M|ssouu COPPER ON LEDGE

A terrific flow Of water has
been encountered in the diamond
drill hole recently made in the
Missoula Copper company's prop
erty in the Mullan section. The
water is said to shoot out for
over 20 feet and with great force.
The hole was pointed in a north
westerly direction and driven
about 500 feet.
Recently it was reported that
some copper had been encoun-
tered and men working at the
property state that a ledge of IA
feet in width has been opened up.
The company is now engaged
in the cutting Of a station to
make room for the pulling out Of
drills. 1t is the intention to bore
another hole in a northeasterly
direction, proving the vein for
over 1000 feet.

1ML|NGs. SUIT NOW SETTLED

The last act has been COM
pleted in connection with the
great tailings suit against prac-
tically all Of the big mine Of this
district by Timothy Mccarthy,
Elmer Doty and William Raney.
1t was learned in Wallace this
week that the United States SUI
preme Court had denied the APP
Iplication for a writ Of certiorari
and has ordered the case dis
missed.
The application for the writ
was from the circuit court of APP
peals at San Francisco which had
decided against the plaintiffs.
An attempt was made to have
the supreme court review the
proceedings and this was denied,
finally disposing Of the case in
the highest court in the land.
The application for injunction
against the mining companies
involving the Bunker Hill & Sui
Ivan mine, the Federal proper
ties, the Hecla and Larson &
Greenough properties, was based
on the claim that the river was
poisoned by lead from the mines
and destroyed the fertility Of the
land as well as causing death to
cattle.

joining the Great Western mine
