BOSTON. April 16-The market opened
strong and continued until the last hour.
when a drive was made at Amaigafnated,

There was a good general demand for stocks

as IL 1t were in a position TO make another
advance upon the least favorable news.
A news bureau says: The annual report of
the North Butte Mining Company. submitted
at the annual meeting in Duluth today. states
that the company Is employing six hundred
men and holsting nine hundred tons OF ore
daily. With new equipment 1900 tons will be
holsted daily. For the fiscal year the
company produced 3oe45,T pounds OF copper,
which was sold at 16.47c per pound Three
directors whose terms expired were reelected.

statement that reserves blocked out are
