AGAIN LANCASTER WINS
IN ST. LAWRENCE CASE
SUPERIOR JURY SAYS sLAlDLAW,
INC. HAS FORFEITED
ALL RIGHTS.

Andrew Laidlaw, Inc went down to
defeat for the third time last Tuesday
In his action against Henry M. Lam
caster to recover possession of the st.
Lawrence mine, near Saltese. The
case was tried before jury In the
district court of Mineral county at
Superior, Judge Duncan presiding.
The plaintiff had for his attorneys w.
c. Jones and S. p. Dormer, of Spo-
kane, and Thomas N Marlowe, of
Missoula. Mr.. Lancaster was repre-
sented by Carlton Fox, of Feather
stone & Fox, of this city, and Harry
Fl. Parsons and Frederick w. Dewart,
OF Missoula. The trial started last
Friday morning and occupied the
court until late Tuesday evening, when
1t went to the jury. A verdict was
quickly rendered in favor of Lancaster
which in effect means that Laidlaw
forfeited all rights to the property on
March l, 1917, when he failed to COM
ply with the terms of the bond. 1t
was shown in the trial that since that
date Lancaster had spent $4,000 in
making payments on the property ana
In development work, and during the
same period he had shipped 20 car

r. VERIFYING is in readiness
r. for the Red Cross drive, which
will begin next Monday. The
county has been thoroughly and
Systematically organized so that every
Isection will be covered quickly and
thoroughly. While an intensive cam
paign will be maintained throughout
the week, it is expected that fully rs
per cent of the amount TO be raised In
Shoshone county will be secured the
first day. W. J. Hall is manager Of
the drive in this county and he ard
his assistants have worked out a sys-
tenn by which all solicitors will make
daily reports to their captains WHO in
turn will tabulate them and turn in
triplicate copies to the district mama
ger, who will retain one copy and ,ile
the other two with the county man
agement One of these will be retain
ed and the other furnished the press
for publication.
Shoshone county must raise $4,000
for the Red Cross; that Is, $4,000 Is
the minimum amount, but it Is hoped
and believed that the close of the
week will find this figure largely over
subscribed. Every patriotic citizen
wants to help the Red Cross and will
do so, and it is only question Of how
much. Each individual will have to
determine that question for himself,

NORTH BUNKER HILL.
Preparing to Crosscut From Shaft at
Depth Of 300 Feet.

The North Bunker Hill company is
cutting station at the 800 level pre-
paratory to prosecuting to the ledge,
which is expected to be intersected in
about 200 feet. The station pump has
been installed The shaft is in the
foot wall considerable distance from
the vein, but the ground through
which it passes is heavily mineralized

he found divide covered with snow
that blocked travel. He was therefore
compelled to go by way Of Thompson
and Standpoint, and as his time was
limited he made the run from Mis-
soula to Spokane, 27O miles, in Is
hours. He says there is nothing like
a Ford for trip of that kind. On the
entire trip he made an average of 20
miles on gallon of gasoline. The
trip consumed 19 days. Regarding
rare war metals, Mr.. Greenough said
he found nothing that would justify
the expenditure Of money in devel-
opment.

MANAGER TELLS OF PROGRESS;
ALSO DEscRlBES AN UN-
USUAL TRIP.

Reconstruction Of the old Carbon
ate Hill tunnel by the Carbonate Hill
Giant Mining company has been COM
pleted and large underground sta
ton Is now being cut, in which will
be installed 12x15 Lidgerwood air
hoist. An incline galloway is being
cut leading from the hoist to the
scheave wheel, and the hoist will be
~ feet back from the collar of the
shaft. Good progress is being made
and it is expected that the station will
be completed in. six week or two
months, when sinking will begin The
company employs II men at the mine
and two at the compressor. Good ac-
commodations have been provided for
employees, the latest addition being a
steam heated dry room with lavatory
and shower bath. Development of the
property Is under the direction of W..
Earl Greenough. who was in the city
yesterday.
Trip Through Four States.
Mr.. Greenough, accompanied by his
business associate r. B. Davis, also
mining engineer, has recently re-
turned from an unusual trip in which
a large territory was covered in a
Ford car He was called to eastern
Oregon to examine mining property
and concluded to take advantage OF
the opportunity to investigate vari-
GUS places where metals needed by
the government were reported to have
been found. Everything went well
until he struck the Blue mountains in
Oregon, where he had to buck consid-
erable snow getting over the summit.
After completing the work that called
him to eastern Oregon, he went on to
Huntington and thence down the
Snake river to Homestead, where he
visited the Iron Dixie mine. This mine
Is out of the ordinary and is well
worth a visit. The company owns the
townsite and provides modern cot
tages or bungalows for its married
employees. For the single men splen-
did boarding house and club is main
tanned. The company also provides a
ladies' Club, being a large room well
furnished, with kitchen adjoining, al
so having tub and shower bath. 1t is
for the free use of the ladies of the
town to give card parties or dances
When Mr. Greenough was there 1t
had been turned over for the use of
the Red Cross.
Transportation Novelty.
The Iron Dixie company employs 70
men. A new triple compartment shaft
Is now being sunk. The ore, which is
copper, is treated by flotation exclu-
sively In the 150-ton mill. The mill
Is quarter Of mile from the rail-
road and the concentrates are piped
to the track. There they are received
in a tank, from which they pass
through filter to remove the moist
ure and are then loaded on the cars.
Takes in South Idaho.
From Homestead Mr.. Greenough
went to Boise, thence to Bear Lake
county, in the extreme southeast cor
ner Of the state. Returning he took
in Pocatello and then Idaho Falls.
From there he headed northeast for
Gilmore, in Lemhi county, thence
down to Leadore, and from there
across the divide to Armstead, Mont.
Continuing north through Dillon, he
visited Butte and Anaconda. Thence
by way of Philipsburg to Missoula. He
desired to come through to Wallace,

