IT'S stipulated that the plant IL TO
cos, not less than 100000, and thc
refinery to have capacity OF not less
than Is tons per day.
This outpu. Is more than double that
Of the Durango smeltor, which can

hnefy will use this amount and look
Tor the rest from the north and from
this locality.

Iine contract 10 now being put Into
tyne, and will not be made public until

the site for the refinery IN determined
upon. Mr.. Green has probably made
up his mind as to the location, but has
not informed tho committee. lie
stated that lie would send, today, the
description OF the land Tor tho works,
NO that We could PUT II into the contract,
and nave everything ready.
"Looking ut the plans, think that
the cost will 40 considerably over
100000. The building proposed Will
cost a big sum, outside OF machinery.
As to when they start, MIR. Stallman
informed US they would 90 right on.
lie said they were under net daily
loss Of 500 by having 10 ship their
copper matte, etc, to Connecticut TO be
refined, the charges there aud freight
rates being high. At those figures, II
they run 800 days n year, the refinery
Will save them S2lO,UOO u year"
"What bonusmen does Nj. Green
oiiiei2"
''NNsll, there nre both Denver and
Salt Lake men. One whom he named
was Otto Meeara OF the Rio Grande
railway. There IL no doubt that II the
agreement IN kept IL will be gool
thing for this part, and the 100000
will prove good Investment. Every
thing seems straight sailing now."
Other members of the board were
seen and all expressed themselves IN
satisfied that Mr.. Green and his asso.
ciates were willing, and fully able to do
all they promised. They ,elieve now
that there Ia not the slightest cause for
doubt or uneasiness, but that the
proposition 10 genuine, and means
business from the start. Even those
who were doubtful for time have
come round TO be staunch supporters
u Mr.. Green, and believe that Salt
Lake will have no cause to regret
placing the bonus OF 100000 and 100
acres OF land where 1t lie.
