THE COPPER RISE.
The Price of the Metal Gradually
Crawling Up.

A few days since The MINER noticed the
sudden rise OF $25 per ton in the London
price of copper, with an indication that a
further advance was more than probable,
and such has been the case, as will be seen
by the following from q New York exchange
OF the 2Sth OF November: "The copper
market here is decidedly stronger than for
some weeks, and prices have slightly ad-
vanced. We quote Lake quiet, 11@l1Ac.;
is asked; Baltimore, 1O@1Obc., at which
figures some 800, 900 pounds were sold dur
ing the week. 1t is said that the Calumet
& Hecla declines to quote for next years
delivery. The Parrot Company, which re-
Gently opened it's refining works at Bridge.
port, Con-, is said to De a free seller OF +
s. C. brand at 1Oc., even in small q IAN
titles. What this course is due to is merely
coniectured. One OF the large Butte,
Montana, works has contracted
for it's entire next years output
Of matte, to be shipped abroad, un-
less the market here should advance con-
siderably. The price obtained is said to be
considerably above the rates now ruling.
The prospect for the supply of furnace M
terial for our works during the coming year
is very poor, and prices OF copper must ad-
vance considerably here to keep our fur
mace material on this side. The London
market, which was wildly fuctuating when
we went to press a week ago. dropped on
from f44 as the top figure on the goth to
943 on the 21st, cal los. on 23d, f4l It's.
3D., f42 on oath and 25th. Yesterday a
reaction set in, and TODAY cables to the
Metal Exchange quote Chill bars f43 los,
and best selected EAT, which is an advance
in this brand of f2 during the week: The
market has become steadier, and the ad.
vance being more gradual and being shared
by other metals, appears likely to be better
sustained. There is a general expectation
that prices will advance considerably ana
permanently on the other side and on thus,
as indeed is indicated in the contract }us1
mentioned for Montana matte for the whole
of next year."

Anaconda Notes.

Morgan Evans, OF Deer Lodge valley
has purchased the valuable dogs, Moody
and Sankey. They have a wide reputation
as being the finest sheep dogs in the
western country. The heart OF Chris
Keisen is made glad by this purchase as he
talks all day to them-the same as to a
man.
Saturday night a bevy of eight young
ladies from the College of Montana at Deer
Lodge, paid a visit to their parents and
friends in Anaconda, and in honor OF the
occasion an impromptu soiree was given
them and a pleasant evening enjoyed. The
The visiting misses were Matte Renker.
Louisa Mcmillan, Cleo. Liscomb, Nellie
Thomas, Jennie Batterton, Thula Harden
brook, Rachel .Kohn, Jennie Kinney. The
young gentlemen of Anaconda took espe-
cial pride in making the affair a most agree
able one, and it il safe to say the ladies
will be willing to accept a repetition OF the
compliment.
The racingcraze in Anaconda just now is
receding. It effects the business men as well
as the sporting fraternity, and the mere men
ton OF q spirit causes an offer of a bet.
There have already been several unpleas-
ant meetings between the friends OF the
rival runners, and it is to be hoped that
unless there is to be a genuine contest, that
the matter should be down. John Kel-
ley, who belongs here, is willing to run a
mile dash with any man in the Territory
for $3.50 a side, and H. Maurice will pick
up any man at sixty Yards for from $3.50
upwards. Let there be a race II less
talk.

UNWELCOME CHINESE,
The United States Court TAX u Rather
Bold Stand.

SEATTLE, w. T.. December 4.-The dis
pute regarding the disposition OF the
twenty-five Cinnamon, struggled from
British Columbia, was brought to a close
yesterday by summary action on the part
of the United States authorities. 1t will be
remembered that the Cinnamon were found
some months ago on Il rock in the straits
OF Fuca, where they had been abandoned
by the master of a schooner, who had tried
to smuggle them into the United States.
They were brought before the United States
Commissioner, and the Marshal was Or
dered to escort them back to British Co
lumbia. The authorities OF that province
refused to receive them without the pay
required by the Canadian law. The
Marshal accordingly returned with them
and they have since been confined in the
United States Penitentiary at McNeill's
island. On Monday last they were brought
before the United States Court here. and
Judge Greene instructed United States
Marshal George to escort them across the
boundary line, and leave them in British
Columbia, without regard to the protest OF
the British Columbian authorities. Mar
shall George accordingly took them to Sem
iahmoo, a town near the boundary line,
and then escorted them across the line,
and two miles into Canada territory. They
were turned loose there, having previously
been supplied with provisions for several
days. The heathens started at once for
New Westminster, having no desire to re-
turn to the United States.

