With a curtailed production
for the week estimated to be
around $500 tons, conditions, so
far as the zinc market was con-
cerned, appeared brighter from
the operators point of view at
the end of the year than has
been noted for some time. While
the stock supply of the district
was not largely affected by the
slump in production in the final
week, the conditions arising out
of the situation was. such as to
cause a strengthening of the To-
cal market. The consensus Of
opinion among operators is that
this weeks offerings, the FIRST Of
1913, will be materially better
than those prevailing for sOme
time. While no change 10 the
range prices of $50 to SIS for
blende was made over last weeF,
the buyers manifested more in-
terest in the market than IN the
previous period. The highest
settling price reported for the
week was $50.
The prices for calanine ores
for the week remained the same
as those of last week. The ma
jOfity of the production was re-
moved for a price which ranged
around $50.
Lead ores In the district re-
NAMED the same as last week.
The range for this ore was $50

ones who made the big develop

Some day, and that day is not
very far of, Joplin will cease to
be the center of the lead and zinc
mining industry. True, no doubt,
that it will be the big town of
the district for several years, but
the ore run will be proved so far
away from Joplin to the west
and southwest that that town
will not be able to say truthfully
that it Is located in the center of
the ore producing area. Devel-
opment work and prospecting
has been and is being carried on
so extensively to the west and
southwest of Joplin that the day
is not far off when all of that
country west of Baxter Springs,
clear to Neoshe river, will be
producing lead and zinc ores.
Drilling which is now going on
has found ore as far west as
Melrose, and rs far south as
Miami. The whole country to
the west, south and southwest of
Baxter Springs seems to be very
heavily mineralized, and even
Joplin operators are getting in
on the groud floor wherever they
can. The ore is even richer
than that found in the locality
close around Joplin and is easier
handled, being of a free nature.
The Kansas Oklahoma ore field
is going to make history soon.

from Mississippi are outside the
Jurisdiction OF your Louisiana

"This feature of the case gave
me a great deal of tronble, and
[ am going to trust to the fair
ness of the people of your State
to see that this man has a fair
and impartial trial, because, as
stated above, many people will
testify that they saw this old
man at church and other public
gatherings, in July, 1912; at the

of other people, travelling about
the country; always in company

so you can see it is a case
that presents two sides beyond
all questions, and I know that
you will do all within your power
to see that equity and justice is
done. Feeling that all questions
of fact are matters that should
be properly left to the court,
and not decided by me, l decided
to take the course that l am now
taking.
II am always ready to honor

Jackson, Miss, June 18.-The
following letter was dictated to
Gov. Hall of Louisiana to-day by
Coy. Brewer and sent to him
witch the formers requisition
for w. G. Walters, duly signed:
dated June, 18, 1913.
Gov. L. E. Hall, Baton Rouge:
my Dear Sir-Am writing to
say that l have concluded to
honor your requisition for W. G.
Walters, and hand you herein
the papers duly honored:
II know you will appreciate
my position in this matter. On
the face of your requisition, which
included copy Of the affidavit, W.
G. Walters was charged with
having kidnapped Dunbar's
child. However, as soon as the
child was carried to Louisiana
in fact, before he arrived there
was notified by wire and letters
from the people from Marion
and Pearl River counties that a
mistake had been made as to the
identity Of the child, and begging
that l not act hastily, and saying
that they would produce proof
that would show exclusively that
3 mistake had been made-so
much so that it would be admit.
ed by even Mr.. Dunbar himself
that is was not Bobbie Dunbar,
but Bruce Anderson.
Having ascertained that the
court would not convene at Ope-
lousas for some time, and know.
ing that no harm could come by
reason of Walters being held in
jail at Columbia (Sheriff Harris
horne of Marion county having
assured me that Walters would
be safely held) and seeing that
toe feeling and popular senti-
ment was running very high, ]
Withheld action in the matter to
give an opportunity for the real
facts to develop.
In honoring this requisition,
] want to call your attention To
the fact that there are many hon
est, conscientious, law abiding
people in his State, who are dis
interested in this matter, witt
no interest to subserve except tt
tell the truth, who are perfectl,
willing to swear, and do swear
that they saw this identical chile
with this defendant long befor'
the disappearance Of Mr.. Dun
bars child.
I notified the attorneys TO
this man that if they attempt Il
release him by habeas corpus,
would Immediately honor tn
requisition.
II contemplate that now, sine
I have honored the requisitior
they will undertake legal step
in the court, but this is the mai
