president Nichols stated that the con-
version clause was the attractive feature
OF the issue and that Il was the only
way the loan could be made.
Eeea roinS the development OF the prop
erty, Mr; Nichols stated that the limits
OF the Hidden Creek ore reserve had not
been reached. The main tunnel. he said
was 1900 to 1000 feet In length on the
outside Of that 100 feet apart, connected
by crosscuts. The character of the ore
was pretty much the same as that at
Phoenix except. he said. that II CON
tained about twice as much conner as
did the ore AT Phoenix"
Mr.. Nichols said that other properties
were under Investigation but that he
did not think 1t proper to discuss thom
AT this time.
President Nichols was asked II IL was
the intention OF the management TO nav
dividends regularly on the present stock
or whether the money derived from the
sale OF bonds was TO be applied 10 meet
the expenses In developing the Hidden
Creek property.
He replied that the directors or the
company did not believe in allowing the

The company at the present time does
not owe a dollar and has a little more
than $1,000 900 in It's treasury To date
about s1.0o0,500 has been expended on the
new property and the cash now In the
treasury will be applied TO complete thai
work. The money derived from the bond
Issue will be placed In the company's
treasury.
Mr.. Nichols said that he could not
speak for his co-directors on the matter
Of dividends. but his personal idea was
that tie development OF the Hidden Creek
property would continue and that soms
return dividends would be paid 10 stock

Failed to Got Insurance.

A Chicago insurance broker made an
attempt last week to write an accident
policy for $780, covering the hands
and arms of Il ragtime pianist who has
a reputation in the middle west, and who
was about to go on IL tour OF the United
States The broker found II impossible
to place the risk. HIS investigation de-
veloped the fact that in spite OF the
glaring stories which have been published
concerning the large amounts carried on
the fingers Of Paderewski, the throat Of
Caruso and the wrists of Kubelik, Lon
don Lloyds will not write accident poll
cles of this Nature outside OF continental
Europe; AS far as can be learned the
son for their discrimination against
Americans In this respect. but it is be-
lieved that they have less confidence In
methods of travel and precautions against
accidents on this side OF the pond. +"
The Investigation proved, however that
American accident companies are not
taking any extra chances by insuring
artists and musicians any more heavily
than they do the professional men OF
other lines,

FACTORS THAT TEND
TO DISTURB NATION
Review of Situation Brings
Many Problems Out for
Close Study.

Grouping the unfavora bic and retard-
ing factors OF 1912 together brings into
bold relief the Balkan war and its pos
sible Continental ramitlcations; the GER
tainty of tariff revision by the coming
congress; the money trust investigation
and the unsettlemcnt produced; the
Union Pacific Southern Pacific dissolution
decision. and the possibility OF further
antitrust suits. II Is not surprising,
therefore. that with all OF these condi-
tions warrantinr careful analysis. and
other remaining unsettllng factors. the
opening of the year 1913 was not greeted
with any very marked degree OF enthu-
slasm by the financial world.
But Notwithstanding all of the uncer-
tainty and perplexity confronting the Sc
curity markets, there still remain many
factors OF Il favorable trend at least, and
proach OF threatened evils may be ex-
pected to disclose less real foundation
and be more easily disposed OF than many
would now consider possible. Everything
OF a substantial nature In the worlds
development may be said to start with
the ground itself. and with the record
Of the past three crop years and what
they produced in the way OF prosperity,
hopeful to express the prediction that
prosperity and absence OF tension may
be shown In 1913. and the same ability
TO adjust itself to current conditions will
be shown by these United States as
they have In other and perhaps more
critical periods In their national his
tory.
In any event. something of a compro-
mise between the so-cailed eXtravagant
hopes OF the western states and the
gloom and depression OF the eastern flnan-
cial markets may be expected TO result.
Business may not continue on Its pres
ent basis, and tariff revision may exert
considerable Influence upon the corpora
tions whose products Will be most d.
rectly affected. but II given only the
opportunity, the business world will prove
capable of adjusting Itself to new con-
ditions. and in the longer run TO tri-
umph over theIn.-Spencer Trask q Co..
