PAYS DIVIDEND
Shipments Made to Smelter Av
eraged 65 Per Cent Copper
First Dividend
Although the Bonanza copper
mine only began shipping ore last
April its output was more than
16,000 tons. The ore averaged
(55 per cent copper ami was val
ued at. $3,500,000, enabling the
company to declare, a dividend of
$1,000,000 for the nine months
operation.
J. P. Morgan and associates are
credited with holding slightly
more than a majority of the stock.
Kuhn, I,iM>l) it Co. ami the <iug
genheim interests hold a majority
of the remaining shares. The
New York Mining Age of Febru
ary 2i, in commenting upon the
initial disbursement to stockhold
ers, says:
"The declaration of a dividend
by the Bonanza mine has been
made possible by the recently
completed Copper River railroad.
The Bonanza began shipments in
Apiil of last year, and continues
to he the heaviest shipper in the
district. During the last few
months it has shipped more than
•10.000 tons of ore averaging 05
|»er cent copper. Reducing this
to pounds gives 35,8 40,000 lbs.
of ore with actual copper con
tents of more than 25,000,000
pounds, valued at over #3,500,000
on a basis of present copper
prices. But it is not to be ex
pected that such high grade ore
will be maintained. The install
ing of concentrating machinery
has been about completed, and
the mine, will soon begin the ship
ment of low grade ores."

COL. RICHARDSON WILL
RETURN TO ALASKA SOON
(Continued from page 1)
to spccial duties were ordered to
join their regiments in order to
give the new officials further time
to familiarize themselves wifli the
situation. The fact that the or
der affecting Colonel Richardson
does not go into efTect before No
vember I. tPI -, would lend to this
belief. At all events Colonel
R:cbardson will return to Alaska
and be at I he head of the road
commission for the coming sea
son.
From other sources it is learn
ed that Colonel Richardson is
working hard for the dyke appro
priation. II was through his ad
vice and assistance that the de
part inont was interested in the
matter of providing for the safety
of the town from the glacier
stream and resulted in Major Cav
anaugh being sent hero to make
an inspection. Advices from
Washington state the prospect of
securing the $55,000 appropria
tion is bright.
Major Richardson has been
sparing no effort to prevail upon
congress to make an appropria
tion suitable for the work under
contemplation by the road com
| mission and he has hopes the ap
propriation this year will equal
and possibly exceed those of past
years. This will enable, the com
mission to carry to completion a
large amount of road and trail
building to new camps which has
been impossible owing to the. in
sufficient amount of money at
their command.
