day morning, nude and half submerged

Detective Sergeant DrsbeII. of Orange

 Liquidation on a large scale helped along by short selling broke New York prices considerably. The close was weak and at about the lowest of the day Big interests are not extendinp any support, but a natural rally is overdue and stocks should be bought for a turn. Money is tightening up, presumably on October 1st disburse. ments
 Boston coppers were forced for sale from the opening until the close. A further reduction in metal in New York. lack of demand at the reduced price and lower Lndon copper gave the market a weak tone which brought in selling orders, forcing values down sharply. North Butte was heavily sold by Boston houses. Greene Cananea. Copper Range, old Dominin and :n fact all the active leaders show good sized losses for the day. Amalgamated which has been holding steady for some time. was weak feature of to- days market and uriil a permanent change for the better, and an upward movement is started in the coppe metal only moderate improvement can be expected. However, a rally should follow this big break. We would buy the good coppers on any further recessions.

APPREHENSION
 LESS EXTENSIVE
Financial Situation Seems To Be Slowly Fighting Itself
 At The CenterS.

Boston.-Although sentiment in fi- nancial circles remains extremels conservative. there is unquestionably an absence of the apprehension that recently existed. To this extent, at least, the situation has been bettered,
 No decided improvement h trade conditions is expected immediately. The mercantile world is going slowly for some time to come. or until money and credit increase to a point that will permit of expansion. But the country can now pretty accur- ately estimate it's coming agricultural wealth. and measure what it means in consumptiye ability
 Much encouragement is felt by req son of the easier tendency in money both here and abroad. The improved position of the Bank of England, and the fact that money rates in Lombard street are now considerably lower than the official quotations suggest an early reduction in the bank rate.
 The best feature in the security market is the steady investment buy. ing This is not aggressive, and t slackens whenever prices advance tco rapidly.
 It is pretty difficult to convince d trader that dull market can be a strong one, but of late selling by this element has tended to strengthen rather than weaken the market DO sitior.
 Heavy buying of wheat for export has led to talk of early gold imports.

LARGE OFFERINGS
 AND ND TAKERS
That's The Rule On The Mar ket Yesterday As To Local
 Copper Stocks.
(By Frank J. Graf.)

The local market continues to be in a weak condition with plenty of stock offered Calumet & Arizona sold down to s1G6.00, North Butte to S45.50. Large eastern brokerage houses sold this stock the entire day. Shattuck is offered with no takers. A few shares were handled at S14.75 and there still remains considerable stock offered that cannot be absorbed by the market. Denn Arizona is be- ing offered at s5.75 with no buyers. Warren and American are offered at most any figure but there seems to be lack of buying interest in this class of stocks. Greene Cananea sold as low as sS.62 and Superior & Pittsburg at $10.12. An assessment of 50 cents per share has been called on Helve. tia payable on the 18th of October. An assessment of 50 cents a share has been called on An,1erson-Apache. payable on the 10th of October.
 New York wires: The bears at tackled the New York stock market with their old time ferocity, causing liquidSS . on and lower prices all along the list. There was not much news of importance but the action of the Ol SuDpOtl with the buying power very limited, the bears do not meet with much re. sistance. It is getsrally thought that money rates Will harden over the first of the month in preparation of the October disbursements and as the New York banks are known to have lost considerable currency to the interior, a poor statement is expected. We are inclined to think the technical DO, sition of this market has been streng- thened and the nucleus of a sharp rally created.
 New York wires: Amalgamated Copper has been held up for a week and made to look like buy. The manipulation has been excellent and deceived the public. It looks like $50 very soon.
 Boston wires: Renewed liquidation set in again today in the local market. due principally to the unsatisfactory condition of the metal market since the recnt reduction in price and the market was weak from start to firr ish. ..

CRITICISES THE PROPOSITION
 ID AMEND
Mining Congress In November Has A Plan That Would Greatly Reduce Local Labor And Cash Supply.

At the coming American Mining Congress to be held at Joplin, Mo, made to effect a change in the pres ent United States mining laws relat- ing to annual work on claims. Ii is proposed to amend the laws so that a claim-owner may either do one hun dred dollars worth of work annually on each claim: or If he so elect. pay the government fifty dollars in cash, each year.
 In a business way. this amendment would result n reducing the amount of money spent for assessment each year at least seyenty-fiye per cent flor practically all nonresident clain-owners, and a large proportion o9 the resident owners accustomed to hiring their annual work done. would send their fifty dollars. out of town, to the land office, instead of spending one hundred in the camp. Thus the volume sof business would decrease.
 in a mining way. there would be less development done, and cnse- quently fewer ore bodies discovered for 1t is this begging away con stantly at annual work that finally results in the making of mines. Many mining camps waiting on capital for development-dependent on annual work for their being-would be wiped out of existence.
 Prospectors and small mine owners would continue to do one hundred dollars worth of work rather tha;i pay the government fifty dollars in cash. But those desiring employ ment as miners could not then secure as much work as at present. The only pnes benefited would be the land offices and those who do not care to develop their own mining claims.-Paradise Record.

Bisbee, Sept 27, 1907.
 The market had another sinking spell today on the report of further drop in copper and all stocks were on the toboggan again. Calumet & Ari- zona fell four points, Amalgamated four and a half points. Copper Range two points and so on down the list. The local stocks are getting down to prices where they look cheap. Sup erior & Pittsburg Is at s10.25; Warren $450, American $5.50, Denn S5.5O. Sales in Shattuck at s15.00, Wolverine & Arizona IS coming out at s3.25. Any of these stocks bought around pres ent prices should prove good invest ments. Greene Cananea weakened, last sales at $S.50 and looks as if it were going still lower Butte & Ari- zona is unchanged with sales at 55 cents. The market generally has been sold to a standstill and it seems. that it is about due for a turn.

City Of Mexico, April 20. Direct
communication with number OF
towns situated in the district most at
fected by the recent earthquake makes
1t apparent that that the death list will
exceed 100. There are number OF
small towns yet to be hea. q from, but
up to date the average number Of IA
talities at these places has ranged
from nine to twelve, and the number
OF injured from thirty to forty.
One peculiar phenomenon which has
Just been made known Is that after the
first great shock the air was filled for
many miles with thick, sickening
sulphurous odor. Even the water in
the streams was made sulphurous.
This caused great distress to the sur
vivors.
Great Anxiety Felt.
There are many speculations as to
the cause of the peculiar freak Of ma
ture and some consider it as a proof
that the earthquake had its origin in
some subterranean explosion. For
this reason considerable anxiety will
be felt until news is received from the
sections surrounding the active volca-
noes of Colima and Jurello.
A big movement is under way in the
City of Mexico to furnish relief to
those who We're rendered homeless and
destitute in Guerrero, and already
plans are being made for the gathering
of substantial sum for the sufferers.
Famous Cathedral Cracked.
AS the examination of the City of

Tombs police court, Gimbel sent for
Attorney Daniel O'Reilly.
According to Assistant District At

in court, Mrs. Clark intercepted a note
addressed by the prisoner to her son
containing an invitation for yesterday

which the man appeared to have over
her boy, the mother reported the mat
ter to the district attorneys Office and
detectives were assigned to follow the
man and boy, and the arrest followed.

'venged upon them that he exposed the
plot. He gave Chief Adams the names
OF several persons who, he said were
Implicated in the Plot,
and further said that Czolgosz, who as
sassinated President Mckinley, had
been a member of the band. Chief
