JAPANESE GETTING
THE FREIGHT BUSINESS

Consul w. T. Gracey of Tsingtau
advises that an Osaka newspaper
publishes the following significant
statement:
ut will be remembered that the
Nippon Yusen Kaisha Japanese
Steamship company has lately char
tered several steamers in addition to-
those which are under construction
for the company at various dock
Yards In this connection it is Wor-
thy of notice that the cargo for the
foreign vessels is rapidly decreas
ing, while the freight carried by the
Nippon Yusen Kaisha is increasing.
A year or two ago it was usual for
Nippon Yusen Kaisha steamer to
have cargo only to 80 per cent of its
capacity, while foreign vessels were
full. at present the conditions are
entirely the reverse of this. This may
partly be attributed to the increase
in the number of foreign vessels, but
the chief cause is the growth of pub
lie confidence in the Kaisha and the
constant loss of credit by foreign YES
sells. The public will remember that
the Iwai Shokai advertised in the
English press that it would never ask
any steamer belonging to certain
foreign firm to handle its merchan-
disc, their vessels according the Sho-
kai very unsatisfactory treatment.
Also the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha has
instructed all it's branches abroad to
ship cargo only on Japanese vessels
in future, owing to the unfavorable
attitude of foreign vessels.
Vice Consul General G.. b. Cham
berlain of Singapore writes of a re-
port that the japanese line, Nippon
Yusen Kaisha, has decided OCCASION
ally to dispatch cargo boats to Eu-
rope in addition to the regular pas
senger steamers. The auxiliary ser
vice was opened by the Colombo Ma
ru leaving Yokohama on June 9th.
The steamer was to call at Kobe, Mo-
il, Hankow, Shanghai, Hongkong,
Manila, Singapore, Colombo, Suez,
Genoa, London and Antwerp. The
steamer to follow will be the Ceylon
Maru, and then the. Bombay Maru,
thus making three vessels engaged in
the auxiliary service.

JOKE CAUSES GREAT
GOLD EXCITEMENT

According to L story published in
the Carson News, the reported gold
strike at Millers on the Tonopah &
Goldfeld railroad last Sunday was a
rank fake The excitement was
caused by two Greeks who planned
joke on their companions. They
got some rich sand that came from
Nome and put it in beer bottle and
reported that it came from the we'll.
They showed the sand to woman
and she took some of it to an assay
er. When the assayer saw it, he
went through the roof. He staked
about everything in sight around the
mouth of the well Then some of the
men in the Tonopah mill at Millers'
got next to the fact that there was
something doing and they quit work
in swarms and staked about every
thing that the assayer hadn't taken.
Next came the butcher and grocer of
the town, all of whom widened the
circle OF the gold zone, and finally
the find was whispered over the
phone and clicked over the telegraph
wires north and south
People rushed to Millers by the
hundreds and the surrounding coun-
try resembled pin cushions, so nu-
merous were the staked claims. The
joke resulted in the discharge of the
Greeks.

MAY GET TOGETHER
ON COPPER PRICES
PRODUCERS AND CONSUMERS
SHOULD FIN VALUES OF RED
METAL.

Notwithstanding sundry and divers
rumors that the big copper producers
were going to get together and agree
upon a price for copper that would
he acceptable to the consnmers-no not
overlooking the statistical position of
the metal, says the American Mining
Review, the fact remains that prices
are still unsettled for while the Off
cial price of copper (electrolytic) is
22 cents pound the actual price is
lust what it can be bought for-and
no more. So long as copper compG-
MES, or selling agencies. continue to
fill the immediate requirements of
consumers, just so long will prices
remain unsettled, for II consumers
can get what they want to go along
with there is no necessity-so long as
they feel assured that prices will not
advance-for their entering into con-
tracts for large future deliveries. Pro-
ducers could, were they so deter
mined, force consumers into the mar
ket, but they have not got the nerve
nor the honesty to stand together on
such a roundup" Consumers long
ago discovered the weak link in the
copper chain; they know that there
are companies tnat cannot afford to
pile up copper supplies. These weak
err brothers must sell their copper to
get money to continue production
and to provide the dividends which
their stockholders expect and re-
quire; moreover, in so doing, they
prevent their company shares from
being slaughtered on the altar of the
bears" Consumers understand
these things and know, as they have
known, how to take advantage OF
them.
Since the foregoing was written
the United Metals Selling company
New York, has notified its customers
that the price of electrolytic copper
is II cents per pound. Phelps
Dodge & Co., New York, quote cleo
trolytic at the same figure.
Shrinkage i'm Production.
A Boston copper authority says
that the large producers of copper in
America are figuring upon heavy
shrinkage in the output for this year
among them being the Amalgamated
Copper company and Phelps, Dodge
e Co One of the largest producers
estimates the reduction in output al
about Z IL per cent, as compared
with last years production A re
duction to that extent would bring
this years production in the United
States down to S32,500,000 pounds
only a little more than was pro
duced in 1904.

City Council Without Discussion
Rejects Bond of International
Bank and Trust Company.

Despite the lnclemency of the
weather last night, the city council
met in regular session at the city hall
and transacted considerable business.
The matter of greatest interest was
the disposition Of the city's funds. A
resolution was introduced by Alderman
Starr changing the aggregate bond Of
the banks receiving the deposits of the
city funds from 5000 to 1000.
After listening to the views of Sey-
mour Jones, cashier of the Iuterna-
tional Bank and Trust company on
this matter, the resolution was amend
ed 81 as to make the aggregate bond
$4,000 the same as it has been for
the past year. Then, on motion of
Alderman Starr, the bond of the Cher
odee National bank for $4,000, with
the Southern Trust company as secu-
rity, was accepted by the council.
BY permission OF the council Mr..
Jones was again allowed the floor and
requested tnoSe voting TO reject the
bond to give some reason for their ac-
tion. This request was ignored, the
members voting against the bond de
clining to give their reasons for such
action.
An ordinance was introduced Great
