ouced ol0O0,OoO worth OF silver since II
commenced shipping ore, and has paid II

mills crush on monthly average of 81, 400
tons OF rock, which is approximately 1,2OC
tons daily. Last year the camp reduced
S.SlS,o0 worth of silver, or about Is rer
cent OF the total silver production Of the
United States. and in the same year paid
S22O,0co in dividends from the three mines
Twelve producing mines are under rapid
development, and nearly 1150 men are now
employed underground at the camp.
According to reports, Mason Valley has
been strong feature of the curb recently.
Production from the Mason Valley smelter,
1t Is said, is practically averaging about
100000 pounds a month. Custom ore is
coming in quite steadily, and thirty mines
ore contributing to the volume. These
shippers have been sending TO the smelter
an average of from IS 10 100 tons day,
while during June Nevada Douglas sent on
daily average OF 800 tons Of ore.
The Curb Association is said TO be conse-
Grating the British-American Tobacco
Company, and its remarks are not very
complimentary TO the British. During the
last few months-in fact, ever since Brit
ish-American Tobacco shares have been
traded in outside-various Curb Associa-
tion committees have been called in ses-
sion as often as three times day TO rule
m MI nthar rplptipp de-
liveries or transfers of British-American
shares. During the last few days the as
sociation has made no fewer than FIVE
different rulings concerning the transfer OF
British-American Tobacco Company shares
in connection with the new stock Issue.
There has been an unlimited amount Of in
quiries, both by telephone and mail, con-
cerning different points in trading in this
company.
The following extract from a report Of
the United Cigar Stores by Harry Z.
Thompson & Co. is interesting:
The Corporation of United Cigar Stores
was formed TO extend the business hereto
fore carried on by the United Cigar Stores
Company and 1t was reported that the
determination practically to double the
number Of retail cigar stores operated
throughout the country has, made neces-
sary the new organization.
up to the time of the dissolution Of the
American Tobacco Company said company
owned 100000 Of the 100000 capital
stock OF the Corporation Of United Cigar
Stores Company. Prior to the dissolution
there were only 200 stockholders, but share
holders lists are now reported TO show

George J. Whelan now has in his name
