with minerals. do not constitute a vel.
or VEINS" said Judge Mediation.
Mr.. Patterson, however only laughed
and no one agreed with Mr. Mediator
| that he understood the position of tn,
| defendants correctly.
The witness was asked a number o.
| questions relative to the ore connec-
| tions in the different workings, anG
| one of the questions asked was whether
| Mr.. Macfarlane or the Montana Ore
| Purchasing company had feared to rur
the S00-foot drift far enough west tC
| go through the fault at point.
Mr.. Patterson objected to the testi.
mony as to what the witness or the
Montana Ore Purchasing company
| feared.
Il am not trying to prove fear, but
the reason why the drift was not
driven" said Mr. Mediation. "On
! cross examination the inference seemed
to have been created that work was
stopped because of fear of the results
of further development work, and
think we have right to show the real
reason why work was stopped"
The court sustained the objection
Work on that drift had been stopped
by an injunction.
Court adjourned about the time for
the noon recess. and when it recon-
vened at o'clock Mr.. Mediation stated
that a demand in writing had been
made on the defendants to produce all
maps, cross sections. etc, they in
tended to use at the trial, or had pre-
pared for that purpose.
Il want to ask" said Judge Nc
Hatton, IF they have been produced"
Il wish to ask if you are serious"
said Mr.. Patterson, turning to Judge
Mediation.
I'VE are" was the reply.
And you say that without a smile?"
Yes SIR" said Judge Mediation. al
though he did smile when he said it.
We'll. I don't know a thing about
it" said Mr. Patterson, land l would
ask that the matter be postponed I'M
til the arrival of Mr.. Scallon and the
other counsel"
Judge Mediation then resumed the re-
direct examination of the witness, and
asked him when. in his opinion, the ore
deposits were made in the transverse
assures. An objection to the ques-
ton was sustained.
Il don't think it amounts to anything
anyway" said Judge Clancy.
did you go with Mr.. Wiley on Sat-
urday on the Johnstown and Rarus
claims, as requested in court by coun-
sel?"
Yes, SIR"
State if you pointed out to Mr..
Wiley the outcrop of the vein or lode
upon the surface
Yes, sir"
In answer to further questions Mr..
MaCfarlane pointed out the various
places at which he showed Mr.. Wiley
the vein outcroppings. He had taken
samples of ore from the different To-
calities, which were offered in evidence.
Some reference has been made to
zones: will you please state when, in
connection with matters in controversy
here. you first heard the term used
in connection with the naturalization
of the ground in controversy?
An objection was made on the ground
that the matter was incompetent as
evidence. and was not proper cross
examination.
Il don't think it amounts to much"
said the court, land the witness can
answer
THE first time I heard or observed
this term in relation to this case was
in an affidavit made in March, 1897. by
the defendants in this action. who were
plaintiffs in the former. the original ac-
ton. The afiidavits We're made by
witnesses for the plaintiff in that case.
thought the term was entirely APP
plicable to conditions that existed in
the ground. and l adopted it,"
