Boston, Feb. 15-For many years F.
Augustus Heinze has fought the Anal
gamated copper company in the courts
and underground. During the fight
Heinze has stolen millions of dollars
worth Of ore from Amalgamated, and
lars worth of ore from Heinze. I say
st0len,'' because both have been con-
victed by the courts of stealing ore.
Rogers and Rockefeller have statedre-

oath in court, that Heinze's entire out
At was not worth $5,000,OO0, and Heinze
has duplicated their, assertions to the
effect that under no circumstances could
Amalgamated be worth $4,000, 900. K
Then they both started to settle,
whereupon Heinze's stock because Of
| the coming settlement, shot up until it
Is selling today at $40 900, ooo, and
at $190,000,0oA. They settled by the
formation of new company for $40,-
600, 900, which by the payment of $25,-
100000 is to acquire Heinze's right to
sue Amalgamated and Amalgamated's
right to sue Heinze. 't --r

Heinze has taken in payment for his
