Bisbee daily review., 1904-08-20

At the present gait by which mining locations are being made in the heart of the city. it will be well to look un- der the bed before retiring to see if some enterprising genius has not run a tunnel into the house 10 make con nection with the kitchen door.
 The latest in this line is the Divi- dend Fault Mining Claim, and the cen ter monument is located just in front of the old butcher shop of Kinney Bros. in the rear of the fire house. The locator is Harry B. Mccoy. at present proprietor of the Comet sa- loon, who also during his stay in Bis bee has developed a liking for min ing.
 After the usual form of the U s. Mineral Location notice. the locator states that he claims 700 feet in a westerly direction and 500 feet in an eas;erly direction lengthwise of the claim. and 300 feet on each side of the center of the monument
 In fact. this gentleman has eadeav- ored to cover everything that Medigo- vich and Radovich were gracious enough to leave out of their oom Paul claim, which is at present being con tested ir the land office al Tucson. The location goes further, and the next three lines tell the reader that the general course of the lode deposit is from southeast to northwest" Now. this will be news, no doubt. 10 many old timers in this section. If the as- sessment work had been allowed to continue, which was started on Thurs. day, 10 doubt the locator might have been able to obtain at least a color in the bottom of the creek bed. but be- lore the teE-foot hole had assumed the proper proportions, the men whom Mccoy had hired to do the work fell into the hands of the law, and assess. ment work was brought 10 an abrupt ending. The contractors were Wm. Seymour and John Kenney, and they will have their hearing before Justice Brown today, Seymour's hearing being set for II o'clock and Kenney's hear ing at l o'clock
 The first steps toward the location of the Dividend Fault Mine was taken on June l. when the location notice was neatly tucked away in a spice" can about four inches long and depos- tied beneath big rock at the corner of the Shearer property, just across the alley from the residence of Supt Walter Douglas. The next step was on Thursday, when two men were seen digging hole at this point, but no particular attention was paid to them, supposing they were employees of the Water Co., On Friday, however, Wm. Robinson made further inquiries and was informed by the men at work in the hole that they were preparing to lay pipe there. Mir Robinson had his suspicious aroused, and hunting up Street Superintendent Kreigbaum in formed him of the matter. Kreigbaum took immediate action, and when the men returned to the assessment hole after dinner they were arrested on a charge of tearing up the streets of the city without permission of the Council, and will have their hearing today. Harry Mccoy is out with the state ment that holders of property need have no fear, that their property rights will be protected, and that he is will ing to sign any old kind of an agree ment in order to perfect title to what he is pleased to term a valuable piece of mining property that has been lay ing around loose right in our midst for the past twenty years.
 As we said in the beginning, il might be well, simply as matter of precau-
 tion, to look under the bed before re tiring, for assessment holes.
