WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-The in tricate financial side of the case of the American Tobacco company. known as the Tobacco Trust. now in process of dissolution by order Of the supreme court of the United States because it is a combination in restraint of trade is set forth in Herbert Knox Smith. commis- sioner of corporations report which he sent to the president and which was made public today. The sec ond part of the tobacco industry report deals with the earnings. capi- taliZation, and investments of the concern.

OREGON CASE
 HEADS DOCKET
United States Supreme Court Decision on the hi tiative and Referendum is Expected at an Early Date.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24-The in itiative and referendum probably will be the subject of a decision-with far reaching consequences-by the Unit ed States Supreme court next term The question of the constitutionality of these matters Of government form the basis of suit between the state of oregon and the Pacific States Telephone and Telegraph company, and the case is near the head of the docket It originated in the com pany's challenge of the law enacted by the oregon legislature under the initiative plan by which a tax of two per cent is place on the company's gross earnings Taking the position that the initiative and referendum which are coupled to the oregon law are inconsistent with a republican form of government as guaranteed by the constitution, the company re fused to pay the assessments. The state brought suit and the lower court upheld the law. The state su- preme court did likewise. The case is attracting unusual interest owing to the fact that seven other states and the prospective state of Arizona have similar laws.

SECURITIES COMPANY
 WILL BUY THE CLIMAX
Preliminsries For Sale of Valuable Property are Said to be
 Complete.

According to a letter received yes terday by NJ F.. Spaulding from R. NJ Martin, president of the Granite Securities company of Los Angeles. the sale of the Climax mines on the Hassayampa is being closed and by November 15 the formal transfer of this valuable gold group will be made says the Journal Miner MT Spaulding, as an officer of the Cli- max Mining company, and as a stockholder in the Granite Securities company. speaks adyisedly of the final winding up of the deal in which the securities company will acquire the property, having qualified to the conditions of the bond. In the event that the deal is not closed and the property remains under the present ownership on November E. six other investors are waiting to take up the option which means in any event, that the mines are to go under new ownership in the next few months.
 Mr Martin in his letter does not desire to give publicity to the price but that it will be one of the largest deals consummated in this field in many years, is generally admitted.
 The information is also given out by Mir Martin that the Granite Se- curities company will not retire from this section after the Climax deal is closed. but will immediately begin operations on the Catoctin mine which they own. and on a plan of extensive development. The CatoCtin is situated about two miles from the Climax, and in past years was oper- ated to some extent and with favor able results.
 The closing of the Climax deal fol- lows as the result of the eXamina- tions made during the present year by many mining engineers and with several test runs of ores from every point in the mine. which have given astounding gold values, in addition to exposing thousands of tons of ore in drifts and stopes.
