We are much pleased to laarn that the
above named organization is on the boom, and that the stock i3 being largely taken
by our own enterprising citizensi The
capital slock is $100,000, divided in shares
of $100 each, a considerable portion of
which lias been already taken Dy capital
ists at Chicago, Boston, and by our own citizens. The lund is situated neir Stines-
ville, Monroe co., Ind., 4,ooo feet distant from the Ij. N. A. & 0. railway, and about two miles from tha I. & V. railroad. The land consists of twenty acres, all limestone
and Indiana marble, extensively used all ovc-r the State of Indiana, for the past
tliirty-hve yr-ars, ana tor beauty ana aurability cannot be excelled. Ex-Staiu Geologist Uollct says : "This is the best stone I ever saw. The ledges are from ferty to sixty feat thick, easy of access, no stripping, and nil overlaid by a thick ledge of Indiana marble. These
quarries have been in operation about
tmrty-nve years, ana tne supply is aosolutely inexhnustable. That it is a mine of untold wealth cannot tor a single moment be doubted, and all that is needed is capital to develop it." This we think will be found in the new company now organizing. Some of the stock will bo on the market here for a few days at a low figure, giving our citizens nn opportunity to invest before the stock is all taken by foreign capitalists. These quarries are now owned by J. S. Williams, who for many years past bos boon engaged in tho stone business, and has found that it requires capital to run tho business, and he bus therefore' adopted tho usual plan in this class ol business of incorporating under tho statutes of Indiana, and has already had all tho necessary papers made out and will have the stock not already taken, put upon the market this week.
