THE ANNOUNCEMENT CREATED GREAT EXCITEMENT IN THE
 MICHIGAN DISTRICT.
Turr ed Out to Be Gold Bearing Ouartzite-President Marks Got Hold of Wrong Assay-Dashed the Hopes of the Officers of the Com pany-But They Had Placed No Shares on the Market.

In connection with the announce ment that E. Marks, president of the Marquette & Arizona, had telegraphed that the diamond drill working at he property had cut 100 feet of ore it was commented that the news seemed too good to be true, and iIdsed I has de veloped that it was net true ar least not literally true. Further edylo $ show that he formation gut at the Marquette & Arizona was quartzite carrying a content of about s3.50 of gold, but no copper to speak Of.
 MT. Marks first telegram read. Been drilling in ore over one hundred feet. Assays follows" As stated in the Mining Journal Thursday, this tele- gram was not given publicity the day after its receipt, it being realized that its nature was such as to demand further confirmation. Wednesday NIT. Marks sent a second telegram, read ing. "Got hold of wrong assay last night. Assay three fifty gold.' To the officers this telegram appealed in the light of a confirmation. It was pre- sumed that MT. Marks correction Of the gold item applied to but one part of an assay that would show a consid- erable mineral content. and thus the officers permitted the announcement of the supposed ore strike to be made public.
 Further advices were telegraphed for, and yesterday the information was received from MT Marks that the drill had cut quartzite, and that its gold content of $3.50 was the only thing of importance it carried. This informa- tion was so out of keeping with the first dispatch and so dashed any hopes raised by it that the officers were much disgusted, not only at the dissi- patton of any pleasant fancies they may have coniured up but that there had been any misleading announce ment, particularly as they have made it their special aim to prevent any false or lilly grounded reports from be- coming current. One of the things that gave them considerable conf dence in the authenticy of the first announcement is the fact that Mir Marks has heretofore been very eau tious and conservative in his reports. Tn this instance, however, it appears that he either lost his head or couched his report of the quartZite strike in very unfortunate language.
 There was some little trading in the stock on the receipt of the first tele- gram, but there was no attempt to job it. The officers placed no shores on the market

vestors who purchase good stocks
 especially those that have a growing
 intrinsic value, pay for them outright
 and hold them until they can be sold | at a big profit. There was a time
 when railroad stocks offered great op- portunities to this class of investors.
 It was when half of the big trunk ! lines were just emerging from the hands of receivers and reorganizers, when Union Pacific, Atchison, North ern Pacific and other stocks sold be-
 tween $10 and $50 per share. A simi-
 lar opportunity is now offered, be- lieve, by some of the copper stocks traded in on the Boston stock eX- change.
 The often-heard claim that more money is lost in mining undertakings than is ever taken out of the ground has no basis in fact. A great deal of money is lost yearly in fake promo ton wildcat schemes to which the word mining is attached; but legiti- mate mining enterprises offer as rule less risk than almost any other line of business.
 Boston capital has developed the copper district of upper Michigan. and I have made a few figures to deter mine what the undertaking as a whole has returned. It appears that about 65 companies have been formed to de- velop properties in that district, and that a total of s50.000000 has been collected by these companies through the sale of stock and assessments. The total dividends paid by Lake Superior companies to date aggregate approxi- mately s122 .000, 900, or about s2.5O for each dollar paid in; and at the pres ent time, notwithstanding the market depression, Lake Superior copper stocks are selling for prices that rep resent value of nearly s1S0, 900 .00O. Put these two ammounts together and you will find that had you begun GO years ago and bought 100 shares of the stock of every copper mining com pany. good, bad and otherwise, that has ever been formed to operate at Lake Superior and pair all of your as- sessments you would be abse today to show SC for every one that you had in vested

COPPER SHARES.
Absence of Public Confidence in legi-
 timacy of Cooper Prices,

The failure of the copper share market to respond to the constantly advancing price of the metal is due to several factors. The peculiar ab- sence of public confidence in the legi- timacy of copper prices, the dulness of speculation in general, the prevail ence of bearish sentiment and the Lawson-Rogers controversy are all operating to prevent buying. There is almost no selling, and there should be none while present conditions con- tinue. Copper stocks are as a rule quoted about where they should sell on any decent metal market-Boston Commercial.

~HICAGO. Feb. hilary Forbes
knocked out Johnny Kelley in tho
third round of what was slated
for n slx-round boxing bout as the
wind-up OF the Chicago Athletic A.sso-

Forbes outclassed his opponent all the
way and was at no time in danger.
Kelley. who sprung a sensation at the
same club about n yea ago by knock
Ing out Morris Rauch, and who since
THAI time fought Reagan to a draw, be-
sides flooring Forbes in a bout at
kansas City, showed no class Saturday
night. The long lay off has spoiled all
the chance of his becoming the leader
OF his class. for which he gave promise
less h q a year ago.
Forbes made n rushing fight OF II.
lie floored Kelley several times. in the
hrst and second rounds. and in the
third practically knocked Kelley out
with a right to the stomach. Kelley got
10 his feet at the count of nine, and
FORBES landed a hard left to the Jaw
which did the trick. Referee Siler did
not count over him, and Immediately
motloned for his seconds to carry him
out OF the ring.
