arrest of over 100 miners implicated
in the disturbances at this city and
Extension have been issued.

the st. Francois county lead belt are

members Of the Western Federation
of Miners.

was shot and instantly killed Saturday
night in revolver duel with G. W..
Belcher, an operative Of private de-
tective agency. Belcher was shot in
the left leg. He and man named
Walker Belk are under arrest.
Inland Empire mines to date this
year have disbursed in dividends alone
$2,S63,971, as compared with total net
earnings of $5,3S9,612 in 1912, conclu-
sive evidence that the profits of the
different companies for the current IL
months will be far in excess of the
best previous record, for the mark of
1912, which was the banner period in
the history of the mining industry of
the northwest, will be surpassed by
several hundred thousand dollars, pro-
vided the present rate Of production is
maintained and prevailing prices con-
tinue.
Not only are the companies that APP
peared in the list in 1912 producing a
greater tonnage, due to the installa-
ton of improved machinery, but the
percentage of profit is being increased
in large proportion to the output, the
result of the introduction in the last
few months of new treatment and
value saving methods. Added to this
are the revenues from the Stewart
mine, which recently paid its initial
dividend of $123,836, and has declared
another payable in September.
The total is further swelled by the
resumption of dividend payments by
the CRANKY Smelling company and the
International Coal and Coke company,
the former having paid $450,O00 since
January and the latter 100000, and
both have announced disbursements
early in September, when Granb,
pay $225,000 and the International
$4,000.
Republic Mines corporation, credited
with $4,000 net earnings last year, is
not included among the revenue pro-
ducers SO far in 1913, and United Cop
per, which divided $4,000 among it's
shareholders prior to December 81, is
diverting its earnings to the surplus
fund, while Snowstorm has reduced its
payments from cents to " cents
