THE SUMPTER MINER
11
LOST HORSE WILL SHIP.
Now in Ore That Assays as
High as $79 a Ton.
E. A. Clem, of Portland, adds as a
postscript to a business letter to THE
MINER:
One of the directors of the Lost Horse
Mining company here is in receipt of
some very tine quartz which was sent
down by Mr. Hudson a few days ago.
This proves the best sample of ore yet
sent In from the property, carrying values
of 43 to $79 per ton, the character of the
ore showing It to be a very fine concen
trating proposition.
The management of the Lost Horse
company is maturing plans to begin the
shipment of such ore as will bear freight
and treatment charges, and hopes to be
able to meet the working and other ex
penses of further development from the
output of the mine.
The Lost Horse company owns several
other claims in the Cracker creek district,
which were to receive attention during the
summer months, but It was thought best
to confine operations largely on the Lost
Horse claim until such time as It is well
developed. This claim Is well equipped
for economical working, has nearly 200
feet of main working tunnel, with several
drifts, exposing large quantities of ore,
but for the most part of low grade. It
has 400 feet of steel rail track with auto
matic dumping steel ore cars and comfort
able quarters for a crew of 12 men.
Trial Advocate on Smelter Combine.
A Washington, D. C, press dispatch
dated March it, says: Elverton R.
Chapman, a New Yolk banker and
broker, who has been largely engaged In
recent years in financing Indus'rlal com
binations, was this afternoon a witness
before the Industrial commission. Among
the companies he has financed Is the
American Smelting & Refining company.
Mr. Chapman said this company had Is
sued 927,400,000 of preferred stock, and
the same amount of common stock, the
vendor companies receiving cash or pre
ferred stock at par and 70 per cent of the
company stock, the remaining 30 per cent
going to pay the expenses of the negotia
tions Incidental to the organization. The
preferred stock represented the actual
value of the properties secured, and the
company stock the good will. The work
ing capital of the consolidation which had
been subscribed and paid in was $6,5.00,
000. The consolidation had been effected
to reduce expenses and eliminate competi
tion. It was calculated, he said, that
over $$,000,000 would be saved annually
on freight charges alone. He had heard
no camplaint on the part of the miners
concerning the combination, and was in
clined to believe the smelter combination
was In the interest of the miners. He
said the combination Includes all the
smelters of the country except the Gug
genheim concerns, and he admitted that
if these latter concerns had been taken in,
as was proposed, a monopoly would have
been secured. Seven per cent dividend
had been paid upon the preferred stock.
The net earnings last year were about
94,000,000.

Dr. J. W. Vogel announces that he
will be in Sumpter Monday, April 22, to
