COL. GREENE DROPPED
NO LONGER DIRECTOR IN COM
PANY HE FOUNDED.

NEW YORK, February 15-Col. W. c.
Greene was dropped from the board OF d.
rectors of the Greene Consolidated Copper
Company. which he founded in 1880, at the
meeting Of the company's directors yester-
day, which put the associates Of Thomas
F. Cole and John D. Ryan in ONCE. It
has been known for the last two months.
ever since Messrs. Cole and Ryan obtained
control Of the Greene company for the
purpose Of merging It along with the Ca
nanea Central property into one concern.
that Col. Greene had ceased to be the doni-
nant factor In the company's affairs, but
1t was said by his friends at the time that
he would continue to be a powerful In
fuence. ana 1t was expected that he would
at least be retained as q director.
At yesterdays meeting. which was one
Of the Anal steps in the consolidation
plan. all of the officers and directors OF
the Greene Consolidated Copper Company
resigned and their places were filled by
Cole-Ryan men. many Of whom are iden-
titled with the Butte Coalition Company
and other Cole-Ryan properties. Not one
Of the Greene directors, some of whom
have stood by the colonel through several
attempts OF outside interests to get con-
troll Of his property, was reelected. The
new directors are c. d. Fraser, J. w.
Allen, w. d. Thornton, Clyde A. Mullen,
F. E. searle. George N. White. Walter 8.
Reed, c. A. Wright, jr., j. c. Labor. Charles
E. Scheide. E A. Brennan. Edgar Davis,
W. j. Sullivan and Arthur g. Caldwell.
Money for the Treasury.
The board was organized by the election
Of w. D. Thornton to succeed President
Greene, C. D. Fraser as treasurer in place
of Alfred Romer, and J. w. Allen secre-
tary. to succeed George s. Robbins. One
of the preliminaries Of the consolidation
was carried out yesterday in the trans
fer Of the company's treasury OF $4.OOO,
600 in payment for the 100000 shares OF
Cananea Central stock. which was the
Greene company's return for its transfer
of a large tract of mineral lands to the
Cananea Central Company at the time OF
the latter company's organization.
Before the merger of these two com
panies in the Greene-Cananea Company 10
finally accomplished by the exchange of
the shares of the merger company Tor
those of its constituents. It remains Tor
the directors of the three companies to
formally pass upon the plans, when WIZ
probably be done today.
The Greene-Cananea Company was in
corporated in Minnesota about two months
ago, with capitalization of $6O,OOO.OOO, OF
which $50 600 is to be exchanged for
the $40, OO0, 900 of Greene Consolidated stock
outsta nding at the rate Of one and one-hai u
shares for each share of Greene stock. and
for the $4,000, 900 of Cananea Central STOCK
at the rate of one and two-thirds shares
for one.
Col. Greene though his separation from
the Greene Consolidated Copper Company
is complete, Is said to be likely to nave
a place in the directorate of the merged
concern, and may even be one of Its vice
presidents.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The bank stock list at today's meeting of
the stock exchange claimed most OF the
attention. and while the volume OF the
trading did not give what was done any
special Importance, still some high records
were reached, and the further fact was
brought out that block Of over eighty
shares OF the Bank Of Washington was
for sale.
This Information was rather surprising,
as this stock IL 80 closely held that 1t Ii
seldom any of it comes on the market, and
then only in small lots. AZ It was only
about twenty-eight shares were sold today,
and 1t Is probable that the balance OF the
holding. II 1t IL sold, will be disposed Of
of the board.
Before it was developed that anything like
such an amount of stock was for sale the
broker having it offered ten shares. This
was taken at 612, which is q high level
even in recent days, when the merging OF
that institution with the Central Bank
was first made known.
Other sales were made down to 6O7A. and
at that point the seller of the stock said
that he had still ninety-four shares for SALE
Very promptly he had an offer Of 6O6 Tor
the entire block. which he did not accept.
Subsequently he said that he did not mean
fifty-four shares.
After call there were further transactions
in the stock recorded at Co.'S The progress
that is being made In the merging OF the
two institutions is said to be favorable and
already more than the requisite two-thirds
of the stock have given in consent to the
plan.
The high record Of price for the stock Of
the Central Bank was repeated today by
the sale of a ten-share lot at 1895. The bid
was then 1914 and the asking price 1864. but
the latter was withdrawn and 400 was put
in it's place.
The bid for the City National Bank stock
showed an advance over the figures OF yes
terday, but only twenty-five shares were
sold. and the price paid was 143. The bid
remained on that level, while the asking
price was 14H
A lump of unusual proportions for stock
in this class was made In the case of the
Commercial Bank stock when the bid rose
from 2O6 which was the bid of yesterday,
to 216h. while the asking price did not get
below 228.
The bid for Metropolitan Bank stock re-
manned unchanged, at 319h. but the broker
making it said he would give little more
than that If there was any for sale
Even Riggs Bank figured in the trading
for the day in this class OF securities, and
in small lots some nine shares were sold,
five Of them being taken at 625 and four
at 500. both of which figures are well along
in the high-record history of this stock.
Nothing WAS OOHe III Tile case VI ehC StoNiH
of the Second National Bank, except that
the bid of $50 for ten shares. which has
been recorded for some time past, was re-
peated today by broker for fifty shares
The balance of the list did not seem to
arouse much interest and there was not
much done.

Private advCes from Washington were at
