NEW YORK. June 21.-There

American financiers. ignoring the
warning OF the Government against

issues. are piling up trouble for
A m ic a n commercial interests,
high officials declared today.
They see iii the attitude OF the
financiers q purpose to clean up
millions in commissions at the ex-

against the United States.
AT the. root Of the trouble for
American trade, officials suspected.
Ii the plan OF American financiers
to proceed with the promiscuous
sale Of foreign bonds in the Ameri.
can market without restrictive
clauses. which would require the
proceeds Of the bond sales to be
spent for American goods.
Manufacturers have protested to
the Administration that SUCH a
course spells disaster, to the efforts
of those endeavoring~ to expand
American markets. Sales Of for
eign bonds already have. proceeded
so far as to create an adverse in
ternational balance against the
United States The bankers de-
clare that American trade Is get
ting the benefit Of foreign loans.
Manufacturers contend. however.
that the loans are being negotiated

tries,

A further idea of the size of the
task undertaken is afforded by the
statement that one of the first require

of new drifts and erosscuts on the low
est fire levels in order to establish
slndge pipe lines in contact with the
fire. This was done by men who so

a comprehensive telephone system was
established, connecting every working

and the flume head at the tailings pond.
while series of automatic instruments 3
were installed not only to record ex-
act'y the proportions of solids and
fluids going down into the fire zone.
but to measure the quantity of water
used.
This was important for it was es-
sential to keep track of the water
flowing in to prevent accumulations in
sufficient quantities either to strain
bulkheads and retaining walls. or to
create a flood hazard. A constant
check maintained by these instruments
both at the intake and at the point
of discharge shows that every gallon

Filling in was begun on the lowest

Berrien elected to use the sand and
earthy material to be found in the tail

from the Black Rock mill of the Butte

ployed. but when this mill shut down

work. But he went into the army in
1913, and was away until February,
1919. Two years ago he became super
intendent of the Anaconda phosphate
properties in Idaho. During the inter
i'm and since his transfer Mr.. Rahilly,
who started as his assistant, has had
charge Of the work.
The first move after the decision
to adopt the sludging process was to
drain the shaft of the old Reins mine,
a short distance to the eastward of the
Leonard mine in Meaderville, a Butte
suburb. Then flume two feet wide
and eight inches deep was built to CON
meet the Reins shaft with the tailings
pond. almost mile distant. Tbs flume

was given grade sufficient to assure
the flow of the heavily silted fluid
even during the worst winter storms.
Two pumps were installed in shafts
driven down to bedrock in the pond for
lifting the slime into the flume. At
the Rens shaft a huge, water-tight
wooden box was constructed to re-
ceive the sludge from the flume. and
from this, by way of two large spigots,
the fire -smothering material flowed into
IA sixinch pipe, which led down into the
shaft. At two or three different levels.
about 200 feet apart, sludge relay sta
