TY GIVES SOME
COPPER VIEWS

Misha e. Applebaum, president Of
the New York Metal Selling company.
discusses the past years performance
in the copper metal market and the
outlook for the future in the Mining
& Scientific Press as follows:
The year 1907 proved as sensa-
tional in the copper industry as il
aid in the general world of finance.
Against the most aourishing condi
tions existing at the beginning of the
year demoralized state of affairs
prevailed in October and November.
and il WAS not until a week or SO
before the present writing that the
copper market showed a RESUMPTION
.of activity and hopes were felt for
substantial though gradual improve
ment
At the end of 1906 it was the
general opinion that the stocks OF
copper were very small and that
GOOD business would result during at
least the first half of 1907. Copper
continued to advance from the clos
ing price OF "a cents until level
OF about rs for lake and electrolytieI
brands had been established. The
subsequent history of the market for
1909 is a simple one

ed by even the heavy reductione in
Official prices and thus the market de-
clined to % 4 to 22, then to Is, Is.
IL u, and finally sold in October as
low as II cents. Just at the height
of the financial panic a little squirt
occurred in copper and this carried
the price up to ) cents, but with the
approaching holidays. during which
most of the American consumers
closed their mills for week or ten
days for the purpose of taking in
ventory, and their refusal to make |
commitments before money became
easier and a revival of confidence be-
came evident, copper again sagged
down TO - cents. Though the Off
oial quotation was 1924 to - cents
ii was practically impossible 10 OBJ I
tain copper at that price, and some
OF the American consumers having
large orders under 13 cents and be-
Ing unable 10 obtain the metal be-
c2me rather nervous and increased {
their limits, with the result that on
December , the only copper obtain
able was for December and January
delivery at 1875 and 1875 for Feb
ruary Beyond that il was practie-
ally impossible to obtain copper at
around these prices.
"A good MANY criticisms have hean
directed against one of the leading
selling companies for The manner IN
which prices were held and broken.
but it should be remembered that no
one foresaw the panic aud therefore
IL is my opinion that the decline in .
copper has also been one that no
one could forsee. There is also a T
good deal of talk as to the amount

this side. | do not think that in view
OF what has happened in copper it is I
possible for anyone to estimate even
within 25,0o0,000 TO 50.00o.000f
pounds of the actual stocks on hand.

credit are those quoted by the Boston

Tilt SUDDEN DEATH
 or ROBERT $. DUPUY
Was Intended New Company Which Proposes Operations Near Wicken- burg.

Robert Sterling Dupuy well known young man who had spent the past winter in Phoenix, passed away very suddenly Sunday informing at II o'clock near Wickenburg where he had gone in the interest of the Wickenburg Milling & Reduction company of which he was the secretary He was 30 years of age and came to Ari- zona from Philadelphia about year ago. He formed a wide circle of friends here and was a member of the best social circles during his brief res idence.
 He left here about two weeks ago for Wickenburg with Harry Klawans and was in his usual health, though a sufferer for a long time of asthma, which was the direct cause of asthma, mise. He and MT. Klawans were very close friends Some time in the morn ing of the day of his death he was talk en suddenly i'll. and asked for a doctor to be called. Medical efforts were without avail and he rapidly sank into an unconscious state from which he never rallied
 MT. klaWanS remained with him till his death, and yesterday the deceased body was brought to this city where it was prepared for shipment to Phil adelphia where it will be inferred. The remains will be accompanied by MT. Klawans, who goes to settle up some business matters in connection with the company. As MT. Dupuy was one of the moving spirits in this project. his death will delay the consummation of the proposed plans for the erection of a plant on the Hassayampa for a short time.
 Mir. Dupuy's family is prominent in the east his father being a grain broker. He leaves besides his parents. brother and sister. He had planned to have his sister come to Phoenix the coming winter. He was of a genial disposition and his sudden call to the great beyond will be much regretted l here and wherever he was known. The news of his death will prove a great shock to his parents who are now at a summer resort at Chelsea, Atlantic | City.

TEMPE SCHOOL BONDS
 60 10 A TEMPE BANK
The S5o,o00 Issue Taken at an Interest Rate of Five Per Cent.

