MILLIONS FOR COAL LAND.
Great Coal Tract in Indiana County VIII
be Taken Up at Last.


The Indiana correspondent to the
Pittsburg Dispatch, under date Of
March 2s, says Five hundred Indiana
county farmers will be made happy
within the next fortnight by the receipt
OF notices that their coal holdings.
totaling 10000 acres, will be taken up
May l. This means the distribution OF
about S2,500,000, the withdrawal Of
appeals in 100 suits asking annulments
OF options and the developments of a
vast tract of territory which has been
tied up by the recent financial string
ency and consequent litigations.
1t is almost three years since Colonel
John McGaughey, Of Indiana, acting
for Eastern capitalists, secured options
on the greater part of the 10000 acres
which lie in Blacklick, Center, Young,
Conemaugh and Burrell townships in
Indiana county and South Bend town
ships, Armstrong county.
1t was taken up at $40 per acre and
two or three sets of purchasers have
been after it. Finally b. Z. Cartwright,
e. d. Carter, w. H. Stamey and J. C.
King secured control OF the entire field
through option made by means of
powers OF attorney. For months the
farmers waited patiently for some
sight of the $40 per acre, and then, as
other purchasers were seeking the coal.
they tried to terminate the powers of
attorney, only to find that these docu-
ments were drawn in such way as to
prevent any such action
Angered at the fact that they were
unable TO sell their land, although
offered even higher prices than $40 per
acre, the farmers banded together and
entered over 100 suits to terminate the
powers of attorney and options. Judge
White decided in their favor, but the
syndicate appealed to the Supreme
Court, where the cases have not vet
come to argument.
