CHANGE SUSPENDS
P|TTSBURG-ELY STOCK
LOCAL COMPANY IN TROUBLE
OVER ALLEGED VIOLATION
OF RULES ON BOARD.

The feature on the local stock ex-
change last night was the suspension
of Pittsburg Ely from the list This
stock was suspended by order of the
board of directors of the stock ex-
change, pending investigation into
charges that have been made against
the company.
1t Is alleged that the officials de-
lay the matter of cutting stocks be-
longing to shareholders, from large
blocks into small blocks at the de-
mand of the stockholders. This is a
serious infraction of the rules of the
exchange and on conviction the stock
can be permanently removed from the
board
Frank Straub of Denver is presi-
dent and manager of the company,
and Charles Straub, who is superin-
tendent of the property, is also in
Denver at this time. The matter has
been called to their attention and it
is believed that they will come here
at once to explain their position, and
to rectify the mistake if mistake
has been made.
Aside from this feature of the call,
the business went along at about the
usual pace. The total number of
shares sold was $500, the majority
of deals being in the low priced
stocks
The quotations throughout were
about up to the standard and there
was no falling off in any particular

USES OF COPPER ARE
GREATLY DIVERSIFIED
ONE-FOURTH OF PRODUCT CON.
SUMED ELECTRICALLY,E EQUAL
QUANTITY FOR COINAGE.

The average man, if asked to name
off-hand, the uses of copper, would
be likely to reply that the metal was
used mainly for coming pennies and
making wire, says the Mining Re-
porter, yet these uses employ barely
more than a quarter of the copper
that is produced. On second thought
he might smile at naming copper
coinage as an important consumer OF
the metal, yet his first thought would
be nearer right than his second, fol
the Chinese empire has used $4,000
tons of copper for making new coins
within the past two years, thereby
increasing the circulating medium OF
the country to the extent of a ounces
for each inhabitant-for while 50,-
900 tons of copper is a large quantity
of metal. sufficient to load 1000
freight cars of the heaviest type used
on American railroads, it is but a
quarter of an avoirdupois pound per
capita when divided among AGO.
100000 people.
Only the expert or those engaged
most actively in the copper industry
have the slightest idea of the di-
yersified uses to which copper is put
as, shown by a chapter on the uses OF
the metal in the new edition of the
Copper Handbook published by Hor-
ace ]. Stevens of Houghton, Mich. Ac-
cording to this book copper enters
into almost every form of human ac-
tivity, and the multiplicity of Its
uses is most surprising. Electric
light, power and traction are i'm
mense consumers of the metal in the
form of wire, and telephones and tel
egraphs find it indispensable, yet
electricity requires only trifie more
than a quarter of the metal made
The engineering trades consume more
than half of all the copper produced
mainly in the form of brass, but
there are about score of friction
metals and alloys, each having Its
specific use, into which copper enters
as a component part.

ANOTHER HIGH GRADE
FIND IN OLD RED TOP

GOLDFIELD, Oct. 16.-The peo-
pie of Goldfield are elated over a
strike of high grade ore in the Red
Top, one of the properties of the Con-
solidated. The Red Top, which is
producing handsomely, has always
been a low-grade proposition, but now
ore has been struck that runs from
5000 to $4,000 ton.
Special trains will be run from
Salt Lake and Los Angeles in honor
of railroad day in Goldfield, October
20. 1t is especially desired that Salt
Lake jobbers and smeltermen visit
Goldfield at this time, as Goldfield
will soon be in position to do a
large amount of business with the
Utah capital. An extensive program
is being arranged for the occasion.
The Little Florence company, OPP
Grating a lease on the Florence, will
declare another 100000 dividend
within a few days. The new shaft on
the Little Florence, which will cost
the company $4,000, is rapidly near
ing completion. The lease is now
producing about $4,000 a day, but
the output will be doubled with the
completion of the new shaft

PERSECUTION OF CATHOLICS
CONTINUES IN FRANCE

LANDERHEAU, France, Oct. 16.
The priests of the department of
Finisterre, having generally refused
to quit their presbytery, which re-
verified to the communes under the
church and state separation law, are
now being expelled by the aid of gen.
darmes. At many places resistance
was encountered. At Relec, the gen.
darmes were forced to break into the
house of the presbytery in order to
eject the priests, who were surround
ed by weeping women. At Peneran,
after a tumultuous scene, the gen.
darmes took possession of the bell
in the tower of the church, in order
to prevent the irate populace from
arousing the people.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC WOULD
OBJECT TO INDEPENDENT
Nevada Hills Company Will Go
Ahead With Its Plans for
Road.

