the initial step in the purchase of the property including mills and mines of the Bluestone Mining and Smelting company in the Ma son valley district and this move is declared to be a start toward the acquisition of facilities in the commencement of an ag gressive campaign to make the Mason valley smelter an impor tant factor in western ore reduc tion affairs' providing a favorable decision is reached in the so called rate now pending before the interstate commerce A McNab general manager of the Mason Valley Mines company ar rived in Reno a week ago leaving Thursday night To a representative of The Journal he stated that the''di rectors of both companies had agreed upon terms the transfer and thatletters had been transmitted to the stockholders of both seeking their ratification a matter which he state ed was merely pro forma insofar as the results were concerned there being no doubt as to their approval Under the terms of the sale the Bluestone shareholders take over a block of the stock of Mason Valley firm paying for it with their properties and in cash The Mason Valley disposes of its Gray Eagle mine in Siskiyou county California the purchasers being stockholders of the company The Mason Valley as a result of these transfers will have a treasury containing liquid assets in excess of a million and a quarter dollars The Mason Valley Mines company in 1908 came under the control of the Thompson interests The smelter was built in 1912 the equipment con sisting of two balst furnaces with a combined capacity of 2400 tons per day At first matte was produced but in 1914 a converter plant was added which permitted the production of blister copper and the plant worked until 1919 when it was shut down with a great majority the copper mines of the United States because of the lack of for copper created by the liquidation of enormous stocks ac cumulated during the war In its period of operation the record shows 299 mines large and small in Nevada shipped ores to it and the items of labor supplies freight and power growing out of the service it rendered to the min eral zone in which it lay ran into the figure of about $7000000 a year Since its shut down scores of small low grade and mines through western have been deprived of facilities since their ores stand shipment'' costs to Utah and California smelters and have therefore lain idle Many bf these will resume with the provision of smelting facilities near at hand The Bluestone company nally one of the holdings Captain De Lamar ciates Prior to 1915 it ores to the Mason valley smelter but later whbn a 500 ton concentrating mill was erected on its property shipped the concentrates to Utah The Mason Valley plant has not been pre pared to handle concentrates but it is now stated that additions to permit it to do so will be installen when opera tions are resumed the matter hinging on outcome of the railroad rate case which should determine what may bei in tonnage of Plumas county concentrates In 1919 Sir Mortimer Davis one of the big figures in the Bank of Mon treal acquired the Bluestone from the estate of De Lamar Sir Mortimer and his associates are heavily interested in the Dome mine at Nipiiiing in the Co balt district in Canada The same causes which contributed to the shut down of the smelter a demoralized copper market closed the Bluestone but large ore reserves are reported and rfhe property was left and main tained ii) excellent shape McNab Returns East After soyeral days spent inReno in conference with Brown Belford the attorneys of the Mason
