GREAT sIvER TRUST.
Project to obtain Control of the En-
tire Silver Product.

Denver. Nov. 1S.-The Rocky Noun
tain News to-day says that syndi-
cate is schcming to obtain control Of
the silver market and dictate the price
of the metal to all silver using coun-
tries. A conference was held in this
city this week, it is said, at which
were present Daniel Guggenheim of
New York, Mcssrs. Barton and Nash
of Omaha, Mr.. Hanaur of Salt Lake
and Mr.. Allen. of the Philadelphia
Smelling and Refining company at
Pueblo, and representatives of the To-
cal smelters and the leading silver pro-
dNcing mines. Two reports are cur
rent as to the details of the proposed
plan. One is thai syndicate backed
by John D. Rockefeller and the Roths-
childs will sustain control of all the
smelters in the United States and
Mexico, and arbitrarily fix the price
of silver, regardless of the supply and
demand. The proposition was made,
so it is stated. that the smelters should
be taken at an appraised valuation
equivalent to cost. This was to be paid
in cash. Then each was to have
proportionate block of stock in the new
deal.

st. Paul, Nov. 1S.-Serious charges
are brought against S. Douglas Ryan
in the action brought against him by
the Minnesota & Ontario Lumber com.
pany. The defendant, it is alleged,

the company, and it is claimed that
while in his control he did, between
March, 1888, and August, 1892, receive
moneys from the company's business
asgregating over 100000, which he
converted to his own use. The plain
tiifs claim they are certain that $50
600 has been Incorporated, and say
they believe 100000 has been taken
possession Of by Mr.. Ryan. 1t is fur
Their claimed that he has caused false
and improper entries to be made in
the company's books in order to throw
off the blame, and that he has re-
ceived large sums, for which he has
made no account whatever upon the
books. In the latter way the plain
tiffs say they believe Mr.. Ryan has
nlisappropriated 100000.
