TEN HOURS FOR
THE ARGUMENTS
Time Allotted to Each Side in
C0luSa-Parr0t Case.
To COMMENCE MONDAY
Judge Knowles Declines Invitation to
Visit Ground-The 500
CrOSS-Cut.
To COMMENCE MONDAY

All the evidence in the big mining suit
in the United States court was in last
When all the evidence had been
submitted, Governor Thomas for the
defendants and Attorney Cotter for the
plaintiffs expressed a desire that Judge
visit the ground in dispute. The
udge' however, said that he felt that he
could not stand the journey through the
mine, climbing ladders and walking
miles of workings and he would
nave to decline the invitation. Thu ar
guments In the case will begin at 10
O'CLOCK Monday morning and it was
agreed that each side should have ten
hours.
When court convened after the noon re-
cess yesterday Attorney Cotter for thu
plaintiffs said he desired to put some wit
nesses on the stand to testify in rebuff
tai relative to the 800 Never Sweat cross
cut. Judge Knowles said such testimony
would not be proper rebulttal, but If the
plaintiff desired to open its case again
At could do SO. Professor Tower was then
recalled. He said that the first knowl-
edge he had Of this 800 crosscut was on
Thursday when Mr.. Chase gave his testi-
mony. He visited it that afternoon and
took several samples. He found heav-
amount of pyrite and a certain amoun Of
copper %sulphide. From his samples he
made a glass slide in which by the aid of
a microscope, copper stain could be seen.
Cross-examined by Governor Thomas,
Mr.. Tower said this material was taken
from the face of the crosscut. Asked if
he was requireu to tax a microscope to
find the copper in the rock, Prof. Tower
said hat a han sample would show 1T.
Colonel Keyes corroborated Mr.. overs
evidence and said that the vein was about
Is or 16 feet wide. He had found consid-
cradle soft granite which he took to be.
the beginning Of the alteration Of the
granite to vein matter. He considered
this a portion Of the Colusa-Parrot vein.
In order to be vein matter it needed but
little value as the character Of the ma
terial was more essential. Colonel keyes
thought that by extending this working
on the 800 about ten feet good merchant
able ore would be found. "
r.. u. Sizer also said he had never heard
Of the famous crosscut before Thursday.
At. a distance of II feet from the slopes in
the Anaconda He had found the beginning
OF a vein extending about ID feet so1th
which contained pyrites similar t1 that
found outside the ore chutes all through
the mine. Z.
| George H.. Robinson also testified that
the news OF h S0O-foot crczscut had been
rudely broken to him on the day previous
and he had then visited it. He felt con-
fdent that a continuation of the vein
would be found there. There was vein
material in abundance. He was positive
that it was an extension of the Colusa-
Parrot vein.
| Assayer Pyle the last witness testified
to ASSAYS made of samples taken from the
crosscut Thursday night. The samples
| assayed 1.76 per cent copper.

THE P

New York advices are all to the effect
that the market for copper is steadily i'm
proving. One dispatch says:
The steady large demand for copper
shows no sign of cessation, n the many
of outlet for the metal make it
possible for producers to sell as soon as
they have the copper ready to ship. In
fact, sales have been made months in ad-
vance before even the rock is stamped or
the crude metal refined. By this method
the mining companies are able to obtain
current market prices for deliveries
months ahead, thus getting a fixed price
for whatever quantity they sell, and also
avoiding interest charges for carrying
copper. IN industry so favorably situat-
ed cannot fail to be more than ordinarily
1t is reasonably possible for copper pro-
ducers to approximately estimate their
earnings for the first six months of this
year. With a minimum price of 16 cents
and a maximum of Z cents and the output
of the different companies known, by de-
Quoting casts, an intelligent estimate Of
the profits may be derived. An average
price Of Is 1-2 for Calume & Hecla's pro-
duct of say SO. 1000. 900 pounds for the first
six months of the current year., and a
cost +. o. b. dock New York of 6 1-2 cents
would leave a net profit of $751; 0 900 or $50
per share for the first half of 1900, and at
the rate of 500 per share for the year.
If the Boston & Montana lays down it's
copper at same cost as Calumet & Hecla
with a product of IS, 900, 900 pounds for the
first half of this year, n an average
price of 16 1-2 realized thereon the net
profit would be s.. 500, 900 or $23.33 per
share for six months, and at the rate Of
$46.6 &c a share per annum. Should an av-
erage of II cents be realized for the whole
year the profits of the two companies
above mentioned, based on foregoing es-
Inmates. would amount to $105 per share
for Calumet & Hecla and $40 per share
for Boston & Montana. These earnings
would be equivalent to IA per cent per an
mum for the Calumet & Hecla and
il. 81 per cent, per annum at $500 a share
for Boston & Montana.
Inasmuch as the market for copper Is
now quoting II for electrolytic and THO
1714 for lake and with the prospect of an
advancing tendency h earnings of the
companies named for 1900 may even ex-
coed the above estimates. An average

