McKINLEY's sILvER HINES.

The Presfdens InseSested I'm white
Pine Properties.
Bert L. Smith, who intended return.
Ing TO Eureka next week, has decided
to remain in San Francisco until the
latter part Of the month, having
received . telegram from President Nc.
Kinley asking him, if be could convent.
emily do so, TO meet him in the city on his,
the Presidents, arrival about May IA.
so that he might consult with him re-
garding some mining interests Of Mrs.
McKinley's in White Pine county.
After the Republican National Con-
vention Ut 81. Louis in 1900 had I'd.
journed, Oscar j. Smith and P. L. Flsni.
gan, delegates from Nevada 81 this con-
v~ention, went over to Canton, Ohio, and
called IN President Mckinley. During
their visit the President asked these
gentlemen about Nevada, and inquired If
they were familiar with the country near
Ely. in White Pine county. Mr.. Smith
informed him of White Pines promis-
ing mineral resources and incidentally
told the President about his interest in
the Rocco omestske mine at Hamilton,
In that county, the best producing min
ing property in the district.
Mr.. Mckinley then proceeded to in
form his visitors about three patented
mines near Ely, which his wife had &C.
CURED through an estate. Before taking
his leave Of the President Mr.. Smith in
formed him that on returning to his
home in Nevada be would make inquiry
regarding the property and let him
know the result Of his Investigation.
On his arrival home. Mr.. Smith 1t once
referred the matter to his brother, Bert
L.'Smith Of Eureka, who, we understand.
has since had considerable correspond.
ence with Mr.. Mckinley regarding the
property.
The property comprises three mines.
each Of which 10 patented. The Elijah.
relocated by John Steele. who still has
possession; the Saxton (the maiden name
Of the Presidents wifs). 10 also in pos

The other, the Autumn, the most i'm.
portant Of the claims, and the only ONE
Of the three NOT in adverse possession oil

Chairman property. 1t will be remem-
bered that this mine wal recently sold
for $3.50, 900 to an Eastern company,
which is about to commence operations
on . large scale. Considerable develop.
ment work has been done on the Ault.
man, which is . silver-lead mine, and il
is generally considered . very valuable
property. In view Of the investment oil
Eastern capital in the Chairman and the
promise of the active development Of
