LONG LITIGATION ENDS IN
 RELEASE OF INDIANS

PHOENIX, June 25.-United States District Attorney Alexander filed a mo. tion in the supreme court dismissing the appeal of the government from the decision of the supreme court reversing the district court, which refused to grant habaes corpus to number of Navajo Indians held at hard labor in Fort Huachuca, after arrest on the reservation by soldiers acting through orders of the war department, at the request of the interior department. Chief Justice Kent today issued an or der allowing withdrawal of the notice of appeal. The effect is dimissal of the case and liberation of the Indians.
 About two years ago turbulent Indi- ans on the reservation caused an ap- peal to the war department. Troops captured them, killing two and taking the others to Fort Huachuca Action was begun, it is understood, at the in. stance of the Indian Rights association, for liberation. They were opposed by the government on various theories, that they were prisoners of war and wards of the government, which had a right to do as they saw fit.
 The court held that no state of war existed, and if it did, the custom was not to keep prisoners at hard labor, and that as wards of the government, bureau officials could only exercise au- thority given by congress, and not by rules of their own making.
 Interest is chiefly in its effects as a precedent, limiting department author ity.

DULUTH BROKER IS -----' "s4s-El ENTHUSIASTIC ]. as-~--------
 OF GLOBE
PREDICTS HIGHER COPPER SOON AND COMPLIMENTS LOCAL
 MINING DISTRICT

"By the end of the year this country will see copper selling at between 161a and l71a cents per pound"
 Such was the rather startling state ment made to the Silver Belt yesterday by N. S. Mitchell, one of the most prominent stock brokers of Duluth, who is visiting the western part of the country, on combined business and pleasure trip.
 "This may sound like broad asser- tion,' continued Mir. Mitchell, "but here are some of the facts on which 1 base my judgment:
 "In the first place, conditions are right. The presidential election is a thing of the past and the tariff issue will be over within short time. Crops as rule are good and the country is prosperous.
 "Then the natural demand for cop per is bound to increase, with exten- sive building all over the United States the market for this metal is hound to broaden. Owing to low rices the out put of copper has been allowed to de crease quite little within the past few months and the question of supply and demand will be an important factor.
 "In addition, the stock markets throughout the east will take up the matter of copper stocks in a short time and by working both the metal and the stock market in conjunction, as has been the case in the past, the price of copper is bound to go up.
 "While this is my first visit to Globe, I have been agreeably surprised with what I have found here. not only in the way of mining district but a city as well.
 "I have looked over a number of min ing properties locally and they exceed my expectations. I have always been booster for Globe stocks, but having heen on the ground, l am now prepared to boost harder than ever. I have con fidence enough in local copper stocks to recommend them to any of my GUS tomers.''
 Mr. Mitchell will leave for Los An geles this morning. He will go north later and after having gone as far north as Vancouver, will return to Duluth by way of Salt Lake city.

BRADsTREET OPTIMISTIC

NEW YORK, June 25.-Bradstreet s tomorrow will say: Improvements in weather and crops and further expan- sion in the advancement of industrial operations are noted this week. Retail reports are still irregular, the excessive heat being credited with retarding dis tribution in some sections.
 Jobbing trade reports are slightly better, but by far the best reports as to distributive trade come from whole sale lines.
 The industries led by iron and steel show expansion of operations, larger output and some wage advances. More confidence is expressed than at any preceding time since the depression began.
 The situation in the leather trade is one of great strength, based apparently upon the scarcity of hides.

NEW YORK, June 25.-The action of the stock market was not an illum. mating showing of the financial senti- ment. The reactionary movement of Union Pacific was rather discredited by rumors used to push preferred stock suddenly to no. Publication of the plans of Southern Pacific for a merg- ing and organizing of the Mexican properties aroused suspicion that this might be the matter that had given rise to all surmises coming of the liar riman financial plan.
 Copper industrials were the center of depression and influenced the Lon don markets on increasing rumors that an operator largely concerned in Amer jean coppers was in trouble.

DAILY MARKET LETTER
 AND STOCK QUOTATIONS

BOSTON, June 25.-The copper share market sympathized to great ea. tent with the fluctuations in New York. where, following an early weakness, prices had a good rally at the close. Trading was on very quiet scale; but there was no weakness shown, and absolutely no pressure to sell stocks. Copper Range rallied point on pur- chase of goo shares. North Butte closed strong at 57 bid with no stock offered at less than 6s. The general situation continues to show gradual but steady improvement. Aggressive efforts are being made by large copper interests to secure representation of copper mines in Arizona, now in course of develop. ment.

BY WHEELBARRoW IN CHINA.
Two Passengers Go 20 Miles a Day
for Ten Cents Each.

Probably more freight and more
passengers are transported in China
by the wheelbarrow than by any other
land method. The wheelbarrow used
in China differs from that used in
America in the fact that the wheel is
set in the center and thus supports
practically the entire load. while the
handles are supported in part by a
strap or rope over the shoulders of
the man who operates it.
As result the ccolie in China will
transport nearly half a ton on his
wheel Wheelbarrows are much used
in the country where the roads are
but little developed, and l have heard
that passengers sometimes make the
entire trip from Shanghai to Peking, a
distance of 600 miles, by barrow.
A two-passenger barrow will make
about 20 miles day and the coolie
is content with a pay of about 20 cents
day. or an average of about half a
cent a mile for each passenger.
On the level. well-kept streets of
the foreign quarters of such cities as
Hongkong, Shanghai and Peking the
wheelbarrow coolie will struggle along
with load of six or even eight people.

PREVENTING PAINT TROUBLES

It's easy enough to recognize the
symptoms of poor paint, after it has
been on awhile-after it's inherent
tendency to crack and peel and scale
and blister, etc, has developed into
trouble. You know these paint "dis
eases" usually indicate adulteration
or substitution in the paint materials.
And you know the only remedy is re.
painting.
A little knowledge of paint and
painting requirements, and how to
made sure Of the purity and quality
of materials, would prevent all trou.
Bile, and save the big extra expense OF
re-painting; just as a proper knowl-
edge of simple health-laws, and OBJ
servance of them, prevents sickness.

Scandinavian Dinner Custom

a strange custom obtains in Norway,
Sweden and Denmark. At dinner par.
ties, if the guests are not evenly
matched as regards numbers, it is a
custom for one man to offer his arm
to another if the ladies are not suffi-
ciently numerous, and in this strange
manner the guests go to dinner.
The fashion we are told always ap.
