No Possible Chance
for an Apex Suit

By knocking and probably a pre-
concerted plan the Bush street gang
yesterday succeeded in running Jum-
bo Extension stock down to $l.62H,
a lower figure than it has reached
since its phenomenal rise OF six or
seven weeks ago. To accomplish
their purpose the pirates of San Fran
c1sCOs bourse resOrted to the use Of
all their old weapons-lIes, Hbels and
threats. One of the statements they
made to force the stock down was
that the Goldieid Consolidated COM
pany was going to bring an apex suit
against the Jumbo Extension COM
pany. but this story was Immediately
branded as lie by the following
plain talk from George Wingheld,
president OF the Consolidated COM
pany:
There is no chance whatever for
apex liti cation between the Goldfield
Consolidated and the Jumbo Exten-
sion. There is a side-line agreement
between the two companies, part OF
which was arranged at the time the
Consolidated bought the Jumbo Ex-
tension interest in the Vinegarone,
and the agreement was brOadened re-
Gently at the time OF the Velvet deal
There is absolutely no chance ior
apex litigation"
