Martin Conway, one of the owners,
In wpenklng of the sale to a repre

Is in receipt of a telegram from Dick
Kennedy in which the latter says that
the second installment of the purchase
price has been paid.
The property in question embraces
thirteen and one half copper locations
and include the MaUJ of Kiln, Kliee,
Victoria and Spokane claims on all of
which considerable development Work
has been done and all have shown a
reitnarkable value for the amount of
work done.
The purchasers are New York peo
ple and ipy the payment of the second
installment the suhstanti/il payment
af $10,00(1 has been paid over and this
fact indicates that a honiftde sale has

Kor a dozen or more years past this
property has almost yearly been tied
up by working l>onds of options of sulr
anil development has been hampered
and .retarded by lack of transportation
facilities.
Several times in the past it has look
ed as If the property would be taken
over by prominent men In the copper
world, but the distance from tide water
and lack of transportation have been
stumbling blocks, |jut now with the
price of copper at the high mark and
with the improvement in auto-truck
transportation, the ore can he moved
to tidewater and still have a linnd
I some profit for the operator.
Substantial shipments of Itainy Hol
low ore have been made from time to
time, the ore being hauled out in wag
ons but even with this primitive mode
I of transportation, the .shipments have
showed a net profit.
I Haines is to be congratualted on the
i sale of th’s property, as it will un
doubtedly be the cause of the copper
men of the country looking further
j into Hie Itainy Hollow district jfnd
this group of claims is but a portion
of the rich mineral ground adjacent
to them. It will mean that the open
ing up of the first mentioned group
of claims will bring about a resuinp
