George A. Robinson has brought
suit at Provo against Jesse Knight &
Sons for 500 for tresspass on the
ground of the Cyrus oliver Mining
claim, for which patent was. recent
ly issued to Jesse Knight. The Cyrus
Oliver formerly belonged to Knight
and Elizabeth Schmidt. The latter
sold to George H Robinson, who now
alleges that Knight has worked the
ground through the Humbug, which it
adjoins on the south and has taken
therefrom 1850 tons of ore of a value
of $40 per ton. Knight will oppose an
underground survey, alleging that the
suit is not brought in good faith. 1t
seems that a Mr.. Day in Salt Lake re-
Gently obtained a bond and lease on
the Mahogany and Narrow Guage,
which lie south of and adjoining the
Cyrus Oliver, and Mr. Robinson is
popularity believed to be the power
behind Mr.. Day. Jesse Knight seems
to believe that Robinson seeks TO de-
termine the value of this ground by
an underground survey of the Hum
bug.
The above, from the columns of the
Tintic Miner, conveys several impress
sions which are entirely erroneous.
In the first place, Mr.. George H.
Robinson has no connection whatever
with Mr. A S. Day, neither is he in
any way interested in or connected
with the La RENE Mining company,
whose group of claims, lying between
the Utah and Humbug mines, is only
separated from the latter by a narrow
strip of ground which is only about 100
feet in width and which is known as
the Cyrus Oliver.
Having no connection or interest
whatever with Mr.. Robinson in the
ownership of any part whatever in the
Cyrus Oliver, and as Mr.. Robinson
has no part or parcel in the Mahogany
and Narrow Guage claims, embraced
in the holdings of the La RENE COM
pany, of which Mr.. Day is an officer
and director, Mr.. Day feels that he has
been misrepresented in the Miner
article reproduced above, and he in
dignantly denies the insinuation made
to the effect that he desires to have
an underground survey made of the
Humbug workings in order to deter
mine the value of the La Refine group,
as the location OF this property is such,
being between these two big mines,
that no investigation of this character
is necessary, as the ledge connecting
the Humbug and Utah properties is
clearly traceable on the surface of the
La RENE group, and the company is
thoroughly satisfied that the ore bodies
believed to exist within its boundary
lines can be found without any appeal
to the courts, ard this by systematic
and energetic development, which is
now we'll under way.
Mr.. Day does not care to be mis-
judged by his neighbors nor to become
embroiled in a quarrel with them, and
especially as there is no ground what
ever for any differences between them,
and he therefore objects to being
drawn into a controversy in an affair
in which he is in no way interested,
such as the dispute between Mr.. Rob
inson and Mr.. Knight regarding the

AN EXPERT IN A HOLE.
The Way Blackmailers Are Treated
In Australia.

In Australia.
Under the above heading, the Cairns
Morning Post, Queensland, Australia, pub
fishes the following: Several smart min
ing experts have been trying on a little
game with the holders of good copper or
Tin properties in the Herberton or Chilla-
gOe districts. Their mode of operation is
very simple They go to the holders and
say, Look here, my name carries~weight
down south, and il you don't let me into
this mine l will send down word that will
prevent you selling One or two miners
have been soft enough 10 bite, but in at
least one case an expert was badly taken
down. Two men were sinking on big
lode of copper not 100 miles from Calcifer,
when an expert came along. Both min
ers were on top at the time, and TO them
yesi and if we let you in, you will boom
it along? they asked. of course replied
the expert. / will do whatever 1 can for
YOU. and as the Blank syndicate are al
ready nihbling at your claim, l can get
appointed 10 examine and report on the
mine Well replied the miners, you had
better have a look at the reef as she is
in the sink, and then you will know what
you are doing To this proposition the
expert acceded. and was lowered down
the straight shaft 40 feet to the bottom.
He put in a quarter of an hour knocking
off bits of the lode with a CAD, and, after
gathering them up to put in the bucket,
he discovered that the oildrum had gone
20 the surface. In response to his cries
claim looked down the shaft and asked
the would-be expert what he wanted. L
want the bucket replied the man in. the
sink. oh, you do, do you? Then you are
likely to want it for long time Why,
what's up? anXiously queried the expert.
To which the man on top replied, Your
game is up and the bucket is up. And,
what's more, it is going 10 stay up Then
a long confab took place between the ex-
pert and the miners, with the result that
at the end of an hour or two, pen, ink
and paper were lowered to the bottom by
a long cord. and the expert sat down in
the sink while he wrote as follows: Il
-, herewith admit that l threatened
Blank and Blank to blackmail their cop
per mine unless they consented to give
me a share in said mine; that in consider
alton of their giving me such share L
would manage to get engaged by the
Blank syndicate to report on such mine;
that I would boom il for all it was worth
and that l would engage that my report
would result in their obtaining at least
100 per cent more for their property than
they would otherwise obtain from the
Blank syndicate. l also admit that am
blackguard, a thief, and a liar. and am
unfit to associate with the honest miners
in the field. Signed Blank Blank When
this document reached the surface per
medium of the cord before mentioned, the
unhappy expert was hauled safely to the
top. but his stay on the Chillagoe field
was a short one. He left hurriedly for
the south by the Cintra on Saturday"

TIE DALTON & LARK.
Two Feet of Solid Ore Exposed In the
North Drift.

The Bingham Bulletin, in its weekly
mining review, says:
At the Dalton & Lark the old pump
piping has been causing annoyance,
and fast as it gives out is being re-
placed by new. The most important
work at present is in the north drift
of the $50 level Clark Vein). 1t has been

The face is all ore, and has streak

lena. Outside of this streak the ore
carries Az TO 80 per cent copper. Stop
ing is progressing in this level, as also
at other points, and the output for
shipment for October will exceed that
of last month, which Appropriated 800
tens. The working force at present is
p men.
Grading for towers for the Highland
Boy wire tram is actively progressing,
and, weather permitting, will be COM
pIeted within ten days. The sinuosity
of the main canyon and Carr fork
make il seem almost impossible TO
erect a straight tram, but II is fact
that the tower sites form an exact bee
line between the mine and the depot, a
condition necessary for perfect success
of the structure. Contractor Dederich
has considerable force OF trainers at
y-ork, and timbers ready TO set up are
being turned out at lively rate. IN
less there is some unforeseen interior
ence, the tramway win, as planned, be
ready for business within 90 days from
the time active work on 1t was begun.
The rumor that a wagon road is
about to be constructed up Bailey
gulch TO the Copper Center and other
Boston Consolidated properties is in
Nair
several residences and lots at the
mouth OF the canyon. which the COM
pany would sooner or later have 10
trespass upon, and the buildings VIII
be occupied By its employees. The road,
with other important improvements,
will materialize later on.
Again it is announced that the power
plant at Jordan Narrows will soon be
ready to start, and electricity will be
on tap in Bingham some time in No
vember. We understand the machinery
of the power plant is now all on the
ground.
At the Ophir, head of Markham, I'M
