Butte and London Prospect Seen As Bright Mining Venture
A Boston observer praises Butte & London as well financed and well managed with 113 acres east of nearby mines. The shaft at the center is sunk about 1050 feet, with plans to 1500 feet and crosscuts to test promising veins. Stock at $2.50, 2300 stockholders, 186000 shares unissued, $209000 banked, and Meritt & Co. losses sparked a price drop, yet the future looks strong if a rich vein is found.
