Judge Clancy, in the district court
at Butte recently, rendered the most
important mining decision of the year,
IN which he granted, point by point,
all asked by the plaintiffs, J. Augustus
Heinze ct al, in the suit against the
Wasnoe Copper company and the Ana
conda company on the Nipper river.
The suit involved ore bodies under the
surfaces of the Oden and other claims
owned by the defendants. Heinze
claimed to own the ore bodies on the
ground that they were extralateral
portions of the Nipper vein. TheI
plaintiffs alleged at the trial that the
Nipper discovery vein crossed the Nip
per claim east and west and crossed
both end lines, and that it dipped
south through the south side lines,
the ore bodies sued for being portions
of the vein to the south. The defend
ants denied that there was any Nipper
vein at all in the Nipper mining claim
and at the trial put in evidence to
show that the only vein in the Nipper
claim was the Blue X fault fissure,
and that it crossed the claim north.
east and southwest. They therefore
denied the plaintiffs had any extra
lateral rights or had any claim to the
ore bodies involved. Judge Clancy, in
his decision, adopted all the findings
of fact and conclusions of law pre-
scented by the plaintiffs and refused to
adopt any of the findings or conclu-
sions of the defendants. The suit in
volved mining property to the value
Of $l0,000O0O. Exceptions to the judg-
ment of the court were taken by the
defendants and the case will be ap-
pealed to the Supreme court.
