Greene Cananea.

During the month OF September
Greene Cananea produced 100000
pounds of copper, 116,3S7 ounces of
silver and G25 ounces Of gold This
copper production compares with g.
$4,000 pounds for August and 1884, 900
FOR July. which indicates that Cananel
is maintaining practically the same
output which il has been making FOR
the year
The figures for the production Of
gold and silver are interesting i'm that
for many months there has been a
steady increase i'm these metals, the
former being the highest monthly pro-
ductiou since 1905. These increased
precious metal contents are due largely
10 the ores which are coming from the
Cananea-Duluth and Sierra dc Cobra
mines
Although Canarea Is essentially
copper property. higher precious metal
contents is q matter OF considerable
Importance 10 the company as in cred
iing these values, the cost of produc-
ing copper per pound is reduced.

UNLISTED STOCKS.

j. a. Mnncar & Co. say today
Quite strong was the market today
at the opening, but early gains We're
wiped out before the close. OF news,
there was little worthy Of mention
The short interest remains heavy and
is strong card to prevent any serious
declines. Copper shares were quite
strong, particularly Amalgamated,
which was taken in large blocks above
$50. In the balance Of the list. there
was little change. Metal quotations
abroad were frmer and some demand
for copper is reported. The porphyry
group showed much activity at higher
prices. Chino crossed $50 and Miami
was above $40. Goldneld was again
subjected to much selling and dropped
as low as S3ia with a recovery to q
fraction above 81. Around $3la the is
sue looks quite attractive, even If the
dividend is halvcd. Tonopah was quite
active around 81 and seems TO be well
taken on an exchange for Belmont.

eoldfeld Consolidated.

The results obtained in September
by the Goldheld Consolidated compa
ny. the preliminary figures Of which
have been made public, are of more
than usual Importance. in that a very
decided reduction was made i'm the to-
tai tons treated. the grade of the ore
and the resulting net profits.
The preliminary figures indicate that
during the month there were treated
26,7G6 tons having a gross value of
s65OO0O, or approximately $2440 with
net profits OF S325.OOO. Should these
figures De confirmed in the final re-
ports the tonnage treated VIII have
shown falling Off OF nearly 1000 tons
and the value of more than 50 per ton
over the previous month.
To any one who has analysed the
Goldneld reports month by month, it
is well known that the tonnage treat
ed has been almost steadily increasing
for some time past and the grade Of
ore decreasing; but it is an eNtraordin-
airy occurrence for the total tons treat
ed and the grade per ton both to de-
Nllllff at i'eASt ~ SUM 81 ii'i N'N -
tent as indicated by the September fig
ures.
Goldneld's dividend requirements of
81 per share call for monthly profits of
approximately 100000. While the
earnings for the month of September
fell below this figure by more than
100000. the total net earnings for the
nine months of 1911 have reached APP
proximatoly $5.SSlO0O or nearly $780,
600 above dividends.

and apparently with confidence. Her
daughter Elaine Is In constant attend
ance upon her. whispering comforting
words when they are most needed and
IN other ways caring for her.
VIII Resume Trial Tomorrow.
The defendant has been given many
liberties and is apparently not closely
guarded. AT recess she strolls aboul
the courtroom, meeting friends ana
chatting pleasantly with them. She
is gradually overcoming the natural
dread of publicity and frequently con
verses with the reporters, who have
been provided with table inside the
bar and close TO the defendants chair.
Shortly after the jury was secured
Judge Flanagan adjourned the court
until tomorrow morning, upon motion
by the prosecution which is awaiting
the arrival of important expert wit
nosScs The jury will be sequestered
until tomorrow morning at o'clock
They win be given exercise twice
daily but otherwise will be closely
confined to the jury quarters in the
county building.
Expect Long Trial.
The indications now point to the fact
that the trial Of Mrs Stannard will be
long drawn out. 1t is known that both
the prosecution and defense have a
large number of witnesses, and IL is |
likely that the testimony will be quite
lengthy. When asked whether the !
sessions would be long or short, Judge |
Flanagan stated Monday that it was
his wish To keep the court engaged as |
as possible.
but we must think of the woman"
said Judge Flanagan. she is under |
nervous strain and we must
not overwork her"
The line of defense has not been
made public and probably will not be
lnown until after the prosecution
ests its case Attorney LeGendre for
he defense admitted that there are /
hroc lines of defense which might be
ollowed, but stated that a decision
, oAld not be reached until later.
Immediately after the jury for the
rial of Mrs. Stannard was secured
lalf of the forty-cight remaining ven
remcn were excused, as it Is not
bought they will be needed.

Near it was a rubber boot, pieces of

Dominic BonazZa, who was camped

Both declared it to be the rifle that
Lcpusha carried. Subsequently Harvey
Hubbard brought the remaining relics
into town, and the fate of Lepusha was
then easily established. He had per-

London, oct. 17--An expedition has
set out from oxford university with it's
objective a cannibal isle i'm the South
seas, where it expects TO spend a year
in studying the habits of the natives
The party Of scientists is headed by
David Jenness, the anthropological
expert Of Balliol college. The explor-
ers will locate on Goodcnough island.
which is situated i'm the extreme
southcastcrly corner Of British New
Guinea. Little is known of the inter-
ior of this island. but 1t has been as
serted that cannibalism is practicod
there on an eXtensize scale.
Occasionally a government official
pays a visit to the isle, but, being un-
willing to provide the natives with a
banquet, wisely confines his investiga-
tions to the coast line. For this rea-
son the interior remains unexplored
one or two attempts have been made
20 map the inland, but the explorers
have never returned.
Goodcnough island, which is of vol
canic formation, is believed to be the
highest island Of it's size i'm the world
It is forty miles long and thirty miles
across, and its highest mountain ex-
tends 5000 feet above sea level.
