manipulation was elusive; he had
lodged people and officers before,
and although he was reported as hav-
ing been arrested on the coast and in
the east, he is still at large.
Sullivan and company were very
proud over this maneuver, and there
was not much sympathy felt for Ly-
man, for stories leaked out of his ex-
PLOTS in the past, and these were not
to his credit. There was not much
sympathy for Scheffels, the broker
from Chicago, for the friends of Ly-
man gave out a story to this wise:
Lyman sent a big block of stock to
a Chicago clique of brokers to be held
for him, and not to be sold at less
than so cents a share. Seheffels and
his clique were made aware of the
fact that this stock could be had, and
when later, Lyman wired to them to
buy all they could get for so cents a
share, there was a busy set of brok-
ers in Chicago. Scheffels and his
crowd bought the stock for so cents
and drew on Lyman at the rate of so
cents. Lyman turned down the
drafts on the ground that the brck-
ers had paid only so cents a share,
and were endeavoring to cheat him.
Meantime, the worthy doctor got
money for the stock that his brokers
had sold at so cents a share.
ALyman, whether this story was
true or not, never took the chance of
telling it in court, for the warrant
issued by Scheffels never caught up
to him. 1t seemed to be a case of the
bitter being bitten and the Sullivan
Trust company had the laugh all
around.
But, with what delight, Lyman,
wherever he may be, will read Of the
trouble of Larry Sullivan; and the
outcome of the civil suit, and of Lar
RVS arrest will be watched with IN
terest. Those stocks that he and
Rice wanted to exchange for Bullrrog
Rush are now out of their hands and
Sullivan and Rice are doing business
in Fairview.

The scandal over the Bullfrog
Rush Mining company in Goldheld
last year is still fresh in the memoir
les of the people there and here too.
1t wound up in the seizure of the Of
flee and books, the arrest OF the sec
rotary and the flights of Dr.. Lyman,
who had been promoting that and
other companies.
The l.. NJ. Sullivan Trust company
undertook the promotion of the Bull
frog Rush company for Lyman, and
Lyman claimed they were not pro-
noting it to suit him. He went to
Goldfeld and opened offices on his
own account and began the promo
ton of a Greenwater copper company
on somewhat similar lines to those
followed by the Sullivan people. He
sent out pages of advertising to the
eastern papers, g~littering with prom
ises of wealth to investors.
Lyman's story was to the effect
that he demanded an accounting
from the Sullivan Trust company,
and failed to get It. He claimed that
Graham G. Rice, who was practically
the head of the Sullivan concern,
wanted him to make a fresh contract
for the promotion of the Bullfrog
Rush which would have meant his
giving up control of the company.
This he refused to do, and while Ly-
man was basking in the sunshine of
new found prosperity, Rice threw a
bombshell into his camp, which re-
suited in breaking him up in bust
ness.
In a number of papers in which
Lyman's advertisements had been APP
pearing there appeared a reputation
of him by the Sullivan Trust com
pany. This advertisement of Sulli-
vans stated that the literature which
had been sent out by the Sullivan
Trust company was all misleading
that the promotion company hat
been imposed upon by Lyman ant
would take back all the stock thai
had been sold through its agency
giving in return stock in any of tht
Sullivan companies.

AMERICAN NICKEL
MAKES Big STRIKE

Superintendent Charles Bell of
the American Nickel company came
in from that camp Saturday, bring
ing with him specimens of the latest
strike in that mine. The samples
showed some of the finest nickel ore
yet taken from this wonderfully rich
mine and the large body of this ore
being developed, make this the most
important strike yet made on the
property.
This ore is encountered in a
crosscut which is being run from the
incline shaft at about the 400-foot
level. When Superintendent Bell
came in from the mine Saturday
they had cut twenty-five feet into
this ledge and had not yet reached
the other wall. Samples of the ore
have been sent to the Eastern Office
and a telegram was sem to New York
telling of the big strike.
At present the main tunnel Is
down over 600 feet and some repairs
are being made on the pumps tc

is being done they were prosecuting

SULLIVAN IS
PLACED UNDER ARREST
Is Held in New York in Con-
nection With a Suit Crow
ing Out ofStock Transaction

LBy Associated Press

NEW YORK, June 5-L. M. Sullivan of the L. M. Sullivan
Trust company of Goldfeld was arrested here today on a civil or
der in connection with a civil suit brought by Frank S. Cotton of
Putsburg, Pennsylvania, to recover $1O2, 900, the par value of
stock in one of the Sullivan mining companies in which Cotton
was persuaded to purchase a year ago. Sullivan was paroled and
is in the custody of counsel.
The complaint on which L. M. Sullivan was arrested today says
that the mining company in which Cotton invested was the Bull
frog Rush Mining company, now in the hands of a receiver. The
Sullivan company is alleged to have acted as it promoter. Col
ton claims he purchased $1O2, 700 shares of stock for $41115 on
the representation that the stock was worth 81 per share. Last
winter Cotton received an offer from the L. NJ. Sullivan Trust
company to redeem all Bullfrog Rush stock held by its clients by
giving in exchange other stocks in which the Sullivan company
was interested. Cotton refused to accept this offer and was in
formed that the ore values in the mine were exhausted.
