FIGURES ON COPPER OUTPUT.
Engineering and Mining Journal
Gives Production of 1907
by States.

Our revised statistics show that the
production of copper In the United
States in 1907 was S79,241,766
pounds against 917.620,000 pounds
in 1906. says the Engineering and
Mining Journal. ne statistics for
1907 are based on reports from all
of the Michigan mines and all of the
other shelters as follows: III Re-
fined copper obtained from the min
eral' produced by the Michigan
mines during the year: % fine cop
per content of the blister copper pro-
duced by the shelters; t3) 10 small
extent the copper content of ore and
matte with suitable allowance for
lossD treated by eastern smelters and
the copper content of Milestone made
directly from matte. The eastern
smelters treat mainly material from
foreign sources. and rather than at
tempt to distribute their blister cop
per production according to origin,
ii has been considered safer to reckon
the copper content of the ore and
matte which they received from do
nestle sources, the major portion of
this material being matte, a smelter
product which is already nigh in cop
per. The total of the copper thus
reckoned is less than per cent of
the whole production. Thus the sta
tistics for 907 have been computed
on more uniform basis than ever
before by ourselves or any other sta
tisticians
Although the effort has been to
conform to the above basis in previ-
ous years, il has been impossible to
avoid the incorporation of some re-
ports submitted on the basis of re-
fined copper. which have introduced
certain confusion as TO time. Blister
copper from the west is in transit
and process of refining for an av-
erage of 60 days after shipment from
the works of origin. Consequently.
the statistics of the production of re-
fined copper and of blister copper are
for different periods of time. Sta
tistics of the production of refined
copper snow the metal made ready
in final marketable form. but such
statistics for any calendar year rep
resent the metal shipped from the
western smelters during the year
ending October 81. or even earlier
The statistics of blister copper pro-
duction are therefore more nearly
representative of the production of
the mines: in fact. as near, we think
as it is possible to go. Moreover,
blister copper production is there
fore shipped from one smelter to an
other; its destination is invariably
to refiner; consequently statistics
computed on this basis eliminate dan
ger of duplication about as far as is
possible, but not entirely, inasmuch
as certain refiners work up their by

TAKE RAILS
ILLINOIS CENTRAL BUYS
S1,426,0OO WORTH-SIG-
NALIZES RETURN OF
CONFIDENCE.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. June G.
Tangible evidence of generous pro-
portions that prosperity is returning
is given in the fact that the Illinois
Central Railroad Co., in connection
with the opening yesterday of its new
line between Chicago. Birmingham
and Atlanta, has placed a contract
for 1900 tons of steel rails, to cost
$1.456,000.
The contract goes to the Tennessee
Iron and Coal Co. and is the largest
order since the financial depression
set in. Only one contract, that of
the Pennsylvania. takes rank with
it, The official announcement that
the Illinois Central has decided to
ignore what remains of the financial
depression is likely to set the pace
for other large systems which have
been Withholding similar orders until
conditions are fully normal. This
contract will enable the steel mills
here to open additional plants and
give immediate work to more than
1000 skilled men who have been idle
for some time. In an indirect way
it will start the wave of prosperity
over the entire south. putting large
amount of money into immediate
circulation and stimulating all sorts
of business.
The new rails are to be heavier
than any the Illinois Central has
hitherto ordered. They will weigh
80 pounds to the yard. whereas the
heaviest rail now used in the system
weighs So pounds.

PRODUCTION OF COPPER IN 1907


(a) Includes exports of ore and
matte and copper produced by lead
desilyerizers.
The distribution of production ac-
cording to states is made from the
above table; all of the smelters re-
port the origin of most of the ore
and matte which they converted into
blister copper. In the case of matte
purchased from other smelters. the
latter have reported the origin of the
ore which they turned into matte
In general the reports of matte ship
ped and matte received have agreed
very we'll similarly as to ore receiv-
ed and matte shipped but in some
cases there are discrepancies, which
are eXplainable, of course, by addi-
tions to. or drafts from. stock on
hand. This shows why il is impos-
sible to carry statistics of production
clear back to the mines themselves.
On the other hand. reports from the
mines are of comparatively little
value. because they seldom know how
much of the metal is extracted from
their ore, and often do not know how
much metal their ore contains. The
statistics based on the blister copper
production are most representative
of the production of the mines in the
aggregate. but the ALLEGATION of the

copper content appears a second time

quantities of scrap metal, which ap-
pears in their statistics. As these
items are deducted from their
statistics for 1907 we believe there
is but little, If any overestimate on
these accounts.
On the other hand, il is to be remark
ed that all the copper in blister does
not appear finally as refined metal, a
portion of it very small. however,

production in states which have only
one or two smelters each.
