Nevills Mining and Ranch Interests to be
Sold

The S. F. Chronicle of Tuesday says
that a large part, if not all the hold
ings of w. A. Nevills, the well-known
mine operator, in mines in Tuolumne
county. and vineyards in Fresno county,
are to be sold under foreclosure, to
satisfy claim of over 5000, 900 held by
the estate of Charles Doe, for money
loaned to Neyills, and to secure which
the latter deposited collateral in stock
in the Rawhide and App mines, also
Guild Gold Mining Co., in TuOlumne
county, and share of Paragon and La
Favorita vineyard companies in Fresno
county. The securities are said to rep
resent value of two million dollars.
The Union Trust Company. as executor
of the will of Chas. Doe, gives notice of
the sale of stock at auction to satisfy
the indebtedness. Captain Nevills,
when asked by a reporter about the
matter, said that he intended to settle
the debt in few days, and that pub
lie sale of his interests would not be
necessary. He also claims that by a
verbal understanding the money was
to be repaid in December, 1905.

The Works at Electra.

A large number of men are employed
in cement work for the support of the
new pipe line. Massive piers at dis
tance of few feet apart are built for
the support of the pipe, each joint of
which in itself weighs five tons, to say
nothing of the strain it will be subject
to under the immense pressure of 100
feet when in use. The pipe will be not
only supported underneath, but anchor
ed in the most substantial manner.
The pipe line is not quite completed,
although the pipe itself is about all on
the ground. One piece of machinery
for the plant passed through town a
few days ago that attracted much at
tention. 1t consisted of the gate to
operate the flow of water for the new
line. 1t is ponderous piece of ma
chinery in itself, weighing seven tons.
