THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Money for Machinery, Also
Sale Pending.

w. e.. Calder returned early last week
from Portland and Puget Sound towns,
as noted in THE MINER; but did not re.
main long enough to give any one an op.
roriunity to listen to his story. He re.
turned Thursday from Baker City, where
he went to continue his talk with General
Warren.
Mr.. Calder brings the information that
financially strong syndicate OF Portland
capitalists has been organized to make
producing mine Of the Inter Mountain.
Machinery will probably not be installed
this season, but work will be continued
all winter, blocking out ore bodies and ex-
perimenting with the rock for the purpose
st determining the best method OF ex-
'ractinS values. Mr.. Calder says that
ample capital is now in the treasury TO
carry out the plans OF the company.
And further than this, a sale outright OF
this property is pending; which, il it is
tonsummated, will bring into this district
one of the strongest mining syndicateS IN
the world.
Mr. Calder says that in all Of his trav.
els. he didn't see town with one.fourth
ut the building and business activity OF
Sumpter, yet the impression prevails that
'the Sumpter boom has busted" When
he found Il man OF Intelligence he took the
trouble to explain the situation here; that
every line OF legitimate business is doing
we'll and that only in the wild demand for
Ie Il estate is the "boom busted" There is
even a better demand for mining property
than there was a wear ago.
OF course, Mr.. Calder gives the Port.
lam push jolly; about having become
really interested in our mines and being
willing to invest rusty money In good,
conservative propositions. Yet, there are
score Of people around here who have
'neen working on that same Portland line,
for 4 year past and haven't made wages.

AUSTIN BROWN.

Austin H. Brown, the new manager
for Capt. De La Mars Bully Hill mines
in Shasta county, Cal, made his ap-
p%earance at the general offices veSter-
day and devoted most of the day to a
study of the maps pertaining tn condi-
lions underground and of plans for the
projected smelter, says the Salt Lake
Tribune. Mr.. Browns experience as IL
mining engineer extends through many
countries. He was the first government
inspector at Ell Paso, Tex where his
duty was to see that none of the peOned
product consisting of lead ore got into
this country until the tariff that Uncle
Sam exacted as a protection to Ameri-
can miners and American labor was paid.
After serving his country for several
years in that capacity. he was u
to accept the superintendent. of the
Anaconda copper refinery, where he re-
maine for some time. and then went
to the famous Tom Boy mine near Tel
luride, Colo, where he remained until
it's acquisition by the London Exploration

ANSWER IN THE
GREY ROCK CASE
DEFENDANTS DENY ENTRANCE
OF THE MINE AND THE AL
LEGGED EXTRACTION OF ORE,
NO ORE TAKEN FROM VEIN
APEXING IN GREY ROCK.
Controversy Arises Over Working of
Rock Island Claim by Leasers
from M. o. p. Company.

F. Augustus Heinze, A. p. Heinze, the
Montana Ore Purchasing company, the
Johnstown company. John Bottego, D.
B. Vincent. John McGinnis. Carlos War
field and the Butte Mining company, all
defendants in the suit brought by the
| Butte & Boston Mining to pre-
Iyent alleged encroachments on the ore
bodies of the Grey Rock mining claim,
filed their answer in the district court to-
day. In the document they allege that
as to whether the plaintiff is the owner
an entitled to possession of the Grey
| Rock they have no knowledge and there
fore deny it. They deny that on the LIST
of September, 1899, or at any other time
they u~nlawfully entered the Grey ROCK
through workings from the Cora ana
Rock Island and extracted ore valued at
$4,000 or any other sum. Ihey deny
that the alleged trespass was ever COM
mitted by them. Each important allie
cation in the first cause of action men
toned in the complaint is denied.
Further answering, F. Augustus
Heinze says he owns the Rock Island, a
| patented claim, and all of the veins and
lodges having their apex within it's sur
face boundaries: tha there is a ledge
having its top nearly parallel with the
side lines of the property, and which in
it's downward course SO far departs from
| the perpendicular as to pass through the
! side, lines of the Rock Island and enter,
in it's downward course, What is known
as the Grey Rock claim, which lies partly
adjoining the south ines of the Rock
Island; that on September l he leased
the Rock Island to D. B. Vincent and
John Bottego for one year, giving them
the privilege of working the property
from the 6OO-foot level to the surface;
that they extracted a quantity OF ore,
but it was taken from the vein of the
property under lease to them n not
from any vein having it's apex in Grey
Rock ground.

