There is a good profit In marketing
on commission the product of mines.
On Oct is the United Meals Selling
Co.. which handles the copper pro
duced by the Amalgamated colstit-
uents, besides other large mines. paid
a quarterly dividend of So per share,
or SO $3.50, 000) at the rate of zoe
per annum on the $5,000,0 900 capital
Zation. Since incorporation in Jssn-
uary, 1900, the United Metals Selling
Co. has declared dividends amounting
to $3.50, 900. Recently the New York
Metal Selling Co. a close corporation,
capitalized at 500, 900, and marketing
something like 10000, 900 ID. of cop
per annually, declared an initial div
idend of 1917. Similar profits are be
ing divided among shareholders in
other metal selling agencies. This
fact has prompted the Gugenheims
who are large producers of silver, cop
per and lead, TO do their own selling
hereafter. Heretofore the United
Metals Selling Co. marketed a large
part of the products of the American
smelling & Refining Co. The loss OF
so important a contract must be keen
ly felt by the Lewiston agency.
OF interest to the copper trade is
the announcement that the 20,000,000
to 100000 ID. to be produced an
nually by the Nevada Cons. and Cum
berland-Ely mines will be sold ON a
commission of 10 for at least one
year by the American Smelling &

the Guggenheims are also interested
in the Utah Copper Co. the American
Smelling & Refining Co. will after
next February sell the product instead
of the United Metals Selling Co.,
whose years contract will expire at
that time. The Utah Copper Co. is

Not Enough Sellers In the Mar
ket Now To Make 1t Look
Like a Profit Taking Affair.
Metal Going Higher.
(By Frank J. Graft

The market continues to be on the
advance and from all indications
higher prices should prevail before the
close of the week. ! think the adj
vanced prices that We are seeing are
here to remain for some time to come
and that the market is not profit
taking one by any means. Everything
leads me to believe that we viii see
better prices and this is due to the
fact that there are very few sellers in
the market.
Amalgamated, the leader of copper
stocks, took on two points and held II
during the entire market. Anaconda.
North Butte, Butte Coalition and Cop
per Range we're the features of today's
copper SHARES. Greene Cananea show
ed strength the entire day, closing a,
$11.62 to $11.75. Superior & Pitts
burg is being well supported the en-
tire session at $3.50 and looks az
though it would go to the $50 mark.
Black Mountain is in good demand at
$3.50. with sales at 1892. Black Noun
tain ought to be purchased at these
figures. DEM Arizona is also in
good demand, sales being made at
1897. The entire market ought to be
bought for a long pull and there is no
reason why we should not see better
prices all along the list.

Whining, SnGIters and StOCR Quotations
ON THE EVE
OF BIG BOOM

Charles B. Genung the white-haired
patriarch of Quartzsite related to me
as having been revealed to him by a
claireyoyante in San Francisco sew
eral years ago. For all could swear
to old Charley may have been play
ing me for a simple. trusting orphan
or the ''witch-woman" may have
played Charley.
l don't go much on such things my
self and suspect that 1t was really a
case of undertaking rather than
claire-voyance-that the witch-woman
read what was pictured in Genung's
mind rather than visioned the actual
scene Yet in either case the mystery
is about the same for she described
wildly to Mr.. Genung the country
around the head of Gonzales pass in
the Dome Rock range west of Quartz
Site and said: Therefor there
net very far away-is the richest gold
deposit in North America
Now it's a fact that that is the
scene-"near there-not far away
of some of the richest of the old plac-
Iers, and they are worked up to this
day. They are working now. Geolog-
ically. l must confess it would be
hard to find anywhere in the mining
states of the west a more likely
looking spot to contain the greatest
gold deposit of North America - But,
as usually happens tif you've ever no
ticeO there is a lack of preciseness in
the witch-woman's description of the
scene. It fits the scene at the head
of Guadeloupe pass in the Plumosa
range east of Quartzsite about as well
as the head of Gonzales pass to west
of the camp. The old road from La
Paz passes through both.
If by any of the little slips that are
always occurring tif you have hap
pened to take notice. in cIaire-voy-
ance it should turn out that the witch.

