RIPPLE IN TROUBLE
IT HAS BEEN CLOSED DOWN ON
INJUNCTION ORDER.
OWNERS VERSUS LESSEES
Latter Claim Their Lease Was Extend
ed Verbally From October 10 Until
February 22-Judge Leslie
3 Makes Ruling.

The Ripple mining claim in the north
ern part of the state has become the
bone of contention between its owners
and those who had lease on it and
will practically remain in a stupo" until
the courts decide which side is right.
The property is owned by T. L. Collins
j. c. e. Barker, j. 7. Arlington ana
others of Great Falls, but H. l.. Steele
and Daniel McKinnon had a written lease
on It which expired October TO- 1ne
lessees allege that the owners verbally
agreed to extend the lease until Febru-
ary 22 1902. This allegation the owners
denied and petitioned the district court
of Cascade county for an order tenn
porarily restraining the lessees from
working the property pending the hear
ing of an order to show cause why the
Temporary order should not assume the
shape of an injunction and remain in
force until the final determination of the
matter. The order of injunction was
granted by Judge Leslie last Thursday
and the plaintiffs in the case gave
bond of $4,000 to indemnify the lessees
provided the matter is finally decided in
their favor.
In connection with the property Messrs.
Steele and McKinnon have been grant
ed permission to inspect and survey the
workings of the Ripple with a view to
furthering their interests i'll suit re-
Gently brought by them in the federal
court against the Helena Smelling COM
pany to secure judgment for $4,000 worth
of Ripple ore. which they allege the
plaintiffs in the injunction suit extracted
from the property. They began the in
spection this morning.
The action against the smelling COM
pany having been instituted in the fed
eral court, the owners of the Ripple
maintained that the state court was
without jurisdiction in the matter of
granting the other side the right to in
spect, but Judge Leslie held that so long
as the mine was in his district and the
letition for inspection was an original
matter, he had right to pass upon
the petition.

"SALTED" The MINE
HOW THE STOCK OF THE DORA
WAS DOOMED.
SALTER TELLS THE STORY
He Stole Ore From Another Mine and
Spread It Around the Dora Shaft
Showed Assay Returns
to Reporters.

In Spokane there are various ways Of
booming mining stock in wildcat schemes,
and one of them is now being aired In
court. 1t is an old scheme, though. and
has been worked from the Eastern edge
Of the Western mining district to the
beach of the Pacific ocean. It has been
worked in Butte, but Butte Is a hard
place in which to keep 1t moving unless
the stock Is sold elsewhere. Z.
In the trial Of the suit brought by w. q
Sivyer against George E. Sonneman and
Jay Lawyer in Spokane. an action in
which the plaintiff seeks to recover judg-
ment for $40 GEO. it has been developed
that John Blackburn ''salted" the Dora
mine in Republic camp for the purpose of
booming the stock Of the Dora, and stole
the salt" from the Republic dump. In
giving his testimony Blackburn said he
carried about so pounds of the ore to the
Dora and distributed 1t around the mouth
of the shaft. He then took one piece and
had 1t assayed and it returned a value
Of $1,000 per ton. Blackburn said he
spread the news Of the richness" of the
"ore of the Dora" even going so far as
to tell all the newspaper men he could
find. He also showed them the assay
certificate Then the boom in Dora stock
commenced. On the strength Of the re-
Sivyer. and several others bought large
blocks of stock but when it was learned
that they had been jobbed several OF
the investors assigned their claims to
Sivyer, and the latter brought suit
against Sonneman and Lawyer. on the
alleged ground that they had been the
chief conSpirators in the deal.
In his testimony Blackburn further said
that he had been hired by SOnneman to
begin work on the Dora; that Sonnema4
wanted the shaft sunk near the end line
of the Republic workings; that he want
ed strike of ore reported at once. Black
burn said he demurred to that, but prom
Used Sonneman he would report strike
as soon as he could do so.
Blackburn dipped deeper. He said that
with two miners he had gone to the Re-
public and sunk a shaft 10 or IL feet,
striking at the bottom some soft spar Of
no value. That shaft, he said, was aban-
doned and a new one started 30 feet
south. Blackburn said he had then gone
to the Republic dump after dark ana
stolen about so pounds of rich ore for
Sailing" purposes: that he used the
ore. scattering it around the collar of the
shaft, and having one piece assayed; that
after the assay was made he showed the
certificate and some of the ore to John
Reivis, editor of the Republic Miner and
also the correspondent OF the spokesman
Review and requested them to give the
Dora property good "send-eff" in their
respective papers. Then the stock had
gone up in price.
Continuing the story, Blackburn testi-
fed that Editor Reavis was to receive
5000 shares of the stock, and there would
be no difficulty in securing the pubhca-
ton Of desirable reports.

Actor and His Company Well Received
in "The Mountebank."

In 1.-The Mountebank" Frederick
Warde, with a versatility that we'll sus-
tanned his reputation as an actor, ap-
peared in tragedy and comedy before
a large audience at Suttons new the
alter last evening.
The distinguished actor is supported
by capable company, and in the char
acter of William Belphegor, the wander
ing mOuntebank, he carried the people
from laughter to tears at will.
Once the persistent long applause Of
the audience drew Mr.. Warde before the
curtain, and in one of his happy speeches
he expressed his gratitude for the recep-
ton and encouragement that had been
offered him and his company, not fall
ing to make a reference to the new
playhouse here.
Antoinette Ashton in the role Of
Madeline, wife Of the mountebank, did
splendid work, and her acting was often
applauded. May Warde as Mademoiselle
Flora, carried her part we'll.
The play, with its many thrilling sit
uations, will be repeated at the We'd
nesday matinee, and it will doubtless at
tract another large audience.
This evening the company will render
king Lear" while Julius Caesar will

WILL ERECT A CONCENTRATION.
Butte Men Think Well of the Britannia
Mine on Vancouver Island.

A recent arrival from the Britannia
mine. located on Vancouver island. states
that preliminary surveys have been made
by the company for big 6o0-ton con-
centrator. The Butte men who have an
interest in the Britannia have charge of
the work. The concentration will be put
in as soon as possible.
While all the work that Is being done
at present consists of surveying. heavy
work on the plant will begin in the
spring. A tramway and wharfs will
be built and the total improvements to
be made will cost a quarter of million
dollars.
With these improvements the Britain
MIA may become a great mine. The
property has been prominently before
the public for some time on account OF
the magnitude of the ore bodies and the
immense figure of several of the bonds
that have been given upon it.
