Anderson was first struck by the

Both men lived about 80 minutes
beneath the snow. and the efforts of
John Lindberg, Merritt Dixon and
Frank Wilson to get them out proved
fruitless.
Lindberg led the rescue work: and
Just as he uncovered Anderson s head
he told him to be patient and they
would get him out.

smothering to death. My back is
broken and cant move my fingers"
This spurred the rescuers to hard
er work; but before Anderson was
taken from the snow he gasped his
last goodbye and attempted to tell
where his relatives live. Just as he
died.
Greenman was several feet below
Anderson and was dead when dug
out by the rescuers, who themselves
narrowly escaped the fate which had
claimed two of their fellow work
men.
The five men. employed in the tie

but. before the men reached point

Colorado Springs, Colo, Jan. 22.-
Reports received by stockholders of
the Midwest Oil Company in this city
today show that the net operating
profits for December were 500, ,752.5S
and for the ten months of last year
in which the refinery operated they
were s5S0,740.79.
The total production of crude oil
through the pipe line during the
year was 1,003 ,293 barrels. On Sat
urday the storage of oil on the field
was 127,679 barrels, and in Casper,
Wyo., 12S,030 barrels of crude oil.
The production from the wells on
Saturday through the pipe line was
4,299 barrels, and the company is
permitting only half of the wells to
flow.
East and West Amazed.
Oliver II. Shoup. president of the
company, is in New York, where fl
nancial circles have caught the wave
of western development which has
followed in the wake of the Wyom-
ing oil fields.
On the Pacific coast the Midwest
Oil Company, with its countrywide
qualifications. is looked upon as one
OF the amazing development projects
oil modern times.
Werner H. Reed, Colorado capital
ist and empire builder, is spending
several weeks touring California in
an automobile, and wherever his par
ty puts up for the night the Colorado
man is besieged by newspaper men
looking for the real story of Midwest
and the fortunes it has made for
western men. Reed found that the
news of his latest achievements in
financing with $4,000, 900 OF French
capital the development of the Wy
oming oil fields had preceded him.
History Being Rehashed.
In their accounts of the fortunes
made in Midwest. the newspapers on
the coast have overlooked the earlier
projects of the Colorado man, such
as the sale of the Stratton's Inde-
pendence mine, the development of
the Grand valley and other construc-
tive work which made Reed money
king long before the Wyoming oil
fields came into notice.
So interlaced with the romance of
business is the development of the
Wyoming oil fields that the story as
published months ago in New York
is being rehashed in the coast pa
pers.
