Show MERGES LEASE III DUE WITH RICH ORE Attractive Seven -Troughs Work Being Watched for Results at Any Hour. Reports from Seven Troughs state that the Merger lease 011 tho property of the Seven Troughs Therein company is closely reaching tho hour when it will bo tho strongest rival the Harris lcaso will have to contend with iu that blooming Nevadn mining camp. The Merger lease, from the start, has been in the limelight, owing to its splendid location and from tho surface showiugs. The lcaso is located between the vi-huja vi-huja and Ken can leases, the latter being on the Mazuma Hills territory, across the gulfli from the Therein group. In starting shaft sinking the Merger management rau upon a vein within seven feet of tho surface, there being fourteen inches of pure quartz averaging $94. to the ton in gold. Ou the seventy foot levcel the same vein was showing high-grado rock, but the shaft was sent on to the "'.!," foot level without prospecting above that point. Ou Wednesday it was reported that at 12."i feet Ihc water level had been gained, and that flic management was cross-cuttiu" to the west to tap this same vein. This cross-cut hns proceeded through thirty, feet of rock that shows gold by panning, and tho cutiro distance dis-tance may bo of a milling character. When tho vein, however, is gained, the camp expects ono more spectacular leasing proposition to be boru, and which will tend to emphasize tho real merits of the Seven Troughs camp to the outside world. And this first vein is expected to mako its appearance at practically any shift now. Ncvadas in San Francisco. James A. Pollock & Co.. bankers and brokers.
