do, de ojos saltones, barba ne
gra cortada a 10 catalana, con
el sOmbrero siempre en- la coro,
nilla V blandiendO una gruesa
cana de las Indias? Este sen0r
era mi amigo Rodriguez; no re
niamos, no me insultaba. Es-
cuchad.
Fui presentado q Rodriguez
para COlabOrar Ell una revista

persona, capaz del mayor sacri-

Habia sido empresario de tea
tros, director de peri6dicos agre

una casa de juegO en- Malaga,
inventor de un submarine.

Por las tardes. nos veiamos en-

Better Market
Before the

". II. THOMPSON EXPECTS THAT
MARKET WILL DISCOUNT RE
PUBLICAN SGCCESS-TALk OF
COPPER SITUATION.

In an interview printed in Boston
last week. W b. Thompson was
quoted as follows.
II am looking for a temporarily un-
certain stock market because of polit-
zeal conditions, but all my reports in
dicate that the election of Taft is
assured and the market should be-
gin 10 discount that fact about TWO
weeks before election.
As To copper, il is apparent that
the European market is pretty we'll

but the spectators as well. have

We cannot expect very much help
from the other side in assimilating

that We are producing more copper
than We are consuming but as there

which ease we may get higher priced

The various mining companies
with which | am identified are all
making excellent progress. The
Utah Copper company is now firmly
as one of the five leading
copper producers of the United States
though ouly a few years old. The
TWO Ely companies are preparing to
output the metal at the rate of about
100000 pounds per annum by

figure It any way YOU will.
You see, the fellows on the out
side are determined that the ma
chine bunch shall not get in and the
fellows on the inside are determined
that the outs shall not get a smell.
They are going 10 take particular sat
isfaction in knocking every candidate
the Democrats from principle are for
or had anything to do with putting
through the convention. On the
other hand. the Denis from principle
are going to hand the cold deal to
every Dem for revenue that the ma
chine bunch has in the forefront
Now. as the convention determin-
ed. even after il had been doped and
pulled into an alley to be robbed by
the machine crowd through its pri-
mary scheme, the Dems for principle
and the Denis for profit are fairly
evenly divided around these dig
gings Therefore we get down TO a
plain case of subtraction. Take the
machine vote away from the few anti
machine disciples on the ticket and
they are beat. Take the anti-ma-
chine vote away from the machine
candidates and they are beatEand
there is your entire ticket wiped off
the slate for the benefit of the Re-
publican ticket.
That is the way II stacks up at
present. They are cutting each 9TH
ers' threats. Oldfeld, for instance. is
goner. The convention had 10 take
him. but the machine will not swal-
low. They are putting the knife into
him at every turn. Garaghan is also
on the list and getting IT in the al
leys. and so is Miles Mcknight is
getting the business put To him, in
spite of the fact that his end of the
deal was carried through and the
miners of the district robbed of Yot-
ing precincts And so II goes.
Il touched a little on the alleged
organization the other day and inti-
mated that they were at each others
throats 1t is getting worse. Gun
powder Fesler Is kicking now because
he has been shorn of authority To
large extent. Fact is he has been
pretty much ignored, Seems as II
they are playing the same sort OF
background game with him that they
are with Mr.. James Quarles. Tex
Hall Is also being showed toward the
rear but whether they are going to
succeed In making the lights look
dim around Tex or not Is another
question.
That depends a good deal on how

skating rink are Kid" Bennett. of

Smelter. and from present indiea-
lions the go will be one of the fastest
ever seen in this vicinity Both of
the men declare that they are round

neither will have any trouble making

Speculation as to the outcome of
the event is TO be heard on all sides
among the fight fans of the district.
each man having ardent hackers who
are confident their choice will be the
candy kid when it comes 10 pluck
ing the plum of victory.
Bennett is getting in a good deal
of hard work with Frank Hardin as
his training partner and is rapidly
rounding into form. His right arm
which was put out of commission to
a great extent in a Reno fight. has
gotten all right again and the punch
that he delivers with 1t certainly
looks like anything other than that
of a cripple. He Is confident that he
will have the lad from Smelter out
by the 18th round.
Rhue is going at his training in
systematic manner and while saying
little is equally confident. His for
mer experience with Bennett. when
he successfully withstood his rushes
for . rounds. getting a dra wdeei-
sion. gives him confidence that he will
win in the end. He was not in condi-
ton at that time, while now he has
been training hard for more than two
weeks.
AS yet little if any money has been
placed on the result of the fight. but
the odds generally spoken of are 10
10 on Bennett for a decision i'm the
20 rounds the fight is 10 go and even
money that he will put his antago-
mist 10 sleep before the 18th. Some
good preliminaries are being arrang-
ed. a battle royal between a bunch of
negroes probably being one of them.
