SEEKS HEAVY DAMAGES
IN CROSS COMPLAINT

In an answer and cross complaint
to the suit instituted by the Athens
Mercantile company to foreclose a
mortgage for $4,000, which was
filed in the clerks Office last Wedncs-
day, the Greek-American Mining
company seeks to recover damages
amounting to $4,000 for failure of
plaintiff to comply with the terms of
an agreement that had been entered
into between the two corporations.
The defendant denies that it owes
the amount specified in the COM
plant, and claims that the company
violated an agreement under the pro-
visions of which it was to provide the
defendant company with groceries
and other things necessary to the OPP
ration of its mining holdings In the
Silver Canyon district.
1t is alleged in the answer that the
corporation was compelled to sus-
pend operations through the action
of the Athens company. The defend
ant asserts that it could have con-
tinued ore shipmens, and made pay
ments to the mercantile company
and Simon Davis, the former owner
of the mining claims. to whom the
ground will revert. If the Greek
American company had complied
with the provisions of the agreement.
The plai, III filed demurrer last
Thursday to the cross-complaint. in
which 1t is contended that the coun-
ted-claim does not state facts suffisi ;
ent to constitute a cause of action.

To Perpetuate
Noted Company
j. u. SPURR VISITS WARD AND
TAYLOR WITH IDEA OF FIND
ING SUITABLE GROUND FOR
TONOPAH MINING COMPANY.

In quest of suitable properties to
perpetuate the Tonopah Mining COM
pany, which has had a meteorie
career in Nevada for the last ten
years, j. f. Spur. noted geologist,
left Thursday morning for Philadel-
phia, after spending five days in this
vicinity. He inspected geological
conditions at Ward and Taylor. being
anxious to determine whether with
systematic development work those
old time silver camps could regain
their former ascendeney as producers
of the white metal.
Mr.. Spur also made thorough in
spection of the possessions of the Ne
vada United at Ward, where 1t is
known that thousands of tons of low
grade silver-lead ores have been
blocked out, but lack of railroad ia
cilities have prevented that district
from entering the list of dividend
payers.
In his Official capacity as yice-presi-
dent in charge of mining for the
Tonopah company. Mr.. Spur has a
trained force of seven mining en-
giners. who are now engaged in pre-
liminary work. A large number of
propositions, in the United States and
Mexico have been submitted to Mr.
Spur and staff. and it is possible that
a suitable mine will be selected in
the near future.
In company with NJ. B. Hueston, a
mining engineer of Los Angeles, Mr..
Spur had contemplated visiting the
properties of the United States Tung-
stem corporation, which, it is be-
lieyed are controlled by the Tonopah
but the severe snow storms, and an
accident to the auto in which he was
travelling necessitated the postpone
ment of the trip. II is Mr.. Spurr's
ihithAioH " return 10 Ely III TWO
months to complete his labors in this
section of the state.
On their way to Ward the members
of the Spur party met with an acci-
dent, the rear axle of the Hoag ma
chine breaking when they were few
miles of their destination. The trip
to Ward was made afoot, where a
team was secured, and the stranded
travellers We're taken to the Nevada
United mines. where they spent the
night as the guests of Manager and
Mrs. Lane Pearl. A new axle was
made in the Nevada Northern shop
at East Ely. and after necessary re-
pairs had been made. the journey to
Taylor was made without further
hindrances.
Although | am devoting all my
time to finding another property for
the Tonopah company, l do not wani
anyone to suppose that the opera
tions of that corporation are nearing
