CONSOLIDATION OF
COUER O'ALENE MINES

Negotiations began two years ago

c~essfully consummated last week at
a meeting of representatives of the
Aeolian Con. Copper Mining COM

"The Aeolian company, whose
principal stockholders live in France
end who are nov associated with the
Columbia Copper company, has held
its claims for the last fourteen
years." said Mr.. Sharp. when
was in Europe in 1912 I looked up
the larger stockholders and opened
negotiations with them for the con-
s%OlidatiOn of the different interests
now combined in our new corpora
ton, but several times. when it
seemed that the deal was about
closed, different things happened to
upset our plans, and the matter
dragged along until the final meet
ing Friday.
"The long lower tunnel of the Ma.
tional Copper company, which be-
gins on the Homestake claim, runs
through our ground from north to
south, and arrangements probably
will be made to thoroughly prospect
and develop our entire group through
it. We will begin work June 1,
and after We have explored the
ground fully will map out an extern

granting of a special dispensatiOn
for the initiation into the local lodge
on July 4 and S of a class of forty
applicants of the town of Las Vegas.

GLASGOW & WESTERN
PERFECT|NG APPEAL
PREPARING PAPERS AT CARSON
CITY FOR FILING AT SAN
FRANCISCO

Attorneys C. A. Gillette of Gustin,
Gillette & Brayton of this city, and
Samuel Belford of Brown & Bedford,
Reno, New, are in Carson City per-
fecting the appeal OF Joseph Ralph,
liquidator for the Glasgow & West
ern Exploration company, from the
decision given recently in the suit
between the company and some
placer locators who sought to locate
placer claims on a part of the Copper
Canyon company's lode locations
near Battle Mountain, New. The
original suit was in the federal court
in Nevada, and appeal will be taken
to the United States circuit court at
San Francisco. 1t will be remember
ed hat the decision gave the placer
locators part of the ground they
claimed, while the Glasgow & West
ern people contend that their lode To-
cations constitute prior and valid
claims and that the placer locators
are not entitled to anything. An
amicable agreement has been reach
ed by which no work will be done
by either part On the three claims
in dispute while the appeal is pend
ing.
One of the matters now being
pushed by Mr.. Ralph in Strengthening
out the tangled affairs of the big
company is the patenting of fifty-one
n,inin0 claims thirfnnn nf fhnno hn-
longing to the Montreal properties in
Beaver county, sixteen to the Copper
Canyon properties in Nevada and
twenty-five to Copper Basin. Five
of the Montreal claims are already
patented, as are six of those at Cop
per Canyon and five at Copper Basin.
Mr.. Ralph says that while it is de-
sired to close up the business of the
concern and dispose of the properties
within a reasonable time, hone of
them will be sacrificed. He says the
concern is free of debt and does not
have to sell them until reasonable
prices can be obtained. He says
that he has refused an offer of $125,-
600 for one of the properties. He
has some prospective deals now in
hand that may result in sales.
The Glasgow & Western owned the
Copper Canyon properties for four
teen years, but no mining Of conse-
quence was ever done there. MI.
Ralph believes that this property and
others owned By the company are
m%eritorious and that if properly
handled would develop into paying
mines. After the affairs of the COM
pany came into the hands of Mr..
Ralph early in 1913 the work of de-
veloping and equipping the Montreal
mine for production was undertaken
with money furnished by Peter Coats
of Scotland, n of the heaviest
! stockholders. His death in Septem-
Der of that year stopped ecerything
right there and nothing in the line of
development or operation has been
done since at any of the properties

AS the local lodge of Elks has re-

grand lodge of the order to initiate a
class of forty applicants from Las
Vegas on July 4 and 5, arrangements
were completed today for an Elks'
special train to Goldfeld from the
junction town. 1t is expected that
the Las Vegas contingent will num-
Der not less than ESQ. The special
train from Millers and Tonopah will
leave the former town at noon and
the latter at 1 o'clock the afternoon
of the Fourth and is expected to
bring at least 500 visitors. In addi-
ton to the Las Vegas, Tonopah and
Millers visitors, it is certain that 9TH
er towns of southern Nevada will be

Unusual interest is being manifest
ed in the dance next saturday eve
ming at Ross-Holley hall, under the
auspices of the dance subcommittee
of the general celebration committee
for the benefit of the fund to defray

BELLE LINDSAY NINE
BRINGS GOOD PRICE

Mrs. Joe Lindsay yesterday sold
the Belle Lindsay mine, near Union,
to C.. S. Magee of Ely, who repre-
sented eastern capital. This mine,
about 35 miles south of Palisade,
was discovered by a wandering pros
pector, who sold it to Mr.. Lindsay in
1886 for 800 and an old gray horse.
Since that time the mine has been
worked at intervals, and has been a
good producer. In one period of
thirty days, $4,000 was taken out
of it, but it has lain idle for several
years past. Mrs. Lindsay received
$4,000 cash for the property.-Elko
