great Bonanza Mine of the Copper
River Valley, and the Latouche mine
on Latouche Island, Alaska, will pay
a quarterly dividend of $1.25 the
share on October 1, to stockholders
of record on September 2. This dis
tribution will amount to $5,592,030

sued, and will represent an increase
of 25 cents the share over the divi
dends paid in 1926. Earnings for
the first six months of this year are
said to have been over $3.16 per
share, but part of this amount
comes from the Utah Copper Com

owns 96 per cent.
The Mother Lode Coalition, con

period of 1926. Production was
12,150,000 pounds of copper, a de

semi-annually, although there is no
official authority for this statement.
