Wedekind Mine Ore At Reno Reduction Plant District Formed
Ten tons of ore from the Wedekind mine are being worked at the Reno reduction plant. A Reno mining district is organized as the Wedekind district. In 1898 mica imports were 1 455 263 dollars while home production was 129 250 dollars. William Mc Dermott, a close friend of W A Clark, is expected soon to take over Reno district mines. A gold discovery at Topkuk Beach, fifty miles south of Nome, yields miners about a thousand dollars daily per claim. Rumors of a final sale of the Silver Peak property to John W Mackay are denied, yet a purchase by the big miner may come soon.
