STARTED SINKING ON
A HAMMOCK PROPERTY

BANNOCK, Feb. 25.-The Nebraska
Bannock Mining company has let a
contract to sink fifty feet on the Sun
rise lode, adjoining the Big Five on
the north and closely sidelining the
Valley View No. 3 of the Nevada
Omaha estate. The Sunrise was located
last fall by Walter Murray and asso-
ciates, and the location work disclosed
a ledge two and a half feet wide of
quartz and ~porphyry in a quartzlte for
nation that assayed from Judicioas
sampling, 1913 in gold. The ledge has
been traced for the entire length OF
the claim. So well did a certain prom
inent Goldfeld mining man think of
the claim, that, after securing the
above returns, he offered $4,000 SRr it,
but Murray's partners refused to con
sent to a sale at that price. Later
"A sale was contaminated with the pres
ent company which will develop, it is
believed, a mine. A few days work
by the contractors has already showed
an Improvement for the ledge is now
three and a half feet wide.

half of the leasing company stock II
the stockholders do not want it, nd
will thus guarantee the payment OF
the Eisen account, Los Angeles stock
holders also want the leasing stock,
and will take over the other half of
the neglected stock.
AS to the above, the Rhyolite Herald
says: The foregoing article from the
Los Angeles Times is in the main cor
rect. Yet there are some unmentioncd
phases of the contention which at this
time it might well to make public.
At the conference meeting of Mr.
Eisen and his attorney, G.. l.. Lyman
with the local stockholders committee,
Mr.. Eisen promised to attend the spe-
cial stockholders meeting on Feb. 3,
if it was called jointly for Feb. 5.
The committee wanted further time, but
deferred to Mr.. Eisen as he stated that
he was booked to sail from San Fran
cisco on February 8.
n ~ I'M VI Nv -
ing, Mr.. Lyman, as Eisen's attorney,
admitted that the then existing board
Of directors, as arranged in a lawyer g
Office in Goldfeld, was a "phoney'
board and would not stand any test IN
court. When Mr.. Lyman came to
Rhyolite on February 5, to attend the
special meeting as Mr.. Eisen S attorney,
the first announcement he made was
that "Mr. Eisen was on his way to
Honolulu At that time Mr.. Eiseh
was in San Francisco and did not sail
until February 8. At the same time
this Mr.. Lyman stated to the stockholG-
ers assembled that it was merely an
oversight of his, personally, that the
designations of the Eisen board of d.
~rectors were not presented at the meet
ing, and he gave every assurance that
the deficiency would be remedied as
soon as he could get back to those
s.phoney" directors. That ne has not
done so is no fault of the local stock
holders committee nor that of their
attorney.
The stockholders committee and its
attorney sought to rescue the Mayfiow-
err property with as little cost and
struggle as possible. A day or W
after the first local stockholders meet
ing. legal papers were ready for jump
ing into court, but principles of econ
omy of expense and time prevailed and
a long drawn out legal contest was
avoided.
The fact that the Eisen contingent
continue to exercise tricks and dupii-
city only promises that the d~enounce-
ment will be short, sharp and decisive.
Mr.. Eisen and his coadjutors Will
receive much les than they could
have secured by straight dealings
