COMMERCIAL REPORT.


New York, Oct. 25.-Bradstreet'l
commercial report says: Favorable
features still dominate the trade and
industrial situation. Some reduction
in the demand for fall and winter
goods at Wholesale is noted, but II
is shown at the same time that the
completed business in dry goods,
clothing, shoes, hats, millinery and
a host Of other lines is in excess Of
1901 and preceding years.
The situation in the iron trade is
full Of interest. While pig iron is
frmer and the coke shortage contin-
ues, necessitating shut-downs in the
Pennsylvania valleys, and high premi-
ums are paid for immediate delivery
Of what little iron is available, steel
billets have weakened, partially be-
cause Of the efforts Of foreign i'm
ports, but also because Of less urgent
demand from some finishing mills.
A cut in the prices Of wire and nails
has already had the effect Of en-
couraging consumption. Hardware
retains exceptional activity both for
light and heavy sorts and consider
able sales of builders hardware for
next season are reported at differ
'ent markets.
Wheat, including -four, exports for
the week ended October %, aggre-
gate 7,o6O,317 bushels, against $780,

Populist Chairman Cancelled Dates.

Dallas, Tex, Oct. 27.-Jo A. Parker,
national chairman of the populist
party, notified the populist state
committee Saturday in Dallas that
he has found it necessary to cancel
all his Texas dates for public speak
ing. His reasons given are that the
campaign in Missouri is so important
that his time for campaigning should
be employed exclusively there, also
that he has to devote much attention
to his duties as president of the Ma
tional Industrial federation.

Col. Rutledge last night promoted

REMEDY FOR TRUSTS
ALL CORPORATIONS TO REPORT TO IT


Emporis, Kan, Oct. 29.-The Whit
ley opera house was crowded last
night 10 hear Senator Dolliver, o.
Iowa, make his only speech in Kan
sas during this campaign. Last sum
mer he promised Chester l. Long
that he would make one speech in
Kansas and the state central com
mittee requested that he make 1t in
Emporia. He opened his speech by
giving a touching tribute to the mem.
ory Of the late Senator Plumb and
Congressman Miller.
Senator Dolliver said he was in q
quandary to know what the para
mount issue is. He brought loud
cheers when he said it was his opin-
ion that the republican party's para
mount issue is "to hold on to the
fortunate and prosperous business
conditions that the people are now
enjoying" This prosperous condi-
ton, Senator Dolliver said, was char
acteristic Of the record Of the repub-
lican party and was due more to
Providence than to any acts Of con-
gress. However, he added, Provi-
dence was always on the side Of the
republican party. Senator Dolliver
said he believed there should be
changes in the tariff, and that It
should be lowered in every particu-
lar where the reduction will enlarge
the markets Of the country. He ad-
vocated reciprocity, not only with
Cuba, but with all the islands over
the United States has control.
The raids on the trusts, he said,
are ON q weak foundation, as is the
statement that q protec-
tive tariff Is the cause of trusts. He
thought the corporations Of the
country should be compelled by law
10 make an annual report Of their
financial standing to the government,
and said he would endeavor to have
\ new department Of commerce or
at the national capitol, and
that corporations should make an
nual reports to it in order that the
people Of the country may know
what kind Of stocks they are buying.
He said 1t appeared to him there
was little prospect Of a remedy for
The so-called trust evils.
The democrats also had campaign
'peaking here last night by Thomas
B. Grisham and John Atwood. Two
,rass bands, fireworks and torchlight
,arades made things look like a real
political campaign.

OPERATIONS AT PICACHO
Senator Pettigrew to Be General Man
 ager of Del Monte Mines.

Hon. Harry Carpenter returned from Picacho last Thursday. says the Yuma Sentinel. He reports that the eXcava- tion for the 1000-ton reduction works is about completed. The five large boilers are in place and the erection Cf the building is under way. Mel Green leaf. formerly section foreman on the Southern Pacific. has accepted the po- sition of superintendent of construc- tiOn on the railroad from the mines to the reduction works. distance Of five miles, and work on that branch of the enterprise is now under wly. The mines are being put in condition to supply the great quantity of ore which will be daily required to keep the mann moth reduction plant going. but the ore bodies are of such magnitude that it will take many years Co exhaust the supply. even at the rate of 1,G01 tons per day.
 The company is erecting q store ;it the mines, and all the indications are that Picacho is to become one of the greatest mining camps in the United States.
 The Rio Del Monte Gold Mines com pany. which owns the group of mines lEliS bStN Stu IidI'ltii i1dId dIIt Hal risburg, in Yuma county. is about 10 commence the erection of an S0-Stamp mill on the property. and within the next sixty days active operations will be under way. The late eX" "minatioas made by several eminent mining men have resulted in satisfactory reports. and these mines promise to equal in output the famous Harqua Hala mines. which were at one time great pro- ducers. The Del Monte mines are about three and half miles from Har- qua Hala. Ex-United States Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota will ',e general manager of the property.

 According to Mr. Manning. there are now 4aep men on the pay roll of the Cananra Consolidated Copper com pany- The company has store at Ro- quillo. and supplies all of their ein- ployes at that point. Any one is per- mitted to come in and establish busi- ness at the new town site where he town "t Canarea is to be located. The cOmpany. however. expects to establish a big store there.

being carried on steadily. The last work done on the Pocahontas resulted in the discovery of a new ore body containing good gold values.
 On the Bonanza and Fairview claims. owned by Jack McNeff. a fine showing has been made. and the prop erty is well opened up. There is in sight on the Bonanza a four-foo ledge which samples where exposed $31 gold to the ton. The most important strike lately made in this district was on new location known as the Roosevelt mine, owned by Joseph Howell
 The ore on this vein is said to be very rich in gold. Mr. Howell also has over 1000 feet of work done on the Purple Rose. which shows good values in all the workings.
 Jeff Bland has something in the na- ture of novelty in the way of reduc- ton plants in operation on tributary of Bonanza wash The values in the ore on his claims are high in gold and the character of the ore is soft and easily crushed by means of an ar rastra. The tailings from the arrastra are conducted to a cyanide plant and by the process in vogue all of the val ues are saved.
 The shaft on the Cowboy mine. Santa Maria river. is now down DO feet. The vein is twenty-three inches in width and contains shipping ore. the values being principally in silver. This mine belongs to J. D. Shipp.
 Hank Williams and partner have just completed q wagon road to their property. Q distance of three miles from Piacerita. They have attained Q depth on their shaft of 123 feet. and are placing q Whim on the mine
 Jack Potts and partners have re- gently located number of gold lodges at the head of Placer gulch. From in dications they believe that these veins are the same that have supplied the large quantities of placer gold that has been mined in that country
 The only surprising thing to visito' at Eureka district and along the SantG Maria river is that capital has not beer to any extent in the develop ment of the mineral resources that are strongly indicated all over the surface of this country. It is only matter of time, however, when opera tions will be carried on by good companies in this portion of Yavapai county, as extens~ lively as they now are in nearly all of the other districts.
