DISCUSSES WALLS SUIT.
Colonel is Noted for Court Contests,
Says News Bureau.

After quoting the statement of c..
NJ MaCNeil, president of the Utah
Copper company. that not an ounce or
ore has been taken by his company
from the limits of Colonel Wallis claim
in Bingham. the Boston News Bureau
saws:
colonel T. A Wall is one of the
pioneer mining men of Utah, a man
of great wealth and noted for his many
contests I'm the courts in that state. It
was Colonel Wall who I'D up mining
territory owned by the United States
Mining company in Bingham worth
$4,000 900 for four years.
"Mr. Wall was one of the earliest
and largest owners of Utah Copper
stock. In the early development, when
AGessrs. Jackling and MacNeill, general
mana ger and president, respectively of
the company, were testing methods of
concentration, previous to the build
ing of the large Utah Copper mill, they
came into conflict with Colonel Wall.
who was at the time operating a small
concentration i'm Bingham upon rather
novel lines. and as a result of the
differences of opinion. Colonel Vail be-
gan a strenuous attack upon the Utah
Copper company and its mana cement,
although at the time he was about the
largest individual stakeholder.
"He sold his shock under $50 a
share, but has never lost an OppOr-
tunity since 90 attack the company.
ut is understood that Colonel Wall
at the present time is a very large
stakeholder in the Boston Consolidated
company"

COLORADO REPORTS
EXCITE CURIOSITY
Rich Ore in South End for
Some Reason Is Left
Untouched.

One Of the reports in circulation in re-
gard to the Colorado mine is that for
some unknown reason the 600 feet of viT-
gin ground from the south face of the
Colorado workings to the Sioux line is be-
ing left ntOuched-althOugh the face
shows as rich ore as has ever been taken
from the mine One of the men who has
a prominent position in the mine is said
to have asked the manager recently;
why not continue the south drift?
when the answer was: We're not ready
yet"
Taking this in connection with the ap
parently authoritative talk of dividends
being suspended for several months, after
the December payment, many are Won
dering why. That deal or deals for
taking over control of the company msy
have been revived is the only answer
ventured.
That rich ora remains in the south end
of the property. where no work is being
done is attested to by a prominent mir
ing man who visited the mine a few days
ago. He was shown a good face Of very
rich ore and. just to satisfy his curiosity,
he took grab sample not of the show
stuff but of the ordinary looking ore
He had the sample assayed and to his
surprise received returns Of 900 ounces
silver. 50 per cent lead and 81 in gold
In taking the grab sample he might Of
course, have just happened to STRIFE q
rich spot.
But there are many who believe the
Colorado will bear watching.
