Fight Over Nevada Copper.

The fight for the control of the Nevada
Consolidated Copper mine is just now
furnishing considerable entertainment to
a large and appreciative Wall street audi
ence. The principals in the contest are
very we'll known personages, and what
they are having to say about one another
contributes hugely to the gayety of an
otherwise dark gray situation.
There was time when James Phil
lips jr., president of the Nevada Con-
solidated. which is the largest and most
valuable of the so-called ''porphyry'
group of low-cost copper producers,
played amicably with the seven Guggen-
helms In their front yard. but now they
are throwing stones at one another with
great viciousness and determination The
Guggenheims, who own "a quarter interest
In Nevada Consolidated and who control
considerable stock besides. undertook to
slip through scheme OF consolidation
with their other properties of the Neva-
da and Utah. which scheme did not meet
with the approval of Mr.. Phillips. The
Guggenheims then committed the tactical
mistake of trying to calmly run over Mr.
Phillips and to ignore his opposition.
without waiting a minute Mr.. Phillips
ran down on the street corner and began
beating a drum and shrilly yelling for the
police. That was nearly two months ago
and he has been keeping up the clamor
ever since without a moments intermis-
sion. So effectively has he been con-

Early Slaughter of Wheat.

The winter wheat has been killed I'M
usually early this year. The burden OF
the bulletins which reach the Wall street
farmers In a perfect flood is that there
will be no wheat raised this year west OF
the Mississippi and that the yield on this
side Of the Father Of Waters will only
be fraction of normal. From all lndi-
cations the population of the nation Will
have to subsist next year on sawdust ana
chinquapins.
The effect of this dreadful impending
calamity is to be an entire suspension OF
railroad tonnage and a stoppage OF most
OF the wheels in the factories. The fright
full outlook is quite alarming to the con-
seriousness OF the bear element In the
stock market, although 1t does not seem
to have produced adequate impression
elsewhere.
The labor strikes are a fitting compan-
ion piece for the crop destruction. They
work very we'll in double harness. al.
| though If things are going to be as PAD
| as advertised workingmen will soon be
striking for wages of any kind instead
of making a big fight for increases in pay
| for work which they don't have.
The truth is the market is really wait
| ing to get better line on crops ana
politics more than anything else. and in
the meantime we are running into an
other season Of cheap money. TINS is
disconcerting feature of the situation,
from a bull standpoint. 1t doesn't look
good to see great piles OF Idle money or
cheap money accommodating In the banks
At the same time it Is factor which
works to the advantage Of speculation.
for it puts capital within reach OF the
speculator.
1t was the vast accumulations OF idle
money that enabled Mr.. Hartman and
his associates to take up the stock mar
ket after the 1907 panic, and for year
and a half conduct the most stupendous
bull campaign in securities the world has
oyar seen Nothing of that kind will be
possible now, but Mr. Hartman will have
his imitators Prices are 80 to 70 per
cent higher than they were when Mr..
Hartman took the market in hand. but
with stocks on per cent basis and
plenty Of money to be had for specula-
ton at per cent the temptation to re-
sumo speculative activity on the bull side
Is very strong.

Waiting on the Public.

Undoubtedly large sums Of money are
now being used to margin purchases for
account of the big interests, and this will
go on until the public takes hold and
helps along another bull campaign. 1t
is altogether likely that the date for the
beginning Of the next upward movement
is only a short way ahead. 1t may be-
gin at any time True, most of the
heavyweights are out of town just now
but they are never beyond the reach of
the telegraph and telephone. In these
latter days Of quick communication.
Paris, London. Palm Beach and Califor-
MIA are only a few minutes from Wall
street.
Buying of stocks for account of i'm
portant interests has been going on
steadily for the last two or three weeks,
and it is going on now on larger scale
than at any time since the break In
prices The wise and experienced. oper-
ators are doing very little trading now
on the short side. They may go in for
scalps, but do not stand committed for a
decline overnight. They have become
convinced that it is not good time to
stand on that side of the market. About
everything that Is unfavorable seems to
have been pretty fully discounted. The
percentage of weak accounts is now
infinitesimal. as compared with what it
was sixty days ago. Weak stocks have
been very thoroughly weeded out and the
market foundation may be described as
strong

AMERICAN WOMAN WINS
FAME AS "a SCULPTOR

The sculptor's art is seldom asso-S
rciated with womankind, that for q
woman to triumph in this field of
sendeavor represents an achievement
or great 4. Significance. Moreover,
when the woman who has triumphed
50 conspicuously is a dainty bit Of.
femininity who has had the courage
to fight battles with want and priva-
ton that might we'll have disheart-
ened even. q sturdy man. the victory
which she has achieved assumes the
character of an event that is worthy
OF being recorded in - form as per-
'manent as the bronze doors that she
Is now making for the memorial
chapel at Annapolis, or her colossal
figure OF '.sVictory," which surmount-.
ed the dome Of Festival hall at the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition.
Miss Evelyn B. Longman was born
near Winchester, Ohio, and was the
youngest of family Of six children.
Here parents were in such straitened
circumstances that even the young
est girl was obliged to leave school
to- earn her own living when she
was less than fourteen years Of age.
For several years she worked as a
clerk. in a. large wholesale house in
Chicago, but even the drudgery of
her humble commercial position did
mot .extinguish the fire of ambition
that was smeuldering in her heart.
While her work in the Chicago
business house was hard, she quick
ly realized that the large city offered
opportunities for, an art education
that she could never have obtained
at home, SO, when her hands and
head were weary with the tasks of
the day, she spent her evenings in
the art school. Moreover, she began
to save the pennies from her modest
salary, until she had accumulated
$265, when she. resigned her position
and went to- study drawing and
painting at Oliver college, Michigan.
Vast as the sum of 1855 had
seemed to her, it gradually melted
away and, in 1899, she returned to
Chicago to work by day and study
by night. For more than two years
she followed this program until, in
1901, finding that she was not MAX
ing satisfactory progress, she made
the hazardous venture of removing
to New York. At that time she had
just $40 in her purse, and not a
friend to whom she could turn for
! help if assistance should prove nee
:essary.
!: AS Miss Longman admits today
she does not know. how she dared
to take such a step. She only re-
members that she had received the
| point of desperation at which she
was ready to risk everything upon
a single throw. Fortunately, she
made friends-friends like Herman
! A. MacNeil and Isidore Konti-who
could help her In her studies, even
If they We're. unable. to put her in
the way of obtaining remunerative
| work. 49,
Each move that she made, how
| ever, was "a step. in the right direc-
ton, for they led her to the studio Of
Daniel c.: French, one Of Americas
most successful sculptors. From that
hour the sky began to- brighten, and
even fame > came; at last, when, a
short time ago, In competition with
the best sculptors in this: country,
Miss Longman: was awarded the
commission for the bronze doors OF
