capital stock from 100000 to ST.

profitable.
The company already has control
OF the "Hardscrabbfe" mine, for the
purchase and development of which
the company was originally formed,
and since its reorganization it has
acquired other valuable claims in the
famous Cripple Creek district, and a

strike of $4,000 to the ton ore on
Nipple mountain is thought to be on

business with renewed determination
and enthusiasm.

HINCKLEY FOREST FIRE.
Charges That 1t Was Set by a
Mill EmDloYe.

ShaTkcS xnaC IL w US 6oC ny u
Mill Employe.
A somewhat startling statement was
embodied in paper filed IN the district
court yesterday afternoon. The paper
is in answer to a suit brought by Laird
& Boyle against Wisdom & Cannon.
The former owned saw mill at Mission
Creek and the defendant owned one at
Pine City. In the answer the statement
is made that the Hlnckley forest fire
was set by an employee of Laird Il Boyle.
The following is au outline Of what the
answer sets forth:
The fire which destroyed the plant
iff'S mill was burned Sept. l, 1894, 10y a
fire which was set and kindled by the
plaintiff, their servants and employees.
1t occurred wholly and solely by reason
OF the carelesSness and negligence of
the plaintiffs and their employees, and
the fire so set and kindled was the same
fire which thereafter and on the same
day destroyed the village OF HinckleY
and large amount of timber, as the
defendant verify believes"
There Is no charge that the fire was
wllfully or maliciously set, but it is
meant to indicate that it was the result
of carelessness and poor Judgment OH
the part of all employee of Laird Il
Boyle.
The suit proper involved negotiations
which were pending at the time of the
fire for the exchange of properties. the
defendants to put in a note for $500
and make other concessions. The
answer says that negotiations were not
completed when the fire destroyed the
PLAINTIFFS mill, but il the court finds
they were completed, then it is held the
plaintiff ought not to recover. the
amount sued for. for the reasons stated
above in the charges.

Reinold and the notorious Won Arnold

sensational charge against both men.
Won Arnold failed to appear yester-
day afternoon in the police court when
the cases of Charles Loomis and Norm
