SHARP DROP MADE
IN COPPER STOCKS
Over Discounting Of Shortage
in Supply Causes Furry
When Report Is Made.

NEW YORK. Sept. S.-A sharp break
ing public of the copper report this
afternoon, as a result of the shortage
in the copper supply having been mate
rally ovrdiscounted. The bulls had
confidently expected a decrease ap-
proximating 100000 to 100000 pounds.
while the Government report showed the
real decrease to be 1880 ,Ss8 pounds, or.
roughly. 5000, 900 more copper on hand
than had been supposed by the bulls to
be in existence.
Amalgamated Copper. wf1ic hopened
at 7SSs, broke to u" on the publication
of the report, although it subsequently
recovered to 77A. The other copper
made fractional gains after the full
force of the news had carried the
stocks down.
New Haven opened strong at 81, but
dropped to 9O7s. after which President
Elliott announced that, provided the is
sue of the debenture bonds were APP
proved by the public service commits
sion of Massachusetts,, the company
would spend $21, 600 900 in steel cars and
other safety equipment. The stock re-
covered to 91N. later dropping to 91A.
The market was extremely quiet in
the early hours, the only ray of bright.

Texas Company that 1t had declared q

Y Of per cent over the last dividend

A little cheering news VS. received
from Arkansas and the Southwest
early today, when ii was announced
that it was raining over considerable
portions of the cotton belt This was
counteracted, however. by reports from
private Investigators. who declared tina;
the entire crop of Arkansas was prac.
tically ruined.

Examinations Foolish,
Bartlett Declares

Inveighing against the Taft order
which placed United States deputy mar
shals and deputy collectors Of revenue
under the classified service, Congress
man Bartlett Of Georgia. today wrath
fully told the House that the order
should be revoked by legislative action
Mr.. Bartlett's demand caused a lively
partisan debate.
why, they ask these deputy mar
shals all sort of fool questions, ex-
claimed the Georgian. referring to the
examinations. They make them re-
duce a common fraction to a decimal
fraction. They ask them about some
town in Ohio which even /. with all my
experience, never heard of. What's tina:
got to Go with deputy marshais pob?'
Mr.. Bartlett denounced the Taft order
as a scheme to retain Republicans In Of
flee. The Georgia member loudly chal-
lenged accusations that he wanted to
return to the "spoils system"

BACKS BILL TO HALT
SLAUGHTEROF CALVES
Congressman Britten Introduces
Measure He Says Will Cut
High Cost of Living.

Believing the killing of calves con-
tributes to the present high cost of
living, Congressman Fred Britten of
Illinois today introduced a bill to pro-
hibit the slaughter and interstate ship
ment of beef cattle under two years of
age. His bill would make 1t a misde-
meanor for any person, firm Or corpo-
ration Ito offer for sale or ship or de-
liver for shipment, or for any common
carrier to receive for transportation
or transport from one State or Terri
tory to another, any beef cattle de-
signed for food or slaughter under two
years of age
THE price Of meat cannot go up for
ever said Mr., Britten, land some pro-
vision must be made for the continued
supply Of beef. The conservation of
calves is one Of the answers to the
problem. and a law should be passed
prohibiting their destruction.
The number Of calves slaughtered
has increased 100 per cent in the last
ten years In 1911 there were slaughter
ed 100000 calves, weighing $50, 000, 600
pounds. II this bill had been a law at
the time and these calves had been per-
mftted to live two years they would
have produced approximately II, zoe. 000,-
600 pounds Of beef to supply the scarcity
we now feel
When a newborn calf is seen stag
gering on its thin, weak legs in the field
there Is possibility there of 1,4o0
pounds Of good meat. But the calf is
killed and In place OF these ] 400 pounds
of meat two years from that time you
had but few pounds of veal scarcel =
1T for anyone to eat
In the last six years there has been
q decline Of over 80 per cent in the
number Of beef cattle in this country,
while the population and demand has
increased. Argentina and other South
ern countries are now shipping large
quantities of beef into the United
States because they have plenty of
cattle for sale. In these countries the
killing of a cow under seven years of
age is forbidden by law.
something must be done to conserve
our important meat supply. The en-
Urgency is great and the American
public is face to face with a condition
of meat famine that is not merely pro-
ducing prohibitive prices, but which
threatens a lack of meat at almost any
price,

TRADING IS LIVELY
ON LOCAL CHANGE
Market Brisk Despite Absence
of Brokers Who Awaited the
Crop Report.

