BUTTE COPPER EXPLORATION
 COMPANY.
Especial Correspondence.N

Boston, Feb. 13.-The past week has witnessed the starting of trading on the Boston curb in the stock of the Butte Copper Exploration Company. This company has 100000 shares of stock. and was formed for the purpose of developing a group of claims in Butte, Montana, adjoining certain claims of the Boston & Montana Com pany, which the Amalgamated people are about to open up.
 It is proposed to sink a shaft to depth of about 1000 feet. and then cross-cut north and south sufficiently to deet-mine the commercial value of the vein. which apparently traverses the full length of this group of claims.
 Some few years ago when copper was at a very low price a shaft was sunk on this property to a distance of about 400 feet and some development was then done in a desultorv way. Owing 10 the manner in which the matter was handled and the refusal of certain owners to extend their options, development stopped. From what was discovered at that time. however, it is believed that one of the strong main veins which exist in the principal part of the Butte camp continues in a di- rect line across to these claims.
 It is now proposed to ascertain at a reasonable depth what the value and extent of the ore will be. If the vein Is of no value, naturally the stock of this exploration company will have very little value. The general indications seem very favorable, and the people who have put in the bulk of the money in this enterprise are people thoroughly familiar with the district.
 Anyone purchasing this stock, how ever, should realize that it is an ex- ploration company, pure and simple, and that the value of it's stock can not be ascertained until the develop ments above mentioned have been carried out. which will require a pe- riod of some eight or nine months.
 Work has already been begun, and will be pushed vigorously. The com pany has s150,000 cash in its treas ury. The stock had a somewhat too sharp advance on the curb to ' 1-2, which has been followed by a natural healthy reaction by proft-taking of original subscribers to around $5.

New York, Feb. 13.-Copper stocks and smelters were put up with rush today, but ruled cratic under pres sure from realizing through most of the session. The expected announce ment of the big merger was not forth coming, but 1t is expected some time during Wednesday.
 On strength in copper, and allied stocks, there was much proft-taking through nearly all the balance or the list. This was particularly true in steels, which showed dragging ten dency. This seemed to come largely from the bank figures of Saturday.
 The reserve is getting down low, near legal requirements, and with the new issue to be brought out, and mer- gers contemplated, it would not be unnatural to see a higher rate TOT call money with the banks inclined to husband their resources.
 The volume of business was not large, and their irregularity seemed to testimy to a mixed opinion. The immediate future of the market is likely to take it's cue from the an- nouncement of the big copper deal.

 New York, Feb. 13.-The market vas very dull today, and showed lit- He tendency. Liverpool, which had advanced over the holidays, was easier this morning on what was supposed to be some warlike talk over the Mo Ioccan situation.
 Liquidation predominated in all markets during the first hour, but the decline was a matter of about ten points After this fluctuations were within a narrow range
 Spots in the south were generally steady, with practically no change.

DECIDED IMPROVEMENT
 IN BONANZA STOCKS
JUNCTION WAS SOUGHT AFTER
 FREELY DURING DAY.
Demand Comes from Tucson for Black Mountain Stock = Greene Consoli- dated is Ruled of Boston Exchange for Violation of Rules.
By Frank J. Graf.

Today's market shows a decided in2- provement over that of yesterday and showed that there was little life in the market, also that few buyers were out looking for bargains. We had more bids today than for a month past, and there was a demand for all stocks, especially on the Bonanza Circle. Junction had been sought after freely during the day at s25, and those who had open orders in at this price were for tunate enough to get it. Pittsburg and Duluth also took on strength and at the close they were bidding S23.T5 and sales made at SPA. Warren and American continues to be in good de mand and nothing under $16.50 would bring it out, and a very few sales were made at that figure. London Butte continues to be in demand at S2.50.
 We were unable to learn the results of the meeting of the Black Noun tain Mining Company which took place in Tucson yesterday, but from or ders from that city today leads us 10 believe that there is something doing. Late this afternoon we were some what surprised to learn the action of the governors of the Boston Stock Exchange regarding the Greene Con- solidated Company. We understand that this board took Greene Consoli- dated off of the Boston Stock EX- change on account of increasing the capitalization of the company without giving the board proper notice. This will make Greene Consolidated a curb stock on all exchanges.

