Palmer Mountain Tunnel venture labeled valueless by experts
Springfield Massachusetts August 2 A circular titled Revised Mountain Facts reports from mining experts that the Palmer mountain property is practically valueless and urges stopping work or dissolving the project. It says only one barren vein exists and continuing work would likely incur a net loss, with some hope of recovering minimal funds by asset disposal. Over 200 local stockholders, including four directors, face the prospect of dissolution or continued effort under manager F G Burnham who cautions against immediate dissolution. The treasurer shows 36666 16 cash on July 9 and stockholders are asked to vote on dissolution versus continuance and on pursuing those responsible for misrepresentations.
