Day-Smith Case Against Hecla Backs Down After Settlement
The Day-Smith suit against Hecla and Bunker Hill suffered a major setback as Star and Federal parties settled their disputes. A $350,900 payment for ore removed from Star property settled claims of its value and dismissed challenges to Star’s title. The case now centers on whether Hecla can hold stock in another company under Washington law, with fraud charges dropped.

Mining in 1dang district shows renewed activity and progress
State mine inspector TEWART CAMPBELL reports broad revival in Idaho mining during 1921 with old mines restarting and new development. Highlights include the Featherville dredge, English group at Atlanta, Idaho Gold Corp tunnel work, and rising output at Bunker Hill, Sullivan, and Wood River districts.

Settlement Ends Four Year Mining Dispute In Idaho
The Star Mining company and the Federal Mining and Smelting company reached a out of court settlement after nearly four years of litigation before Judge F. S. Deitrich in Coeur d Alene. The Federal will pay Star 360000 in full settlement and relinquish all claims to the disputed ground, plus an option for 90000 on the Iron Crown and part of the Grouse claim for 100000. The arrangement unifies ground connected to the vein and ends a long, costly case likely to have gone to appeal.
