On it's journey to San Francisco the Liberty Bell special train will traverse Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho. Washington, Oregon and California.
 Elaborate arrangements have been made for the journey and everything that will aid in safeguarding the bell from injury has been done. Four policemen from the Philadelphia traf- fic squad will guard the relic until it is again returned to its home.
 At sunrise Monday workmen re- moved the bell from it's case and put it on the special hanger that will sup port 1t across the country. It was wheeled on a truck into Independence Square where patriotic exercises were held. At noon the First Brigade Pennsylvania National Guard escorted the bell to the West Philadelphia sta tion of the Pennsylvania Railroad where it was hoisted on special car. At 3 D. m. the bell train with a party of 26 city councilmen commenced it's journey.
The Cordova daily times., 1915-07-07

The train consists of baggage car, diner, three sleepers, special car for the reception of guests en route, and car for the bell which is at the rear. This Is specially constructed flat car. with an iron railing at the sides and ends. American flags will wave from staffs at each corner and there will be othe. decorations fin American colors.
 Cities traversed in the night will get glimpse of the relic, a system of illumination having been devised that will throw a blaze of light on the bell as it passes through in the darkness.
 Shock absorbers have been installed on the flat car to keep the bell from being jolted. The train crews will be specially picked for their carefulness in starting and stopping trains. The speed limits across the continent will not be less thdh IS miles an hour nor more than 35 miles. The schedule will be rigidly observed so that crowds may not be kept waiting beyond the time appointed for the train to go through their communities.
 There will be no official souvenirs of the journey except those dis tributed by the escorting committee. The committee also refused to make any concessions to moving picture concerns, virtually every such enter prise in the country having applied for the privilege of sending represen- tatives on the trip. The committee, however, purchased a special moving picture machine for it's own use Pic lures will be taken through the jour ney and films will be furnished to pub lie schools without expense. In short the City Council has placed a strict ban upon commercialsm in connec- ton with the trip. The bell will reach Seattle July IA and will arrive in San Francisco Friday night, July 16, and Saturday, July F, will be Liberty Bell Day at the Exposition. Early in the morning the relic will be conveyed to it's place in the Pennsylvania build ing on the Exposition grounds where exercises will be held.
 The bell will leave San Francisco in | November and will return by the Southern route, through Los Angeles. San Diego. Arizona and Texas. The details of the return trip have not yet been completed, but it is virtually cer. tain that the special train will 20 through St. Louis, indianapolis and Cincinnati.

1t is predicted will be producing cop
per at the rate of 100000 pounds
per month by the end of this year. In
spiration Consolidated has produced
in the neighborhood of 100,000.0O0 tons
of commercial ore, and is only sur
passed by Chile Copper and Utah
Copper, both of which are credited
with ore reserves exceeding 100000
900 tons. The ninth and last section
of the company's mills is expected to
go into commission this month.
Inspiration Consolidated, unlike
some of the other porphyries, is en-
titled to the credit of being financed
by Americans. Out of the more than
100000 shares which it is said have
been issued, there are less than 1000
shares held in Europe.
1t Is estimated that the ore bodies
of the company will produce consider
ably more than 1,000,O00,O0O pounds of
copper at cost of cents per pound
Inspiration ranks as the fifth largest
copper proposition in the United
States, and the sixth or seventh larg-
est In the world, and should 1t ever
combine with Anaconda. 1t will be-
come a constituent part of the largest
copper mining and smelling and mer-
chandising business in the world.

Germany, however, means over II per
