dreds OF industries have resumed OPERA
tions, giving employment TO thousands
OF idle workmen, in all lines OF trade and
In all sections OF the country. Prices OF
staple commodities, which had been un.
duly depressed, have been advanced, and
the copper market has not been excluded
from the list. Lake copper today IL
strong at Tx cents bid and liz cents
asked, while eiectrolytic copper In in de-
mand at III cents, and casting brands
from l0&@x cents. The copper shares
have not been taken in hand, to any
great extent, az yet by the speculative
public and have not advanced proper
tionately, but that an advance will come
soon, 10 almost foregone conclusion.
The resignation Of Captain Couch as
superintendent OF the Boston & Montana
mine has been accepted by the board Of
directors and Mr.. Frank klepetko has
been appointed to that position. Mon
tana stock has been bid up to SO and it's
supporters say thatit IL booked for much
higher prices. The company IL SAID to be
earning $16 per an0um and next year
the dividend rate will be increased to $12
unless there should occur some unforeseen
accident to change the plan.
The contest for the control OF the co.
600 shares Of Butte d Boston stock held
by the Davis estate, which practically
carries control OF the mine. probably will
end soon, az the Bigelow-Lewissohn syn
dicate has secured an option on the stock
and will close the deal as soon az posi-
BILE. The plan to freeze out this stock
has BEN frustrated through the advent
Of Mr.. Thomas W. Lawson, who opened
negotiations with the administrations OF
the Davis estate for the sale II the stock.
Rather than let any outsider step in and
dictate matters, the w-Lewirsohn
syndicate decided tn buy the stock them
selves. although it must have been gall
and wOrmwood so to do.
The extra dividend OF 80 per share
which was declared by the Quincy mining
company last week make a total of $40
or % regular and S12 extra paid thus
far this year.
IL now appears that the Pioneer circu-
lar asking stockholders for an option on
their stock was not sent around and also
the knowledge that such circular was
being prepared, cropped out prematurely.

the reaction had been verv small, consid-

reaction was the result OF a war scare
