CHARGES FRAUD BY
DIRECTORS OF MINE
A. B. Buckner Accuses Parlin
Board With Cheating Him
Out of Sz2,5OO
False Statements in Prospectus
and Conspiracy Are Ale
legged by Stock Buyer

A B. Buckner complains that he is
the victim of fraud and conspiracy on
the part of the directors of the Parlin
mining company. In an action for an
accounting begun by him in the su-
perior court yesterday. the alleged con-
spIrators and other stock holders named
are W. w. Parlin, A. L. Harlow, r. j..
White, J. T.. Conde, III. c. Cutting, W. A.
sage and j. Goodwin Thompson.
Reiylng upon a prospectus which
stated that the mines OF the company
In Tuolumne county had ore in sight
worth $450,000, Buckner says he was
deiuded into buying 10000 shares for
S22,o00. Although the Parlin mining
company was capitalized at 1000, 900,
Buckner asserts that the mines, known
as the Ophir, the Yellow Jacket and
the Gold Luck, were never worth more
than $4,000, and he adds that they are
barren of gold in paying quantities.
MANY ILLEGAL ACTS CHARGED
The directors are accused of many IL
legal acts designed to enrich them
selves, A. L. Harlow being manager and
w. w. Pariin having the controlling in
terest. When the Parlin mining COM
pany was formed in August of last
year to take over the mines from the
Parlin gold mining company, its pre-
ueceSsof, the directors, Buckner says,
issued 100000 shares to themselves at
3 cents a share. Harlow was en-
powered to sell 500, 900 shares to out
siders at 25 cents q snare, retaining 80
per cent of the proceeds for his serv-
ices. On a mere transfer of 29O, 900
shares between the two companies, the
Parlin mining company was untruth-
fully credited with $62,500, it is as
serted, and Harlow pocketed s1S,750 as
his commission for making the trans
fer. Harlow is also accused of having
violated his trust by selling his own 8
cent shares for 25 cents a share. and
of having paid himself $3.50 a month
when his salary was fixed at 500.
TRANSFER is ATTACKED
Buckner also alleges that the COM
pany executed to w w ParIin two
promissory notes for s17.5o0 and $4,000.
when no money was Que Parlin, and
then conveyed to Parlin the mines.
taking as payment the promissory
notes.
Buckner asks that the notes be can
celed that the mines be decreed the
property of the Parlin mining company:
that Parlin and Harlow be ordered to
return to the treasury all the money
they are alleged to have wrongfully
distracted, and that an accounting be
taken.
