Adding this output to the normal returns from it's domestic mines, to- gether with the Miami and the inter- mittent shipments from small opera tors in Sonora, it is plain that the pro- duction of copper from the local works will be a considerable item in the worlds supply. That the Greene Cananea has secured this vast custom business attests with striking clear ness that it's smelting is highly econo- mical and efficient.-Sonora.

New SiIVer-Lead
 District Found.

A new silver-lead district has recent ly been discovered about 30 miles west of Curries on the Nevada Northern Railroad, which gives promise of be- coming 8 heavy producer in the near future. The veins are very wide and average on the surface from POS to 100S in silver and lead values, it is report ed. About 50 locations have been made and large amount of work is being done in the district. The grade of the ore, and the demand for it by the smelters, has caused almost an old-tlme boom, which is attracting the attention of many mining men. The croppings of the main vein extends for more than 5000 feet on the surface, and it is said that most of the ore could be shipped at profit if the snow was of the ground. Sufficient develop ment work has not been done to test the ground at depth, but the opinion of all mining men who have visited the district is that it goes down, and will make permanent camp.
 Arrangements have been made for the building of a ten-stamp mill at Gold Creek which will be in opera tion by the middle of the summer. The milling ores of that district are said to average from POS to 4Os per ton in gold. The work of excavating for the new mill will be commenced next month.-Searchligh Bulletin.

Greene Cananea Shelter.

Whatever the immediate future may hold in store for the Greene-Cananea on its own account, it cannot be denied that its smelling is destined to out rank any other in the southwest as a producer of copper bullion within the next three years. It is too early yet to forecast the extraction from the Miami concentrates, but is safe to aver that It will be noticeable quantity of cop per, and that it will increase in volume aS that concern extends its operations. But greater than the Miami company's shipments are expected to become, will be the tonnage of concentrates from the Ray Consolidated, which will be treated at Cananea. The Greene Cananea has contract with the Ray for period of four years. a contract that was secured in competition with the Douglas and Fl Paso smelters. Work has commenced on an 5000 ton concentration at the Ray, and there is every prospect that the output from it's concentrates will be between 75, GOO, 900 and OO,OO0,OOO pounds of copper an- nually. Its proved ore is expected to be increased to 100000, 900 tons by the exploratory work now under way. Its ore averages 2l8 per cent copper, and at least 30 pounds will be recovered from each ton of ore.

New Iork-SearchIieht
 Comes Into Its Own.

The work of the past thirty days has accomplished much at the New York Searchlight. It will be recalled that the finding of the ore body was an nounced a few weeks ago. Since that time Manager Hurt has put in his time very prohtably in the work of blocking out this ore, and has been rewarded by finding that it's extent far exceeded his fondest dreams. On the 300-foot level the work has shown a vein of a width of twenty-one and a half feet, shot all the way through with beauti- ful copper-stained rock.
 Upon-fnding the ledge in the roof of the west drift, the force was put to work tracing it's upward trend to the east. As the work progressed, the rock looked better and better, until now after having traced the vein distance of over 50 feet, the stope shows all in gray quartz. There has already been opened up a width of over five feet of this stuff, with only one wall in sight. This quartz shows in the roof, sides and floor, aad is very similar in appearance to Bullfrog ore, and pans in the neighborhood of 5OS ton.
 The work in the south crosscut has reached distance of over 15O feet, go- ing at the rate of about five feet day. It is Mir. Hurts opinion that there is another vein to the south of and paral- Tel with the vein that is now beieg op- ened up. In fact, he states that there are croppings of this vein in the low ground just south of the company's workings. Should this vein prove to be as rich or richer than the present one it is not difficult to imagine what it would mean to the New York. Searchlight Mines Co.,, as we'll as to the town of Sesrchlight and the country surrounding.
 Com. J. M. Foote, secretary and treasurer of the company, who is at present visiting the property, is high ly elated over the indications of a bright future for the company. He has every confidence in Manager W. W. Hurt and the latter's ability as a mining man and manager. He says he knows MT. Hurt to be a man of great business ability and that in the management of the property he will use his ability to the best advantage. Com. Foote does not regret the money he has put into the New York-Search- light and feels sure that he will win out, in spite of the prophecy of many that he was putting his money into a sure loser.
 It is the intention of the manage ment to cease work on the stope and to leave the ore where it is until a twenty stamp mill can be installed which will be done immediately. In the meantime the underground force will be kept busy sinking the main shaft, now depth of 32O feet, to the 500-foot level. From the 300-foot level the size of the shaft will be increased some three feet.
 At this point bulkhead will be put in to impound the water made on this level and above. This water will then be hoisted to the surface, as at present, with the big straight line pump. A compressed air sinking pump will be put in to take care of the water below the 30O.-Searchlight Bulletin.

