~ KLONDYKE,
Montreal-Londen Gola and Silver Company,
In another column of to-day’s Examiner will be found the advertisement of the Montreal London Gold and Silver Develop ment Company, Limited, which has been formed for the purpose of acquiring and working claims in the golden north. This company, we understand is the first syndicate formed in Canada and already they have despatched an expedition to the gold fields of the Klondyke. The Company has among its officers and directors some othe leading meu of Canada and has beeu doing a rushing business. Acvording to the Montreal Scar $300,000 is understood to be now eubscribed. The object of the expedition sen, oat a short time ago is to explore and locate claims in the Klondike and the tributaries of the Yukon and mine them, and also to buy up desirable claims. The Company’s engineer, Mr. Bernard McDonald, is a man of 25 years experience among the mines of America, and he is admitted to be at the head of his profes- sion. It is now conceded that the Montreal London Company is the strongest and most Jegitimate mining company operating in Canada. Messrs. Clarence J. McCuaig & Co., Brokers, of Montreal, are the man- agersofthe company. For further par- ticulars apply to Mr. James J. Johnston, Barrister, Charlottetown, who is the agent for P, E. Island.
