The order of the federal government
directing owners of tumble down
wharves along the Calais water front,
to either remove these unsightly
structures or repair them, is received
here with satisfaction except, per-
haps, by those Immediately affected
by them. For years the water front
al Calais has been made unsightly by
rotting timbers on what were good
wharves in previous years, and from
which, at every high run of tides, old
logs We're lifted and allowed to float
into the channel of the river to men
ace navigation. There was no par
ticular use for these docks, and, as
large, they were permitted TO remain,
an eyesore to everybody having bust
ness along the water front. Now that
the government is dredging the river,
the powers that be at Washington
are determined that the channel to be
created shall not be filled up by these
old wharf timbers, hence the order to
remove or repair. On the st. Stephen
side of the line there are also num-
Der of these unsighty structures, and
the people over there hope that the
Canadian government, which is act
ing Jointly with the American gov
eminent in dredging the river, will
these wharves also.

So called trust had held more than AZ
per cent of the Michigan stock. but that
enough of this stock had been sold TO
reduce the trusts holdings TO about 33
per cent. This was done: be said. to
prevent any complications under the

NEW YORK, june 19-Had the vari-

tain the price Of copper around IL cents
pound increased dividends by many of
the principal copper companies would
have been in order. but with copper
selling around 10 cents pound pros
poets Of increased disbursements to cop

they were.
Utah Copper is making good show
ing in production, now turning out at
the rate of 100000 pounds a year.
On l5-cent copper it is estimated that
Utah is earning more than 81 share
annually in excess of dividend require
ments not taking into consideration re,
turns from the Nevada Consolidated
company, the majority, of the stock Of
which is owned by Utah. The shares OF
the Utah Copper company have been
somewhat weaker than the general list,
due to the forced selling Of one of the
