HE is PROUD OF BUTTE.
DIR. HOUGH OF SALT LAKE IS VISIT
ING HIS OLD HOME.

DR.. C. r. HOugh camel in from Salt Lake
City yesterday, to which place he re-
moved a little more than three years ago..
The doctor was a resident of Butte many
years and while here took an active in
terest in the public affairs of the great
mining camp. He has extensive interests
here and man, friends among the promi-
nent men Of the city, and naturally he
takes mitch interest in Butte's growth
and prosperity.
ct am very a%greeably surprised" said
he to an Inter Mountain reporter this
afternoon, Gin the wonderful growth and
substantial improvement that has
place during my brief absence. Butte is
metropolizing every year, and l would
say is the most prosperous city in the
world in proportion to her population. If
the city grows roportionately during the
next five years it will be by long odds the
most important point in the northwest.
1 have met many of my old friends today
and I want to say that no better people
exist than those who make their home In
this city"
Salt Lake, he said, was somewhat dull
Just now, and the future Of the city de-
ponds very largely on the adjacent mining
districts which are showing up well and
from which much is expected. The doctor
says the Salt Lake Mining Exchange has
been a material factor in the develop
ment of Utah's mineral resources, and he
is of the opinion that the organization OF
a local exchange would have a good effect
in Butte. p.
Speaking of the Utah senatorial situa-
ton he said he expected n hoped to see
A. w. McCune elected, a hope that is
shared by Mr.. McCune's many friends in
Butte.
The doctor will return to Salt Lake to-
morrow.

THE COPPER MARKET.

Messrs. d. Houston & Co., metal brOk-
ers, New York, in their monthly letter
say: Copper consumers have been re-
markedly busy of late, and unusually
large quantities Of copper ave gone into
consumption throughout the home trade.
Produce lave contracted very largely
for their outpu for several months
ahead, and consequently no pressure to
sell is noted, Notwithstanding the enor-
nous profits the present market secures
to Ihe copper producing interests. 1t is
interesting to note that it is now six
months and a half since copper has been
selling continuously at 12c and over, and
vet official returns show that since Aug.
/, 1898 to Feb. 1, 1899, under the stimulus
Of exceedingly remunerative prices,
copper production increased only $500
tons, and European copper production 49o
tons. compared with the previous CORE
spending period. This in round numbers
is an increase Of 1,166 tons per month
from the combined American and Euro
pean output covering the periods named.
Notwithstanding the recent fotation OF
numerous new copper mining properties,
these properties cannot be developed and
equipped to take their place among the
regular producers, many OF them, short
of a long time to come; so that during
1899 certainly, if not longer, the great
bulk of the worlds copper supplies must
continue to be furnished by the we'll
| known producers now in the field. In the
| course Of a few years new sources OF
supply will undoubtedly be available, n
other factors operate to exert their infiu-
ence, but on the other hand new avenues
| of distri!S }tion and wider channels of alb
sorption will certainly be developed, and
which may fully offset any expanding
production now probable. The uses for
copper which will arise from the extern
sion of electrical enterprises and the cleo
trio railway system may be expected to
acquire greater Importance as the de-
mand for these modern facilities of a pro-
eressive civilization become more wide
spread. Taking the possibilities of con-
sumption as we'll as the possibility Of
production into account, the task of pre-
dieting how the scale may turn even
tually is involved in no slight difficulty.

E. e M. Journal.-The market remains
quiet but steady. This week q larger
business was done, as a number of buy
ers found that their wants were not fully
supplied. Prices here have not followed
those of the London market, which has
been dominated by conflicting speculative
interests and has fluctuated violently,
while domestic values have held firm.
Manufacturers are exceedingly busy and
greatly hampered by the non-arrival of
supplies in transit. Producers, as we
have before pointed out, are very heavily
sold for months to come and p for
spot delivery is unobtainable, while early
deliveries are very scarce. The closing
prices here are, for Lake copper, 1Sc;

WILL WORK THE RED BLUFF.

George D. B. Turner came in from the
east last night. and in a few days will
leave for the Red Blu country, where he
expects to exploit the Red Bluff mine.
This property is owned by Henry Ell
Ivy and Sam Word. 1t is an old producer
but of late years has not been worked
successfully on account of the immense
volume OF water encountered. This ham
dicap Mr.. Turner proposes to meet by
installing a pumping plant sufficient to
handle the water.

The New York papers are poklhs d
great deal of fun at Tom Lawson, the
Boston broker, who is a star play
in the city of beans to control the copper
market, and who is now engaged in the
hopeless task of "~knocking' Parrot TOT
the purpose of depreciatlng that stock
so that he can buy it in at a low figure.
The New York Telegram Of March 3
says: oa,
ton Lawson'S attack or Parrot stock
is one of the interesting features of the
industrial market these days of JOY and
prosperity. His reasons for this action
are given out in lengthy newspaper in
tarviews, in which he says that the
stock is already far beyond what 1T Is
actually worth. However this may be,
there is hardly a share of the stock
changing hands at the prevailing figures.
In fact, the granger who came down
from Connecticut on Wednesday with a
roll of the stock big enough to choke a
mule, returned home yesterday, after re-
fusing $50 a share for his holdings. The
market quotation was $40.
THAT ere Lawson Teller skeered us
folks almost inter seven kinds Of cat fits,
b'gosh," he said to the man on the curb
before he lit out for his Connecticut
home, am blame my skin if I'll sell now.
Seen as how 1 held this stock for nigh
ON ter ten years, guess as how III hold
fast. Got it at par, too, b'gosh. Oh, 7
dunno, we're not so slow up i'm Connecti-
cut, even if there be a few straws in cur
whiskers.'
Meanwhile Tom Lawson continues to
play a tattoo on the Parrot, but the Mon
tana men in New York say that he is
wasting his energy, n predict that the
stock will go over the 100 mark before the
birds are singing in the spningtime."

being bid and 1870 being asked. Local
holders of Butte and Boston shares were
elated this morning when the stock was
quoted at 500, but subsequent quotations
of $50 showed that an error had been
made in transmission.
The peg in Parrot was removed for a
few minutes only when the stock was
uuoted at $441a. During the early morn
ing trading it remained stationary at Al,
figures that mean much in a policy shop,
but little to Butte buyers who get in at
the swell tide above the so mark.
Rumor has it that 2 10000 shares of this
stock was unloaded OF the Boston market
last week at $40, causing the drop to SIZE,
but the Montana holders of the stock are
holding out for much higher prices. The
Boston financial writer's mysteriously hint
at some pending copper deal, the develop
ments of which will come soon. Ihere

New York. May 23.-Hubbard Bros. &

business to-day on limited scale, as the
mills are more or less crossed during the
Whitsuntide holidays. At a slight con-
cession from reclosing quotations of FRI
day last our market however shows little
or no change, nor any new business
worthy of note. The general Idea that
some disaster to the growing crop will
occur is sustaining the market in face OF
the accumulation of the stocks at the
ports and interior towns All are aware
of the prosperity in the manufacturing
centers and hope that something may
change the present favorable crop ad-
vices With this idea dominant that The
chapter of accidents are in favor of the
buyer and nothing as yet visible the local
trade prefer 20 buy on sight concessions,
rather than TO look for any pressure from
the cotton remaining unsod."
