me trading in coppers have
taken on the proportions of a boom
today. There seems to be a decided
scarcity in stocks in the street ana
only a little buying was required
to cause strong advances in prices.
A few of the leaders made remark
able gains; among which North Butte
was the most suspicious. 1t looks
like prices will go somewhat higher
all around. The metal market was
slightly weak, but it is believed that
consumers are showing a better dis
position to come into, the market
and purchase future supplies at the
present prices. The European out
look is especially encouraging. A

uses large amounts of the red metal

crops throughout the country are
reported to be in excellent condi-

Local coppers displayed more

was not a weak spot in the entire
local list. Giroux made a good gain.
Nevada Con. held firm; Inspiration
and Mason Valley remained around
the same figures. Cumberland Ely
scored a small gain and Boston Ely
on the Boston Curb made a gain
of three points on reports from the

STAGE STRUCK DOG.

INDIANAPOLIS, So. : Will
liam Wocher paid $50 for a bull
terrier at a New York kennel several
weeks ago., and last week, while a
dog and poney show was ~parading
the streets, Wocher couldn't keep his
dog at home. He went to the show
grounds several times, but the dog
could hardly be dragged home, so in
fatuated was he with dog show life.
Sunday the show left the city and
Wocher's dog disappeared at the
same time. The kilograms sent to
Kankakee, ILL.,, today brought infor-
nation that Wocher's dog was with
the show, that all attempts to drive
him away failed, but he would be
shipped back to his master.

Richard A. BalIinger, secretary of the
Interior, with the view of bringing
about a compromise, in which event
the suit will be dismissed. Other
wise, 1t Is expected to attack the
constitutionality of the entire recla-
nation service as organized by the
government.
The Importance of the case be-
comes apparent when it is known
that more than $685. 600, 900 has
been expended by the reclamation
service since January 80, 1903, in
irrigation work in the western states
and territories and that in the various
projects are 10000 miles of bitches
carrying water to 100000 acres
of lands, which annually produce
crops valued at more than $780,
000, 900. The government plants are
in Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Mon
tana, California, New Mexico, Arizona
Utah, Nevada, Nebraska, the Dakotas
Kansas and Wyoming.
The case in question began when
the government started a reclama-
ton project in Arizona after the
company had expended considerable
capital on its works. The company
sued, claiming that through its en-
trance to the project the government
has crippled and practically ruined
the private enterprise.
A decision, which has bearing on
the case, prepared by Justice Brewer
and handed down by the supreme
court two years ago, intimates that
the reclamation work is not legal
under the constitution of the United
States. If the Arizona case goes TO
the supreme court that point will
be passed upon.

where it is completely dominated by

swerve uncertainty, as the whims of

TEXAS SLABS At TURF
House Passes a Bill Which
Prohibits Betting on
Horse Races.

Austin, Texas. Feb. 1s.-Members of
the Texas Legislature fell in line with
the solons of other states today and
the house has passed a bill which pro-
hibits betting on horse races. The vote
was 80 to 20 in favor of the measure,
and its terms preclude betting at coun-
ty fairs or any other meeting.
The senate is now to pass upon the
bill. The attitude of that body is not
known, but it is thought that it will
indorse the stand taken by the lower
house.
Manager Matt ]. Winn is optimistic
over the chances of tracks across the
border from here and thinks that a
course now proposed across from e.
Paso will be good money maker. II
the present bill now before the senate
is passed it will mean that the tracks
at Dallas, Houston and Ell Paso will
all have to be shut down. No emerg-
ency clause is attached to the meas
ure, but summer racing is not profit
able game down here and would not
help the treasures of any of the tracks
Just what prompted the sudden pas
sage of the bill is unknown. The meas.
ure was unexpected and comes as 9
blow to the owners of small stable.

had the right stuff in him and put ur
one of the earnest fights that has ever
