way for the success of her suit by

DuN,s WEEKLY.

NEW YORK, November 6.--Dun & Co., Weekly Review of Trade will say:
 Seasonable weather stimulated the re- tail trade, while manufacturing plants were more active and numerous new undertakings have been started. Senti. ment Is moro hopeful regarding the commercial future, and orders are being placed for remote delivery, which is a noteworthy improvement. This attitude is conspicuous in preparations for the holiday trade, which are on 8 liberal scale, and there is feeling of conf. dence that renders holders reluctant to do business when concessions are sought.
 All leading industries have increased their output, some having already re- ceived large contracts, while others op- crate more freely in anticipation of orders to come. Commercial credits are more extended, and there is i'm. provement in mercantile collections.

One hundred and ninety thousand shares were issued, $l0 paid, leaving them assessable for $l5 per share and were delivered in payment for all the mines, mining rights and property of every description of the Helvetia Copper company of New Jersey, the original company, further considerations being that the Helvetia Copper company of Arizona should assume and pay the in. debtedness amounting to $sl,ll4 of the Helvetia Copper company of New Jer- sey, and that the stockholders of the latter company should be allowed to exchange, within specified time, their stock of the Arizona company, share for share; these obligations have been fulfilled.
 Beyond the s5o, 900 proceeds from the sale of the full paid stock, all funds for carrying on the work have been raised by assessments on the l90,000 shares. These have been called in two assessments of s1 each, and three of 50 cents each, making $3.50 in all, amounting to s665, 900, practically all of which has been paid. This will all soon be paid, for under article of the bylaws, stock shall be sold for non.paynient of assessments when de- linquent specified time.
 "The Helvetia properties comprise r. 7s5 acres, all contiguous and situated thirty miles southeast of the city of Tucson on the west slope of the Santa Rita mountains in Pima county, Ari- zona, and are unincumbered. The thir- ty-eight patented claims and scrip land insure sufficient land for town site."

vaneed by leaps and bounds. Copper stocks were especially buoyant, rising in sympathy with. the further advance in tho price of the metal. Recorded high prices for the year in many stocks wcrc shattered and several issues made new high records. The local stocks wers all strong, Old Dominion and Arizona Com mercial leading the advance. The con-. tinuance of tho bull movement is je- pendent largely upon the extent to which tho public swells tho buying movement. Tbefsafest buys would seem to Dc tho best of the low priced cop pers, which have not yet hnd much of rise.
 The longdelayed reports of tho New York Central lines covering July, Au- gust and September were a helpful fac tor on account of the big improvement shown by the September earnings Tho September net of all lines showed an increase of $s39,00o against decreases respectively of s77s,000 and s7S5, 900 for August and July.
 The record of sales in the metal markets during the month of October, 1908, which was the anniversary month of the panic of 1907, was a most en. couraging one. Sales of iron, steel, copper, tin and lead are estimated as amounting to upward of s4o,o00, 900, and possibly unreported sales were suf. 6cient to bring this total up to $50 900, 900. Contracts placed for iron and steel products are conservatively esti- mated at 100000 tons, of value be- tween s25, ,o00,00 and $3o, ,000, 900. Cop. per transactions aggregated over sl3,. COX, 900, sales of tin nearly $2,000, 900, and over e5oo,00o worth of lead changed hands. This business in the aggregate far exceeded that done in any othcr month since the panic and the great bulk of it was done during the last two weeks of the month.

THEY MUST HURRY
Tax Commission Notifies the
Delinquent Corporations.
Many Property Reports Are Yet
to Be Received.
BOARD is AT HOME.
Nearly ALI Inspection Work Is
Completed.
Expenses of the Trip Have Been
at Minimum.
BOARD is AT HOME

One of the first acts of the state tax
commission on its return from its rail-
way inspection trip was to notify by
telegraph all the corporations which
have not yet sent in their property
reports that they must do so without
delay or run the risk of getting into
trouble. The Prairie Oil & Gas com
pany is still out. but its report is prom
ised for this week There are half a
dozen big private car line companies
which have not yet made any report.
The time limit for the private car line
companies did not expire until April
20.
Aside from inspecting the terminals
or the Missouri Pacific at Atchison and
Leavenworth. and the Santa Fe shops
at Topeka, together with about 100
miles of Grand Island tracks in Kan
sas, the inspection work of the Kan
sas state tax commission is at an end
for this year.
Next week the commission will begin
the actual work of placing a value
upon the railroad property, using the
railroad company's reports and esti-
mates and their own observation of
conditions as a basis for their work.
The board had $4,000 appropriated by
the Legislature to pay the expense Of
their inspection trip, which has been in
continuous progress for the past three
weeks This fund will not all be used
in the expense of the inspection. The
! COulI1llSSlCu IllTGQ d private car at $l5
per day, and then each person in the
car paid the regular mileage rate of 2
cents for every mile travelled. In this
way the expenses of the trip were kept
very low. The commission travelled
cnly on regular trains, no special loco
motive being given them.
1t is expected that it will require sew
eral weeks to complete the work of pfac-
ing a value upon the railroad property
of the state. When the commission has
finished making its assessment, each
company will be notified, and will be
given an opportunity to come before
the board and make any objection de-
sired to the value agreed upon by the
commission. If the raiload is able to
persuade the commission that the as
sessment is too high, the commission
may change it. On ts7e other hand the
tax commission maySswant more infor-
nation about the company's property
than is given in the company'S regular
statement. and the conference will give
opportunity to get this information.

Mr.. REEDER'S SALARY.
How the Kansas Congressman Has
Economized in Help.

Washington, D. c., April 22.-Some
of the politicians out in the big
Sixth Kansas congressional district
are charging Congressman w. A.
Reeder of being guilty of nepotism in
office 1t is claimed according to re-
ports that he has installed members
of his family in soft and lucrative
paying berths in the house of repre-
sentatives, such as private secretary
and clerk and other positions con-
nected with his committee room.
It can be truthfully stated that no
Immediate member of the Reeder
family is or has been on the pay rolls.
However, Mr.. Reeder's brother-in-
law, H. p. Andrews, holds a good
position in the house.
Shortly after entering the Fifty
sixth congress, Mr.. Reeder had his
brother-in-law appointed on the cap
ito1 police force at $1,100 year. In
1902 Mr.. Andrews was appointed an
assistant journal clerk in the house
which pays $4,000 a year and re-
qufres only duty during sessions.
During his nine years of service in
the house Congressman Reeder was
never known to have employed a
private secretary. The work, how
ever, was performed by Mr.. Andrews,
and the general supposition is that
Mr.. Andrews drew the pay of two po-
sitions-that of an employe of the
house and as secretary to Mr.. Reed
er. 1t is known positively that Mr..
Reeder has regularly drawn the pay
Of secretary every year since entering
the house. The annual allowance for
secretary up till last July was $1,000;
| now it is s1,5o0 year.
If Mr. Andrews has not received
the pay of secretary, then the Sixth
district congressman has materially
increased his own annual income for
| nine years past. The annual amount
drawn by each Kansas congressman
| is $9,700 This includes salary at ST.
500; secretary's salary, $1,500; mile
age, $500; stationery allowance, $125.
| Up until two years ago, Congress
man James M. Miller never employed
| q private secretary. He was assisted
| in the work of his correspondence by
| his wife and she drew the pay for
/ seven years. When Mr.. Miller was
selected as chairman of the committee
on claims it was necessary for him
| to have a clerk. Mr.. Meyers was
selected for the position, and now he
acts also as the Fourth district con-
gressman'S secretary.
