Senator Clark Builds Unmatched Empire From Maine to California
The Pittsburg Dispatch profiles Senator William A. Clark of Montana as a self-made industrial titan, owning granite quarries in Maine, vast ranches in California and Mexico, mines and banks in Montana, railways, newspapers, and leather of diversified holdings. It claims no other man matches his span and control, with an annual income around eight million and wealth estimates from sixty to one hundred fifty million, all earned without stock gambles.
