Special to The Journal.
Calumet Mich Nov. 10.-Lake mines showed
a slight decrease i'll production last month, not
withstanding that every effort was made to take
advantage OF the mixed lake-and-rail route. The
October output of the Michigan mines was in the
neigh borhood of 9,457 tons of ingot copper,
which, owing to the higher price of the metal,
sold for about ST. 525, 900. Copper production by
the Lake Superior mines is now at the rate of
approximately 225,000Io00 pounds a year. Con-
diti0ns are favorable for an increase, and the
1905 product should exceed that figure, barring
| unforeseen accidents.
| new high record of production was estab-
| Isked by the Champion mine last month. This
| was made possible by the enlarged air capacity
| at the mine. Development work on a large
| scale has been resumed since the new COM
| pressor went into commission. Sinking is in
| progress in all the shafts and an additional
| number of drills has been put on at drifting.
The Champion is stamping at the present time
| / $50 tons of rock every twenty four hours.
Since it is using but three of its heads, the
| fourth being in commission only occasionally,
an increased yield is to be expected. The Cham
pion is producing now at the rate Of nearly
16, 600, 900 pounds Of refined copper year; which
places it among the really important mines of
the world
While the Quincy showed small decrease in
it's production last month, it is making more cop.
per today that ever before in it's long and sue
cessful career. Not only is the Quincy's pro
duction showing great, Improvement, but it is
