Tha Ore at Ranches to Be Cut TJp
for Small Farmera
Large Syndicate Has Been Formed to
Control the Land Holdings Home
Particulars of the Mam
moth Deal.
A syndicate has been formed to pur
chase and place on the market over a
dozen of the largest and most valuable
ranches in northern California. AH
arrangements for closing the deal have
been perfected, and within a few days
all the papers required to bind the
holders of the vast tracts of land to the
termseof the transfer will be drawn up
and signed. From present indications
the syndicate will close with 153,000
acres, though it is probable that an ad
ditional 10,000 of the Cone ranch may
be admitted into the deal. All this prop-
rty, which is now owned and culti
vated by a few wealthy men, will be cut
up into small ranches of 20 and 40 acres
and be improved with dwellings and
outhouses. When the vast acreage of
the syndicate land is taken into con
sideration, and the fact that the land
has a frontage of 74 mijes on the west
bank of the Sacramento, besides a large
frontage on the east bank, the colossal
extent of the big land deal will be
readily apparent.
Arrangements are not completed as
to the Cone property, as it is notdeflnite-
ly known whether the original offer
of the Cone estate of 3,000 acres will be
upplemented with an additional 10,000
acres. Arrangements have been com
pleted for the transfer of 153,000 acres.
The most important holdings in the list
are as follows: On the west side of the
Sacramento river Boggs, 12,400 acres;
Glenn, 41,500 acres; Chambers, 20,000
acres; Imnell, 20,000 acres; Tyler,
2,000 acres; Hamstreet, 1,500 acres;
Hart, 1,500 acres; Itawson, 4,741 acres;
on the east side of the river llevis
grant, 8,000 acres; Bid well, 7,000 acres;
Cone, 3,000 acres; Wilson, 3,500 acres.
These are the principal holdings, and
they are interspersed with smaller hold
ings of 1,000 acres and less.
Mr. Chambers, who has placed 20,000
acres in the syndicate, is a prominent
capitalist of St. Louis. His agent and
attorney in fact is John Finnell, who
has put an equal amount of land into the
pool. To expedite the work of dividing
the big holdings into small improved
ranches, and thus attract settlers to
California, a corporation will be formed,
to which all the lands enumerated will
be deeded eventually. The sale of the
stock of the corporation will be used to
pay the owners for their property,
though many of the owners have sig
nihed their willingness to take the pur
chase price of their land, in part, at
least, in Btock. Then the plan will be
to subdivide the land into classes
Lands are to be offered at prices that
will represent their relative value, and
whntever surplus is derived above the
cost to the corporation will be distrib
uted to the purchasers of the land when
the first subdivision of 10,000 acres is
closed out. The object is to sell the
land at a very low figure, it being the
ultimate and paramount object of all
interested to st-cure a subdivision and
occupation of the country by actual
settlers. San Francisco Chronicle,
