trouble between the officer and the

merely a business proposition so long
az the present body of carbonate ore

Mr.. Hadden satisfied himself ~ by
tests at the company's laboratory.
Mr.. Hadden's belief is that with prop

surprised that a tract of country,
showing such vast minera.izatiOn
should not, ere this have attracted
