Control Copper OUTPUT.

st. Louis Republic.
The most significant fact IN the
copper situation is that the worlds
output is 10 controlled by the Rookie
fellers and Rpthschilds. They have
entered into a trade agreement to
limit the output and regulate prices
at least such is the understanding Of
men who are we'll informed about the
conditions Of trade here and abroad.
This accounts for the maintenance
of the price of lake copper at and
around IL cents for months, although
the consumption abroad has fallen off
measurably and prices would naturally
have tended downward.
Reports were circulated that u
colossal copper combination, with a
capital v%ariously estimated at between
5000, 600, coo and 81, 900, 00O, 900, was
forming.
From trustworthy sources it was
learned Thursday that up to the
present time, there is no idea of the
acquisition of the American Smelling
Company, but it was said to be true
that the Amalgamated may take IN
certain other copper properties, in
ending Senator William A. Clark's
United Verde mills, the Calumet and
Hecla, Boston and Montana and Butte
and Boston.

Better Train Service.
Richmond Conservator.

"The people Of Richmond need, aud
ought TO have better train service.
Our business is large enough 10 merit
1t and our people should demand it. II
IL cannot be bad from the Santa Fe,
then an effort should be made to have
some other road tap our town. The
Wabash main line Is only Az miles
south OF US, and its managers might,
with the proper Inducements, be per-
suaded to build a branch road to Rich
mond, 1t could be so constructed as
to open up a maniicent coal field, in
addition to a large volume of business
it would draw by such an enterprise.
If this cannot be done, what is tolninder
US from having an electric line between
Richmond and Lexington Junction,
and even as far as North Lexington.
Such an enterprise would be Of great
benefit to the town and would be a pay
ing one to Its promoters"
II Richmond people mean business
on a Richmond Lexington electric line,
they might find a helping hand IN Lex
