PRODUCTION
 OF ALL COPPER
 IN TERRITORY
About 8,0o0,0O0 Pounds Per Month Below Capacity of the Shelters in Arizona, h. Cluding Fl PaSo.

The production of copper in the territory of Arizona is now back 70 normal. but still about S,0o0,0OO pounds per month under the capacity of the 10 smelters of the territory, in cluding the Fl Paso Copper smeirer of the American Smelling and Refin- ing company. which is tributary uo Arizona ores.
 The estimated production of copper of Arizona for the first six months of 1908. by camps and companies, has been as follows. We likewise give the monthly smelter capacity of each company:

 The Consolidated Arizona COppei acompany's Humboldt smelter is cold, and the company is undergoing Ie- orgaE Eization. The Benson smelter is likewise idle, but was never a sue cess, except possibly to the promo tsrs. The Imperial company's smel- ter is being enlarged to a monthly Cd pacity of 1.250,000 pounds and the Copper Queen and Calumet & Arizo- na smelters are both being increaseo in capacity.
 The Arizona smelters now have a monthly capacity of B 400,00 pounds of copper per month, as against d present output of about 25,000,O00 pounds per month, so that there is plenty of room for growth.
 It is very evident that the territo- rvs production this year will exceed last years figures of about 26,000,0UU pounds, with the first six months output at the rate of 270,0O0,00e pounds per aunum- Arizona should this year again lead all states in cup- per production, as it did last year. and by the time MOntar2 is in po- -sition to get back to normal conuI- tions. Arizona should so increase as to maintain it's lead.
 Next year there will be another smelter erected, that of the Shattuck- Arizona company ct Douglas, con- tracts for which vol soon be let let, while the Arizona Commercial Copper company is now raising molf sey for the erection of a smelter plant,
 The Globe district is showing the greatest progress of any of the ATi' zola camps and the most promising new property there is the Miami un' der the development of AdOlph Lew isohn and associates.
 It is apparent that the old compa nies, with the possible exception ol the Old Dominion, have practically met the limit of their production and that any further increase will have tn come from the newer companies- the Superior & Pittsbufg, Shattuck & Den companies in Bisbee, the Arizona 1nd Miami companies at Globe ant the Ray properties at Kelvin whicl are controlled by the Utah Coppe' people. There are many small prop critics scattered all over the territory however, some of which may deyelol into innn0rtant DrOducerS within tli next five years.
