BIG DEAL
At EUREKA
prominent C0eur D'Alene Mimi,
Men May Put Capital
into the District

Mr.. w. D. Grenough of Mullin ar.
rived in the city last evening and left
this morning with j. A. Huysebe 70,
eureka. Mr.. Grenough is a prominen,
merchant and mine owner in the Occur
Aienes and Is brother of Chas
Grenough of the firm of Wren & Gren-
ough. His trip to Eureka at this time
Is IN connection with the inspection of
some properties in that district which
he and his associates are about to he
come interested in.
Mr.. Grenough was seen last night bv
The Teller reporter and asked for in
FORMATION with relation to the pronosed
deal but refused to make a statement.
He said that this was his first trim to
Lewiston and that he was highly
pleased with the looks of the CITY from,
first glance
Mr.. Huysebe was seen and would
volunteer no information with refer
ence to the object of the trip Of Mr.
Grenough. He said that there was
nothing for publication. The fact that
man OF Mr.. GrenOughs stamp should
become interested in visiting the Eu-
reka and Imnaha camps speaks highly
Tor that section as 1t is believed that
should he and his associates become
interested there that 1t will be the maxi
ing or those camps. The Wren & Gren-
ough syndicate are amony the heaviest
mine operators in idaho and Montana
and own the Snowshoe and Morning
mines In the Occur d'Alenes. The ad-
vent OF this strong combination into the
Eureka camp can not but give a re-
newed impetus to the work of the de-
velopment of the properties in that Sec
ton. Mr. Grenough and Mr.. Huysebe
expect to be absent about ten days.
