DAI-bRISIOL MANAGER
DUE HERE NEXT week

George e. Bent, general manager Of
the Day-Bristol Mining company.
has wired from the east that he
will arrive from New York on the
5th proximo. Some Of the Salt Lake
papers spread the report recent
that the Day-Bristol properties had
closed following the recent appoint
ment of a receiver for the Phoebe Pa
cific railroad.
But the report was entirely with
out foundation, In the first place, the
Day y-Bristol is in no way interested
In the Phoebe, Pacific; any further
than it depends upon the latter to
transport its ores from the Day
mine to Pioche. The railroad derives
all its revenue from these shipments
and is being operated by the receiv-
er, H. e. Prudential, just as 1t
was prior to the appointment OF
the receiver.
The Record has been informed that
the shipments from the Day-Bris-
tol have been somewhat larger than
usual this month and as evidence Of
this, the Jack Rabbit train has been
making two trips per day instead OF
one.

The deceased had been working on
some mining claims In the Fairview

Borland had planned to visit the

for granted that perhaps he had been
unavo.dably detained and had not
returned to Fairview. Mr. Peer al
SO recalled that he had not heard
any shols from the direction Of
Porland's camp for several days.
Monday, however, Peer went over
to the Borland camp to Salty him

more he thought about Borland's alb

came with the thought that some-
thing had gone wrong with the old

THE GuGGENHEiMS MAY
pREciPtTATE COPPER WAR

Wpr in the copper trade is on the
point of being declared between the
powerful Guggenheim and Rockefel-
Ter interests, according to advices
from Philadelphia. 1t will be a
fight for business. Controlling i'm
pertant low cost producing proper
tics, such as the Utah Copper and
Nevada Consolidated, the Cuggen-
helm party has tired of the ex-
pertinent of restricting production
to enable high cost producing prop
critics, like those of the Amalga-
mat Copper company, to make a
profit.
This plan of holding down pro
duction to keep up the price OF
copper in the face of adverse condi-
tions in the trade was brought for
ward about a year ago by John D..
Ryan, president of the Aalgamated d
| Copper company. 1t was proposed
as way to defeat the economic
law which was working to drive
law which was working to drive
down the price of copper for which
| the demand had fallen off largely.
| The Ryan plan was to hold the
price of copper betwen12 and l3
cents per pound, at which figures
all the producing companies could
make a profit To accomplish this,
all were to restrict their output
from 10 to Is per cent, and, where
necessary, they would hold copper
produced beyond what the home
and foreign markets would take
| Now the Guggenheim interests
4 with ability to produce copper Al
from 5 to 6 per cent of what i,
costs the Rockefeller interests, has
determined to cut loose from thi'
Ryan arrangement
II What Is believed TO have brough
the matter to the point Of war ii
the copper trade Is the feeling tha
some producers have not p'ayct

estricted to 10 to is per cent. Th

Q six of eight sections. or rs per cen

location work on group of mining
claims located adjacent to the prop
critics OF the Prince Consolidated

proper amount of assessment work
for last year was not performed and
that the claims were therefore op-
