Jerome Verde

A special meeting of stockholders of the Jerome Verde Copper com pany will be held at an early date for the purpose of considering means of raising money to continue devel- opment work.
 In a. statement to stockholders, mailed from New York under date of March F, Secretary I. Mabbett Sutton says:
 Our balance of working capital is sufficient for only few weeks work We cannot rely on income from ore sales. The provision of new funds should, therefore, be made i'm mediately."

It is understood that not all the 5GO,- GOO shares were sold at the time but whether there is enough left in the treasury to raise the amount Of money required is not known here.
 Secretary Sutton draws attention to the fact that at the last two an nual meetings no quorum was pres ent. It is asked that each stock holder have all his shares transferred to his own name at once, "in order that the purpose Of this meeting shall not fail through absence of a quorum"

PEACE PACT INVOLVED
By KARL III. Won wIEGAND.

Berlin, Oct. IA stir has been
created in the inner circles of the
Russian counter revolutionary
groups who lean toward Germany
rather than France by the alleged
discovery that Ignatius Lincoln,
famed as the international spy,
and who played a prominent part
in the Kapp revolution in March,
disclosed their secret plans to
France.
Among the secrets is said to have
been the strategic plan drawn by
Col. Bauer, who was Kapp's chief
of stan. for a combined Russian,
German and Hungarian operation
in the spring to overthrow the Boil
sheviki II successful, the opera
ton was to have been followed by
a grouping of the three powers
against the treaty of Versailles
economically and politically.
Spy Changes sides.
Lincoln was Col. Bauer's conn
Dental agent in the Kapp coup. 1t
is said now that he is the Confden-
tiaI agent of the new movement.
The movement against the Soviet
regime is in two parts-one led by
Gen. Wrangel and the pro-French
influences, the other the anti-Bol-
shevist who are allied with the
German anti-Bolshevists.
The group that is inclined to-
ward France favors a new white
and preferably monarchist Russia
as an ally of France against Ger
many. The other group can see
Russian success only if that coun-
try is allied with Germany. This

Federated United States of Russia
Col. Bauer, it was alleged, was
in connection with certain Buda-
pest and Vienna circles and had
evolved a scheme and organization
for a restoration" of Russia to be
favorable to Germany.
Lincoln is Versatile.
Lincoln was credited with being
the initiator of many of the phases
of the plan. He was very active in
Budapest. Being a Hungarian Jew
before he transformed himself into
a Presbyterian minister in Canada
and later became a member Of the
British House of Commons, Lincoln
resented the attitude toward him in
Budapest and went to Vienna where
he is said to have assisted in or
ganizing the monarchistic move
