All The Speed He Wanted.

Smith, springing into the taxi.
With a lurch the car darted for
ward, and away they went like light
ming through the fog. Crash, They
took off the wheel of a passing
wagon Hi Hi! They missed fiatten-

potently held up their hands as the
taxi dashed up n street and down
another, taking on two
wheels, and threatening every lamp
post with destruction.
At last after half an hours furious
racing, they slowed up in a narrow
thoroughfare, and Smith piked his
head out of the window.
Are We nearly there?" he asked
breathlessly.
The chauffeur turned In his seat
and shouted:
Where did you want to go, sir?"

more idle labor than for probably
seven or eight years. This restrict
ton of output must make itself felt
within less than six months at the
consuming end, the shelves of job
bers and retailers will be cleared,
and within reasonable time the de-
mand will compel the factories to re-
turn to full time, the idle labor will
be reemployed and a period of good
tines will prevail. This inevitable
period, We believe, is now soon to be
discounted in the stock market.
Metal prices reflect from six
months to a year in advance the per
iods of good times" We feel that
one of these periods of good times
is now not over twelve to eighteen
months away, and therefore this Is

Liquidation has been almost con-
slant since November of 1909, ex-
cept for a few short-lived specula-
lions in certain Lake Superior
shares. Prices today are only frac-
tions of what they were, speculation
is nil. the metal is very low and opti-
mism is almost lacking. Transac-
tions are so small that it would APP
pear only odd lots are existent on
the street. Special lines have been
liquidated to such an extent that
those left are so nearly paid for as
to be almost non-speculatiye,
In other words copper shares
probably are more nearly out of the
street than ever before. This con-
dition points absolutely to a period
when ordinarily purchases must be
profitable.

Between the two evils the police
should choose the least. The man
whose exuberance leads him to this
form of indulgence shouio be grant
ed some slight immunity, especially
as the mans money goes directly
into circu. alton in bakeries and
meat shops that must naturally profit
from the system of distributing coin

GOOD TIMES ARE
GETTING NEAR
POINT is REACHED WHEN PUR-
CHASE OF COPPER ISSUES
ARE BOUND TO RESULT GEN
ERALLY GOOD.

One OF the most bullish articles on
the upper issues for many months is
sent to the west by Gay & Sturgis.
There is much in this communication
that is timely, and the following ex-
cerpts will prove interesting:
The time to buy copper shares is
not when the consumers OF the met
al are clamoring for 1t and the pro-
ducers are stimulating an advance in
price whenever possible. This con-
dition brings about an active specu-
lation, during which an exaggerated
idea of values of different mines be-
comes general and thousands of peo-
pie, becoming carried away by their
environment, overstep the rules of
prudence and implicate their credit
beyond a reasonable limit. Many
such periods have been seen in the
last twenty years, during which the
copper industry has grown from n
of comparative Importance to a very
large item in the economic world.
These periods have been preceded by
apathetic copper shares markets like
the one we now have.
The reason for the present stag
nant market for copper shares is
partly found in the general influence
largely political. surrounding all
securities. Other securities, how
ever, are by no means SO Frustrated
and holders of them by no means so
discouraged as copper shares and
their owners. The reason for this is
an overproduction of the metal, caus-
ed both by the overstimulation re-
sulting from the excessively high
prices of 1906 and 1907 and by the
discovery of means for proftably
treating the low grade copper de-
posits commonly called '%'porphy-
ries.'." The overproduction is a real
and tangible fact.
The result of the surrounding con-
<itions and the overproduetion of
copper, together with the painful
fac1 for holders of shares, that dur
ing the last year many of the older
mines have given unmistakable signs
of senile decay, is a market for cop
per shares only nominal in extent;
and prices for shares, while perhaps
in many cases fully consistent with
present values, are ON the whole, very
low in comparison with the extent OF
the industry represented.
An upward stock market move
ment usually starts when industrial
and labor conditions are at their
worst, when mills are shutting down
and labor is being l~iquidated until its
buying power is paralyzed. At the
present moment we are in the midst
of such a period. Mills throughout
the east are working on greatly re-
duced time and many are idle. These
conditions have grown ~aeutely worse
during the last month and there is

BIRTH OF NEW
COPPER FIELDS
ONE LOCATED IN FAR NORTH,
THE OTHER IN DARKEST
AFRICA MAKE INITIAL SHIP
MENTs OF RICH ORE.

The weeks news has brought
wildly to public attention the pio-
neer shipments of exceptionally rich
copper ores from two mining regions
new to the world of active copper
producers. We refer to the wildly
separated fields in subarctic Alaska
and in the tropical forests of the
French Congo in west Africa.
The opening of Alaska's first rail-
road, the Copper River & Northwest.
ern, extending 1877 miles from Cor
dova up the Copper River Canyon to
the Bonanza mines at Kenneeott,
was heralded March IL last. On
April s, the first train load of 100
tons of sacked ore left Kennecott,
reaching the seaport terminus at
Cordova on April s. The ore is re-
ported as crude run-of-mine. said to
contain some 70 per cent copper, and
20 TO 80 ounces of silver per ton.
The first shipments are being made
direct to the smelter at Tacoma,
Wash, without milling. The Alaska
Steamship Co., is placing two special
ly constructed steel steamships o.
the run to Cordova, exclusively to
handle the weekly copper shipments
for the Bonanza mines and mill at
Kennecott.
The first ship load of copper ores
from the West Africa mines at
Midouli in the French Congo, reach
ed the shelters at Antwerp, Belgium,
in early April. These ores mined less
than 200 miles up the Kiulu river
from Loanga seaport, had to be haul
ed cross country 100 miles eastward,
through tropical forests, over a
privately constructed 24-inch narrow
gage railroad, to B~razzaville on the
Congo river; thence reloaded on bar
ges for the 5 b-mile trip across the
Stanley Pools to the Belgian side OF
the river at Kinchasso. From here
the Belgian railway completed the
southwestward 250-mile leg of the
eircuitous 360-mile trip to the Con-
go river seaport of Matadi.
Like the Alaska ores, the French
Congo copper is exceptionally rich.
The ore is a chalcocite running over
so per CEN metallic copper, and re-
ported as averaging so per cent in
ship-load lots.
1t is significant of the Herculean
efforts attending these pioneer strives
in subarctic Alaska and in sub
equatorial Africa hat their labors
were prosecuted without emblazon-
ment in the public prints. The en-
ergy of such empire builders is
worthy of a greater glory than ever
be bestowed by a public commenda-
ton, which is bound to be hone the
less cordial and earnest, though
tardy.-Mining World.
