Man From Rochester Wins Hearing and Help
in Washington-More Than $4,000
Raised


SEATTLE, WASH, May 27-(Specal correspond
ence)-The series of meetings in this state by
Mr.. Clinton N Howard has proved one of the
most remarkable ever undertaken in the history
of the Prohibition party in the state of Wash
ington The campaign closed here yesterday
with two monster meetings which gave full
thousand dollars to the state committee.
Mr. Howard has addressed large audiences
wherever he has spoken and has won remark
able reception for his message. The contrlbu
tons of the people may perhaps be taken as the
best tangible token of their appreciation of the
speaker and his work and the hold that the
truth which he has proclaimed has taken upon
them. If this be the case Mr. Howard was
widely appreciated, and his message took deep
root with his hearers The contributions at the
twenty five towns where Mr.. Howard addressed
meetings total more than four thousand dollars.
This does not include the $50 paid in advance
for each meeting to guarantee the expenses of
the occasion. Omittng five places where the
meetings were held in connection with church
services and no appeal made for funds for
the state committee, the receipts averaged 5000
for each meeting.
An illustration of the interest taken is given
in the case of Catholic priest at Sedro-Wooley.
The meeting was held in the Presbyterian church,
the priest sitting in the congregation. When the
collection basket in the hands of the pastor Of
the church reached him, he emptied his pocket
book into the basket and taking a pledge card,
pledged SIP year to the state committee

committee in declaring for state Prohibition was

DISTRICT
 MINING IS SLOW

Mining developments in the War ren district just now are very nearly expressed in the words of the famous essay on Snakes in Ireland" namely, There aren't any.
 A canvas Of the vario1s mining ana brokerage offices in Risoee, as well as a poll of the street groups of the unemployed, reveals ! decidedly more hopeful feeling than exfs1ed couple of weeks ago, but with little tangihl le basis for such a sentiment.
 As one broken expressed it: There is nothing the matter with this end of the copper business--th9 producing section. It's the other end of 1t that needs doctoring. When the world wants copper We can furnish it in any quantity Until demand rev3yes no action or development or F1cn strike in the copper country can help the situation. The ino5t Aelp- flIl thing the copper men can dc rcw is to do nothing and they're mostly doing it"
 There is, however. a more hopeful feeling prevalent throughout the Gis- trict. Prosperity-normal Bisbee pros perity-is probably some way of yet, but many seem to think that it is at least in sigat Although the supply of labor is still far in excess of the demand, yet few men are being put on and there is among all classes a distinct improvement over the inert

hopelessness that recently prevailed.
 A prominent mining man, with large interests in the district. sadd to g Review representative yesterday: There is and has been no overpro- duct.on of copper as some bear in terests have tried to establish. An examination of the trade journals will show an equal apparent overpro- duction of other things. In reality there aas beer no over-production of any ot these things, but rather a sud den and large cessation of consump- ton, which must, in the very nature of things, come to an end soon. Con sumption will be resumed, not sud denly as 1t ceased, but gradually. and this winter and next spring will ind conditions normal and the Warren district as usual, on top"
 Among the minor evidences of the resumption of activity may be men toned the fact that the Bi sbee Cop per Mining Company has resumed work on its tunnel just oy sr the di- vide, on the Tombstone road. itFe tunnel is to be run in 5000 feet under the old Gunsight workings. and the company expects to cut the ledge at a depth of some i 400 feet. Ralph Ingram has charge of the york.
 Dealers in mining machinery re port no important transactions, and the general impression prevails that no large orders will be placel h"fore this fall.

 NEW YORK, May 11.-There was a resumption of bullish activity in the stock market today and advances were general. Profit taking near the close caused slight recession from the high level, but a very large in crease in the public demand is noted The metal issues, which previously were inclined to lag, were in good de nland today, particularly Amalga mated and Shelters. Traders gen, orally were inclined to look for a ma terial reaction, AS the advance has been rather rapid, but on any signs of weakness today, good support ap- peared and the market rallied easily
 The advent of the public into the market is a very encouraging feature. but we are inclined to think that a level has been reached where extreme caution should be exercised when making purchases, as an unexpected break is likely to occur at almost any time. but on recessions from to 3 points the good issues should be pur- chased.

