EASTERN CAPITALISTS
INSPECT COPPER MINES
Properties at CopperOpoIis Re-
ceive Attention of New York
erS with Means

A party Of New York and Michigan
capitalists, headed by Charles A.
stoneham, president of the brokerage
firm of Charles A. Stoneham and COM
panv of New York, arrived in Los
Angeles Sunday from Copperopolis,
California, where they have been in
specting the holdings of the Ca1abaras
Copper company, of which they are
the principal stockholders. Included in
the party are, besides Mr.. and Mrs.
Stoneham, c. H. Wills of Detroit de-
signer of the Ford automobile and
head of the company manufacturing
those machines; Mr. and Mrs. Z. j.
Berry of Boston; Daniel Crawford, H.
70. Boreth and w. B. Robson, capi-
talists of Detroit, and NJ. A. league,
connected with the Stoneham COM
pany. ...
The party is travelling in the private
car "Signet" over the Southern Paci-
fic route, having visited, besides Cop
peropolis, San Francisco, Colorado
Springs and Los Angeles. They viii
stop at Salt Lake city on their return
home, all being interested in copper
mines in Utah.
The members of the party say in
the Calabaras property they have one
of the richest copper properties in
the United States, and one destined
to put California to the fore as a cop
per producing state. At present the
smelters and converting machinery
are Just being installed, and work Will
be actually started smelling the pro-
duce of the mine within few months.
The company expects to take out
great amount of copper, possibly 25,-
600 tons during the coming year.
In regard to the mine Mr.. league
said yesterday:
THINKS MINE A WHALE
From inspection, believe our prop
erty is soon to be one of the big mines
of the world. 1t is the farthest west
of any of the big mines in this coun-
try and it can be mined and made
ready for the wire and other copper
manufacturers at an extremely low
cost.
"The mine is situated about forty
miles from Stockton, near Angels
camp, and is close to the railroads.
Up until eighteen months ago the
property was not worked. At that
time Mr.. Stoneham secured c ntrol of
it, and he, acting with the other capi-
talists in this party, at once began
the installation of machinery for work.
ing the mine 1t will undoubtedly
prove a big investment for us, as our
has proved to our own sat
isfaction that the mine is of great
value.
Being situated here on the Pacific
coast. where there is a great and in
creasing demand for copper for cleo
trical use, is one of the big advantages
TO the property. Another is the ex-
tremely low. cost of smelling the ore.
Taken altogether, these two features
will make the Calabaras property very
profitable"
The party left last night for Salt
Lake city. While here the mining peo-
pie were guests at the Alexandria.

ticularly the Rogue River valley, but
that the greatest interest is taken by
the people of the Atlantic coast
states. Many are ready to come here
as soon as they hear favorable re-
ports from their own people who
have preceded them. They will not
start out on an uncertainty. AS soon
as some of their people have investi-

their investments are successful then
the people will flock here by the
hundreds. The people of this valley
can do a great work by seeing to 1t
