uTEH COPPER

ID. c. Jac&'irg, general manager Of
the Utah Copper Co, in a recent in
terview, stated that neither himself
nor his associates had ever officially
considered the ACCESSIBILITY of gigan-
tic copper merger such as was planned
some time ago. The companies with
which he is connected are going along
without any associations whatever
other than those absolutely necessary
to the production of copper at the low
est possible figure. and selling it for
the best possible market.
AS for the companies with which he
is connected this will be the program
for the future: He stated that the
Nissen stamps i'm the old Boston Con-
solidated mill are to be removed. and
the same sort of grinding equipment
now being used by the Utah Copper
mill will be installed. Engineer Rog-
ers' report on the respective merits of
the two Garfield mills makes nothing
else logical This report, or enough of
1t. to demonstrate or justify the com
pany's stand. will be given out with

terly report. Machinery for this mill
is cling ordered and work on the
plant should he well under way within

CHINA ABoLIsHEs SLAVERY.
Reform, However, is Not Made Alto

Washington. May 1.-THE Chinese
government by imperial rescript has
abolished slavery throughout the en-
pire and has prohibited henceforth the
purchase and sale of human beings
under any pretext. The reform. how
ever, is not altogether complete. as
by the rescript certain forms of slavery
will still be tolerated. In report made
to the state department IL Is stated
that the retainers of Manchu princes
are not emancipated. but IL is forbid
den to call them slaves. They have
long enjoyed educational and other
privileges. although still bound to their
hereditary masters.
The household slaves of the Manchus
are also refused emancipation. but
their status under the law Is improved.
They are to be regarded as hired SER

unlimited term of years. so that they

Arthur S. Leland 81 Company have
the following from the Lake: 1t may
not generally be known that the Os-
ccola company owns n valuable piece
Of mlneralized territory i'm Keweenaw
county. This land Is located imme-
diately adjoining the old time Bohe-
mia that operated a few years ago,
and the Bohemia's exploratory work
exposed q lode of merit. Nothing has
been done on the property since that
time but IL is believed that the Oaceola
could well afford to expend some mon
cy in an effort to prove up this prop
erty some time in the future. The
land was originally purchased for its
timber values, but the mineral rights
went with the surface rights when the
purchase was made. Some of the men
who worked i'm the old Bohemia say
they are confident that Osceola has a
mine in this comparatively limited
tract
The Osceola company is now paying
dividends at the rate Of $12 per year
and IA earning better than that
amount. The production during this
fiscal year will run pretty close to 80
100000 and will undoubtedly be the
heaviest i'm the history of the mine.
The new No. 4 Kearsarge shaft has
become a prominent producing factor
There have been rumors of several
different sorts in circulation concern
ing The Osccola. One Is that the man
agcment have decided to sink shaft
on the old Osceola to go down on that
property to develop the Kearsargc
lode. The work on the shaft which is
S'Hking for the Laurium company will
have an influence on the Osceola old

Boston.-The market opened fairly
strong this morning but owing to the
holiday abroad, received no help from
the London market. There was very
little interest in the local market and
feeling on the metal continues pessi-
mistic. Lack of news from the new
Lake district accounts for the scat
tered selling and sagging i'm prices in
Lake, Indiana and North Lake. Trad
ing for the most part was professional
and commission house business was

Boston, May 16.-The entirely pro-

well demonstrated today. Routine
news was favorable and several new
interviews from prominent people
were produced. The professional ele-
ment opened prices up and main
tanned them until the last hour when
lack of outside purchasing discouraged
them and heavy closing resulted.
We still think stocks should be bought
on weak spots and that for a time at
least prices will work higher on the
whole.-I: j. Sturgis.
