THE SITUATION OF
 THE COPPER MARKET
A Depression But Hopes Are
 Entertained
THE PRICE WILL COME UP

The copper mines in this section are very much depressed over the drop in copper but m nearly every case the owners are taking out ore and work is being carried CD. Some however, have closed down swai,iug developments. If copper should stay at the present low figure or go lower it would be quite a blow ct the pros perity this section of She territory has experienced during the past few years, q. the vast bodies of copper ores are ust getting in @ developed state. However. this part of the territory contains large universal deposits of gold. lead, iron and other. numerous metals which are being mined in large quantities, Owners oi copper prop critics are confident that within ninety days the copper market will become settled and the price will go back to fair figure and consequently are con- tinuing work.
