Copper

A substantial decrease in copper stocks is predicted for the month of March, this estimate being based on extraordinarily large exports for the month-probably well in excess of S0,000,00O lbs. Cable advices from European copper interests state that European consumption is of a gen. uine character, and that the decrease in stocks and the metal there con- tinues in the face of heavy exports from America.
 Some copper interest are already predicting a very substantial in- crease in the price of the metal this summer, with revival in the de- mand from this country from the present sub-normal deliveries of 6E to 15 per cent.

The Deal Fell Throuoh

A mining deal has been pending for a property within fifty miles of Phoenix, the consideration being about $500,000. The intending pur- chasers after inspecting the hold ings offered to deposit $250,O00 for one-half interest same to be eX- pended in development work and to provide another $25O,OOO for 40 per cent of the other half interest, but the owner would not consent to the conditions and the deed fell through. The proposition was an exceedingly favorable one but it didn't impress the owner that way.

Arizona Copper

The annual report of the Arizona Copper Company for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1913, shows a balance of s5S3,4SO above the divi- den requirements of that period. The company produced 34,230,000 pounds of copper which compares with 3S,- 150,00O pounds in the preceding year which was a high record. Net pro- fits were $1,751,O6O or about s65O,- 900 less than in 1912.
 The company expended s1,S34 ,29C on its new smelter during the year It was thought that s2,625,00 would be sufficient to build this plant, but it is now found that an additional $515,000 was necessary. The plant is completed with the exception of the No. 6 concentrator The ore last year yielded SS.76 pounds of copper per ton, against 41.15 pounds in the previous year.

 Congress a year ago, in the pub liz buildings bill authorized a new home for the bureau of mines to cost $5OO,O00. It is now expected that congress, in it's present session will make a specific appropriation so that construction work may begin. It is hoped that contracts may be let by July l. The director is hope full that the buildings may be con- pleted in the fall of 1914, when they will be dedicated with suitable cere- mony, including a second national mine safety demonstration, similar to that held at Pittsburg, 1911.

the duchess lived separated from her
husband, and received Humbert every
evening at a certain hour.

pointed commission to perform the same task.
The Mayor wrote one of his pithy letters to this
commission. which consisted of r. A. c. Smith,
chairman; Louis E. Miller, Morris D. Waldman'
Michael Furst and William A. Cokeley, saying:
"The number of pushcarts in some localities
seriously interrupts traffic on the streets The
litter of them also keeps the streets dirty. Their
business also interferes with the business of
neighboring shopkeepers, who pay rents. In
many cases, however, these pushcart proprietors
are paying large rent to abutting land owners for
permission to have their pushcarts stand there.
81 see no reason why this should be so. Should
it be permitted to continue? Are there too many
pushcarts? Should they continue in the streets
or should the city take them off the streets and
provide markets or sheltered places for them to
stand IN? 1t is for you to open UP the whole
subject"
