THE GOLDFILDS.

WAIHI RETURN. a; 71,827 FOR TflE MOVTH: The return from the VVaihi G.M. Co. for the past month's operations was £71,827. This is not quite equal to the amount for the previous month, which was, however, a record for that mine. This brings the total output to date to £0,997,068, but this will no doubt be increased when the actual difference between the estimated value of the bullion sent to London and what it sold for is announced, as there is always a margin on the safe side. Previous returns are as nppended: — Total to 1007 £6,290,113 : January, 1908, 25, 133 tons .. 61.G54 'l-'ebluary, 29.837 tons ' 70,714 March, :n.:mi tons 74,272 April. 30,173 tons 71,677 May 10, 1908, 30,847 tons 70,890 June 13, 1908, 31,3ti6 tons 71,271 July 11, 1008, 29,430 tons 70,20» I August 10, IGOB, 31.455 tons .... 71,547 I September, 31,904 tons 72,804 October, 31,515 tons 71,827 Total to date £6,997,068 Total dividends to date.. £3,218,402 14 sj Taihoa. — Very fair progress continues! to be made with the main crosscut, which Iβ now in 393 ft.
