BULL VALLEY STRIKES

George, in Washington county, Frank 2.
Hit verifies the news published in this
department earlier in the week to the eff
feet that gold discoveries had been made
in the Bull Valley region that promised
to create a sensation. Mr.. Hills letter
IS dated on Tuesday last and he says
that several big strikes were made during
the ten days previous. Some of these
discoveries, he states, are showing up
ore worth from 5000 to $1,000 per ton in
gold, while the surface showings every
where are most promising.
The new gold fields are located in up
per Bull Valley about f0rty-five miles
north of ST. George, and when the letter
was written the fifty or more miners and
prospectors who had then gotten into
the camp were preparing to organize the
Bull Valley mining district. The discover
les are said to have been made in a con-
tact between quartZite andi pOrphyry, the

RUM0R HAS TINTIC MINES
GOING TO JESSE KNIGHT

According to reports that are being cir
culated on brokers row." Uncle Jesse
Knight must be preparing to buy all the
mines in Tintic and then carry the war
into other camps. Two or three days ago
it was said that he had made a bid for
control of the Lower Mammoth. Yesterday
he was reported to be loading up on Sioux
Consolidated, Victor Consolidated and
Carisa. In addition to that he is supposed
to be after the South Swansea
1t is to be hoped that the reports Will
all prove true, but the chances are ali
against it. as far as some of the properties
mentioned are concerned, at least. Uncle
Jesse has captured a number of Tintic
properties during the past twelve months.
but, so far as known. he has not secured
any of them by buying up the stock in
the open market. The records of his deals
show that his trades always involved the
control of a proposition. and that, with
out mincing matters, his trades were
quickly consummated or called off 1t is
nothing against any of the properties to
say that the probabilities are that Uncle
Jesse has not undertaken the purchase of
any of them. But, if he has. il is dead
sure that they will become live ones'' be-
fore long. The Sioux Consolidated is be-
ing developed all the time, as it is, and
the latest reports indicate that the ground
is showing improvement, though no
strike is yet claimed to have been made
in the ground.
