Impor,nnt Mining sale.

Telegrnphic ndvices 1efe received
here yesterday from official sources In
Snn Francisco. says the Eureka Sentinel.
announcing the absolute sale and trans.
fer OF the X X mine to the Eureka Con-
solidnted Mining Company. The
announcement caused quite breeze in
mining aud business circles, and when
the .Sentinefs e,tra wss issued cont aiming
the facts the news Was engerly discussed
by kuo,s Of men in all parts OF town.
The consideration mentioned is $780,.
600 cash for the eutire property Of the
X X Company. including the hoisting
works and all and everything pertain
ing to the mine. There are ST. 900 shares
represented in the X X Company. Tie
purchase price of S!jO.0OO for the
whole property is therefore equal to 81
per share for the stock. This sum per
share. we understand. will be paid to
outside share holders. Several parties
in Eureka haze been holders Of the
stock for yenrs. The rpte 1t which the
mine has been sold will hardly pnt them
even.
The territory purchased ia not very
eXtt nsive Oh the surface, though the
lines of the X X run in a way that will
nearly double the Eurcka's ground on
the dip OF the lode ut "a depth of 1900
feet. The purch tse will also shut off
oil law suits in the future. The Eureka
now has compromise lines at both ends.
The dividing line between the X X and
Phenix was established by COIL pro.
mise, ana the Eureka of course now
reaches over TO this point. On the
other end the line between the Eureka
and Richmond has been. held as valid
by the courts so far as tested. The
purchase likewise gives the Eureka the
much needed ground for the big Shaft
This great work, il il now understood,
will be inungurated without further
| delay.
