MONTHLY OUTPUT $50, 900.
Nevada Hills Mining Company Show
ing Up Well-Opens Into
SuIphide.

That the Nevada Hills Mining COM
pany is destined to become one of the
most spectacular producers that the
world has ever known Is the opinion
of James r. Davis, who IS heavily in
terested in the property and who has
just returned to Goldllald from an in
spection trip through the t'aitView
and Wonder districts. He reporcs tc
the Goldfield Review:
THE monthly output is LOW not
less than 100000 and will shortly lie
Increased as there is no longer any
congestion either in the bins or ID
Tie mire workings There are he
tween twenty and thi'ty big freight
teams engaged in bringing in sup
plies and hauling out ore. and they
are able to handle the situation at
present although railroad is badly
needed and will be built next spring
either by the Southern Pacific COM
pany or by the Nevada Hills Mining
company itself.
"a new strike has been made in
the No. 1 crosscut tunnel at point
500 feet from the surface. Here a
large body of sulphide ores has been
encountered. This is the first sui
phide to speak of that has been found
in the mine, for the ores on the up
per level are all oxidized The new
find proves beyond all doubt that the
ores are permanent and that the
ledge extends to great depth

MINING, MARKETS AND METAL
WALKERS VIEW OF
COPPER SITUATION
Thinks Metal Is Fixed for Around
Is Cents for Some Time to Come
Cut i'm Production.

George Walker says in his weekly
copper letter in the Boston CONNER
cial received here Yesterday: Cop
per prices rebounded very quickly
from the low level of, IL cents, reach
ed a week or ten days ago. Lake is
now selling at Is to Is k cents, and
electrolytic at 14B to Is cents.
There has been very general and
heavy buying, but chiefly by foreign
consumers. Domestic manufacturers
have continue to buy very sparingly.
They are now in the market, how
ever, looking for some of the bar
gains which they allowed to pass un-
needed two weeks ago.
| estimate that the accumulation
of copper in the hands of the world
producers reached total of 30O,-
100000 pounds. This was properly
surplus of about 100000 1000
pounds, as under normal conditions
at least one-third of this total would
have ben carried by the consumers
who have been carrying practically
no copper at ALL Approximately
175, 100000 pounds of copper was
sold during the month of October,
reducing the producers surplus
stocks more than one-half. The min
ing companies had about $40, 000,-
900 of their working capital tied up
In copper Assuming that the aver
age price at which sales have been
made was 13 " cents, however, the
past months operations have re-
leased fully $23,000,000. At least
100000 worth of this copper will
go abroad.
How much of the recent buying has
been for speculation is not known.
AS practically all of the buying has
been for the account of manufactur
ers, with those of Germany and China
most active, it must be assumed that
only very small portion of the total
amount will come back to the mar
ket. If it is resold, it will be at
higher prices. 1t is more probable
that the foreigners have bought
heavily to cover their future require
ments, being satisfied that prices
were low enough.
The last of the copper produced in
Montana, Utah, Arizona and Mexico,
previous to the heavy curtailment of
production, which began in August,
has now reached the market. For
at least three months to come the
receipts of copper must be much
smaller, for should the producers re-
sumo production to their full capac-
ity at once, the increased output
would not reach distributing centers
inside of 80 to 120 days. 1t is be-
lieved that consumption should over
take production before the end of
this three months period. The Anal
gamated, ColeRyan and Phelps
Dodge interests will not resume their
full volume of production again
until there are unmis-
taxable signs of a decided improve
ment in business. This should mean
that the price of copper will hold
around Is cents per pound for an in
definite period.

