In accordance with the order of Judge
Smith of the First district court at
Provo, a corps of engineers is now hard
at work preparing maps of the under
ground workings of the Bullion-Beck
and Champion Mining company's pro-
perty, or at least of those sections of
the workings which may be brought
into contest in the hearing of the suit
commenced on Tuesday afternoon by
the Almo Mining and Milling company
against the Bullion-Beck and H. NJ.
Ryan for 100000 damages and the
ejectment of the last named defendant,
who is holding the shaft of the Almo
people under a lease and bond executed
by the former owner of the property to
Rockwell.
Just before midnight on Tuesday the
surveyors made their appearance at the
mouth of the Beck shaft and, being
armed with the order of the court, de-
manded admission. A Geographic query
sent to the members of the board of
directors in this city, regarding the
matter, ELECTED the order that the gen.
tlemen should be allowed to enter the
mine and prepare the drawings They
were soon hard at work making the
necessary measurements and running
the lines for the surveys of the 700 foot
level.
Instead of being a source of vexation
to the members of the board of direc-
tors of the Bullion-Beek company, the
latter say they are not at all troubled
as to the outcome of the suit and are
prepared to prove beyond the question
of a doubt that the line between the
Beck and the Almo mines has never
been cut. the 700 foot drift being still
over eight feet from the line. 1t is
now said that the reason for the al
legation as to the extraction of ore from
the Almo group by the Bullion-Beck
people was incorporated solely Tor the
purpose of obtaining an underground
survey of the Bullion-Beck and not
with the idea that any such charge
would be sustained when the case is
heard in the courts. A gentleman just
in from Eureka, one who had great
deal of experience as miner, said yes
terday that the allegation as to the ore
extraction was without foundation, for
he had very recently made an inspec-
ton of the property and traced the 700
foot level to it's end, which is still over
eight feet from the end line of the Almo.
When the members of the directory
some time ago saw where the drift was
going they ordered all work at the face
of the cut discontinued and not man
has been at work there since. The
same gentleman stated that in his opin-
ion the ore body which now lies so
closely to the line, will give out entirely
within the next few feet. for the lime
formation is gradually closing in on the
vein, and as it takes the shape of an
elbow, the superstition is that the line
between the two properties would cut a
great lime forma ton.
The building COMMITTEES OF the board
of directors of the Bullion-Beek has
called for bids for the machinery which
is to enter into the construction of the
new concentrator and the contracts are
to be let within the NEXT twelve days.
