According 10 returns received BY the

January 12, 1914. Il is estimated by Err
nest F. Burchard that tae quantity Of
Portland cement manufactured IN the
United States In 1913 was approximate
20. 40s. 900 barrels, compared with s2.43s..
0es barrels In 1912. an increase Of about
o. 9ST, 800 barrels, or i3 per cent The es-
umated shipments Of Portland csment
during 1918 were ssa53. 900 barrels. COM
pared with S5.012,55s barrels in 1912. an
Increase OF about 3.S40. 900 barrels, or 40
of production over shipments stocks OF
cement at the mills apparently increased
more than AS per cent, or nom f,Sllse
barrels in 1912 TO 1885, 900 barrels at
the close of 1913. In 1919 the relations
between production and shipments were
the reverse Of those for 1912. when ship
nents exceeded production 1t may be
necessary to revise considerably the es-
Inmates OF stocks. but II is believed that
these figures for production and Snip
ments are very close to those that Will
be shown by conplets returns from, all

Although few definite statements as to
selling prices are at hand, It Is evident
that the average value per barrel was ap-
preeiably higher than In 1912. Increase
Of 10 to 26 cents a barrel are reported
from several plants In the central and

Superintendent's Report.

Our present resources consist OF cop
per deposit beneath and adjacent to our
old 100 stope and block OF ground be-
tween the 100 and 1901 foot levels. From
these sources a small tonnage may be OK
pected While some zinc could be mined
at profit l would advise awaiting a
higher market.
Our prospective area comprises the
south end of our property. The ore-bear-
ing channels that produced our former
ore bodies unques,ionably pass through
this ground. On the 1500-foot level, de-
velopment proves our northwest territory,
all ore bearing. and ] predict an ore body
Of commercial grade and size will be
found here In blocks OF undeveloped
ground adjacent 20 our former ore bodies,
we have a good prospective territory.
In conclusion. ] wish to state that while
a great deal of our past years work has
been OF a negative character, we have
placed in sight an immense tonnage of
low grade zinc ore that will prove fu-
ture asset to the mine We have also
demonstrated ore-bearinG channels other
than those that have been productice in
the past
I am confident that the development of
the areas mentioned above will place the
Lower Mammoth again In the rank OF
active Tlntic producers.

From Logan & Bryan. New York
Under the stimulus OF n successful bond
sale on the part Of the state OF New

ket advanced vigorously despite heavy
selling throughout today's session. Heavy
short covering was In progress and. In

message on the whole appeared to be
favorab bic and little concern was exhibited
over the well-defined prospects of further
legislation on matters which some
months ago produced quite little con-
cern-
Advices from abroad suggested that a
substantial reduction in the English bank
rate will probably be made on Thurs
day. and financial conditions in Paris
were credited as being on the mend. ac-
cording to reports from that quarter
We are apparently in the midst of a
market movement which has as Its aim
the discounting Of an increase In freight
rates TO the roads operating IN eastern
territory, as well, perhaps. as return
TO more normal state of affairs In COM
mercial and industrial lines. The fact
that public confidence is being restored
vestors for high-gred stocks and bonds
but evens despite all of the foregoing
Il is not improbable that after the Vul-
nerabie portion OF the short interest has
been forced TO cover the stock list Will
enjoy a good-sized reaction. We believe
the corner has been turned and the gen.
eral trend OF security prices for an in
definite period will be upward, but we
hesitate TO advocate purchases on sharp
advances.
From Paine. Webber & Co. BOSTON,
The local market for coppers is con-
tlnuHlly getting more active and broader
speculative interest having greatly in
creased. and the market today was bet
ter sustained than u has been for two or
three years. All profit-taklng sales were
ca silly absorbed by new buyers and the
close showed higher prices for the day
We have been through long period OF
pessimisnn, but sentiment Is rapidly
changing. and II looks as il 1914 would
be a year OF recuperation and advancing
prices all through the list.
From the Gallagher Curb Letter New
York-Advances were the rule through
out the list today. OH shares, industrials
and the mining list generally all showed
better today and upward price changes
throughout the session, A feature Of note
was the activity and strength Of the
