GET POSSESSION
OF ALL THEIR
CLAIMS
Series of Deeds Conveys
Large Holdings to
Douglas Ely Mines Co.

BY series of deeds recorded yes
terday the Douglas Ely Mines COM
pany secures absolute title TO their
property, located about 16 miles
southeast of Ely. The deeds, 10 in
number, show that the property pass
ed through several hands before
reaching those of the company.
The first of the instruments bears
date of December 81, 1906, and con-
veys from Samuel J. McDill to Will
lam A. Douglas for consideration of
1880, an undivided one-sixth inter-
est in the Red Head group of five
claims.
The next transfer recorded in the
transaction took place on March IA,
1907 when Charles McFadden for
consideration of $3.50, transferred to
Alfred Adams, Jr., an undivided one
sixth interest in the Red Head group
William A. Douglas transferred IA
one-twelfth interest in the Red Head
group to Alfred Adams, Jr., for $3.50.
The Carbonate group is brought to
light in the transaction when Charles
MoFadden on March IA. 1907, trans
feired to Alfred Adams. Jr.. for $3.50
his interest in II.
From this time the claims passed
through various hands until they
came to the Douglas Ely company
through transfer, by Joseph e ST.
mon, of New York, to them, for con-
sideration of 81, his holdings in vari-
Gus groups. The properties conveyed
were: Undivided one-fourth interest
in the Carbonate group, undivided
one-half interest in the Steptoe
group; undivided one-sixth interest
in the Red Head group. This deed
bears date of January Z, 1908.
While a great amount of work has
not been done on the claims con-
veyed, ii is stated, they are consid-
cred some of the best in the district
in which they lie and for that reason.
as well as because the transactions
recorded give the company full title.

WANTS A RECEIVER
APPOINTED BY
THE COURT
". II. Wade Wishes Bus
mess Affairs of Com
pany Wound Up.

Alleging that they have refused to
carry out a portion of an agreement
to dissolve partnership and dispose
of all goods on hand for benefit of the
creditors of Wade & Co. W. II. Wade
yesterday filed suit against Gus
Marks and w b. Root as trustees of
the co-partnership of Wade & Co.
The allegations are that on Sep
TENDER 81. 1907. he, Root and Marks
agreed to dissolve partnership in the
business they had been conducting
under the firm name of Wade & Co.
Root was placed in possession as
trustee. gave the necessary bond, and
proceeded as rapidly as possible to
convert all stock and obligations due
the firm into cash. The liabilities at
time dissolution of partnership was
agreed on was $14,343.63, of which
10 per cent has since been paid.
The stock of merchandise has been
reduced in value to about $4,000,
WIZ there still remains owing to
creditors of the firm $3,5S5.90. Upon
final accounting made January 10,
ltHut6ttd Wal No " hitiN iOAa
according to the agreement, which
specified that drawing of lots should
be had and the loser either buy the
share of the other or sell his own.
Both Root and Marks refuse to pro-
coed further with their agreement.
Wade alleges.
He further states that the goods
will deteriorate in value if not inn
mediately disposed of while the eX-
pense of caring for. housing and in
Surfing them, together with pay of
trustees and rent of ground will be
a large and unnecessary expense.
He therefore prays the court that
a receiver be appointed to wind up
the business affairs of the company;
hat all assets be converted to money
and the creditors paid ont of the
sum; that the interest of the defend
ant Marks be charged with two prom
issory notes, while such further re-
lief as may seem just TO the court,
together with costs of action is pray
ed for Walker & Boorman are at
torneys for the plaintiff.

instructions to city attorney to inves-
tigate public utilities companies do
ing business in Ely to see whether
they have franchises or not; resolu-
ton to take action on delinquent IL
cegses from last quarter. The city
attorney was also asked to look into
the amount due the town from the
county for liquor licenses. Several
matters of minor importance were
also taken up
The meeting was called to order
with Councilman Hall Root and
Gardiner present. Mayor Clark was
absent and Gardiner. as mayor pro

gems for the year 1907 was read and
approved.

Mr.. Boorman. who in absence OF
City Attorney Walker, acted in that
capacity, suggested lhat the proper

the time being, but was later taken
up and he was instructed to investi-
gate II and determine ;,nount due the

next regular meeting.

of the council We're read and with
a few minor changes adopted
Gardiner at this point brought up
the subject of city licenses for the
last quarter, desiring to know if any
were delinquent. In reply Clerk Old
field stated that several were in this
class. Gardiner stated that he had
had several citizens come to him and
protest against the manner in which
the licenses were collected, claiming
favoritism shown. Attorney Boor-
man stated that they had reason to
complain on this point as all were
not treated alike, at least seemingly.
The city attorney was instructed to
report on franchises held by public
utility corporations.
1t was determined that the city
marshal shall visit each place entitled
to pay license and request them to
do so. In case they do not, more Wig
orous action will be taken.
Clerk Oldfeld wished to submit a
report showing wherein he and the
mayor differed in amounts shown in
tneir annual reports. This was not
allowed, the council wishing to have
the mayor present when the report
is read.
Attorney Boorman introduced an
ordinance repeating section 6 of chap
ter l. city ordinances, dealing with
or sale of liquors to min
ors, Indians. inebriates and others.
He stated II as his intention to bring
in another ordinance more fully COW
ering these offenses. This he consid-
cred necessary from representations
recently made to him.
