BIG GUNS ARRIVING DAILY
Men Prominent in the Financial
World Visit C0ldfield.

Thos King, ex-president of the Balti
more and Ohio railroad, and Il. II. Rush
ton, president of the Fourth Street Ma
tional bank, accompanied General Agent
Oddie and Superint tendent Keith of the
Tonopah Mining company, on visit to
Goldfeld yesterday. These gentlemen,
who are very prominent in the financial
world, are both directors in the Tonopah
railroad and interested in the Tonopah
Mining company which owns the famous
Mizpah group of mines. Their visit is
not only for the purpose of seeing Gold
fields mines and prospects, but also to
look into the railroad situation. While
nothing is being given out officially, it is
almost certainty that Goldtield will
have railroad by the first of the year.
Both gentlemen were very much
pleased with what they saw in Goldtield.
Mr.. Rushton said on coming back from
the mines: You have most wonderful
country here. 1t is really startling to
see the amount of gold panned from a
small piece of rock"

came as a shock to the community, for
although she was known to be seriously
i'll, she was believed to be improving.
Mrs. Wadleigh came to Goldfeld from
Denver with her husband some three
months ago, and during her residence
here had endeared herself to the people
by many acts of neighborly kindness.
The news of her death will also be re-
ceived with sorrow in Denver, where she
was prominent socially.
The funeral services were private, after
which Mr.. Wadleigh left with the body
for Denver, where the interment will
take place. He has the sympathy of the
entire district in his affliction.

Smith. Fuller and Sanders are sinking

They have put up a windlass and will
sink 81 feet before drifting.
Graham Bros have sold the Pearl City
group of 13 claims to NJ. G.. Scully and
NJ. G. Hutchinson of San Francisco. This
group lies less than half mile east of
Columbia mountain and it is probaple
that the purchasers will form stock
company t" develop the property.
w. H. Harris. one of the successful
pioneers of the district. has sold the Red
Lion group of five claims to John E.
Lutz, of San Francisco. These claims
lie about one mile southeast of Milltown.
They will be surveyed at once and active
development begun. The deal was made
by the w. s. Williams Company.

last Sunday with samples from claims

& Gomory. the former being his brother
Mr.. Mcmillan was greatly impressed
with the mineral resources of Goldtield
and as he is an old time mining man, it
is probable ne will return and take an ac-
tive part in its development.

work will begin on the company's prop

placed in San Francisco, which will pro-

The Cache Gold Mining company of
Goldfield, Nevada, will soon be incor
porated to develop group of five CLAIMS
about four miles southeast of the Jumbo,
on which there is al excellent showing.
Float going over $4,000 per ton has been
found on one of the claims owned by the
proposed company, and it is confidently
believed that intelligent prospecting will
result in finding valuable mines in this,
so far, neglected section.

The ridge of the Jumbo will soon be as
crowded with lessees and employees as was the
Mizpah in the early days of Tonopah. And
the values being found all along the claim beat
the great old Mizpah a city block. Through
the courtesy of Harry Ramsey we have re-

by Thos. Price & Son, of San Francisco, which
showed that piece of ore from the Kernick
and Bowes' lease went So1,31462 per ton in
gold. The assay was made for Philadelphia
man who probably wished to have his local
assays proven by outsiders.
Price & Son note the following on the bot
tom or their certificate: "In other words, the

ton similar to the 36 grammes left with us
would yield 1854 pounds of pure gold"
