One of the heaviest mining deals
that has been negotiated in the terri
tory during recent years was closed UP
yesterday and the first tnstallmeht
paid on the purchase price OF the
properties involved, which make up the
Massachusetts group in Park CITY
This group has been secured by the
Alliance Mining company, by far the
Quickest mining corporation IN the
Territory. if not in the world. For
wears its stockholders have been going
down into their pockets and taxing
out good hard cash for expenditures
ON the development of the Park CITY
properties, which are still unproduc-
tive. but which give the greatest
promise of splendid returns on the IN
yestment. In fact, it ig SAID on the
side that the company has secured lts
long-sought ore bodies and the pur-
chase of the Massachusetts, when ao-

action on the part of the board of oil
rectors of the company also shows
what faith the members thereof nave
in the recommendations of Manager
Treweek. Both Mr.. Hanauer and Cap
tain Rustin have recently Inspected
the property and without question
their view of the situation exactly CO.
incided with that taken by the man
ager. for the securing of the new ter
ritory has followed very rapidly
The exact amount of the purchase
price is not known, but it is understood
to have been a very healthy figure.
The Massachusetts group is made up
of fourteen or fifteen claims upon
which the company has expended in
the neighborhood of 100000 in develop
ment work without uncovering any ore
bodies. The properties are equipped
with a splendid plant and the main
shaft is down about 700 feet, but it is
evidently still some distance above the
ore, which the Alliance must have un-
covered or else that company would
not be reaching out for new territory.
All of the equipment goes with the
group. but the title to none Of the
property will pass until the final pay
ment Is made on the purchase price,
the first having been made Yesterday.
The Massachusetts company is made
up largely of New England capitalists,
with NJ r. Evans, of this city, as
president.
This acquisition gives the Alliance
company about two miles right on the
strike Of its vein and the territory is
considered very valuable. The men,
bers of the company have shown their
faith by the cheerful payment of as
sessments. which number nineteen
since the organization of the new COM
pany. The sum of $4,000 was raised
by each Of these assessments and this
money has followed in the neighbour
hood of $780, 900 more in the develop
ment of the properties. Every person
interested in the development of the
resources of the territory and every
believer in reward for courage and great
good done will receive with a great
deal of pleasure the announcement
that the Alliance has a magnificent
ore body blocked out and is going to
receive back many times the amount
Of money expended. This announce
ment may be made any day now.

Colorado Placers Receiving Great
Deal of Attention.
Colonel Ben Hite has again come in

is now operating quite extensively in
the neighborhood of Hite, both up and
down the river, and the returns are
evidently satisfactory. The colonel
deal of activity along the bars OF the
river, and all of the operators seem
to be getting out more than expenses.
Some of them are slowly getting rich:
The Colorado is attracting a great deal
of attention and several syndicates are
negotiating for bars along the river.
The water is now down to its lowest
mark and operations are unlnter-
rupted.
At the Good Hope placers, in which
a number of Salt Lake people are
heavily interested, one of the water
wheels is now in place and as soon as
the fluming is completed the throwing
of water out on the bars cam commence
should the management so desire.
Other wheels are to be placed In the
river, also, for the purpose Of raising
water out of the river and up onto the
bars.
Just at present there is considerable
activity in the Henry mountains and
1t is very evident that there is going
to be a partial renewal of the active
campaign of several years ago. A
Denver syndicate has recently taken
hold of the Bromide group and is
working it with ten-stamp mill.

decrease in the loan item for the cur
rent week of $2,2S5, 700, due probably to
mercantile settlements and the calling

Against Rea and Schenck.

Following closely upon the suit filed
by the Dalton and Lark Mining COM
pany against the Lead Mine company,
Abraham Hanauer. John Treweek and
Charles Legg, which involves the own
ham, in which such a splendid Show
ing of ore is now being made, the
Lead Mine company yesterday coun-
tered with a suit against Rea and
Schneck, principal owners in the
Dalton and Lark. The plaintiff In the
last action wants damages in the sum
Of $40, $3.50, alleged to have been
suffered by reason Of the extraction
of ore by the defendants from the
Lead Mine, Carbonate and Nash
claims in the West Mountain district.
The Lead Mine company claims to be
the owner of these properties. and in
It's complaint sets out that Rea and
Schneck have crossed the dividing
lines between the properties named
and those of the Dalton and Lark and
taken away the amount of ore set out
from the Lead Mine and Carbonate.
Ihey also threaten to enter upon the
Nash, and to prevent this an iniunc-
ton is prayed. as one is also to pre-
vent the defendants from taking out
claims.

experts, will go out to the properties

The total value of the reported bank
ore and bullion receipts during the
past week shows falling off from
that of the previous same period, be-

$247, 900 This sum includes the value
of the shipments of Ontario silver bull

to increase its rolling stock, for the
simple reason that it's trains are at
