BIRKS NEW PRESIDENT OF THE HOWEY GOLD MINES HMHuronian Mining and Finance to Preâ€" pare Report and Recommendations and to Coâ€"operate for the Fuâ€" ture Development of the Property. Last week The Advance made menâ€" tion of the fact that J. E. Hammell, president, and two of the directors of the mine, had resigned and that a statement would no doubt be issued in regard to the matter. Press reports from Toronto last week went into the matter in much greater detail. A new board of directors, composed of R. T. Birks, president; W. S. Cherry, viceâ€"president; R. Home Smith, J. A. Northway and Andre Dorfman, direcâ€" tors, has been elected for Howey €rold Mines, Ltd., following the resignation of J. E. Hammell, president, and Harry Oakes and Albert Wende, directors. An official statement issued last weeki points out that the election of the new | board "means that the Cherry interestsi have secured the coâ€"operation of the Huronian Mining and Pinance Co..‘ Ltd., to assist in working out definite | programme for the future development j of the property. The new board will | supervise all operations for two or three| months, at the end of which time they | will be in a position to lay a definite plan before the shareholders. In the meantime the Cherry interests have, kindly consented to postpone all payâ€"| ments due under their loan until the, shareholders‘ meeting, about Oct. 1." _ Horace Young will continue as mine manager. The connection of Huronian Mining and Finance Co. will be purely on an engineering basis in a consulting capacity. An independent report will be prepared by them during the rext month, along with recommendations for the future. In an interview in Toronto last week J. E. Hammell is quoted as saying:â€" In an interview in Toronto last week J. E. Hammell is quoted as saying:â€" "FTor some time past there has been friction among the members of the Howey board, so in view of the situaâ€" tion T decided that the best thing for me to dao was to resign and let Messrs Cherry and Birks carry on. They have been most active in Howey affairs durâ€" ing the past year, and by stepping out I believe I am giving them a better chance ‘to try to put the company in its feet. "In theâ€" past I have sometimes felt that there were many matters that could have been handled in a better way than they were, but, unfortunately, I was not always able to have my way. There is no doubt Mr. Cherry and his associates are sincere in their efforts to find a solution to the problems conâ€" fronting the company and will use their best judgment to work out something that will be to the best inâ€" terest of shareholders. Mr. Cherry i: a very large creditor of Howey, having icaned the company about a half a milâ€" lion dollars and it is in his interest tc see the mine put on a profitable basis as soon as possible. "I am glad to know the decision has been made to bring in outside enginâ€" eers to make a thorough examination of the mine and bring in recomimenâ€" dations that may help. This will clear the air and may result in effecting some changes that will make the mine a profit earner. "Naturally, I am greatly disappointâ€" ed with results from milling to date. The mine engineer at first reported to me that an average of $7 could be exâ€" pected, but later revised this figure to $6.50. However, it is well known that values so far rscovered have not apâ€" proached $6.50 average. This may be due to the enlarging of stoping areas to almost double the width of calculaâ€" tions before milling was started. The independent engineers should deciae this and suggest such remedies as may be necessary. ; "As I said before, I have great faith in Howeyâ€"always have had, and beâ€" lieve that shareholders will understand my personal position when I say my block of stock remains intact." Mr. Hammell in pointing out that Mr. Cherry had loaned the mine $500,â€" 000.00 to carry the property through to its present stage proceeds to say that his resignation will make no difference in the policy of running things, as his hands had been tied for some time,â€" since it was agreed to take the loan from Mr. Cherrty. "They may be pright and I may be wrong," Mr. Hammell is quoted as saying, "time will tell. Shareholders should be patient. The mine is as good as I ever thought it was." Further, Mr. Hammell is quoted as stating that he wanted a mill erected when 500â€"foot depth had been reached, having then finances to carry through such erection and start making profitâ€" able return. The other directors, aidâ€" ed with the mine manager, overruled him, and the finances which had been intended for erection of the mill were tzpatrick THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO spent on loging. to 1.000â€"fcoot depth in | the shaft and aevelopment work, and he continues: "That is why Howey isi today indebhted to the sum of nearly | $500,000 advanced to erect the mill." "That money was advanced to Howey Gcold Mines on condition that I malie no change in the maragement of the. mine, retaining Mr. Young as manager.. My hands were immediately tied, alâ€" though I cffered to personally advanct oneâ€"thtrd of the money required in order that such clause in the agreeâ€" ment be withdrawn, and that I conâ€" tinue to have the say over things and the way they should be run. However. the other directors didn‘t approve of it and the loan was secured from Mr. Cherry. The other directors and mine manager wanted to put fiotation mill in at first, but I wouldn‘t stand for it, being afraid that it wouldn‘t be satisâ€" factory on such a new mine. Then I wanted a standardized tube mill, but they said Hardinge mills (as now inâ€" stalled) would do the work. I made the final request that in the mill they leave sufficient space for later tube mill erection, which has been done. That should prove very satisfactory."

