Well known mining broker in trouble in Butte Montana
The well known mining broker W H Nichols of 1 West Broadway Butte Montana faces trouble over a dash with the Butte Bingham Copper Mining company of Bingham Utah. He sold about 600000 shares at 1 cent each to investors including two ladies who invested 200 dollars and later sold their stock to Nichols for 2509 dollars netting 2200 dollars. Nichols warns the next block will not be sold for less than 30 to 50 cents and possibly a dollar by year end. The last mine assay showed gold 1.2 dollars per ton silver 1 ounce copper % and lead 4% to 14% copper and lead values. Nichols advises waiting 30 or 60 days for stock to reach 50 cents per share before buying.
