DIscoERED THE kLoNDIkE.
Florence Blade.l


 The Canadian Mining Journal claims that evidence has been gathered which shows conclusively that to Robert Hen derson, Picton, Nova Scotia. belongs the ncnor of being the discovered of klondike. In 1894 Henderson was out fitted at Ogilvie by his friend, Joseph Ladue, The summers of 1894 and 1895 he spent in prospecting the streams of the Indian river valley. During the winters of these years he mined alone on Quartz creek. In the summer of 1896 he discovered gold in Hunker creek valley, or Cola Bottom, as he himself named the district. Provis. ions gave out in August, and Tender son was forced to go to Ogilvie for fresh supplies. On his way back to Gold Bottom, by the Klondike river, he spent night on the present site of Dawson. It was here that he came upon Carmack To Carmack. Tender. son made known his discovery, and invited him to come up the Hunkef creek and stake. Carmack followed in a few days, staked near Henderson's discovery and returning discovered gold in Bonanza creek. Of this discoy- cry Carmack did not notify Henderson, but proceeded to Forty Mile, where he spread the news. At first his story was received with incredulity, but be- fore long the stampede began, and the new fields were staked out before Hen derson had been informed of their ex- istence. Owing to complications, Hen derson was refused discovery claim on both Gold Bottom and Hunker branches of the river. He was, how ever, given the choice of stalking one ordinary claim -on either Gold Bottom, Huner or Bear creeks, or the equiva- lent of one out of five claims staked before others. Carmaek's ingratitude lost to Henderson the chance of con trolling the richest deposits of the north.

CLARK SAYS II WAS
 tlyER PRODUCTION
United Verde Man Gives Inter- eSting Views on Cause of
 Present Slump.

PRESCOTT. Nov. 13.-Cbarles ". Clark. general manager of the United Verde Copper company. at Jerome. who returned there last week, after an extensive tour of Europe, speak ing of the copper market conditions past and present, said:
 The meteorie fall in the price of copper was due, primarily, to an over production, which was stimulated by the very high price of the metal, reaching. as it did. about 9 cents, but there has been another reason which will touch upon later.
 Tt was not until six weeks ago that it was ascertained by the general public that there was an enormous stock of copper on hand in the United States. This, at the present time, amounts to somewhere in ths neighborhood ot 225.000,G00 pounds. That this enormous accumulation could have taken place without it being generally known is not remarK able, in view of the fact that the pro duction of copper on a large scale is limited to about half dozen large companies in the United States, ana the disposal or sale of the metal is in the hands of three or four con cerns, but that the public did not know the condition of tae copper market. and, in fact, that some insid- CTS did not know it, is shown by the fact that not later than last August iII 5STTITI5I TJ1 E 15 h. - . ths iiifii iiifii ii;;Ee;SSiittiiGaG te understand the copper market, thoroughly, stated that there were practically no cop per stocks on hand. and that John Gillie, one of the active managers or the Amalgamated property, in Butte, practically so stated in an interview which he issued some ten weeks ago. no his return from the east. Why the Amalgamated company, which has undoubtedly from one-third to one-hah of this large supply of cop per kept this fact a general secret. il is hard to tell of course, it was but natural that when it became general ly known the price of copper should fall, as the consumers would natural ly be in position to dictate the price.
 Another reason, however, as stat ed before, for the material reduction in the price Tor the metal, is due to the fact that the enormous develop ments projected in the last year for electric railroad systems throughout the United States and Europe, whfch, of course. supplies one of the largest uses of copper, had to be abandoned on account of the general stringency in the money market, and the fact

Few copper mining companies in Ari, zona can boast of even keeping up average outputs, and it is much grat- ifcation for the Era to be in a po- sition to truthfully report handsome increases in outputs of the Shannon and A. c. companies. The new 1000 ton furnace at the Shannon plant is now working to perfection and it is reported that it is being worked to its full capacity with gratifying re- suits. shannon stock, as it justly should. is holding its own at a high level, when it is considered that many other stocks. recently selling on level with it, have dropped out of sight. Barring unexpected delays. the shannon company will most likely keep up it's usual output of a little better than TOO tons per month.

