GOLDFIELD SUN, APRIL 30TH ' j I A telegram from Salt Lake City announces that the first shipment of 28 tons of ore from the Motgomery- 1 Shoshone Mines Co., whose property is located on the north half of Montgomery Mountain in Bullfrog, netted I fcoo per ton from the smelters. The ore was taken from across the 42 feet of vein uncovered in the Shoshone I tunnel during the first month's development work, without sorting or sampling. IS "The Shoshone ledge traverses the property I of the Montgomery Mountain Mining company." I E. A. MONTGOMERY, three-quarters owner I of the Montgomery-Shoshone mine. I "It is only of a little development work be- I fore the Montgomery end of the mountain, which ;i is the south half, will prove as great a bonanza f as the Shoshone end." MAJOR W. A. STAN- ! TON, mining engineer, formerly on the staff of ' the late John Mackay at Virginia City. I "The Montgomery property is on the strike I of the Shoshone ledge. The outcroppings on 1 Montgomery Mountain indicate that the same 1 ledge runs through both properties." MAL- COLM MACDONALD, consulting engineer of I the Montana-Tonopah Mining company. "The ore body which carrir the high values in the Shoshone unquestionably exists in the Montgomery property. The ledge is well ,clearly and distinctly defined from one end of the mountain moun-tain to the other, a distance of a mile." J. D. (CAMPBELL, mining engineer, in charge of I Charles M. Schwab's and John McKane's Gold- field and Tonopah properties. "I have prospected the ground of the Montgomery Mont-gomery Mountain Mining company half a dozen times. It is second only to the Shoshone itself, and the Shoshone is the greatest gold mine I ever saw, in a mining experience of thirty years." J. F. MITCHELL, mining engineer, formerly consulting engineer of the famous Yankee Girl mine of Colorado, and of the Ute and Ulay mines I of Colorado, and other great gold mines. The Montgomery Mountain Mining company's com-pany's property consists of seven claims, situated i on the south half of Montgomery mountain, in ! the Bullflrog district, and adjoining the Shoshone group of claims owned by the Montgomery-Sho-! shone Mines company. Stock in the Montgomery-Shoshone Mines .pompany, of the par value of $1.00, is selling at 3.00 per share in Goldfield, although the company com-pany is only a month old, and development has already been in progress for two months. Development work on the Shoshone group consists of -a tunnel driven into the side of the mountain for a distance of 110 feet, a raise to the surface of 47 feet, and of a winze 10 feet deep. There are also two drifts on the vein which have been exposed for a distance of 42 feet inside of the tunnel, and the wall of the vein has not yet been reached. The tunnel, the drifts, the raise and the winze are all in high-grade ore. HH Eminent mining engineers and practical min- HB ing men all agree that the same ledge that runs through the Shoshone runs through the Mont-fmm Mont-fmm ,gomery. Development work on a large and extensive scale has already been commenced on the prop-HV prop-HV orty of the Montgomery Mountain Mining com- mm pany. A tunnel, the site of which was located by mm Charles M. Schwab's famous mining engineer, J. D. Campbell, is being driven into the side of the mountain with all possible speed, working HI night and day, with every indication that the HB' Shoshone ledge will be encountered at from SO B to 100 feet. A tunnel is also being driven in the same HB manner about 100 feet west, with the same ob- ject in view. In addition, the company is beginning a tunnel tun-nel on its Black Bull claim, lying on the southeast south-east side of the mountain, with the intention of tapping an enormous quartz ledge, 18 feet wide, which seems to cut the Montgomery ledge almost al-most diagonally. This ledge has not even been prospected by the Shoshone people, because they have had no time to do so, but they are also now driving, with the same purpose in view. From every appearance and indication this vein will be equally as good as the Shoshone on the same ground. Tho first 28 tons of ore taken out of the Sho-shono Sho-shono tunnel across tho ledge, for a distance of 42 feet, without sorting1 or sampling, has netted the Montgomory-Shoshono Mines company $500 per ton from tho