BUTTE, June 13.--DOston advices show
an advance Of $40 per share in the stock
Of the Boston & Montana company in the
last 80 days. The strong reaction from
the copper syndicate scarce indicates a
restoration Of confidence in the future OF
the copper market. The permanence of
the Butte mines has not been in question
for the past ten years, and shares in the
big copper concerns here are considered
as good as government bonds. Butte \
Boston is also taking a rise. Boston y

Earlier reports to the effect that $4,000

upon the supposition that there were 3d.
900 people in the burroughs. Reports as
to the number OF bodies recovered at diff

Montana Union Sl,ops.

BUTTE, June 13.-The Montana Union
shops, it has been definitely decided, will
be located at Anaconda. These shops
will cost over 100000 and when COM
pleted will employ regularly 15O men.
1t is proposed to do at these shops the
engine and car building and repairing
for the Montana Union railroad which is
now being done at Livingston, Pocatello
and Omaha. Anaconda is selected be
cause the citizens of that place have do
mated site for the shops and guaranteed
the water power free for an indefinite
period. This offer amounts to saving
OF $4,000 a year and the officers Of the
company could not afford to neglect such
an advantage. The general offices of the
company will remain in Butte for the
present and the repair shops at this point
will also be maintained.