Shakespeare Under Difficulties

From HarperS weekly.
 During the first front scene MT. Mantell, who had a space only about three feet wide in which to move between the drop and the footlights, was almost precipi- tated into the orchestra by persons be- hind the drop who accidentally" stum- bled and fell against him. A single mis- hap may ruin his venture, and 1t meant everything to him to recover a foothold in the capital. While momentarily absent from the scene he had warned the stage hands of serious danger if the persecu- ton was continued: Some one will get badly hurt said'' (so he related the in cidenD "and I meant what I said; my house, though not crowded. was attentive; many writers for the press were in front I was trying to come back When I re- turned to the scene l heard some sneer- ing and laughter in the wings, and pres ently I was aware of some one feeling along the drop to find where was stand ing; . jolt with his shoulder would have toppled me into the orchestra pit I drew my dagger, and as l felt the man come directly behind me I drove 1t backward through the canvas There was a cry and a fall, then some confusion, then si- lence.

COTTON IS QUIET
 AND IRREGULAR Liverpool Featureless and Texas Rain Reports of
 Little Effect

New York March 18.-The cotton. mar ket was quiet today, with fluctuations narrow and irregular and with the close very steady at a net decline of 1 to ( points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance, of 3 points on March, which was influenced by relatively steady cables and good spot sales abroad. but generally 3 to points lower under overnight sell ing orders attributed to disappointment over the showing of the national ginners' report, published late yesterday after noon, and local offerings, which were probably inspired by the appearance Of scattering liquidations and unfavorable reports from the dry goods trade.
 Prices eased off slightly after the open ing, but found good support on scale down and after showing a net loss of about points, rallied in the late trading on buying by spot houses.
 Reports of rain in Texas may have en- couraged part of the early selling, but the western belt forecast suggested clear ing conditions and the trade appeared to feel that the precipitation reported had been too light to be much of a factor. The report that leading western dis tributor of dry goods had cut the price on several lines of cotton fabrics at tracted considerable attention, as the dry goods trade has been complaining that it was impossible to secure profitable prices, but the weeks sales of print cloths at Fall River were larger than recently and some thought that the fur ther advance in the prices of certain goods would encourage buyers to operate with more confidence. Fall River mill curtailment for the week was estimated at 120,0O0 pieces, comparing with 100000 last week.
 Private cables reported quiet and fea- tureless Saturday market in Liverpool and as the cables failed to fully meet the New York decline of yesterday, they sug- gested that the English trade had dis counted a census report at the opening on Monday morning of round 100000 bales. The census report, which Is the last ginning report of the season, will give the total amount of cotton ginned. including linters.
 Receipts at the ports today 7493 bales, against 10,616 last week and 15077 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans 3115 bales, against 5732 last year.

