ONLY a FAIR ATTENDANCE.

There was only a fair sized crowd
at the Congregational church on Sat
urday night to hear the concert given
by the glee and mandolin clubs of
the university of Colorado. The at
tendance was very disappointing to
the Young Mems club. of the Congre-
gational church, who had the enter
tainment in charge. However the
proceeds were quite handsome and
a neat sum was cleared by the Young
Mems club.
The glee and mandolin clubs of
the university have been heard I'm
Grand Junction frequently in the
past and II seems to be the general
opinion that the clubs are not as
strong or versatile this year as they
have been in other years.
The mandolin club was perhaps
stronger than the glee club. However
the program was very pleasing and
the various numbers were thorough
ly enjoyed by the audience.
The young gentlemen left the city
yesterday. They enjoyed their visit
to Grand Junction very much.

REPORTED LET-UP IN
BUSINESS is SENTIMENTAL.

BOSTON, July 1.-THE Phelps
Dodge interests say that any report
ed let-up in business is sentimental,
that while there is no legitimate rea-
son why copper prices should be re-
duced based on either production or
consumption, they anticipate that the
producing interests will agree upon
a price of 22 1-2 cents for electro
lytic copper for delivery in the next
three months. The producing in
terests have not begun to accumulate
copper as yet and there is no appar-
ent let-up in consumption though
the consumers have practically used
up their surplus copper stocks and
will be compelled to re-enter the
metal market within ten days.
While the price of electrolytic
came very close to the price of the
best Lake copper, during the famine
period it should be remembered that
a difference of one-half cent pound
between electrolytic copper and Lake
copper when the price of copper is
IL cents should mean a difference
of one cent per pound under normal
conditions wnen the price is around
25 cents.
1t is therefore probable that the
Calumet & Hecla price will be above
23 cents if, this month. the electro
lytic price is to be made % 1-2 cents.

WAR THE LAST
Thing JAPAN
IS LOOKING FOR
(By the Associated Press }

COLORADO SPRINGS, July IL
Count Katosomo of Toxic, Japan,
while stopping over between trains
today on his way to San Francisco.
whence he will sail for Yokohama by
the first steamer, made rhe following
statement:
"If one will reason for few min
utes he can realize that the last thing
Japan wants now is a war with the
United States. Japan has not re-
severed form the effects of the Rus
sian war. We have not money
enough to carry on prolonged
struggle In the first place, and, sec
ondly, but more important, we have
all the territory that we can handle.
We have Korea on our hands, and the
world knows something of hard that
little kingdom is to bring into shape.
Then comes Formosa, which is prac-
tically a savage country. This would
be enough, If we did not have the
vast territory of Manchuria TO re-
habiliitate. 1t will be years before
the country can be brought to any
thing like order"
Count Katosomo was asked what
he thought of the assembling of the
great fleet of United States warships
in the Pacific.
''It is a move that has been looked
for on the part of the United States
at any time" he replied. Il do not
regard it as warlike move any more
than if your country sent great
fleet to England or France. Your
ships must be in the water some
where" he concluded, with a smile.

MAKE QUARTERLY CONTRACTS
FOR DEFINITE AMOUNTS.

BOSTON, July lin addition to
the 10000 pounds of Lake copper
bids for which were received last
week by the naval department at
Washington, the government has al
so purchased $4,000 pounds of Lake
copper for cartridge purposes from
the Quincy Mining company at 25 3-S
cents pound. Deliveries, which
are to be made in carload lots must
be completed within 80 days of date
of contract.
The bids received for supplying
this metal were: Jas. Clendenin, B.
e. r. brand, bid 23.69c; Jas. Glen
denim, Calumet & Hecla brand, bid
26.39c; Quincy Mining company
Quincy brand, bid 25.375c; United
Metals Selling company, Osceola
brand, bid 25.50c.
Award was made TO the Quincy
Mining company because the B. E. r.
brand proposed In the lowest bid of
James Clendenin was not satisfac-
tory for making cartridge cases.
Regarding further purchases of
metal by the navy, Secretary New
berry of the navy department Says
to the Boston News bureau:
"For the past few years it has
been the custom to contract for not
only copper, but also other metals,
such as lead, zinc, tin, ETC., on an
annual contract providing for deliv-
cries to be made in such quantities
and at such times during the fiscal
year as may be required.
1.-The market quotations for these
metals fiuctuate rapidly, and the
time and quantity of deliveries were
indefinite. The bureau experienced
considerable difficulty in obtaining
deliveries under these conditions
from certain contractors, who had
found towards the end of the fiscal
year that the market had operated
against them.
"These conditions did not result
in real competition, as it was prin-
cipally a question as to which firm
was willing to take the greatest
chances that the market prices at
the end of the year would not be
higher than those quoted at the be-
ginning. The government was, on
the other hand, taking similar
chances.
'tTo remove this Objectionable and
speculative feature from these con-
tracts, the bureau decided it would
be for the best interests of not only
the government, but also for the
contractors, to make quarterly
contract for deliveries to be made
in definite amounts, and within GER
tain periods"