The most beautiful part of the trip, however, the drive alongside the Rhine from Bingen to Coblenz. We expected that its beauties had been exaggerated and so were not disappointed.

And these l are well brought out by the twenty or This morning a very interesting letâ€" ter was received from Rev. Fr. O‘Gorâ€" man in regard to his present tour of Eurcpe. The letter, which will be read with much interest by all, is as follows: Cologne, July 11th, 1930 Dear Advance:â€"We covered 2000 kilometres or 11250 miles. Toâ€"day we are resting and seeing Cologne. Our trip through Germany has been very interesting. The roads were good and the weather bright though cool. We visited Munich, Nuremburg, Rothenâ€" burg, Frankfort, Mayence and Bingin on the way. All of these cities have interesting churches and art galleries, some of which we inspected. But Nurâ€" emburg and Rothenburg were particuâ€" larly of interest because of their wellâ€" sociations are what invests the Rhince with its special attraction. And these are well brought out by the twenty or more ruined castles on the hills, one side of the river or the other, each of which has some stoory attached to it as the guide books â€"inform us. The river was full of shipping. As we have come along from Rome, the harvest has been in full swing. We were not surprised to see little maâ€" chinery used in Italy, but were to find :o much hand work done in Germany. It would appear that the farms are small. At any rate labour for the fields, male or female, appears to be plentiful and, I suppose, cheap. Not a fence anywhere. All the farimmers here, as in Italy, live in villages. The vinesyards along the Main and Rhine rivers are aSs numerous as on the other side of the Alps. w ten days ago..

Even after nineteen years many here will be interested in the following paraâ€" graph in The sSudbury Star of July J9nd, I1911, as reâ€"produced in last week‘s Star from its fyles:â€" "In parliament, on Wednesday. Geo. Gordon, of Nipissing, again brought up the matter of government relief to the Porcupine fire sufferers. He had just returned from the burned district, he said, and the immediate need of cash is very great. Up until Monday night no money whatever had been reâ€" ceived, and the financial position of many of the northern towns would be very bad unless something were done to assist them. A precedent had been established by the aid given to Campâ€" belford and he asked for a liberal conâ€" tribution." ASKED AID FOR SUFFERERS IX THE PORCUPINE FIRE YORKSTON SETTLER MEETS DEATH IN THE BLACK RIVER The Northern News, of Kirk!land Lake, last week saysâ€"*"When the canâ€" o2 in which they were riding upset in the Black River last Friday mornâ€" ing, Abraham Lasoway Was gqrowned while his companion, Jo: Pashkosky, was able to swim to shore. The two men, Polish farmers in the township of Benoit, were on their way to Yorkston, a small community about ‘ twentyâ€"five miles north of Kirkland Lake. Provincial Constables Durnfora and Byrne were notified and on the followinz morning, they recovered Lasâ€" cway‘s body. An inquest was deemed unnecessary by Coroner Edis. The Black River forms the chief artery of transportation to this farming settieâ€" ment, which has held severai indGignaâ€" ;t.ion meetings on the question of their roadsâ€"or lack of them. Th two men ’were using part of the river, which at !t.his point is about fifty feet wide, Laloway is said to have rocked the cance., adding there was nothing to fear as both could swim. The cance upset and Lasoway disappeared. Pashâ€" ‘kosky after reaching shore and failing ‘to see his companion, tock off th: g_heavier articles of his clothing and idived for th»> unfortunatse man. Failâ€" ing to locate thne body, the provincial | police at Kirkland Lake were notified ‘in the afterrcon, but owing to the | lateness of the day, did not leave until l early Saturday morning. Draggirt; ~rith grappling hooks at the scene O% the fatality, the body was found in aâ€" bout fifteen feet of water.
