Special to News and Tribune.
SEATTLE, WASH, Feb. Judge
Cushman of the United States court
in this city on Saturday, upon the
complaint of Mrs. Lucy v. S. Ames,
a resident of Missouri, appointed
Carl M Johanson of Seattle, tempo
rary receiver of the Goldfield Mer-
ger Mines company and the Goldfield
Deep Mines comnany, owning and
operating property tfn the Goldfield
district of Nevada. The latter cor
pOration owns control of the former,
being holding company. The suit
was filed in Seattle for the reason
that the corporations involved were
organized under the laws of Wash
ington.
In her complaint, Mrs. Ames al
leges a long series of frauds in the
management of the Merger company,
whereby the Velvet claim, which she
alleges is worth $1O.OOO,OO0, was
transferred for a song to the Jumbo
Extension Mining company, which
the complaint enormously states is
subsidiary of the Goldfield Consoli-
dated Mines company. Involved in
the suit are j. Ross Clark, brother of
ex-senator w. A. Clark of Montana;
c. o. Whittemore, George Wingfield
and c. E. Redman.
The complaint alleges that the
stockholders of the Merger contrib
10 fOv ln, N
work; that rich deposits of ore were
found in the Velvet claim and kept
secret; that it was later leased to
the Jumbo Extension with an option
to buy and that tho option was taxi
en- up and the claim sold for $4,000
in cash and 171,OOO shares of Jum-
bo Extension stock. 1t is further al
legged that the Jumbo Extension
stock involved in the transaction
was then sold on the market for
song and bought up by the sellers
through brokers. 1t is further
charged that a consolidation of the
Merger property with the Goldfield
Consolidated Mines company is now
planned. The hearing on the appli-
cation for a restraining order has
been fixed for February s. The tenn
porary receiver seeks authority to
bring suit for the recovery of the
Velvet claim.
Aside from the above dispatch,
local officials of the Goldfield Mer-
ger Mines company and the Gold
field Deep Mines company know
nothing of the action of the federal
court in Seattle in appointing re-
ceiver for the two companies. The
history of the sale of the Velvet
claim by the Merger company to the
Jumbo Extension company, how
ever, is we'll known. Negotiations
looking to the acquisition of the
claim were begun in January, 1914,
which at no time called for lease.
Papers were signed on March 20
last, at which time an initial pay
ment of $4,000 was made for a
sixty-day option to purchase the
claim for $500 in cash and ILL.,
900 shares of stock. Thirty-five days
subsequently the option was exer-

NOME SWEEPSTAKES
 EARLY IN APRIL

The Nome Kennel Club will run it's All Alaska Sweepstakes during the first part of April. 1915. The Sol omon Derby will be run possibly in February and will be one of the fastest races over that distance. Judging by the list of teams that are eligible to start it looks as if Charlie Johnson's record of hours and 47 minutes will be equalled, if not low cred. His time was made over an extremely fast trail. The probable starters are Fred Aver, who won the last Derby, Allen and Darling, Bowen and Delzenne; Setpela will pilot the Siberians in the absence of John John son; George Loman, Percy Blatchrord, Harry Riley, Emil Olson, Jos. Shel- don and Chester Milligan.

GOAL LEASES ID PROTECT THE
 MINERS

Federal mine inspector Sumner s. Smith is expected in Cordova on the next steamer from Juneau, and will continue his journey to Fairbanks, at which place he will hold a con |ference with territorial inspector Will liam Maloney.
 MT. Smith has just returned from the east, where he was called by the secretary of the interior to Pittsburgh for the purpose of conferring with c. E. Dutton, attorney for the U. s. Bureau of Mines, who had the task of drawing the leases for Alaska coal lands that will be available under the leasing law recently passed by congress. MT. Smiths presence was desired in order to rpovide for mine inspection and safety of the miners who may be employed under the leases. The leases as drawn carry practically all of the rules and reg ulations in accordance with the gen eral mine inspection laws. The leas- es as drawn provide for every contin- gency.
 Altogether Inspector Smith spent six weeks at the government mins ing experimental station at Pittsburg gaining whatever new information that was available in relation to his work.

