AN INTERESTING MINING SUIT

The Robinson Mining Company is the
plaintiff in mining suit that has been
begun at Ely that promises to prove
rather sensational. The defendants are
Richard A. Reipe, Henry NJ Fulmer and
Ray r. Ives. Numerous allegations are
made in the complaint and the affair
seems to be rather tangled up. There
will certainly be several peculiar points
for the court to decide.
According to the papers filed with the
county clerk, on or about December 9,
1905, Reipe and Herman Bass, claiming
the ownership of Sunshine claims Nos.
l, 2, 3, a, 5 and Hexton lode claim in
Robinson district, decided the mines to
the plaintiff with the understanding that
they would receive ia, 285 shares.
The allegations continue that one o.
H. Paulson relocated the claims OH the
ground that the original owners had
failed to comply with the law in regard
to locating mining property. A compro-
mise was effected and Paulson was given
claims Nos. 3 and 5 and the Hexton
lode claim This, it is said, was accord
ing to Reipe's wishes, and he was to

CUCCENHE|MS ORGANIZE A
new COPPER COMPANY

United States Senator Simon Guggen-
helm, i'll addition OF being one of the
family of smelter kings, would be one of
the copper kings of the world. The
Guggenheim family has long followed a
policy in connection with its smelling
interests of picking up the best and most
promising mining properties i'll all points
of the world Now it has organized a
new concern to gather into one organ
ization all the rich copper fields it can
secure, and establish copper company
consolidation, which will either control
or largely affect the market.
The Consolidated Copper Company, a
holding concern capitalized at $50 900,
600, has been organized by the Guggen-
helms III New York for the purpose of
absorbing the Utah Copper Company

HEINzE IS SAMpL|NC THE BLUESTONE

A couple of weeks ago the TIMES re-
ported that F. Augustus Heinze had a
couple of experts here examining the
Bluestone mine with view of purchas-
ing that property from Capt. DeLamar,
the present owner. 1t was also stated
that the price asked for the mine was
$40, 900, 600, and that Messrs. Wilson
and Ballinger, who were inspecting the
property were more than pleased with
its showing. Some of our State eN-
changes intimated that our article was
the result of pipe dream, and asserted
that Mr.. Heinze's agents were here only
for the purpose of examining the opera
ton of the electromagnetic separating
plant which is working so successfully
on the Bluestone ores However that
may be Messrs. Wilson and Ballinger
sent in such favorable report that Mr..
Heinze now has force of twenty men
thoroughly sampling the mine under the
direction of Mr.. W. S. Kingsbury.
Should the sampling prove what has
been represented for the mine, and there
is no reason to doubt that it will, nego-
tiations will undoubtedly be begun tor
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1907-07-13

the purchase of the mine. The price
asked for the property by Mr.. DeLamar
is large one 500 600 but the
Bluestone is big mine. There are over
1000, COO tons of copper ore in sight in
the Bluestone mine which will average
5 per cent in copper, if not better. Three
per cent copper means 60 pounds to the
ton, and at 20 cents per pound the value
of the ore would be S12 per ton, and
1000, 900 tons would mean a value OF
S24, 900, 900. 1t has been demonstrated
that over 80 per cent of the values i'll the
ore can be saved by the process now i'll use.
We are not asserting that Mr.. Heinze
will pay $40, 900, 600 for the Bluestone
mine, but are asserting that that is the
figure placed upon it by Mr.. DeLamar
and we are of the opinion that the prop
ertv is worth all that is asked for it.
The sooner some of our contemporaries
pet rid of the idea that the TINES does
not know what it is talking about and is
telling anything but the truth about the
mines and other possibilities of this great
district the more reliable will their col
umns become.

Clipper DISTRICT
HAS GOOD COPPER
New District in the Smith Valley Country That Blossoming
Out as Rich Copper Section.

F. c. Ehlers, who returned from Well
ington yesterday, in reply to the ques-
ton as to how the mining situation
lonked in the Clipper district, which is
situated about seven miles southeast of
Wellington, stated that the outlook was
very bright for the opening up Of two,
and possibly more, big properties in the
district In doing location work on a
number of claims copper ore has been
uncovered OH eight claims that assays
from to Fl per cent, and the lodges
on the surface range in width from 10
to so feet.
Messrs. Fallon and Kimmel and War
rem are now driving 4xo 1-2 tunnel on
the Clipper No. claim in southerly
direction which will cut the ledge at $50
feet at an estimated depth of IS feet.
The ledge is between % and rs feet in
width on the surface and has shown as
says that run better than $50 per ton in
copper There is very little gold or
other metals associated with the copper
in this district. The above named part
les are also arranging to drive tunnel
on the Clipper No. 2 claim. This tun
mel will, at distance of $50 feet, cross
cut the ledge at a vertical depth of
about so feet The ledge on this claim
is 80 feet wide on the surface and assays

