SUE TO RECOVER
VALUE OF ORE
0'Meara Syndicate Takes Le-
gal Steps to Head Off Me-
vada Claim Jumpers.
ORE SHIPPED TO SALT LAKE
FROM PROPERTIES BOUGHT BY
PLAINTIFFS YEARS AGO.

The O'Mesra syndicate began an ac-
ton against the American Smelling &
Refining company yesterday to recover
the value of d carload of lead ore that
was recently consigned to the smelling
company from their Mcnamara lead
mines i'm the Palmetto district, about
fourteen miles from Blair. New. The ore
carries about 50 per cent lead and 20
ounces silver per ton and the value of
the consignment is about 1880
The suit IS friendly one. as it is not
the fault of the American company that
the O'Mearas are kept out of their mon
ey. The ore was not shipped by the
% Mearas, but by parties at Blair VINO
have been relocating the mines from
which It came When it was found that
the ore had been shipped, the O'Mearas,
through their attorneys here. served no
tice on the smelling company that the
ore belonged to them and warned them
not to make settlement with the shippers
until title and ownership had been es-
tablished The action which was started
yesterday will make it obligatory on
the shippers to get to the front and
establish their right to the ore or lose 1t.
w p O'Mears explained yesterday that
the property was an old one that was
purchased from the Mcnamara estate last
year. There are thousands of tons of
ore on the dumps and exposed in the
mines. but the new owners had done
nothing more than the necessary assess
ment work on the property since its ac-
qulrement Parties at Blair recently
Jumped in and filed on the claims and
then proceeded to ship ore from the
ground. Their first consignment has
been tied up. as stated, and Mr.. O'Meara
is not at all alarmed over the outcome;
but to keep the money from going to
the shippers action had to be brought
against the smelling company.

Mines and Mining Stocks
SILVER -VALCALDA
MILL DOWN TO WORK

After week or two of a try-out the
new milling plant at the Silver Peak
Valcalda cOmpany's property. at Blair.
New, is now in regular commission. and
w p, O'Meara, who with his brother. +M
J. O'Meara, owns practically all of the
companys stock states that everything
is in shape for the grinding out of gold
bullion in generous quantity.
The development of the mine and the
building of the mill, putting in the water
works with which to supply il and all the
other details of management have been
looked after by NJ. J. O'Meara, who has
months of the summer to keep things
hurrying along.
1T is not going to be possible to keep
the plant running with three shifts for
some little time to come said W. P.
O'Meara yesterday, because the electric
company from which we derive the power
to run 1t is not yet in shape to fully meet
the demands that have been madef1Ipon it
for electric current. 1t is getting into
shape as rapidly as possible however. and
when it IS ready the mill will be run dur
ing the fun twenty-fOur hours of each
day. In the mine a tremendous amount
of development work has been performed
and the blocking out of high-grade mill
ing gold ore goes merrily on. For over
400 feet the main tunnel workings have
been sent through the ore body and the
face is still being pushed ahead in rock
that is now averaging $50 per ton. Cross
cuts and other forms of development
SHOW this ore body to be all of sixty feet
wide and the probabilities are, and we be
ieFe, that the Valcalda will prove to be
ABOUT the biggest gold mine in Nevada. E"
About 20 per cent of the values in the
ore are beng recovered on the plates
while the rest is recovered by teaching
the trial runs having showed that the
talllngS contain only fractional values
The company has developed a world of
water for all purposes. and from now on
the proposition is going to be made to add
largely to the O'Meara fortunes.

This location was made some five or
SIX weeks ago, but the ma tier was kept
very quiet and not until the last week
dld the discovery become publicly known
Since that time many Piochers have got
ten busy and have succeeded in making
some very desirable locations Among
the most fortunate are Assessor John
Koeder George o. Sawyer and Matthew
Hunter. Others who went to the scene
claim that a better showing exists in
the wash than in Datch Flat where the

NEVAOA-UTAH IN SHAPE
ORE FROM FORTUNA

Active work in the No. 1 shaft owned
by the Nevada-Utah company was COM
menced this week, says the Phoebe Rec
ord. Extensive repairs on the old ma
chinery and the installation of new has
been going on for some time. Everything
is now in tip top shape and will permit
of extensive working for some time to
come. This company has been operating
quietly for some time without any great
buster, but at the time the railroad is
completed will be in a condition to keep
IT hustling to take care of her tonnage.
Joseph Vietti, one of the leasers of the
Fortuna property in the Bristol district
was in town Sunday after supplies. He
SAYS the development work on the For
tuna is proving that there is an immense
mine there. They have already for ship
ment one carload of copper ore and one
carload of rich silver ore. Joe is working
hard to make the proper showing on their
lease and ali indications point TO great
financial success
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-09-19

the company will have better chance to
make a good cleanup of the ore now
broken in the mine and sacked awaiting
a chance to load"
Tomorrow the cOmpany's dividend of
$4,000, or 10c a share, will be disbursed,
and If shareholders could once see the
character of ore that is now coming from
the deepest workings of the property they
would not bother their heads about where
the money is coming from with which to
pay dividends in the future. Another
thing about the Nevada Hills that must
appeal to the stockholders is the fact that
the values consist almost exclusively of
gold and silver, the one with an I'M
changeable market price and the other
commanding a good figure right along
and without anything to suggest a de-
cline in ii.
The committee of directors that has
been named to look after the railroad
building proposition are getting things
moving and early in the coming month
a corps of surveyors will be in the field
laying out the line.

Uncle Sam and May Day the Only
Stocks to Hold Even.

Practically all stocks continued to slide
down the scale yesterday. Uncle sam

RED TOP is MAKING
AN ENVIABLE NAME

GoIdfield, Sept 16-Recent develop
ments in the Red Top mine Of the Con-
sOlidated group easily stamps the prop
erty as one of the great mines of the
state and the opinion is expressed by
mining men that the Red Top will
eventually prove the biggest mine of the
Consolidated holdings. although it has
but one claim. A body of sulphide ore
was encountered in sinking the big three
compartment shaft, evidently an offshoot
from the main ledge, which contains
some of the richest ore ever mined in
the camp. Although a sulphide, the ore
carries the metal in its native state as
well, and nearly all of the vein filling
pans. The shaft passed through thirty
five feet of ore of a shipping grade, on
the dip of the vein. and assays from
places across the shaft, gave returns of
612 ounces, IS ounces and 119 ounces, the
latter coming from the north end. The
ore was encountered at a depth Of 300
feet and carload brought the company
SIG a ton. On the 260 level. above which
the ore shoot apexes, the vein is twenty
five feet wide and averages SO a ton.
The new vein is separated from the
main ledge by siXty-five feet of ande-
site and viii be cut again on the 36O
foot level within ten days. The main
vein has been cross-cut for a distance
of 10 feet on the 260-fOOt level with
no hanging wall yet in sight. The en-
tire mass is Of a milling grade. and
twenty-five feet averages S42 a ton. Hugh

New District Looks Good.
a new mineral district, ten miles south
west of me old camp of Silver Peak
which is tWenty-siX miles west of Gold
field, is attracting the attention of To-
cal mining men. Harry Stimler, who
made the first discovery I'm Goldfield
district, the Sandstone, has purchased
eleven claims there and has started men
to sacking ore. The values are in silver
and gold, and the ore which is being
broken on the surface averages 800 a
ton The lodges are said to be immense
and heavily enriched throughout.
