Pounds.

NJ ontana, Michigan and ArlZona were producers. The Montana output showed decrease of 75 per cent.
 The Lake Superior copper mines showed an increase in production of S.9-per cent, and speaking of Arizona the Engineering and Mining Journal says: The feature of the year was the great increase of 37.2 per cent. in the output of the Arizona mines, which in 1898 was 20.4 per cent. of the total against l5.S per cent in 1897. The large increase was due entirely to the activity of the old and well known mines. The Arizona Copper company, the Detroit. the Copper Queen Con- solidated and the United Globe were all large producers, and the United Verde especially was exceedingly active. Improved transportation fa- cilities and the higher price of the metal joined in stimulating production. A number of new mines are being brought forward, but none Of these were active producers in 1898.

College athletics occupied the attention of
large body of representatives of the In
diana universities yesterday. The meeting
of the Indiana Intercollegiate Athletic AS
ISOLATION was called to order by President
Whallen at the Denison at 2 O'clock. Finan-
cial affairs Of the association occupied the
most of the time allotted to the meeting
1t was decided that hereafter the expenses
of the annual field day should be borne by
the different universities sending track
teams to the contest. The last meeting of
the college field day sports showed a deficit
IN the treasury. There was a complicated
condition of the associations finances in
consequence. 1t was shown that many of
the colleges had not paid their assessments.
1t was decided that, at the next field day
the expense of sending its own field team
Each college will then bear the proportion
ate expense in case of a deficit in the re-
ceipts or will share the dividend in case of
a prosperous day.
The new officers of the association elected

DE PAW ORATOR WINS
GEO. e. FARRAR'S ELOaUENCE AND
THOUGHT GIVEN HIGHEST HANK.
The Scene at Plymouth Church-What
the Orators said - The
Girls Part.

A riot of college students occurred last
night at Plymouth Church. During d calm
seven young men delivered oraJions into
which they put their whole beings, as earn
estly as they had put their brains and time
in preparation, and then the riot began
again The De PAW students had the bet
ter of it, for their representative-Georg
i. Farrar-was named as the winner of the
contest. The Butler boys, over-confident,
had taken possession of the platform and
the organ; and before the decision was an
nounced they were the biggest ducks in the
puddle, but when De PAW was announced
as the winner the delegation from that col
lege forced the indianapolis men off the
platform and, incidentally, broke down
part of the choir rail- The object of the
contest was not to gain learning from the
hearing. of orations, but to gain victory and
fame for a college and it was this spirit
which ruled the crowd and led the different
delegations to spend their breath in trying
to out yell and out sing each other. The
result was unified tumult of the most in
spring. breast heaving and eye-glistening
kind. Those who filled the seats of the
mighty of this excited throng did not raise
their voices in yells and song, for they were
the dignified judges of the ability of the
orators. and after the contest they sat in
back room and counted up cold hard figures
while the students were spending their en-
thusiasm. These unseen, pre-eminent forces
were:
On delivery-Judges Black. Henley and
Francis h. Baker.

The judges gave lie aaw first place, Earl
ham second and Butler third 1t was an
nounced privately after the contest that
Judge Hackney, who had been appointed a
judge of delivery, had declined because he
had received a letter from one of the coll
legeS concerned, presuming to attempt to in
huence his decision. The following table
shows the score of the contest, the names
of the colleges appearing in the rank they
took. The names of the judges not
printed at the top Of the percentage

cd in their decisions without their names
and the committee did not care to run the
risk of crediting one judge with another's
scoring.

HUFF'S RECORD
May Show Up Against Him in His Com
ing Trial.

Edward Huff was brought before Judge
Cox yesterday in Police Court, charged with
the murder of his father, William Huff, but
a continuance of the case until next Fri
day being granted. no evidence was taken
The continuance was allowed on the repre-
sentation of the detective department
through Captain Colbert, that further time
vas needed to investigate the facts of the
mysterious affair. Huff is still protesting
his innocence of the crime and the de-
tectives were in North Indianapolis yes
terday investigating the case with a view
to substantiating or proving false some of
HUFF claims. They were reported to be
about to make another arrest on evidence
that has come before them since young Huff
was arrested but they made none during
the night. One thing that Will tell against
Edward Hutf'S claims at the trial will be his
reputation as it is found in the police rec
ords 1t is shown that at one time he held
up Patrolmen Rooms and Jackson, who at
tempted 20 arrest him, pointing a rifle at
their heads and refusing to surrender. The
detectives say that a quarrel between Huff
and his father two days before the shooting
inclines them to believe that bad feeling
existed between the father and son at the
time of the formers death.

Funernl of Hicks,s victim.

The funeral of Mrs. Josephine Romhilt,
proprietress of the Illinois House, who was
shot ny Fritz Hicks, was held yesterday
afternoon at O'Clock.
The accused murderer had a conference
with his attorney yesterday morning, and
after this talk closed his mouth to inter-
viewers lie changed his clothing, refusing
to show TO those who were permitted to see
him the hole in his coat and vest and the
denied suspender buckle that he showed
Thursday as evidence Of a shooting in self
defense. If his defense is to be made on
that issue, Hicks legal advisers have de-
cided that the less said about it al present
the stronger will be his case. The detec-
tives have not found anything that will
support liicks's statement except the two
bullet holes in the wall OF the hotel laun-
dry, which, together with the bullet wounds
in the body of the dead woman, seem to
substantiate the claim that there were five
shots fired.

SECURE The FUTURE

Every man and woman having property
to leave at death should make a will and
thus fix their intentions in binding form.
1t is unwise to neglect this duty. The
Union Trust Company invites consultation
about the making of wills and the estab-
lishment of trusts. Where this company
is named as sole executor wills will be pre-
pared without cost Wills can be left on
deposit without charge.
