INCREASING COPPER OUTPUT

Gradually the copper producers are increasing their scale of operations. Soon after the outbreak of the war |all of the big fellows cut to 50 per cent capacity The metal dropped 10 Il IA cents, but did not stay there long, as the big war demand quickly got under way and it was found nee essary after a few months to increase operations to a 65 per cent capacity basis in order to keep the price from jumping to a dangerously high figure.
 Now in the face of this expanding |output the price has risen to 15 3-4 cents for electrolytic and 16 7-8 cents for Calumet and Hecla lake, with the result that the larger companies lhave once again given orders to turn on a little more steam-this time to at least 75 per cent capacity. In View of the fact that a large number
 of smaller operators have not curtail- ed at all, 1t is safe to say that today
 the output of the mines in this coun- try, regarded as a whole, is proceeding dt duOuI OO per CcnI Ol HUI h1di.
 Never before in the present gener- tation has prime lake copper been able to command premium of al
 most 1 IA cents Der pound over cleo
 trolytic; but this is the fact today.
 The foreign nations are specifying in many of their ammunition orders that
 Calumet and Hecla or Quincy lake copper and none other be used. This has created an extraordinary demand
 for these grades.
 Some conception of the size of the war demand is had when it is
 known that the wire business-an inn
 portant copper consumer-is flat, and
 that many lines of trade using copper
 in greater or less quantity are still depressed. And yet up goes the price Boston News Bureau

The report charges that there is a waste in the conduct of the city administration in Globe. It also recommended that the salaries of the city attorney and police judge be re- duced, the former $1Oe a month and tie latter to $50 a month. It was further suggested that one police man now employed be laid of.

COPPER
Producers Don't Know Where Metal Is Coming From to Keep Down
 Prices

Advices from all centers are to the effect that production of copper Is being carried on at near capacity. Producers frankly confess that in the face of the present demand, they are unable to see where the metal is coming from to keep prices down.
 Brass manufacturers have been free buyers for delivery during the next three months and are very much occupied on export business. Wire manufacturers are operating at about half capacity or little better and the foundry trade is dull although casting copper is becoming difficult to find.

SMEL LTERPROBLEMS STUDIED BY
 EXPERTS
Engineering Party Who Visited the
 Globe District Arrive at Douglas.

Douglas, Arizona, April 2.-E. O.. Elton, an engineer representing the United States bureau of mines, and T. D. Wilson, W. F. Foster and Ed Mulhenberg, who are touring Arizona for the purpose or studying causes, effects and possible remedies for the loss of values in stack fumes, ar rived here yesterday.
 Before coming here the party visit ed Globe, Miami, Inspiration, Clifton and Morenci. They are studying the smelter smoke problem with the idea of determining possibilities of conservation of precious metals which now escape from the big stacks in the form of fumes. Pri- marily its object is not to determine whether or not vegetation is dam aged, although that conclusion has been more or less drawn by Dr. Elton in some instances.
 Metallurgical conditions in the vari- ous districts visited are also being studied for the bureau.
 The party is travelling in an auto mobile, carrying full field equipment, such as tents, cooking utensils, etc. From here the party left for Ray. They will go from there to Jerome and thence into Utah to study simi- lar problems.

GO. HAVE BIG YEAR
 IN 1914
Production from All Properties Amounts to s1,6s2,s24 Pounds of Copper With Net Profit of s7,sss,- 42o.oo.

BISBEE, April 7.-The year 1914 was a great year in copper produc- ton for Phelps Dodge & Co.,, despite the European war and it's demoraliz- ing effect on the copper industry.
 The production of the Copper Queen company and Moctezuma Cop per compayn fell below the totals of 1913 and. 1914, but were nevertheless ahead of every year before 1912.
 The 1914 production for the Phelps Dodge concern was 131, ,662, 1925 pounds as shown by the annual report just issued, not including S.56s,OO0 pounds of Miami concentrates delivered to the company in the form of blister copper.
 Including copper received from out side sources, 188, 8,6S7,37S pounds were sold and delivered by Phelps, Dodge & Co. last year at an average price of 18.57 cents per pound.
 The report shows that sO,97s,ss4 pounds of this copper was sold to the domestic, and 1O7,7Os, ,494 pounds to the foreign trade, and 126,SS5,293 pounds of the total was sold during the first seven months of the year. leaving only about 62.O0O,00o pounds to be sold after the breaking out of the European war.

John McElroy, chairman, whereby re-
turning old soldiers may be quickly
able to locate not only their old COM
