along the lines
then set forth. Drifts have been eX-
tended from the shaft, northwest and
southeast. for distances OF 1ao and 1870
feet, respectively. both on the 520-foot
levnl From tho north drift sixty-five
feet from the shaft. a crosscur was
started and has boen advanced twenty
five feet, In nn easterly direction. at
right angles to the Drift. In this cross
cut the formation exposed Is highly
silicified and OF encouraging character.
IN the south drift the forn,a tion is
shown to be taking its natural dip 10 the
cast, At a point farther along In this
drift another crosscut Will be driven TO
explore contiguous ground
With the aid OF the new equipment
good progress has been made and the
machine drills are giving the fullest salts
faction IN their work. In a period of
thlrty-seven days tho drifts have been
advanced 2a5 feet, which Is an excellent
record, allowing for tho minor delays
and Interruptions inseparable from this
character Of work Development will be
continued along these lines with all pos
sible vIgor.

SHAPE THE FEDERAL

We understand that during September
the Federal Mining & Smelling company
made a net profit of $4,000 after all pos
sible deductions had been made. This
figure is SGT 900 above The present per

ferre1 stock, and s17 900 above the nom-
pany's former dividend rate Of I per

this year, say Thompson, ToWlc & CO.
have been steadily increasing during tho
past year and the iiglres for the month
Just closed correspond with S5So00 for
September. 1911. The larger earnings are

vance In silver which has taken place
during this period
On the compapYs average prod dGctlon
of around 5000, 600 pounds of lead por

for the average price Is now lilo cents
per pound, while during the fiscal year
ending August 81. 1912. IL was approx
matcly 40 cents per. pound. This means
additional monthly profits TO the Federal