 Messrs. w. F. Nihart and c. w. Crawford got up prospecting com pany to develop property which A. J. King might find during the life of the concession for prospecting which he secured from the Mexican govern ment. MT. King located some prop erty in the vicinity of the Lucky Tiger, Vita Grande and other properties. There are 19 pertenencias which have been denounced and the Douglas com pany has organized with a capitaliza- tion of $30,000, having GOO shares at $50 each. They have put 100 shares On the market at s20 a share for de velopment purposes.
 The officers of the new company are all well known in Douglas, being wideawake young men who are thor oughly alive to business investment, and will meet with success under any favorable conditions. They are: w. F. Nihart, president; J. F. Drake, vice-president; A. J. Crossley, secre- tary; c. W. Crawford, treasurer.
 A. J. King. who located the prop erty, is one of the wen-known mining men who has mined in Mexico for many years past. He at one time held lease and bond on the Gracia property and lost out on a technical ity after shipping s600.o00 worth of gold ore to Fl Paso.

The old Mammoth mine. which at ties in Arizona. but which has been abandoned for nearly four years, will shortly become an active producer again, according to Frank Carr, a mining man, living at Tucson, who is here now on a mining deal. He stat ed that Col. c. w. Johnson was in Tucson from New Jersey and ex- pected to again engage in mining busi- ness in this Territory Mir Johnson was manager of the Mammoth mine ten years ago. When he resigned, George B. Blair was appointed in hls place under the English syndicate. MT. Johnson believes the Old Nam moth is still capable of producing quantities of ore and would be a pay ing proposition under good manage ment.
 MT. Carr is interested in mining in the Tucson Noun Cains. He says that a tunnel is being driven into the mountain, over 200 feet of it Ecw completed. A company has recently been organized by eastern capitalists to work a large number of claims which the company has taken lip in the mountains near Tucson.
 He stated that Mayor Rose was making a good showing with his Twin Buttes properties. Over ten miles of the rails have been laid. thirty miles yet remaining. He believes this road will be finished by the last of March, or the 1st of April.

STRUCK ORE IN HELvETIA

News from Helvetia, Pima county. Arizona, states that ore was struck there at the S00-foot level, which gives assurance that the company has an excellent mine. At the S00-foot level they drifted for a distance of 250 feet and there struck the ore body. Operations are being carried on on large scale at Helvetia. and miners are constantly being added to the force.

There was no chance OF their digging

formed some other plan and departed.
They returned next morning. and under

Between 1890 and 1900 it travelled only

Thus 10 years the centre OF popuia.

The greatest distance covered in any
decade was eighty-one miles, in 1850

a comparison OF the relative locations

Philippines does not appear TO have been
fixed. Excluding these accessions, it il
in northern Kansas. The centre Of POI
pulation is therefore three.fowths OF a
degree south aud more than thirteen
degrees east of the centre of area.
II is interesting TO note that IN its
travels across three States and parts Of
two States the course OF the centre Of
population has not been due west. While
its general direction has been westward,

that has been in general uniform. Thus
in the decade between 1870 and 1850 IL

east by north OF Cincinnati, o., to a
point eight miles west by south OF that

How far and in what direction the CEN
tire Of population has moved in the five
year since the last census cau only be
surmised. Its location in 1910 is also

Presumably it will continue in its
steady course toward the Southwest
But the sudden checking Of its rapid
journey, as shown by the drop from
forty eight miles in the decade OF 1850
1890 to fourteen miles in lse0-1900,
warns us that its race is nearly run.
Presumably the centre Of population

PARIS PRESS DIsHEARrENED.
Situation More Strained, but Papers
Avoid Stimulating War Fever.


PARIS, Feb ga The strained Franco.
German situation appears to have some
what increased owing to the disheart-
ened tone Of the press. which, however,
carefully avoids stimulating the war
fever.
Senator Clemenceau in the Aurore
yesterday says "No one expects war,
but the diplomats at Algeciras will leave
behind them European situation of ex-
IRENE tension"
VI. Judet in the Eolair remarked;
Germany calculates on our weakness or
timidity. She holds us as a hostage Tor
Germany's eventual conflict with Great
Britain
~ Jaures, the Socialist leader, makes
the following prediction in the Human
itc: The failure of the conference will
not mean immediate war, but it will
inaugurate an mtolerable state Of tension
and discord from which war may result
at any tine.v
The Matin seeks to calm tie appre.
hensions Of war By pointing out that
the failure OF the conference win merely
result in continuing the status quo in
Morocco This is the prevailing view ia
which the government appears to par
tieipate.
Algeciras, Spain, Feb, 20. Although
the Franco German deadlock remains un.
broken, the opinion Of the delegates to
tile Moroccan conference huctuates as to
the results, the view yesterday being
rather more hopeful that some solution
is possible. This is largely due 70 the
German attitude that an adjustment will
evof .ually be reached. The American
delegates also continue confident, dc.
