for the calendar year 1912. were A. 4S5

While many railways sell or turn in their
brass and copper scrap to dealers In part

received show that the railways utilized

1900 tons OF brass, in addition to 1857
tons of copper. and 1913 tons OF copper

The production of copper from Sec

all sources, or 22.3 per cent OF the pri
mary copper smelted from domestic ores.

ARGUMENT is MADE
in KING PARTITION

Suit for partition of several mining
claims in the Ulntah district owned by
the Silver King Consolidated Mining COM

company as tenants in common was ar
gued In the federal court yesterday morn
Ing by e. B. Critchlow, on behalf OF the
Consolidated company. and Judge W. II
Dickson, on behalf of the Coalition COM
pany The claims In question are the
HesuVius, Andes, Delaware and Ladies'
Drum,
It was claimed on behalf OF the Con-
solidated company that IT had expended q
large amount Of money in the Andes
Claim whereby that claim had been en-
HANGED In value TO the extent OF S25, 900
or 100000, On behalf of the Coalition
company 1t was contended that this
work had deprecated the value OF the
claim. From the testimony taken before
the examiner It appeared that before the
work done in the Andes by the Consoli-
dated company extensive ore bodies had
been developed within a short distance
of the east and west lines of the Andes.
as we'll as Immediately south of 1t, which
gave to the claim as contended by the
Coalition company, before any work had
been done therein, large speculative
value. 1t appeared from the evidence,
also. that the Consolidated company's
work in the Andes has been carried on
for more than four and one half years at
an expenditure Of about s177. 900, and
that all OF the ore found In and taken
from the claim amounted to less than
$4,000, and that there is not now any
ore there that would pay to mine.

I see that the Giroux, Butte & Ely

1 think It Is a good Idea consolI-
dating these properties and reorgan-
izing a new company, to give the

velop the Alpha and construct their

OF high grade. ranging above SO per cent
pure and equal In practically every re-

mestic spelter prices were too high dur
Ing most Of 1912 to permit the profitable
export of zinc dross. so that the exports
declined from 4246 tons In 1911 TO 2Qo

The value given is arbitrary and Is based
on the average yearly price for Cookson's s

Market" No antimony ores OF domestic
origin were smelted in 1912, but the total
for the year includes 1876 tons Of anti

Of such imports, The second recoveries
OF antimony were double those OF the
