Outlook of the Metal Market from Foreign Exports For April Increasing

nize that important interests are work ing out extensive plans affecting cop pers. and it stands to reason that coppers will continue a good purchase on every reaction until those plans reach their fruition.
 Amalgamated will declare it's quar- terly dividend too late for an an- nouncement in this letter 1t will probably be $1 per share, regular, or at the rate of per cent annually. Should an extra dividend of 50 cents be declared in addition to the above, however, it would mean that the man. agement is in favor of having the stockholders share immediately in the company's prosperity as they have already shared in its diversity. There can be no question that Amalgamat- eds net earnings are at present con siderably in excess of SC per share annually.
 On the decline of Tuesday and Wednesday, Amalgamated was espec- ially well bought. The stock must still be largely held by insiders, Jnere having been comparatively no distri- button since the December break. The situation is such that l feel like advising the purchase of Amalgamated stock on every moderate reaction for some time to come. l would, how ever, recommend the use of stop-less orders. It is still my opinion that the

has been plainly evident, however, that an effort was being made to get prices lower, and in view of this fact the relatively slight progress made supplies ground for new confidence. Coppers have been well taken all along the line. and it has been plainly evident that great deal of the buy ing was for other than ordinary trad ing and investing interests.
 The phenomenal strength of the Utah stocks. Utah, Bingham, U. S. Mining and Boston Consolidated, seems to question the sincerity of the wholesale denials from official sources of the rumor that Q consolidation of these companies is planned. While the denials are undoubtedly honest, they are probably technical. It may be an absorption by the American Smelling & Refining company that is planned. There is unQuestionably something more going on than mere public buying.
 Another factor that cannot be over looked in a resume of the copper share market is the recent sensation al advance in United Copper. This stock sold for a year or more around $7 per share, but has within a few weeks risen from SEQ a share to S2S; plainly there is something more than a mere day to day speculation in movement like this.

 Import duties will also cease to be collected on sulphuric acid now under section 654 of the tariff and sulphate of copper included in section 719, but these exemptions will only last until June 30, 1908.

The annual tax on the ownership of mines will be payable on the fol- lowing basis: (a) The rate will be six pesos per annum per mining claim (pertenencia), or, in other words, two pesos for each four monthly pe- riod, whatever may be the substances exploited. (b) If the number of claims belonging to one and the same min ing concern exceeds 25 and these claims are all contiguous with one another the tax of six pesos will only be payable with respect to the first 25 claims and will be reduced to three pesos for each claim in ex- cess of 25.
 Applications for mining claims or odd ground (demasias) will not pro duce any legal effect and will not be put through the customary for malities, unless they are accompanied by a certificate issued by the local stamp office to the effect that the amount of the title-deed tax, accord ing to the number of mining claims enibraced fn ssstS complications, has been deposited in that office. Thls certificate of deposit will be returned to the interested parties as soon as the stamps required by the title-deed to the Announcement shall have been definitely rejected.

The amount of the dues men toned in this article will be fixed in the tariffs to be issued by the de partment of finance and public credit on the basis of the cost of the several operations.
 Metallurgical establishments, which, by. virtue of special concessions granted them by the government and in force at the date of this law, en- joy franchises in the matter of federal and local taxes, can secure the bene- fits of this law, provided that they rencuace said franchises without re- serve in a statement to the depart ment of finance. In the meantime, they will not enjoy the benefits or this law and will continue to be sub ject to the terms or their cnpc occasions, to the law and rules of practice of March 27, 1897, and other enactments hitherto in force, including payment of the coinage tax.
 At the expiration of the periods for which the concessions at present en- joyed by metallurgical concerns were granted, said concessions will not be extended nor renewed, as far as the fiscal regime is concerned, and the concerns in question will become subject to the ordinary financial leg islation in all their acts and opera tions.

tory Of the old LccGGfell!ow mine .: Clifton. This mine which is one of the oldest in the Territory has been worked since 1872. Twenty years ago a mining superintendent in the employ of the Arizona Copper compa ny arrived at the conclusion that the old mine had seen its best days and if the Arizona Copper company was to be a success in the fueure from an investment standpoint, the company would be forced to look elsewhere for it's ore.
 The superintendent was succeeded by a new man who refused to rec ognize the theory that the Longfello" was a "has been," with the result that today this old mine is one of the best producers among the holdings of the Arizona Copper company.
 It is true that with succee ling dep'h high values declined but the size and extent of the deposit has increased What is true of the Clifton district is true of Jerome and Bisbee. The greater depth obtained the mere ore there has been in sight
  JULIAN & JOHN DAISY CONTEST
 There are bound to be some bitterly disappointed people when the land department comes forward with it's decision in the Julia and John Daisy Lowell claim contests. When this de- cision will be along is yet a matter that can only be guessed at, and that with no degree of accuracy. The evil dence submitted was of kind and volume that may not be disposed Of quickly. Meantime the squatters on the claims have arrived at the limit in the matter of numbers. They have finally succeeded in fencing in every inch of ground on the two claims. Something like 100 people are living on the grodnd. These expect that the land department will certainly sus- tain themt in the position they have taken and fleave them on the ground. If they have to finally yield to a de- cision thafswill take no consideration of the rig its they claim they win be a very indignant lot. They will be

THE MICHIGAN SITUATION

Fred Hagan, who returned this week from a several months stay in Michigan, states that the strike sit uatiop there as related to the mines is greatly improved The Wolverine has settled it's difficulties with en- ployees and the only properties now tied up or threatened are the very small ones. The street car strike continues, with little yet developed upon which to base judgment as to who will finally win. This strike, Mir Hagen states, bred the trouble in the mines. or it is at least consid- cred so. In the stock markets the same dullness and slumpy tendency that has characterized the Bisbee market has prevailed for the last sew eral months. There is no more doing in the east than there is here. There it is pretty generally contended now that the drain made by the new Mon tana organization is mostly respon- sible for the situation that rules on the markets
