HARTMAN GETS
THE MOFFAT ROAD.
Allowed the Option on the Line
To Lapse, Then Cut
The Price.
A. C. RlOGWAY'S RESIGNATION.
viii be Announced on Wednesday, by
Which lime He Will Return
10 Denver

AS has been previously outlined IN the
News" the Moftat road has been sold
to the Hartman interests, News of the
sale from an official source was receive
ed in Denver on Saturday, and David
II. Moffat is expected to arrive In that
city tomorrow night, bringing the pa
pers with him. Vice President and
General Manager A. c. Rldgway Is also
on his way to Denver and by Wednes-
day his resignation from the Monat
road viii be officially announced.
According to the latest advlces Har-
riman worked a shrewd trick on Moffat
and cut him down considerably on the
price Of the road. Harrir'1n held an
option on the Moffat which expired
Jan, 3d. and according to its terms he
was to pay Moffat exactly what It has
cost to build the road up to this point
with per cent interest on the money
added.
When the last day Of the option ar
rived and Hartman made no attempt
to execute It, word was sent to Denver
that the deal had fallen through, This
surmise, however, proved to be prema~
ture, for after It was thought no sale
could be made, Hartman again opened
negotiations. He had learned, It Is said,
that Moffat was anxious to sell, and he
allowed his option to lapse simply from
the fact that he felt assured he could
make a better bargain.
Just what price was paid for the road
may never be known, but the statement
Is made that Moffat and his associates
were lucky to get back their money
without interest, and that instead of
cash. they are to receive In payment
new securities, which Hartman Will Is
sue on the property.
The Denver Post In discussing the
sale, says.
III Gould has any interest in the pur-
chase, II Is not know here. one au-
thority declares that Gould's withdraw
al from the original pool caused Har-
rlman to let his option go by, and then
squeeze down the price.
I'm speaking OF the sale today Pres
dent +. B. Gibson of the international
Trust company, who is also secretary Of
the Moffat road, said:
mo official statement can be made in
Denver until Mr.. Moffat returns. I
realize that the people are greatly in
terested in this matter and should be
Informed just as soon as possible on
what has taken place but Mr.. Moffat
Is the only one authorized to give out
a statement. Therefore, | must decline
to discuss the matter at all.
In another quarter II was stated to-
day that the new Colorado & Southern
syndicate had bought the Moffat road
and would extend Il to the Routt coun-
" coal fields. This could not be verb
fed at the headquarters Of the COM
pany"

TO the district a few weeks ago, Al
though only a limited amount Of de.
velopment work has been done some
astonishingly rich gold ore has been
uncovered Mr. Stolly says the same
formations extend into the region where
he is working and he sees no good rea-
son why producing mines should not be
found there as well as anywhere else,
He exhibited some fine looking gold
rock and the little yellow particles are
sticking all over II. A tunnel Is belns
driven towards the main ledge, which
measures from to 10 feet IN width.
