MINING FORMS

The first rejection under the new
~ adopted form A-O-2 of the Sc
curities and Exchange commission
at Washington. D. c., is now of
record & Montana miners who have
mine stocks under the new regula-
tions are watching the experiences
of others with interest.
The first stop order was issued
against the Ypres Cadillac Mines
Limited, prospecting rather than
IA mining enterprise. Shares had
been traded in Canada before reg
istration in this country. Three
efforts had been made to find ore
each ending in failure and the new
financing was to 'start all over
again on some other group Of
claims" 1t was not disclosed.
however that work had been dis
continued on two of the three
groups of claims. This resulted
IN misstatements and COMMISSIONS
There was also questions whether
c. r. Jenner brother of w. ]. p.
Jenner. was a promoter. w J
Jenner formed the company and
secured the claims from his broth
er for 100000 shares of the eapi-
tai stock of his company. c. r.
Jenner did not handle any of the
details of the Incorporation of the
company but his close relationship
to the enterprise led the commission
to conclude that he was actually
a promoter and should have been
listed as such.
In the findings is the following
statement:
I'm constituting the definition Of "pro.
moter" as applied to the foregoing Dir
cumstances 1t must be borne in mind.
that form A-O-1 is designated for the

The first skirmish under the new
U. S. Land office policy regarding
esteading-mining claim clashes
was won by the homesteader in the
Great Falls land office this week
when Tom F Cordially, register, up
held the homestead entry of Ant

Deer Lodge
Gold Greek Mining Co. and Ber-
nard sauber opposed the home

gold on the land and that 1t was
valuable for mining than for stock
raising.
A policy in regard to such con-
flicts was handed down on Novem-
Der s. 1897 by the U. S. Land
office. which deprives the home
steader OF the advantage he has
formerly held, against the miner
The rule has been that the pre-
ponderance of evidence to mineral
discovery must be Overwhelming for
the claim to prevail over the home
stead. The old rule is, quoting
from 1877 U. S. S1S:
when the controversy IS be-
tween two mineral claimants, the
rule respecting sufficiency Of dis
covery of mineral is more liberal
than when it is between an agricul-
tural entry, for the reason that
where land is sought to be taken
out of the category of agricultural
lands the evidence if its mineral
character should be reasonably

1t will not effect short selling on
a rising market, however.
SEC officials explained informally
that shorts have a desirable STABILIZE
ing effect on rising market tend
ing to prevent harmful blooms
The aim of the new regulations
it was indicated, is to prevent short
selling from converting a falling
market into a demoralized rout.
At present the ''big boards" own
regulations forbid selling stock
short at a price less than the last
previous sale. Thus the government
regulations are somewhat stricter
than those of the New York mart.
Short selling, according to the
SEC definition. is the sale of "a Sc
curity which the seller does not
own, or any sale which is consum-
mated by the delivery of a borrow
ed security"
A short seller is actuated by the
hope that before he has to deliver
the goods. he can buy them at lower
prices and thus reap a profit.
