PATRICK FILES SUIT
IN BLACK BUTTE CASE

GOLDFIFLD, July 26.-Suit was filed
in the district court Monday by L. l.,
Patrick to enforce a new election for
board of directors and officers of the
Diamondfeld Black Butte Reorganized
Mining company, as a result of the
election on Thursday in which control
was taken from the Patrick forces.
The complaint sets forth that the
election vas illegal because Thomas
Mannin5 voted proxies for 2SS,Sl2
shares and also voted 645,5S7 shares OF
alleged treasury stock held by the
Registration Trust company as trustee
The cumulative system of voting was
also used Ly the Manning forces ana
the complaint of Mr.. Patrick attacks
that.
At the meeting Thursday, which was
rather interesting at times, Mr.. Patrick
nronosed a list of five directors and
trustees and the other stockholders
proposed three. Mr.. Patrick elected
himself and e. W. Clapp as directors
and the opposition elected e. A. Biyier'
J. G. Mckay and Benjamin Gill. Al a
meeting of the directors which Pat
rick and Gill did not attend, Byler
was elected president and Gill secre-
tary and treasurer.
Mr.. Manning contends that he had a
legal right as trustee to vote the proH-
les and treasury stock as he did, and a
hot fight will undoubtedly ensue as the
result of the filing of the suit Tor
new election.

NEGOTIATEs FOR SALE
OF DIXON COPPER MINE
Transfer of Property Will Add Big
Corporation to List of
Globe Producers

GLOBE. Ariz., July 26.-The closing
of a deal now under way will effect
the transfer of the Dixon Copper COM
panys property to the Globe-Arizona
and Ell Paso Copper Mining and
Smelling company, thus introducing
into Globe district another strong op-
erative mining corporation. Ihe
papers necessary to the conclusion of
the transaction are now being drawn
and all the negotiations will be COM
pleted by the end of this month.
The Dixon property is well known
about Globe. 1t embraces twenty
claims located about nine miles north
west of this city and not far from
Sleeping Beauty mountain. The work.
ings on the claims consist of two tun-
nels, a thirty-foot winze and 800
foot crosscut. In the course of past
operations on a small scale some cop
per- silver and gold ore and great
deal of magnetic iron have been put
into sight and indications very favor
able to the existence of large copper
deposits at greater depths have been
revealed. The deepest explorations,
however, have attained a depth Of only
130 feet.
The general formation on the Dixon
property has as it's most noteworthy
features a stratum of lime lying al
most fiat and of unknown thickness
with an everything stratum of metadia-
base whic hin some places apparently
verges into quartzite. Iron blowouts
are also of frequent occurrence.
During the past week H. Vincent
Wallace of Ell Paso has been in the
district making a thorough eXamina-
ton of the property, and the closing
of the deal follows his report. Mr.
Wallace is a consulting mining engi-
neer of wide reputation. He is
graduate of the Royal School of Mines
of London, England, has pursued his
profession in East India and other re-
mote parts of the earth. and is now
consulting engineer for the Tularosa
Copper company of Bent, New Mext-
co, and has just finished superintend-
ing the construction of a 300-ton mill
for treatment of low grade porphyry
ores at that place.

ALTAR PLACER STRIKE
GOES SO A CUBIC YARD;
LOCAL MEN INTERESTED

DOUGLAS, July ga rich gold
strike is reported from the placer fields
of the Cienega country, near Boludo,
in the Altar district. 1t has caused
great excitement in the city.
The parties who made the strike are
said to have taken out SO a cubic yard
in working a strip over 1000 feet long
in a gulch in the Cienega country,
where the strike was made, and man
aged to keep the discovery quiet until
about two days ago, when prospector
stumbled on the men as they were
taking their cleanup from the plates.
When the news reached Nogales'
AriZ.. word was sent out to a number
of mining men in Los Angeles who
have large interests in the field, and
resulted in their immediate departure
from Los Angeles.
H, E. Dugan of this city is said to
have received word of the affair and
left Yesterday afternoon for Nogales,
where he will join q number of his
California friends who are said to be
on their way to the scene OF the re-
ported strike.
]. n. McFate, who has large interests
in the vicinity OF the reported strike,
is said to have taken UP number
cf claims adjoining the alleged bon
nanza and has begun work. He VIII
he ioined later by number of frlendS
from Douglas and Bisbee who are IN

ERIE CONCENTRATOR is
ABOUT READY FOR WORK

NEVADA CITY, July 26.-The new
concentrator building at the Erie
mine near Graniteville will be COM
pleted in a short time, after which the
concentrators will be installed to re-
ceive the tailings from the 30-stamp
mill. 1t is believed that the cOncen-
traitors will be the means of saving
most of the values that escape the
plates.
Manager Ec.fs, who has been here
the past few days arranging to have
supplies hauled to the mine, will re-
turn to the Erie Monday. He says
that if the concentrator plant does not
retain all the values a cyanide plant
will be added later, as the company
intends to secure values to the min
inum.
Elisha Hampton of this city, who is
in charge of underground operations
at the Erie, is opening up the prop
erty in a systematic manner, some
thirty men being employed, The COM
pany has already made some payments
on the Erie and have great faith in
the future of the property.

