Z. L. Luker of Grand Island, Neb.,
secretary and treasurer OF the Gold
Prince Mining & Leasing company,
has returned to his home after a
three days visit of inspection to
the old Gold Crater Consolidated
Mining company property in the Gold
Crater district, east of Goldfield,
which his company is operating un-
der long term lease and bond OBJ
tanned several months ago from
Thomas D. Murphy of Goldfield, its
present owner. Mr.. Luker thor
oughly sampled the ore bodies ex-
posed on the various levels of the
property and was we'll pleased with
the assay returns he obtained.
Since the resumption of work on
the property about two months ago,
miners have been making needed re-
pairs to the 265-foot shaft and put
ting the drifts on the vein on the
40, 210 and 265-foot levels in shape
for extensive operations. Consider
able surface prospecting has also
been done with pleasing results
milling ore of excellent grade hav-
ing been opened up at number of
new places along the vein. Prepara-
tions are now being made by Gener-
al Manager Charles Orr for the early
erection of a small milling plant.
The character of the plant to be
erected has not yet been decided
upon. but it is known that its ca
pacity will be equivalent at least to
that of n 6uo CT mill

The conditions prevailing in the
various properties of the Goldfield
Consolidated Mines company are
clearly reflected by the report OF pro-
ductiOn and earnings for the third
calendar quarter of this year and the
preliminary estimate of the output
and net profits for the month OF Oc-
tober, both of which were recently
made. public by A. ii. Howe, secre-
tary and treasurer. The quarterly
statement shows that during the
months of July, August and Septem-
Der the company mill treated total
of 1865 dry tons of ore. The re-
covered values tOtaled $91 S,0SS.26,
and operating expenses Sol 6,S7I.|b
leaving net profits of $401, ,21O.49.
After paying the balance of $374,2
due on the purchase price OF the con-
troll of the Aurora Consolidated Mines
company, the Goldfield Consolidated
Mines company had on hand in cash
and bills receivable approximately
$697 900 at the end of the quarter
named. The report, copies OF which
announces that the company deems
it inexpedient to disburse a dividend
for the quarter. The October pre-
liminary estimate shows noteworthy
increases in both the tonnage pro-
duced and the net profits over those
of the preceding month. The Octo-
ber output amounted to 1850 tons
as against 27,S71 tons in September,
an increase of 7S9 tons. and the Oc-
tober net profits $149,0O0 as against
$12O,599 in September, an increase
of $28,401.
Jumbo Extension
The Jumbo Extension has shown
no signs of relinquishing the stellar
position it has held for about two
months in the list of local mines.
On the contrary, it has given every
possible indication that it will con-
tinue the bright articular star OF
the local horizon for some time to
come, due largely. if not wholly, to
the splendid yield of the deep lev
els of the Velvet claim, the purchase
of which from the Goldfield Merger
Mines company was only recently
completed by the liquidation OF the
balance of $4,000 six months
in advance of the date fixed for the
payment of the final monthly install
ment of $4,000. In addition to max
ing possible the completion or the
Velvet purchase. the companv mas
been enabled through the output OF
high grade ore in the last two months
to declare the second dividend in its
entire history. Declared about two
weeks ago, the dividend will be fve
cents a share and will be paid on
December Is to stockholders OF rec
ord of November 20. The approach
of the record date, coupled with con-
tinued splendid output of the mine,
has particularly of late made the
stock of the company an exceedingly
active leader on the mining exchang-
es of both San Francisco and New
York. and, in consequence. 1T has
been enjoying a steady rise in price.
The prediction made by Vice Pres
ident Charles s. Sprague two weeks
ago that the October net pronts
would amount to $4,000 has peen
more than borne out by the figures
contained in the official preliminary
estimate of the net realization TOT
the month named, which has just,
been made public. According to the

cording to General Superintendent
Harry B. Clapp, the mine has des-
patched to the Millers sampler of the
Western CEs Purchasing company
five carloads or approximately f25O
tons. Recent developments in the
mine have beer of a routine charac-
ter. On the 250-foot level north and
south OF the main working shaft, a
good tonnage Of pay ore is being ex-
tracted from an old stope on the
main Florence vein Above an old
northeast drift on the same level,
raising continues on three feet of
shipping ore. Above the west cross
cut off the main north drift on the
53O-foot level, raise is being ex-
tended on low grade quartz in the
ola Wheeler lease vein to make
connection with the 2SO-foot level
OF the old leasehold. After the con-
nection is made, branch raise off

meet with v'inZe sunk in the early
days OF the camp by the lessees be-

Merger and Atlanta
The actual resumption of develop
ment work on the 1750-foot level of
the property of the Atlanta Mines
company by way of the st. Ives or
main working shaft of the Goldfield
Merger Mines company has been
slightly delayed by the fracture of
foot valve on one of the two large
pumps installed by the latter COM
pany. A new valve has been in
stalled and the pumps-one on the
125-foot level and the other on the
l15O-foot level-are again raising
water from the sump of the 1900
foot shaft. The water that accumu-
lated behind the eight-foot concrete
bulkhead built in the long southwest
crosscut into the Atlanta ground on
the 1750-foot level about six months
ago when the flow from the big vein
increased to an enormous volume, is
being drawn off slowly and permitted
to gravitate to the sump of the Mer-
ger shaft. The crosscut will be COM
pletely drained in day or two and
then passageway will be cut
