MRS M'KINLEY'S MINE
Gold Found Oa a Property Which She
inherited.
Canton, Ohio (Special) —There is
wealth ia sight for Mrs. McKinley and
her sister, Mrs. M. C. Barber, of this
sity. Eastern capitalists have a short.
time option on mining claims held by
these two ladies in Nevada. The price
st which the claims will poss into the
hands of the syndicate has net been
definitely stated for the public, but it
in gleaned from an authontative source
that it is near $225.000.
Some 20 years ago there was a com-
pany formed here known as the Canton
fining Company. This company pur-
chased claims in Nevada, near Ely. The
claims, 17 in all. were finally purchased
by James A. Saxton. At his death
they passed into the hands of his
daughters, Mrs. McKinley and Mrs.
Barber. Recently gold has been founda
on the claims in great quantities.
