bold Slavonic Inscription round the
base of its cupola telling how it was

PERU's COPPER KING.
A. W. McCune Tells About His Vast
southern Interests.

A. W. McCune, the copper king OF
Peru, returned TO Salt Lake yesterday
from South America, after an absence
OF many months and viii spend several
weeks here looking after local mining
and business interests.
The property which first attracted Mr.
McCune TO Peru Is the Gro d'Pasco
mine, In which himself and associates
spent millions OF dollars In development
and equipment, Although the mine
had been producer for 300 years. he
found it upon examination TO be very
rich. 1t took several years to build
railroads smelter, and other equipment
TO put IL on proper producing basis.
The smeter was placed In commission
during the present year and is now
turning out large amount of copper
daily.
THE problem of the development Of
the Cerro d'Pasco mine and the mines
adjacent TO Il was u serious one" said
Mr. McCune. when first went to Pc
RI there was no machinery In use at all
I'm the mines. Every bit OF ore mined
was carried up from the mines on the
backs OF the workmen, who traversed
2igzag paths up out Of the shafts. There
was not even a windlass IN use In tho
mines. And even today in all the mines
except those controlled by American
capitalists the same primitive method
OF bringing the ore to the surface is still
In use.
"The mines are situated In the Andes
range. 2l0 miles from Callao, which Is
the nearest sea coast point.
I'VE now own and operate our own
coal mines and have recently completed
large coke ovens, supplying the fuel for
our news smelter. We are now In a po-
sition 10 turn out the refined copper IN
vast quantities and we will soon be able
to supply the worlds copper market.
