GREENE GoLD-slLvER

Boston--When Col. William C. Greene sold out his interest in the Greene Consolidated Copper Co, he left for Mexico, but there remained behind him the Greene Consolidated Gold Go. and the Greene Gold-SilveI Co, both of which he organized, but neither of which possessed any val uable assets.
 The Greene Gold Development Co was formed for the purpose of saving something from the wreck of the Greene Consolidated Gold Co. but in this it has been unsuccessful. En- gineers were sent to the property in which Col. Greene had reported the existence of extraordinary gold values, but they found the property almost barren of gold"
 After spending few thousand dol lars in endeavoring to recover some thing, the Development Co. has rec. commended to stockholders that the entire venture be dropped.
 Dividends were paid to stockhold- CTS of both of the minor Greene con- panies, but as has been proven from the official records of each, they were not driven from mining opera tions but rather from sales of stock

 Those old. pleasant. innocent frauds of the circus are not practiced now the imposing five barred gates that as the horse approached them were slop- ed into insignificant wattles and the rings through which the siguorina pur- rsrted to leap. but which in reality ~ere insinuated over her by compliant sttendants. And then there was that venerable jockey performances. the cul- imitation of which was q leap from the ring to a standing position. albeit at an angle of thirty degrees. on the horses back. In the old circuses 1t was the custom of the horseman to miss the crowning jump two or three times in order that a fiercer flame of interest might be kindled in the audi ence. After two failures the band would stop taiways the presage of a moment of strain supreme,. the horses head would be loosed. he would be urged to a greater pace. and the feat would gloriousiy succeed Then what a crash of brass and outburst of de- light in the building. involving even the stan and ringmaster in the expres- sion of ecstasy.

 BUTTE, Mont, Sept 12-Accord- Ing to very well informed and relia- bie copper authority the producing interests which were represented at the London conference are reducing their output at a rate of 10000 GOO to 130.000,000 pounds per year. This curtailment In the output of the largest producers in America and Europe and does not include a num- Der of smaller producers, who. it is said, have also curtailed voluntarily. The Anaeonda mines iii Butte have curtailed from 13 to 15es and sev- eral independent producers have been shut off entirely. so that at present the total production of the district is between 23.oOo,0O0 and 24.Ooo, 900 pounds monthly. at which rate it will be maintained indefinitely. Un- less the demand for copper increases materially. the output will not be increased at all.
 Although it is denied that there has been an agreement among the producers, it Is admitted 10 be a set. tied policy of the Aanaconda com pany to keeps its production hereaf. ter below 275.O00.e00 pounds a year, unless. as stated. there is a much greater demand for the metal than there is nov. It is also asserted that there is no intention on the part Of the producers to force prices of the metal up. as it is recognized that the low price of copper has been responsible for the stimulated con sumption. However, it is regarded that an increase of two cents a pound would be considered all around as reasonable and that ii would have no effect on consumption. It is Of ficially stated that the Anaconda and Amalgamated interests have no cop. per stored anywhere. and that their stock has peen entirely disposed Of.
 Forced curtaiiment
 In addition to the voluntary cur. tailment on the part of the Anaconda and allied companies, there have been several instances of forced cur tailments of importance. The litiga. ton started by the Anaconda against the Bu;te-Ballaklava company cut of. by injunction. nearly 100000 pounds per month. The AEacond.

 Both the Ticon and Butte-Bala- klaya had been shipping to the East Butte smelter. and the injunctions are also seriously felt by the latter, which was making a good profit on it's high grade custom ore. There has been much feeling and criticism over the suits against the small in dependent companies. it being con tended that the actions will be a ia tai blow to independent operation in Butte and will discourage independent capital from coming into the dis , trict

 While the policy of restricted pro- duction Is to be in effect immedi. ately, the AEaconda company is car rying on extensive development work and its mines are in condition to re. spond immediately to a better de mand for copper. The company could immediately run it's production up to 2s,o00,0o0 to 30,00o, LOGO pounds a month. The smelter capacity is being increased by enlarging the fur. mace capacity at Great Falls. This is being done by coupling up the furnaces, as was done at the washoe shelter. New reverbatories are also being installed. and when the o:iang- es are completed the capacity of the plant will hove been increased about one-third. Changes in fuel are also being made in order to derive heat direct from coal. instead of from the gas as at present
 {, Notwithstanding the curtailment of production there has been very lit- tlc reduction in the quantity of ore mined. The reduction in the copper output comes through d lower grade of ore that Is being sent to the smelters from the Anaconda mines.

the Anaconda cost has been as low as S11 cents per pound. and that the average can easily be maintined at 3 cents per pound. With the com pletion of the electric installation and other economies that are being intro duced at the mines and smelters the cost of Anaconda copper will be still further reduced.
 eutte-eaiakiava.
 The Butte-Baiaklava company has not ceased work, due to the injunc- ton proceedings of the Anaconda company. although mining has been stopped on the vein in dispute. There are three other good veins in the property and one of them. known as No. {, has been partly developed and is opening well on the 300. TOO and HOO foot levels where the work at present is being done. Small shipments, to- the amount of one car, or about 65 tons, are being made daily to the East Butte shelter. IL is expected that this shipment will soon be increased as the vein is now being opened.
 The company is at present in the hands of some very high class men who satified themselves that the An aconda claim was unfounded and went on with the mining. They an- nounce their intention to fight the case through the courts.
 North Butte.
 Reports from the North Butte mine are to the effect that the property is gradually improving, but very slowly Ore is being mined in more places than ever before, but it is of a low grade. The production hos been cut to about 100000 pounds month, which is about half what the North Butte produced during its good days.
 Butte ( Superior.
 As predicted by those conversant with the Butte & Superior mine and management, the refinancing plan, over which there was so much noise, appears to have failed. There is no explanation for the failure but 1t is intimated that there is not likely to be any readjustment now until the annual meeting of stock holders four months hence. It is probable that the Clark interests will then make another effort to get con- trol of the property. The accident at the mine by which the hoisting engine was wrecked, further adds to the troubles of the company.

 It is announced that the buildings in the lime quarry of the East Butte Copper company. which were de- stroyed by fire. will be rebuilt at once and the damaged machinery re- placed The East Butte coampany is now the only independent copper pro ducer in the Butte district and has the only working mine that is not shipping to the Washoe smelter of the Anaconda company.
 The East Butte is mining its nor nal amount of ore and is running it's smelter with that output, some cop per ore from the Snowstorm mine and the output of the Heating mine at Radersberg. The East Butte mines are in good condition but op- erations are confined at present to inc piffsmont mine

REPAIRS TO WHARF.
Changes Being Made in the Pier at
Fort Hunt, Va.

Under the direction of the United
States engineer office at this city the
outer end of the old wharf at Fort
Hunt, Va, has been removed and it is
stated it is the intention of the govern
ment officials to pull the remaining
piles of the old pier during the summer.
The building of the new pier at Fort
Hunt, about two years ago. caused the
abandonment Of the old pier. which was
one of the longest on the river and
which was built when Fort Hunt was
first laid out, about ten years ago. Soon
after it was abandoned the planking
and many Of the old timbers were re-
moved, but the old piles were left. AS
the pier head projected well out into
the channel, and was not always
marked by a light at night, it was
considered dangerous and caused COM
plant from Potomac navigators. To
remove this cause of complaint the
engineer office had the piles in deep
water removed, the work being done
by the pile-drivns machine owned by
the engineer Office.
