MARKET HALTS WITH

tendency today. There was no disposi-

ony snd Sup and Eaostcn- Mohawk and
Copper Range were fraGtionslly stronger
and Hancock was a little weaker. There
was no trend TO the market either way
and We seem to be entering another dull
period which may be broken either by
an advance in the price OF copper or
oy some radical change in the political
situation.

SMALL COPPER STOCK
AT THE REFINERlES

With the reduction in supplies winch
took place in January we understand that
there is now but Twelve days surplus
OF copper metal in tho refnerles on fhe
Atlantic seaDoard and the prediction OF
ono I'm close touch with the copper sit
uation is that this amount In the near
future is likely 10 bo. reduced to not
more than a weeks supply, say Thomp-
son, Towlc & Co.
II is the opinion of ono of the largest
selling agencies that the February Cop

yorablc ono and will show constdera-
bic reduction In stocks February is
usually a. good month In that while ihsro
are but twenty-nine days Of production

This, Of itself. should contribute largely
10 a favorable statement 10 say nothing
Of the reductions which are being made
monthly owing to the large export de-

ANACONDA MINES IN
SHAPE FOR RESULTS
President Thayer Gives Clear
Statement of Conditions at
the Butte Camp.

The commanding position occupied by
tho Anaconda Copper company Is well
illustrated by an interview of President
q. r. Thayer, who has completed A. high
ly satisfa ctory visit TO the mines at
Butte, and who expresses conditions with
his properties In the following terms:
Business at both Butte and Anaconda.
is good: IN fact, considerable improve
ment may be noted. Beth OF these towns

siderable period. The Anaconda mines
are looking particularly well. This does

Mines, Clark properties, Bell and Da-
mond aud the Stewart Is highly satisfac-
tory. Probably the most important show
ing in tin. camp is in the Badger state,
where underground developments have
been very favorable. At the Stewart also
some large and important orc bodies have
been opened.
'In development work numerous. blind
veins have been encountered OH the
surface and which bad never been cor
related. These arc being added TO the
productive lodes. Taken as a whole the
bottom levels OF the mines are showing
we'll. Large quantities OF high grade

the lowest workings, and the indication
FOR the continuance OF The bodies IN
depth is very good
Three shafts are now hosting BY
compressed air generated from electricity

are very encouraging, Although it is
too soon yet to state Just what saving
will be made by this method over the
former method OF holstinE by steam; as
II VIII be necessary to wait until the
complete system is in operation, the re-
suits go far obtained have been entirely
satisfactory and this method Is now be-
ing applied TO other large shafts. The
installation OF electric hauaGo under

shafts have affected a considerable saw
ing in tho cost OF producing copper

Butte mines has not been as good in
years. We arc steadily decreasing costs
owing 10 the various economics which are
being affected, and this result is being
obtained with operations carried on on

MANY MILLS AT WORK !

January with the two biz Tonopah

duced 269,635 ounces OF gold and silver
bullion or a total value of S2lA.0Io, and

it Will reach 5000 tons day about the

IN March and TO about $500 tons per day
