GREAT GOLDFIELD RECORDS. ' Since the closing down of the mines of the Goldflekl camp, there has been almost a steady decline in the prices of all of the stocks, regardless of the merits of' the ground., Some of the stocks have bad records that are nothing short of sensational. While It has been unfortunate unfortun-ate for the mining and business interests of Goldfleld that the strike of employees has tied up business of the entire camp. It is only fair to take Into consideration some of the records of production that were made by the mines previous to the close-down. In the case of the great Mohawk mine. It Is shown that this great property produced pro-duced more than $7,000,000 worth of ore In six months, or- at the rate of $24,000 a day, and it Is said that -the mine is Ip a condition to eclipse this record Just as soon as the new company has taken over the ground, and outlined the new campaign cam-paign of development. Other great properties are said to have an abundance of ore on and. and recent developments In the Florence properties look more promising than the great ledges that were taken out of the Mo-. hawk. May Day and Nevada Hills proved to be the leading features of this morning's call, the former coming out freely at 271 and 27c, while the latter continued strong at $4.35 and $4.J"l. Uncle Sam Con., too, remained strong at 68c cash and 69c 'on a buyer's option. Colorado Mining although al-though strong, sold but 600 shares at $2.25. Mountain Lake like the balance of the sellers continued on the favorable side of the market. Tetro recorded the final sale of the session at 101c. The remainder of the board, while no sales were recorded, showed strength in i almost every" Instance, It going to show I that although the trading Is quiet the prices remain extremely steady. During the open board trading a fairly representative repre-sentative number of the favorites got Into line with prices continuing strong, while the transfers were by no means . light. Colorado Mining continued In demand at $2.25. with Ingot cashing in at 9,1c. May Day, Mountain Lake and Nevada Hills remained steady at regular call rates. Star Con. passed over 1400 at 351c, while Uncle Sam was freely taken at 6Rc. Tankee Con. put in 200 at 44c. The market closing on the following prices: 1 Ing to confess that this strike Is the real cause of the advance in the stock. However, How-ever, it is admitted that enough Importance Impor-tance is attached to the development to cause the management to place a force of men to work at that point In the ground. An open cut will be run to determine de-termine the best method of locating the trend of the ledge, and then there will be extensive operations to get the desired results. REMOVAL CONFIRMED. Official confirmation of the Intention of Manager D. C. Jackllng of the Utah Copper company to remove his headquarters head-quarters from this city to Los Angeles, has been received. In an Interview ' given out by President Charles M. Mac-Neil Mac-Neil In Los Angeles, he says that Jack-ling Jack-ling will move to that city that he may take charge of the new copper company that has just been launched. The intention inten-tion of Jackllng to leave this city and turn over his work to Superintendent Gemmel, who represents the Guggen-helms, Guggen-helms, - waa announced in these columns several days ago, and was an occasion for many expressions of surprise from! local mining men. In speaking of the new company that has been organised at Los Angeles and the properties which are to be the scene of extensive operations, Charles M. Mac-Neil Mac-Neil said: "I know many reports have been circulated cir-culated about the sale of the Ray and Cavanaugh mines, hut the facta are now made public for the first time. Associated Asso-ciated with Mr. Aldrlch, Mr. Jackllng and myself are Interests In Utah, Colorado, Colo-rado, New York, Ixndon and IjOs Angeles. An-geles. The properties are located six miles north of Kelvin on the new ma4n line of the Santa Fe. in Pinal county. Arizona, and only a short distance from the Gila river. They cover nearly 2500 acres of porphyry containing a blanket vein or deposit of disseminated chalco-clte, chalco-clte, having a known thickness of 160 to 300 feet. We believe the properties are the most promising copper mines In the country today and we will expend several millions of dollars In developing them. "We have organised two companies among ourselves to handle the properties. These companies are controlled by the same syndicate, the officers of both being be-ing the same. Mr. Aldrlch is the president, presi-dent, I am vice-president. E. P. Stove of Colorado Springs, secretary and treasurer. treas-urer. The directorate will be composed of Messrs. Aldrlch. MacMVell. Spencer Penrose. Philip Wiseman. Seeley W. Mudd, Charles H. Cutting, John Annan and J. G. Gordon. We expect to greatly enlarge the mill rapacity and will probably prob-ably eventually have a mill as large as the big one we are operating now on the Utah Copper company property. Los Angeles An-geles will be our base of operations and we expect to establish headquarters here. This will be convenient, as the new Wickenburg cut-oft on the Santa Fe will bring that section of Arllona In close touch with this city." Bid. Asked.

