Houghton, Mich, Feb. 19.-(SpeciaD While official figures of copper pro duction by Arizona and Michigan will not be made out for fully six months, and for Montana will not be forth coming at all, enough of the big mines have given out their products for 1904 to permit a very close approximation of the final figures, and these show that Michigan has only one per cent lead on Arizona, with the certainty that this lead will be lost during the present year. In fact it is probable that Arizona led Michigan in output last month. and will lead during every month of the present year. The ap- pTo1iHate figures of production are 206, 100000 pounds for Michigan and 204 100000 for Arizona, these being a gain, during 1904, of about 15,000,0 pounds for Michigan, and nearly co., e00,000 for Arizona. The territory, which is soon to be Uncle Sam's only territory, until Alaska is relieved from its present anomalous form of government and made a territory also, made the largest gain both actually and relatively, of any of the American copper fields. Relatively the next largest was by Utah, which produced upwards of 50,000,O00 pounds last last year, almost exclusively from the Bingham camp of Salt Lake county Montana also made small gain, but no great increase is to be looked for from the Butte camp. Montana prospects of future increase depends mainly upon development in the new Corbin district of Jefferson county where there is considerable activity and where there are several new prop critics of promise. In Utah the Bevel county fields should accomplish some thing in the way of production dur ing 1905, from the Newhouse and Ma jestic properties, and little copper should also come from the Little Cot tonwood district of Salt Lake county The Utah & Eastern mine, of Wash ington county, was small producer during 1904.
 In California there was an mcress ed production, due to better conditions at the Mountain Copper Co.,, in Shast; county. The Bully Hill mine, nea the Mountain, also was a small pro ducer, and a little copper was mad' in several other districts of the state The Wyoming output during 1904 wa very small, but an increased produc ton is looked for this year, due to th' reorganization of the North Americal Copper Co.. of the Encampment dis trict in Carbon county, under it's ney name of 'Penn-Wyoming Copper Co with fresh capital secured for the de velopment and operation of the va rious subsidiary mines.

that s15 per. ton for refining was "an exceptionally high charge" and that MT. Broughton offered to renew the contract at s9 per ton, was in every way misleading. Fifteen dollars per ton is the lowest price made by any company for electrolytic refining, and no discount from these figures is made to the largest producers. The Greene did not get a reduction in charges by making the change. There is no good ground for the statement, also. that the Greene company never paid more than 1-2 per cent commits sion for selling, and that it pays no less than that now. There is no trade war between the largest cop per refining and selling agencies. and stories of offers to cut refining charg- es to s9 per ton have no basis in truth.

IN GLOBE DISTRICT.

According to Boston advices Old Dominion's smelting cost at its new plant is about s3.50 per ton as com pared with costs of between $5 and $6 at its old plant. It's mining cost. in- cluding extraordinary development work and expenses of its new shaft, is about s4.50 per ton as compared with costs of between SC and s7 per ton under the old regime. This reduc- the metal permits of the treatment of 5 per cent ore, and this has never be- fore been possible.
