Americans Put Proposition
Up to Mexican
Government.
GAS PLANT INSTALLED
Copper Production for
Month Of August
Usual Amount.

Mexico City, Mex. Oct. 1S.-The
Aurora Mining Company, with prop
critics at Xichu, Guanajuato. is in
stalling a new gas plant which will
be completed within a short time.
If it proves success other min
ing companies in that district will in
stall similar plants.
The Restauradora de Veta Grande
Mining Company has leased its mines
to the Cha. Minera y Beneficiadora
del Norte which will establish a re-
duction plant on the ground for treat
ing the ores.
The production of the Boleo mines
during the month of August was GIG
tons of ore of 4.43 per cent copper.
This is an increase of several tons
over the preceding months produc-
ton.
Dividend Is Declared.
The Chontalpan Mining Company
has declared its seventeenth dividend
payable at the offices of the company
in Mexico City on and after October
81.
The American mining congress has
proposed to the Mexican government
that the annual exposition for 1924
be held in Mexico City.
If this is brought about it will
have the effect of bringing the mining
interests of the two republics closer
together and will no doubt bring
additional foreign capital here for in
yestment in mines.
At meeting of the San Pedro
Analco Mining COMPANY presided ovrr
by the president Charles Schulze it
WAS proposed to offer the mines per-
tanning to the company 10 the Ne
gociecion de San Rafael Y Anexas.

OLD HOLDINGS IN
ULOTLAN DISTRICT
Number OF Stockholders
Haze Faith in Propo-
sit:on.

Guadalajara, Mexico, Oct. 1s.-The
Tree Amigos Mining company of which
Francisco del Llano is president, is
making preparations to operate its
mines in the Jilotlan district of this
state.
This company was organized in 1916
during period when paper money was
in circulation and afterwards re-or-
ganized, placing the capitalization on
a Mexican gold basis.
Two shafts were sunk, one to a
depth OF approximately 100 feet and
another to nearly 40 feet.
Both are in ore, which assays from
% to 500 grams of gold and an aver
age of 60 ounces silver.
The properties are located about 20
miles from the nearest station and
transportation OF the ores is rather a
difficult problem until the roads are
placed in better condition.
1t requires a long days ride 70 reach
the mine in one day on horseback.
A number of the stockholders, how
ever, have faith in the proposition and
will contribute sufficient capital to re-
sumo operations and make ore ship
ments.
