Even though large stocks Of spelter
have gradually accumulated at tho
smelling works, which. in size, were
not equaled even in the closing days of
the panic year of 1907, there is great
reluctance to part with the metal at
present prices, Ore supplies have
fallen off sharply, because the Ions
drawn out decline has caused miners
In most producing sections to suspend
or curtail operations, as a great many
properties are not favored with ores

rule around cents. ST. Louis. More
over. the margin between ore and
spelter in many instances leaves no
profit and frequently an actual loss TO
the smelters whose operating costs
have steadily advanced during the past
year. The spelter on hand has cost
the smelters a great deal more to pro-
duce than can at the present time be
realized for 1t. II Is. therefore, not
surprising that It should be withheld
from the market In the hope that the
time Is not far distant when an I'm

The diamond drill consists of a line
of hollow rods screwed together in
five or ten foot sections, rotated by an
engine through shaft and gearing and
red forward either by a hydraulic
cylinder and piston or by screw
feed. At the lower end of the rods ia
placed bit in which pieces of BLACK
diamond or carbon are set which. as
the rods are rotated, cut an angular
hole in the rock, leaving a center
piece or core" undisturbed Water
Is forced through the rods to keep the
diamonds cool and to ash sway tho
cuttings of the bit The essential fes-
ture Of this method Is the core or sec
tons Of rock, which is formed by the
hollow bit and rod as the drill sd
Vances At intervals. usually after
drilling ten feet. the rods are with.
drawn by means of hosting nechan

This method indicates to the pros

(Easinccring and Mining JournaD

AT the opening of 1918. the edge had
been taken OIL the unprecedented add
vance which marked the closing
months of 1912. Consumers had
bought far beyond their requirements
in order to be protected against a
Sudden falling off in the output of
spelter, which was apprehended on ac-
count of the failure Of the gas supply
in Oklahoma and Kansas The de-
nland had been SO urgent and, as later
ON developed, far beyond current re-
quirements that large contracts for the
importation Of spelter We're placed in
Europe, When 1t became known that
the most important smelters had been
able to secure gas from hitherto UNI
developed districts which would sup
ply continuous operations for some
time to come sudden restriction In
purchases took place and as re-
suit a good portion Of the foreign
speiter was left In the hands Of the
Importers.
I Smeters were fairly well sold out
for nearby shipment However, they
realized the new factors which had
made their appearance in the market.
and were, therefore, anxious to dis
pose of their product as far ahead ~
possible. The pressure to make sales
for future delivery was accumulated
by the liberal consignments OF zinc
ore, the production of which had been
unduly stimulated by the high spelter
prices, so that the accumulation Of
ore stocks in the hands of smeters
we're far beyond normal proportions.
In the meantime, consumers were dis
posed to work up their stocks, and n
situation was thus created by the
cumulative causes above outlined
which made the position of the mar.
ket untenable and explains. in a great
measure, the perpendicular decline
which started with the beginning of
1913,
