MR.. LEWISOHN'S VIEWS.

MI. Leonard Lewisohn, of LewiNhn
Bros. & Co.. in an interview in the Eos-
ton News Bureau, avs Il notice some
very absurd foreign circulars upon the
copper market. especially that by James
Lewis & Son of Liverpool. The fact is,
per market, n they are now having to
settle. In fact the copper shorts are
having to settle on both sides of the wa
ter. One of the big shorts in this coun-
try settled this week.
I'm view of the purchases of copper
upon an extensive scale by Germany.
England and France and the increasing
Use of copper in the extension of the elec-
trio field, I can see no reason to look for
lower prices for copper in the immediate
future.
w have 10 a very strong market
for copper, such a market as has surprise
ed the copper companies as we'll as the

when copper reacted from above IS cents

stead Of a further decline there is an ad-
vance mi a * copper is being sold at

We are not only sold up for substantially
we are oversold for March deliveries, and
we are sold ahead for April and May and
somewhat into June to an unprecedented
extent.
O course we are doing a much larger
business than last ear, as we represent
more companies. but proportionately we
are sold ahead to as great an extent as
we have ever been in our history. The
demand Is universal n on both sides Of

advancing prices or by putting OF deliv-
cries to a less active period. We shall

NEARING COMPLETION.

OF the improvements in progress at
the plant of the Boston & Montana. the
Great Falls Leader says:
The work on the Boston & Montana
concentrator is rapidly nearing compile
tion. and it rushes the. carpenters and
others at work on the, construction to
keep out OF the way of the men who are
putting in the machinery. part of which
was moved in yesterday. Some of the
Jigs have been placed in position and
others are being moved into the building
preparatory to setting up. The slime ta-
bles. too, are under process of manufac-
ture and the end Of the month win see
a great change in the aspect of affairs
in the large building. 1t is said that
nearly all the machinery for the concen-
traitor Is made right here, or of materials
made here, even the screen being made
from copper smelted at the works.
The roofing is all done except putting
the tar on, II this latter work is pro-
ceeding merrily. In the meantime the
company is hiring all the machinists,
steam filters n mechanics that come
along to assist in putting in the machin-
cry, giving them temporary work until
they are needed in setting up the jigs and
tables. ..
The building is being whitewashed In
side. sides, roof, n all. but the tradi-
tlonal darkey with his whitewash brush
has been relegated to the rear and the
work is being done in a more modern
way. The whitewash is brought in in
barrels and distributed over the wood by
means of a hose and a length of gaspipe,
through which the whitewash is dlstrib-
uted by means of air pressure, 80 pounds
pressure being necessary to distribute
the material in good shape and the work
being done at the rate of about 800 or
400 square yards per day.
Other improvements contemplated by
the Boston & Montana company will. soon
be commenced and 1t is expected that the
busy appearance at the smelter will be
kept up all summer. n that many men
will be employed in other construction
work and improvements.

Commenting on the Lewisohn interview
which appears in this issue the Boston
Statist says:
The Lewisohn interview, published yes
terday, which started with a dissertation
on the firmness of the market for copper.
and ended with a strong tip to buy Mon
tana, was quite generally taken as hav-
ing something of more than ordinary
significance behind it. Mr.. Lewiston
does not often favor the public with his
views on the copper market. and even
more seldom with his idea of the value
"We shall try to keep the copper market
steady" undoubtedly meant that the
market will be kept steady.
The representative Of "a leading broker
age house said: II am convinced that the
Lewisohn interview is one of the OPEN
pers. The metal market certainly is
strong; it is practically as strong as it
was when the highest prices of last year
were ruling. Copper stocks are in

that the coppers are in the best po-
sition of any issues on the board"
1t is figured in speculative circles that
the Montana should earn at least $45 per
this year, and that it ought to pay
fully as much as last year, II not more.
Some believe that $40 per share will be
paid. The nnu report, just issued, was
certainly very satisfactory and it un-

Eastern Opinion of Boston &
Montana Showing.
COMPARISONS ARE MADE
Increase in Production and Profits
LewiSOhn'S Predictions Re-
garding the Stock.

