GUGGENHEIM FORESIGHT.

The Guggenheim group OF mine
owners is largely interested in Utah
Copper, as we'll as in the two Ely en-
terprises already mentioned. The
Guggenheims are also understood to
be large holders of Ray Consolidated
stock. They are thus a strong factor
in the two principal properties OF
the MISUNDERSTANDING cot

directors is announced 1t would not

merger are involved in such dark
ness points to the possibility that
they have some relation to each
other. In other words, the question
arises whether the proposed merger
at Bingham may not also iaclude
the Ohio.
Incidentally. copper circles are dis
cussing the possibility of a closer
alliance between the G~rggenheim
properties at Ely, the Nevada Con-
solidated and Uumberland-E y,
with their mills and smelters. and
the Utah Copper enterprise at Ping
ham. an event which is probably re-
mote though plausible enough, if
such conditions are TO be the order
of the day.
RAY CONS. AFFAIRS.
But of immediate Importance as
news is the announcement of the
Ray Consolidated company, which
has just beer given out at Colorado
Springs. 1T has decided to build a
mill of 5000 ions capacity and a
smelling plant to correspond. In
order to do this the company viii
increase its capital stock from $780,
900 shares to 1000, 900 shares. the
additional stock to be offered pro
rata tt the present stockholders or
otherwise underwritten by banking
interests in the East. At par the adj
ditional stock will bring $4,000, 600
and the company now has ~$1,25O,OO0
in the treasury. A fund of $3,00O,-
900 is to be in hand for the purpose
mentioned. The investment date is
said to be around $2,000,000 at the
property. and a total outlay of
5000, 900 will be made before any
production OF consequence is under
taken. The increase of the capital
| stock will be settled at. special
meeting of the stockholders to be
held at Portland, Me-, within a few
! weeks.
When the regular meeting of stock
holders was held last January it was
decided to erect a mill with a daily
capacity of 1000 tons. but ore dew
| elopments since then have been so
satisfactory that it was decided 10
construct a mill with a capacity of
5000 tons beside the smelter. The
| July report from the mines shows
that $4,000, 900 tons of ore have
been developed, with indications of
an immense tonnage yet to come.
The ore samples run 2.41 per cent
copper.

BILLIARDS TO
 BUILD ADDITION
Important Adjunct to Rap idly Growing Plant Need 200 Skilled Mechanics.

The Bullard Machine Tool Go. is go- ing to build another big addition to its plant in Broad street. The new structure will be different from the other buildings of the big plant as It will be of reinforced concrete similar to the handsome factory buildings which Harvey Hubbel has erected in the West End. The structure will be 14Ox50 feet and 32 feet high. The cost will be in the neighborhood of 10000. The contract for the steel work has been let to the Berlin Construction Co.,, and the concrete work to the Con- crete Block & Construction Co. The construction work will be under the direct supervision of H. c. Bullard. A 15 ton travelling crane is to be installed in the new building.
 t When completed the building will be used as a receiving and clearing room department for all of the castings manufactured by the concern and will greatly relieve the present erecting floor which is totally inadequate for the volume of business it is compelled to look after. The change will natural- ly result in a greatly increased pro- ductive capacity for the plant as the new building and the main machine shop will be connected with an indus trial railway. The contractors expect to have the new structure finished by Dec. 1.
 Never in the history of the company has the outlook been so bright. At the present time it's force of hands as well as it's equipment is overtaxed and the scompany is; in the market for skilled help. It can use 200 machinists and it is making every effort to find me- chanics that will fill the bill like most of the other industries employing skill ed help of this class it fees keenly the acuteness Of the labor situation. but hopes to be able to attract to it's works sufficient mechanics to enable it to fill it's rapidly increasing stock of orders, all of which are of an extreme ly desirable nature

Peary Invited to
 Lecture Before Royal
 Geographical Society

London, Sept. 7.-The4 discovery of the North Pole by Commander Robert Edwin Peary is accepted by the Roy al Geographical Society without ques- tion, perhaps the highest honor that can be paid scientist and explorer: The Royal Geographical Society of London is regarded as the leading sci entific organization in the world.
 Dr. John Scott Kettle, secretary Of the society to-day cabled to Comman- der Peary, asking him to lecture be- fore the society.
 No explorer is ever asked to appear before this society as long as there is the slightest doubt as to the au- thenticity of his claims, and to be so invited is regarded as the highest honor in the scientific world.
 Though pr. Cook put forward his claims to a similar feat a week ago, no such invitation has been extended to him.

U. 5. INSPECTORS
 SEIZE WHISKEY

It is understood that inspectors for the United States Government are in Connecticut inspecting whiskey. Two inspectors have recently been through this city. The net result of their work. it is said. is the discovery that a num- Der ofF saloons were selling bonded goods which are guaranteed by the government 100 proof, and which were but 94 proof. Such adulteration may be punished by fine of $50, imprison- ment or both. Samples of the sus- pected goods were taken.
 In the office of the Collector of In- ternal Revenue, this city, it was said this morning that the office had noth- ing to say upon the subject of whis- key inspection, or relative to the prob able arrest of those found selling whis- key below proof.
