AMAzON-MANHATTAN
NEW TRIAL OF CASE
SUPREME COURT REvERsEs DE-
cIsloN OF JUDGE FLYNN
SYNOPSIS OF ISSUE.

The supreme court has reversed the
decision OF Judge John NJ Flynn in the
case Of II. M. Davenport and others
against Patrick Burke and the case Is
remanded to the district court for trial.
Judge Flynn rendered his decision on
the pleadings and the supreme court
says that this was erroneous. The
case IL one Of unusual Importance, as
ii involves title to the Amazon Man
haitian group Of claims, situated on
Carbon creek in the Sunset district and
which have since been taken over by
the Interstate Callahan company The
origin of the suit dates from January
1912, when Patrick Burke and w. T.
option on the Amazon Manhattan
property for 100000. There We're two
separate options, one covering the in
terest Of Thomas Kelly, Ben S. Revett
and w. M. Clark for $4,000, and the
other taking the interest held by III. M
Davenport, M, J. Flohr, c. w Belts
G. II. ASP and the estate Of Barry N
Iiilliard for $4,000.
In the course Of development the
owners refused to permit Burke and
Tracy to mine certain ore bodies, when
Tracy refused to continue his part Of
the agreement. Burke continued tc
work and alleged that he had an ora
agreement with the owners to enter
into new agreement similar to tho
first, and afterward Organized the Anna.
zon- Manhattan Mining company as 9
means to raise money to continue work
and meet the payments.
Failed to Make First Payment.
on December 3, 1912, the first pay
ment became due and the owners al
lege that only $176 had been paid on
the purchase price, being 25 per cent
Of the ore shipped by Burke, leaving Q
balance of S15,S24 due. Failing to meet
this, the owners declared the contract
void the following day and demanded
possession of the property. Burke re-
fused to give possession and the case
was taken to the court
Following the voiding Of the con-
tract the owners gave an option te
John Fl. Wourms, acting for the Inter
state-callahan company, for 100000
one tenth of which was paid.
Burke's Defense,
In his answer Burke alleges that he
assumed and paid an Indebtedness Of
s90OO incurred by Tracy, and under ar
oral agreement with the owners had
expended $4,000 on the property, and
that he had interested capitalists who
were willing to carry out the agree
ment He also alleged that at the time
he was stopped from work that there
was fully $25O,O0O worth or ore in
sight He asked the court to either
enforce the delivery of the agreement
or award him damages in the sum Of
$2SOOoO
In his decision rendered on thu
pleadings Judge Flynn held that Burke
had violated the terms of the agree
ment and that they We're therefore
void. the title OF the ownership was
quieted and the temporary restraining
order against Burke was made per-
manent,
In the meantime the option held by
wourms has been paid and the prop
erty is now In possession of the Inter
state-Callahan company.

BASIN MINING COMPANY
WHY RE|NCORPORATED
NoN-AssEssABLE CERTIFICATES
ISSUED BY MISTAKE - CON-
PANY OWNS GOOD GROUND

Articles of Incorporation of the Basin
Mining company were filed this week.
The incorporators are John p. Gray,
Therrett Towles and Franklin Pfirman.
The company Is capitalized for $4,000,
divided into 100000 shares of the par
value OF cents each. The company
owns group of patented claims lying
south of and adjoining the Hercules.
The filing of these articles Of lncor-
poration Is the sexual to a rather in
teresting story which had its begin

ment on the outstanding stock of the
original Basin Mining company for

Gray Had to Pay.

II is said that the worcestershire
provision on the stock was an error
of the printer, hut the supreme court
had held 1t binding and no money
came In for the assessment. Later on
the State Bank of Commerce failed and
! Mr.. Gray had to pay the note In
course of time he brought suit against
the Basin Mining company for the
money he had advanced and secured a
Judgment. About the time the re-
demption period was to expire when
he would have taken title to the prop
erty of the company, James Cronin, a
stakeholder, came in and redeemed the
property. He in turn brought suit
against the company and secured Il
judgment for the money he had PAID,
Here the matter rested until a few
days before the first of last April, when
Mr.. Cronn would have taken title to
the porperty under his Judgment. 1t
was then that the several parties con-
cerned got together and decided to re-
organize the company making the
stock assessabe which would give all
stockholders an opportunity to retain
their holdings. Hence the incorporS,
ton of the Basin Mining company last
week, A small assessment will now be
levied to reimburse Mr.. Cronin and to
meet other obligations of the company
Beyond this the company has no def
mite plans.

public it was readily taken at 10 cents

necessary to pay for patenting the

and director of the company, borrowed
several hundred dollars from the State
