There are stockholders of the com pany in many different parts of the world.
 The company was organized in Ari-- zona in 1905 and developed for 10 years before the great possibilities of the property were fully realized. It was then that the first move was made by certain interests in England to obtain complete control of the mine and exclude the small stock holder. An unauthorized loan was made by the president of the com pany in 1915 who signed over the mining property as security. It was when an attempt was made to fore close on this loan and thus take over the property that Mrs. Strong be- came active in the fight to protect ne interest of the great number of small investors who had, in many instances, turned over the hard earned savings of life times on the strength of representa- tions made to them concerning the mines.
 From that point the fight is re- corded chronologicaily:
 1917-Mrs. Strong was elected president of the company An at tempt was made to transfer the ' foreign note holders.
 191s-Mrs. Strong prevented the H. legal transfer of power by obtaining a court restraining order.
 1919-Attorney for Mrs. Strong att tempt to betray her She anticipates and blocks their moves. Representing 266,606 shares by proxy, Mrs. Strong prepares to attend special meeting of stockholders called at Nogales She is advised by her attorney that he will look after her interests and that. will not be necessary for her to make the trip from her home in Chicago to Nogales. She follows him to the meeting where she discovers irregularities. With evidence of this she asks that a receiver be appointed to investigate the affairs of the com pany and receives favorable action by the court. Judge William H. Saw telle appoints receiver. By paying from her personal funds the sum of S11,o00 delinquent taxes on the min ing property Mrs. Strong saved 1t from being seized by the government of Mexico and blocked a move on the part of the opposition to indirectly gain the desired control of the prop erty.
 It was also in 1919 that a special meeting of stockholders was held in Chicago and new board of direc- tors was elected. Mrs. Strong re-

DENY A GENERAL
WAGE REDUCTION
Railway Executives Say a Reduction IL
Not Considered; Revised Wages
for Unskiiled Labor Wanted.

CHICAGO. Feb. IA general re-
duction in wages of railway employees is
not being considered by the Association
of Railway Executives. which represents
80 percent OF the trackage of the coun-
try. according to a statement issued to-
night by Thomas Dewitt Cuyler. chair
man Of the association.
Mr.. Cuyler's statement came in re-
Spouse to reports circulated in railroad
and union circles that the meeting Of
railway executives which he called for
Feb. IS. would discuss plans for gem
eral wage reduction on all roads. Such
4 proposition never has come before the
association or it's labor committee, Mr..
Cuyler said. The executives viii meet
Feb. IS to discuss means of getting the
question of revision of wages of UNI
skilled labor legally before the board.
which rueI on Feb. 10 that it could not
act on the roads plea for abroEation Of
the national agreements and for a wage
scale revision for unsklled labor which
was asked because of the financial con-
dition OF the roads. Matters of finance
belonged before the interstate commerce
commission, the board said. Mr.. Guy
ler's statement follows in part:
This meeting (Feb. 1S) has been
called TO give the executives of the rail-
ways opportunity to receive a report
from its labor committee regarding de-
ing of the association was held.
The subject OF the general reduction
of railway wages has not been "onsid-
cred by the association or it's labor
committee and will not he the subject
Of consideration at the meeting Feb. 49,
1.-THE railway labor board in its de-
cision on Feb. 10 held that it could not
take any action on the labor committee s
suggestion that a reduction be made at
once in the wages of unskilled labor be
cause conferences had not been held
and a controversy developed between
the employees and the railroads which
would not enable the board legally to
take jurisdiction of this subject. 1t is
expected that consideration will be s'iven
at the meeting in Chicago Feb. lS as
to what steps should be taken by midi
vidual roads to get the question IF a re-
vision of the wages of unslllled labor
properly before the board.
The labor committee also will report
TO the association regarding the present
status of the proceedings before the la
Dor board concerning the national agree-
ments."
In the meantime. the labor side IS pre-
pairing to bring before the board the
cases of all roads which are alleged to
have violated rulings of the board hy
ordering wage reductions for section
hands.

FERRY PASS SURVEY
FUNDS PROVIDED
Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties
to Put Up $1,5co Each for
Survey Ferry Pass Bridge.

The board of Escambia county
commissioners, meeting yesterday
with members OF the state road de-
partment and Santa Rosa county
board. voted $1,000 as an equipment
fund to be used in making a detailed
survey for the proposed bridge over
Escambia bay TO be built near Ferry
Pass near the mouth of the Escambia
river. The Santa Rosa board will put
up like amount for equipment and
the state road department will give
the services of its engineers.
Chairman Phillips of the state road
department said that the department
was not in a position at the present
time to pledge any certain amount of
state aid to be derived from the fed
eral fund for Florida but that the
two counties would have the hearty
cooperation of the department in fur
thering the building of the bridge and
that as soon as funds could be made
available they will be turned over to
each county. Personally speaking,
Judge Phillips said that he heartily
endorsed the project.
The $1,000 put up by each county
for the detailed survey is to be di-
verted back to the county funds as
credit to be given by the state to each
county in the apportionment Of funds
1t is expected that Escambia county
will probably rate between one and
two million dollars of the federal
road fund voted for Florida recently
voted for Florida by congress.
With the detailed survey complet-
ed, everything will be ready for the
early construction of the bridge inn
mediately the funds are made avail
able. The project is of great impor-
lance to the development of both
counties and will furnish connect
ing link in state road No. /.
The members of the state road de-
partment approved the road work
already in progress by the county
commissioners.
