MIDNIGHT REPORT.
Was hington, March 90.

Washington, March 23.
1t having been reported that the title
to the new quicksi lver mining company
of California, was finally settled BY the
recent decision of the Supreme Court of
the U. s. in the Armada case-it is
proper to say the Government holds and
claims the title to he property referred to
IN the decision, 10 which reference 10
made
The new quicksilver mining company,
it is believed, holds title under Mexican
grant to LAYERS, v hich was confirmed by
the supreme Cour several years ago, but
that confirmation, when the surveys were
made under 1t, lie II out the richest por-
ton Of the mines, which were worked by
the Almsda Co., and now decided to be
the property Of the U. s.
The question rs to the lines and bound
aries is still in litigation, and pending be-
fore the Supreme Court, in which the U.
.. and the quicksilver mining company
are parties.
The quicksilver mining Co. was organ.
lzed under the laws of Penna, and issued
million dollars Of stock. The annual
net earnings OF the company are estimat-
cd at about S75O,OOO.
