GREENE LEFT
 ENTIRELY OUT
Former Head of Cananea Consolidated Not Even Given Place on Directorate by Cole-Ryan People-Not One of Greene Directors Is Reelected.

Colonel W. c. Greene was dropped from the board of directors of the Greene Consolidated Copper company, which he founded in 1899, at the meet ing of the company's directors yester- day, which put the associates of Thomas F. Cole and John D. Ryan in office, says the New York Times, It has been known for the past two months, ever since Messrs. Cole and Ryan obtained control of the Greene company for the purpose of merging it along with the Cananea Central property into one concern, that Colonel Greene had ceased to be the dominant factor in the company's af- fairs, but it was said by his friends at the time that he would continue to be a powerful influence, and it was ex- pected that he would at least be retain ed as a director.
 At yesterdays meeting, which was one of the final steps in the consolida- tiOn plan, all of the officers and direct ors of the Greene Consolidated Copper company resigned and their places were filled by Cole-Ryan men, many of whom are identified with the Butte Coalition company and other Cole-Ryan proper ties. Not one of the Greene directors, some of whom have stood by the colonel through several attempts of outside in- terests to get control of his property, were reelected. The new directors are c. D. Fraser, J. W. Allen, W. D. Thorn ton, Clyde A. Mullen, F. E. Searle, George N. White, Walter s. Reed, c. A. Wright Jr., J. c. Labor, Charles E. Seheide, F. A. Brennan, Edgar Davis, w. J. Sullivan and Arthur c. Caldwell.
 The board was organized by the cleo tion of w. D. Thornton to succeed President Greene, c. D. Fraser as treas
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1907-02-21

urer in place of Alfred Romer, and J. w. Allen, secretary, to succeed George S. Robbins. One of the preliminaries of the consolidation was carried out yesterday in the transfer of the com pany's treasury of $4,000,000 in pay ment for the 200,000 shares of Cananea Central stock, which was the Greene company's return for it's transfer of a large tract of mineral lands to the Cananea Central at the time of the lat ter company's organization.
 Before the merger of these two com panies in the Greene Cananea company is finally accomplished by the exchange of the shares of the merger company for those of its constituents, 1t re- mains for the directors of the three companies to formally pass upon the plans, which will probably he done to- day.
 The Greene Cananea company was in' corporated in Minnesota about two
 months ago, with capitalization of
 $6O .OOO. 900. of which $50,000,000 is to
 be exchanged for the $20,OOO,OOo of Greene Consolidated stock outstanding at the rate of one and one half sharer for each share of Greene stock, and for the $l2,000.000 of Cananea Central stock at the rate of one and two-thirds shares for one.
 Colonel Greene, though his seperatior from the Greene Consolidated Copper company is complete, is said to be like ly to have place in the directorate of
 the merged concern, and may even b'
 one of its vice presidents.

 SUPERIOR STOCK
Secretary Tells of Futile Attempt to Interest Outside Capital Owing to
 Impossibility of Making Thorough
 Examination of Mine.

Secretary E. A. Peterman of the Lake Superior & Arizona company has issued the following statement to the stock holders by authority of the board of directors:
 In connection with the assessment called on the outstanding stock of this company, notice of which accompanies this letter, your board of directors deems it proper to make the following statement:
 In October, 1906, your board, upon the advice of the superintendent of the mine. came to the conclusion that the physical condition of the property was such that measures should be taken to raise funds for the purpose of pro viding adequate transportation and smelting facilities for it's. ores. Esti. mates of the amount of funds neces- sary to carry out the proposed work were received and considered, and the board decided that the money should be raised by further issue and sale of the stock of the company. It was the opinion of the members of the board that the sale of large block of stock could better be accomplished by offering the same to outside capital, thus relieving the present stockholders from the burden of supplying the re- quired funds.
 In accordance with these views, ne- gotiations were opened with capital ists interested, who were invited to ex- anime the property. Several examina- tions of the property were made. On the first examination the parties inter ested decided not to accept the terms offered by your board for the apparent reason that the ore actually blocked out was not as large as expected Another examination by other parties was in progress at the time of the recent flood of the mine, but as the engineer making the examination was unable to examine of the water, the negotiations were dropped.
 | The merits of the property, in the | opinion of the board, remain unassailed and the present assessment is called for the purpose of providing sufficient funds to carry on the development of the property at this time. The board proposes to ship as speedily as possi- ble the ore now on the dump at the mine, some three or four thousand tons recent shipment of which netted in the neighborhood of $50 per ton. As soon as the weather permits the lower level will be unwatered and the work of blocking out the ores at that depth resumed.
 The resignation of A. c. Seiboth as superintendent of the mine has been accepted, to take effect February l, 1907, and the vacancy will be filled as soon as competent man can be SC. cured. In the meantime, MT. Worces. ter, who has been acting as assistant superintendent, and who has been iden- tifed with the property for number of years, will fill the vacancy under the supervision and direction of Dr. w. | A. Holt.
