How a Cape Cod Fisherman Became

Baker and jamaica" how this gentle
Cape Cod fisherman became the King OF
Great Britan's richest West Indian Isle.
The history of the conquest began thirty
five years ago, with an, armada of one lone
schooner. She had two masts, and could
carry hundred tons. Her owner ana
skipper was Lorenzo Dow Baker, the son
of a whaler, and a, child of the sea as
well. He took a cargo to Argostura and
on his return trip carried lot Of bananas.

More About Heinze.

Wherever there is mystery interest CEN
ters and popular curiosity will not be
satisfied until the light is turned on. From
the start everybody felt that something
was being held back in the story of the
transfer of the Heinze properties in and
around Butte to the Standard Oil in
terests identified with Amalgamated. Com
tnuing developments since the sale have
verified this suspicion. Firstly, the price
was $40 100000 in cash instead of $25,0O0,000
as first stated. Then it was given out
that S25000,000 was part in cash and part
in securities The next version was a
straight out denial that the United Copper
had been given any securities and that the
deal was for cash and no other considera-
ton. Still later there foated through the
street a rumor that IIeinze had been given
something ON the side" to bring him to
terms. Still further along the specific
quantity was named as 100000 shares of
Amalgamated at figure considerably
above par. with the further agreement
that the market for Amalgamated should
be given to Heinze' to enable him to
put the price to $50, thus affording him a
chance to work out Of his big line at a
huge profit. he having previously been u
heavy buyer from 10 all the way up In
this connection it was recalled that on
the day of greatest activity in Amalga-
mater about three weeks ago there had
been immense transactions between is
and 116 on what looked like matched or
ders. Flower &s Co. alone bought $4,000
shares. If Heinze got 100000 shares it was
probably at that time and rumor put the
figure at 49, He was given credit by
his followers OF having line of $50 600
shares of Amalgamated. He took the
market considerably given him by Mr.
Rogers and began booming it, putting the
price to a fraction under 1i9, About this
time he discovered that somebody was
feeding him the stock In allopathic doses.
