NORTH OF OGDEN.
What Is Going On In the Mines of
Willard Hill.

From a letter received from Joseph
Goddard of Ogden, secretary of the
American Mining & Milling company,
whose property is located on Willard
hill, the statement was made that the
men had just come down from the mine
bringing with them some quartz that
was full Of wire gold while other
specimens OF the ore PANIED many col
ors. The company is feeling encouraged
over the outlook for the property.
The Brigham Bugler, in speaking of
that section, says:
B. +. Jones of Willard was in Brig
ham Tuesday. For upwards of 20
years Mr. Jones has been interested
in mines on Willard hill, and has done
considera Bile work there. He thinks
near to $4,000 in work has been done
on some of the claims.
The American is now working a
force of half a dozen men. They are
now in ore that runs well in copper,
silver and gold. An equal force is en-
gagged at the Superior. The claim boasts
a tunnel over 1,2G0 feet in depth. 1t is
in so far that it is now necessary to
pump air down to the miners. The
laborers have recently penetrated the
wall and are momentarily expecting to
strike a rich main body of ore.
Mr.. Jones is interested in the five
Banberger claims, which are about to
be patented. Some Of these were To-
Gated on account of the great deposit
of almost pure iron ore. One Of the
Willard mines is now bonded for 500
GOO To western capitalists who are eX-
pending considerable money in develop
ment work. Mr.. Jones is Of the opinion
that ore will be shipped from some of
the best mines this summer.

Sacramento shareholders were feeling
good yesterday, over the decision Of
Judge Marshall in the case of n. J.
Curtis ct al VS.. ]. S. Lakin ct al. in
VolVing the title TO the Sacramento
mine, at Mercur.
The case was argued and submitted
on demurrer in the United States cir
cult court before Judge Marshall about
a month ago, and yesterday the judge
rendered his decision, in which he Sis
tanned the demurrer, the decision being
virtually in favor of the defendants, al
though the plaintiffs were given 30 days
in which to file ar amended compliant
The decision is one OF the utmost i'm
portance to the Sacramento company,
as the court held that the company IS
valid corporation, and THAI the title to
the Sacramento group is vested in the
company, according 10 the plaintiffs
own bill OF complaint; ard the court
further held that the plaintiffs have no
cause OF action against J. S. Lakin, be-
cause of their failure to assert their
rights. if they had any, within the
proper time, and, further, that they
could not wait until the propeIts' had
become of great value and then claim
to own an interest in it; that is to say,
where property had been developed BY
the courage and energy, and at the ex-
pense oS defendants.
The court further said: I'VE look
with disfavOr upon the claims of those
who have lain idle while awaiting the
results of development, and VII require
not only clear proofs of fraud. but
prompt assertion of plaintiffs rights"
The disposition of this case against
the Sacramento virtually clears the
company of any and all cases against
it, and the title of the property IS clear
from any cloud, unless some equally alb
surd claim should be trumped up
against it in the future.
j. NJ. Denny was attorney for the
plaintiffs, while Booth, Lee and Gray
were attorneys for the defendants.

New Air Compressor For the Eureka
Hill

Eureka. Feb. News comes from
the Martha Washington that a large
body of ore had been encountered in
that property which, when assayed,
ran - ounces and from 81 to So in gold
to the ton. The extent of the ore body
cannot as vet be ascertained.
The Eureka Hill Mining company has
decided to replace the small air com
pressor that is now installed at their
workings at this place with a more
substantial and larger one, and has
placed an order in the hands of an
eastern firm for such. The one which is
now in use is entirely too small, and
is incapable of doing the amount of
work that is required In a mine that
furnishes the ore TO keep 100 stamps
dropping day after day. The new COM
pressor is looked for any day, and to
put it in place will mean the closing of
the mine for week at least.
Fifteen carloads of ore went out over
the Rio Grande Western this noon,
bound for Salt Lake.
