NUMBER l8

MIR. Hennessy returned last night
from New York whete he has been on
business connected with the trans
action. Most important of the details
given by him today was the statement
that 1t was his understanding that the
privilege of having pay check orders
accepted is to be extended to other
merchants by the Anaconda COMPANY.
Ir. Hennessy this morning said
The facts of the sale are simply
that 1 have bought the merchandise
aud book accounts, of the Butte and
Anaconda stores, that is, the Hennessy
store i'll Butte and the Cooper Citv
Commercial company in Anaconda. 1
never have had any connection with
other mercantile esta blishments in the
state in which the com pany is inter-
ested and my purchase does not extend
to them.
"Ihe company has agreed to buy
the real estate of the Establishments
in Butte and Anaconda, including the
Hennessy building here. I have agreed
to pay the company fixed annual
rental tor the use of that real property.
Il am to retain the privilege of hay-
ing orders accepted, but my under
standing is that the salile privilege
will be accorded to other merchants
also.
+ or more than two years the mat
ter OF this sale Of the colnpanys S mer-
camille interests in Butte and Ana
conda has been under consideration.
l was called east about a year ago,
when Mr.. Scallon was there, with the
understanding that the matter was to
be closed at that time, but owing to .
the pressure of other business the -.
transfer was deferred. This year l.,
went east in response to telegram
from MIR. Scallon that the company
was prepared to settle the matter.
ION arriving in New York met Mr..
Sca1lon and MIR. Rogers and the whole
business was completed in very short
time.

only fairly, but very literally Not
withstanding the fact that my busi-

BUSINESS men OF HAMILTON ACT
Propose to Keep Wagon Road to Owl
Creek Open All the Year-lleeting
Held and Committee Appointed

An enthusiastic meeting of repre-
was held yesterday afternoon, the pur-
pose being TO conserve Hamilton s in
terests in connection with the matter
of handling Owl creek traffic. Mr.. w.
u. Cross, J. D. Vance, Ed Morrison,
Nick Wynne and others who have been
over the road lately described it's con-
dition at the present time. According
to these gentlemen the wagon road
from Hamilton to Owl creek, at the
Boulder crossing, where Mr.. Cross
has esta b]ished his new camp, is prac-
tically open at the present time. On
his recen, trip Mr.. Cross took in over
a ton of supplies. The freight was
carried by wagon to Caneron's on
West Fork, there it was transferred to
sleigh and taken to within tour miles
OF the main divide. From there it was
hauled to the camp distance of seven
miles, on toboggans, the snow which
was between and feet deep, block
ing the wagon road at that time. Ed
Morrison, the mail contractor between
Darby and Alta, offered to clear the
road SO that cutter may be driven
from Darby to Cross camp on Owl
creek for $40O After consid erabl dis. g.
cussion on motion of Miles Romney,
seconded by Thos. Beavers, an execu-
tive committee consisting of Col. c.
M. Crutchfield, o. c. Cooper and w.

matter in hand This committee was
empowered to raise funds and take
such steps in the matter as might be-

II. II. Rogers Coming soon.

Butte, Feb. 20.-A prominent min
ing man who returned from an ex-
tended eastern trip few days ago
gave out the information yesterday
that H. H. Rogers would arrive in
Butte in about two weeks and person
ally assume charge of the Amalga-
mated interests in Montana. 1t was
also stated that Mr.. Rogers would
surround himself with a number of
prominent and influential men who
would have charge of the company's
several departments respectively, and
that the business of the company in
this state would be directed by these
officers during any time when Mr..
Rogers might be temporarily absent.
1t is said that this arrangement has
been agreed upon so as to concentrate
the management of the company's af-
fairs and facilitate the business oper-
atious in Montana. With Mr.. Rogers
in Butte it is claimed that many inn
portant matters could be settled quick
ly and more intelligently than if he
continued to remain in New York at
the head offices of the company.
Mr.. Hennessy was informed Of the
rumor last evening and he had this to
say: II believe Mr.. Rogers intends
coming to Montana soon, but as to
him assuming personal charge of the
affairs of the Amalgamated company
cannot say. In fact, do not believe
he knows what he will do until he ar
rives and looks over the situation.'
