Moffett, Okla, Nov. 29.-That Eli
Jones, after shooting and killing his
wife in his home, was murdered by
an unknown person, was the verdict
returned by a coroner's jury.
Jones shot his wife in the presence
of his II children. The children fled
to the home Of a neighbOr and gave
the alarm. When neighbors reached
the scene, Jones was found dead with
two bullet wounds in his head.
Physicians testified at the inquest
that the bullets had penetrated Jones's
head from opposite directions and that
either bullet would have caused in
slant death, thus precluding a theory

UNION CHIEF DOING
WORK ECONOMICALLY
August Development Was
Done at Low Cost of Six
Dollars Per Foot.

Shareholders OF the Union Chief COM
pany will appreoia te the determination Of
the officials to have each month de-
tailed report submitted to the Salt Lake
offices. In which will be contained infor-
nation showing exactly what has been
done and the cost of everything. by
which each cent expended will be shown
General Manager G. L.. Bemis stated on
Thursday that the August report has been
submitted and II discloses the fact that
during that month the total development
work consisted of 1b2 feet OF drifts,
raises and winZes and that tho cost per
foot, including everything, was slightly
less than S6 This will prove very graft
flying 10 those interested, for 1t demon
strates that the management Is conserv-
ing the surplus while doing the best sort
of underground effort.
Seven men are on the payroll at the
present time. and they are pushing the
work ahead at points where the prospects
are considered the brightest by Mr..
Benis and associates for early and sub
stantial results. This work Is directed
from the lower tunnel and once ore OF
commercial character is disclosed the
company Will have abundant stopping ter
ritory at its disposal. Ore production
should be conducted as economically as
the development work at this time
Mr.. Bems is confident OF good results,
end he has what he considers the combl-
nation to ore bodies which Is being strict
ly followed with no waste OF time or
energy.

COPPER MARKET IS
GAINING EACH DAY
Asking Price Thursday Was
Sixteen and One-half
Cents Per Pound.

Sales OF electrolytic copper at 1863 cents
4 pound were reported on Thursday from
the east. while the leading agencies ele-
waited their asking price to 1ss cents
There was little or no metal offered at
less than the latter figure. and the agen-
cies apparently stand ready to elevate
their price again once the sale list re-
cords the l65-cent mark. Seventeen
cent copper is as confidently predicted
now as 16-cent copper was at the time
the metal WAS below IL cents pound
several weeks ago. and with stocks linn
tied moro today than they were in 1919
there is no reason why the 17-oent mark
should not be obtained, as for the last
seven months of 1912 copper averaged
higher than II cents a pound and av-
eraged 1884 cents for the entire twelve
months.
The August figures Of the American
Copper Producers association Will be re-
leased on Monday and While II never mas
proved safe to prophesy in regard 10
these association figures there Is pre-
ponderance of opinion TO the effect that
the decrease in domestic visible stocks
will be over the 10000, 900 pound point
Stocks in the United States on Septem-
Der / are expected to be as low as Ao,-
600, 600 pounds by many. while deliveries
for consumption are expected 10 exceed
the 1877 6s4,I55 pounds gained during, jury.
Production in July was materially larger
than that Of June. While the August pro"
ductjon is expected 10 be less than July.
Producers of copper have much over
which TO rejoice. while the lead. silver
and zinc producer has equally as muGn
to be thankful for. There Is money IN
taking all the advantage of the markets
for their metal product possible.

INTER- IN MONTANA
is BEING EXPLAINED

Last year r. W. Richards OF the United
State geological survey visited a inter
deposit on Camp creek. near Melrose,
Mont, said to have been discovered by
r. c. Moore OF Melrose While the de-
posit may not prove OF economic impor
tance. 1t is interesting in that II affords
another example Of nitrate deposit IN
a region having fairly abundant rain
fall.
The value of the deposit cannot be
safely estimated from the data which
have been collected. Further eNplora-
ton Is needed TO determine whether or
not the potash and soda nitrates are In
