The Mckinley Mines.

During the past week Secretary Dix
w. Smith of the Chairman company
and Prof. F. A. Richmond of Elmira
College have been devoting their time
to the examining of the claims of the
Canton Mining Company, DIETER
known at the present time as the Nc
Kinley mines) lying within short dis
lance to the west and north of this
place, and will continue the work until
all the properties, eighteen in number,
have been inspected. This work is be-
ing done Systematically, samples being
taken from each of the properties as
examined, and these are carefully as
sayed by Prof. Richmosd, the re-
suit of which assay will be preserved in
proper form for the inspection OF the
parties interested in the company now
being formed.
While several OF the claims have been
sampled thus far, the Saxton is the
only one from which assays have been
made, and these show exceedingly good
values, one going as high as $I16.57 in
gold, another S87, and still another $73,
while the average for the entire shaft,
leaving out the rich samples here men
toned, was SIS to the ton. These sam
pies were taken from the shaft sunk
this season by w. G. Lyons under the
-, ! ~, Is
adjoining location, but which a later
survey showed to be fifty-one feet over
on Saxton ground. In the develop
ment Of this property. which is to be
commenced at once, the plan is to sink
a shaft at this point to depth OF 2oc
feet before beginning to crosscut, after
which the other gold claims will be de
veloped-White Pine News.

Reduction Plant For Carson.

The News learns of scheme on foot
that might mean a great deal to Car
son. Without doubt the biggest min
ing proposition in the whole state of
Nevada at the present time, is the new
camp of Tonopah The ore from tina,
group of mines is being shipped to San
Francisco where it is sampled and then
reshipped to Seattle for reduction in
the smelter there.
1t is far from probable that an extern
sive milling plant can ever be located
at Tonopah on account of the scarcity
of water and fuel, although improve
ment in transportation facilities will al
low the shipment of what is now con-
sidered low grade ore.
It is now proposed to construct re-
duction works and a smelter on the
Carson river where water power can be
had and where coal can be dumped off
the cars into the bins of the plant with
out further transfer.
Carson river is the nearest point to
Tonopah where power for milling pur-
poses can be had along the railroad,
and there apears to be absolutely no
reason why the ores from this camp and
others tributary to the c. & c. should
not be worked in Empire. There will
be considerable saving in freight rates
and the bullion will not have to be ship
ped any further, as it can be turned
into the United States Mint here.
incidentally the receipt of large guam
ties OF bullion would greatly assist the
| friends OF the Carson Mint in getting
it restored to its former activity.
| Also the Comstock mines are ship
ping considerable ore to California for
reduction, that could could be worked
more cheaply here.
Such reduction plant as is contem,
plated would mean great deal for this
section Of the country and it affords a
safe investment for capital, which will
probably be taken advantage Of in a
short time, if current rumor is based
upon anything.-News.

Mansfield o., June 24.-The board Of

completion of the wall around the in

cause of annoyance and trouble to the
officials of anything that has come up

at price several thousand dollars less
than the numerous low bids previously
received, but with alterations and
changes, the guaranteeing Of certain
bills, the paying of various bills by the
managers and the certainty that more
will be paid in addition to the Often
changed plans it is probable that the
final cost of the wall will be far in ex-
cess of the higher bids at the outset
At nearly every meeting of the board
since the awarding of the contract
several years ago the wall controversy
has been up for discussion and at the
meeting last week Contractor Kam-
macher and his Columbus attorney had
protracted session with the board and

The fire was undoubtedly Of incen-
diary origin and an investigation to
discover the author is being made. At
the point where the fire started large
straw tick had been set on fire and there
was unmistakable evidence to those
who reached the interior first that oil
had been literally used to give the
flames a start. The theatre has been
unoccupied for six weeks. Not over
ten minutes before the discovery of the
fire. neighbors living on the east side
of the building heard some one prowl-
ing around the rear and then running
away, and Mrs. Danner, living in the
building adjoining on the west side,
claims to have seen some man lighting
matches in the building earlier in the
evening.
The fire was discovered by passer-

The key of the patrolman on that beat

little time had been lost, the alarm was
sent in over the telephone from the
Phoenix hotel. Central responded and
1t was at once seen that the fire was go

Skies and Twos were also called. An
hours hard fight from all sides Of the
building followed before the flames
were under control
The fire was started in stairway on
the west side of the building, back Of
the barroom and between it and the
theatre portion. 1t made its way to the
rear and up the stairway, and in very
little time had enyeloped the walls and
dome of the auditorium. The rear of
the theatre is of frame and the walls
and ceiling burned like tinder. Control
of it was gained. however, before the
walls were eaten through. The inter-
ior is, however. badly burnt and practi-
cally a total loss. In the brick por-
tion in the front the damage was main

SUFFERED LITTLE DAMAGE.
The contents of the building were

weeks, on account of proceedings to

popularity anu patronage and is said
to have done very little business.

morning that he held the title to the
property but knew little of 1t as 1t had
been bought as an investment and he
