closed in Denver. Through this deal,
wnlch represents an expenditure OF
at least sl,00O,0OO. the smelter trust
has contracted with the Huntington.
Heberline company of New York, for
the installation of automatic, self.feed-
ing furnices for all its plants in Colo.
RADIO and several in other states. Five
smelters in Colorado will be dis
mantled and equipped with the i'm
proved apparatus. Probably not less
than year will be required for this
work. II will be carried on in such
way as not to seriously impair the
operation of the smeIters under pres
ent methods.
When the new process furnaces
have been installed there will be i,
tremendous Increase in the capacity
OF the smalters. Under present condi-
tions. which necessitate the use of
many men to feed the furnaces, ca
pacity OF each smelter is necessarily
limited. With the automatic appara-
tus, additional furnices may be built
as seems necessary and the capacity
OF each plant greatly Increased.
1t is stated that the nature of the
ores shipped to the smeiters has made
necessary some changes such as has
been determined upon. The excess OF
sulphide ores over the other kinds has
presented n problem difficult of solu-
tion. but with the new furnaces will
solve, according to experts who .nves-
tigated them in operation In Montana
