Three hundred thousand dollars is the sum estimated to be the cost of the protracted litigation between the Centre Star and Iron Mask companies, which was terminated last night out of court by an agree- ment among the parties at interest.. The now famous case, was begun in October, 1897. Mr. Durant, who then owned the Centre Star mining claim began action against the lron Mask company, and se- cured an injunction. This injunc- tion was continued by Mr. Justice’ Lawton, but was subsequently varied by the full court. In January, 1898, an action was begun by the Iron Mask against the Centre Star. The subject matter of these two actions was practically the same, viz., as to the right of the Centre Star to assert extra lateral rights within the Iron Mask mineral .. claim, The matter came vefore the courts on many occasions upon the application of the Centre Star to do work on the Iron Mask claim. The action came on in this city in April, 1898. After sitting for fouatesn days the trial was adjourned indefi- nitely, and it was not till this‘sum- mer that a date, viz., September 17, was fixed for continuance of the trial. : A large number of the most emi- nent mining men in America had either given evidence or were re- tained to give evidence at the ap- proaching trial. After the litigation had been in progress for more than a year, the Cantre Star Messrs. Gooderham and Blackstock who subsequently transferred it to its present owners. The legal gen- tlemen connected with the trial from the beginning for the Iron Mask were E. V. Bodwell, Q. C. and A, H. MacNeill, Q. C., and for the Centre Star, T. Mayne Daly, Q. C. and E. P.
