pacity of that plant to 40,O0O,OOO pounds a month. During the past two years extensions and alterations were effected which resulted in an increase from about 3O.0OO.OOO pounds per month to 35.O0O,0OO pounds.
 The new smelter in the southwest will cost about s2.OO0.OOO according to preliminary estimates. but no new financing will be undertaken during the current year. The issued capital still stands at but sl0.000.000. Plant and property account at the end of 1912 stood at s11.5OO,0O0 against ST. S00.000 at the end of the first year, 1909. The first constructive step was the erection of copper shelter in Utah to which was added lead plant; then a lead refinery at Chicago was erected, while important additions have been constantly made to the Ra- ritan refining plant.
 While much of this new work has been met from earnings, the company has been a borrower on it's notes which at some future time will be permanently financed.

 "The people of Bisbee cannot i'm agine how we Los Angeles people feel toward this district. Of course every district is for itself first-even so with Los Angeles-Bisbee comes next with us.
 When Charley Clawson, formerly mine superintendent with the Copper Queen, came to Los Angeles he had with him one of the finest collections of ore specimens that had ever seen. This collection was presented to the Bureau of Mines and Oils. An elegant case was bought for the specimens and they were accorded a prominent place in the bureau exhibit.

Vera Cruz, Oct 16.-Evident prep
arations on the part OF small de-
tachment of men under General
Aguilar for an attack last night on
the American outposts around Vera
Cruz have resulted in the strengthen
ing of the American lines.
Some 200 Mexicans are in a posi-
ton about half a mile from the Amer
lean outposts and they have two
mountain guns trained on the Ameri-
can soldiers. Their warlike activity
is attributed in Vera Cruz to over in
diligence in liquor but their boasts
that they were able to inaugurate an
attack that intimately would drive
the Americans out of this port, are
taken more or less seriously on ac-
count of the persistency of the re-
ports that Aguilar will not be able to
restrain himself much longer and
that the Impotence of his men to
enter Vera Cruz is rendering his con-
troll over them doubtful.
Aguilars entire forces is estimated
between 1000 and 5000, with several
pieces of artillery.
