and which will be known by the first

nary importance to the Globe mining
district. From the winze on the 10th
level a cTOsscut is being driven to the
SulDhide veins which were opened IN
on the 14th level and in a few days it
is expected TO cut into sulphide vein
No. l. Yesterday it was reported that
al a distance of seventy feet from the
bottom of the Wine, the formation
was undergoing a change and there is
every indication that the fOOtwall of
the big sulphide vein will be reached
in few days. 1t was expected that
the wall would not be reached within
100 feet but present indications show
that it is nearer and that the vein is
undoubtedly becoming more perpen-
dicular.
Some of the most noted mining men
and biologists of the country. such as
Walter Harvey Reed and J. Parke
Claiming have predicted that the big
suiphide ore body will extend to a
depth of from 300 to 600 feet below
the 18th level and if this prediction
is verified by future development of
the mine, the Old Dominion will un-
questionably be one of the greatest
and richest copper mines in the world.

Joyful news was received in this
city, yesterday. in the form of tele-
gram to General Manager I. II. Ok
nam of the Humboldt smelter, stating
that funds would be here by the last
of the month to meet all the Arizona
obligations of the company.
While no definite Information has
been received as to particulars on the
subject, this action OF the company is
taken to mean that the petition for a
receiver, which was heard in the New
Jersey courts on Monday, has been de
MED, for otherwise it is considered
unlikely that the directors would
raise the funds to meet the Arizona
liabilities of the company. amounting
TO $4,000, if they were compelled to
face the litigation incident to inyolun-
tary insolvency proceedings.
Mr.. OMAN, last night, was not in
position to venture an opinion as 10

s6me operations, stating that his sole
information was that contained in the

A large amount of capital is neces-

One thing seems certain, and that is
that the big smelter. which is the

When the plant suspended opera

men were discharged. but were simply
laid Off" temporarily, and they we've
assured by Mr.. Oman that their
wages due them would be paid by the
18th of this month. Some of the
workmen became unduly alarmed and
Jumping their claims, hired a lawyer
and attached a carload of matte in
the yard which was to have been
shipped to the refinery the next day
The sale of this matte, had it been
allowed to be shipped, would more
than have met the amounts due for
wages. By reason of this hasty and
ill-adyised action, the workmen will
sacrifice considerable on account of
attorneys fees and court expenses.
Since the shut down of the smelter
several families at Humboldt have
been in real distress, and these have
been aided by Mr.. Oman out OF his
private purse. His generous action
has been the subject Of much com

nned remarkable strength within the
last several weeks there is no ques-
ton, but to what e-,ent this improve
ment will influence the action of the
directors of the Amalgamated Copper
company and its subsidiaries In fixing
the coming quarterly dividend is prob
lematieal That the margin of profit
in copper on a basis of current prices
is narrow there is no question, and
besides production has been cut down
to 80 or 40 per cent Of the normal
output.
II is pointed out, however, that tae
copper recently sold was produced
when the mines were operating full,
and the margin of profit IN present
deliveries is naturally larger than
would be the case IL the copper sold
had been produced since the curtail-
ment policy became operative. In other
words, the copper turned out on a

time this month.
That. the operating costs of the
Butte mines have been increased ma
teTially is evident from the fact that
the output in October was only s.
$4,000 pounds, or approximately 80
per cent of the average for the first
half of the year The production in
October was at the rate of a little
over 00,O0O,000 pounds, whereas the
state Of Montana in 1906 turned out
nearly SOC. 100000 pounds.
In view of the recent large sales of
copper and the reduction in miners

dends win naturally be more favorable
than would be the case if conditions
