Wednesday evening. Mr. Perkes discussed at length the history of credit rating agencies, and gave a detailed account of the system used in the organization with which he is connected.

At the tim the last dividend was declared it was reported that unless there was something to interfere with mining operations the property would be able to retain Its place among the dividend payers. Any change since that time has been for the better, according to reports, and shareholders have reason to believe that they will be able to take down profits with 'some degree of regularity. Nearly forty machine drills are now being used in the Iron Blossom and an order has been placed for quite a lot of new equipment, including a number of- machine drills. The leasing system, operated under a more liberal fashion jhan existed in past years, is bringing good results and making, money for thecompany and its employees.
