A prominent and reliable mining man who appears to be well iuformed on the subject says the company has suspended all operations.on its claime Dublin Bay and Erie, and that some of the miners have not received their pay. The company has on the Baltic twenty stamps, on the Gambrino five, on the Dublin Bay ten and on the Erie ten. $124,000 of the stockholders’ money is said to have been expended. On the Baltic location 1,400 feet of tannel has been rau, and 200 tons of ore extracted and milled yielded $4.50 a ton. There is on hand a large quantity of provisions and other supplies. The miner who talked with the reporter on the subject said: ‘I am not prepared to say the trouble is due to aviything worse than what I regard as bad financial management. ‘The ledge a' the Baltic is fremthree to seven feei thick, and of good appearance, who worked there tell me that coul the tunnel have been pushed ahead i would within another hundred fee have developed a known rich shoo — ¢ The Baltic Company Shute Down and practical advice, which could not which consist of the Baltic, Gambrino, . .
