ACTION POSTPONED
CENTRAL LABOR UNION MUST
GUST STEAMFITTERS
Or President Gompers Will Have It's
Charter Cancelled - Other
Matters Discussed.

The demand of the American Federation,
made through its president, Mr.. Samuel
Gompers, to the Central Labor Union OF
this city, that the Steamfitters' Union be
expelled from the central body, was not
finally considered at the meeting of the lat
ter organization last night, as was expected.
Final action was deferred. 1t Is said, until
the meeting next Monday evening.
The letter of President Gompers is in the
nature of an ultimatum. The Steamfitters
Union must be expelled unless 1t consents
to be merged into the Plumbers Union, or
else the charter of the Central Labor Union
will be revoked. This is the situation as
pointed out by local labor leader. The
time limit Of the ultimatum will expire. it
is stated, on November l.
1t appears that the Steamfitters' Union
Is member of the Central Labor Union,
whereas the Plumbers Union is not. When
nrSt presented no action was taken on Mr..
Gompers' communicate ton. Last night the
executive committee of the central body
was authorized to write a letter to Mr..
Gompers. The letter was drafted and APP
proved, and will be sent to the president of
the American Federation of Labor today.
It's contents were not made public. but 1t is
understood that an extension Of time be-
yond November 1 for action in the matter
was asked for.
Plumbers Rejected.
At the meeting last night of the central
body, the Plumbers Union, unseated some
time ago, asked for reinstatement The
union was asked if 1t would consent to join
the Council Of Allied Building Trades, with
which it is not affiliated, and upon a mega
tive answer being received the applica ton
to reseat the plumbers in the central body
was rejected.
1t is understood that the executive COM
mlttee which is making an investigation OF
the Council of Allied Building Trades made
only partial report which was not made
PUBLIC, and this matter also went over to
the next meeting.

AROUND THE DISTRICT.

The week just closed has not wit messed any important developments in the work that is being prosecuted with unabated vigor throughout the district. Owing to the encountering of water in several of the shafts, nota- ply the Marquette & Arizona and the Calumet and Bisbee. sinking has been discontinued. and the principal work now consists in drifting.
 During the week the Calumet and Cochise, which still continues to sink. encountered a more favorable forma- tion- This shaft is fast nearing the 1000 mark. when a drift will be start ed in the direction of the Calumet and Pittsburg, which is just across the hfll. Down al the Marquette there is 130 feet of water in the shaft, and all sinking has been discontinued, but work progresses with unabated vigor on the drifts. The Wolverine has been busily engaged this week putting in their pumps, which have become necessary before any more headway can be made iE the shaft. The Calu- met and Bisbee, Wolverine and Ari zona and the Higgins and the Calumet and Cochise are all local favorites and owing to their close proximity to the Bonanza circle their development work is watched with great eagerness

THE COPPER SITUATION.

During 1908 copper had an interest ing career. and it promises no less in teresting feature for the year 1904. About one year ago New York quo tations for Lake copper were s11.- 62 1-2 per hundred. Early in Febru- ary the price had advanced to s12.75, going to s13.75 the first week in March, and before the end of that month Lake copper found a ready market at s14.50 to sl5. This was the highest price reached during the year, though the price was maintained at $14.50 to $15 until June. In July
 a slight decline was noticeable. and, with more or less fuctuation, the price fell throughout the summer and fall, going as low as S1312 l-2; but on November 1 it rallied to S14. During December the quotations fell to s12.50, and at present the quota tion is s1275 to SIS. The rise in price in the early part of 1903 was due to a large and steady de- mand for the metal, and the falling of in the latter part of the year is at tributable to a constantly decreasing demand until the latter part of the year, when t seemed to be a game of waiting on the part of both seller and -consumer The seller waited for large stocking-up orders, and the buyers held back in the expectancy of a lower price. The market is at present more active, and the prospect of war in the far east has also had a material influence on the price. Should war actually be declared, a strong and materially higher market may be looked for. It is also said that, although industrial activity is less pronounced in America than a year ago. the foreign demand for cop. per has constantly increased The methods of mining and treating cop per ores are being simplified each year, making it possible to produce copper under given conditions at a lower cost than ever before On the whole, the outlook for the copper mining industry for 1904 is encourag ing and price at least equal to thai prevailing throughout the greater part of 1903 may be anticipated.

THE TOMBSTONE MINES.

The best evidence of the faith of capital in the mines of Cochise coun- ty is the expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollars by the Tomb stone Consolidated Mines company at Tombstone, in this county, and the consequent revival of one of the old est and picturesque mining camps in the entire territory:
 The work on the properties of the company is progressing rapidly and the two large pumps are now forcing a fourteen inch column of water to the surface.
 Since the company has started pumping the water has been lower in the entire district over 80 feet.
 At the Big shaft three eight hour shifts are again at work sinking be low the seven hundred, and the shafi will now be pushed to the 1900 foot level as rapidly as possible. Two ears of high grade ore are being shipped daily, which is being taker from the former water level.
 At the Emerald the workmen have completed the work of cleaning oui and retimbering the shaft down to the 100 foot level and work will be sin in a few Gays in sinkizS oa thrs prOperty. The bottom of the shafl was perfectly dry when the workmen reached there showing that the big pumps are doing work of draining the camp. During the past week tht company has had several cars of

RURAL DELIVERY CHANGE
Mail Carriers Must Not Act as
Agents For Any Person,
Every Government EmploJe Who Covers
q Full Route Will Receive Sixty
Dollars a Month as Salary.

Washington. D. C.-By July /, the
date set for the change in the rural
free delivery service, Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Bristow will have
everything in readiness for the reor-
g~anization of that branch of the POST
office Department. The existing eight
divisions will be reduced to six; addi-
tional route inspectors will be en-
employed and officially designated as
rural agents, and the new schedule OF
pay for carriers and the new reSu'
lations relating to carrying merchan'
disc will become operative.
Every carrier in the country who
covers what is known as Il full route
will receive $50 a month, OF SI20 4
year, beginning with July. Carriers
who cover shorter houtes will not get
the maximum salary.
Under the r%eorganized system theSe
carriers will not be --armitted to act
as agents for any person, and it is
announced that while this regulation
will be enforced rigidly, the carriers
will be permitted TO do small favors
for patrons along their routes, but
nothing more. Publishers of news
papers and periodicals have asked the
department if they will be permitted
to supply carriers with lists of sub.
scribers as a guide, after paying the
necessary postage, and have been in.
formed that this permission will not be
granted. After July 1 every news
paper and magazine intended for a
patron of a rural route must bear the
name of the subscriber, though it need
not be actually wrapped.
