RESIGNATION OF PRESIDENT OF
 RAVEN C0.
Is Not Well Received by the Shareholders of That Con- cern, Who Believe He Should Use His Influence Now.

Boston.-The threatened resignation of w. D. Thornton, president of the Raven company. has not been very well received by the shareholders of that concern.
 Many of them were led to become interested in the concern through the fact of the prominent position that MT Thornton occupied in the com pany and through the general knowl- edge of his position as thoroughly dependable mac.
 While no doubt is entertained of his sir cerity in the matter, shareholders believe that he should lend his in finence toward some satisfactory set clement, which should in some measure COT serve the interests of the share holders.
 The position of the company is just this. The company. as a result of its operations. has enough money in the treasury to proceed with work on small scale, but this money may be claimed by the Anaconda Company. if the courts decide that the ore in the Snoozer ground belongs 10 that com pany.
 Therefore, the Western manage ment is anxious to raise money with which to work Raven ground. but they seem to be looking to the eastern shareholders for the sinews of war IL is almost needless to state that the eastern shareholders are not in a temper to spend more money in the Raven property until several matters have been explained
 The men claim the situation as re gards the attitude of tn Amalgamated Company was constantly misrepresent- ed and that news vital to the interests of stockholders was not made known to them.
 The average stockholde- of Raven believes that there is good ore in the pIoperty-knows it in fact. But he likewise believes that instead of a mining proposition it developed into 8 stock iobbing scheme. That the Mon tsna men profited any by this state oi aairs is not believed. What cream was in the Raven property was skim ned here in Boston by a party who had absolutely no connection with the mine and who knew nothing about it
 The pooled stock-the greater par of it-is still in the hands of those who originally went into that agree ment, although some part of 1t was sold below s1 and some little higher
 The Raven affair has been blacl eye for all Butte properties in Boston And justly so.

Cox, chief engineer and assist ant manager of the Michigan and Ari- zona Development company, Which is composed of the same men as the rail- road company, was in Tucson recent ly for the purpose of securing teams to carry on the necessary work of con struction.

Owing to the late hour the vessel was docked at pier 29 last night. only the cabin passengers were released and the unloading and inspecting of the inn migrants commenced early this morn ing. There are nearly 400, and many of them are seeking homes in Texas and have accepted jobs on the rail- roads and with other industries, but most of them will drift back to the farms before they are here very long. as they come from an agricultural country

Col l.. w. Powell, of the Calumet & Arizona and Cananea Central compa- nies, returned to the city on Thursday evening from Cananea, where he had been to investigate the development work that is being done on the newly acquired properties of which Mir. Pow ell is the General Manager at this end.
 At present the principal develop ment work is confined to the America property, which was secured by Thos. F. Cole and associates from Jas Lind sey. Drifts are being run from the Bonanza shaft on the 50-foot and 100 foot level. and 1t may be truthfully said that the entire workings are in a high class ore, sulphides, which is be ing shipped to the Cananea Consolidat ed Copper Co. smelters. A Boston journal recently estimated the net earnings at the present time of the Cananea Central to be $40,000 pei month. The ore at present being talk en from the workings of the Americs is sad 10 average between tep and twelve per cent.
 It is the intention of the manage ment to begin additional development work on the America ground. and also on the property adjoining the Ameri ca, which was purchased from W. c Greene. A new shaft is to be started next week very near the boundary

In addition another shaft is to be put down on the Greene property, and within the next two or three weeks we shall expect to see five or six shafts in operation on Cananea Central ground for the purpose of proving up the property. which is considered one of the biggest mining propositions of the year.
 At the present time no development work is being done on the Cananea Duluth property. and there is no inti- nation from headquarters that any further development work is to be done in the immediate future.
 Orders for additional machinery for the Cananea Central workings have been placed, and some Of the equip ment has already been received. Ad- ditional men are being employed, and Superintendent Talbot is leaving noth' ing undone to make a record for rapid and substantial development. Third Vice President Powell expects to leave for Duluth the first part Of next week to close up some matters in connection with Cananea Central and Superior & Pittsburg, and will be absent about two weeks.

MARKET SHOWS SIGNS OF WEAKNESS AT
 CLOSE OF DAY
A New Mining Proposition Lo- cated in Canada Made a
 Big Advance,
(By Frank J. Graf.)

