Market advice falls short that Ices
not at this time reiterate hat there
is much opportunity for good action
in all of the issues of companies Wi
properties in the known mineral
zone. These stocks are going to do
things within the next few months.
A line on the activity of the big
Elys in the New York market is
given by the Ready Reference re-
port of Trippe. Thompson 4 Co. for
the week which ended on the 9th.
This report shows that 41,300 shares
of GfrouX changed hands in that
week at from 1928 to $S.25: %
600 shares of Cumberland Ely at
from SIS to $3.50; 11,150 shares of
Nevada Con. at from $3.50 to SO.
The present week is expected to
see the Elys work higher. There is
also good outlook for Improvement
throughout the list. Conditions are
better for this than in some time.

make a success of their company and
that they will not stop until they do
so. They have recently acquired
other properties and are going in for
extensive development. This latter

BUTTE ELY.
There have been reports current
during the last several days of a deal
for this property which is of import
ance Whether those negotiating for
the ground represent the Cole-Ryan
interests is not definitely known, but
there is such report. 1t is known
that the Lewisohns were after this
property a short time ago and that
they wanted it badly at that time. 1t
is possible that they have resumed
their efforts to acquire the control.
STEI'TOE SMELLING.
1t is stated AT McGill that progress
is being made in every way as rapid
ly as is desired in operating and con
struction divisions. The output of
copper TINS month will be we'll above
that of December. 1t will readily
clear 3,000,0 900 pounds. The con-
centrator has had better chance, by
reason of the milder weather and
abundance of water. The sixth sec
tion there has been turned over to
the operating department and will
soon be going full swing. The new
reverberatory furnace is coming
along in good shape. Considerable
steel was received for it during the
week. The blast furnace stack is
near, completion and will be ready for
use by the time it is wanted. Hoods
have been placed over two of the con-
verters and the third is now being
equipped. Placing of these has much
improved working conditions on the
converter floor. Steel is expected at
any time. now for the extensions to
be made at leach end of the building
for the increase of its equipment.
Two converter shells We're received
during the week. At the concen-
traitor steel erection is going ahead
on the fourth unit. Cement work
has been delayed some by lack of
materials, delayed in transit. Three
cars of cement are close at hand,
however, and the situation will he

NEVADA CONSOLIDATED.
Copper Flat is now sending around
80 cars of ore a day to the concen-
traitor. This amount has kept its Sec

With the starting of the sixth Sec

and it is expected that he present
week will witness increase. The pit
is in fine shape and ready. for call
to any extent that may be made.
Prospecting on the ground south of
the Flat is continuing steadily, the
keystone drills continuing their
work without interruption. Since tie
campaign commenced with these drill
last summer, about 20 holes have
been put down, with depth for each
of more than 400 feet. In every
one of the holes the ore has been
found and the extension of the Cop

CUMBERLAND ELY.
Veteran mine is shipping around
20 cars of ore daily. The output is
keeping its section at the concen-
traitor going steadily and its copper
production this month should be the
best it has had. On the Puritan
group of claims of the company dis
covery is reported of ore at depth of
80 feet in an old shaft which was
| recently lowered from depth of 10
feet. A Keystone drill hole put down
alongside the shaft has the ore to
depth of 155 feet. Further pros
pecting will follow on the property
and the indications are favorable for
the development of a large body of
ore which can be mined by steam
shovel. The single drill hole may
of course be in a narrow streak of
ore, but If it is the general rule that
has been found to prevail in the
district will be upset. The Puritan
group is practically surrounded by
the Monarch Fraction and the Clip

The underground work at this, prop
erty is continuing with highly salts
factory results attendant. The ore
in which the drifts are headed looks
good and the surrounding conditions
are of the most encouraging charac-

has occaSioned some curtailment of
work there until the difficulty can
be remedied, steps to which end are
being taken.
BOSTON ELY.
At this property they are continu-
ing with the sinking in the shaft
with as much speed as possible. A
machine drill is employed and good
results being secured. The formation
they are now in is giving added en-
encouragement to confident eXpecta-

which they are making they will get
their big ore body. a continuation of
that of the Veteran mine. Regard

