Mar 31st 98 
Frank Simpson Esq 
Sheidly Building  
Kansas City, Mo. 
Dear Sir:- 
In reply to your favor of the 14th inst, I beg to state that the inquiry was perhaps suggested by newspaper reports. 
No lease or sale of the Ortiz property has been made to me. Mr. Lanson in his negotiations has I believe encountered many difficulties but he is persevering and will no doubt accomplish the best results obtainable. 
Yours truly 
Thos A. Edison
