Mr.. White expressed himself during the
afternoon as being well pleased at the
progress of work at the companys big
smelter. The spur railroad track he said
was about completed and the work of
grading and placing the foundations for
the TOasters and furnaces was well under
way. Structural material is beginning to
arrive and, as it is now possible to get
men and mechanics with greater ease
than a short time ago. he expects to see
rapid progress made with the building
and equipment of the plant from now

said, was too well understood TO be
worthy of special mention at this time

ONTARIO'S WATER PROBLEM
Tapping of Tunnel Expected to Bring
Complete Drainage.

Manager c. L. Rood of the Ontario was
at his desk again yesterday after his visit
to the drain tunnel. He stated there was
little or nothing to add to what had been
said concerning the tapping of the tun-
mel from the side drift. The volume of
water that is now issuing from the mouth
of the tunnel has not been measured since
hole was shot through from the side
drift, but it equals about three additional
inches in depth across the width of the
tunnel-a great volume in itself.
Within a few days an effort will be
made to enlarge the hole that was shot
through the rock-ribbed side of the tun-
mel and thus bring forth still greater
flow if possible Manager Rood declines
to speculate on what the results will be,
though he hopes of course, that no other
serious obstruction will be encountered.
The water issuing from the tunnel now
is clear and that fact seems 10 indicate
that the channel is clear beyond where
connections with the main tunnel have
been made.

Mr. Grant was Just as favorably i'm

Sullivan and he regretted that his time
would not allow him to stay over and be-
come better acquainted Regarding the
controversy that the Sullivan Trust COM
Tany has been having with the Union Sc
curitieS company and certain interests
identified with the Bullfrog Rush COM
pany. Mr.. Grant frankly said:
BuIIfrog-Rush Matter.
When we first took hold of the Bull
frog Rush proposition We had several IA
vortble reports from high-class engineers
and the early development of the ground
seemed to justify every prediction made
for it. We spent a great deal of money
on the property and sold considerable
stock in the corporation. When it be-
came evident that the values encountered
were not holding out with depth and il
looked as though the enterprise would re-
suit in failure, we took immediate steps
to protect those of our clients who had in
vested their money in it, by offering them
value received in any one of the other
companies being handled by us. When
another company undertook TO deceive
people with respect to the merits of the
property. in justice to ourselves Cover
