W. P. H. Mine During 1904
The W. P. H., on Ironclad Hill, is a good illustration of the results of the leasing system in 1904. This lease, now expired, has been one of the notable shippers of the year, both in tonnage and in the remarkable tenor of the ore.
graphic for visual presentation of text Prospecting was inspired by the temporary success of the Damon and Jerry Johnson several years ago, in territory adjoining to the south and in the same somewhat complex system of small intersecting fissures at or near the contact of the volcanic body of the district with the older granite.
graphic for visual presentation of text It is also an additional suggestion that the richest ore deposits of Cripple Creek are usually found along the periphery of the volcano, where the country is most intricately fissured.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text The W. H. P. produced in 1904 a higher average grade of ore than ever before mined from any single property in Cripple Creek during a similar period.

W. P. H. Lease Case at District Court
W. P. H. LITIGATION.
graphic for visual presentation of text——————
graphic for visual presentation of text The District Court at Cripple Creek refused to order that five-eighths of the proceeds of the famous W. P. H. lease be paid into court pending the result of litigation started by Charles Wider.
graphic for visual presentation of text Wider's claim, briefly stated, is to the effect that he entered into an equal one-third co-partnership with Seiver and Harrison, August, 1902; that, by the terms of the agreement, which was not reduced to writing, each was to share alike in all transactions entered into by any of the partners; that Wider stood his share of the cost of certain lawsuits in which the Jerry Johnson lease and others became involved; that he was forced to leave for New Mexico and Arizona on account of ill health, and that while there he remained faithful to his partners, causing them to share alike with him in all property acquired in those states.
graphic for visual presentation of text It is further affirmed by Wider and his attorney that his alleged partners discovered that the ore shoot from the Jerry Johnson dipped into the W. P. H. and that they deceitfully concealed that fact from him.
graphic for visual presentation of text In support of the case of the defendants, their attorney urged before the District Court that the plaintiff had plainly stated himself out of court. The co-partnership was admitted to have been one at will, and was plainly terminated by the dissent of any of the parties thereto. All the parties must have engaged in actual mining operations, continuously, whereas it was admitted by the plaintiff that he left the camp and remained away for a period of nine months.

The mine closed for the holidays, December 24th, 25th and 26th, and on the 27th the lessees, working at a point about 100 feet west of the shaft, shot into the rich ore.
graphic for visual presentation of text Fearing annoyance and theft, very little was said about the discovery, and for the first time to-day the newspaper men were permitted to view the strike and given the full particulars.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text There is one sad feature to the story of the discovery. On December 9th one of the Mueller brothers, the original lessees, was mangled and instantly killed by an explosion caused by picking a missed shot. At that time the unfortunate miner was working within a few feet of the bonanza which was to bring fortunes to his relatives and associates. His interest is now held by his brother.
