knowledged that the property condi-
IONS today are not as favorable as
believed a few months ago but they
state that this disappointment does NOT
warrant the present low level for the
STOCK. They figure that the 5000 900
tons of ore in sight alone should re-
turn at least 81 a ton which would
represent $6,OOO,OOO or over $50 per
share on the company's 14S.5OO shares.

The directors OF Anaconda Copper
Co. are scheduled to meet TODAY when
II Is understood they will declare the
usual quarterly dividend of so cents Il
share 1t is also understood
that the intention of the management
Is to maintain the dividend at that rate
as a minimum on the increased cap
ltallzation authorized i'm connection
with the merger plans. AS the position
of the copper metal improves to such
an extent as to warrant an advance
In the dividend this will be done but
there Is no indications or any POSSIBLE
lty of the rate being reduced under the
present figure Inasmuch as the Anal
gamated Copper Co. when the exchange
has been made under the merger, will
own 100000 shares of Anaconda it's
income from dividends of 81 per year
on these shares will be $6,15O,O0O. That
will be equal to slightly over four per
cent on the $153,SS7,OOO Amalgamated
| stock outstanding. The Amalgamated
is now paying at the rate of only ?
| per cent per annum so its income
from the Anaconda will be double the
amount of present dividend disburse-
ments. This will enable the Amalga-
mated to increase It's dividend when
ever its directors deem it advisable to
| do so. Experts figure that on 13-cent
| copper the Anaconda will earn &c.
100000 net per year. This would
mean approximately 22s dollars pen
share on the increased capitalization
outstanding which will amount to 4,
10000 shares. In other words the com
pany will earn about 37A share
more than Is being distributed i'm divi-
dends.

Lake has awarded contract for a
steel SHAFT rock house which will be
one of the largest in this district with
a capacity to handle upwards of 1000
tons rock daily. Shipments will con-
tinue at the rate of about 100 tons
daily. Recently shipments have been
of a higher average of rock than in the
past.
PUvate .advices are to the effect that
the No. 2 Adventure lode was cut by
North Lake several days ago by the

the management was not certain of it
until they got down into other forma-
lions by which the No. lode could be
identified.

Calumet, Mich, March 29.-The gem

New York. March 29.-The further
slump i'm the market yesterday has
made the street extremely bearish and
on all sides one hears predictions OF
lower prices. This applies particular
ly to the copper shares. The heavy
eddy started by the break i'm CRANKY
which began last week. and OF course,
these stocks i'm which there has been
the greatest speculation were hit the
hardest. The metal situation is not
good, there is altogether too much sur

EARTHQUAKE SHOCK HERE?

Calumet was shocked last night.
not morally, but physically. At about
S:15 o'clock a distinct tremor OF the
earth was felt throughout this COM
munity. Today it was quite general
ly discussed and the prevailing opinion
seemed to be that it was a slight
earthquake shock. 1t shook some of
the houses in town and ratified dishes
However, it was not so severe as the
shock experienced in Calumet about
five years ago when chimneys fell and
windows all over the district were
smashed. 1t Is said that another slight
shock was felt early this morning.
