trade at the present time is stated by
the representative of q leading produc.
ing interest as follows: 81 do not know
where European consumers are going 20
get their June and July supplies Of
copper. Even IL they do not con.
sumo any more than they did last
year. they will be unable TO supply
their requirements in this country. ]
know how closely all the largest pro.
duccrs are sold up, and ] know how
much of their product has been taken
already for export. am satisfied that
Europe will need a great deal more cop.
per than IL has NO far purchased, and
I do not know the source from which
II is TO be supplied.
"The consumption Of copper IL clear.
ly running ahead Of production. II may
be as impossible TO prevent an advance
in prices above 1871 TO lsH cents as II
was last yesr TO hold the prices down
TO 1871 cents. You will recall that the
largest producers sold the last pound
Of copper they were able TO supply at
1874 cents, believing that would be the
top Of the market, and feeling that II
was incxpcdient to encourage = further
advance. We are now supplying the de.
mand for copper ~ far ~ We can, but
We are about ready TO say no TO those
buyers who desire deliveries between
now and midsummer.
"Therc IL . good foreign demand for
copper, Germany, rs usual. being the
largest buyer. Russia has ben out Of
the market for several months past %
. result Of this reduction In the de-
mand, prices would now be higher
than they are. think the Gan Fran.
cisco disaster will cause an increased
demand for copper. In my opinion,
the next change in the price Of copper
will be an advance and not = decline. -
The foregoing are the views Of one
who can always be relied upon to state
the case conservatively. Other large
producing interests have been consult.
ed this week, and they confirm the
statements quoted. The recent
strength Of the London market reflects
the fact that foreign consumers arc
In urgent need Of supplies, and q 20

the year therefore IL not improbable.
In the general rush Of liquidation by
insurance companies and the bear sell

LAKE CITY, Ia, Nov. 17.-This
town is about to become an American
Venice owing to the industry of TO-
900 muskrats which are at work UNI
dermining it, allowing the waters Of
Lake creek to flow into cellars, under
mine heavy buildings and threaten to
do serious damage to the best build
ings in the town as well as the nine
ty-foot standpipe which supplies the
town with water.
The muskrats have honeycombed
the earth under the Northwestern
shops. and have come out in the pits
where the engines are cleaned. More
than one citizen has gone down cell
lar only to find several of the fat
and impudent muskrats in possession.
1t has been necessary to drive the piles
to support some Of the best buildings
in town.
Following the undermining Of the
railroad shops a systematic effort will
be made to exterminate the muskrats.
Boys will be the means employed. The
railroad company has offered a royalty
of cents for every muskrat caught
and Calhoun county will pay 20 cents
more.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-Mrs. Charles
F. Kalgebehn of Hoboken found a
new way of celebrating her birthday,
and tried it for the first time when she
was SO years old. Now she is looking
forward to spending several more

Mrs. Kalgebehns celebration con-

the children are four land there is

years ago, there are many more such
celebrations in sight.
Years back when Mrs. Kelgebehn

Last June the sister got word that

IRAILED TO HIS MOUNTAIN RETREAT
FOLLOWING FIERCE FIGHT GRE.
ALIN is WOUNDED AND
MUCH LOOT FOUND
IRAILED TO HIS MOUNTAIN RETREAT

GENEVA, Nov. 1.-THE notorious
brigand, Giuseppe Crealin, who has
long been the terror Of the valley be-
tween the Lepotine Alps and Lake
Maggiore, has been captured in his
hut in the snow on the summit of
Mount Tedt, after a long and desper-
ate figh. with a party of soldiers.
A year ago Crealin built a hut on
Mount .eda, $3.50 feet high. He plum
dered and terrorized the valley, and
then retreated through the forests
and snowy heights to mis- mountain
fastness. The local authorities made
many attempts to catch him but the
elusive Crealin only laughed at them,
and when they thought they were
close on his tracks in the woods, he
was making love to a farmers daugn-
ter, while ne carefully noted the po-
sition of her fathers household goods.
At last the local police appealed to
the Italian authorities, and dozen
special men were sent to capture
Crealin. They were dressed as guides,
but each man carried a rifle and re-
volver.
They divided up into pairs and pro-
ceeded cautiously through the forest.
There they caught sight of the nim-
BILE Crealin, but ne was too quick for
them, and effectually stopped them
by setting fire to a belt of dry wood
that barred their progress for some
time, while it gave him an oppor-
tunity to disappear in the smoke.
A large tract of the forest was
burned, but the soldiers continued the
ascent by different routes to the sum-
init. Six hundred yards from the top
Crealin challenged them by firing a
SHOT over their heads.
He had loopnoled his hut and was
evidently prepared to withstand a
siege. The soldiers took cover, and
opened fire on the hut. Crealin re-
piled with great spirit, and the SOL
diers closed in around him very eau
tiously, for he was sending shots in
all directions.
off oil in, after.
noon, and at sunset the reports of the
shots were still echoing along the
mountain. The attacking party were
thinking of making retreat, for they
recognized that if they could not cap
ture the hut they would have to spend
the night on the mountain top, and
probably be frozen to death. Their
hands. too were almost numb, and
their firing was erratic.
After Crealin had poured out very
brisk fusillade tine firing stopped. Ihe
soldiers suspected ruse and waited.
Then they made a dash for the door.
and battered it in, to find Crealin I'M
conscious on the floor.
A bullet had struck him above the
temple, and knocked him out, without
iniuring him seriously. A large sum
of money and jewelry, ana a great
stock of provisions, were found on the
nremises as we'll as a number of love
letters from his various SWeetnedrtS
in the valley.
