\ new move. and the latest one to be
made In the great game of consolidat ton

day when Mr. Newhouse began as
sembling a portion OF his stan on the
property Of the Utah Copper company
at Bingham for the purpose of examining
that prominent producer looking toward
the final arrangements through which
these prominent properties are to be
merged under ono control.
Have Started on Task.
Mr.. Newhouse stated Tuesday to The
Tribune that Mr.. Wiley OF his staff with
force OF eight or ten assistants had
started Tuesday morning TO examine the
Utah Copper ground, and while Mr. New
house refused TO place any time limit
upon their endeaVors, 1t Is thought that
an least ten days or two weeks Will be
required before Mr. Wiley and his as
sistants complete the task assigned them
Follows Recent Request.
This examination Is tie logical out

Importance on the Boston Consolidated
property, these developments occurring
aIter lhe various participants I'm the
consolidation negotiations had at least
reached partial conclusion as to the
terms under which the deal was to be
consummated. Following these strikes
on the Boston Consolidated Mr.. New
house made the request OF the Utah Cop
per company that his experts be per
Titted to make an examination of their
ground. This request was accordingly
granted, as the Boston Consolidated de-
velopments had put quite a different
aspect upon the situation from the inter
est side OF Mr.. Newhouse.
Merger Will Go Through.
Little doubt is expressed i'm ordinarily

from states that are not represented

fore. have no interest in the mater
except what is common to American
CT liens. Their objection to Mr.. Smoot
l. that he is a high official of the Nor
mon church, which Is considered a
disqualification for rendering effective
service to the United States
The senate committee is said 10 be

position to such course. The commit.
tee IS made mp OF Burrows, Foraker

Republicans, the others Democrats.
The formal vote will, under an agree
