HORTON SAYS EAST

Judge Horton, a noted jurist of Chi
cago, is spending a few days in the

view to other investments.
When see at the Hotel Goldfeld this
week by a News representative the
judge said: !
II have spent a week here and have
thoroughly inspected the surface of the
district with my own eyes, but have
been compelled, on account of my age
to view, the underground workings
through the vision of capable and
trustworthy experts.
I'm summing up the situation
would say that the Goldfeld district
has not begun to be worked. It is a
vast proposition and the innumerable
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1908-04-18

pany intends to seek an extension of
time through the court, on the ground
that it had been seriously interfered
with in working the least by the Flor
nee company.
In the matter of the $4,000 paid
the Florence company, it is said that
at the time this was paid under protest
and at no time was the justice of the
penalty admitted; that the ground
from which the ore was taken was
worked with the full knowledge and
cooperation of the Florence company
as the Florence company wanted the
block of ground explored. But when
rich ore was opened up, and extracted,
the Florence company came on the
leasing company, demanding the full
amount of the ore extracted and re-
fusing to allow for even the cost Of the
work. The leasing company has to
acquiese at the time, it is said, as It
was at that time in no position to ~
sist, all it's money being tied up by the
Florence, and no money on hand to
continue the working of the lease,
which would thereby be forfeited.
The Little Florence claims that the
Florence is Withholding over $2OO,O@
Of money due from recent shipments;
that the company had intened to pav
a dividend On the 18th and that checks
had been made out, but now the dlvf
dend will have to wait upon the re-
suits of this trouble, and therefore TIE
leasing company is being damaged.
This is a very interesting case and
will be watched closely by the whols
district. John Macbeth, Denver attor
ney for Vice President Parker has ar
rived to assist in the case. Detch, 'af'
ney & Stevens represent the Little
Florence.

FLORENCE SUED
BY PARENT COMPANY

Trouble has again broken out be-
company and the Little Florence Min
ing and Leasing company, operating
ground owned by the former company.
Late last Saturday afternoon, the
Florence company fled a bill asking an
order restraining the Little-F Florence
company from further operating its
l%easehold, and further asking for $780,
900 damages. The ground of complaint
set forth was that the Little-F Florence
vas working the ground in an un-
workmanlike manner, and that it was
extracting ore belonging to the plain
tiff company.
The parties to the suit appeared at
Q o'clock that night. The defendant
resisted a hearing at that time on the
ground hat the notice was contrary to
practice, and no time was given to pre-
pare an answer. The court sustained
the prayer of the defendant.
Monday morning the Little-T Florence
exploded a bomb-shell, in filing a bill
asking for 81, 100000, which included
money withheld from Little Florence
ore shipments, also money formerly ex-
acted from the leasing company to the
amount of $l77, 900, as penalty for ex-
tracing ore outside its sidelines, as
represented by Manager Lockhart.
The Florence company endeavored to
withdraw its complaint asking for an
injunction, but the Little Florence re-
sisted and it was not allowed. The at
torneys for the Florence then withdrew
from the court room and the matter re-
mains in statu quo.
In the meantime the Little Florence
continues to work the lease, which is
said to expire IN the 26th Of this
month. But it is understood the com

1.EAsERs JADE THE CAMP

Leasing has made Goldfeld, and leas'
ing is relied upon to make other sue
cessful camps in the state. More in.
dividual enterprises and more capital
have been induced to participate in
mining in the new gold camps through
the successes achieved by leasers than
through any other influence. The early
leasers on the Jumbo and Sandstone,
and in later days, the Mohawk and
Florence leasers, have been the most
potent factors in demonstrating the
mineral wealth of the Goldfeld district
and stimulating mining enterprise in
this section.
