CACTUS SPRINGS IS
Scene OF ACTIVITY

The Lincoln Gold Mining company
of Chicago is preparing to do some ex-
tensive development work on claim
number 7 of its property, located in
Cactus range. Shallow workings in the
outeTopping lodges there have shown
values of from $14 10 $50 in gold aid
silver.
The New York company, operating
near Cactus Springs, is sacking some
good ore from its workings, and viii in
a few days begin shipping TO Goldfeld.
The company is working a promising
looking ledge which is giving them
quite a tonnage of $50 ore.
The Bailey brothers property, upon
which is a shaft ITO feet in depth, has
been leased by Messrs. Dyer and
Karleson of Goldfeld, who will com
mence operations on the 18th of the
month. They will sink to tie l25-foor
level and then drive a crosscut into the
hill, to get under the ledge which, at
the surface, shows encouraging values.

NANCY DONALDSON
In Low GRADE ORE

The crosscut from the 125-foot level
of the Nancy Donaldson shaft toward.
the west andesite dyke has reached a
point about 80 feet from the shaft and
has just passed through three feet Of
quartz carrying values up to s. per ton.
The development work has proven tha,
the rich stringer of ore found in the
shaft near the surface, was an off shoot
from the west branch of the big dyke
traversing the property, and it is ex.
pected that the work from now on will
show up the property to good advant-
age. Work will be continued through.
out the summer, and probably with an
increased force. The shaft will be sunk
deeper and the exploration of the west
dyke will be thorough on a number Of
levels.

GASOLINE HOIST FOR
RAILROAD SPRINGS

A 15-h. p. gasoline hoist bas just been
sent out to the property of the Rail
road Springs company by the Weber
brothers, who are largely interested in
the property, and lumber is being haul
ed out for engine house, bunk houses,
dining room, etc, as well az for tim.
bering The underground workings. The
shaft on the property is now down 100
feet, and is being timbered up. As soon
as the hoist is installed sinking will be
resumed.
The property has a very fine high
grade copper showing, and extensive
work is being ~inaugurated. Develop
ment is being carried on not only un-
der ground but in the surface showings,
and plans are under way for equipping
the property with a small mill as soon
as lateral work from the shaft at about
200 feet has caught the lodges that have
been explored on the upper levels. If
the size and values maintain at the
greater depth, the company will put up
a mill to handle its own ores.

COALITION OF IMPORTANT
ROUND MT. PROPERTIES

ROUND MOUNTAIN, April 49,
One of the most important eombina.
tions which has taken place in the
hydraulic camp, as Round Mountain is
usually termed, during the past six
months is that of the Downing and!
Buchanan Jr. interests as both of them
comprise valuable holdings and the
merging of the interests will insure a
continuance of work on these blocks
Of ground and win enable them to carry
on a campaign of development on a
much larger scale han heretofore
planned.
Mr. Downing, who has the Sassy Sal
fraction under lease from the Elsie
Mining company and who controls the
shoshone Milling company, joins with
Buchanan in his lease on Blue Jacket

IMPROVEMENT
ON Commonwealth

Steady development is being carried
on in the Knickerbocker lease on Com
~monwealth ground, and the WINE that
is being put down in the ore from the
old tunnel level is developing a fine
body of milling ore, with indications
that a material enrichment is being ap-
preached. The ore where the WINE
started vas held in a ledge of burned
looking, oxidized rhyolite quartz, but
as depth is gained stringers of sugar
quartz and the pinkish conglomerate
that held the ore in the workings where
the original discovery was made, are
coming in.
The ore contains some sulphides, but
good paintings are obtained from all the
rock that is coming up now. The ore
IS being saved, and possibly some ship
ping ore will be sorted out. Inc
leasers are wasting no time on TINS
however, but are steadily going after
the richer ore they believe lays below
The ore shoot will be followed dowa
for some distance, and then the Shoo'
tapped from the company shaft, from

The Daisy mill at Round Mountain
has been running on ore for the past
four months and the property, under
the management of Robert G. Skelly,
says the Tonopah Bonanza, is looking
better than it ever has before and it is
expected that under his direction the
property, which for some time past was
Just about paying expenses, will return
IA nice income to the owners
Many improvements have been in
stalled during the past few months
and others are to be placed in position
as soon as they arrive, many of them
having been delayed on account. of the
washouts on the road from Austin to
Battle Mountain.
OF late the Daisy has been en-
gagged in s~luieing the dirt from the
Blue Jackets and the leasers on the
halter property express themselves
as being well satisfied with the re-
suits 50 far obtained, it having af
forded them an opportunity to handle
DIRT which would not pay to mill.
The ieasers on the Blue Jacket are
still engaged in taking out ore and
several shipments have been made dur.
ing the past fortnight, all of which
have yielded a nice return.

