Greene and the Greene Gold-Silyar company. for many years. Is Co be formally de- clared forfeited ani open for loca.ion of mining claims February 9, at le o'clock noon. The department of fo- mento has made this announcement after waiting since January I2. a. which time the concession held by the Greene interests lapsed. Greene's con- eession lapsed by limitation on that date, but the department held up the matter of declaring the concession f-r- feited. This. it is said. was done until it could be determined definitely whether Col. Greene and his company had complied with the terms Of the concession. When the land is opened for filing Of mineral claims it is like ly that the mining agents offices in the districts of Guerrero and Rayon in Chihuahua and Sahauripa in Sonora which are the legal mining districts covered by the concession, will be lively places.
 The concessions held by Col. Greene and his interests in those states have long been considered valuable ones and many prospectOrs have waited for years to locate nroT critics in those statcs- For nearly foar years it is known That prospectDrs have locatesi what they believe to be valuable elai'"s. but have been unable to file on them beeause or his concession.