Trading was comparatively brisk on
the local stock exchange this after
noon. despite the absence of several
brokers who desired to be at their own
offices while the exchange was meeting,
so that they could receive the crop re-
port, which was expected at 1879
o'clock.
Also contrary to the usual situation.
most of the trading was done on the
regular call, and not after its COM
pletion. the only sale being made after
the call had been finished being two
shares of Lanston Monotype, at 81
Only 50 was bid for this stock on the
call, so that a sharp advance was made
to obtain the stock.
Two $500 bonds of Capital Traction
SIS were sold at lOs1s and N.ooo of Pc
tomac Consolidated SIS were sold -
par. Two bonds of the Norfolk and
Washington Steamboat SIS were sold
at los. There was considerable bid
ding tor Capital Traction common, nj
teen shares eventually changing hands
at llCh. len of the pre1errea shares
OF Washington Railway and Electric
sold at 81
Local brokers are frankly worried
over the action OF the Democrauc cdu-
Gus in approving the bill placing
TAX on the sale OF cotton futures when
the seller does not have actual posses
sion of the cotton. They have can
vassed the situation thoroughly since
the caucus and are inclined to believe
the bill will become law, despite the
optimism which seems to prevail on the
New York market, where, it is said con-
fidently, that the bill will be killed,
either in conference or in one of the
houses.
There is considerable dealing in cot
ton in Washington, and the local
brokers say the bill, If it passes, not
only will check this trading, but will
have the effect of making ii dangerous
for a cotton manufacturer to buy a
large supply of cotton. Hitherto many
cotton manufacturers, the brokers say,
have been in the habit Of buying their
stocks for deliveries at various times,
and then selling cotton short, for de-
livery at the same times. Thus IL the
price of cotton went DOWN they made
as much on their short sales as they
lost on their purchases for actual use,
and in this way practically insured
themselves against a drop in price.
o. H. Perry Johnson. vice president
of the Metropolitan National Bank, who
has been away for some weeks on a
vacation, was back on the floor Of the
local exchange today and was warmly
greeted by his fellow-members.

Retail Merchants Consider
Proposition for Raising
Funds for Shoe Factory.

The Retail Merchants Section of
the Chamber of Commerce listened
to an address by Mr.. Normandy of
Norridgewock, a representative of the
Mutual Shoemakers, who is planning
to establish a shoe factory in Wa
terville. He is at the head of sue
cessful factory in Norridgewock, and
wishes to move to a larger field. In
connection with the Wateryille plant,
he will also run plants in Ellsworth
and one other Maine city. The ELS
worth plant has already been arrang-
ed for.
Mr.. Normandy has $4,000 to invest
in the Waterville proposition, which,
by the way, is To be run on the profit
sharing plan, tried for four years with
much success in Norridgewock. This
profit sharing plan means that at the
end of every six months those who
have been purchasing from the com
pany will receive a share in the profits
of the company above certain
amount. This has resulted in pleas
ed customers in the Norridgewoek
venture SO that competition has al
most been eliminated; once GUS
toner always a customer.
The members We're interested in
the plan, and asked many questions.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1913-02-19

Mr.. Normandy wants the people of
Wateryille to raise $4,000 to be in
vested as per cent. preferred stock.
He himself will invest $4,000, to be
common stock; this will not have
the advantage of preferred stock in
that the latter must have it's seven
per cent. dividends before the latter
gets its share.
The project is to be closed within
the next SO days, and action must be
taken at once by Waterville if the
city is to take advantage of this in
dustrial opportunity.
A committee consisting of Pres.
Redington, A. +. Armstrong, DIR. j. f..

was appointed to make arrangements
for mass meeting to be held, next

be put before the people.

can to aid the passage of the bill re-
quiring, standard weight of strawber-

Pres. Stewart of the lower board,
for the committee, stated that a tenn
porary Injunction has been granted by
the Portland courts, restraining the
Forest city from engaging in the coal
or wood business. Until the law court
settles the matter, next June, nothing
can be done by any municipality in
that direction, at least, without fear
of similar injunction. SO the city ia
theirs decided to wait until next June
before acting on the coal and wood
yard proposition. There is a question
of the constitutionality of such q pro-
ceeGing. and until this is cleared up,
it viii not be safe to proceed
As there was no further business,
the meeting then adjourned.
