Mine Has not Been Operating During Recent Months. But Much Has Been Done
 for Stockholders.
MANAGERS ARE WORKING
 ALONG SENSIBLE LINES
There Are Many Likely Tracts the Company Has not yet
 Given Its Attention.

i, 6IVen> It's Attention. Greene-Cananea, during the term Il has been no1-productive of copper has nevertheless been doing business Of greatest importance to it's share holders. The gentlemen who nave been cOnferring with the officers of the Mexican government have ac. complished much for their company all of which was warranted by the conditions surrounding their enter prise, but which had to be presented Tn practical way in order to secure the attention, due. It takes time to move governmental bodies in indiYid- ual matters, and the haste which has been made in this particular instance is very much at variance with the time usually employed to work out problems with any country. Just now cooperative matters are deafr with very cautiously and couserya- lively. In our own country they are not seeking reductions in cost of Op- eration, but trying to dodge laws and escape attacks that threaten tuen very existence. Mexico has not yet reached any such extraordinary polit- ical crisis. The republic does things well in a political way and with very little excitement or trouble
 Mexico. too. stretches out her hand to capital. knowing its value in open ing up her vast resources. She treats the legitimate operator well and is willing to assist with liberal laws and with exceptions in case she knows he is deserving.
 The Mexican officials recognize the value of making a success of Greene CanaHea. That wCu;d mean a great deal q money put iat0 Mexican min ing circles that might not come if the big copper camp could not make a profit. Mir. T. E. Cole and his asso- ciates presented their case to Mir. Diaz and his congress in the right way, as they are 50 well able to do. Every point was emphasized, and the business shown up in the proper man ner.
 The result, So far as We have been able to learn. has been highly gratify- ing to the officers Of the mining com pany. and it is also pleasing to the republics leaders who appreciate the . 10 boti government and mining oper- atcrs. UnquestiOnably the work of the officers of Greene-Cananea will be the means of saving many millions of dollars to their company. as the plan decided upon will be a permanent one.
 While the negotiations for needed concessions Have been under way. the mi rF h., Tr, not been idle. Ever since the shelter stopped last Tall there has been q very active pressing of new work; so that now betterments are seen upon all sides. Of the improvements lrCn Ore has frequently spoken. One Of the important features will be a modern blast furnace plant which will be a great improvement over the old smelters, it possessing much greate' capacity with the accompany ing reduction in expense of operation. It is patterned after the modern fur naces Of the Amalgamated company. renowned for their great size and eT- ficielcy.
 In making these changes and ex- tensions the managers of the con- pany realized the fact that they had the ore to warrant the expenditure. Work has been going forward in the mines ever since the s-nelters were quieted. And upon all sides the ore deposits have grown in size. At the older workings. the CapOte and Over- sight, the extensions of openings have revealed excellent ground. as rich in copper as any that has been worked on the principal levels of that portion of the mine. At Cananea Central the showing of ore now eX. posed is wonderfully big and makes the manG cement feel that 1t would like to be putting it through the works. All the properties of the company in the immediate vicinity OT Cananea Central are opening up splendidly.
 There will be plenty of ore of com mercial quality to keep the works busy when they are started up. and that's an encouraging feature in any mining venture And much mGl. o.L will be needed to supply the smelters and furnaces than before the shut down as there will be much greater capacity for taking care of it than be- fore.
 There are many likely tracts of the company not yet given any attention. It has an acreage that is all well To- cated and much of it yet untouched. Of it's ore supply none need fear. It will be ample for the needs of the company for very many years.
 As to the time Of resumption noth- ing definite is known. There has been much done in the tine of non prcductiveness Of copper, but there may be still more to be gained. It will be time well consumed if thi be true and it can be obtained. The shareholders. when they learn the much that has been accomplished in their interests will feel well satisfied
 And the metal market is not yet right for the additional many million
