KINNEY's BONANZA SUIT. - An
amended answer was filed a few days
ago in the United States Circuit Court,
in San Francisco, in the case OF Geo.
w. Kinney VS.. the Consolidated Vir-
ginia and California Mining compa-
MES and Sol. Hydenfeldt. The suit
will probably be tried next month.
The principal wne and of
the companies seem very confident OF
defeating Kinney's claim to any part
or parcel of the ground. On the other
hand, Kinney and his counsel appear
equally sanguine of success. The re-
port, however, that Kinney had been
offered ninety thousand dollars for a
compromise lacks continuation.
