The wenger No. 2.

Since the big discovery on the Wenger
No. 2 al PhilipsburR, a v the Mail, in
quiries have been made as TO who was the
original locator of the claim, etc., and il
is learned that Steve Severson staked the
claim and after he had finished his work
the original locator told him he would
either give him a half interest in il or four
dollars for the work he had done. The
old prospect shaft that was sunk on the
claim several years q Is 5 feet i'm depth,
and passes on down within two feet from
the ore body that the above gentlemen
are now extracting their riches from. The
parties who sunk the shaft were at that
time not very familiar with the art of
mining, as every indication of their labor
shows. After sinking the shaft 30 feet,
they drifted oil down the hill some fifty
feet, directly opposite to the way they
should have gone; for if they had taken
a few buckets of dirt from the opposite
direction they would have found the mine.

BUTTE. April l9.-Inquiry was made to-
day of several parties supposed TO be fa-
miliar with the inside workings OF the
Major Budd company. with n view OF
learning the cause of the sudden rise of
that stock on the st. Louis board. The
persons approached were provokingly
non-commital and refused To talk, saying
they knew no more about the matter than
those ON the outside. When asked as TO
the ACCESSIBILITY of buying or selling Mt
present prices, they were equally UNI
communicative, and said they did not
care Ia give advice. A very large suspicion
exists in the minds of a number OF people
that the sudden boom is only part OF a
well laid plan of certain large holders OF
the stock To unload. The bids u Is
claimed were made by agents of these
holders.
