Mr.. Smith was attending to bust

for a few minutes mining conditions
in his section. He takes a very op-
timistic view of their future. His pro-
perty, which is the Commonwealth, a
gold and silver proposition, is going
along nicely and, while Mr.. Smith
did not feel that conditions warranted
his saying that there is any likeli-
hood of an increase of a substantial
character in the number of men en-
plcyed, he was very glad to say that
work at the mine is not going to stop
and that it will go forward at the
present rate. His purpose in going
to Los Angeles is also to secure an
additional oil fuel contract, which in
dicates that production is 10 be con-

ORE SHIPMENTS
HAVE BEEN RESUMED
Twin ButteS Sends Out First
Consignment Since the
Slump Months Ago.

TUCSON, Ariz., April 16.-Ore
shipments have been resumed at the
Twin Buttes. The first consignment
of ore sent out of the camp since the
slump in the price OF copper, arrived
in Tucson on Saturday night and was
transferred to the Southern Pacific
to be taken to the smelter at FL
Paso. There we're ITO tons in the
shipment
President e. T. Davis of the Twin
Buttes Mining and Smelling company
arrived in Tucson Sunday from the
Twin Buttes mines, where he has
been for a week directing operations
in the absence of Superintendent Will
Ham C. McDermott, who has Deen in
Phoenix on business for the COM
pany.
President Davis stated today that
an addition had been made to the
force of miners and that operations
are to continue steadily at the mines.
He said that the ore shipments for
the present will be 200 tons per week
The shipments viii be 100 tons on
each of the days during the week on
which the freight train is run be-
tween Tucson and Twin Buttes.
Mr. Davis stated that both day and
night shifts are being operated on
the 300 and 400 levels at the NINE
He added also that force OF min
ers would be put to work on the 500
level as soon as pumps could be in
stalled to handle the water at this
depth.
The news that the Twin Buttes
mine had resumed ore shipments will
be cheering to the local mining dis
trict. There is every indication that
the shipments viii be continued stead
lily through the summer
President Davis stated that in ad-
dition to the force which is employed
at the mines in taking out ore, an
other force would be kept steadily at
work doing development work

PLAN FOR SETTLERS
ON IRRIGATION
Secretary of Interior Devised
Plan That viii Be of Benefit
to the Farmers,

The secretary of the interior has
devised plan for helping the set
tiers on many of the irrigation pro-
jects who have evinced a desire to
help themselves. He has arranged a
simple plan of cooperation whereby
any settler SO inclined may secure
work on the construction of the
canals and bitches on the big irriga-
ton projects in the west. The con-
tracts with the water users associa-
tion are subdivided into units inyolv-
ing comparatively small yardage. and
payment is made by the association
in the form of certificates. These
certificates are accepted in payment
for water rights.
Usually a group of farmers takes
a contract together and divide the
work between them. In this way
many industrious farmers will be able
to work out the whole OF their in
debtedness 10 the government. The
new plan has several advantages. 1t
creates a greater interest among the
farmers in the work the government
is doing for them. It enables the
settler of moderate means to earn
money while awaiting the completion
of the work. 1t makes possible for
the settler with teams to pay in work
the entire cost OF his water right.
Further it brings about community

EARLY RECOVERY
LOOKED FOR
in METAL PRICE
Tendency Has Been Down
ward, But Change for the
Better Is Predicted-Fu-
ture Hard to Guess.

BOSTON, April 17.-Produeers o.
copper admit that developments in
copper over the last week have not
tended to strengthen the sltuatio.:.
but al the same time they report nc
falling off to speak of in domestic
buying. They say sales to domestic
consumers last week were satisfac-
tory, although the tendency of prices
was downward
Early in the week the United Met
ais Selling Co. made sales as high
as 1315 cents per pound. Two lots
of 100000 pounds each were sold at
that figure. If any copper has been
sold to domestic consumers by the
United Metals Selling Co. below 10
cents pound, there is no one identi-
fled with the company who viii ad-
nit il.
Il is difficult to figure out the
course of copper prices over the next
few months, but the consensus OF
opinidn in copper circles the latter
part of last week was that prices
would show a recovery before the
close of the current week.
A representative of one of the
try had the following to say regarding
the copper situation: Everything de-
ponds upon the attitude of domestic
consumers. We have been selling
fairly large quantities to domestic
manufacturers. Sales have been far
below " hat they generally are in nor
mai periods, but large enough to con
vince US that stocks in consumers
hands are exhausted, and that they
will have to continue buying if they
wish to keep their respective plants
in operation"
In copper trade circles there is
some apprehension over the entrance
of additional supplies of copper n
the market from the Butte mines that
have resumed. 1t is feared that I'M
less there is some Improvement for
the better between now and June, ad-
ditfonal c0ppF will tend 70 keep prices
down. However, il is figured thar
the Analgamated, even if it is forced
to sell its copper at II cents a pound,
viii not be any worse off than Il ii
had decided to operate only the Great
Falls smelter Even 11-cent copper
will enable it to operate its mines
at a small profit-that is, If it can
sch its entire production, whereas
the expense of keeping idle mines in
good condition would have offset pos
sible earnings through the operation
OF only the Boston & Montana.
H. H. Rogers Is expected back from
Bermuda within the next few days.
The meeting of the directors OF the
Amalgamated Copper Co. is scheduled
for next Thursday and there nave
been no Sntimations of a reduction in
the dividend, which in the preceding
quarter was at the rate of so cents
share. 1t is said that the earnings
of the Analgamated, including its in
come from sources other than copper,
have been sufficient to meet dtvi-
dends at the rate of 81 a year.

April 1e, 1913.
Today's market shows little or no
change from that of yesterday, al
though stocks IN general are trlne
weaker. It is very likely that the
entire list will stay at or near those
prices for some time to conc, al
thoneh it is more probable that ihey

way, due to the fact that stocks nave
already declined to such low point

In the past months there has been a
