It was announced yesterday the: Shutt property, south of the Temiskaming mine, has been finally coralled by financiers. Several offers for the claim have been refused, but the offer of the Ophir Mines company was 'acceptable and this valuable pro- perty has now passed into the hands of this corporation. "The officers of the Ophir. Mines company carry con- viction. They are: President, H, H. Lang, mayor of Cobalt, and vice- president. of the City of Cobalt Min- ing company; vice-president, B., W, Leysongsuperintendent of the City of Cobalt Mining company, manager of the Cobalt Townsite company, and consulting engineer of the Nancy- Helen Mining company; secretary- treasurer, E. owe, Cobalt; di- rectors, James A.

The company has no in- tention of putting the property for- ward as anything mord than a pros- pect at present, but it is assumed rom those who have allied them- selves with - the company that the claim will ultimately develop into one of the producing mines. of the Temiskaming district. .
