PATHS Wedding
THE GREAT ADELINA WILL RE
COME BARONESS CEDERSTROM
TODAY.

London, Jan. 25.-At Craig-y-Nos
Castle, the home of Adelina Patti, the
great cantatrice will today be married to
Baron Cederstrom, a Swedish nobleman.
The courtship was a most romantic one,
and although older han her betrothed,
Madame Patti hardly looks her years.
Notwithstanding that she is in her 56th
year, she is still a most charming and
beautiful woman, and up to the time of
Sig. Nicolini's illness there was scarcely
a line suggesting years or care in the
great diva's fascinating face. IT is easy
to believe that Baron CederstrOm has
fallen a victim to the lovely singers
charms of name and person.
Adelina PATHS career has been an in
~terrupted succession of triumphS. She
has accomplished the miracle of outlast-
ing in fame two generations of operate
singerS-for Nine. Patti has been before
the public since she was 10 years of age,
and she has never really had a serious
rival during the two score years of her
artistic career. She came of a musical
family and was born in Spain in 1S43.
From babyhoOd the little Adelina was
pronounced a vocal phenomenon, and,

THE COPPER
SITUATION
Increase in the Production
Last Year.
THE PRICE IS GOING UP
Popularity of the Position of the Red
Metal--The RumOred Comb
ina:iOn of Mines.
THE PRICE IS GOING UP

New York, Jan. 25.-According to the
official figures of copper production in
the United States last year there was an
output from the Montana, Lake Superior
and Arizona mining localities which ex-
ceeded that of 1897 by over $4,000 tons.
The close of the year, however, notwith-
standing the larger production, found
stocks almost exhausted both in this
country and in Europe. Mr.. John STAN
ton, the statistician of the copper manu-
featuring industries, in discussing the
situation with a representative of the
New York Times, took the view that
higher prices must come and that still
greater increase of production will be
necessary to meet growing demands.
Mr.. Stanton said:
While the production of copper for
1898 shows considerable increase over
that of 1897, and is by far the largest
production ever made in this country,
the consumption has also been very large,
especially since the close of hostillties
with Spain. Stocks in Europe as well as
in the United States at the close of the
year We're unusually low, there being
practically none in sight. AS a result,
copper has been making very rapid adj
vances, and it has been rather hard to
keep track of it for the past two weeks
or so. l should say that 16 cents is a fair
price for copper today, and that repre-
sents the highest figure reached in man,
years. Consumption is 50 large that it
looks, too, as ii a higher figure will be
obtained.
The popularity of copper's position is
that during the last few years Of depres-
sion the production has constantly been
increasing, and yet consumption had
"a ,r;a ~ III -fp .--I 1D--1
been steadily declining until now they
have reached the lowest point ever
known. The electrical industry is a very
important factor in the copper business,
and it's need of copper is growing greater.
Wherever railway or other construction
is going on, there is always a large de-
mand for copper in the form of brass
and a variety of other articles. And as
the electrical business advances by leaps
and bound it is no easy matter to tell
n quantity Of copper will in this way
be absorbed. Now that a betterment in
business generally is being felt, a great
stimulus has been given to the opening
of new mines and the development of
copper properties. 1t is apparent that
the existing mines have not capacity to
furnish the quantity that will be needed
IN the near future. Companies with gOod
prospects of becoming producers find that
their shares are eagerly sought after il
the general belief that copper mining
will be profitable.
on he copper combination. 1t is certain
that a combination of certain interest
may be effected, but as to a combination
Of all the producers, that is out Of tn

; tendency to consolidation, being ownct

, men, but where interests are very dis

Government Was Victorious

New York, Jan. 25.-The latest dis
patches from the Herald's correspondent
at Guayaquil report that a sanguinary bat
tie took place yesterday between the revo-
lutionists and government forces. The
fighting was desperate all day, the VIC
tory resting finally with the governments
army. The losses on both sides were
heavy. More than 400 men were killed and
SEQ were wounded. -Four hundred insur-
gents were taken prisoners. The rest of
the defeated rebels fled toward the prov
ince of Bolivar, holly pursued by the VIC
tOrious troops of President AlfarO. News
of a decisive engagement between the
forces of rebels and government troops
has been expected for some days. Recent
dispatches from Panama stated that the
rebels representing the clerical party de-
termined to overthrow the Alfaro edmin-
istration. had invaded Ecuador from Col
ombia and that an engagement was look
ed for at Tulcan, on the frontier.