COPPER is CHEAP

BOSTON. July 26.-Thef United
Metals Selling company has. a new sit
uation to meet, as Independent sellers
Of copper have signifed a Willingness
to sell the metal at 1924 cents 80 days,
or 1914 cents cash. While many Gus
toners apparently have not cared to
buv conner beyond their immediate
reGuirements even at the low prices,
there have been one or two isolated
cases where october and November
copper has been sought, but producers
as well as consumers continue to eX-
ercise caution with regard to commit
ting themselves far ahead.
Plenty of copper has been sold for
September delivery, however, at l23s
cents. People well informed in copper
affairs on both sides of the Atlantic,
both Al buyers and sellers, believe that
should the metal touch 12 cents the
market would be flooded with orders
not so much from consumers as from
foreign spectators and others who
consider the metal at II cents pound
a good investment.

STANDARD ABANDONS WELL,
IN RABBIT AS A FAILURE

COALINGA, July 26.-There was
considerable excitement last week
centered around the Standards wild
cat hole in the Rabbit valley, near
Bitterwater, in San Benito county,
when it was believed that the bit had
gone into a light oil sand A perfor-
ator was hauled from Coalinga and
after perforating the well was put on
the pump. when it was found that
they had salt water.
The hole is down over 2300 feet and
it has been drilling for the past eight
months It is now believed the hole
will be abandoned. This marks an
other failure in the Standards Wild
cat undertakings.
The Standard a short time ago paid
1000 for the oil rights on the Dunno
ranch on the Topo, and it is not
known yet whether it will continue to
drill in that territory or not.
The Monterey-San Benito company,
which was recently organized to take
over the operations of the Salinas Oil
company, is still working in the Bit
terwater valley and is said to be the
only company now actively working
in that country. They have hopes of
striking a good paying sand there.

FIVE PRODUCING WELLS

WATSONVILLE, July 26.-Situated
in the heart of the Sargent ranch, in
the foothills of the Santa Cruz noun
tains and only about three miles from
Sargent station, the WatsonVille Oil
company has five wells producing 10
gravity oil and making a nice income
from the production, besides leasing
small parts of the oil rights on its
5000 acres.
The jacksonville company has been
drilling holes in the Sargent ranch for
over ten years and many of these holes
were busters. 1t finally drilled directly
below some of the seepages and
brought in a fairly good well, which is
now doing about twelve barrels. No
is now doing about sixty barrels and
No. about seventy-five barrels. Nos
4 and 5 are producing about ten barrels
each. and with No. l are only pumped
night and morning. The wells are
close together and are of an average
danth OF 900 feet in eight-inch casing.
The holes were started in 113s inch, and
the surface water shut off with this.
There was no W1ter encountered after
that depth.

KINGSTON MINES At
AUSTIN RESUME WORK
Properties Are Reopened by Cali
fornia Man-NeW Machin-
cry for Jack Pot

AUSTIN, New, July 26.-The famous
Kingston mines, just out of Austin, at
the head of Smoky valley, have re-
sumed operations. A bond has been
signed by l. Hirschfield of Bakersfield,
Cal, and work under his direction has
already been started Three shifts will
be busy this week driving the Irvine
tunnel, which must be run 500 feet to
cut the contact ledge, the mother lode
of the district. The Kingston mines
have produced more than $S00,000, and
are the property of J. A. Miller and ].
A. Miller, jr., of the Bank of Austin.
Mr.. Hirschfield had previously worked
this property, having expended $4,000
in its development, when the failure of
the State Bank and Trust company put
him out of business. He has recouped
his fortunes in the Bakersfield oil, and
is now right back at what he believes
to be one of the biggest mines in the
state of Nevada.
The Austin Manhattan company has
machinery installation in shape for a
more vigorous mining program in Aus
tin than has been seen here for years.
The 60-horsepower hoist is in place at
the Jack Pot and the gallows frame
almost completed. An air compressor
is in readiness for work, and within a
few days sinking on the ledge from the
200 level viii be commenced.
OPHIR RETNIBERED
At the Ophir shaft, which will re-
open the entire Union section of the
camp, retimbering has progressed to
the 100-foot level The power hoist,
formerly in use at the Jack Pot will
be transferred to the Ophir, and these
operations will go forward with much
more speed than in the past. At the
mill everything is ready for the eX-
pected arrival OF the machinery for the
electrostatic reduction plant which has
been shipped from Boston. Alterations
of an extensive nature have already
been made in the mill structure. TheSG
will be completed by experts who will
arrive from the east almost any day.
The Maricopa mines company, leas-
ing at the Patriot, are installing COM
plete heavy mining equipment and will
carry on operations second in impor-
tance to none in this section of the
state. This company will drive tun-
mel 5000 feet in a mineral region that
has furnished some of the richest ore
ever shipped to the smelters from Aus
tin.
Joe Bray is installing a furnace to
treat antimonial ore at his mines,
twelve miles south from Austin. These
mines have produced ore that was
shipped to Europe at a profit, and now
that methods have been found to re-
duce the ore on the spot it is believed
that the antimony mines of Lander
county will again come to the front.
