SALE IS NOT CONFIRMED
GENERAL COUNSEL REFUSES TO
DISCUSS REPUTED HILL DEAL
FOR s. F. I. q M. ROAD.


W. E. Foran, general counsel of the
San Francisco, Idaho & Montana road,
refuses to affirm or deny the report that
his line has been sofd to James j. Hill.
Boise City dispatches stated yester
day that Mr.. Foran was on his way
east to close up the deal either at ST.
Paul or Chicago. At his office in the
Railway building today, Mr.. Foran was
not averse to the discussion Of the
new line, which is expected to cut a
big figure in western transportation
matters, but he said that if such q
deal as reported were under considera-
ton he would not say anything about
it.
The parentage Of the San Francisco,
Idaho & Montana line has been charged
at various times to the Western Pa
cific, the Hill lines, and to the 'Harri-
man crowd. It was promoted from
Minneapolis headquarters and the Off
GERS were men. well known in Mime
apolis. The line has now been rSgu-
lsxly organized, and Mr.. Foran, who
was treasurer, is now general counsel.
Mr.. Foran did not take occasion to

chase 200 shares Of stock Of the West
ern Securities company for the total
sum Of $1,000, Mr.. Edwards paid $500
in cash for the stock and gave his note
for the balance of the agreed pur-
chase price. He now asks that the
contract be rescinded on the ground
OF alleged fraudulent representations
made at the time OF the sale of the
stock.

pSny represented to him that the COM

ness and would handle all of the funds

Investment company, organized by Ty-
rec, and would thus make large profits.
Upon such representations he was in-
duced 20 purchase 200 shares of stock.

ties company handling the funds OF

dissipated. The agency company, it
Is alleged Ia incorporated Tor 10000
and the majority Of the stock Is owned
by Tyree. who has not even paid for

claimed, is wholly irresponsible.
Mr. Edwards asks that his contract

and that his note for $500 be cancelled
and that he have Judgment against the
