WHAT HAS BECOME or HATTIE
 KNOX?
From WedDssday's psilyl

Is Hattie Knox, the woman for whom 'hc entire country for many miles around Humboldt has been searched, lying dead and manglcd at the bottom of some lonely ravinc or gulch m inc mountains. or has snc m. ccrcmoniously left the country wi,h- out notifying any of her friends or acquaintanccs'
 This IS inc question that many who have taken par, m the search for tho missing woman since she disappeared mystcriously from the Shelter City, last Thursday. are now asking them selves, as m spite of the most strcn- nOus efforts not a trace of ncr has been discovered. although men familiar with every foot of the mountains in the vicinity of Humboldt have been included m the various searching par ties
 The mmor circulated hcrc Monday to the effect that inc woman had been found. proved unfoundcd. yesterday, upon investigation hv Journal Miner representative, and inc hunt for her will he continued today by party of four men, we'll mounted The var ious mining camps m that portion of the county. as we'll as all deputy shcr. iffs and constables in the various pre- cinc,s. have been informed of the dis appearance of the woman. hut up to date she has no, been sighted. The mysterious manner m which sine has droppcl out of sight IS consid' cred one of the strangcst happenings to occur in Yavapai county in many years. Last Thursday. accompanied by two dogs, she started towards the nearby neaatnins for short walk. Later inc asgs appeared at ranch close 'o Humboldt. hut from the tims the woman left thc Shelter City until the present. not a sign of her. or n trace as io her whereabouts. has been secured
 Her friends fear she has met death. either at the hands of some unknown assailant. or through falling into some deep gulch, while others familiar with the affair are inclined to think she has for reasons unknown left the l country without being seen, leaving her friends to account for her disap- | pearancc as best they may.

BELIEVE BOTTOM PRICES ARE
 REACHED.

Dispatches from New York declare it seems to h" the consensus of opip ion among mining and copper men that the wors, is over so far as the price of copper ana the cutting of dividends are concerned. 4 cut of per cent per annum, it is pointed out, in Amalgama;ed dividends, would net investors, at the present price of the stock, quoted at the close of yester- days market at $js.75. the sam. re- turns as when this company's stock was selling at SEQ and stockholders were receiving dividends at the rate of s per cent annually.
 Amalgsmated interests are making no attempt Co conceal the fact that the heavy reduction in output now un- der way will result in an equally heavy increase in cost of production. On A basis of one half the normal output of the Amalgamated properties, the cost of production win, it is declared, run us high as l2 cents per pound, and, in some cases, l3 cents per pound, leaving a profit, at the present rate of copper, of 2ia or cents a pound. It is be cause of this small margin of profit that producers feel convinced that 16. cent copper will represent the bottom price.
