 OVER MONTE CARLO

UVtk nUnl[ CAkLU
 o. B. Dawson, chief examiner of the Ohio Department of Commerce division of securities, accompanied by Jerold C.: Lane, of Greenville, Ohio were in Kingrnan early this week look ing into the titles and property of the Monte Carlo Gold and Silver min ing company, which has been taken over by the Ohio Gold and Silver Min ing company. The gentlemen were met in Kingman by Walter Myers, who took them out to the property and a thorough examination made of the veins and the openings. g..
 The Monte Carlo property is situat- ed close to the property of the Arl- zona Tellurium company, about l5 miles, east of Kingman, in the north end of the Wallapai mountains. While in the hands of the company an adit drift was run on the vein 200 feet and some good looking. ore opened. Shallow shafts have been sunk at var ious points along the vein, some of them showing excellent values. High grade silver-gold ore has been found on this property, and the adjoining property gave up some of the richest ore found in that section. The veins are promising and with development below the leached zone we believe they will become shippers of high grade ore. All the veins of that sec tion have shown excellent ore 50 far as development was carried, but the real value of that section have never been developed into the sulphide, with exception of the old Jonathan and Et- ta property. The property is we'll sit uated for economical operation, be- ing close to the main highway and ac- cessable to automobile and truck.
 We understand that it is the inten- ton of the new owners of the prop erty to begin active development af- ter the first of the year. A large equipment will be put in and the shaft carried to a depth of 500 feet and the veins crosscut and explored. If this work is carried out we feel sure that the company will bring in big producing property. Walter Myers, who knows the mines of that section like an open book, will have charge of development. MT. Myers has been mining in that section the past 15 years and is now the owner of ex- cellent mining property.
 Interested in the new corporation are a number of prominent Ohio people, among whom are E. B. Reed, of Bradford, Ohio; J. K. Albright, c. A. Martin, of Greenville, Ohio; J. w. Blakely, Dayton, Ohio, and Guy A. Gowen, of Chicago. These men will take care of the financing of the com pany, in conjunction with MT. Lane. One of the important features of the taking over of this property by the Ohio company is the situation of the mines SO close in, where develop ment may be carried on with despatch and at low costs. While the country is granite in character the Monte Carlo veins are situated in what is known as the biotitic belt, this belt coming through the country from a short distance north of Cedar and running the whole length of the east side of the range. In it are situated some of the most important veins ot the county. The Leviathan, Diamond Joe and many others of the old pro- ducers are in this formation. To the south of it are the American Flag the Dean, Mississippi, Mariposa Wheeler and other claims that have produced much high grade ore.
 Messrs. Dawson and Lane left fo, the coast Monday night and will re- turn to Ohio within the next ten days where a report will be submitted to tho dono r-tnnont of cornnoarco