There is talk to the effect that
Judge Thomas Settle, a North Caro-
lima republican, will be appointed to
the vacant Federal judgeship In Flor
ida. We Will not believe this until
the appointment Is made. 1t would
be little less than insulting to. the
people Of Florida, and especially to
the legal fraternity in this State, If
Mr.. Roosevelt should do such a thing.
Would he dare to go to Massachu-
sets to find material for a vacant
judgeship in New York, or to Indiana
to find Judge for Illinois? Certain
ly not. And for equally good reasons
he lould refrain from going outside
OF Florida to I'LL a Florida judgeship.
That's the way the thing was done
In reconstruction days when carpet
baggers had the call and the South
was treated as conquered territory
with no rights which the party in
power was bound to respect; but we
cannot believe that such an outrage
would be perpetrated now when Flor
ida's rights in the Union are as CON-
plete as those Of New York and there
is abundant material here of the best
quality from which to select the new
judge.

1t seems to be the general under
standing that if Georgia goes dry,
as appears now inevitable. some Of
the run-Out liquor men in that State,
with plenty Of money to meet any
high license demanded, viii promptly
occupy the Perry field and make that
town booze headquarters for a vast
area of "dry" territory In both
States. Doubtless the prospects are
so alluring that the $1,000 license
will be paid even before the evacua-
ton of Georgia by the liquor people
and we may look for the open saloon
and the wholesale liquor dealer in
Perry in a very few weeks. This
condition will last until, repeating
the history Of other towns, the evils
of the traffic will become lntOlera-
bic and then the whole business viii
be voted out by a suffering majority
unable to bear 1t longer. Mean
while we are unable to congratulate
Perry on her prospects in the near
future.

Work on Mr.. Flagler's great enter
prise, the East Coast railroad extern
sion to Key West, has been stopped
because the Naval authorities refused
permission to the railroad company,
in constructing its terminals, to re-
move mud and other material from
the banks near Fleming Key, as the
Government might need 1t later on to
construct torpedo station there.
The company was willing to replace
the material If 1t should be needed,
but the Government wanted 1t put
back within the bulkheads Of the pro-
posed station thus entailing much ex-
ira work and expense, and also in
sisted that all dredging and other
operations in Key West harbor by the
company should be under the direc-
ton Of the commandant Of the Naval
Station there. Mr.. FIagler wOuldn';
stand for this, but it does not seem
reasonable that an obstacle Of that
petty character should be permitted
to long block such a vast and useful
enterprise. Uncle Sam will doubtless
come to terms in due season.

A Pair Of Rattlers Killed.
Lakeland News.)

Recently a large rattlesnake was
killed in the Office of T. B. Hendrix's
livery stables. On Massachusetts
avenue. Before the snake was killed
it bit two of Mr.. Hendrixs horses, one
of the animals dying from the effects
OF the bite. The other horse was
made very sick, but finally recovered.
The negro man who discovered It had
a narrow escape, the snake striking
him, but failing to insert its fangs.
Monday another snake of the same
variety was killed at the electric
light plant by Mr.. l.. W. Fulghum A
eolored man who was gathering wood
picked up a log under which the
snake was hiding but the reptile did
not strike. 1t was found to measure
5 feet, 6 inches, and had nine rattles
and a button. As the electric light
plant is in close proximity to the Hen
Dirk stables this snake was probably
the mate of the one killed there.
Rattlesnakes, while not numerous.
are frequently found in the woods.
but their presence in town is hard to
explain. 1t is thought the two killed
escaped from a kind of Florida
museum which was located in that
vicinity.

~ In other states in the Union the
railroad companies are protesting
against two-ceRt fares and are eager
to get back to the three-eent basis,
but here in Florida we furnish the
antique spectacle of a railroad COM
pany, great trunk line at that, calm
" collecting the outrageous tariff Of
four cents q mile, and nobody doing
anything to stop the hold-up. Between
Pensacola and River Junction the
& N. sticks 1t to every passenger
pr four cents a mile. The Pensacola
ournaI pertinently suggests in this
onnection that the railroad company
should be forced either to pay taxes
on the valuation which it pleads as a
four-cent rate basis, or lower that
rate to a figure in keeping with the
taxes it does pay. Is there another
state in the Union where the four
cent rate is prevailing now?
