New York, Oct. 21.-A London special
says:
Referring to the recent outbreak OF
Anglophobans in Austria, the especially
influential Catholic organ, the VatASland,
publishes an article headed Lord Kitch-
ener as a Hangman." 1t says the COM
mander- in chief Of the British forces IN
South Africa, in despair of being able
to conquer the Beers by honest war. has
FOR long time had recourse to brutal
.ity His bloodthirstiness was formerly
restrained by the British government,
but it now appears that free hand has
been given to him.
The Vaterland goes on to say that the
announcement that Commandant Gen
eral Botha will meet violence by re-
prisals will convince all that the Beers
are not intimidated, but only exasper-
ated, by Lord IOtchener's inhumanlty.
The sanguinary seed sown by the Brit
lsh commander will produce a harvest
of blood, and none can blame the Boer
leaders if they have recourse to a terri

COPPER IN new YORK
GOTHAM METAL BROKERS SEEK
TO ENLARGE MARKET.
ANNUAL OUTPUT 10000 TONS
New York Trading Now Confined to
Lake Copper Which Constitutes
But One-ffth of Total
Production.
(By Associated PresS.)

(By Associated PreSS.)
New York, Oct. PA movement Is on
foot, according to the Journal of Com
merce, by which it is hoped to make New
York greater copper trading center. Tae
project originated in the New York metal
exchange where to the present time deal
ings have been confined exclusively to
lake copper.
The latter is produced by a few large
con Germs, of which the largest The Calu-
met & Hecla company. has a regular out
let through consuming channels for its
product.
In round numbers the total output of
lake copper is about $4,000 tons a year,
three-fifths of which is the product OF
the company above mentioned. The
yeally production Of all kinds of copper
in the United States amounts to about
270 coo tons. the lake output consequent
~ representing scarcely a fifth of the
total. 1t is proposed to change the
rule and esta blish a contract through
which dealings on a large scale, as In
other staples would be practicable. Since
there is no duty on foreign copper i'm
20. ted into the United States. the new
contract, it is learned, will be made to
include copper from all parts OF the
world, thus giving a total annual pro-
auction OF over 0VVVuU IONS DIS d OASIS VI
operations in the metal.
1t is also said that the proposed con-
tract will cover both the rough and re-
fined metal on the basis of not less than
e6 rer cent of fine copper, metal testing
under that not being agreed delivery.
This radical change from present meth
DDS of dealing in copper on the exchange
is expected by its projectors to open
new field for operation.

New York, Oct. 21.-Concerning the

attempt to blow up the house of Reese
Morgan, superintendent of the Murray
mine, and kill himself and family was
made last night.
Mr.. Morgan's home is on Grant street.
one of the resident thcroughfares of this
city. He had just opened the gate to
go into the house when terrific explo-
sion occurred, which nearly knocked him
off his feet. When he was able to coll
lect himself he saw that portion of his
dwelling had been wrecked. A further
investigation showed that the whole rear
portion of the house had been torn away
by the explosion.
The general supposition is that some
mine employe, who formerly worked for
Mr. Morgan, and who imagined he had a
grievance, is at the bottom of the plot.

that a microphone attached to an elec-
