February Shows Large
Decrease In Visible
Supply of Copper

The Copper Producers report for
February was released yesterday
and showed a decrease in the visible
copper supply in this country of
500, ,134 pounds. This is the first
time in a number of months that
there has been a decrease in the Wis
ible supply of the red metal and is
attributed in part to a big reduction
in output, together with the fact that
there was a materia, increase in the
general deliveries. While the de-
crease in stock was small, it is graft
fying and compares with an increase
during the first month of the year
amounting to 17,SS5,750 pounds.
The decrease in the production is
due to the effects upon mine output
during the severe winter weather, as
we'll as the curtailment of production
that was made in Utah Copper and
Nevada Consolidated during the
strike late in 1912. The refined met
al from these properties for this pc
riod Is just coming onto the mar
kets.
The production during February
amounted to 130,94S,SS1 pounds, as
compared with the record production
in January of 143,497, ,625, de-
crease of 12,530,744 pounds.
Foreign countries purchased more
metal during February than for
number of months previously. The
European buyers are still in the mar
ket and have been the largest buyers
thus far this month

IMPORTANT CHANGES IN SCHEDULE OF NEVADA
NORTHERN TRAINS IN EFFECT BEGINNING TO-DAY.

The change of time on the Nevada
Northern railroad is in effect today,
when trains will be run according to
the new schedule. The change was
made following the presentation of a
petition by men working at McGill,
for local train service that would
better accommodate those who are
employed at McGill but who live in
Ely, East Ely and vicinity. General
Manager Cannon of the Nevada
Northern took the matter under ad-
visement, with the result that a
change was decided upon, which it is
thought will meet the wishes of the
petitioners as well as anything that
can be arranged. incidentally, there
is a change in the main line as we'll

NEGOTIATE LOAN TO PAY
COUNTY CURRENT BILLS

The county commissioners were in
session, Monday, and the first busi-
ness transacted after the reading and
accepting of the minutes of the
preceding meeting was matter
of negotiating a loan with which to
meet current county expenses, pend
ing the next receipt of tax money.
A. B. Witcher representing the Ely
National bank was present with an
offer to loan the county money at the
rate of six per cent, and the PROPOSE
tion looking good to the commission
ers, the offer was accepted and
note issued for $1,000.
After passing on the regular
salary bills for the month, the board
considered the petition signed by
Preston citizens, asking that Albert
w. Gee be appointed constable of that
district. The petition was honored
and Clerk Oldfeld instructed to
notify Mr. Gee of his appointment.
1t will be necessary for him to qualify
with 81 600 bond.
At this point a letter from Miss
Doty Upton gave the commissioners
a pleasurable thrill. Miss Upton was
under quarantine for some time, for
small pox and her letter to the COM
missioners was to express her appre-
citation of the treatment she received.
She said: please accept my cordial
thanks for your courtesies while |
was in quarantine. Everything was
done to make my cabin pleasant and
comfortable With very best wishes,
am sincerely yours, Doty Upton"
1t is unusual for the commission
ers to receive such manifestations of
good will, and the members of the
board appreciated Miss Tipton's
thoughtfuness as much as she had
appreciated the efforts of the county
officials to make her surroundings
comfortable during her illness.
A communication was read from
NJ. Harrison of Lund, relative to some
needed road repairs in his precinct,
and Mr.. Harrison was authorized,
through the clerk, to get busy and
make the repairs needed. A similar
request for repairs on the Snake val
ley roads was temporarily held up
owing to the lowness of the road
fund. 1t is admitted that consider
able repair work will be needed on
the Snake valley roads, and the COM
missioners will attend to the matter
as soon as expedient.
1t was considered necessary to
turn down the resquest from r. A.
Dean, justice of the peace at Hamil-
ton, that he receive stated salary.
The commissioners took the view
that to grant stated salary in this
instance would establish a bad pre-
cedent.
| The commissioners considered an
offer from VIM. Mcknight to pur-
chase the Pacific reports owned by
the county. There are los volumes
of the reports and the district at
torney was instructed to find out
