 NEW FURNACE
THE SECOND ADDITIONAL FUR MAGE PUT INTO COMMISSION BY c. & A. THIS SHELTER HAS FINE RECORD.

| As an evidence that the mining in dustry in the Warren district continues to grow, it was reported today that the Calumet & Arizona company had started a new 500-ton furnace at the smelter in Douglas. This makes the second addi- tional furnace put into commission by the c. & A. this year. Prior to last January this company had never oper ated more than four furnaces at one time and they were each of 300-ton ca pacity, while the new furnace just com pleted and put into commission is two ffths larger in capacity.
 The Calumet & Arizona smelter has been the scene of great deal of con struetion during the past year. Since the first of January a new machine shop, a new blacksmith shop and the new power house have been all completed and occupied and vast amount of new and modern machinery has been install cd in these buildings.
 According to the plans of enlarge ment at this shelter, agreed upon more than q year ago, the original five fur naces which are of 300-ton capacity are all to be enlarged and this work is to be the next undertaken by those hay ing charge of the construction depart ment. After the original furnaces have been enlarged another 500-ton furnace is to be constructed and when this is all completed the total capacity of the plant will be no less than 5000 tons of ore daily.
 This plant, during the past six months, has been handling large amount of ore from the Superior & Pittsburg proper ties. The starting of the new furnace today will probably mean consider able increase in the output of copper for the month of September over that of last month.
 The Calumet & Arizona smelter has a record of production equal to any ever operated in the west. It was started in the fall of 1902 with two furnaces and has never been down because of any reason, except perhaps one or two holidays during that time.
 The output of the Calumet & Arizona for August was something over four million pounds of copper from five fur naces.

$. J. Beahan. copper expert for Hay den, Stone X Co.,, on his return to New York from a two months inspection of the western copper mines, says that cop per conditions in the west show general improvement, one of the strong features of the situation being radical feduc- tion in operating costs as result of Improvements, extensions, etc. 'The forced closing of the mincs,' he says, twas not without its good results, as it gave the various companies an oppor tunity to reorganize their working forces, introduce economies and to a great extent revolutionize methods of production which would have been i'm. possible with the mines working to their respective maximum capacities.

MARKET NEWS

The feature of yesterdays market for the copper stocks was the continued strength of Superior X Boston and Ari- zona Commercial, both of which gained half point, while the rest of the mar ket was weak and closed lower. The importance of the developments in the Great Eastern are not fully appreciated, neither are the possibilities of the Black Hawk lode. When they are, the shares of the Arizona Commercial and Superior & Boston will sell at much higher prices.

Many irregularities have developed in the stock market during the week, and, with the exception of the highly manip- ulated shares, the active issues show a disposition to recede to lower levels. This tendency is rather the result of technical conditions than the public be- lief that the end has come. to the bull campaign. The so.called outside ele- ment has apparently disposed of q large part of it's stocks on the rise and seems to be awaiting another opportunity to get in the market on a substantial reac- ton, which it believes. with some jus tifcation, is due On the other hand, those in charge of the Hartman cam paign are steadfastly supporting their specialties and resisting natural and healthy recession.

The present inactivity of the authori- ties at Washington on the subject of law breaking corporations and the pre- datory practices of malefaetors of great wealth and other Undesirable citizens whose offenses were receiving so much attention few months ago seems to give some color to the Wall street report that a temporary truce has been declared with these evil doers to extend throughout the political cam paign now in progress. The operations of predatory plutoeracy were never more pernicious, nor were the machina- tions of the malefactors of great wealth ever more malevolent--to carry the pop ular alitefation a bit further-than they are today, if current Wall street gossip may be credited. Still no re- straining hand is raised at Washington, and Wall street openly boasts of the as- surance hat nothing will be done off cially to disturb the general good feel ing before election, and perhaps until the end of the year. The argument is made that the great capitalists must be allowed to proceed unmolested in their work of bringing about a restora- ton of confidence and promoting the general improvement in business which has already made it's appearance.--New York Journal of Commerce.

The half yearly report of the Associ- ated Merchants company, which owns a chain of large retail dry goods stores, reflects the tardiness of the business re- vival, and its cautions president does not believe that trade will be much bet ter until the election is out of the way. The building statistics for August, the iron trade records, and imports and ex- ports statistics, all show that the coun try $ progress toward normal conditions is painfully slow. But does this neces- sarily condemn an upward movement in securities to the level of pre-panic daysl Much will depend upon how the presidential election result pleases the business community.

TO teddy
War Department Refuses to.
Allow Pine Bluff People.
10 Cut River LeVee TO.
Save Town From Flood
and President Is Called ON

Pine Bluff, Ark, Dec. 1.--While ap-
pealing as a last recourse to Presi-
dent Roosevelt that permission be
granted to cut through the govern
ment levee and change the course Of
the Arkansas river, leaving Pine
Bluff high and dry" but safe, every
available man in this city has been
put to work streng ngthening already
crumbling banks until the crest OF
the food passes this point, probably
Wednesday. in an effort to prevent
ar overflow which would mean the
danger of property valued at hun
dreds Of thousands Of dollars and
possibly loss OF life.
The plan suggested yesterday was
that a strip of land, several miles
north of this city, where the river
starts a horseshoe bend" be cut
through, but federal permission,
| through the department Of war, could
mot be secured
Late today a message appealing to
President Roosevelt was sent, but ev-
len should the necessary authority
now be granted, the water is rising
too rapidly to prevent the success
full carrying out of the plans. To-
night the river has passed the l5-foot
stage and at its crest a stage of 26
fleet is anticipated. The food stage
is IS feet, and with the banks in
their present weakened condition as
9 result of the recent high water and
the rains Of the past few days, it is
believed they will be washed out.