turn over to the plaintiff so, 600 shares.
The next in the seemingly mixed-up
affair is the allegation that Fulmer &
Ives sold to Thomas O'Neil 102, 780
shares, thereby placing Reipe in such
position that he couldn't comply with
the agreement with the plaintiff to de-
liver the SO, 900 shares. 1t is asserted in
the complaint that Fulmer & Ives had
no right to aid Reipe in the alleged
scheme to defraud the company out of
the $4,000 shares. The allegations con-
tinue to the effect that Bertha Ives was
assigned $4,000 shares and Hulse "a, 600
for the sole purpose of preventing the
plaintiff from receiving the $4,000
shares, and that they merely held it in
trust.
The complaint reads that the plaintiff
is the owner of large and valuable mines
that are capitalized for 81 ,000, 900 at 81
per share, and that the value of the stock
is dependent upon the development and
production of rich ore. The stock is
now valued at so cents, but according to
the complaint, should be placed at S3.
The plaintiff asks for the SO, 900 shares
of stock and for Judgment for costs,

COPPER COMES DOWN IS BURNING BRICK

5. HI. Wagner who came here some
weeks ago to investigate the feasibility
of starting brick yard, has found what
he thinks is superior quality of clay
and is now about ready to fire up small
kiln of brick as test. If this kiln of
5000 brick turns out to be the right
quality there will be no trouble in sell
ing any quantity of brick here for some
time to come, and arrangements will be
made to manufacture and burn the brick
on quite large scale. The small test
kiln will also demonstrate the figure that
the brick can be manufactured for. With
brick yard and lime kiln in running
order in this immediate vicinity it is
more than likely that buildings can be
constructed here of brick cheaper than
they can be built of lumber, especially
with lumber held at SIS per thousand
for rough and from $40 to $50 for fin

and other properties of like character,
which the Guggenheims now own or
will secure.
Senator Guggenheim, when asked
about the company, said he could give
no information Oh the subject, as he did
not know anything about it personally
He is following the policy upon which
he entered at the time of his election to
the United States Senate, that of not
having any direct connection with the
great corporations in which he was form
erly SO important a part. He resigned
as all officer or director in nearly four
score concerns. His interests, however,
are involved with all the enterprises in
which his family is engaged; and while
he will have no direct control over this
new company he will, of course, be
financially interested.

are said to show copper values averaging
between $ and per cent.
The showing OH the Peerless claim,
owned by Messrs. Fallon, Kimmel,
Warren and Ehlers, is very good. Min
ers who are familiar with the product of
the famous Ludwig mine have hard
work distinguishing the ore from the
two places Extensive development
work will be started on this piece of
ground i'll a few months. Plans are
being made to do about 500 feet of work
in the shape of crosscut tunnel. drifts,
ETC., and when the work is started it
will pushed along as rapidly as money
and Drawn can do it.
The Success group, Nos l. and 8,
has an excellent copper showing and as
says running better than $50 per ton
have been obtained from picked samples
close to the surface. Enough work has
not been done to determine the size of
the ledge, but it is thought that it will
compare favorably with those previously
mentioned both in values and size.
To sum up the situation the Clipper
District looks as though it would prove
to be high grade copper camp, and
within year from now it may conf
dently be expected that high grade cop
per ore will be shipped in considerable
quantity from the district

Now That Matter Of Price Has Been
Settled Sales May Be Expected.

AS has been frequently predicted, says
a Boston dispatch, copper producers and
consumers have reached basis of agree
ment and as result the price of differ
ent grades has been materially reduced,
with resultant sales running on to mill
ions of pounds. New prices agreed upon
by buyers and sellers are: Casting, 2lc;
electrolitic, 22c; Calumet and Hecla lake
brand, 23c.
At the latter figure Calumet and Hecla
has already sold several million pounds
and is preparing to sell for domestic
consumption covering the next quarter.
United Metals and Phelps, Dodge &
Co. have reduced price, and large sales
of export electrolitic have been made
for export Phelps, Dodge & Co. says:
''The reduction to % cents we believe
will represent the bottom level. Indica-
tions favor an advance for the next
month or two covering future sales
rather than further decline. We have
received large orders of copper on the
new price basis. When the in-rush of
new orders is over we expect the next to
move toward a higher level. The metal
exchanges whose prices are considered
nominal, as related to big selling
agencies, have made sharp reduction
on all grades.

WHEELER IS SHIPPING ORE

c. ID. Rooklidge, Of the Wheeler Gold
Mines Co., is expected in Yerington to-
day or tomorrow for the purpose of at
tending the shipment of ore from the
mine. The present ore developments in
the Wheeler are said to be all that could
be desired, and the company expects to
be able to ship two carloads per month
from the mine from this time on.
The first car has started for the Salt
Lake smetters, and from gold value
standpoint it is expected to illustrate
how finely the management is being re-
rewarded at this time. 1t will be re-
called that the Wheeler recently showed

same, it maintains its value extent satis-
