GENERAL MINING NEWS
COPPER SYNDICATE STILL
 ADVOCATED IN QUARTERS

time a different sort of combination had been held in mind. According to the remarks of Daniel Guggen- helm, it was the intention to effect an agreement between the smelters and the leading consumers which would control the general price of copper Such an agreement even fl permissible under the laws, would have been difficult to enforce: and moreover would have stimulated ex- bFssfve iline production and over production.
 Since January the form of proposed combination has changed During the past week Samuel Untermeyer, of the Guggenhein circle. has adyo- cated a modification of the German type of syndicate to control both the mines production and the sales Of copper This double plan of putting a reasonable limit upon output by fI- ing allotted quotas of production for each of the mines and smelters, and at the same time controlling sales through a responsible, single, central selling agency, follows much after the lines Of organization of the German Potash Syndicate, the Rhein- -W'estphR- Han Coal Syndicate and the newly or ganized Rhe1ntWes pha allan Iron ( Steel Union. In some respects, how ever, Untermeyer's suggestions repre- sent important advances over any thing hitherto adopted in even the most advanced German syndicate practice This is particularly true with reference to the proposed com mission, appointed by the government much like our Interstate Commerce commission, and which would pass on the reasonableness of prices fixed by the syndicate.
 Mir. Untermeyer' suggestions, in brief, call for a combination or syn dicate of the mine owners, with the purpose of limiting the output to sup ply the worlds legitimate copper de- mands and avoiding the present 10 per cent wastsful and harmful over production. Over production is of particular significance when it is re- membered that the average life of our leading copper producers is only soma 35 years; that new productive areas are practically unknown; that We now produce 65 per cent of the worlds copper; and that in our de structive race in over-production. the fruits will only be reaped abroad Mir. Untermeyer's plan then calls for a government commission which would limit the maximum price Of copper, hayng in mind stable values for the copper consumer and no more than a reasonable profit to tue pro ducer. The plan then goes \ step farther in permitting the producers to fix a higher price on export cop per. thus encouraging home consump- ton and our own manufactures.

The plant is running smoothly and during the initial run about twenty five tons per day are being crushed. The ores are free milling and the first cleanup will be male later. In mine work, the old levels are being resumed in the upper drifts where good ore is being taken out.
 After the deeper workings are made available for systematic devel- opment, ore will be taken from these levels.
 A subsidiary company of the Mint recently purchased the McNary group lying to the north and a big strike
 was reported recently in the cid slope above the 100 foot level, which
 runs to $4O per ton in gold. The vein is four feet wide, and the dis covery is occasioning considerable excitement.

It has happened before. and would sooner or later re- act But there is no doubt that the producers of copper are entering on a period of much prosperity

Rumored That Russia Has Joined Germany in An Effort to
 Secure Peace.

London, October 3.--The lapse ol another day leaves the Turco-ltalian war without further development There is no confirmation of the re- ported bombardment of Tripoi, which appears unlikely to nave hap pened as it will yet be several days before the expeditionary force is ready to leave Itanan shores.
 Apparently the Italian government is apprehensive that the Turkish fleet may be able to hamper the purpose of the transports and great precautions are being taken
 It is reported that the munster of marine has resigned on accoun. of fragrant disobedience of his orders to the fleet.
 Meanwhile the pour parlours of the powers continue without intermis- sion.
 It Is said Russia is now support ing Germany in efforts to br1ns about peace.
 A report comes from Agosta That the Turkish transport Derna chang ed her name to Eitel Friederich and flefw the German flag while running the blockade to Tripoli and that her officers were proud of eluding pur- suit. But, it is pointed out in inc report, she might have been cap tured two hund&d miles away from Tripoli had not the Italians waited her arrival at Tripoli and the land ing of arms as pretextn to declare war.

KNOWN DEAD IS
 PLACED AT 40
WORK OF REscuINe BODIES OF AUSTIN FLOOD VICTIMS IS
 PROCEEDING SLOWLY
Many Bodies UnrecognizabIe-Six Hundred Workmen Now Clear
 ing Up the Debris.

Austin. Pa, October 3-With six bodies recovered from the flood wreckage here today, the face of another, and a skull so badly char red that neither the sex nor ap- proximate age of the victim could be dete lmed, the total number of known dead in the catastrophe oi last Saturday now stands at 3S. All but one of the bodies were identl. fled.
 With the almost hourly revision of the list of the missing the re- maining number is approxlmatec only. This is given out officially as about forty and the feeling is ex- pressed tonight that number ol these never will be found. Those not having been consumed in the fire, Il is thought, will have lost any semb- lance to human body before being uncovered.
 All the bodies, as fast as they arc identified. are placed in plain caskets and buried with the states assist ance where needed.
 Although the expected number ot laborers have not come in tIhero were approximately 500 at work clear ing up the wreekage today, and the chaotic appearance of the village Is fast being changed.
 The first business since the de- struction of the village appeared to- day when several storekeepers be. gan to display their wares.

One Thousand Shots Exchanged Soldiers Patrol city-Riotng Follows the Arrival of the
 New Men.

McComb, Miss, october 3-State troops patrolled the streets of tmis unusually quiet little railroad city tonight following pitched battle be- tween 3 trainload of imported strike breakers and citizens and strikers Of McComb city late today
 A special tram on the Illinois Central railroad bearing 450 strike breakers was ridded with bullets and several citizens of this town bear painful and dangerous marks of the thrilling encounter. One of them, E. IF. Mintimery, striker may die.
 Fully 1000 shots were exchanged.
 Before the arrival tonight the arm ed citizens patroled the streets un- der order of Sheriff Holmes of Pike county.
 The citizens of McComo are out spoken in their denunciation of the alleged conduct of the strikebreakers as re ported from Winona, Summit and Durant. At these points, according to telegrams received here early Tn the afternoon the strikebreakers in- suited ladies who were at the ste tions when the special train passed This information served to inflame the citizens of McComb city, where approximately 1900 employees of the Illinois Central shops are on strike. Statements issued by citizens of Me- Comb city contradict the version O, the trouble as given by representa- tives of the railroads.
 After minor cash between the strikers and strikebreakers near the depot, the train pulled down into the yard below the city where soon it was surrounded by armed citizens of McComb city, who claim tonight they went there armed to protect them selves and prevent repetition of the alleged indignities charged against iIhe strikebreakers by towns north or this place.
 The battle opened almost as soon as the crowd came within sight of the train ana was kept up until the train ran onto the main line and with wide open throttle pulled out for New Orleans.
