.BL AIMING ROGERS
 FOR THE PANIC

What purports to be the real story behind the panic of last October is now being eagerly discussed in Wall street It deals with H. H. Rogers and a dream he had as wild as that of any alchemist of the middle ages, who sought to turn base into a pre- cious metal. Today Rogers is broken in health and is said to have lost at least half his fortune He is the only one of the great financiers believed to have been seriously crippled in the panic.
 Rogers made his first money as speculator in oil. The Standard com pany controlled so great percentage of the total output that it was easy for an outsider to know in advance the course of the market
 Thomas W. Lawson tells in ''F'ren- zied Finance" how Rogers got into the copper game. He planned to make his monopoly of copper as com plete as Rockefeller's monopoly of oil. For a time this monopoly began to show wonderful results. From a price of 12 to 16 cents per pound it reached in March last year a market value of 255s cents per pound
 Everybody but Rogers doubted if this price could hold. He, however, declared to his associates that copper had become a precious metal like gold and silver, and its price would be practically as standard as the price of gold. No longer" he said, lis it base metal like tin and iron" The discovery of alpctricjfv and connar'S world wide use was the magic of its

PARADISE DISTRICT MINES
Savage


 It has been decided to install the new machinery on the Little Eva claim in the new 50-foot vertical shaft' This claim adjoins the Snowball, on which is the 200-foot shaft-incline. the scene of the center of Savage ope- rations during the past year. The new shaft is about 300 feet northward of he old one.
 This 50-foot shaft is all in good ore and is considered more promising than the Snowfall, if possible. The ore is silver, carrying only a little copper. Most of it carries from 75 to 90 per cent or more silica The smelt- CT pays a premium, it is understood, on all such ore if sorted to 77 per cent or higher in silica.
 The machinery was to have been shipped on or about the first of Feb ruary and Is expected to arrive soon.
 A force of men is still at work on the new wagon road, which is now complete from the company's office to Cave creek, It will be continued onward from the creek to the stage road and from the office to the mine. It is being built for heavy traffic and durability and will when finished be one of the finest roads in this portion of the country.

LEASERS WORKING MORRISON PROPERTY Los AnegIes Men Spend S100,- 900 There Last Year On
 Machinery

PRESCOTT, Feb. 25.-Among the many miners thrown out of emplpy- ment in the Big Bug district by the closing of the Humboldt smelter, as' fall, who have made successes devel' oping prospects for themselves or leasing promising properties are James Coyne, Jess Shiefds and Arthur Anderson, who secured lease on tne Dad Morrison" property, recently, and who are now making preparations to sink a shaft on the vein.
 This property is located in the vi cinity of the New Year and Rebel mines. both of which have produced ore of a high grade. Coyne, Shields and Anderson are miners of many years experience. Miners from Mo Cabe state that they are displaying much energy in the starting of devel opment on this newly acquired ground and predict that they win add anoth- CT producer to the many in the Big Bug district before many months.

formation, he believed.
 This happened last spring. In June the price of copper fell to "A cents and in July to 22 cents. Rogers be- gan to see his great dream crumbling and fell ill His illness came at the crisis of the great copper corner ne had planned. The consumers of cop per, who had previously stocked up on a rise of the market, stopped their orders as suddenly as if somebody had cut them off with pair of scis- sors. Copper fell 8 cents more and reached 19 cents per pound in August. Another crash. and by the middle of September 1t was down to 16 cents. Then came the inal panic and it hit IS cents in October. This was just half the price Rogers had put it in March. Copper had ceased to be a precious metal and had become bass metal again.
 No other great commodity, neither, steel, wheat corn, cotton or anything else, showed any remarkable fall in price. The price of only one commod' fly, copper, was cut in half. The ota. CT great falls in values were paper values, held by men like Morse and Heinze. In copper only was there a crash in real value.
 History will undoubtedly show that back of the bubble blowing which everybody noticed, the real cause or the 1907 panic was Rogers dream that copper was precious metal.
 Today the only property of. the Amalgamated which Is in full opera tion is the Boston & Montana com pany, located at Great Falls.

 This is a mistake" he continued Besides a large number of smaller operations, a Los Angeles concern spent over $I00,000 in the equipment of group of placer mines on Hum bug creek last year. bitches and fumes four miles in length have been built, a complete hydraulic plant has been installed and a number of oth- CT improvements made. The fumes. one of which Is 300 feet in length ana 100 feet in height, over the bed of the creek where it crosses the Hum bug, are built of galvanized iran, held by bridges on heavy framework. The stand pipe is 80 feet in height, afford ing a great pressure. Everything is now almost ready to commence the washing of the creek beds and bars along the banks, which have been proven by actual tests to be very rIca.
 The !company's holdings commence at the point where Humbug creek empties into the Agua Fria river, ex- tending up the creek a distance of seven miles. The management an nounces that it is the intention not only to wash the creek bed but all of the bars as well.

Mefc.tt. who las TO- turned from trip to the northern part of tht. county lpo1rts gold strike in he vici3,ty Of Payson which win probably prove to be one Of the richest ever made in this sec tion of the country The strike was made on property belonging to Su- pervisor W. c. Coleord and his brother H. S. Colcord, in Round Valley. about five miles southeast of Payson. the ore being encountered Tn a tunnel on one of a group of three claims belonging to the Col cord brothers. A three and a hali foot ledge was struck. which cari.es high grade gold ore. Several assays were made, the lowest of which shows SS0 gold value and already fifteen tous of ore which average s1,000 ton has been extracted from the tunnel. There were two and a half feet of snow on tle ground when Mir. Merritt left, but it was not impeding the work to an, great extent.
 The strike was made on claim on which practically no work had been done, although for three years Mir Colcord has worked surrounding claims. A ten stamp mill which was shipped into Payson by the Single Standard Company, Is being put into shape at tae property of that com pany. which is about three and one half miles from the Colcord property and it's first run will be made on the ore taken from the latter property. The Single Standard Company. a LOS Angeles concern, has suspended opr.' ations and if work is not resumed by them. MT. Colcord will enter into ne gotiatiops for the mill.
 A number of Globe people have claims in the vicinity of the Colcoro property, on which nothing except as sessment work has been done for a number of years past and the strike made by the Colcords will probably stimulate mining activity in the Pay son district. as soon as the snow is of the ground. Mir. Merritt states that there are a number of prospect ors in that section and many of them are packing dirt down to the Rye creek and banning in the stream.

Today's markets were quiet and oi. the whole prices were practically uH changed over yesterday. Coppers did not display the strength of yes terday, although a few showed better prices. North Butte was again active' but sold of at the close. Butte Coali- tion, Parrott and few others showed better prices. but the general list was unchanged. Local curbs remained about the same, Superior & Pittsburs showed signs of weakening, selling to 12 1-2. Shattuck and Denn held about the same with fair demand New Works were inclined to be weak with considerable selling with lower prices at the close.