The board of supervisors yesterday awarded the bond issue of $5O.OOO for r the building of the Tempe High school to the Tempe National bank at a rate of interest of five per cent. No pro- vision had been made as to the rate of interest That was to be left with the bond buyers SD that the bids could differ as to the rate rather than as to premiums.
 There were seven bidders but in the case of two of them there was no cer- tified check as the call for bids re- quired. The next highest bidder was John Nuneen X company of Chicago who fixed the rate at five and d half per cent but offered a premium of $4j5. SeasongOod x Mayer, the vet eran bond buyers put their rate at six per cent but offered a premium of $2640. As the bonds have twenty years to run the lower rate offered by the Tempe National bank wiped out by some thousands of dollars the pre- miums offered by their opponents in the bidding.
 An illustration of the close watch capital throughout the country is keeping of such events as unimpOrtant as the sale of $5O.0OO worth of school bonds. the award had hardly been made before d telegram was received by the board from the Daily Bond buyer of New York wanting to know all about the bids and the award.
 In addition to matters of a routine character before the board there Were applications by County Surveyor Streitz and Leon Jacobs assistant clerk of the board for leaves of ab- sence. Roth expect to spend vacations on the coast. The leaves were grant ed.

vertising fund to give this valley proper publicity, Secretary Cowgirl of
 the board of trade is gathering data of an interesting sort. Tn respect of
 the advertising fun project it is proper to say that the finance com mittee has not yet opened it's for
 mai campaign against the, rural settlers for their respective contri-
 buttons. Nevertheless several of them have come in voluntarily and paid the lOard ten cents an acre for this purpose, or where the acreage cid not total the cost of a year mem bership they joined the board and paid a years dues. In this way quite a number of farmers have re gently joined the board and it is hoped two hundred more will do so in the near future.
 Reverting to the original subject of discussion the acreage in the res ervoir district is about 21O.OOO Its ownership is divided among 15S1 per
 sons of whom 1O4S are residents and
 533 are non-residentS.
 Of the residents, 394 own less than 12O acres, 113 own between 12O anu OUU acres, 10 ONn between DUU and 1000 acres and 10 own over
 1000 acres each. All these non- residents who are for the most part holding their properties for specula- tive purposes, will be asked to help bear the burdens of advertising at Ia proportionate rate, as will be the 1884 residents.
 Of the 104S resident property own CTS Al own less than 120 acres and these are the people who are making homes in the valley and demonstrat- ing the success of intensive farming The remaining BOT resident property owners own in excess of 120 acres. Of the whole number of properties, owned by both residents and non residents, 1135 of the farms contain less than 12O acres and 446 contain more than 120 acres.
 But the last anaiysis is the one that best answers the question Di- Viding 10000 acres by 1881 farms, gives the average size of the valley farm as 132 acres. Everybody will admit that forty acres is twice as much land as one man can care for. hence much larger than the average farmer will need. Dividing the acre age by 40 gives 5250 farms of 40 acres each, from which subtract 15S1 present owners ana the remainder is 3669 farmers the valley needs within the reservoir district right now. It is even more than that, for many of the non-residents who have been counted in are not farming their land. so 4.000 is a fair estimate of the farmers and farmers fam- lies the district still needs on the forty acre basis.
 Just to impress the reader with the conservatism of this statement it is mentioned also that there is quite an acreage under the Tempe canal and in other parts, that is not yet signed to the reservoir district, that is or will be available for cutting up in thethe near future. With developed markets, cheaper freight rates and a perfect system of irrigation it is quite likely that within a few years the average farm will be less than forty acres, for even under present circumstances many families are happy and prosperous on twenty acres and will be more so when con ditions are perfected. There will all ways be some who want the largest possible holdings, but fortunately the government has limited possible hold

ings in the district to 160 acres. But even if the acreage of the large ones is 160, the soil to be cultivated will require the services of several fam lilies. even if it is by lease or wages, for nobody can till 16O acres in this valley alone. It is safe estimate therefore. that the lands within the district can well sustain from four to six thousand more families and the cities will increase in proportion certain influx at an early day of from 15.OOO to 25,OOO of rural popula- ton. to say nothing of health seek CTS and tourists who will doubtless continue to flock here in ever in creasing numbers, and the other thousands that are to develop the mining and other industries of the territory.