The advance in the market the last two days failed to hold up today, and showed signs of weakness at the close. This applied especially to Superior & Pittsburg and North Butte. Superior & Pittsburg might have taken on an advance, although indications showed that there was considerable selling at s17.0O. North Butte went ex-divi- dend today and fell of during the en- tire market, closing at the low point. Butte Coalition also closed weak with sales ranging from s36.50 to s35.3I (
 Denn-Arizona at the opening looked a little strong, but at the close sales were made at s2000. Shattuck-Arizona
 was offered during the day at s32.50 VI ith best bids out at s31.SS. Cananea Central held well during the day at s17.O0 to s17.12. Wolverine went ex- dividend today, dropping her dividend of $9.00 per share. Greene Cons. goes lex-dividend tomorrow. Warren and American were in better demand to. day than they have been for some time. East Butte is being neglected for the time being.
 Nipissing, property located in Can
 ada, made some very rapid advances today, closing last night at sS.25
 reached s12.75 and closed at s12.5o
 Globe was offered in good Size blocks at 5000. with the very best possible Dir Of s5.8S.

 The American position continues wonderfully sound, weak spots being untraceable. We expect great activity during the next few months, with steady firming up in values.

 Sept. IA. 1906.-Copper stocks are receiving their share in the distribution of the recent large import, of gold into the coun- try and the good effect is noti- ceable all along the line of the first-class securities on the boards. The hardening of prices in coppers during the past few days Is no doubt due to the receipt in this country from outside of about $3O. .000.- 900 in gold, but this is not en- ough in our opinion to cause an upward move in the market that will last for more than about two weeks as soon the crop moving season will be on and this will require a large additional amount of currency. When that situation is taken care of nothing will prevent a general rise in copper stocks particularly and in fact all markets should respond to the good effect which plenty of money for trading will have. During the coming week the copper share market should become very active one on account of the distribution of the enormous dividends that have been declared by the big companies.
 In today's dealing Butte Coali- ton, North Butte, Greene, Cananea Central, Globe, Super for & Pittsburg and Denn were the moving stocks. All of these were well bought and are giving a fine account of themselves. Superior & Pitts burg especially was sought after as well as Cananea Cen tral, while Denn and Greene are being paid a good share of attention. Not a small amount of Globe and Black Mountain are changing hands, the former being in strongest demand.

COL. C0RRIST0N FOR CHIEF
NATIONAL GUARDsMAN HAS
STRONG BACKING FOR HEAD OF
POLICE DEPARTMENT.

Applicants for the position Of super
intendent Of police under the next ad-
ministration are making things lively
for Mayor-elect Haynes, and his desk
is already piled high with petitions
asking him to make certain appoint
ments. So
The last man to come out with a
strong backing for the place is Colonel
Frank t. Corriston Of the First regi-
ment, national guard. Colonel Corris
ton has had valuable police experience,
and his friends are urging his appoint
ment because of his military training.
During the war with Spain he was ap-
pointed police judge in Manila, and
with the duties of that office he had
the entire control Of the police work.
Richard bakersfield, secretary Of the
democratic county committee, has an
nounced that he is candidate for the
position of private secretary to the
inside say his chance for the place is
good.
Charles Brown, detective under the
former Haynes regime, is making a
campaign for the position Of chief Of
detectives if such an office is created.
Those who favor his candidacy point to
his record, which they say will tell
whether he is the man for the place.
During the two years Of his work un-
der Haynes he made more than twenty
five important arrests, closing his term
with the arrest Of Kolb, Calderwit and
Hammond, the murderers Of Freddie
King in Mingo's saloon at Columbia
Heights. ssY

LOTTERY UP To- DENMARK
LOCAL POSTAL AUTHORITIES
WILL REPORT TO WASHINGTON
ON CoNFIsCATED LETTERS.

AS the result of information secured
by local postoffice authorities, the Dan
ish government will probably investi-
gate the lottery scheme which was un-
earthed by the postofice authorities
and the foreigners responsible for the
circulation of the 5000 confscated let
tiers advertising the Danish colonial
class lottery may be held to account in
Denmark.
Danish-born citizens Of Minneapolis
assert that altho lotteries are run under
the supervision Of the state in DEN
mark, it is against the law to send mail
the lottery practice is illegal and they
denounce the scheme unearthed in Min
neapolis as fraudulent.
G. Nelson, proprietor of the Nelson
Brothers Knitting Works and native
Of Denmark, ca1eld on T. E. Hughes, as
sistant postmaster, today, and furnished
information which may be taken up
with the Washington department.. Mr..
Nelson asserted that while residents in
Denmark must have been implicated in
the lottery scheme, since the advertis-
ing circulars asked that remittances be
sent to Muskrow & Co., Copenhagen, in
his opinion the scheme is a colossal
fake and is being engineered in Ger
many. The Danish postal laws, ac-
cording to Mr.. Nelson, are rigid in re-
gard to the mailing Of lottery adver-
tlsements and he is positive that no lot
terry Of the character advertised is be-
ing maintained in Denmark.
AS the result Of the information a
more thoro examination of the confis-
Gated mail has been made, and it has
been found that altho the letters pur-
ported to come from Copenhagen, they
bore German stamps and were original
ly mailed in Germany. The letters will
be turned over to the dead letter office
and the Washington department will be
given full particulars in regard to the
confscation.
