for their object the establishment, of
some basin of understanding upon

OF PROPERTIES DESIRED
THOMAS WAIjSH BETTER.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—The
condition of Thomas F. Walsh, the
Colorado millionaire, who is ill at
his residence In this city, was report
ed to be much improved today.
SUCH COURSE BELIEVED TO BE WITHIN THE LAW_
PROPERTIES CONSIDERED FOR AMALGAMATED
MERGER INCLUDE COLE RYAN AND BUTTE PRO
DUCERS—LIKELY OF ADOPTION.
The latest on the copper merger is given in the following
from Boston:
The Boston Financial News is in a position to give the latest
plan for the consolidation of the Cole-Ryan and Amalgamated
Copper properties. The plan has been formulated by the J. P.
Morgan interests and is entirely different from any plans here
tofore considered.
The plan is to form a new company which will offer to buy
the properties and not the shares, of the various Cole-Ryan and
Amalgamated operating companies and to pay for such prop
erties either with cash or stock in the new company.
The properties thus far mentioned as being taken into the
new company are the Anaconda, Butte & Boston, Boston & Mon
tana and the Parrot. Others will doubtless be considered later
such as the North Butte, Coalition and other Cole-Ryan compan
ies, but nothing definite has yet been done other than to consider
the selling of the Amalgamated properties to the new company.
The Amalgamated Chopper company will take the pay for
its properties in the shares of the new* organization, and thus it
will have complete control of the new concern.
By buying the properties of the different companies the old
companies will be wiped out entirely and the entire group of

of 1911, the array appropriation bill passed the House today by
a vote of 183 to 10(5. Present and not voting were nine members.

Ileachy and Rnabenshue were
piloting their alirigibles around the
course when the daring Frenchman
appeared suddenly out of a gully hid

circled the course three times, went
out across the country, came back
over the grandstand and alighted in
the center of the field.
In two flights he gave a re
markable exhibition of control over
his machine, gracefully making sharp
turns, now dipping almost to the
ground, again skimming the grand
stand only a few feet above the heads
of the spectators, ascending, de
scending, and finally, approaching
from the rear, the tent that houses

Judge Leavitt's Daughter and Her
I'liautTeur Will lie Forgiven.
NEW YORK. Jan. 11.—The family
of G. Howland Leavitt, the banker
and railroad financier, tonight con
firms the announcement that his
daughter. Miss Margaret Howland
Leavitt, 25 years old and the heir
to millions of dollars, was married
without the knowledge or consent of
her parents to Joseph F. Smollen,
her chauffeur.
According to the statement issued
by her family, Miss Leavitt went with
Smollen to Jersey City last Thurs
day and there the ceremony was per
formed. The family states that the
couple have gone south on their
honeymoon.
While any further statement was
declined, it is inferred from the
manner In which the announcement
was given out that the family has
relented in its attitude toward the
young couple anil that they will be
received in the home with forgive
ness upon their return.
POISONED BY WOMAN.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Jan. 11.—
Poisoned by a woman who had rob
bed him of $nOU worth of jew'elry,
was W. H. Helman, merchant of this
city, according to the coroner.
Cole-Ryan and Amalgamated properties centered in one large
copper producing company.
The idea of offering cash or stock in payment for the op
erating concern is to avoid any objection which minority share
holders may offer to the plan.
The above plan may not be adopted but it seems to be the
most likely one at the moment. Mr. John D. Ryan is in Butte
and has not as yet considered the plan, but it may be put
through without his consent should he object.

LITTLE SURPRISE ON
DIET—U. S. TARIFF UL
TIMATUM.
BERLIN, Jan. 11.—r-meperor Wil
liam opened the Prussian diet today
with a speech from the throne. It
foreshadowed a considerable deficit
in tho forthcoming budget, not with
standing Increased receipts through
improved conditions of trade. The
deficit is due chiefly to increases of
$50,000,000 in the salaries of gov
ernment employes. The Reichstag
reconvened today.
The United States government to
day informed the jerman foreign of
fice that it would regard the adoption
by the Reichstag of the proposed pot

INSURGENTS ISSUE DEFI
FROM CONFERENCE
MALICE AND UNFAIR
NESS CHARGED.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.—Formal
statement was issued today in which
the insurgents decline to be put out
of the Republican party by the regu
lars and announce intention to carry
to a finish the fight against the
speaker and the organization. The
statement follows:
In the effort to becloud the real
isBue an unfair and malicious at
tempt is being made to represent us
as opposed to President Taft's ad
ministration and politics. There Is
not even a semblance of truth in this
accusation. Without exception we
are firm supporters of Republican
doctrines and President Taft's admin
istration.
“Wo «j»o handed tnffpiher tOT ft Sift
gle purpose and no other. Our sole
aim as a body is to restore to the
House complete power of legislation
in accordance with the will of a ma
jority of its members. We are striv
ing to destroy the system of auto
cratic control, which has reached its
climax under the present speaker."
The breach between the "organ
ization” of the House of Representa
tives and the Republican “insur
gents” was widened perceptibly to
day. Tonight there is every evidence
that the mutually hostile acts of the
last few days will continue with in
creasing bitterness.
The joint Republican caucuses to
morrow' night are not expected to
bring affairs to a focus, as It is not
though anything will be considered
there excepting the election of a new
congressional committee. The first
battle will occur over the selection of
the committee by the house to inves
! tigate the Ballinger-Piuchot imbrog
' lio.

1 cash bail today to escape spending
some days in the Tombs. The Fed
eral authorities refused this amount
with the statement that Adams had
forfeited $30,000 bail after his ar
rest for a gold brick deal in Texas
in 1900.