Among the prominent mining men visiting in the southwest at the resent time, is David Miller, of South Bend, In- diana, president of the Southwestern and Miller mining companies, oper- ating properties in various portions of the state of Sonora, the principal of which at the present time is the Or tega located about IS miles south of Cananea. He has just come from a visit to the Ortega, but regarding his presence iE Tucson would say nothing more than that he was here to attend to some matters of private business. When asked concerning the Ortega MT. Miller said:
 After the panic and depression which set in last fall we did not do much work at the Ortega until the last few weeks, although we kept a force of a few men on the property carrying on development during the interval. =---.--- .... "We have now started operations again on a normal scale and have A B. Wadleigh of Cananea In charge Under his direction the property is being opened up rapidly and the re suits already obtained are gratifying
 "The first shipment ever made from the Ortega was hauled up from the mine a few days ago and will probably be sent to the smelters at El Paso It consists of ten totns of unusually high grade ore, running better than 12 per cent This ore was taken from winze on the property.
 "The unnel is nuow in about geo feet and a winze has been sunk to deptf of 50 feet in solid ore, which runs very high and is said to resemble the well known black stope of the Capott mine, belonging to the Greene-Can anea-'

TRADING BRISK AT OPENING IF
 THE MARKET
Was Due Yesterday to Advance In New York Securities AmaIgamated Copper Was the Feature.
(By Frank J. Graf.)

Trading in the copper shares at the opening og the market was brisk, with a strong tone, due to the advance in the New York securities. It must be conceded by ali that the demand for copper stocks is great. for there is no copper metal at present that is being offered for less than 13 cents and is is also a well known fact that the copper that is to be put on the market within the next sixty days. will not be sold at a lower figure. Amalgamated copper was the feature of today's trading, making an advance of 1-2 points to 64, the highest fig ure for the year.
 North Butte and Butte Coalition showed considerable strength, and are being bought up heavily, due to the fact that there is rumor to the effect that 1t is expected that they will both pay dividend this month. Cumberland Ely is about to be listed on the Boston Stock Exchange. Greene Cananea was about the most active of the local copper stocks, sales being made at 8 3-S and closing at If. American and Warren are both rather active. Shattuck and Denn Arizona are both firm at 12 and 3-4. The entire list is very strong and better prices should be seen at the close of the week

HIGH GRADE ORE
 IN THE TENAMACHE
Is Said to Run S100 to Sf75
 a Ton.

GUADALAJARA, May 11-Drifting on the Planitas vein of the Tenamachc mines in the Territory of Topic has resulted in opening a body of high grade ore. For the last week this ore, without sorting of any kind, has run from s1G0 to S175 ton. Assays of selected ore have shown 16,000 grams silver and considerable gold.
 The rich ore is now being stacked for shipment, and will be forwarded either to San Francisco or Victoria. Shipment will be made through the Pacific port of San Bias. The com pany has found that it can secure low ocean rates, and a good profit will remain after the deduction of the transportation and treatment charges.

THE SANTA ROSA
 IS DOING WELL

At the 235-foot level F the original shaft two drifts are being run in op- posite directions. Shafts Nos 1 and 3 are TOO feet apart
 The Cabullona Development com pany secured this property more than year ago and since then has been working steadily. Hoisting and other development machinery was installed last year and great amount of work nas been done. The present force consists Of seventy men.
 The Santa Rosa property, is Is be- Iieved, by those who have made close examination of it from time to time, to be one of. great promise. The de velopment of producing mine there would result in greatly increasing the trade of Douglas. During the past year that city has enjoyed good busi- ness as result of the development of this property.