Adiudged Insane.

Yesterday afternoon, before Judge Irvine,
the German who was taken up the day pre-
vious on the charge OF insanity, was exam'
ined before IL commission consisting OF DR..
Thomas Carroll. Charles r. Kessler and
Thomas c. Porter. Several witnesses who
knew the unfortunate man well testified as
to his past and present condition. 1t vas
stated that several years ago he was u we'll
to-do business man, but that reverses had
come, and from that time to the present
he had not been himself; but that during
the last three months he had been worse
than ever, and had given unmistakable
evidences OF insanity. During the progress
of the investigation the man sat a quietl.
and apparently disinterested spectator,
his vacant look showing that he did not
appreciate the fact that he he was the sub
ject OF the proceedings. After hearing all
the testimony the commission decided that
he was a proper subject for the Insane
Asylum, and rendered a verdict according
ly. The lha will he sent to Warm Springs
to-day and placed in the custody OF DR.
MussigDrod.

THE CITY REGISTRATION.
A Large Number of New Names Added
to the List.

Last n'ght at s O'Clock Acting City Clerk
Mediation closed the registry book for the
coming election, to be held December 9th,
and the list OF additions is very much larger
than was expected, being 25G. When the
election was held in May last there were
1852 names on the book, while now there
are 1908, and this is exclusive OF the
changes from one ward to another. All
through the closing day the clerk was kept
quite busy attending to that class who
always put Off such things until the very
last day. Undoubtedly there were many
persons who did lot register, merely from
neglect, while some were not aware that
the time was short. The increase is very
large, and considering that the city limits
are so small, it is IL matter OF some sur
prise where so many people corne from.

INDIANAPOLIS, December 2.-The Farm
ers' National Congress Of the United States
met here to-day in annual session, eleven
States being represented. President Robert
Beverley, OF Virginia. in his address, called
attention to the depression in prices in the
various products to malicious legislation
regarding sheep h%usbandry and to the
necessity for various legal reforms. 1t asks
for three measures for the benefit Of the
agricultural interests, the creation Of a Sec
rotary of Agriculture as a Government de-
partment; the extension of the benefits of
the civil service, and the suppression OF
pleuro-pneumonia among the cattle coun-
try. It points out the folly of appropri-
ating millions OF money to river and harbor
improvements without extending to agri-
culturalists, who comprise 81 per cent OF
the population, the benefits OF the signal
service. The present Congress is a notable
one, it being composed OF some OF the
largest and wealthiest planters and farm
ers in the country.

BURMESE
King Thebaw, Half Frightened to Death,
Surrender to the British.

LONDON December 3.-The following ad-
ditional details of the surrender OF King
Thebaw we're received here to-day. On Sat-
urday last General Pendergast, commander
of the British expeditionary force, at the
head of a brigade OF troops. marched into
Mandalay. King Thebaw at once received
Colonel Slowden, who accompanied the ex-
peditionary force as civil commissioner at
the palace, with native Eastern formulas.
The King was much affected and frightened.
He said he hoped the British would
snare his life; that he wished
to abdicate and would remain in
anv house allotted to him by the British
Government. King Thebaw claimed that
his Minister had deceived him in regard to
the situation of affairs; that he was ig..
norant of what was occurring outside OF
Mandalay: that he was almost q prisoner
in his palace; that he feared assassins
would slay him if he left his palace, and he
would surrender to the British authorities.
Colonel Slowden advised His Majesty to
plead with Lord Dnfferin, Viceroy OF India,
at Calcutta. On Sunday Thebaw sur
rendered in the presence Of the Ministers
and embarked for Calcutta under o guard.
French Consul accompanied bis
Majesty. The Burmese appear to befriend-
" disposed toward the British.
THE INsrIGAToR ARRESTED.
N December "a dispatch from
Mandalay says: Fenedah, the Minister
who is responsible for Thebaw's cruelties
and intrigues against England was arrested
while trying to escape.
