THE COPPER KING.
Five or Six Fset of Cooper Ore in the
West Drift.

Harry Ingalls,, secretary and man
aeer Of the Copper King company, OK
hhited this week chunk of copper
ore from the property which would
easily run per cent and stated that II
was a fair sample Gf width Of 5 or G
feet Of ore in Il Winze that has been
started in the west drift. The shoot
had been followed for perhaps 1870
feet. having the appearance of being
the top of an extensive ore shoot. The
increased width developed in q dis
tance of few feet in the winze indi-
Gates that this theory is correct. The
same ore shoot is found in the east
drift also, but not of Is good q grade.
A few men are now employed by the
Copper King and 1t is probable that
arrangements may be made to greatly
increase the force before long.

business associate, Andy DeVlin. have

which are now attracting world wide
attention. The company VIII be
known as the Caledonia and its hold

numerous tracts all favorably located
In various parts of the extensive oil

capital stock of the Caledonia COM

shares have been placed in the treas

The numerous holdings of the COM
pany, all located well within the oil
zone, together with the high standing
and possibility of the promoters,
combine to make the Caledonia an Of

HOWAR1H OPTIMISTIC
BUSINESS REVIVAL
PROMINENT BROKER NOTES LO.
CAL REVIVAL AND EXPECTS
AN IMPROVEMENT.

According to James r. Howarth
head of the well known brokerage
firm that bears his name there is an
apparent revival in the demand for
Coeur dAlene mining stocks, and he
confidently expects the demand to
gradually increase, He points out that
this is always the dull season, hence
if there is a revival now, the end of
the vacation season should witness the
beginning Of a period of genuine ac-
tivity. The Calgary oil excitement for
a time affected the Coeur d'Alene stock
market. but Mr.. Howarth says it is
ence. Considerable Coeur dAlene
money has been invested in oil stocks,
but the excitement is in n measure
over and men who seek oil securities

sbility Of the promoters, Local as
well as outside investors are showing
renewed interest in Coeur dAlene in
NCoillltHlS, anu lut llSitI piittt
stocks are the ones receiving most
attention.
Looks for General Business Improve
nent.
Mr.. HoWarth expects immediate and
lasting benefits to follow the enact
ment of the antitrust measures now
before congress and which the presi-
dent insists shall be passed before
congress adjourns. He takes the view
that the agitation, the threat of leg
islation. and the uncertainty that ne
cessarily follows, are more damaging
to business than any law that can be
passed. He believes, therefore, that
the measures being pushed by the
president will place business on a set
tied basis, stop the agitation and
mark the beginning Of period Of gen
eral prosperity, in which the Cocur
d'Alene district will fully share.

HAYWARD & cLARk'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 9.-Liverpool
reflected anticipation of a large Census
report by weakness in futures, but the
large sales, total $4,000 bales show bull
ish spot conditions. The market ad
vanced sharply on learning the ginning
report, closing Is points higher on the
day English spot buyers received large
spot orders and further cables to the
effect that mills are poorly supplied.
The Census gave 13,333,074 ginned to
January l, comparing with IL, 907 405 last
year and 14,317.002 season before last.
This is 100000 bales for the period from
December 10 to January |. against 49,
600 bales last season and $3.50 the
season before. Ginnings during the two
December periods decreased this season
426, 900 bales, against a decrease last
season Of only 49, 900 bales. This is a
strong showing In support of the claim
that this crop Is being passed through
the gins unusually rapidly and in favor
of the smaller crop estimates.
The Census was bullish surprise for
the market. which advanced about 30
points in the early trading. Combined
with the improving tone of the financial
markets the road now seems clear for
the bullish conditions in cotton to as
sert themselves in the prive movement
Spot holders should feel encoura ged
in their position.

Grain Notes

The Chicago Inter Ocean says:
Opinions on wheat last night were
mixed. Bears said the break late in
the day indicated to them that the
market was beginning to weaken and
that should corn decline they expected
wheat to follow. Bull houses said they
saw no inherent weakness, despite the
drop in prices.
Sentiment in corn is bearish There
is nothing in the previous history of
the grain trade that compares with that
of the present. Winnipeg sent A de
NAL of the report that the Manitoba
Legislature has passed resolutions IA
voring free wheat"
Bartlett Frazier Co. says: wheat
We look for a steady market to-day
and with any cessation of the weakness
in corn and think prices would rally.
"Corn-We see nothing to cause any
rally, although there may be some Gov
ering over the weekend The situa-
tion looks extremely heavy.
"Oats-We don't believe that any ad-
vance of moment can be accomplished
and prefer the selling side on all little
rallies.

utive, John Papa, c. G. Hoppe
George Mau, Herman Sleinichen,
Max ODpenheim, DR.. VanTrump and

will be aided in their purchases of
lands, and every inducement will be
offered them to settle.
