For several months rumors have been
afloat regarding the Vider tunnel and
at intervals, papers have had reference
to the internal conditions and dissen-
sion regarding the management.
Whatever may have been the grounds
for such statements, it seems now
that there was something that was wi
dening the breach. The Vidler tunnel
was sold this week at bankrupt sale
for f48, 900 or small per cent of what
has been invested in the tunnel and the
property, The sale was made in the
United States Court of Bankruptcy by
F. ]. Spencer, referee. There was
but one bidder, George L. Nye, trustee
for an English syndicate. He gives it
out that the syndicate will finish the
tunnel and that it will cost to do SO up
wards of $3.50. 900. Mr. Nye further says
that the Londoner had not been caught
for large sums and that the Vidler pro-
iects were legitimate so far as
his clients were concerned. There is
scarcely question but that Mr.. Wider
mas Ildu Ills utdEt duO Soul III tLio WIN
and his numerous friends in
this county would have been gratified
if conditions had been such SO that
he could have completed this mopu-
ment to his perseverance, sacrifices
and ability.
One of the richest gold strikes that
has been reported occurded in the War
Dance shaft last Friday when two
inch streak was encountered that
assayed $1O,0 per ton. Some as
says were taken that run from $50, 900
to SIS, 600 per ton The claim was first
! located some thirty years ago and its
, patent number is 585. A shaft was
sunk to depth of 140 feet at irregu-
lar intervals but nothing has been done
on the property for the past fifteen
years and it could have been bought
for song. Recently six parties from
Central City took a lease and bond on
it for three years. After going down
to the depth of $50 feet they struck
this rich vein. They at once took out
sixteen tons and got check for the
same amounting in round numbers to
Sl3, 900 The claim is located between
Russell and Willis gulches and east
Of the Saratoga. tits owned by Pitts
burg people, and Ed. Davis,
cashier OF the Rocky Mountain Nation
al Bank is agent. The lease was Sc
cured at nominal amount as it was
thought that very little would come
OF the property. As development pro-
ceeds the conditions grow better and the
strike has caused rush of miners,
engineers and prospectors to Russell
Gulch. A general average of assays
below the very rich streaks shows val
ues running forty ounces Of gold and
nineteen ounces of silver per ton.
there are many claims near by that
nave been neglected for years and
which will no doubt be the scene of
unparalleled activity a. the excitement
over the War Dance richness will re-
suit in such claims being vigorously
worked, while any ground within q
reasonable distance may be taken up.