DREADNAUCHT STRIKE
2 TO s FEET LEAD.z|NC
ALL INDICATIONS POINT TO A
LARGE AND PERMANENT
ORE BODY.

An ore shoot was struck on the
Dreadnaught last week which, as far
as explored varies in width from IS
inches to six feet of lead-zi ore.
This information was obtained from
William J. J. Smith, manager of the
property, who was in the city Tues
day having several assays made of
the ore These assays show values
that are most satisfactory and taken
in connection with the general char
acteristics of the ore body and the
formation in which it was found give
unmistakable evidence of perman-
ence and great extent The returns
from three of the samples assayed
are here given and may be taken as a
fair estimate of ore as far as disclos-
ed: Silver, 1.5, 81 and .95 ounces:
lead, 3.9, 175 and 3.5 per cent; zine,
101, % and 1928 per cent. Work dur
ing the winter has been confined to
drifting to get under the showing of
ore disclosed in a shaft sunk about II
feet on the vein. At a point about 200
feet from the portal a crosscut was
run north which cut blind lead in
about 20 feet, which showed much
quartz and iron and a little lead, a
very favorable showing. However,
work was resumed in the main drift.
After driving about 500 feet the
course was changed northerly to
catch the blind lead, which when in
tersected proved to be little changed
from where it was encountered in the
crosscut,. After a survey Mr.. Smith
decided to crosscut south to the orig
inal vein and it was in doing this that
he struck the ore described above al
most in line with the course of the
drift.
Ore East and West.
Drifting is now in progress both
east and west with a good showing
of ore in both faces. The depth now
attained is about $40 feet and $50 feet
further east will reach point Under
the shaft with depth Of fully 400
feet. The Dreadnaught company
holds five claims and two fractions on
both sides of Beaver creek, about
mile and half from the end of the
Beaver creek railroad. The company
also has claims adjoining the ANA
zon- Manhattan. Mr.. Smith says the
Dreadnaught vein is easily traceable
for distance Of 5000 feet, and on the
opposite side of the creek the outcrop
Another and larger vein is exposed
crossing the creek, having a course
almost east and west and which ap-
parently intersects the vein that is
being developed about 15O feet east of
the ore just encountered. Mr.. Smith
says this vein is fully SO feet WIDE

Succession of Defeats.

After securing a bond on the St
erland, owners, of this city, Mr.. Lam
caster rebonded the property to An
drew Laidlaw, Inc, of Spokane, Mr..
Lancaster remaining in charge of the
mine. He remained on the job during
the winter of 1851, although Laid
law, Inc. failed to meet the current
expenses. Failing also to make the
payment due on March 1, 1917, Mr..
Lancaster soon thereafter resumed
possession of the st. Lawrence under
his original bond, and began ore ship
ments as soon as the weather permit
ted that year Later in the summer
Laidlaw, Inc. evidently woke up to the
fact that he had let a good thing slip
by him, so he started an action in the
Spokane court to restrain Lancaster
from further operation of the property
and restore his rights under the bond
This action upon hearing was thrown
out of court. Similar proceedings were
then started in the district court of
Mineral county, only to meet the same
fate so far as the injunction was con-
cerned when submitted to Judge Dun
can in Missoula. The case just tried
in Superior was an attempt to restore
the rights of Laidlaw, Inc. under his
bond, and the verdict means that he
has lost all rights through failure to
comply with the terms of the bond.
Strong Company.
Since regaining possession of the
st Lawrence Mr.. Lancaster has or
ganized strong company in which
Pittsburg capitalists are heavily in
terested, and plans for extensive de-
velopment and operation of the mine
are being carried out. A lower tun-
mel has been run during the past win
ter which is now due to cut the vein
and 1t is expected that shipments will
soon begin and be made on a larger