Encouraging reports have reached the local ofnceSfcOf the Cedar Mining company com-pany from fhe mine in Beaver county, to the effect that the winze, which is being be-ing dropped from the 275-foot level, has encountered a strong body of ore. This lower working gfVes the mine a depth of more than 300 feet. At this point the ore Is much stronger than at any other portion of the property thus far opened, and the vein has widened, a couple of feet wider than Is shown in the level above." The management has decided to go down about twenty-five feet deeper, and from that point drifts will be started toward the ore bodies that have been exposed In the upper workings. The boiler for the new hoisting plant is being bricked In and as soon as this plant is completed a compressor will be sent out to the property In order that the work of development may be more expeditiously expe-ditiously 'handled. It Is planned for the company to send out regular consignments consign-ments of ore and a car of the precious product Is now being haule to the loading load-ing station at the railroad. At the Cedar extension, which Is largely large-ly held by the shareholders of the Cedar ground, a shaft has been sent down sixty feet, and some fine ore has been exposed In this working. This drive will be continued con-tinued to a considerable depth, after which there will be Installed the necessary neces-sary equipment, and, the property thoroughly thor-oughly prospected. All otlhe surface and present Indications Indica-tions In the new workings Indicate that this property is destined to play an im- . portant part In the rejuvenated Beaver count v mining districts. That it will be a producer within a short time is the opinion opin-ion of many of the mining men who have inspected the territory. AMALGAMATED CHARTERED. Among the mining companies that filed articles of Incorporation late yesterday afternoon, was the Ely Amalgamated Copper, which has offices In this city.

A message received In this city this morning announces the uncovering of a vein of free gold ore on the side of the Bonanza Mountain, overlooking Rhyollte, Nev. This discovery was made by the graders at work on the Goldfleld extension exten-sion of the Las Vegas ft Tonopah rail- road, as the road haa only been completed as far as the . Gibraltar mine. These graders were set to work several weeks ago blasting the rock along the side of the mountain for a right of wav that would pass along by the Tramp Consolidated Consoli-dated nflne. The discovery was made at a point on the side of the mountain about 100 feet above the desert level, and the red ore, that will average better than $15 a ton, was taken out and used as ballast for the new roadbed, while some of the men pocketed samples of the rock that has an abundance of free gold that Is visible to the naked eye. This discovery Is said by some to be one of the most Important developments that have been made In this company's possessions, and has had the affect of boosting the stock in the open markets an average of 15 per cent. Officials of the company are now wlll-i wlll-i i . , DEVELOPING MANHATTAN. Ever sTnce the announcement was made that a custom milling plant Is to be put In at Manhattan this summed, more than the usual Interest has been manifested in those diggings, whih have a fabulous amount of rock that will yield handsome profits just as soon as a reduction plant Is Installed to handle the mineral bearing bear-ing porphyry. Immediately upon the heels of this snnouncement comes the good tidings that a party of California capitalists has been organized to put In a cable road from Manhattan to the railroad at Miller's siding. This line is to be completed and in operation not later tfian July, and when It Is in operation opera-tion there Is certain to he an Increase in the operations of the mining properties Inr that district. Salt Lakers are largely interested in the diggings of Manhattan. Those who have pinned their faith on the ultimate outcome of that district have never lost faith In the camp's getting the credit that was due it as soon as the proper facilities were placed at the disposal of the operators for the reduction and transportation trans-portation of the product. It is bejied that the fondest hopes of the pioneers of that section are about to be realized, and It seems assured that the summer will witness solme wonderful developments in the Manhattan section. NEVADA HILLS MOVES HERE. A message received from Goldfleld this afternoon says that at the annual meeting meet-ing of the shareholders of the Nevada Hills Gold Mining company at 2 o'clock the board of directors and the officers were re-elected.

The next and only Important measure that came up and was unanimously agreed upon, was the matter of removing remov-ing the general offices of the company from Goldfleld to Salt Lake City. With the carrjlng of this proposition, the records rec-ords and all of the belongings of the Nevada Ne-vada Hills Mining company will be immediately im-mediately transferred to this city, and henceforth the property will be operated from this point. The Nevada Hills organization Is Just a year old today. In this period It has been developed until It is now one of the richest producing properties in Nevada. Ne-vada. Several hundred thousand dollars have been paid In dividends, and a surplus sur-plus accumulated to provide for any emergency tht may arise. John T. Hod-son Hod-son Is the .discoverer and the largest Individual In-dividual shareholder, while a great deal of the credit for the development of the mine belongs to W. H. Webber, who Is the general manager of the company.