GRAIN STRONG ON
 BAD CROP REPORTS
Corn Supported By Longs, Oats Unchanged, Pro-
 visions Weaken

Chicago, March 1S-Except for a brief dip during the initial trading, wheat to- day ruled strong. The reason lay chiefly in pessimistic crop report from western Kansas by Chicago expert who yester- day sent forward glowing dispatches re- garding the east half of the state. At the close prices were fsc to s4Mbc higher than last night. In corn there was a net gain of AGssc to asc. Oats were un- changed to 1sc up and provisions down 5@7iac to 20c
 Attention to the telegrams concerning the western part of Kansas developed -acutely when 1t was noticed that the ex- pert's employer here were purchasing on d large scale to cover short wheat This decided many other shorts to reduce their commitments and not hold the trades on favoring rains In a good portion of the winter crop belt and because of disap- pointing cables. Besides receipts for tine week primary centers were more lib- eral than for the preceding seven days, and there was no trace left of the alleged improvement in the demand for cash wheat. Such factors, however, were lost sight of in hurry after Kansas took the center of the stage. No setback oc- cured in the rest of the session Steadi. ness prevailed at the close, which was all most the top level reached. May touched as high and low limts-91ssc and 907sc- with last sales ssc up at s1c.
 Corn had special support from leading longs and their followers. A big falling off was shown in the weeks arrivals taking the country as whole. For the May delivery price changes varied from 49stq49Nc to 497sc. with closing figures 49ssG5ss4c, a gain of A@ssc net.
 Cash corn was steady; No. yellow finished at 471a@4Sc.
 Oats displayed a tendency to initiate corn, but commission offerings were freer on every bulge. May ranged from 31A@ s13sc to 311zc, and in the end were shade up at 31%931ac.
 Provisions weakened in view of heavy run of hogs here and west. When the pit was cleared pork had sagged 1711@2Oc and lard and ribs between and 10 cents

STOCK MARKET SHOWS HEAWNESS Market Sags at Opening But Completely Re-
 covers Later

New York, March 1S.--The heaviness which characterized yesterdays late dealings in the stock market made itself manifest again today. The list sagged sharply at the opening, but later made complete recoveries and in many in stances material gains.
 There was especial weakness in Mis- souri Pacific, the stock selling at the lowest price recorded since 1t became known that other influential interests were desirous of acquiring the property. Trading In the first hour was moderate and indicated that the short interest, emboldened by the seeming indifference of those committed tQ the bull side. had renewed operations for the decline. The probability of important developments next week in connection with the anti trusts were another restraining influence.
 The labor situation came in for in- creased attention because Of the acute situation in the local stocks among the express companies.
 The course of the Steel shares was in keeping with the general markets, even though the annual report for 1910, issued overnight, showed earnings of 12A per cent, applicable to the common shares, as against 1019 per cent in the previous year.
 Stocks recovered from their early weak ness In the last hour, when an extensive covering movement combined with what seemed to be excellent buying, worked a complete change throughout the list. Steel Union Pacific and a number of industrials of minor importance made substantial net gains. while Missouri Pa ciic made up all its early decline. the market making a strong and impressive closing. e
 The bank statement was in all respects better than forecasts indicated. Instead of an actual cash loss the banks gained more than $20O0,0oO. while the actual loan increase of less than $2,000.00o0 was some thing of a surprise in view of large divi- dend payments made in the course of the week. Actual cash reserves of the banks are now 27 35 per cent, against 27. .25 per cent In the previous week.

New Orleans>Cotton Market

New Orleans, March 1S.-Cotton futures opened steady at decline of points on reports of rain in the northern countles of Texas, the northern parishes of Louis jana and in scattered sections of Arkan- sas and Oklahoma. At some points pre- cipitations of over an inch was reported which led to the conclusion that the drouth was broken over rather a large area In the early trading these rains held prices down. but bears were not able to widen the initial decline much be- cause of the desire for profits on the part of scalping shorts, who furnished a good demand. At the end of the first hour of business the list was to points under yesterdays close.
 At the lowest of the morning the list was to 9 points under yesterdays close. At this level profit-taking by shorts was heavy and all offerings were absorbed with the result that the market made & small recovery. No great buying power was in evidence at any time, however, as the forecast calling for unsettled weather and local rains nearly everywhere in the cotton country over Sunday effectually did away with all desire on the part of the long side to increase its commit ments. The close was barely steady at a net decline of to points.

 Liverpool sent better cables to which
