Including directors, who will likely shape the policy of the company for the ensuing year. Some talk of a possible dividend is again-being discussed on the street. However, It Is the- policy of the conservative element of the company to stave the dividends oft until the mine has been more thoroughly prospected and the mill has. been put to working up to the full capacity for which It was built. The winter season has prevented the management manage-ment from keeping abreast of the mine's output because of the poor condition of the roads, and the treasurer does not show the balance on hand for ores and concentrates that is taxing the bins and to some extent delaying the mine's output. out-put. . , STAB CONSOLIDATED - " MAY BE ASSESSED. " President McMillan has advertised a call to the shareholders of the Star Consolidated Con-solidated for the purpose of getting their consent to a voluntary assessment of the stock, of the company.' While the amount to be called for has not been decided upon, it seems to be the opinion of most of the heavy shareholders that the first installment install-ment should be for 8 cents. The directors, it is understood, have decided de-cided on the distribution pro rata-of the luO.000 shares purchased- from former Manager Man-ager Packard, -and which have fceen lan-golahlng lan-golahlng ' in the treasury for about one year. This will give the company an op- Fortnnlty of getting the returns on the ull number of shares lor which the company com-pany is incorporated, and thus the J-cent share assessment would put $15,000 In the treasury, with which a shaft can be sunk from the 600-foot level a distance of H feet, and will undoubtedly reach territory terri-tory where the company can reasonably expect to encounter ome high-grade stuff that can be snipped" at a good profit. It may be necewnary for the company to call for a 1-cent a share levy at the expiration ex-piration of sixty days from the receipt of he first installment, as it will be the ..plicy to continue the development work until some good returns have been made. Jf course, drifting will be .begun as soon js a sufficient depth has been attained to satisfy Superintendent Turner that there Is some likelihood of catching the ledge by mime exploratory work in the undeveloped dc mains. - ' All- the stockholders are very much elated over-the prospects, and. are sure that- they have one of the most promising properties in the old Tintlc district. yi . ; : ; . .-. - : The stock ; exchange . was thrown ln-t ln-t o: a flurry this morning b,y the placing of some heavy' local orders for Boston Consolidated and "while the price obtained ob-tained was some lower than the buyers have. been, compelled to nay dur ng April, It was. nevertheless, cratlfylng .o note the Increased ;volume of Business Busi-ness on' the 'exchange. .

Cates of the Boston Consolidated reports a new strike' in the upraise, from ..the Peabody ;. tunnel . that snows a width on the vein of thirty feet and values from which assays of 3 per cent copper and S3 to 34 in gold and silver have been obtained. This find Is independent inde-pendent of .the various other-bodies that have been exposed within the past few months, .and Mr. Cates is of the opinion that It will develop Into one of the big ore -channels of this immense Bingham producer. Engineer' H." K. Burton has submitted his report relative to the mineral-bearing porphyry In the company's ' domains, in which he estimates that something like 400.000,000 tons of copper, silver and gold-bearing gold-bearing rock has been blocked out. I Mr. Cates departs again for camp this i morning to hasten the work. on the TerK tunnel, through which the company will have. an avenue, to ship its ores; and the advance on the drive is now progressing at the rate of five feet daily. DIXIE MINING COMPANY . '. " HAS BRIGHT PROSPECTS. The Salt ' Lake people who have fprtu-, nately got some of the Dixie Mining company's com-pany's stock will be pleased toMearn of the success the company is experiencing In its exploratory work according to the following from the Gold field Review: "W. H. Clark. . vice-president and manager man-ager 'of the Dixie Mining company, is very much elated over the uncovering of a very nice body of ore last Friday. ."This company has been sinking for several months, and has frequently been rewarded by the uncovering of rich ore bodies. At the 'O-foot level values of $d0 were obtained; at the 110. values of 3165 were found, and at the 20 an assay valued at 3350. When the 235 was reached a ledge fifteen feet wide, between walls, was uncovered, un-covered, from which values as high as tltKO were obtatned. "To add Interest to this present Instance It may be stated that a small percentage of copper is found In the ore, which, to the minds of many, means a permanency of the ore bodies. "The Dlxls company will continue sinking sink-ing until a depth of 400 feet is reached." ' ORE SHIPMENTS. Taylor-Brunton reports receiving three cars from Ttntic, and three cars from Nevada. The Pioneer has sampled one car from Bingham, two cars from Tintlc ar.d one car from Alta. V , " " FORENOON SALES. y ; Xaly. 100 at SZ25.' ; '. ' . ixrwer Mammoth.
