confidence inspired in the business com munity regarding the prospect of an early revival in industrial conditions.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1908-11-13

The result of the increased activity in the security markets the world over is bound sooner or later to be felt in the money market, where rates of in. tcrest are already beginning to show q slightly hardening tendency. Any ex- pansion in general business will natur- ally increase the demand for money also. The banks, however, are well supplied with cash and will be in q position for some time to come to meet all legitimate calls upon them. The withdrawals of cash from New York to the interior have come to an end at an unusually early period. This fur nishes striking evidence of the strength of the western banking insti. tutions and indicates that they have learned some valuable lessons from the panic of a year ago.
 The revival in the copper industry is not without substantial foundation. From. 75,oOo,o00 to l0o,o00,0o0 pounds of refined copper were distributed in October, the sales for the first time in many months about equalling produc. tion. The greater portion of this busi- ness was for actual consumption, where as the trading in copper for the past year has been almost entirely specu- lative. The American Brass company, of which Charles F. Brooker, member of tho republican national committee, is president, is reported to have sup piled its needs for months to come at thre low prices prevailing-in the latter part of October Orders to the mt of millions of pounds have been paced since the election, as result of the victory of Taft and Sherman, and the

There have been persistent rumors during the week that the United States Steel Corporation is about 10 reduce the price of rails to $24 ton, at which figure the profit to the corporation would still be nearly 100 per cent. The steel officials, however, strenuously deny that there is any ground whatever for the rumor, and it is not likely that any reduction will be made, at least until the question of tariff revision comes actively before the country. If the new administration, however, full. fils its pledges as to tariff revision, it is difficult to see how the United States Steel Corporation, notwithstanding its intimate relations with the present powers that be, can escape its share of the general reduction.

Largely Increased Quail
fiCatiOn of Voters

Registration returns from five Of the
ten rural New Castle county Represen-
tative districts show registration to
date of 5,1S5 voters. The figures are largely
in excess Of those of any previous three
days Of registration and are fun of en-
couragement to the leaders Of the two
principal political parties. Sheriff Stafford,
who is receiving the book eom the
rural primary election officers, sa this
morning that the complete county regis
tration could not be announced at this
time because nine of the registration Of
fcers have failed 70 return their books
although the law provides that the books
shall be returned to the sheriff within o. e
day after the registration. The missing
districts make it impossible for the regis
tration figures OF five representative dis
tricts to be compiled.
The districts heard from and the figures
follow:
Ninth Representative district, 75i.
Eleventh Representative district ass.
Twenth Representative district, 81.
Fourteenth Representative district. 5A.
Fifteenth Representative district, 3l2.