that it's at thte head of Guadeloupe

AMERICAN ZINC PROSPECTS

Boston-H s. Kimball, president OF
the American Zinc, Lead & Smelling
Co.. is in Boston. He says:
With tae return to normal condi-
tons, the American Zinc, Lead &
Smelling Co. is in shape to take Inn
mediate advantage of any rise in the
price of spelter. The spelter market
is stronger and has an upward ten
dency, and the ore market is in the
same condition.
Last year spelter went as low as
3.95 cents per pound. The present
price is AIS cents, and the average
price for five years previous to last
year was 5.25 cents. The present
price of so per cent zinc ore is S3t
per ton. II went as low as S2S per
ton last year, and the average price
for five years previous to that was
S3S to $40 per ton.
The mines of the American Zinc,
Lead & Smelling Co. are now operat-
ing to so per cent capacity and our
shelters at So per cent capacity. The
Maximum annual capacity of our
mines is $4,000 tons per annum and
the capacity of our smelters is 10000
tons Of concentrates per annum.
For the month of October we will
show net earnings on this reduced
capacity of between $4,000 and $780,,
600, which is at the rate of better
than $3.50 per share. For the three
months previous to October, our net
earnings averaged about $4,000 per
month.
These figures of earnings are ar.
rived at after charging off all inter

TAMARACk MAY
SHOW SOME PROFIT
In Spite of High Cost and Low
Copper Prices, No Loss
Is Recorded,

Boston-In the minds of many,
Tamarack, for some time, has been
considered in the down and out"
class. This has resulted from the
known fact that the company's cost
Of operation has been very higb-due
to the very deep mining and usclin-
ing copper values in the rock treated
and that there was little If any
profit for the shareholders on copper
market under IA cents per pound.
1t may surprise even thu stockhold-
ers themselves TO know that for the
first nine months of this year Tama-
racks actual cost per pound of COP
per-and in this cost we do not in
clude the expense of extraordinary
opening and construction work-waS
but a fraction over lie per pound.
In GLIDING this construction and open
ing work, the cost was about Is cents,
so that, on an output at the rate of a
little over 100000 pounds of copper
per month. Tanarack is likely to
come through 1908 without encroach-
ment upon the $712.942 surplus as oil
date December 81, 1907.
What is still more important in con-
nection with Tamarack is that the cop
per yield SO far this year has averaged
four pounds per ton of rock higher
than the q pounds recovered in 1907.
All of Tamarack's shafts are yerti-
cal and tap the conglomerate lode at
great depth. Like Calumet & Hecla,
Tamarack is not getting so high a
copper yield from the deep workings
as it secured from the upper levels,
but notwithstanding these operating
handfcaps, the mine has been quietly
pulling up on its disastrous record oil
1907 and is doing better than for
years.
The policy which the management
is pursuing in regard to underground
openings is one not generally under
stood, but it is one which means much
for the future operating economies at
this property. For some years it has
been the policy to drive the levels to
the extreme boundary limits of the
company's territory before stopping a
pound of ore in the ground thus
opened Having thus driven the lev
els, stopping will then begin and con-
tinue back in the direction of the
shaft. This means a most complete
extraction of the lode matter, as no
"pillars" are required. and necessi-
tates very much smaller timber ex-
pense as compared with the usual
methods of mining.
1t will thus be seen that Tamarack
in the matter of underground open
fDgs has already paid for many miles
of drift Slopes which are yet to show
return to tle shareholders. The day
win come, however, when all this
opening work will have been com
pleted and Tanarack will then show
some mining costs which may be sur

to put itself in shape to supply it's

from these Slopes.
Tamarack has many years of avail

up and paid for. II takes time. money
and large supply of patience to open
mine in this way, but It pays in the
end and pays well.
The mine is preparing to reduce
greatly the cost of pumping, bv drain
