BIG OPERATORS
OF BUTTE HERE
F. Augustus Heinze and Others
Gathering in Salt Lake for
a P0W-WOW.
BINGHAM MINES INSPECTED
BELIEVED GREAT THINGS ARE
PLANNED FOR FUTURE.

f. Augustus HeinZe. accompanied oy
Engineer Alfred Frank and II. l. VIII
son, came down from Butte yesterday
morning and shortly after the noon
hour they pulled out for Bingham i'll
Captain Duncan MacVichie's big auto,
with the latter at the nelm. During the
morning hour or two that he had at his
disposal Mr.. Heinze was in consultation
with President e. l.. White at the
Bingham Consolidated offices. 1t had
been planned that Joseph A. Coram
should arrive from the north at the
same time with Mr. Heinze, but the lat
ter failed TO show up. He will be here
today. While Mr.. Heinze avoided the
interviewer, it was learned that he
would probably be here for several days
this time and that matters affecting
the future of the Bingham Consoli-
dated would be thoroughly gone into
during his sojourn.
That Mr.. Heinze and his party were
looking into propositions other than
these controlled by the Bingham com
pany during his trip to camp yesterday
is known and that a pending deal will
be consummated during the next few
Gays is considered most probable. Mr..
Wilson, who accompanied the big OPP
orator from Butte, is largely interested
in the Giant Chief cOmpany's proper
ties at Bingham and the party also
made IN inspection of that ground. AS
a matter of fact there has been consid-
cradle doing in the Bingham and some
of the otEer districts by the Heinze
engineers since the latter's visit to this
city several weeks ago and there is a
prospect of business being done at
places little thought of at the present
time.
Power in Smeterdom.
Information that is cropping 10 the
surface makes L plain that Mr.. Heinze
is not only shaping matters so as TO
become a heavy factor in Utah mining
enterprises, but there is evidence that
he is preparing to become formid-
able entity in the smelling world. MS

according to report obtained control or

he is reaching out for other lead prop
critics. not only i'm the Occur dAlenes,

community of interests existing be-
tween them all, what can be more nat

works to take care of the whole bust
ness are being planned?
Utah Will Get the Works.
That Utah has been or will be Sc
lected as the home for these eontem-
plated works is considered certain by
those who have been carefully meas
uring the trend of events. 1t is pointed
out that Mr.. Heinze is already closing
down and dismantling his mammoth
smelling works at Butte and it is not
believed that he viii long content him.
