Immediately, but it is understood
preDarations have gone so far that a
bin in equity is being drawn by de-

it Is possible that he will confer with

Suit Very Important.

ls regarded here DIS of great lmpor-
lance ranked only by the Standard

This view obtains not only because
the American Smelling and Refining

combined authorized capital of near i
ly $150,000,000, but because of the
varied activities of the two concerns.
