The location would be a good one,
adapted as it would be not only to

Boston, Feb. 19.-New York wires: In
view of the fact that the mines of the
Butte Coalition company are producing no
copper and no revenue is being derived
therefrom, no action was taken on the
quarterly dividend at Tuesdays meeting
Of the directors. A quarterly dividend of
10 cents share was declared three months
ago In the preceding quarter a quarter
ly dividend of 90 cents a share was de-
clared. After the meeting it was an
noUnced the development work at the
mines was being pushed forward rapidly
as possible. Development work which has
been going on has encountered rich dis
coVeries. 1t is stated that the mine was
never in better shape and is ready for
immediate resumption as soon as word to
start is given. The surplus of the COM
pany is said to be in the neighborhOOd
of 100000. but was not deemed advis-
able to continue the dividends in face
of the fact that the mine is not in oper-
alton.
Boston News Bureau says: Proceeds of
the assessment of 81 a share on Michigan
Mining stock, payable March 10, will be de-
voted to the further development work
on the property and completion of the
new stamp mill.
Houghton, Mich, Feb. 19-Directors of
the Lake Copper company have deter
mined to issue 10000 shares al So per share.
The stock is offered to present sharehOld-
ers in the ratio of l share for every
now held. The stock must be taken by
March 2. There is little question but that
present shareholders will take the stock.
Boston, Feb. 19.-One of five leading
copper interests in the United States says.
1T should be recognized that a perma-
nent improvement in the copper market
in the United States has got to come
about through the financing of new con-
struction enterprises. At the present time
money is usually obtainable, but only on
good collateral 1t is not easy in regard
to financing new enterprises.
Another member of the same firm says:
I figure that consumption of copper in
the United States is less than 30 per cent
of normal at the present time, but Europe
apparently has an Unsuitable demand for
cheap copper, and on the recent decline to
70 cents, both England and Germany have
been big buyers.
MY advices from Germany are that
there is just as much copper going into
consumption there as year ago, when
the price was higher. The foreign con-
sumers strained themselves and cleaned
out stocks to about the same degree that
American consumers are now cleaned out
The enormous shipments of copper to Ger
many the past few months have been dis
tributed among consumers there in the
same manner that copper is ordinarily
distributed here

LAST WEEKS BOOM
AT RAWHiDE CAMP

There is no such thing as retrogTss-
sion in Rawhide, the world-beater. The
record is one of constant progress, and
the last week has been the banner one
in the history of the five-months-oid
camp. 1t has witnessed the arrival in
camp of the first power hoist, which
will permit deep mining, says the Raw
hide News.
1t has heard the announcement that
four other power hoists are being rush
ed to Grutt and Balloon hills. 1t has
heard that on no less than five great
properties three full shifts of miners
are to be employed. their employment
being the foundation of a permanent
payroll. which will spell prosperity for
the entire camp.
1t has witnessed the establishment
of telegraph and telephone commune
cation with the outside world. Rawhide
is now in Geographic and telephone
touch with Reno and San Francisco
and the hurdle of slow communication
at which every camp balks, has beer
cleared.
1t has been a week of many large
and important mining deals of every
description. 1t has been a week OF
new records in banking affairs. 1t has
been a typical Rawhide week, the big
gest the camp has known; but typical
because in its achievements it reflects
the unwavering progress of the camp

DALY-WEST MANAGER
RETURNS FROM THE EAST

Manager Ernest Bamberger of the
Daly-West, Ontario and other Park
City propositions, returned from an
eastern trip Tuesday night, after hav-
ing stopped off in Denver for the an
nual meeting of the Daly-West COM
pany Monday. Mr.. Bamberger states
that the east is still suffering from the
effects of the late unpleasantness, .
and the return to normal conditions is
slower than it was at first anticipated
it would be-
Asked if the Ely Witch proposition
had received attention during his abb
sence, he said that it had not: that
there was nothing new to report con-
corning the company or its affairs at
this time.
Mr. Bdmberger was advised yester-
day that the water in No. shaft at
the Ontario had been lowered eighty
feet below the 1.100-foOt level and the
usual heavy flow was coming through
the drill holes from the side drift on
the 1.500-foot, or drain tunnel level
The sixth hole has not yet been COM
pleted, but drainage is progressing at
a most satisfactory rate.

was to let things go as they looked.
There was som6 semblance of real BUSH

not go much under what they are today.
