IS AFTER COPPER MINES.
John ID. Rockefeller Trying to Control tn,
Output of This Country.

output of This Country.
CHICAGO. Dec. IA special from
New York says: Wall street hears a
story that comes by way of Boston that
John D. Rockefeller is trying to gain
control of the entire copper mining in
dustry of the United States.
According to this Boston story. John
D. Rockefeller intends to corral all the
copper mines in the great Northwest
and use them as feeders for his great
transportation line across the Great
Lakes to the Atlantic seaboard. Some
color is added to the story by the great
activity on the Boston stock exchange
Of the stock Of the mines in Butte. Mon,
which, it is said. Mr.. Rockefeller de-
sires to first secure.
These mines produce $50. 900. 900
pounds of copper yearly. and are the
principal factors in the copper industry
Of the United States. All signs point to
his having already secured a majority
of the stock of Butte and Boston Mining
company.
Boston financiers declare that Mr..
Rockefeller's agents are now trying to
buy the Anaconda mine from James B.
Haggin in this city, and the Montana
Ore Purchasing company, from F.
Augustus Heinz of 100 Broadway.
With these two companies in his con-
troll, it is believed that it would not be
difficult for Mr.. Rockefeller to force the
great Boston and Montana mine to come
to his terms.
1t is asserted that Mr.. Rockefeller's
agents have offered $500 a share for a
controlling interest in the Calumet and
Hecla.
Copper is now selling for 10 cents per
pound, the highest price for many years.

LONG FIGHT PROBABLE.

Anti Expansionists VIII Bitterly Oppose
the Treaty.
WASHINGTON. Dec. SENATOR Frye's
belief that the peace treaty Nill be rati-
fled at the coming session Of congress is
not shared by other observers here.
That the treaty will eventually secure
the necessary two-thirds vote is prob
able, but it is generally believed that it
will not come to q vote during the
forthcoming session.
The anti-annexationists have an
nounced their intention Of making an
open fight. and. if their promise is made
good, the entire session will be con-
sumed in a futile endeavor to bring the
treaty to a vote.
The fight against the treaty will be
led by Senators Hoar. Hale, Spooner
and Morrill, on the Republican side, and
by Senators Caffery, Cockrell, Lindsay,
Turpie and Pettigrew on the Demo
cratic side.

WAsHlNGToN. Dec. 2.-The members
Of the commission delegated to visit the

which confront both Cubans and Amer
leans N the island. reached Washing
ton from New York during the day.
The commission was met at the station
by Senior Gonzales de Quesada and
Senior Cassona and went direct to a ho-
tel. where apartments had been re-
served for them. 1t is the expectancy
OF General Garcia and the other com
missiOners to remain in Washington
about 10 days. In a general sense it is
the object OF the commission to discuss
with the officials at Washington
All Questions Relating to Cuba
and its inhabitants. One Of the prin-
cipal questions will be that relating to
the disposition Of the Cuban army.
In the course Of an interview General
Garcia said it would be a hardship for
the Cuban army to disband at this time
without receiving pay for its services in
the field. The soldiers hope some
method may be provided whereby they
may be given sufficient means to gain a
new start in life. General Garcia has
no suggestion to make as to the method
Of providing these means, but expresses
the hope of obtaining, through the as
sistance Of this country, a sufficient
amount partly to reimburse the Cubans
for their services in the field. This sum
may be advanced on the security of the
Cuban revenues or obtained in any
other way that might be satisfactory to
tlis country.
