HILL A CANDIDATE
VIII Make a Special Effort 10 Get Place Held By
 Braudegee.

Washington, D. O., Nov 11.-Rep- resentative E. J. Hill of Connecticut announced his candidacy for the United States senate to succeed Sen ator Frank B. Brandegee. Recent newspaper publications along this line were not unexpected to MT Hill, When seen last night in his apart ments at the Burlington, MT Hill de- clned to discuss his candidacy at length, because he Is preparing a formal announcement and plea for support to the voters of Connecti- cut, which is expected to be issued in few days. Tn reply to mum. Der of questions, however, he dio make the following statement Of in- terest to his friends:
 / .I am going to make the race against MT Brandegee. expect there will be warm contest, but that will do no harm. Other candl- dates will undoubtedly enter the field before long, including National Committeeman Charles F. Brooker' We postponed making any announce ment until after the election in order not to complicate the situation Tn Connecticut. I understand Senator Brandegee has been actively working to secure his reelection for some time. anticipate that We will have to fight both MT Brandegee and Sen ator Bulkeley, az the latter may stand by his colleague"
 Representative Hill bases ms claim for furtber recognition upon his record and upon the magnificent endorsement he received at the re- cent election. He Is regarded as the original Taft man and has been a consistent supporter of the admin istration's policies. Senator Bran degee, on the other hand, MT Hlll friends say, is regarded as a reac- tionary. He is known to have op- posed the nomination of Judge Taft and to have voted against the Taft plan for the Philippine tariff. MT Hills friends expect that he will re- ceiye at least silent support from Judge Taft and that he will be suc- cessful before the legislature, wnich meets in January.
 The senatorial race is expected to develop in case of the field against Brandegee, with good feeling exist ing between Messrs Hill and Brooker and probably ex-Governor Mclean and other expected candidates. This was indicated by the following re- mark made by Mir Hill:
 "Mr Brooker," said he, would be a good man In the senate of in any other place." For the present MT Hii1 will not say what strength ms candidacy will develop, or rom where it will come. He says he ex- meets to remain here attending the tariff revision hearings of the ways and means committee. He will be represented by campaign manager in Connecticut however. Washing ton wishes MT Hill good luck.

SUGAR FIGHT
Reduction of Price Said 10 Re Due to Renewal of sn
 Old Fight.
BAD BREAK IN STOCKS

New York, Nov 11.--Price reduc- tions in refined sugar caused rumors to circulate in the trade to-day of a renewal of the old fight between the American Sugar Refining Co, and Arbuckle brothers. These reports have been based on the seeding down of the margin between raw sugar and refined is about 90 cents a hundred pounds. The gradual re- duction which has been in progress has brought the difference down to 73 cents. This amount, according to trade estimates is little more than the cost of refining, and cuts down usual profits by about two thirds. It was declared in circles supposedly well informed however, that the action of the two concerns in reducing prices was due to grow ing competition for business and it was in no sense bitter war such as was waged before. It was also said that the agreement reached some years ago between the late President Havemeyer and Arbuckle brothers had terminated and that the latter declined to renew it. This under standing was reached about 4 years ago and resulted in closing the breach between the two concerns, and until a month ago they had been acting in harmony.
 New York, Nov 11.-A violent break in prices of the stocks of the Hartman Pacific railroads caused a feverish and excited tone in the early stock market to-day. These stocks were unloaded in enormous amounts by speculators who bought them yes- terday on rumors that dividends were to be advanced at the directors meet ings to-day. Yesterdays rumors were discredited over night and the belief prevailed that only the regular divi- dends would be declared. Soon after the opening Southern Pacific sold down to 116 N compared with 117 E at the close last night and 119B at the highest yesterday. The low price for Union Pacific on the break was 1793s compared with 1S1 at the close last night and 1S1B at the highest yesterday. The whole mar ket declined in sympathy losses run ming from 1 to 3 points in the active stocks.
 Support became effective in the course of the first half hour and prices rallied with the effect of quieting the activity which had been at furious rate.

