Right Of State to Bring Suit.
WASHINGTON d. c.. April 1s.-Attor-
ney Martin H. Voge. OF counsel for tho
Tennessee Copper Companies and other
smelling companies. located at Ducktown,
Tenn, in the original case Of the State
of Georgia against those companies,
which Is expected to be soon decided by
the supreme court of the United States
has filed brief in which he denied tho
right OF State to bring the suit, and also
declares broadly that no uppreciuble III
jury has been done.
Tile suit was Instituted to obtain an
injunction restraining the companies from
carrying on their operations because OF
the injury alleged TO have been done TO
surrounding vegetation across the Georgia
line. The case has attracted much at
tenton, as it is contcnded that the de-
cision will have a direct bearing on the
smelling Of copper all over the United
States.
Referring to the effect of an adverse
decision on the community. Mr.. Vogel
says the country is naturally sterile and
desolate, and adds: 1t is shown that
the people. realizing the advantage of the
high prices prevailing in the Ducktown
& district, have abandoned their farming
lands, or have given UP their meagre ag-
ricultural pursuits and have moved Them
selves and their families into the Duck
town mining district.

THE PRINCE OF PILSEN'S
HONOR ROLL.
THE

The return of "The Prince of Pill
SEN to the Salt Lake Theatre on
Friday next, for two nights and Sat
urday matinee serves to call to mind
the many women who have risen to
prima donna roles under the manage
ment of Henry w. Savage Pauline
Guzeman, who played the part Of the
widow in "The Prince of Pilsen,"
was a chorus girl when "The Prince
of Pilsen' was produced at the Broad
way theatre, New York City-after
having served delightful apprentice
ship as one of the famous Flower
Girls in Mr.. Savage's production Of
Richard Wagners sacred music
drama "Parsifal." Another impor-
tant member of the cast was Ida Stan
hope, who sang the role of the widow
in London and later at the New York
theatre, when the prince" was given
its second Broadway hearing. Miss
Stanhope appeared as the New York
Girl in the Song of the Cities" She
taught the kangaroo walk to Camille
Clifford before that clever Prince of
Rilsen' girl went to London and cap
tured for husband one of its most
notable titled men.

THE COAL GRAFT.

The latest rise in the price of coal
was accomplished in such an appar-
emily arbitrary way that a good deal
of i'll feeling was engendered among
those who were "nipped" by the deal
ers. One of the victims had pre-
viously ordered and paid for two tons,
the promise being that he would get
it in about week On the eleventh
day, which was Saturday, being entire
ly out of fuel, he called at the COM
pany's office to register a mild pre-
monitory kick He was informed that
the order had gone to the yard and
he would certainly get it that day,
which was satisfactory, or would have
been if he had got his coal, but he
didn't; it came while he was eating
breakfast Monday morning with
dollar a ton extra added to the price
Then the kicking as pronounced and
prolonged, "Why was it," he thun-
dered through the telephone that
coal that is already several days over
due was held till early Monday morn
ing, thus showing that it must have
been ready for delivery Saturday ev-
cning, unless it was TO catch him Tor
the raise adopted an hour before!

COPPER STILL LOWER.
Prediction Made That 1t VIII Not
Go Be[O7C Is Cents.

Considerable sales Of copper were made yester-
day at from Is to l5I2 cents a pound and though
no official announcement made by the United
Metals Selling Company of reduction from the
15-cent rate established last week Ii was stated
IN reliable quarters that it had reduced the price
ol electroiytic copper TO 154 cents. thirty days de-
livery which is equivalent to Is cents cash. Phelps
lodge d Co frankly declared that they had SOLD
copper at these prices representative of the latter
said
- 21ondltons have improved great deal. Consum-
ers are coming into the market. and several million
POUNDS OF copper have been sold at from 10 to l51s
cents thlnk the bottom has been reached and that
1he price viii not go below Is cents. We are doing
aro 80 aIIe business around that hgure. w
consumers. and I think fairly large transactions
VIII be made on that basis.
On the New York Metal Exchange yesterday the
price Of all grades OF copper reduced a
cent pound. Lake was quoted at Is to 151. cents;
eectrolytic. 14I4 to Is cents and castings 49, to
14i2 cents In London the price of the metal de-
ciined II LIS sd to f66 IS for spot copper. and
a special cable message stated that the United
Metals Selling Company had reduced the price Of
electrolytic copper from "a TO f7O ton.
dispatch from Butte, Mont. said that it was
officially announced that the reduction in the out
put of copper in that district 50 per cent,
instead of - per cent. which the announced
reduction at meeting of the directors of the sub
sidiary companies of the ANA gamated last week
The dispatch added that if conditions did not i'm
prove a further reduction would be made.
It was the consensus Of opinion in copper circles
yesterday that with the price established at Is
cents a pound the big consumers would come into
the market and the closing of fairly large CON
tracts generally looked for within the next
two weeks. Reports were current in the trade that
among the first of the large consumers 10 come into
the market would be the American Brass Company.