.EMPHATICALLY
DENY RUMORS
OF A RUPTURE
Two Distinguished Japanese Declare
There Is No Unfriendly
Relation.
(By the Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, July 1.-Two dis
tinguished Japanese took occasion
today to say in no uncertain way
that there was no unfriendly issue
between the Japanese and the Amer
leans, and to decry the undue i'm
portance attributed by some to triv-
ial incidents.
The champions of peace and
friendship between the two coun-
tries were Admiral Baron Yama-
motto, guest of the city, and Viscount
Aoki,. the Japanese ambassador, who
came from Washington this morning
to attend the reception and luncheon
given by the Japanese Society of
America in honor of Admiral Yama-
motto.
In the course of formal state
ment, Ambassador Aoki said:
There exists between the two
governments no difficulty or ill-feel-
ing of whatever sort There is not
the slightest cause for anxiety in the
American-Japanese relations, and If
there is any anxiety it is not because
of the actual existence of any diff
Guilty between the two countries, but
because of the demagogic influence
of some unwarranted press talk that
often tends to drive even the calm
est-tempered of the public into a
whirl of tempestuous rage"
Speaking of the luncheon at the
Hotel Astor, Admiral Yamamoto
spoke in a similar strain.
Rear-Admiral Robley d. Evans,
commander of the Atlantic fleet, said
that when the newspapers of this
country stopped making war between
Japan and the United States, the peo-
pie would come to their senses and a
better feeling would exist all around.
During the day the Japanese adj
miral and his retinue visited the
navy yard. They spent some time in
specting the different buildings and

DRUNER AND GUGGENHEIM
FIGHTING IN ALASKA

SEATTLE, Wash, July 11.-A
special to the Seattle Post-Intelli-
gencer from Valdez, Alaska, tells of
the preparations for armed conflict
between the Copper River & North
ern railway forces and the Alaske-
Pacific railway men at Katalla. The
Copper River railroad which Is
known throughout Alaska as the
Guggenheim proposition, aiming to
tap the Copper River district, is at
tempting to cross the right of way
of the Alaska-Paeific company,
so aims for the Copper River dis
trict by way of Lake Charlotte.
The Bruner people have applied
to- Governor Hoggatt of Alaska for
protection by United States troops,
alleging that the Guggenheim forces
contemplate an armed attack upon
them. Authorities at Valdez admit
that the situation is serious.
The launch Pioneer, which ar
rived at Valdez today from Katalla,
brings word that the Bruner road
has erected "go-devil" at the eros
sing which the Guggenheims are
trying to take. The machine by
means of donkey engine, swings
continually across the tracks, max
ing it impossible for men to come
within a radius of fifty feet of the
Bruner line.
The same launch brings the re-
port that blockhouses of thick tim
ber have been erected along the
right of way by the Bruner people
and that the Guggenheim operators
are paying 50 an hour to fighting
men with a bonus of 500 to the
first man who crosses the Bruner
right of way.
The Copper River road is now
built about twenty miles from Katal-
la. The Bruner road so far has
done nothing but terminal work at
Katalla. Since its start a few months
ago there has been constant trouble
between the Bruner road and the
Guggenheim people.
Several times the right of way of
the Guggenheim road has been dyna-
mited when the Bruner engineers
claimed the Copper River road has
crossed their territory. An injunc-
ton asked by the Alaska-Pacific Rail-
way and Terminal company against
the Guggenheim road was denied.
