ORE BODIES CONTINUE
 IN DEEPEST WORKINGS

The main problem which confront cd the Copper Queen company yes terday m the operation of its mines was the caring for the flow of water ib the Czar shaft. This has always been the wettest of any of the Cop per Queen workings and the water problem has always given trouble af- ter heavy rains. The flood of Friday however has greatly increased the flow of water in the Czar shaft and yesterday it was greater than it has ever been before in the history of the mine. The company was able to hold its owa against the water which was said to be coming in at the rate of 2,000, 900 gallons per hour by working all of the pumps and will be able to keep the water down un- less another heavy rain should occur today. Yesterday three electric pumps were drawing up 900.000 gallons per hour, 5 others were taking care of 900. .050 gallons and the steam pump were doing the rest. The problem locked serious but was readily hariled and work went on just as usual at the shaft.
 One of the most recent develop ments in the Copper Queen mines is on the 1400 level of the Lowell shaft. On this level a drift is mak- ing towards the Sacramento shaft and this drift, l4-3b, Is in fine sul- phide body. Thus far this ore body has ben penetrated 25 feet and is carrying good values. The strikes made on this and lower levels of the mines of the District are considered of much importance now for it is at the lower levels that the main ex- ploration work of all of the three large companies is being chiefly pushed In the C. & A. and s. < F shafts lower levels have been reached than in the Copper Queen

they are. it Is hoped that after they are listed on the Duluth Stock Ex- change there will be difference. Bis bee has too much at stake in these two securities. and the properties are certainly worth more than their pres ent selling prices. Risbee has also a great deal of Warren. and those that will hang on to this stock should make good no'sey. but it may be slow and discouraging, but the outcome will be beneficial to the one that stays with it. The stock is full paid and the capitalization is low. Globe district has brought out two very good proper ties of late that should not be over looked. Cactus and Live Oaks are the stocks referred to. These two stocks are both capitalized low. Live Oaks is now three dollars paid in. and there Is no reason why this stock should not sell for much higher fig ures. as the call has been done away with. and no payments to be made on the property for some time 10 come. The Cactus is full paid and is now selling at s4.75, which is an advance of s1.50 within the past two days. I do not think that anyone vii make mistake in buying either of the four stocks mentioned; on the oth- CT hand, everything points in their Ta. yor for an advance.

CBy Frank J Graf.)


 The copper shares market for the week just closed has been one of much comment, and to the bears a disap- pointment. The advances made in copper stocks apparently have been caused by conservative buyers who aa- ticipate a healthy demand for copper metal before the close of the year. The advance in copper stocks has been confined to specials . such IS North Butte, which sold up to S5s. though very likely from short cover ings. Copper Range sold up to ssS.i1, but no short interest prevails in this this stock. Copper stocks. taken as a whole. are cheap without excep- tions. Bisbee's greatest interest lies in very few stocks, and the past week has shown a healthy demand for Shat tuck, Denn Arizona, Greene Can. and Sup. & Pitts. Shattuck sold as high as s205e, but at the close of Saturday there was considerable stock offered. or rather buyers withdrew their bids, and the stock sold as low as sls.eo on the Boston Exchange, Denn Arizona was quoted at $500. This drew out many orders to sell, which soon caused decline in bid prices. Whether these two stocks are being manipulated is hard to tell, but il

workings by a hundred or two feet.
 At this shift new and larger electric hoist on the winze at the 1900 level has been installed and sinking is to proceed to the 1900 level This work of sinking has not yet commenced but it is expected that 1t will begin within the next two weeks.
 At Sacramento Shaft
 The deepest workings of the C. c at present are in the Sacramento shaft and it is here and at the Lowell where the most important exploration work is being done. Here the 1900 level has been passed and the l6th level is being rapidly approached. When this level Is reached the plan is to drift coward the Lowell while the drifts from the Lowell are to- wards the Sacramento.
 The exploration work was started with the expectation of finding a con- tinuance of the ore bodies at great depth and these expectations are be- ing born out. The ore in the 14-3b drift at the Lowell is such a yer ification, the discovery of a good body on the 1308 level of the Hoat- son in a drift being pushed towards the Briggs shaft is another.
 Here in the and P workings an ore body was recently encountered just of the main drift and this ore body is now being explored. Still further good finds with depth have been made in the Junction shaft of the s and P on both the 1400 and 1500 levels. From this shaft come reports of good ore bodies and re- suits of exploration work which are proving highly satisfactory to the arrangements and also to the other companies indicating that the present exploration for depth is being carried on along exactly the right lines.

