ASH PEAK DISTRI,


Mr.. Charles L. Fleming, who is at
the head of the company which now
owns the recently discovered and enor-
nous gold mines north of Tucson,
ATiz., was at the Raleigh yesterday,
says the Washington Post.
"Our property" said Mr. Fleming
last evening, can best be described to
one not thoroughly familiar with min
ing as follows: The mines are three
month. Old. The company has 500, 900
in cash with which to work them.
No part OF the mine and not share OF
the stock of the company are for sale.
Three careful estimates place the val
ue OF the gold actually in sight OF the
naked eye at $27 900, 900 and Ve haven't
a dollar of indie ebtedness.
The mines lie about seventy miles
north of Tucson, in Graham county.
Gold was first discovered there by Jack
Gardin, an old California miner. We
purchased his and few other claims,
in all fifteen for $3.50. 900. Our big dis
covery was made in October and at
hat time the papers all over the coun-
try printed big stories about us, espec-
tally the western papers. Our discov-
"ry was simply this: a vein OF gold
200 feet wide, with an outlet of about
5000 feet. A canyon about POO to 800
feet deep cuts straight through the
vein, and it is in the sides OF this can
yon that the gold can be seen. The
walls are solid with ore, which, we
have discovered, will run from 81 to
300 a ton.
"Gardin's discovery was called the
Red Bird, and was made the day Nc
Kinley was iraugurated, March !.
We bought the property in Septem
When Garden made his find there
was not a man within twenty miles of
he spot. Now there are over 1000 peo- |

and easily worked, being soft, it wa. q
veritable bonanza. Al the time OF the
sale the owners OF the property were
deeply in debt everywhere, and they
owed. what few miners they worked
considerable sums of money. The Con-
tention was sold as dead horse, :"
that is to say it was sacrificed to save
the others. With the money thus ob-
tained tho T. NJ. & NJ. company were
put on their feet, and as they had es-
tablished reputation as square men
they had no difficulty afterwards in
getting what they wanted.
