Old Amber mine owners questioned by broker on stock legality
Robert S. Bickford, a Boston mining broker, says the Old Amber Mining Company lacks legal rights to issue stock as no articles of incorporation or annual statements have been filed. Deeds remain in A. Kerr's name, and Kerr's heirs administer the estate. He notes the mine near Helena, with a two inch vein, a ten stamp mill, ample water power, and timber, but under current management it cannot yield a profit. Debts are nearly paid except $2500, and the operation is not active.