Boston & Montana presents a magntfl-
cent exhibit for 1899. Gross receipts at
$l1, 257. $50 were SO. 800. 900 larger than in
1898 and net earnings at $6,O54,S $40 We're
-, 700. 900 larger than in 1898. Last year
the company earned practically $40 per
share on it's $50, 900 share capital, says the
Boston News Bureau.
The company does not report it's re-
fined copper output or detail its produc-
ton costs. 1t is known. however, that
It received an average of about 15c. for
it's copper, and on this basis the produc-
ton somewhat exceeded 5000. 900 lbs. of
copper. and the cost on this basis was
therefore &c. a pound including all con-
struction. The cost was slightly higher
than in 1898 when 65.0 00.O 900 lbs. were pro-
duced. but this was presumably due to
advance in all kinds of structural MATER
ial, etc. The real operating cost per
pound was slightly less.
It is important to notice that directors
state that a considerable saving is con-
templated In treatment costs, and that
an increased product hay be expected
this year. These two factors coupled
with the prospects of a considerably
higher selling price to the mpa for
Its copper in 1900 than prevailed in 1899,
should, barring accidents, result in in
creased net earnings for the current
year.
1t should be borne in mind, however,
that in bringing about operating econom-
les heavy construction charges are ne
'ccssary, and as these construction items
are charged against operating expenses.
a certain amount Of the net Increase in
earnings will be absorbed in this way.
Earnings Of $40 a share or better, and
dividends of at a $36 per share for
1900 would seem to be a reasonable ex.
.~pectatiOn.
Boston & Montana's surplus assets are
equal to $34 per share exclusive OF ST.
100000 stock in process, and exclusive of
any value for mines, plant and smelter.

The answers came in confused
chorus. Cries of Speech were inter
mingled with cries of turkey"

ECONOMY IN EATING.

TFrem the New York World
It is not at all likely that any large
number of American citizens will be in
spired to follow the example of the for
eign lady who sustains a vivacious ex-
istence on a penny a day for raw wheat.
nor viii they be attracted by the prom
Use Of an invigorating sustenance on the
larger outlay OF fifteen cents. 1t is not
desirable that they should.
It is possible that the abolition of the
saloons. distilleries and brewerjes which
would be involved in the new scale of
living might be a good thing. It would
strike a deadly blow at the Meat Trust
and the champagne habit. But it would
be hard to have to close all our hotels,
restaurants, bakeries, butcher shops,
confectioneries, fish stands. lunch coun-
ters. soda fountains and other min
istrants to the present depraved and
vicious scale of overlooking.
It would be a serfsus problem to pro-
vide new employment for the armies
Of labor thus deprived of a living. They
could not turn to agriculture, FOR the
farmer would be looking for his lost
market. Even the consoling assurance
that they could live well on fifteen cents
a day would have a CHASTITY flavor of
irony in it in the absence Of any GER
tainty of earning the fifteen cents.
The objections of this method OF cor
recting the evils Of overfeeding are not
wholly or even chiefly theoretical. The
oretica1ly economy is the road to wealth;
practically and as a matter of fact the
economizers remain poor. We know
something of the people of China and
India-nearly One-half the population of
the world. They are said to sustain life
on a per capita expenditure of less than
ten cents a day for food They ought
to be perfectly healthy and immensely
rich In fact they are as poor now as
when they started. and if they are
healthy they don't look it. At any rate,
if the choice is given to the average
American between his present wasteful
diet and the ideal economy held up to
him as a means of health and riches.

own scale OF living ia that Of China or

In awarding the prizes to the prize
winners, Mr.. J. Z. Nissley said:
4 have often said it before and say
it again, here: The newsboys Of Topeka
are not the objects of charity. but they
are band of wholesouled, honest, and
energetic workers.
"They are engaged in a vocation Pc
culiarly their own. Their cries heard
above the tumult of the street as they
run through our public buildings and the
quieter residence streets, are music to my
ears
I'VE need them. They are the messen-
gers who bring to US the daily press.
They are indispensable to us, and it is
our duty to do all in our power to help
them along
