Graham Rice to cheat, wrong, and
defraud plaintiff of his 5000 shares

G. |. Burt, who with ]. H. Eaton,
has townsite at Bob, and is also
managing the Lodi Mining company
properties there, came up from that
district Sunday and yesterday filed
the plat of the townsite with the aud
itor, the county commissioners hav-
ing accepted it. The town of Bob is
in Nye county and is situated in the
Lodi district about forty-two miles
northeast of Luning. The company
is building a smelter, the construc-
ton of which is being rapidly rush
ed and it is expected to be completed
inside of sixty days. All the material
has to be hauled from Luning and
they have a number Of huge traction
engines engaged in the work. The
engines are also used in hauling the
high-grade ore to the railway. The
smelter will have a capacity of 100
tons daily and it is estimated that
there is enough ore that will average
$50 ton to keep it in operation for
number of years. They have only
been shipping ore that averages 500
to the ton on account of the distance
it has to be hauled to the railroad.
In speaking of the camp yesterday
Mr.. Burt said:
I'VE now have about eighty meT
employed working on the construc
ton of the smelter and in the mine:
and in a short time this force will BIZ
doubled. There is an inexhaustiblt
supply of water four miles from th'
camp and we have completed a pipt
line direct to the mine, which sup
plies us with all the water that il
needed.
ION the property we have tire
excellent veins which lie parable
with each other and can all be work
ed from the same shaft. The forma
ton is of lime and is oxidized il
character. The main shaft is nov
down 700 feet and it is the opinion
of mining experts that a contact vii
be reached with greater depth. Their
is now on the dump about 1000 ton
of ore that will average $50 tor
and this will be sent through tn
, smelter as soon as completed

WOULD DISSOLVE
? N. c. GOODWIN CO.
Warren Miller Files Suit to Dissolve the
Nat c. Goodwin Brokerage Company
and Wants Receiver Appointed.

RENO, Dec. Suit to dissolve
the Nat G. Goodwin Brokerage com
pany was brought yesterday by War
rem Miller, formerly vice-president of
the corporation, who also asks $780,
900 damages and further prays the
court for the appointment of re-
ceiver.
The complaint was filed at 3
o'clock Saturday afternoon by Lor-
rim Andrews, Miller's attorney. The
lawyer made the following state
ment to the Journal for his client:
THE action has been brought be-
cause Mr.. Miller considers himself to
have Jared but i'll with Goodwin and
George G.. Rice. After practically
starting the company, putting his
money therein and working for the
interests and for the completion of
the deal which gave the company the
control of the Rawhide Coalition, he
has been kept in ignorance of the
true situation and was persuaded to
dispose of his holdings for a mere
pittance, holdings which are made up
in part of Rawhide Coalition, which
he regards as most valuable"
The plaintiff AYERS that ION OF
about the 18th day of September
1908, he was the owner of 5000
shares of the capital stock of the MAI
c. Goodwin and company, incorpor
ated,' and that Goodwin and Rice
also owned 5000 shares apiece. Mil
Ter then states that by virtue of al
option obtained by the company OF
100000 shares of Rawhide Coali
ton at Is cents per share, his 500
shares in the Goodwin company wer,
worth not less than $500, 900.

SO irresistible that at every line the

NEW CAMP OF
BOB A SCENE
OF ACTIVITY

the only heavy expense will be the
hauling of coke from the railroad,
which will cost about $50 ton. Con-
sidering the distance from the road
this is not high price for the coke
as we have our own teams and trans
portation facilities, which reduces
the hauling cost to minimum.
There are eight cars of lumber at
Luning which will be hauled to the
camp for the townsite and with the
number of lots spoken for there will
be quite town before long. 1t is
my opinion that when the smelter is
completed there will be fifty houses
built in addition to the company
buildings"
Mr.. Burt left yesterday for Gold
field and will return from that city t.
Bob this morning.

the Conduit Road near Washington,

ly, and he carries with him wonder
ful collection of photographs taken
during the progress Of those tests, by
lightning-like cameras. These pic
lures will be submitted to the Con-
gress assembled, being but the contri-
button of one savant, for it is not as
sumed that America alone has solved
this problem. The greater question
that will arise will be how to over
come the effect of automobile traffic
on hard roads without in any way re-
stricting the automobile or preventing
its development. Two solutions there
are to that question: one, to find a
material of which roads may be made
which creates no dust, or secondly, to
so treat the roads already constructed
that the dust will be retained upon
them. That, Of course, is now being
done in many parts of the counry by
spraying with calcium chloride and
through the use of various bituminous
preparations. Director Page and his
associates will have much interesting
to contribute along those
lines, for many miles Of Americas
