THE REsuMPTIoN oF WoRK.

The announcement Of the settlement Of
the present diiiculties between employed
and employer in the granite industry Of
this city and vicinity is received with sat
isfaction BY practically every person
whether he be connected directly with the
Industry or whether he be dependent to a
degree upon the progress Of that industry
and all are interested to some degree
Letting alone the question Of right and
wrong in the discussion and without at
tempting to 90 into the merits OF the case
at all, it Is apparent that the result "a re-
sumption Of work Is what all desire, al
though there must necessarily be diver
genee Of opinion regarding the canses
leading up to that result All who desire to
see the industry prosper and, themselves,
know that break in the continuity Of
the business results disastrously to all
classes, whether the break is oecasioned
by the manufacturers or BY the workmen,
In this particular Instance there was no
great apprehension that the difficulty
would be Of long duration, but a cessation
Of work, no matter how long or how short
it Is, makes unsettled conditions which are
not beneficial to anyone. The present
suspension was only Of day and half in
duration, but It was long enough. There
Is much reason for eongratulation that the
matter Is settled.

Stiles Seen
 Near MagddIena
REPORT REACHES DOUGLAS THAT STILES AND TWO AMERICANS WERE SEEN
 NEAR THERE RECENTLY.

Columbus Durnall. brother of Jim Durnall. constable of this city, arriv- ed in Douglas yesterday morning. He has been prospecting in the Magdale- na district of Sonora for some time He rode ever from Magdalena on horseback and states that he met Bill iy Stiles, the outlaw, on the road and thinks that is still in that vicinity.
 Mir Durnall has resided in Mexico and southern Arizona for many years and has personally known Stiles for about ten years Although he did not speak with the outlaw he is abso- lutely certain that he passed him while travelling between Magdalena and Cerro Prieto mines. There Na=e five men in the party he met, three Americans ana two Mexicans. One of the Americans he recognized as men who are prospecting in the Lills and they told him the outlaw was Tn the vicinity.
 It is the opinion of all who have seen Stiles ana the party of which he is apparently the head tha, another at tempt had been planned to rob the bullion train coming in from the Klon- dyke mines The point at which the men were seen by MT. Durnall is but a short distance from where Alvord and Stiles robbed MT. Tener of the output of his mines several months ago.
 For the past two weeks Col. Roster litzky, who is in charge of all the rurales in Mexico, with headquarters at Magdalena, has kept a large force of his men out in the hills. It is pre- sumed that this fact alone tended to frustrate the plans of Stiles and his party to again make raid upon one or the other different treasure trains coming fro mthe rich gold mines into Magdalena.
 It is thought that by this 5ine info-- nation has reached Koske.litzky of the close proximity of Stiiss and the rurales are close upon his track. If captured in Mexico Stiles will receive but short shift. It was for this req son it was thought that he would not again venture so near the scene of his last holdup but would keep close 10 the border.
 Mir. Durnall has several rich pros poets in Sonora and has come to

THE METAL MARKET.

Copper is duller at the moment than it has been for some weeks past There has been a temporary cessation of the buying for export, and home consumers are holding to their prac- tice of buying in small lots as the needs of their business dictate Lake has recently sold at 13 3-s and 13 1-2 cents, electrolytic is obtainable at about Is 1-4 cents and the best brands Of casting are selling at 13 cents, There is reason for the belief that cer- branches of the copper and brass business are nearly or quite as active as last year, and that the falling off in domestic consumption from the highest point reached does not aver age any more than 20 per cent.
 London copper quotations advanced early in the week and then declined, being at present small fraction low CT than a week ago. Best select ed" copper is selling in London at z 63 5s equal to about 13.7 cents per ID. This indicates that there is still fair profit offered on export business, and that the foreign buying demand may be expected to continue for some time to come.
 Exports of copper during April dropped back 10 about the normal lev el, the total being almost exactly the same as in the corresponding month year ago. So for this year exports have averaged about 46,0O0, 900 pounds monthly. and this country's produc- tion has not exceeded 60,000,0 900 pounds monthly. Though exports have averaged nearly twice as great as last year they have shown an in crease of only about 25 per cent over those of the corresponding months of 1902, in which year of low prices there was a moderate accumulation of copper in the hands of foreign con consumers. That accumulation, how ever, did not result in a later decline in copper prices, and there is no req son for the belief that this years heavy buying will do other than per manently strengthen the situation
 So far as can be learned there is only one interest that really believes there is any surplus of copper in existence at the present time. and I know of not less than ten authorities that are well satisfied that the foreign buying and export have been legitimate in every sense. The story of an accumulation of copper in Germany is amusing. A considerable portion of the copper sent to Germany has been immediate ly manufactured into war munitions and equipment for Russia, and more of 1t has been reshipped overland to that country. This Is the explana- tion of the heavy German imports, which will undoubtedly continue as long as the war lasts.

Calumet & PiltSburg
 IS CONSIDERED
 To Be Good Buy
BROKER FRANK GRAF HANDS
 OUT SOME STRAIGHT TIPS.
Gives the Purchasing Public Facts and Figures to Ponder O'er-The Junc- ton and Several Others.

The market continues to be scme- what inactive, and all holders of l.. s. and P. Development Co. stocks are doing everything in their power to pro- tect their rights tn mining stocks, thereby forcing the market, and sell ing under the market prices.
 Some time ago We advised the talk ing on of some c. & P. and We still advise you to co so, for we have many reasons to believe that this stock will be a good investment.
 The Calumet & Pitts5urg. without doubt, will pay during the year oi 1906 and annually thereafter a divi- dend of at least $500 per annum. It will come sooner. but We will be con servative. Stock paying $500 annu- ally will sell readily on the open mar. ket. without additional speculative value, fer sS000 per share. The pur- chase price today opportunities $30. Two years will give you s50.00 per share profit, or S3 per cent per annum On your money. We doubt very much if you could find such an opportunity in the country for safe investment
 Junction Development stock will very likely entitle ycu to two and one half shares of the mining stock free of further charge, and carries the priv ilege of buying at least two and one half more mining shares at par Pre- sume that for personal reasons you do not, at the time of reorganization, de- sire to avail yourself of the privilege, nevertheless receiving without cost two and one-half shares of the min ing stock. The mining stocks will very likely sell for more than s10.00 per share. Ycu know that from the experience with the others (Bonanza) companies Supposing that you pay s20.O0 per share for the development stock. and that it is 12 months before the mining company is reorganized. your mining stock will have cost SS.0O per share, and immediately after issu- ed you can sell it for $10.00 per share or more. The result obtained will exceed 20 per cent per annum in the market price of the shares.
 Just take a good look around the country and see where you can make an investment that will be as safe as the above mentioned with half as good returns.

its full run.
 It stands to reason that there would be fewer sellers of copper stocks while the metal market is strong and advancing around pres ent prices than there would be if it were lower and declining. The cop per producers are earning a lot of money. Some that have never dis tributed anything to their stockhold- CTS will begin dividend payments this year. and others will increase their rate of payments. Now that the cop pers are coming to stand little bet ter in public favor the realization of their attractiveness as investments around this levelwill grow. and there will likely be steady gain in prices. If this view is correct, the early buy CT will catch the big profit Geo. Walker in Bostcn Commercial.
