CLEVELAND RANCH SALE OFF
Mormon Church Officials Forfeit
Payment and Adams & Nc
Gill Take Over Property

Salt Lake Tribune. November Is: An
extensive colonization scheme. which
was fostered by the Mormon Church.
and which was designed to take over
one Of the richest stock ranches in Ne
vada, has fallen through. and the prop
erty. together with the initial payment
of $4,000. which was made to the own
ers, has been forfeited. The property
in question is the famous Cleveland
ranch. settled and owned by the late
A. Q. Cleveland. in Spring Valley,
White Pine County, not far from the
Utah-Nevada State line.
Thomas Judd of St. George carried
out the preliminary steps looking to the
requirement of the property several
months ago.. 1t was stated at that
time that the little cotsrie of men asso-
ciated with MI. Judd we're getting on
behalf of the governing boz, of the
Mormon Church, and that the property
would be set out as q TOWNSHIP, and that
q colony would be established. From
this bentral base it was planned. accord
ing to reports that were current at that
time, that the faithful members Of the
Church who were to be set apart as COL
onist, would conduct a vigorous propa.
ganda on behalf of the religio.political
organization which they represented.
The ranch is considered one OF the
finest in the State for the raising OF
cattle. 1t has an area Of $4,000 acres.
all under fence, with an immense stock
range adjacent, where the finest pas
turage In the West may be had the year
around. The ranch is stocked with
1900 head Of thoroughbred cattle. and
thousands Of range cattle were it's prop.
erty, ranging the nearby territory.
Price Fixed at 500, 600
The price fixed on the property by the
Cleveland estate was $780, 00. The me-
gotiations carried on by Mr.. Judd on
behalf of his associates, covered a period
| of several months. The ranch and the
surrounding country were examined by
stock experts and agricultural experts
said to represent the Church, though
representing themselves to be the agents
Of Mr.. Judd. Terms were finally
reached, by which it was agreed that q
cash payment Of $4,000 was to be
made, the deeds placed in escrow. and
other payments be made at stated peri
DDS. All went merrily until the date fol
the second payment rolled around. The
money was not forthcoming. and the
deal was Immediately declared of, and
the first payment was declared forfeited
Further efforts have not been made by
Mr.. Judd and his associates to secure
the property.
Announcement was made Saturday
that the last hope of the Mormons tc
gain possession of the property had gone
glimmering. as McGill x Adams, com
prising n of the biggest and stronges
stock firms in Nevada, had purchased
the property outright. John Short
formerly of Elko County. Nevada. wit
is the confidential man for the McGil
& Adams interests. has assumed the pc
sition of superintendent Of the property
d~isplacing the Mormon superintendent
who had formerly been in charge.

AFTER RICE AND NAT GOODWIN
Expose in Mining Journal Breaks Down
Ely Central Copper


Nat Goodwin and his partner, Jacob
Herzog. alias George Graham Rice. who
is "No. 40lS" on the Elmira reforma-
tory records and B-15l6 at Sing Sing.
are arraigned in q recent issue Of the
Mining and Engineering Journal for
their methods in Wall street. Accord
ing to the Mining Journal, Rice u
his associates obtained options upon an
enormous number of shares of the Ely
Central Copper Company, believed to be
more than $50, 900. at or about 90 cents
a share, and are selling to the public at
a greatly enhanced price by an expen-
sive advertising campaign. The quo
tation at the time of the expose was "a
a share, and the stock broke to IS cents.
The Mining Journal declares that the
property is practically worthless. They
owned the Nevada Mining News pub
lished at Reno, but removed the paper
to New York a few months ago.
While moi defending the methods of
Rice and Goodwin, the Ely papers re.
flute the statement Of the Journal that
the Ely Central property is practically
worthless; claim the company's mines
are in the heart of the copper belt, and
that the showing made by the Journal
was to bear the stock SO that il could be
bought in by the Guggeuheim interests.
