Show I SILVER KING IS YET AT HOME Ridiculous Canard to Which tho Street Was Treated Branded by the Management. frIIERE hns bctn no sale of any I unit In a pool by which the af-j af-j fairs of the Silver KIn& Mln-lntTcompany" Mln-lntTcompany" are controllod, nor has ther been so much as a bond given any individual dr syndicate by which the acquisition of Us properties at Park City might bo sought. No transfer of any interest embodied in tho control has been made to tho Federal Lead company or any other company or its representatives, and tho relations existing exist-ing between theso Interests are those of perfect nccord." These negatives, spoken very positively positive-ly by Senator Koarns, vice-president and general manager of tho company, yesterday, were Inspired by a report on the streets that, considering the source from which It originated, It f were almost al-most exaltation to characterize aa an absurd and vicious canard. "Primarily," continued Senator Koarns, "our Interests are locked up In a pool agreement and could not be delivered de-livered wero It the desire of any portion por-tion of them to sell, nor do I believe there Is a member of that pool -who would consent to sell without the concurrence con-currence of, all. Yea, anything In the nature of mines and real estate owned by Keith and Kearns could bo purchased pur-chased at a price we might put upon It, but any one purchasing those Interests In the Silver King would bo required to purchase the control, least with the minority, however Insignificant that minority may be to share, equally, the IjiriwegeH ol ine majority. In conclusion Senator Kearns reiterated reiter-ated that at no time has the Silver King executed a bond In favor of any one, nor has It ever been In tho market mar-ket soliciting a purchaser. However singular It may appear to tho Irrational, Irra-tional, there are estates of this kind. Meanwhile the company continues Its distribution of $1,300,000 annually In dividends, while there are many, no doubt, who would be pleased to add It to their resources. |
