FORFEIT OPTION
ON ELK0 PRINCE
SAVAGE ESTATE TO RESUME DE-
VELOPMENT OF GOLD
CIRCLE PROPERTY

Paul Elhers, known throughout
the mining camps of the west as the
Lucky Dutchman,' was in town Sat-
urday from Gold Circle. He left on
the Southern Pacific de luxe for New
York, where he expects to remain a
month. His mission is on business
connected with the Elko Prince prop
erty, in which he holds a large inter-
est, the control being in the hands
of the Savage estate OF New York.
The Montana parties who had the
Elko Prince under option recently
gave up the deal on account of the
death of the man who was promoting
it, and the property has been turn
ed back to the company. 1t is ex-
pected that arrangements will be
made by which the Savage estate will
resume operations on the property in
a short time and continue develop
ment on a large scale.
1t Is said that the engineers report
of the examination of the Elko Prince
showed that the ore in sight in the
mine and on the dumps is of the net
value of over a million dollars

.AMALGAMATED P|OCHf
WORK IS PROGRESSING

The cross-cut on the fourteenth
level of shaft No. l of the Amalga-
mated Phoebe to connect with the
Raymond & Ely fissure is progress
ing satisfactorily. Quartzite con-
tinues to be the rock encountered
and through 1t an advance of more
than 100 feet has been made. The
best work so far occurred on the
second inst, when eleven feet was
gained in two rounds, each of which
was drilled and shot on an eight
hour shift. Three shifts are at work
constantly.
Stringers of zinc-lead sulphides
in a quartz gangue were cut yester-
day. These stringers vary from a
mere crack to four inches in width.
This indication is encouraging.
A heavy door and bulkhead are
being installed in the cross-cut in or
der to control the water which
stands in the b l. winze and its
tributary workings and which will
be encountered when the vein is cut.
hC WotCi otdhuo " lCCt apoNC tbC
Cross-cut (Which gives a pressure of
80 pounds to the square inch) and
should this water be cut into in such
manner as to bring it into the
cross-cut all at once the door of the
bulkhead would have to withstand
$50 tons pressure. This, however,
is not expected-rather it is antici-
pated that the flow of water will
come gradually. A long drill-hole
is carried at the face of the drift
to give warning of the approach to
the water company.
A second pump was lowered this
week into the 14th level station; the
two, it is hoped, will be able to clear
the water as it flows from the cross
cut.
Encouraged by the fine weather,
~leasers are again working on the
slug dumps and nea surface ore
showings; as a result, more ore is
being shipped than during the past
three months.-Pioche Record.

GOLDEN ARROW COMPANY
HAS WATER AND VEIN

The Golden Arrow Development
company is in rich ore and also has
lots of water that drowned out the
mine last week, but will be overcome
in a few days as soon as Manager
+. NJ. Kieron, with his customary
energy gets action. However, Mr..
Kieron expresses himself thankful
that he has such a lot of competent
employees, for through their diligence
the company lost nothing as not even
a foot of pipe was overlooked in The
haste of getting away from the rap
idly encroaching waters.
This is another illustration o. up
plying business methods tn mining,
which Manager Kieron always on
tended would win the same rs IN any
other business. Edward j. Bl;k. the
foreman, an old Cripple Creek miner
who got his experience OF the Mary
Mckinney, is credited with the dis
play of celebrity that saved the Golden
Arrow company from a good deal of
inconvenience, to put it lightly.
A three-foot ledge was opened on
the 4O0-foot level, where 1t was not
expected as there was no indication
on either the 200 or 3O0-foot levels.
AS soon as the ledge was opened
water began pouring in, and soon ii
was seen that the pmup, which has a
capacity for handling 100000 gal
Ions a day and has been handling
that for the last five weeks, could
not cope with the new flood and ord.
ers were given to clear the mine,
Manager Kieron always kept the
blocks on the pump. which vas hoist
ed out of danger and every piece OF
equipment, including stray pieces OF
pipe, were taken to the surface. The
shaft is timbered safely and Mr.. Kie-
ron says he has nothing to fear from
the invasion which is not an un-
mixed evil, as it insures lots of water
for the proposed mill which will be
under construction before long.
The water came within Is feet OF
the old water level, showing the new
water came from the ledge and the
pump had been pulling a surface
flow up to date. The company is
running three shifts of eve men
each.-Bonanza.

