gard to the rumors that gained currency
here aud in Palisade last week that the
Western Pacific would soon take over
and run the Eureka-N Nevada Railway
and which would also mean that the
Richmond Eureka Mining Company

formed the SENTINEL Wednesday that
as far as he knew there were no negoti-
ations on at this time looking to a

this community that something lie gong
on under the covers and that there will
500 be new developments in Eureka'f
