Emil SutrO Co.

Mr.. Emil Sutro, who has just re-
turned from San Francisco, states that
there is considerable confusion with re-
gard to his company, which arises
through the fact that Mr.. Minis name
is connected with the corporation name.
Mr.. Sutro desires to state positively
that Mr.. Minis has not been in the cor
poration since December; that in the
month of December he (Mr. Sutro)
purchased Mr.. Minis stock in the cor
poration, which at that time amounted
to 2475 shares. Mr.. Minis does not own
any stock in the Mims-Sutro Company.
The name of the new corporation is
Emil Sutro Company, Inc, the officers
being as follows: Emil Sutro, presi-
dent and treasurer; VIM. C. Mikulich,

Manhattan.

Manhattan is now connected with the
outside world by telephone and tele-
graph, the line from Tonopah having
been completed to the new mining camp
Thursday. This is an event of great
Importance to Manhattan and when the
new electric light plant that is to be
installed Immediately, is in operation,
Manhattan will be live, up-to-date
city. Manager Hobbs has received
subscriptions for 300 lights and has
given the people Of Manhattan until
Monday to get signatures for the other
200. AS soon as the 1000 are contracted
for he will commence work on the new
plant.
Robert Pohl, pioneer resident of
Tonopah, came in from Manhattan last
Saturday for a weeks visit. Mr.. Pohl
owns some valuable claims near 'Liti-
cation Hill," which look quite prom
ising.
Prescott Ely and j. ]. McSorley spent
the present week at Manhattan and are
elated over what they saw. Mr.. Ely is
especially enthusiastic. He says Man
haitian has great future and he had
no idea it was so rich. He visited the
Manhattan-Verde property, where sew
eral leasers are at work in good ore,
and where the company is doing work
preliminary to commencing operations
on an extensive scale scale. This prop
erty adjoins the Indian Camp, st.
George and Crescent properties, and is
only separated from the rich Union,
No. 8, by narrow wedge-shaped par
eel of ground.
II think from present indications
that Manhattan is destined to be the
greatest gold camp ever discovered ir
the state of Nevada. The strikes so fan
made cover an immense area, the prov.
en- territory being at least five miles
wide" said Mr.. Ely. Manhattan is
certainly wonder and will undoubted
ly make permanent camp" And Nc
Sorley heartily endorses the views Of
Mr.. Ely, and both gentlemen will hence
forth be ever ready to tell of the many
advantages of Manhattan as a ricf
gold camp.

After Ely Property.

That the Guggenheim Exploration
Company is sparring for another foot
hold in the diggings Of Ely, New,
which are at present commanding
the attention OF so many of the stall
warts in the mining world, is positive
ly known, and while it is perhaps not
consistent with the rule to divulge
the name of the group about which
its grip is being fastened at this time,
it is one toward which not few have
reached out and to land which a big
piece of money is required. 1t was
to inquire into the merits OF the ter
ritory that George Gnnn, for many
years the expert field representative
of the American Smelling and Refn-
ing Company, and by whom several
of the big aud valuable assets in the
company's holdings were borne to it,
tarried so short time in this neck
of the woods, after his arrival from
the East, while during the last few
hours he has been joined by Henry
Krum, the latter dropping his ex-
animation Of the properties OF the
Boston Consolidated at Bingham
under the negotiations which headed
for an early merger of properties
in that camp.

Another big Clifford deal was closed