 The rich strike was made on the .eompany's property near Moreno, last October, and has attracted wlce attention, the surrounding country for several miles being staked out in claims as soon as the discovery by the New York-Arizona company be- came known.
 Speaking this morning of what the company has, Secretary Degener said:
 The property of the company IS located two miles west of Morenci. where the Detroit company has ex- tensive works in operation for the reduction Of copper ores, and at which place the metal has been pro dueed with profit for over tweno years.

Twin ButteS Very Successful

frucson Citizen.)

President D. s. Rose of the awlil Buttes left this morning for his home in Milwaukee. He expects to remain in the east five weeks and will then return again to Tucson.
 Discussing Twin Buttes conditions before leaving Mayor Rose said:
 T have finished my work here and will return to Milwaukee We have had phenomenal success in disDosing of our bonds and are now beyond every possibility of embarrassment. from a financial standpoint. At the mines we are closed down with the exception of the pump which we must keep in operation to prevent flooding of the workings. By the or ganiation of an entirely new system We look for better results as il ~ail leave Captain McDermott Free to give his undivided attention to min ing operations. At the same time it enables Us to work put more economical operating scheme
 'in making our annual report 10 the Interstate Commerce Commission it became apparent that t is 'actilil- bent upon us to conduct the railroaC separately from the mine or compli. cations might arise. It was for that reason, primarily, that we changeo the management.
 hen we shall begin shipping will depend upon the future of the yaIns.s -v ,o,,.sr, E-.., indication nstifies the belief that change for the bet ter has already begun. Some of the largest Chicago banks are insisting that currency payments be resumed If Chicago retires scrip the other large cities will be obliged to do likewise, and when the large cities adopt that plan the smaller ones will not be obliged to continue the pres ent policy. When the change comes I look to see 8 speedy restoration of confidence and that is all that is needed to restore prosperous condi- tions.
 There is an abundance oF money in the country. Money has been i'm ported in large quantities and it has not been burned. True it is not in the banks but it is in existence only it has been hidden and will come out of hiding and return to circulation when public confidence is restored. We have more money now than we have had in years; that is certainty The difficulty is there has been too much radicalism too much sensa- tionalisn. States have created pub lie service commissions that threaten lower fares, less earning and higher taxes. This has resulted in a general fright. Men of means will not build railroads, or water plants, or electric lighting or gas works because they are afraid of these commissionS. but it will all be adjusted upon a safer basis and what threatened a calamity will prove to be blessing.
 We shall probably continue some development work but that will re- main for Captain McDerm 7tt to oe- eide. The moment that copper metal lakes on little more value we saaII become active not only to develop, but to ship ore and when we begin shipping will be continuous.

There is no support there is active trading we cannot ex- pect much in the way of an advance. We believe however. that when tiere IS q turn for the better it will find the market bare of offerings and prices will go up with a rush.

EARLY LIQUIDATION
 MARKED TIE DAY
Locals Are Quiet Market De Bends on Eastern Finan-
 Cial Deals More or Less.
lBy Frank J. Grail

Today's market witnessed mora or less liquidation during the greater part or the session, and at the close tnere was some buying. very likely due to short covering over the morn. ing sellers. The copper stocks suffer. cd, especially North Butte, Calumet & Arizona and Amalgamated. Calu- met & Arizona opened at S104 and closed at s100. North Butte raz weak the entire market, as well as Copper Range and Anaconda. The local market is still quiet, with con siderable stock offered above the mar ket prices. Shattuek is in fair de mand at s11.50. while Denn is offered at $3.00. Greene Cananea holds fi.-u. at $6 with few sales recorded. The market Sd whole holds well and con ditions will depend upon eastern fin ancial transactions.

 BOSTON. Nov. 13.-Considerable selling of North Butte came from New York and the stock ran off cas- fly to S37.25 with a rally later to s3s. Rumors of passing of dividend are causing considerable short selling in this stock and we expect to see them get squeezed Calumet & Arizona was the other weak stock. declining five points on small sales. Instead of improving general sentiment seems to be getting more pessimistic and the short interest is increasing. Do not sell at these levels buy buy good stocks for investment.
