GoLDFlElo CONSOLIDATED.
Directors Pass Dividend to Build up
Cash Reserve.

At meeting of directors OF IN,
Goldhcld Cons. Mines co. IL was de.
c.dcd not TO declare the rcgular quar-.
terly disbursement of 30 cents shar,
due at this time.
After the meeting of the directors
Secretary \. \. Howe gave out the
following statement
THE directors of the company con-
Cluded To omit the disbursement of a
dividend on Jan. 81. 1918.
To date the company's dividend dis
bursements have equalled s23, $50. O67.
Dividends 1T the rate OF thirty cents
per share require quarterly net earn
ings OF Sl,O6I74l. The earnings of the
company at the present time and for
the past two calendar quarters have
been less than the above amount. The
fact that prior earnings have been
large in excess of dividend Geeu..
has permitted a continuance OF large
dividends long after the earnings had
fallen below these requirements. This
has been apparent from the quarterly
statement each month.
The MANAGEMENT was committed To
tho maintenance Of a large cash re-
serve until the enlargement and per-
lection Of the compauy's plant made
:, continuance OF that policy no longer
necessary.
Accordingly, the net earnings of the
company have been largely distributed
to stockholders and only such a reserve
has been latterly maintained as was
deemed by the directors To be prudent. |