smelters at Salt Lake City. Tho Montgomory-Shoshono ledgo can bo traced on tho surface by any person, from ono end of Montgomery mountain to the other, a distance of nearly 5,000 feet, the cropplngs are so clear, distinct and well defined. It can easily be seen that It Is practically one continuous vein running In a northeasterly and southwesterly direction through tho entire mountain. It seems only a matter of a few months or loss for development work to demonstrate that tho Montgomery Mountain Moun-tain Mining company's ore bodies are just as rich and just as big as those of Its neighbor, tho Montgomery-Shoshone Minos company. Man has divided theso properties, not nature. The tracing of this ledgo is not a theoretical problom, but a simple certainty that is conceded by all who look at the property. Neither the company nor its agents are attempting at-tempting to artificially "boost" or stimulate the price of shares. They are satisfied that they have a mine, and unliko many others, it will not tako yoars to domonstrato it, because tho moment tho ledge Is cut, then shipping begins, and tho property being out of debt and money in the treasury, it Is not Improbable that tho company will begin paying pay-ing dividends within six months. Tho company is mining as economically and as practically as is possible, getting tho bc-t possible opinions, not only from ono individual but from the best mining talent in tho west, and tho work in every way will be done in a systematic and miner-like manner. Tho only wilarlod ofllcor of the company is tho secretary. Tho title to tho proporty has been oxamincd and passod upon by Vormllyoa, Edmonds & Stanley, Stan-ley, tho loading mining lawyers of Nevada. Tho proporty has boon paid for in full. Tho ground Is not bonded, but Is owned absolutely by tho company. Tho company has,' sinco acquiring tho proporty, prop-orty, had tho ground thoroughly prospected by tho bost informod prospootors of the Bullfrog region, and on numerous and many places on tho surface rock has boon found which pans very high gold valuos. At tho prosont tlmo ono of tho company's prospectors is "Al" James, who discovered tho ore on tho Montgomory-Shoshono mine before tho ownors know what a marvelous proporty they ownod. Ho vouches for tho fact that tho Mdnt-gomo-y has tho identical ledgo, and It Is on his advice, ad-vice, togothor with that of Sol Camp, who recently resigned as superintendent of tho famous January mine of Goldfield, to bocomo superintendent of this property, that the company is developing in the manner hereinbefore mentioned. Tho D. H. Peery company, bankers and brokers brok-ers of Goldfield, of which D. H. Peery is pres'leit, is the fiscal agent of tho Montgomery Moui. . .n Mining company, of which D. H. Peery Is a1 president.

Peery has interested himself Inscveral other great Bullfrog properties, and tho D. H. Peery company will handle all of these. It Is believed that by permitting th general public to partake of tho Montgomery Mountain Mining company's offering, of-fering, a largo clientele will bo gotten together for Mr. Peory's other splendid properties in Bullfrog, and it will be more profitable In tho end to do business with many Investors than a fow. An offer of $500,000 cash was made for all tho stock in the Montgomery Mountain Mining company a fortnight fort-night ago, but it was refused.

Edmonds, of tho firm of Vermllyea, Edmonds & Stanley, attornoys at law, Goldfield, Nev., director. Three dollars Is bid for shares in tho Mont-gomery-Shoshono Mines company, and if. at tho end of a few months' development work, It Is demonstrated demon-strated that tho Montgomery has tho same value, your investment should quadruple at loasL Again, If tho development work on tho Sho-shono Sho-shono proves that tho enormous voln alroady uncovered un-covered on tho Shoshone has depth, whioh all mining min-ing engineers who have Inspected tho proporty do-claro do-claro it has, then shares in tho Montgomory-Shoshono may reasonably bo expected to advance to $20.00. Mr. Peery is of tho opinion that the development de-velopment work on tho Montgomery will demonstrate demon-strate a mine as big as tho Shoshone, and that It Is only a matter of two months when Montgomery shares will keep pace in market value with Shoshone Sho-shone shares.
