LlTlGATED MINES
REACH AGREEMENT

Litigation between the Round Noun
tain Mining company and the Round
Mountain Red Top and the Sphinx
properties, at Round Mountain, New,
involving the alleged extraction of ore
by the former company from ground
belonging to the latter company, has
been fully settled
The terms are not known, but it is
apparent the settlement is agreeable to
all persons involved, and that no fur
ther difficulty will be experienced by
the original company in the mining of
ground previously developed by it.
The Red Top is credited with receiv-
ing $4,000 shares of Round Mountain,
equal at market quotations to $4,000,
for 100000 shares of its stock.
When the original suit was instituted
the plaintiff secured an order from the
district court ordering an underground
survey of the Sunnyside claim of the
property of the Red Top Mining compa-
ny, which resulted in a report being
filed by Engineer John ByIer
Following this survey the settlement
was reached. Whether it was made
upon the basis Of the amount of ore
claimed to have been extracted from
the ground of the plaintiff company, or
otherwise, is another matter, but the
fact that the settlement has taken place
is a thing assured.

GOLDFIELD, Jan. IA. c. Eisen

Of the work of the company depended

GOLD DREDGER SINKS
IN COLORADO RIVER;
PLACER SCHEME FAILS

The large and costly dredger of the
Colorado River Dredging company now
rests on the bottom of that turbulent
stream below Eldorado canyon. Having
failed in its mission, the monster barge
seems TO have solved the problem con-
fronting the unfortunate stockholders of
what to do with the white elephant"
by committing suicide.
Record low water grounded the stern
of the anchored barge on a bar, and
when the river rose 12 feet last Sunday
in about twenty hours IT was unable to
right itself and was sunk by the tall
sand waves. The dredger is reported to
be aground in eight feet of water, but
when raised it win probably be found
that of this eight feet at least half is
sand, which means greater damage to
the expensive machinery.
The dredger represents an expenditure
of S185 900. In operation 1t proved
failure, and was at the time of the ac-
cident in the charge of a lone watch
man,

SUBLEASE ON DAISY
GROUND Is ACQUIRED

II. A. Morrison and associates of
Goldfield have taken a sub-lease from
the Golden Daisy Leasing company on
the Daisy and will continue the devel
opment of the ground that has been
operated for several months by the
Golden Daisy company, under the man
agemeut of Mr.. Morrison,
The lease produced considerable
money during the past summer and
fall, but it recently became necessary
to extend the development work for
opening more ground, and some of the
members of the company were unfaV
orable to making the expenditure on
company account, so Mr. Morrison and
two others who had confidence in the
ground decided to undertake the work
under a suitcase.
This is one of the most promising
blocks on the Daisy, and there is every
likelihood that good ore will again be
encountered in the near future.

Worst Blowout in History of Field Oc=
ours when Drill Enters Gas
Pocket in coaIinga Unity
Well No. Two

one of the worst blowouts in the
history of the Coalinga field occurred
Sunday night in Coalnga Unity Well
No. ,. causing an ignition of gas which
set fire to and totally destroyed the
derrick, according to advices from Coal
inga yesterday.
Jim Shreves was in charge of opera
tions at the time of the blowout. He
had shut off the water, and in breaking
through the shell under this point ran
into a gas pocket. The release of the
gas blew the entire string of tools from
the hole. snapped the one-inch cable,
causing the tools to shoot over the top
of the derrick and upon alighting to
stick straight up in the ground.
When the blowout occurred ShreVes
contrived to extinguish the forge fire
then burning in the derrick, but was too
late in his. efforts to put out the
torches.
The gas ignited from the torches and
burned down the derrick. 1t has been
impossible to subdue the gas flames.
one observer says: "A steady stream
of gas has been burning ever since the
explosion" Some idea Of the tremen-
dous gas pressure underlying the field
is seen in the character of this acci-
dent.
Consolidated Makes Hole
The Consolidated Oil company at
Coainga is again making hole, having
reached a depth of 1905 feet with SA
inch casing. Comparing conditions at
this well to those of the Commercial

dated has yet to drill 100 feet to get a
complete well.
The Coalinga Aladdin we'll has
reached a depth of 2545 feet. Work
is reported to be progressing slowly
but the management believes the pipe
viii be landed at eighty feet additional
depth, or at a total depth of 1928 feet
The New York Coalinga is again de-
livering oil to the pipe line, having
finished the installation Of the big pump
yesterday. Work Is now being done

ASKS FOR ORDINANCE TO
FIX WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
City Sealer Says that Pedders Are
Defrauding Their
Customers

Two recommendations of the city
sealer of weights and measures, which
he presented to the council yesterday,
will require the consideration of the
legislative committee, to which they
were referred.
One of these recommendations was
made by City Sealer Green to the for
mer council, but not approved. That
is for the establishment of a central
weighing station, in charge of city
weighmaster, where all large purchases
made by the city, such as hay, grain,
coal and other things that are bought
by tons, can be weighed.
The other recommendation is that an
ordinance be passed fixing a standard
weight and measure for fruit, Vegeta
bes and other produce sold in sacks or
boxes. Mr.. Green reported to the
council yesterday that many peddlers
defraud the consumers by offering
fruits and vegetables in small sacks
and boxes, and representing them to be
of standard weight.

CROSSCUT NEARS
CRACKER JACK LEDGE

GOLDFIELD, Jan. 11.-Mitcheu &
Fairfield are still driving the crosscut
from the bottom of their shaft on the
Cracker Jack, at the eastern base Of
Columbia mountain, to reach the big
vein that the shaft passed through be-
tween 40 and 100 feet from the surface
The crosscut is now out 140 feet to the
east from the shaft, and should soon
reach the vein, judging from its dip in
the shaft.
The average of numerous assays
made during the sixty feet in which the
shaft was going through the vein on its
dip was about Sc a ton, and much bet
ter values are anticipated at the ad-
ditional depth at which the crosscut
should intersect it. The breast of the
crosscut is now in silicited rhyolite,
and it is believed that the vein is not
far away,