A FOR A PRISONER.
Deputy Sheriff Evans Won a Cross
Country Run Yesterday.

George Ogier was arrested at his home
in South Butte yesterday afternoon on a
charge of having taken something worth
as much as $50 from someone else in JEFF
ferson county, but be fore being landed in
Jail he gave the officer, Deputy Sheriff Ed
Evans, the high sign of the ancient order
of 'Looloos'' and escaped for the time be-
ing.
The arrest was made on Geographic in
formation from the sheriff of Jefferson
county and as soon as it had been con-
summated the prisoner asked permission
to step into a side room and speak to his
wife. 1t was granted. When he had fin
ished the consultation with Mrs. Ogier
he dropped out of a convenient window
and ran. Evans, however, was soon on
his trail. Ogier headed for the Parrot
smelter and Evan attempted to head
him off and prevent him from getting
into the building. At the half Ogier was
several lengths in the lead and going
easy, while Evans was running under a
full, he being desirious of saving himself
for the finish. When near the smelte1
Ogier turned out and started towards
the flat with the intention of covering the
full course. water jump and all, but
Evans drew a u and told him to stop
or he would shoot; and he stopped. Ogiel
was pretty when caught, as he was in
light, but Evans was out to the last ounce
and barely lasted long enough to get un-
der the wire.

UTAH CON.

Butte spectators who hold Utah Con
stock will be interested in the following
from the Boston News Bureau:
We understand the Standard Oil peo-
pie, who at one time owned above 15O, 900
shares of Utah Consolidated copper min
ing stock, have reduced their holdings to
about SO, 900 shares.
They must nave made a profit on their
sales, as their average cost vas not
above $33 per share and they are believed
to have sold from $50 per share down.
A stockholder says: ut seems to me
that the policy Of the Standard Oil Co.
in copper is to restrict production. I
understand that the Utah is turning out
out 200 tons Of ore per day. while the
mine is capable Of supplying 1000 tons
or more per day. The directors nave
voted to double the capacity of the
smelling works but I do not see n ac-
ton in that direction. At the last w
nual meeting, when President Burrage
retired, the election was a compromis ,
as there are now four large interests and
no one interest in control. I understand
that Samuel Newhouse is now a large
stockholder and is willing to return to
control of the property. George F. Arm
strong & Co. represent a large amount
of stock and the Lewisohns also have a
very large interest.

The semi-annuai meeting OF the share
holders of the Montana Mining
Qlmltedl of Maryville was held May 8
IN London, England. The most impor-
tant feature of the meeting was the dis
cussion relative to deep sinking. This
discussion was started by the irrepressi-
bic DR.. W~iglesWorth, who holds the opin-
ion that the great Drum Lummon has
been mineralized from below. Consider
able work was done in the search for new
ore bodies at the 1,6~u-fOot level of the
property, but the search was not success
full and General Manager Burrell ex-
pressed the opinion in his last report that
the 1920 level was the bottom of pay ore
in the vein.
DR.. W~iglesworth believed that the the
DRY of naturalization from above was
formed upon imperfect observation and
not properly ascertained facts. 1t was
brought w some years ago by Pro-
~fessors Werner n ewa of Nevada
The condition of the mine was such, said
the doctor. that something had to be
done in the way of deep sinking or the
mine should be abandoned. During he
first three months of the present year
the Drum Lummon had produced $685.

Mr.. R. T. Bayliss, the consulting engi-
neer, pointed out the labor that would
be involved in such an undertaking. The
mine, he said, contained workings ex-
tending over 25 miles and no mining en-
gineer who had any regard for his pro-
feSsional reputation would undertake
such a task in less than - months. The
motion to employ an expert was defeated.
The report of Mr.. Burrell was adopted.

In the suit of John D.. Barton against
c.. F. Riggs, an action having as its. OBJ
iect the satisfaction of a Judgment for
about $500 obtained by the plaintiff
against the defendant in the superior
court of Cook county, Ill, a complaint in
intervention was filed in the district
court today. The intervenor is George
K. Neher, who states in his complaint
that on the 23rd of this month the Sheriff
of Silver Bow county attached divers
pieces of theatrical scenery, trunks,
clothing, robes, wigs and other theatrical
APPARATUS as the property of Riggs, but
the property lid not at that time belong
to Riggs: that it belonged To him, Neher;
that when the attachment was levied he
gave the sheriff a cash bond of $500 to
release the property in order that he,
the ~intervenor. might go ahead and full
fill his theatrical engagements in various
parts of the state of Montana and else
where.
