both the Cole and Lawrence interest!
in the Cole-Goodwin mining property
comprising sixteen claims, situated or
upper Mineral creek, thus ending the
litigation that has been in progress
for some time past. Messrs. CLARK
and Stewart also recently secured
the Westbrook & Robertson property
of seven claims adjoining the Gibson
mine on the southeast, and they have
acquired by location seventeen
claims adjoining the Westbrook &
Robertson property on the southeast.
The Globe Western Copper company
has been organized to take over all
of the forty claims mentioned, the
articles of incorporation of which
company will be published soon. In
the Cole-Goodwin the new company
will have a developed mine of great
value and which could soon be made
a regular producer.-Belt.
Action has been instituted in the
district court at Phoenix, Arizona,
by stockholders against the Ciene-
quita Copper company charging
fraud. The fraud charged is the or
ganization of a company of the same
name in the state of Nevada by the
officers of the Arizona company and
the transfer to the Nevada company
of all the property of the Arizona
company, in fraud of the right of the
cfn LII he All
company. The court is asked to de-
clare such transfer null and void and
to declare the title to the property
to be still in the Arizona COM
pany, and to appoint a re-
ceiver for the property pending the
litigation. The property is said to
be very valuable and the question
seems to be whether it is owned by
the stockholders of the Cienequita
Copper company of Arizona or by
the stockholders of the Cienequita
Copper company of Nevada.
