emit. AS soon as a a shows up who

Ed Weidman, the discoverer OF the
large copper vein at that place, and Joe
Sabron of Currant Greek who is inter
ested with him. are there to meet the
first named parties, aud the intention is
to merge their interests and form a
group of about 10 claims. They will
then sink a shaft to a depth of about 500
feet, and hope to open up the large body
of high grade copper which they feel
certain from surface indications will be
found there. All of this ground carries
good values in gold, and by thus making
a joint effort the parties believe they

DAVIES SELLS GROUP OF MINES
After Five Years Litigation 1t Is
Thought Parties Fighting
Case Are Purchasers

Daniel Davies Of Eureka this week
disposed Of his interest in II mining
claims situated near Mineral Hill, this
county. about 40 miles north of Eureka,
to Robert L. Benson of Chicago. The
consideration is 5000. the first payment
Of $4,000 having already been paid, and
the remaining $4,000 is secured by q
promissory note held by the Eureka
County Bank in escrow and payable on
or before the expiration Of nine months.
The property that has Just been sold
was owned by the Whslen Consolidated
Mining Company previous to January
|. 1905. On December 20, 1904, Daniel
Davies secured a judgment in the
District Court Of this county for the
sum Of s1792. n for labor performed OIL
the property. The following day an
execution was levied ON the property,
and In the succeeding February the
property was bought in by Davies t
satisfy the judgment against it. He
claimed the right TO possession of the
property under this title.
On the day the Judgment was levied
Sydney /. WALES arrived in Nevada and
proceeded directly from PAlisade I o AL
pha by special train provided by certain
stockholders Of the mining company,
Manager Lay being the most prominent
one. The next day WALES proceeded to
the mines and jumped them. claiming
that the Whalen Company had not per.
formed the required annual work for
the year 1904.
The case was then taken to the United
States Court at Carson. and in Decem.
Der, 1907. a decision was handed down
in favor Of the defendant, Daniel
Davies. An appeal was taken by the
plaintiff to the United States Court o.
Appeals. and the opinion of the lower
u vas sustained. 1t will be noted
that Mr.. Davies was successful in the
three several hearings of the case.
1t. was established in the evidence
that Lay got Wales to come to Alpha
for the purpose of jumping the claims;
further, that Lay was supposed to have
done the required assessment work for
the year 1904 ON the property. but he
failed to do it on eight of the IL claims
His act in getting WALES to come to
Alpha and jump the property clearly
established evidence of q conspiracy Cd
the part of certain stockholders OF the
company to defraud the persons who
had brought proceedings against the
company to enforce the payment Of
just debts. As a consequence the couri
held that the title of the defendant.
Davies. was good. as the title WALES
secured was through fraud and a con-
spiracy of which il he did not have a
knowledge he should have had. and the
law recognized he must have.
After five years Of litigation aud the
expenses incident thereto in the differ
ent courts. it is thought that Mr.. Ben.
son. who negotiated the sale of the
property. secured it for the same par
ties that have been contesting the case
during that period Of time. ALI Chartz
Of Carson was attorney for the defend
ant.
Mr.. Davies says the credit for the
dnal transfer Of the property is largely
due to George w. Leighton.

EGYPTIAN COTTON
PROVING SUCCESS
Associated Press.

Boston, April 17.-That Egyptian
cotton can be successfully grown in
the southwestern portion of the United
States is the statement of experts
in attendance at the convention
of the National Association of Cotton
Manufacturers, in session here today.
For many years attempts have been
made to introduce Egyptitn cotton in
to this country, but the climate Of the
South Atlantaic and Gulf states was
found unsuitable for its culture. Re
cent trials in New Mexico and Arr
IONA have been highly successful and
it is likely that the industry will be-
come firmly established in those ter
ritories.
