TRADE SHOWS
IMPROVEMENT


New York, April S.--Dms Review
of Trade tomorrow will say
While the volume of business is still
much below normal, moderate i'm
provement is constantly noted. although
the rate of progress is very different
in the leading centers of trade. Aside
from the idleness at bituminous coal
mines. which is not expected to be
prolonged April did not bring any
serious labor disputes, and many
wage earners were enabled to resume
work by accepting small reductions
in pay.
Sales of pig iron have been made
at lower figures than at any time since
the decline began, although regular
quotations are nominally unchanged.
Hides maintain the recent improve
nlent in activity and prices, while
some descriptions have made further
gains.

NEVADA DOUGLAS coppER.
Good News Comes from Mine super
intcndent hrtntz

That the Nevada Douglas Copper
company is opening up magnificent
copper mine at Yerington. Nevada, Is
duly emphasized in the report which
reached the Office Of General Manager
Waiter G.. Orem yesterday afternoon
from Mine superintendent Samuel $.
ArentE
The Export had been anxiously
awaited Tor several days as It was OK
pected TO contain detailed information
about the late developments on tho
550-foot level of the Ludwig mine and
which Mr.. Arentz considered to be OF
enough Importance to advise the salt
Lake office Of the company by wire.
For some time past Mr. Arentz has
directed considerable energy towards
the development of the ore bodies on
this level. drifting TO the south and
west In an auxiliary drift from
the west diift what appears TO be an
immense body of chalco pyrite and
bornite copper ore has been opened
into and the daily assays of the entire
face since it was encountered have run
from sol to H. AZ per cent copper;
while IN the south drift, which was
mentioned in Mir. Arentz's message, the
values have run close 10 s per cent
copper.
In the winze being sunk from the 400
level during the past week, eight tons
of ore averaging per cent copper and
ten tons averaging 3i.S7 per cent cop
per We're taken out and sent to the
surface.
There IS one thing | like about the
Nevada Douglas company" said a we'll
known mining man today. ITS officers
are not afraid to take shareholders in
TO their confidence. They come right
out and give facts and figures, which
cannot be said of some other so-called
big copper companies ! know of and
| dare say there is not another copper
mining concern anywhere in the west
that can snow such splendid smelter re-
turns from ores shipped to the Salt
Lake valley shelters as the Nevada
Douglas management can"

But on arriving here he finds that he would have to wait ten days for a steamer at Juneau and that he can make a little time and incur no more expense by going to Seattle and taking boat from there by the outside.