The principal developments of last
week have been in the news from
outside, in Importance outranking
anything that has been had since the
announcement of decision of the Gug-
genheim interests to take hold here,
open their mines and build the enOr-
nous reduction works which will this
month produce upwards of 1900, 0UO
pounds of copper and which will ulti-
mately have capacity of several times
that output.
NEW SHELTER AND RAILROAD.
The news from the outside leaves
no room for doubt among those who
are informed as TO recent develop
ents in the copper mining II
smelling world but that Ely district
is to have another smelter, a plant
controlled in all probability by the
new International Smelling Co. Also
the district will have a new railroad.
reaching uoldfield and a vast area
of other mineralized country from
which it will bring custom ores, as
well as put the camp IN direct touch
with trade and agricultural centers
both east and west, from which it
can draw supplies much more quickly
and cheaply than it has been able to
do in the past, a fact that will not
only be of large aid in facilitating in
dustrial operations here but which
will also aid in cutting production
costs to a still lower figure, beside
bringing about much better and
cheaper living conditions for the peo-
pie of the district.
ALL TO THE GOOD OF DISTRICT.
Sin connection with these new en-
terprises there is a great deal that
has not yet been given to the pub
lie and that cannot at this time be
disclosed without the violation of
condolences. 1t can be said, however.
that the, developments of the last
week have all been for the good of
the camp; tina. ley great
things for it in increased industrial
and commercial activity and that
they will unquestionably bring about
an era of higher prosperity within the
next several months than n camp,
not excepting Goldfield and Tonopah,

state. Also they mean that Ely dis
trict will be put to the front in rapid
time as the premier copper camp of
the country. 1t has the ore to make
III such. Only the reduction facili-
ties are necessary to brings the re-
suit.
THE GIROUX.
In acquiring the GirouX control,
the. Cole-Ryan interests, which
means a broad ~afiliation of great
wealth and ability, have obtained one
of, the greatest copper mines in the
world, The development work that
has been done leaves no room for
doubt of this. This development is
extensive beyond the realization of
more than a few people. If anything.
the mine may be said to be override
veloped, a fault, however, that has
advantages far outweighing tempo
rary disadvantages which may be at
t&adaht. Giroux ore is in place and
III is high grade. Also there is
Of the mine, in all the criticism that
has been made in the past, there has
never been question. OF big and rich
mines, which have paid enormous
dividends, the .CoIe-RNan interests
have put several to the front in the
past. But they never took hold of
asproperty that had as much to Show
or gave as much promise at the out
set as does the Giroux. 1t is a prop

NO MONETARY
LEGISLATION:
Decided Nothing Will be Done
on That or Postal Savings
Banks L

Washington. Nov. 27-Conferences
at the white house have pretty defin-
itely developed two facts in connection
with the legislative program of the
administration at tine coming session
of congress.
The first of these facts is that there
is no probability of monetary COM
mission report being presented or con.
sidered at this session.
The second is that legislation look.
ing toward the establishment of
system of postal savings banks will
have to wait until the moentary COM
mission report is made and a new
currency law enocted.
Chairman Weeks of Massachusetts
Of the house committee on postoftices
and post roads, Senator Lodge Of
Massachusetts, and the president were
in conference half an hour or more
today.
Representative Weeks on leaving the
white house said it had been practi-
cally determined that the postal saw
ings bank would not be considered at
the coming session. This does not
mean that President Taft will not.
recommend such system of banks in
his message. but that the chances are
that he will agree to postponing the
consideration of this subject until next;
year.
One of the arguments which the
president has used in connection with.
the establishment of the postal saw
ings banks is that the money secured
through these agencies as deposits
could very we'll be used in taking
up the two per cent government bonds
which are drug on the market and
which the president thinks should
never have been issued at such q low
rate of interest. The monetary com.
mission is considering the problem OF
these bonds and 1t may be that they
will join hands with the president in
recommending the postal savings bank
idea as means of disposing Of these
securities.

Such is the Declaration of
Speaker Cannon-In Con-

Kansas City, Nov. 27-"When Sena-

lowing join hands with Mr. Bryan in
making war upon the Republican
members of congress who passed the

Is to fight them just az we fight Mr..

Such was the declaration of Speak
er Cannon. who delivered the princi-
pal address before the Knife and Fork
club here last night. Mr.. Cannon said
Senator Cummfns alone had read him

He defended the rules of the house,
saying they will remain substantially
as they have been and are so long as
there Is congress.
Ever since history began" said the
speaker, '"the man in the minority has
been seeking some device by which
he could overcome the will of the
majority"
Mr.. Cannon asserted that while the
Payne tariff law is not perfect, It is
the best one ever passed under Repub-
lican leadership, that since the en-
actment of the new law, production in
this country and imports from foreign
countries have greatly increased and
day by day. conditions are. improving.
The insurgents and their follow
ers, he said, are seeking to hinder
the progress OF prosperity by .criti-
cism and denunciation and this too
within three. months of the enactment
Of the tariff law. Only such agita-
tion can halt the prospective era Of
prosperity, said the speaker. -.
q Continuing, Mr.. Cannon said:

with us, and, as ours is a government
of the people. the only way to dis.
pose Of him Is to move on. I am per-
fectly willing to trust the verdict of a
prosperous and happy people in the
elections in November, 1910, after the
new tariff law has been in operation