THE COPPER MINING SHARES.
A CASE R%EINSTATED.

The first matter heard by Judge
Clancy today was a motion to set aside
the order previously made dismissing the
suit OF Louis T. Ruhle against Hannah
Sterberg. an action involving a .proTnis-
sorry note.
A short time ago the case vas called
for trial, but neither the plaintiff nor his
legal representatives were present n
it was stricken from the trial docket for
want Of prosecution. There had been an
understanding between the court n
the plaintiffs attorneys, however, regard
ing the case, but the judge did not think
of it at the time the dismissal was or
dered. Accordingly. he expressed the
belief today that it was his duty to re-
instate the cause and he did it. In rem
dering his decision he referred to the
condition of his trial calendar in a gen.
eral way. saying among other things.
that it contained many "Old sleepers,"
which were allowed to grace it's pages
because the attorneys liked to see their
names attached to them. At the time
the Ruhle-Stenberg case was dismissed,
he had a jury. he said. which was draw
ing about 500 per day from the Golfers
of the county. He desired to keep the
members of it at work, and when a case
was called for trial and the parties to it
failed to respond it was the duty of the
court to dismiss it.

IN PROFITS TO DATE

The Boston & Montana company has
declared it's second dividend for the cur
rent calendar year, amounting to 80 per
share payable May % to stock holders OF
record April 80. The last dividend of 81 was
declared three months ago, making $lS
for the year thus far. At this rate the
company's declaration that it would pay
$40 per share for the year will be fully
sustained.
The Boston & Montana's total disburse-
ments to stockholders, including the last
dividend. will amount to the grand total
of SIT, 225, 900, and nearly all within the
last six years. In 1894 the dividends
amounted to 81: in 1895, 81; in 1896, SO; in
1897, $12: in 1898, SIG; in 1898, $36 and from
present indications the company will pay
about $45 during 1900.
According to the last annual report Of
the the mines of the Boston &
Montana were never in better condition
for the extraction of ore, large reserves
of which have been blocked out during the
operations of last year. The plant of the
company at Great Falls has also been in
creased and the outlook for future divi-
dends is most promising.

ON THE BIG

J. X. Waite. general manager of the
Montana Copper Co., properties on the
Big Blackfoot river, is in the city today
to attend a meeting of the directors of
the company. Mr.. Waite says that the
tunnel work on the claims is progressing
favorably and that within a month the
main ore body will be reached at a depth
of about 500 feet from the surface. If
the ore body proves as rich and wide
at that depth as nearer the surface, Mr..
Waite says that the country will become
one of the greatest copper producing dis
tricts in the west. Lack of t~ranspOrta-
ton facilities a handicapped the dis
trict heretofore, but with the perma-
nency of it's mammoth ore bodies assured
this drawback will be easily overcome

them the protection of the American gar
riSon.
At the first step, however. there was more
trouble. Nobody wanted to serve the
election board. This service, they felt,
would mark them leaders in the Amer
lean movement-and the katipunan would
do the rest. Some of the excuses offered
were childlike. One man of wealth, who
had probably a dozen servants in his house.
gave as his excuse for not serving that he
had sick mother at home. and that If he
give her medicine regularly his poor old
mother would die. Finally, however. an
election board composed of three excellent
representative men was chosen.
The duty Of the board consisted In inqur-
ing into the qualification Of the electors
registering and administering the oath of
allegiance to such as were found qualified.
making an alphabetical list OF those found
qualified. listening to and deciding on COM
plants of the registry list. holding the cleo
ton and making due return of the same.
Qualifications for Suffrage.
