COLORADO RUBBER
COrlPANY FORMED

Colorado Springs. Colo, Feb. O.
Denver, Colorado Springs and eastern
capitalists are interested in the forma-
ton Of rubber company, for the pur-
pose Of utilizing the newly discovered
Colorado rubber plant" the name
given to the commodity by the United
States bureau in charge of such af-
fairs.
The American Crude Rubber Com
pany was organized to-day in the of
fees of the Portland Gold Mining Com
pany The capital stock is fixed at
s1,00O,o 900. divided into 10000 shares Of
par value of 500 each. The incor-
porators are Frank G. Peck of this
city and F. r. Marsh and M. G. Brown
ell of Denver, who will also serve as
directors for the first year, together
with c. V. Turner and WI. Chinn, both
of Colorado Springs. These gentlemen,
together with eastern capitalists, are
financing the project. Messrs. Peck
and Turner are closely connected with
the Portland company, the former be-
ing secretary and treasurer of the or
ganization.' He is also a brother-in-
law Of j. f. Burns, president and prac.
tical owner of the company. Mr.. Chinn
is a member of the local law firm of
Gunnell, Chinn C Miller.
Large plants will be erected in Colo
RADIO Springs and Denver soon. Spe-
cal machinery will be made for the
purpose of manufacturing commercial
rubber out of the plant.
The rubber plant is found to be pc
culiarly adapted to high attitudes. Ac-
cording to tests made in the laborato-
,rIes of Colorado College, where the
plant was first taken for examination,
it was found to contain Ills per cent
pure rubber. this proportion including
the entire plant, roots and flower. Lat
er tests at Denver proved that even
inferior plants run ten per cent. rub
Der.
The quality is good, ranking with the
average grades, and bearing the pro-
portion Of 20 to 100 to the finest quail
!ity Of imported rubber. The demand
is practically unlimited.
The plant resembles sagebrush, and
Is commonly known as rabbit brush"
1t grows about sixteen inches high and
has an equal proportion of root and
top. The root contains the greater
percentage of pure rubber. The plant
bears a small yellow blossom. grows
from the seed. and dies after two
years.
The company has obtained patents
from the United States and other gov
ernments.

TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED
BALTIMORE BUILDINGS BURNED.

the front remains. Entire blocks just
below there are wiped out.
From Fayette street, down Holiday
street, as far as German street, there is
no building left save the Corn and
Flour Exchange, at the corner of Ger
man street That building whose walls
tower above hecrumbling debris of what
were adjoining structures, was Quilted
and the standing walls formed a caul-
dron, the flames of which burst at
times through the windows, but caused
no further damage. In numerous 9th
err wrecked buildings the flames played
about the debris and threatened to
weaken the foundations of the few
walls that were left.
Like a grim tower in the ruins stand
the walls of the fifteen-story Continent
al Trust Company building. The walls of
the Baltimore & Ohio building are also
standing. but the Pennsylvania rail-
road building, directly across Calvert
street, is RACED. Only remnants of one
wall are left at what was the National
hotel at Holiday and Fayette streets.
No buildings are left standing as far
as the eye can see down Baltimore
street from this poNlt All along South
Gay street there is the same picture of
destruction. A broken sign and tot
tering front wall show where the Mary
land w. C. T. U. building once stood.
Adjoining this was the building oc-
cupied by the Iron Ship Company and
by the British consulate, whose build
ing is complete loss. The building
used by the German consulate, on this
square, is also in ruins. The costly
limited States custom house in course
of construction, and occupying the tri-
angular block between Lombard and
Water streets and Exchange place. is
said to be ruined. The marble blocks
are badly damaged. the cornices on the
north side are destroyed, and the mar
BILE is cracked in number of places.
