Renewing Right-of-W Way.

right -of-way agent, has been in
town several days this week COM
plotting the renewal of that COM
pany's grants to this point. Under
the laws of this state the company
could only hold the right-of-way
for five years without doing some
work on it and as the time had
about elapsed it was necessary to
secure renewals. While the work
does not necessarily mean that the
0. r. & n. will begin to build in
the immediate future, it shows
eonclusively that they expect t.
occupy this territory sometime and
are not going to relinquish any add
vantages or rights that they al
ready have.

PROMOTER IN TROUBLE,
Frank s. Hobbs in New York.
Jail.


Frank Hobbs who is quite we'll
known in the mining camps OF this
county and who made the trip to
Thunder Mountain two years ago
with Harry Cone + rom this place,
is evidently in sci ious trouble in
New York. The Tribune Of last
Friday says:
Frank s. Hobbs of Idaho, is in
Ludlow street Jail on an order OF
arrest obtained by Edward B. Tus-
tin, treasurer of the Greene Cop
per company, who says he ad-
vanced $1,000 to Hobbs with which
to develop a gold mining property.
Tustin brought sui it when an agent
represented to him that the sup
posed mine was not as represented
and alleged Hobbs did not own it.
Tustin at once applied to Judge
Martin of the Kings county court
for an order of arrest on the
ground that Hobbs was about to
leave the city for his native Idaho.
The prisoner was held in default of
$500 bail.
Hobbs, it is alleged, represented
that with little dit iiculty he took
out 800, 900 worth of ore from the
property controlled by the so-called
Comstock Mining Company. He
is said to have represented that
there were tunnels and crosscuts in
the mine and that everything
could soon be put in working order
for there was a stream there which
could easily supply power for a
ten stamp mill. The 81 100000 in
stock was tied up in such a way
that little could be done until a
working capital was raised, and
Mr.. Tustin finally consented to
furnish $4,000 and actually adj
vanced $500. A ccording to the
report of an expert who later went
to Idaho he found the land to be
in possession of A. Wayland, who,
according to the records, had
staked it out six months before
Hobbs had done SO. Wayland had
sunk a shaft and built a cabin on
which was posted d notice that the
public at large and especially
a concern known as the Comstock
Mines company would approach
the mine at their peril.
Hobbs is know n in Lewiston,
where his reputation has been good
During the Thu nder Mountain
stampede a year ago he went int
the camp representing some Lew
iston people. He made a numbe
Of locations at the time, and ha
since been east with view 0
enlisting capital in the claims. The
Comstock is one Of these, and is il
the immediate vicinity of the Dew
ey. The conflict of title will
Wayland is not d understood here
as enquiries by others resulted il
learning that the records are clea
in that respect. Any representa-
ton Hobbs may have made regard
: ing the extent of the development
work done, and what disposition
he made of the $500 alleged t.
have been received, are unknown
in Lewiston.