SALT LAKE, Oct. ia special
from Goldfield says that the Southern
Pacific Railroad company is endeav-
oring to dissuade the Nevada Hills
Mining company from building a
railroad from Fallon, New, to the
company's mines at Fairview. The
traffic department has assured the
committee which was appointed to
build the road of the intention of
the company to build into that camp
in the spring.
The mining company is not willing
to wait, however, and unless the
southern Pacific will arrange for ter
minals and make traffic agreement,
the road may be built to the Western
Pacific to the north, up through
Dixie valley. The distance, in the
event that line is decided upon, will
be 125 miles, about three times the
distance to Fallon, but the Nevada
Hills directors are determined to
have some relief from the congested
condition of the mine without fur
Their delay.
1.-THE grade between Fairview and
Fallon is an easy one," said w. H.
Clark of the Nevada Hills, land at
least twenty miles of it can be con-
structed rapidly and at small cost.
We are throwing money away at the
present rate of wagon transportation,
but we must pay it or close down the
mine, as every avenue is in. ore and
we can't do even development work
without moving ore"
Whoever builds the railroad into
Fairview is assured of big tonnage
from the mines, several of which are
in condition to ship regularly. The
Fairview Eagle has seventeen feet of
ore on the 200 foot level, nearly all
of which would go to the smelters if
there were better facilities for trans
portation, and there are number of
mines which have ore of shipping
grade. Development work is re-
stricted because it is impossible to
get teams to haul the product of the
mines.

USEFUL BOOK FOR
MINING OPERATORS

Many a mine superintendent has
been puzzled at times by the behavior
of the ore body he was mining and
has felt that better knowledge of
ore deposition would be of immense
value to him. But he is a busy man,
and does not have time to sit down
for long hours and pursue some large
and cumbersome text book.
What he wants is a book like 1.-THE
Origin of Ore Deposits" with fleXi-
BILE linen cover, which he can put in
his coat pocket and carry everywhere.
A book of "a pages only, which
tells him in the simplest and plainest
language. all he wants to know with
out burdening him with unnecessary
details.
The author of the book, Mr.. Eli
enne A. Ritter, is a mining engineer
of great repute and one of the high
est recognized authorities on mining
geology. He has written clear,
comprehensive book, which goes
right into the heart of the subject.

HOW TO COLLECT YOUR
SHARE ASSESSMENT COSTS

When a partner in unpatented
mining claims refuses to contribute
his share of annual assessment, the
partner or partners have in the law
a method of settlement which is
clearly defined.
An advertisement is published set
ting forth the facts and calling upon
the delinquent to contribute his share
of the expense, failing in which the
title passes to those who have fully
complied with the requirements of
the law, and the delinquent no longer
has a shadow of interest or title in
the property.

LABOR TROUBLE NOT
YET SETTLED AT BUTTE

BUTTE, Mont, Oct. 16.-The at
tempts of joint committee from the
miners, smelter men and engineers
to settle the machinists' strike have
apparently proved fruitless. The
company offered the strikers $4.75,
instead of the SIS demand. The union
was willing to accept this while cop
per was below IS cents, but wanted
SIS agreement when it went above
that figure. This the management
would not accede to. If the ma
chinery of the mines breaks the
mines must close now.

Suddenly she overbalanced and fell above the chair, with which she battled for some moments as she lay on the floor.

THE ANTS EGG TRADE.
Russian Gatherer Has Insects Help
 Him in Collecting.

Ants eggs come in the main from Russia. They are the best food ob- tainable for gold fish, and canaries and other cage birds thrive on them wonderfully. They cost about 50 cents pint. In the forests of south ern Russia ant nests abound The Russian egg hunter does not do his own collecting there-he makes the poor ants do it for him. Selecting hot, sunny day, the man first erects little piles of twigs, dozen or more of them, near the thickest colonies, and then he kicks open all the nests in the neighborhood. The ants know that their eggs, thus exposed to the sun would be made sterile in a few hours, and they take them up and hurry to place them under the nearest shelter. The nearest shelter is, of course, the little pile of twigs, and under each of these there are soon heaped the eggs from hundred nests. The egg hunter after a smoke and nap. has nothing to do but gath CT up his spoil and dump 1t in his sack. He ships the. eggs in hundred weight bags, all over the world.