speet being the expiration Of the time

larger than the old lease, winch was
a consolidation of three original leases
on the company property, W being
for 100x100 feet and the third for 100
feet on the vein by 800 feet across
the claim. This granting of additional
ground and granting the right to fol-
low the veins out of the old side lines
was a very important and valuable
concession in favor of the leasers.
The new lease to the Stall brothers
fixes a graduated scale of royalties,
not a fiat scale of 40 per cent, as has
been enormously published.
Must Maintain Change Room.
One of the important provisions of
the new lease 20 the Stall brothers is
that they must maintain a change
room. This provision for a change
room was offered and insisted upon
by the officials of the National Mining
company of Nevada. Another pro
vision of the new lease is that the pro-
duet shall be marketed under the joint
supervision of the leasers and com
pany officials. Another gives the leas.

Regarding the happy termination OF
the litigation that has practically
brought the camp of National TO a
standstill during the past six months
the Humboldt Star Of Winnemneca of
April IL, y The litigation involv-
ing the Stall brothers bonanza lease
at National has been settled out of
court by a compromise between the
leasers and the National Mining com
pany of Nevada, owner of the property
on which the famous lease is situated.
This agreement was reached after
an extended conference held between
the interested parties at Reno week be-
fore last. There the outline of the
compromise was agreed to. Last week
all the parties spent several days in
National, where the necessary surveys
were made. They returned to Whine
final conference was held and early in
The afternoon the legal papers were
signed up, under the terms of which
the litigation between the National
Mining company of Nevada and the
Stall brothers was brought to en- end
and the latter at once resumed work
on the lease which they have been
prevented by a district court i%nJunc-
ton from operating since the latter
part of last September.
Victory for Stall Brothers.
As will be seen by the synopsis given
at the head of this article, the COM
promise was unquestionably a sub
stantial victory for the Stall brothers,
they being given the right to operate
the lease under practically the same
terms that were in effect at the time
the sui. to Gust them was brought by
the National Mining company of Ne
vada and the injunction granted.
Under the compromise agreement
the Stall brothers lease is extended
about a month in time. They now
have a new lease extending one year
and twenty days from April 9. The life
of the old contested lease was ten days
less than a year at the time the in
junction went into effect.
The new lease to the Stall brothers
is for a block Of ground 300x300 feet
in size, extending $50 feet on each side
of the bonanza vein. They are given
the right to follow this vein, or any
other which may be encountered,
through the side lines of their leased

thirty days for the purpose of sinking
their WINE to connect with tho raise
from tunnel No. 8.
Work Starts at Once.
SO much for the details of the com
promise, but the most importan. fea-
ture of all is hat it meant the inn
mediate resumption of work on the
bonanza lease at National and that the
property will be again producing iu-
side of thirty days.
Within an hour after the agree
ment was signed Frank w. Stall left
by auto for National, after having tel
ephoned out to start work a. once.
Being denied the use of the company
workings, the lease hereafter will be
operated through a shaft. To pro-
vide for such a contingency the Stall
brothers sent a large hoist to National
several months ago. This hois. will be
installed at once over me of the
old leaser's shafts on their ground.
This shaft, which connects with tun-
mel No. 2, will be enlarged and timber
cd. Three shifts will be put at work
in the winze from the No. 2 tunnel
level to connect with the raise which
had been started from tunnel No. 3
level. When this connection is made
they will have a thoroughly equipped
and timbered working shaft 240 feet
deep, with three levels which extend
nearly to the end line of their lease,
the property then being in shape for
stopping on all levels and a big ore
production. The richest showing in the
lease is ON the No. 3 level, where the
bonanza shoot had been followed for
about fifty feet up to the time work
was stopped by the court injunction.
Without any stopping this fifty feet of
ground produced ore at the rate of
1000 per foot and the end of the
shoot had not been reached. The
~leasers have only to sink their shaft
about sixty feet when they will be
again In this treasure vault, the open
ing of which was responsible for the
litigation which has tied mp the lease
for over six months, kept the property
out of the list of dividend payers dur
ing that time and worked great injury
to the camp of National and this see
ton of the country in general, to say
nothing of the expense to which the
Stall brothers were put by the litiga-
ton.

GARRISON'S PRECIOUS
METALS LEASE GETS
into THE QUARTZ

On the Garrison lease of the Precious
Metals Mining company the crosscut
at $50 feet, being driven forward be-
yond the big vein recently passed
through to the st. Ives vein, which lies
to the west of it.
1t is expected that the st. Ives vein
will be encountered in a short distance
from the present face, as the slips and
fractures which were dipping to the
west, are now dipping east, which is
the dip of the St. Ives vein. Besides
the face is now making into quartz,
which shows a close approach to the
vein. The rock is heavily mineralized,
being filed with sulphides and is al.
together a very promising formation.