New York. Nov 20.-This city is fast
becoming the musical center of the
world. according to those who follow
most closely the developments in this
field of artistic entertainment. They
declare that America is fast taking
away the lead of European countries
so far as interest in this subject is
concerned. Already more money is
expended upon music in New York
than in any other two cities, not ex-
cepting even London, Paris, Vienna
or Berlin, of which the three latter
each has laid claim to being the true
home of musical art. The sum total
of the yearly expenditure for harmony
of a more or less highly developed sort
is estimated to be between $25, 000, 900
and $30,000,000, This includes of course
the two great operate establishments
maintained in rival splendor on which
about half the toral sum is poured out
Then there are the regular symphony
and other series OF concerts and the
recitals by prominent musical artists
which represent an outlay of some ST.
100000 or $8,000,0O0 more. The re-
hldAAuSf VI Tie vast sum PAID out. every
year goes to pay for the private enter
tainments and for the activities of the
rapidly Increasing number Of musical
societies. 1t is In this latter field that
those interested in musical progress
see the suresG indications OF a grow
ing appreciation of music and real
fondness for 1t as distinguished from
the merely fashionable patronage which
sets the tone for the widely famed
operate productions, Most OF the ac-
tivities OF the musical clubs and soci-
ties center around the big hotels and
this development has become so pro-
nounced that in the largest and new
est hotels special provisions have been
made for catering to musical tastes.

about his brother at the farm of
Magnus Anderson. nine miles east of
here, where his brother worked, for
the past three weeks.
He came here from Montana, quiet
ly, and is believed to have accumu-
lated certain evidence that his brother
fellfell victim to the La Porte wo
man. He has been sailor and heard
of his brothers absence only recently
upon communication from his relatives
in Norway. He left here four DAYS

On his return home from sea last

bad gone to La Porte on April 2, 1907,
following correspondence with Mrs.
Guinness, whose advertisements for a
husband he had read in Norwegian
Taper, and had not been heard frou
by relatives since. Tomas had taken
$1,000 with him, sewed in his clothes,
to pay a mortgage on Mrs. Guinness
farm, 1t was learned. In return for
this money Mrs. Guinness was to be-
come his wife.
AS relatives in this country were
rot conversant with Liens dealings
with Mrs. Guinness, his whereabouts
was unknown until his brother return
ed home and unraveled the mystery
by discovering the correspondence.

STORMS AND DISABLED LOCKS
COMBINE TO CUT SHIPMENTS
DOWN FOR THE PRES
EMIT MONTH.

Duluth, Nov. 20.-The snowstorm #
Tuesday coupled with the recent acct
dent to the American locks at the 500,
has had the effect of putting shippers
and vessel men alike in a very uneasy
frame of mind.
"A snowstorm at this time is q
presage of winter" said vessel man
yesterday, "and since the storm died
down it does not appear to me that
conditions warrant very much mo e
good weather for this season, which
is now fast drawing to close. When
we begin to get this kind of weather
we may be pretty sure that it will
not be long before the ore will be-
gin TO freeze. But we would not care
for that so much If it had not been
for the accident at the 500, which
caused an endless amount of delay
for all OF the vessels passing through
the locks. On account of the trouble
at that place there has been a delay
of at least twenty-fo hours for each
ship. The ore movement for the last
month of the season of 1909 is going
to fall far below what we expected,
but fate seems to have combined to
that end, and there is no help for it."
There has been a great demand for
wild ore tonnage all this week, but
few boats have been available, owing
to the fact that many of them were
storm hound and others were delayed
at the 500. Since the American locks
again went into commission Wednes
day night the situation Is fast being
relieved and the blockade will prob
ably be entirely lifted by today. and
with fair weather conditions for the
next two weeks much time will oe
made UP.
