The Mary McKinney mine is situated on the south side of Squaw Gulch, opposite the town of Anaconda. Adjacent mines are the Anaconda and Peggy on the north, the Morning Glory and Doctor-Jackpot on the east, and the Katinka and Aileen on the south. The property comprises the Mary McKinney, Mary McKinney No. 2, Republic, Mayflower, Le Clair, and Thurlow claims, and covers about 34 acres. It is owned by the Mary McKinney Company, of Colorado Springs, incorporated in 1892, and capitalized at ,000,000. Up to the beginning of 1889 the mine was worked by lessees, the first shipment of ore being in 1893. Early in 1899 the company began operations on its own account, and erected the present shaft house. The first dividend was declared in October of the same year."
I found some info on this company at Mindat which stated, "
The Pharmacist mine, on the claim of that name, is situated at the west end of the town of Altman and is owned by the Pharmacist Consolidated Mining Company. One of the earliest mines to be opened on Bull Hill, it attracted much attention by being the first to declare a dividend. The production up to January 1, 1900, was 0,000, and of that amount ,000 has been paid in dividends. Only small amounts have been produced since that date."
