to the fact that in protecting their in
terests they had probably gone a little
too far the other way. he said it might
be true and freely stated that he would
take the matter up with his people i'm
mediately and see what could be done to
relieve the situation
The smelter trust has sent a repre-
sentative to Goldfeld to get in touch
with the situation. L. M. Bidwell, one
Of the executive officers of the trust
came to Goldfield during the week. Mr.
Pearse, the local representative, said
that his company is prepared to take
limited amount of Goldfield ores of a
grade which can stand the extra freight
to Colorado plants. paying therefor one
third upon the receipt of the ore and the
verifcation of sampling. the balance
within sixty days. Because Of the strike
in Goldfield. no action was taken by Mr.
Bidwell. Within sixty or ninety days
the surplus stocks of the Utah plants
will have been worked up and then the
lower grade ores can be handled. The
company is increasing the capacity of
the Garfield plant and making an earn
est endeavor to handle the large tonnage
offered"
The trust has succeeded in getting to
the refineries a large amount of bullion
which has been held up, en- route, by
the railroads, and is converting the gold
contents of the same into coin, which
relieves the stringency of its exchequer
1t is not likely. however, that there will
be return to cash settlement basis
for ores. The plan as proposed now is
to pay one-third of the value of the ore
when received and the balance at the end
of forty-five days for ore treated at the
Utah plants. and sixty days for ores
treated in Colorado.

largest trust company in New Yorl

s60.oo0.0 900, closed its doors at 1875
p. N. following a steady run Of per
sons who called TO withdraw their
deposits. The company officials de
clared that the suspension of payment
was only temporary.
The closing OF the doors Of the In
stitution was attended with sensa.

and the Harlem branch. Depositors
who crowded the rooms clamoring for
their money were insistent that they
be permitted TO withdraw even few

fused many refused to leave the build.