NEW CRUsHER PLANT
 FUR JUNEAU MINE

The big, new ore reduction plant as it is being installed at Thane, will use an entirely new system of crush ing and treating the gold ore from the Perseverance mine.
 The Alaska-Gastineau company Is preparing to handle 24,O0O tons of ore per day at a profit of 75 cents per ton. and have over 5O,OOO,OOO tons blocked oiut on their property.
 The ore is handled by gravity sys- tenn entirely, with the exception of hauling from the mine, through the mine to the upper crushing plant, TOO feet above the beach.

TERRITORIAL TREASURER
 IS IN NEED OF ADVICE

Walstein c. Smith, territorial treas urer, is one among several who have felt the need of territorial attorney general, or the need of a fund that could be drawn upon to secure legal advice.
 Since assuming office Treasurer Smith has been compelled a number times to seek legal counsel Since there are no funds for such an emerg- ency and since there is no attorney general or other legal representative provided for among the territorial off eers, he was forced to seek the advice from attorneys who would not charge for the same. In other words, he has been compelled to Sponge" the neces- sary legal advice for the territory of Alaska.
 This is matter that will be called to the attention of the next legislature In fact, number of measures are necessary in order to clear up the pres ent muddled laws and to clearly and sharply define the duties of territorial officials, seperate from federal officials, and to provide .ha means to carry on these different departments.
 There are territorial collections of taxes which are not made at the pres- ent time owing to the ambiguity of the law. These prospective revenues would pay the salary of an attorney general or legal representative several times over.

ANOTHER STEAMER LINE
 PROMISED F0R ALASKA

A. E. Raynor, who is making a tour of Southeastern Alaska, says that an- other transportation company is in process of formation for the purpose of engaging in the Northern trade and that a line of steamers will be put on the run to the westward, prob ably via Juneau. Official announce ment of the new deal, MT. Raynor says, may be locker for any day now.
 There will be a tremendous travel to Alaska commencing with the early spring, MT. Raynor says, according to present indications. They are com ing from all sections lured by the promise of big developments in the
 e:ritory occasioned by the building of the government railroad and the opening up of the coal lands.
 MT. Raynor was formerly engaged in business in Nome, Fairbanks and other interior points. Later he came to Juneau and recently has been travelling throughout the states. He was as far east as Denver on the present trip.

VETERAN AUTHOR HONORED BY
 ROYALTY

The late Edward Clayson, ST. father of our townsman. Will Clayson, was the only veteran on the Pacific coast who participated in the Sweaborg bombardment during the Crimean war. Among MT. Clay sons cherished possessions was a sil- yer medal conferred upon him by the late Queen Victoria at the close of the Crimean war.
 For more than forty-nine years Mir. Clayson had been a virile figure in the history of the territory and state .of Washington, and in Oregon before that time.
 September 19. 1912, an unusual dis tinction was conferred on MT. Clayson by the mayor and council of Vancou- yer, D. C., when on the occasion of the visit to that city of the Duke of Con. naught Mir. Clayson was the only citi- zen in the state of Washington, and probably in the entire northewst, to receive an official invitation from these authorities to participate in the recep- tion to the Duke, held in Stanley park. The invitation was given in recogni- ton of his being the only living vet chan of the Crimean war on the Pa cihc coast.
 Besides being a wide reader and stu dent of the classics in literature he was extremely fond of music, the vio- lin which he himself played, being his favorite instrument. No gather ing of the pioneers of Washington was considered complete without him.
 MT. ClaysOn, who took up a perma- nent residence at Seabeck, in the state of Washington, forty-nine years gao, had done more to pertuate the Chinook jargon than any other Wash ington pioneer He repeatedly made public addresses in that language, and urged its wider use throughout the Northwest. "Cumtux," Chinook for do you understand?" was his favor ite expression.
 Mir. Clayson enjoyed vigorous health until last summer In September he suspended the publication of the Pa triarch in Seattle, on account of ill- ness.
 MT, Clayson engaged in the tea i'm porting business ebfore other per son, firm or corporation in the North west thought tea was worth import ing. He was United States mail contractor and carrier on Puget Sound in 1868, using a sloop for this work. for the era of steamboating on Puget Sound had not then commenced.
 He was the author of a volume en- titled Historical Narratives of Puget Sounds' also one entitled "Tbe Muck Rake" which he dedicated to Col. Theodore Roosevelt.
