Round M't'n Titles Cleared
By Supreme Court Decision

victory for the Round Mountain com
pany, but its chief importance lies in
the fact that It means the dismissal
of the present Injunction suit by the
Sphinx company pending in court at
Tonopah, and leaves the Sphinx com
pany without any claim against the
Round Mountain company, as Los
Gazabos extra lateral sweep embraces
all of the area in conflict in the
case.
The Davidson case against the
Round Mountain company is not af-
feeted, as that was fully settled and
dismissed about six months ago This
decision leaves the Round Mountain
Mining company in the clear on all
Of its lode claims.
The Round Mountain-Sphinx Min
ing company sued for something over
100000 in the pending suit at Tono-
pah, but that, under the decision OF
the supreme court, none of this can
be recovered On the strength of
this decision a motion viii be made
10 dissolve the Sphinx injunction suit
and suit for damages on its bond will
probably be brought later on. The
