Copper Should ADJ
n

1t seems to be the opinion OF
competent authorities that copper
will advance in price. Comment
ing on the general situation the
Financial News of New York City
predicts a gradual rise as the re-
suit of the agreement between the
large producers and the increased
demand for the article from the
manufactures. 1t is a generally
conceded fact that the demand has
about overtaken the supply. When
the price declined many Of the
small mines were forced to shut
down. Results have proved that
the apprehension that there would
be a large surplus in the red metal
was absolutely unfounded. The
situation now is quite the contrary.
Many of the new miners have fail
ed to show up as expected, in a
number OF cases the cost of pro-
duction having wiped out the
chance of profitable returns.
1t also has been plainly shown
that small water jacket furnaces
and smelters of limited capacity
a no longer be depended on to
produce satisfactory results and
modern wholesale methods are the
only ones that can be used to adj
vantage. The elimination of the
little fellows that have curtailed
the production to a great extent.
Another feature that is consid-
cred potent in the situation is the
general electrizingof roads through
out the country. Steam roads are
being changed over and new in
terurDan trolley llne5a are being pro-
jected, drawing a veritable network
all over the face of the United
States, whilethe application OF cleo
tricity is intramural use in large
buildings is increasing in still
greater ratio. All this calls for an
overgrowing demand for copper,
for which there is no present sub
stitute. With a curtailed supply
and a general increase in demand,
the re seems to be no reason why
prices should not be ruled by the
old principle Of supply and de-
mand.-L. A. EXPIRES.

About seventy thousand immi-
grants from Europe are landing in
New York every month. A good
many pc ople think they + COM
ing too fast, that the assimilatiye
capacity of this country is about
to be overtaxed. But in one di-
rection at least there is no danger.
Surprising that half who comes
are children, and that 10 per cent
of oil the corners are independent
we have left something over thirty
thousand who want work. II half
these are females then there ought
to be about fifteen thousand young
women seeking employment.
There are six million homes in
this country and about five mill
ion of these each want from one to
three young women to cook, mako
beds, dust, and once every year or
two, wash a window. If there are
fifteen thousand of these a month
and the rush continues, it will
mean one hundred and eighty thou
sand a year. AT this ratio it will re-
quire about thirty years to meet the
demand. When we reflect that half
the corners are not worth 30 cents
an acre the prospect is a little dis
couraging, but we must hope for
the best. Much deserved praise
is just now being bestowed upon
Senator Clark and associates be-
cause of a prospect of a coming
railroad. But that appropriation
is nothing to what would be the
appreciation of the man or woman
who would bring here five hun
bred girls willing to do house
work, willing to do it cheerfully
and capable of boiling water with
out burning it.

The Berlin Mine.

This mine is noteworthy on ac-
cou mt Of the numerous breaks in
the ledge caused by immense slides
in the formation, the walls and
ledge at places having been thrown
on both foot and hanging wall side
several feet from what is believed
to be the true course. Rarely does
the ledge continue ON its course
for more than 30 feet, and in some
parts the breaks are even more
frequent. The mine is situated at
Berlin, Nye county, Nevada, 40
miles from Luning, on the Carson
aud Colorado railroad, and is own
ed by the Nevada Company, of
which Mr.. j. G.. Phelps Stokes is
president. Berlin is on the west
Elm slope of the San Antonio range,
about 70 miles north west of Ton
opah. The company previously
worked mines at Austin, and built
a railway from Battle Mountain,
on the Southern Pacific, 80 miles,
and supplies for the Berlin mine
are conveyed over that road and
hauled SO miles to the mine. The
mine isopened up by an incline
shaft 800 feet deep at an angle of
about 40 degrees, which was start
ed on the ledge but, owing to the
breaks referred to, is at places in

hanging wall being quartzite. The
average width of the ledge is four
and one-half feet, frozen to both
