Mercur Miners Incensed at the Man
"ser of the Water Company.
MERCUR, Feb. 1.-There is trouble
in Mercur. The Golden Gate Water
company is warmly welcomed by
the people. and the other is
becoming a much execrated cor
poration. Owing to it's methods the
Geyser mill is silent, losing many gol-
den dollars and in a way retarding
the progress of the district. It is stat
ed on good authority that the Geyser
company paid It's water rate promptly
at the published schedule, but the
manager Of the water company has
had some other difficulty with the
Geyser people which is supposed to
account for his shutting off their water
supply.
The Sacramento company had every
assurance when they started their
mill that they should have water, but
the manager of the water company
after the mill is almost completed
gives orders that the pipe shall not be
laid
The Hecla people want water for
hosting purposes, but the manager of
the water company doesn't like some
of the individual members of the Hecla
company and the latter do not care to
lay a line to the main, only to be shut
off, as would be almost sure to happen.
The people in the upper part of tn.
camp are claimorous for water; they
are ready to pay for it; they are
anxious to pay for it, but they can't
get it. Why? Ask the manager Of the

ginning TO practice their dividend
smiles.
Just at present there is considerable
activity around Silver City in mining
circles. Tommy Croxau and Roue
Wheeler began work yesterday on the
South Swansea, which is as good as a
bank for the boys, when they begin to
get low on ready cash, draw check
on this mine, and the check is always
honored. To facilitate work in sinking
on the South Swansea a Buffalo hoist
was purchased yesterday from the
Utah and Montana Machinery company
and sent down to the mine.
1t is the understanding that Yunt
and OgIesby will begin work in a few
days on the Diamond mine in Nam
moth hollow, on which they have
two years bond and lease. The shaft
on this property is down 400 feet, from
the bottom of which a drift has been
run towards the Centennial Eureka
mine. a distance of 600 feet, and it is
the intention to continue work in this
direction. The Diamond is owned by
L. E. Ritter, c. E. Elmer and Roue
Wheeler.
Work is also being pushed on the
North star mine, near silver City, ana
the property is showing up in great
shape This mine is owned by H. w.
Lawrence of this city, and Milan Pack
ard Of Springville. The tunnel in the

leasing. is doing well at chloriding.
Messrs. Lawrence and Packard are en-
ploying ten or twelve msn and are

Silver City is an old camp-older
than Eureka, but in time to come, she
will surprise people with the wealth of
her mineral resources, for they are not
all exhausted by any means.

Yesterday was another Centennial
Eureka day in the pit of the stock ex-
change. and fifty shares changed hands
at $50 a share, ex-dividend. This stock
is pre-eminently AN investment stock,
for it is taken as gilt-edged security in
any bank in the city; because which,
it is really one of the best speculative
stocks offered on this market, for it
is as well worth a hundred dollars
share today as it is sixty; and it will
not be long until it will be held at this
figure; therefore, we claim that it is
a splendid investment, and a good spec
ulation. especially as it pays 81 a share
psr month in dividends.
Most Of the investment stocks were
shaded a little below yesterdays quo
tations, and, outside of Centennial
Eureka, no sale Of listed stocks were
made.
Daily, on account Of the outlook for
a dividend this month, has been strong
and firm during the week, but yester-
day it fell off a tri1ie in the bidding
but the seller stood pat by his first
offer
Even AIercur was shaved a little and
offered at the going price of a day or
two ago, but buyer and seller could
not get together, and no sales We're
recorded.
Ontario, however, showed growing
strength and advanced to $40 in the
bidding. This is a fine showing for a
stock that has been enjoying a Rip
Van Wrinkle slumber for three years;
but now that this grand old producer
has come to life there is no reason why
the stock should not touch the $40
mark once again.
Sunshine was weak in the bidding,
and a bear movement was made on
the stock, but bruin was routed before
any sales were consummated.
Of the unlisted stocks Dalton seemed
to be a favorite. and sold al an advance
over yesterdays highest bid.
Little Pittsburg was quite active, but
sales were made at a nominal figure.
Gas was inactive, although buyer
and seller were only q cent apart.

The Free Gold Ore Hody Located in
This bonanza.

This bonanza.
Superintendent John Treweek of the
Mercur mine was in the city yester-
day. and when interviewed by a Her
aid representative. seemed greatly
elated over the future outlook for this
magnificent property.
In speaking of the discovery of free
gold ore in the Mercur mine week be-
fore last. exclusive mention of which
was made in these columns, Mr..
Treweek said that the ore body had
been definitely located
1T did not take long" said he ''to
find 1t. for I knew the character of the
rock too well to be misled. and 1 did
not need the assistance of any mind
reader or peepStone fanatic to lead
me to a stone between the Mercur
and Resolute tunnels. This was where
1 found it. and the ore body, which is
fourteen feet wide, is streaked and
spotted with this free gold ore, some
Of the chunks being as large as your
head"
Mr.. Treweek is a firm believer in the
future Of the Mercur mine. At present
work is progressing on three wines
in the Ruby tunnel on the Mercur
the second ninetY-seven and the third
forty. all three Of which are in ore.
Wine No. 2 has the hanging wall, but
in no instance has the footwall been
cut, and the ore ranges in value from
$25 to s35 to the ton. There is also a
large body of ore in the face of the
mill tunnel, which has depth on the
pitch of the vein of $50 feet below the
level of the Ruby tunnel.
Superintendent Treweek has been
mining for thirty-nine years and he
has followed his JorOfeSSiO0 In Mem,
Zealand. Australia Montana, Idaho
and Utah. but he SAYS that he never
saw more promising gold camp than
Nrercur; and to back up his opinion in
this respect he has secured an interest
in five claims west of the Matte, from
which values of S120 to 81 have been
obtained at a depth Of only six feet.
besides which he has secured options
on several other fine properties.

WAR ON THE EAGLE.
A Question of Title That Will Be
stubbornIy Contested.

4 Question of Title That Will Be
stubbornIy Contested.
A few months ago Sam Raney and
Morris Beck secured a bond and lease
on the Eagle group of claims in Camp
Floyd district, between Mercur and
Sunshine, the property of Raddatz and
Derge, the consideration of the bond
being $4,000 MessTs Raney and Beck
have been pushing work on the Eagle
all winter, and about six weeks ago
struck ore at $50 feet. The ore body,
which has been sunk on for q feet,
shows an average value Of 81 in gold to
the ton and the mine promises to be
come a great producer.
Shortly after the discovery of ore in
this property several eastern men be-
gan negotiations for it's purchase. and
after visiting the mine several times
and making tests of the value of the
ore body, sale was about complet-
ed, the price asked being $4,000 for
the option, the purchasers to take up
the $4,000 bond, when, just at the crit
ical moment, ]. L. Lawson appeared on
the scene Of action and made a survey
of the Queen of the West claim, which
is included in the Eagle group, and on
which the shaft was sunk and other
improvements made, claiming that the
ground belonged to him by right of a
prior location.
This. of course. brought the deal to
a standstill, and until the matter is
settled in the courts, no money will
change hands.
The owners of and the holders of
the bond on the Eagle group claim
that so far as they know Mr.. Lawson
never had any interest in the ground in
question, and that if he did, he has
never filed his non-assessment papers
nor performed his assessment work for
last year on the property
The matter will probably be stub
bornly fought by both claimants.