NYE AND ORMSBY COUNTY
BANK RECEIVERSHIF

During a brief session of the dis
trict court SATURDAY.. Judge Langan
presiding, a partial report was re-
ceived from E. O.. Patterson, receiv-
er of the defunct Nye and Ormsby
county bank. The receiver was rep
resented by Hon. Sam Plat, attOr
ney, and the state by Attorney Gen
eral Thatcher. During the proceed
ings the question of compensation
for the receiver came up and the lat
ter presented a claim for salary OF
$500 per month from October, 1911.
Action on this, however, at the re-
quest of the attorney general, was
postponed till a later date. Regard
ing compensation received by Mr.,
Plat, as attorney, Mr.. Patterson
said he had paid him $4,000.
When questioned as to the amount
of funds now in the possession of the
receiver, Mr.. Patterson stated that
he had about $4,000 cash on hand.
the judgment in the Bowes CASE for
$40 1000, and bonds and other assets
valued at from $4,000 to $4,000,
a total, perhaps, of $4,000, but
this amount and more was covered
by preferred claims. Asked if there
was any hope that the depositors
would ever receive anything from
the banks resources, Mr.. Patterson
stated that he believed not.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Patter-
sons statement the attorney general
asked that the matter go over till a
later date, in order to give him time
to make further overwhelmingly
neal.

LANDER PROPERTY
NOW MAKING GOOD

Charles L%ittrell, prominent in min
ing circles of Lander county, who
has been spending the past few days
in this city attending to some details
pertaining to the Austin-Dakota
mine, of which he is the general
manager, departed for his home at
Austin last evening. Prior to his de-
parture MI. Littrell stated that the
old camp of Austin was destined to
come back as a producer Of high
grade ore in the nea future. Con-
tinual litigation has been the means
of retarding the proper development
of the mines of Lander county and
with a settlement of the legal tan
giles renewed activity will be cen in
practically all of the properties of the
district.
The Austin-Dakota property is
making a good showing" said Mr..
Littrell, I'VE are following the ledge,
which ~outcropped on the surface, in
an incline shaft that has attained a
depth of 22O feet in commercial ore
from the surface down. 1t is not all
highgrade, but will pay to mine. Last
week we extracted ten cars of ore
that will run better than $50 in gold
and have made shipments from time
to time. We will continue develop
ment work until further depth is at

POSTOFF|CE SITE
TO Be SELECTED
ATREASURY DEPARTMENT OFF,
CIAL HERE FOR THAT
PURPOSE

J.. n. Fleming, site agent of the
United States treasury department
with headquarters in Phoenix, Ari-
IONA, arrived in Goldfeld yesterday
morning for the purpose of selecting
d site for the erection by the govern
ment in this camp of a postoffice
building, an appropriation of $4,000
fer which purpose was made by con-
gress in 1911. Agent Fleming on
Friday while in Fallon selected the
site for the federal building to be
erected there at a cost of 100000,
for the housing of the reclamation
service Offices and postoffice.
Mr.. Fleming will spend several
days in Goldfield in the task of Sc
lecting a site for the proposed post
office building. He stated yesterday
that the foul sites thus far offered
we're undesirable in one or another
respect and that the purpose of his
visit here at this time is to make a
definite selection of a site that will
meet all requirements and prepare a
report upon the ACCESSIBILITY of the
erection of the building.
Agent Fleming expressed himself
as much impressed with his observa-
lions here and stated that he could
not see any reason why the govern
ment would not be justified in ex-
pending the available appropriation
for the federal building. He COM
mented particularly upon the numer-
Gus substantial stone and brick build
ings in camp, notably the Goldfield
hotel, and declared that they cOnsti-
tute ample evidence of their owners
in the ~permanency of the town. Mr..
Fleming stated hat as the proposed
building will be 60 by 20 feet in di-
mansions, with a floor space of ap-
proximately 1000 square feet, a site
1875 feet square will be necessary. AS
stated above, the appropriation for
the local postoffice building was made
by congress in 1911 but the erection
of the building has been delayed from
time to time. One of the most in
defatigable workers for a federal
building has been Milton M. Detch.