Democratic Paper to Support Taft.

The Baltimore Sun, the lealiny
democratic paper of Maryland, has
come out openly for Taft. Hitherto
in the campaign it had been giving
Bryan perfunctory support.
The three leading newspapers of
Baltimore are now aligned for Taft
and the prospects for the republicans
carrying the state are thus made
brighter than ever. The Sun recent
ly said:
"We believe the election of Taft
would tend to hasten the restoration
of prosperity. We believe that his
administration would be prudent.
Therefore we support him from a
sense of public duty"
The Sun says Bryan has his "big
club" and it would argue no better
for the public wealth than the 'big
stick" has done.

Less Copper Last Year.

The smelter production of copper
in the United States in 1907, accord
ing to i. G. Gates, of the United
States geo ogical survey,w W SIS, SO,
49l pounds. From the record figures
of 1906 this is a decrease of IS. 800, I9I
pounds, or ) 4 per cent the largest
actual decrease ever recorded and
the largest relative decrease since
the American copper industry became
important. This is the first time
since 1901 that the annual production
has been smaller than that OF the
preceding year and the first time
since 1872 that it has been smaller
than that of the second year pre-
ceding.
The total given above is made up
of the fine copper content of blister
produced and of the smelter on put
of ingOt and anode copper from Mich
igan. OF his quantity. approximate
ly l0,0I5,04S pounds il blister were
produced in foreign smelters from
domestic materials exported. In ad-
ditiOn 10 the domestic materials
handled, smelters in this country

ported for refining in this country.

ARIZONA COMMERCIALS STRONG
POSITION.
President Amster Talks of the Bond Is
sue and the Favorable Develop
ment in the Mine.

N. L. Amster, president of the com
pany, says:
There was never any question a;
to the success of this bond issue, fol
} the bonds are first-class lien on the
entire property, including the rail
road, which cost $4,000, and are {
three year call on the stock. The
bonds are callable at los, but should
they be called at any time for pay
ment, stockholders would always have
sixty days thereafter in which to con
vert. All convertible bonds issued
by mining companies are callable at
from 1O2 to 1O5.
II do not believe the favorable
position of the Arizona Commercial
Copper company is generally appre-
ciated. History has been making
fast underground in our property,
aud when we cut the ore body on the
50O-foot level of the Black Hawk in a
crusscut from the new Eureka shaft.
that gave us a length of over 1000
feet on the lode, and we know that
the ore body for its entire length is
from forty to forty-five feet in width.
The character of the ore is the same
wherever cut, and as we have drifted
on the ore on all the levels above
from the incline shaft, we know that
we have above ,500,OO0 tons of ore
in this ore body to the 500 foot level,
and we estimate that this ore can all
be treated at net profit to the COM
pany of S3 per ton on l24 cent copper,
or matter of 81, 500, 900.
THE important development, how
ever, is that east of the incline shaft
We sank winze to water level and
crosscut from the winze just above
the water level. We found that just
below the 5O0-foot level we have d
zone of secondary enrichment where
the ore runs from 8 per cent to y
per cent copper. AS the same ore
conditions exist the entire length of
the 50O-foo level drift, we have every
reason to believe that when we sink
our big Eureka shaft another fifty
feet to the 600-foot level, which is
matter OF thirty or forty days time,
we shall run into rich ore.
"An indications point to the Ari-
zona Commercial Copper property
developing into one of the big mines
of the country, and l was never so
confident of the company's future as
l am today in the light of recent de-
velopments. The stock sold at 81
several years ago with nothing like
the showing we now have. 1t should
not be forgotten that the Black Hawk
is not the only property owned by the
Arizona Commercial Copper com-
pauy. We have the Copper Hill and
the Cochise workings, both of which
are properties of great proniSe for
the future"
